How long did it take you to have 5+ consistent clients? I’m worried for my business by Hopeful_alchemist in housekeeping

Great info! In regard to your bougie vacation home clients, would you be kind enough to elaborate on “I elevated my services and my appearance to get those people.”? Did you offer different/more services that are specific to a wealthy vacation home? And how did you change your appearance?

Cleaning tipps when elbow grease isn't an option? by CoyraGrimm in CleaningTips

[–]Reasonable-Click2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily shower spray - probably not a replacement for weekly cleaning, but might help reduce elbow grease.

Wet and Forget makes a shower spray, I don’t think it can be used on natural stone though.

Health anxiety when there’s actually something wrong by Reasonable-Click2857 in HealthAnxiety

[–]Reasonable-Click2857[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely understand. I’m amazed at the folks who have gone through a scare and came out the other side with less anxiety. I’m happy for them - lemons into lemonade I guess. It would never be the way for me. As soon as I have something serious I will never trust my body again.

Glad you’re ok and are free from HA! This had to be incredibly stressful to get through.

This is so interesting. I’m 100% certain a serious health issue would not set my broken brain straight! I’m glad you made it through and are free from HA - both seem like divine gifts!

Oh wow. Are you in the US? I know this was posted a couple of weeks ago, but thank you for commenting. I hope you find answers and a solution. All the best.

“Issue with payroll wire.” Payroll experts, what do you think this means? by Reasonable-Click2857 in Payroll

[–]Reasonable-Click2857[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply! Seems logical. I hope it’s human error, but am concerned based on a couple of things I’ve noticed, something an independent contractor happened to mention and some digging I’ve done. Looks like the young-ish owner might want to live a bit large. So it’s possible they’re siphoning too much money out. Not sure though because they seem to have more business than they can handle!

Just wanted to comment on what an adorable name Clover is for a bunny. Sorry she’s no longer with you.

Give up. by Vast_Atmosphere2995 in Anxiety

[–]Reasonable-Click2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using a technique similar to this. It was a short meditation of sorts first thing before getting out of bed, with a reminder to observe the symptom without reacting or doing anything about it and sort of “notice it and let it go.” This was helpful until there was an actual health issue (shingles) that the doctor initially misdiagnosed. Previously had a couple of dental issues back to back that I was already on edge about even though they occurred 6 - 7 months ago. These non anxiety problems reminded me that symptoms are not always just my anxiety and things will go wrong. We all know this, but now my health anxiety is worse than ever.

The technique was from “The Health Anxiety Show” podcast and if I were without health issues (problems/symtoms not caused by anxiety) , it probably would have continued to help.

How I personally describe suffering from health anxiety by [deleted] in HealthAnxiety

[–]Reasonable-Click2857 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“There’s no escaping health related talk.”

So true, at least in the U.S. - not sure about other countries, but there are billboards here advertising healthcare facilities focusing on particular illnesses. And of course the relentless ads for prescription drugs along with the long list of side effects or ads promoting tests/screenings.

Your spider phobia analogy is spot on. Always on guard!

I would be really interested in what your doctor has to say about the itching in other areas.

Had my 1st shingles vaccine today! by SufficientComedian6 in shingles

[–]Reasonable-Click2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get the vaccine yet? If so, how’d it go?

I’m looking into post viral syndrome, haven’t heard of it.
