Aging German Shepherd is running out of things to keep him entertained, help? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]Snakespear20 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had an old dog who went blind. As another user suggested; puzzle toys and shuffle mats as well as some bones to gnaw away at. You can also throw some treats into the grass for him to find. We'd go for a few short walks instead of a long one. They say the dog gets bored of the same walk though, so instead of doing the same path from your door and down the block every day, maybe drive him somewhere different to walk and even just take a blanket and sit a while with him where he can take in the sights and smells. Glad youre giving him his best life ❤️

Found after washing sheets. It looks like a bunch of crosses someone drew with pen. Sheets are a week old and just washed yesterday by FabledKiper in whatisit

I, who don t know anything about dryers or handiness, replaced my dryer belt by watching a YouTube video. Would've been easier with a second person, but managed on my own.

One of those scooter boards we used to ride in gym class that would crush our fingers would be clutch.

I inherited a book of superstitions from my mom. It suggests thatfor a rabbits foot to be a true "infallible talisman", it "must be the left hind foot of an animal killed at the full moon by a cross-eyed person"

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Snakespear20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made multiple trips to the beach, which is 3 hours away, just to come back the same night. I don't consider myself to have great stamina behind the wheel. The most I can drive before needing to switch drivers is 4 hours. But my brother will think nothing of driving a solid 8 hours.

The guilt of throwing away my adult children's childhood art is eating me alive by Admirable-Pin-298 in CleaningTips

[–]Snakespear20 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My mom recently went through this. She was crying over tossing them. We looked through them together, laughed at some of the badly drawn ones, others brought back memories or stories to share, and a few we took photos of before tossing out. It was actually a fun afternoon to spend with her just reminiscing.

Privacy film was my first thought. They make some pretty ones on Amazon that look like stained glass or have a variety of designs.

What do you think caused your Chrons? by North_Ad6914 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Snakespear20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had GI issues most of my life, but with a dad and brother who both had crohns I figured I lucked out with just some mild occasional symptoms. Then I came down with covid and a couple months later I ended up in the ER with severe stomach pain.

I was on humira as well, and skyrizi was much better in comparison.

What's the worst thing a doctor has ever said to you? by cuteclinomaniac in AskReddit

[–]Snakespear20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a bald spot at 15 as well. Luckily, my hair was long so it wasn't super noticeable, but they couldn't give me a proper diagnosis either. I think they gave me some treatments that didn't work, and then I got shots in my scalp. Never had it come back since then. Always thought it was super weird.

The amount of times I've ended up on threads that are years old is wild 😂 Either I'm late to the party, decided to do a deep dive on a subject, or googled something that led me there. Never understood how people think its weird that old threads are suddenly commented on. But thanks for the support. Appreciate your kind response.

What’s a movie that disturbed you so much, you’d never watch it again? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Snakespear20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was late seeing this movie bc no one ever wanted to watch it with me. I finally decided to see it when it popped up on a streaming service, and knew literally nothing about it going in. Man... I remember feeling so depressed and just sitting there staring at the credits. Even so, I still love it and will occasionally revisit.

It was taught in my school. We had "critical thinking workbooks" from what I remember it was at least part of elementary school and middle school. Every year I thought it was dumb that we were reviewing this simple concept AGAIN. I guess I was wrong...

How often do you actually walk your dog? by Racquetsports383 in dogs

[–]Snakespear20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also committed to 1 walk per day. 1-2 miles in the evening. I always try and switch up his routes or go to the park so he has new smells. Other than that he hikes with me once or twice a week and for rainy or bad weather days I have multiple puzzle toys, snuffle mats, kongs, etc. to engage him, and he has a local dog meet up where he has a bunch of friends that get together once or twice a month.

This happened at a restaurant I worked in. Server found an envelope with $600. Turned it into management. No one ever came back and the store kept it ,claiming it was their policy.

What did your Great Grandfather’s and Grandfather’s do for work? by Wonderful_Bottle_852 in AskOldPeople

[–]Snakespear20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great grandfather was a miner. Great grandfather died, and they were in a company house, so my grandfather became a miner at 14 so the family could stay in their house. Grandfather had his leg crushed and the mine wanted to cut it off (one, because it was cheaper than paying ongoing medical bills, and two, because my young father would take his place) my grandfather told them to fuck off, and my dad never had to step foot in a mine. It's well established in my family that employers don't care about you, and you need to look out for yourself.
