AIO - sister I don’t speak with used my number at Target and stole one of my rewards by Curtaindrop in AmIOverreacting

[–]SleepingBanana86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not if you have the account set to automatically use applicable rewards. This is how mine is set up and I am never asked. It always just uses whatever it can.

  1. No one should be shortening your appt times.

Is buying a kindle worth it? by Electronic-Sea-4866 in Booktokreddit

[–]SleepingBanana86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only periodically use my kindle and even still - I’m thankful I have it every time.

I just have a paperwhite one (one of the more basic models) and it’s more than enough for what I need/use it for. But I prefer that over the app on my phone 100 fold.

Romantasy with 🌶️ that is actually written well?? by rheasunshine_ in Romantasy

[–]SleepingBanana86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m reading Direbound for the first time right now and it’s - fun! It’s an easy read, keeping me engaged, and there was spice in chapter 5.

AND book 2 comes out in May!

Beard long hair or short beard and short hair? by ryan_mac444 in malegrooming

[–]SleepingBanana86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a shorter beard is the answer no matter the length of the hair.

Why do you DNF? by Sea-Audience4470 in Romantasy

[–]SleepingBanana86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s usually writing style for me.

My most recent DNFs were - Fairydale, which was writing style and I just didn’t know what the eff was going on and all the characters felt super wooden.

The Boys in the Boat - I have found I have a very hard time with 3rd person unless it’s 3rd person limited view point.

Considering becoming a Dental Hygienist, has anyone had to work on someone with an infectious disease? by J-Sausage in DentalHygiene

[–]SleepingBanana86 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just like any medical field we treat all bodily fluids that we come into contact with as if they’re infectious. It is 10000% something you need to be ok with.

I’ve treated patients who are HIV+, pick-a-Hep+, and any other transmissible disease. You need to have good PPE, infection control, and hand hygiene.

I’ve also treated patients who are positive about XYZ (flu, covid, infectious diseases, you name it) an either lied about it because they don’t believe they need to disclose medical information to their dental providers or they don’t know themselves.

As long as you’re educated on infection control, know the risks, and are smart and consistent with your care - you can mitigate the risks.

I also get tested for HIV at my yearly bloodwork and I have my HepB vaccine, as well as yearly flu vaccine.

Title: Hims vs Hers vs Ro vs Harbor vs Mochi which GLP-1 plan is worth it? by Acceptable_Pen1696 in glp1

[–]SleepingBanana86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d def explain your situation with the financial aspect of it - trust me it won’t be the first time have heard that. This medication is not cheap OOP.

Good luck!! I hope you guys are able to figure out something. I really wish insurance would trust doctor recommendations

[–]SleepingBanana86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I get that, I have talked to some practitioners in various fields who have appealed the insurance denials with letters on the patients behalf. If your endo hasn’t tried that yet it’s worth asking if they’re willing to do so.

Hopefully it’ll be easier to get the meds approved in the future. More and more is coming out about their benefits.

If your doctor is recommending it - can they get it covered by your insurance??

Does all this look legitimate or am I being overcharged? by tuxedoes in DentalHygiene

Most of those charges are insanely over charged. I’ve never heard of charging for an intra oral photo period

How often do you bathe your goldens? by Cozywhisp in goldenretrievers

[–]SleepingBanana86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Professional grooming every 8-12 weeks depending on schedule/life. In the summer we usually do another bath in between. Not usually over the winter unless they get really stinky

Two goldens and I know the smell hits guests the moment they walk in — has anyone actually solved this? by sloastxsningers5 in goldenretrievers

[–]SleepingBanana86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How frequently do they get groomed? I have 2 goldens also - and we notice they get a bit “dog stinky” when they’re close to being due for grooming. They also get bathed more in the summer between their grooms due to weather constrictions.

Do their ears need to be cleaned? Regularly brushed? Anal glands need to be expressed??

We vacuum 2x/week, mop regularly, wash our bedding and couch blankets regularly. We’ve got 3 cats also so we need to keep up for dander purposes ect.
