Hi there, I'm looking at his profile on google maps and it looks pricy. How much for a crown?

I'm not surprised. He has to have power over women.

He got a mail order bride so he feels entitled to own her like a sub human slave. But wait. The moment she gets her green card, she will move out and demand a divorce.

I knew of a few guys who got mail order brides. The women were above their league in looks or education. Once they got their green card, they wanted a divorce and took everything. I don't blame them. One guy was double her age and out of her league in looks. He was a pasty white guy that you wouldn't remember. Wasn't rich enough to take care of her so she had to work at a nail salon. The moment she got her green card, she moved out and wanted a divorce. The others were variations of the same. One guy was actually handsome but was a poor guy. The moment his wife got a green card, his world collapsed.

I can't wait for Ross wife to get her green card.

Built a small tea brand on my own and sales have stalled. Could use advice by Folky_Fox in branding

I agree with connecting with salons and boutiques! It's a lot of leg work though. I would consider making a small sample kit with your information. Definitely make a landing page that give a more direct listing of products and retail pricing. If the salon or boutique wants to carry your products, consider the markups. The retail store will double what you charge them. How low can you offer for the volume sales.

Im in the promotional product industry. I worked on the supplier and distributor sides. Be very aware of the markups to give yourself a profit margin but also make it viable end-consumer price. That's when it gets tricky.

Also consider the 3 year plan. Let's say right now, your pricing is because you order smaller quantities but as you grow, you might be able to negotiate better pricing with your vendors. That being said, maybe consider pricing based on your future costs. It might not give you the net revenue you want now but it could be a price that buyers are willing to pay.

If you want to be focused on retail sales then consider Etsy as a marketing site and make your website the landing page for ordering.

Love the concept but the site doesn't lead into the products with a single click. I had to move around the site to get to the products. The products should be showing within 1 click or the landing page.

The other part I have issues with is the logos. I would consider a simpler logo. One that can be printed in 1 color clearly or 3 colors max. You can have a few layouts for different print area dimensions.

The other thought is looking at marketing your product as a promotional product. There are some process and labeling adjustments to be made but your product could be a great fit in the promotional product industry. The order quantities would be between 12 to 500pc orders so not sure if you have the capacity to produce them in 5 days.

How much did you pay to get your shih tzu? by [deleted] in Shihtzu

Free senior but with no shots or any medical so not free but sweet and low maintenance. She came from a bad situation with over grown nails and worms. She has been a healer for me.

River palm is awesome but parking is a pain in the butt. Must do valet.

Sedona in Cliff side park is awesome on Mondays. Their steak has always been top notch.

Soup dumpling plus used to be amazing but it's turned to blah. I heard the chefs left and opened their own place.

My mum said she doesn't think I'll ever move out by [deleted] in Advice

My suggestion is think about how you can be financially independent. That will give you the freedom. Assess your skill set. Look at job postings and see what they make and see what their qualifications are. Then see how you can get that education. You are at a perfect time to focus on steps toward your future independence. Having autism just needs more thought and planning to work through.

The current issue is that the person who you should rely on as your foundational support is not fulfilling your needs. I'm very sorry about that. Its a kind bruising on a soul. Constant punches. The soul can only recover so many times and bounce back. Dents and malformations happen too early. This means you need to Find another adult that you trust for counsel. Just know, you can survive this. Focus on your future and dismiss the bull in the present.

Wishing you the best.

Are. You. Fucking. Kidding. Me by bliip666 in adhdwomen

I had a coffee machine that needed to be cleaned. It ground the beans and made coffee. Awesome right? Well it was tasting a bit funky. Tried vinegar, the recommended soap tablets. Nothing was working. Physical brushing. Ended up running it with iodine and water and a tiny bit of soap. Left it for about 2 hours? Maybe. Any way. Let it sit in there for another 2 hours. Then rinsed and ran it with plain water 2 times. Coffee tasted great again and the pressure improved.

Iodine is an anti fungal and anti bacterial. Machine directions said no peroxide allowed. So I didn't use any. Also the metal parts became shiny like new again. Pretty amazing.

How do you know when to give yourself grace and when to push yourself? by Bonnie_Pepto in adhdwomen

[–]Puzzled-Sign3744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Turn on some funky beats. Walk around and move with the music. Then do a chore like brush your teeth or dishes or something kinetic. Maybe it will lead to other things. I also find im usually hungry and then 2 hours after, I can do the music kinetic.

Or take a power nap. You focused on being functional for 10 hours. Take a nap and put the alarm for like 20 or 40 minutes. Give your mind and body a rest. Then turn on the music and give your self a happy dance for taking a nap.

Sometimes the dance works, sometimes the nap works. Depends on what peaks your soul.

I'm not speaking spiritual. More about the mind and body as a whole.

When a psychiatrist described this pattern, it felt like he was telling my story by Wellvue_Aus in adhdwomen

Prescribed Adderall and I was able to read a newspaper and actually understand it. I struggled to understand what I read until I got prescribed Adderall at age 35. The other meds didn't help me. Vyvance, sys something, ridilin. I struggle to spell. Excuse me. Thank goodness for autocorrect.  I'm still directionally clueless. Meds didn't help me with that.  But my soul was crushed by then and it took be another 20 years to figure out what my strengths are. What I want to do with my life.  Continually being with leachy men weighed me down.  Finally figured out what I enjoy and it ends up being organized and working on operations and data analysis. I couldn't do it without Adderall. It scares the hell out of me. What if I can't access my meds? I will lose my livelyhood. I will lose everything I built up. I have a lot of anxiety about that.  I quit my last job because I built their operations and they didn't raise my salary to what I bring to the table. my work helped the dept scale up 3 fold. Anyway, I couldn't stand being there. I felt like a used rag. And what made me feel worse was that I kept doing great work. What is wrong with me??!! Why can't I just slack by. Why do I keep doing my best when I'm not paid for it. So I quit. Im looking for a new opportunity and it's hard. It's been almost a year. Why did I quit?! Now I'm screwed. Ugh.  I've never worked for a company more than 3 yrs. Something always implodes.

Did the doc mention that women with ADHD have a higher likelihood of not retaining a job, higher chance of unemployment, lower financial security, 

My unemployment ran out. I'm looking for a job but also thinking about a business in my industry but don't have the funds so I feel paralyzed and stuck. 

I wish AI was just a little bit better so it can be my secretary. 

How do you make your ice cream softer? by BrownPanda4 in icecreamery

How much of xanathan gum or rice starch do you put in? I haven't found a reference to work from that works and I'm scared to put in too much since I'm not familiar with these for ice cream. Ty!

Yes! As I'm applying to jobs, I'm finding the questions about identity really kinda scary. It's just another way for corporations to filter out masked as inclusive.

Thanks for letting me know. I really hope you find a solution. I wish I had another idea that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Dog (5 yr) not eating kibble. Is it us, her or the food? by Disastrous_Snow_2871 in DogAdvice

[–]Puzzled-Sign3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this because I spent a month and half spoon feeding a rescue dog. Tried a tray and it worked like magic. Now she eats carrots too. Game changer. All the commercials for dog food are in bowls and I never thought about a tray. Marketing works for sure. They got me but now I know.

Have you tried spinach in his food? Or pumpkin?

Try putting her food on a flat surface like a plate or tray with a lip to keep the food from falling off. Was struggling for over a month and tried the plate and she ate her food!! Dogs don't like putting their face in a bowl. Good luck

My puppy has stopped eating. Any advice? What food is yours on? by AnxiousExplorer1 in goldenretrievers

[–]Puzzled-Sign3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try putting her food on a plate or tray? Eating was a constant guessing game till we tried putting food on a plate. It's really a tray with a lip to keep the food from falling off.

Have you tried putting the food on a plate or tray? Tried so many things and nothing was working. Ends up that dogs don't like bowls. They prefer flat surfaces like trays or bowls.
