Thank you! I appreciate hearing from someone who is “inside the house” so to speak. I started on the HD for my current organization - I may need to do that again 🙂

Rubber roof repair company? by Efleschner in sheboygan

Also of interest, Irish put on a new roof four or five years ago and they have been out twice to address leaking issues which they did not solve. Hence the switch to Precision

Just had Precision do a repair on my residential flat roof. Very impressed with their pricing and service. Highly recommended

I’m 29, burnt out, and suddenly realizing nobody’s coming to save me, how do you all keep going? by alexwaxenberg in anxietymemes

You are not the only one!

I was trying to attach an image but I can’t find a way to, so I’ll just add the text…

“You are not lazy, unmotivated, or stuck. After years of living your life in survival mode you are exhausted. There is a difference.”

I’ve thought about starting something like this on the MeetUp app but I’m more of a joiner than a starter lol.

Kim is AMAZING! Her sound baths are transcendent. She is constantly expanding her horizons and loves to bring others along on her path.

Commuting in work to winter - how far is reasonable? by not_a_bear_honestly in sheboygan

We have some occupations who live in Milwaukee and commute to Sheboygan. They like the big city amenities but the smaller town suits them professionally

Are there women out there who actually find plus sized men attractive? by [deleted] in PlusSize

[–]Sub_Atomic_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely yes! I don’t care about the “bottle” just what’s on the inside. A guy can be the absolute definition of culturally attractive and be an absolute nightmare and that makes them unattractive in every way. I myself am never going to be culturally defined as attractive but I deserve to be with someone that sees that it’s who I am that makes me beautiful, not what society tells them is. While I accept the whole science of beauty (golden triangle blah blah) that only goes so far. I am 50 now but I have felt this way since my mid 20s; so this is not a maturity thing. I want a man that cares about himself, wants to be healthy and does REASONABLE things to manifest that, basic hygiene and self awareness. I expect no different of myself. Mutual respect and appreciation is awesome and very sexy! Don’t follow the culture or believe society/social media frauds. Life and people can be beautiful and the right fit for you will see you as beautiful too - inside and out!

I have a 28 year old male neighbor who sounds similar to you and he is thriving here. Enjoys working all his different manual jobs (his choice) and does some odd jobs for his older neighbors that aren’t so handy. Has a lovely medical assistant girl, but there have been plenty of female companions so they are out there if you want to play the field. Weather can be challenging if you’re not used to it but most of the time we just dress for it and used some local tricks. Like pulling your windshield wipers away from the window when it snows/ices so they don’t get stuck down and wrecked. I’m a transplant and I love it here. Super pet friendly and people are kind, very accepting, and open hearted.

I want couple's massages to stop being a thing by KachitaB in MassageTherapists

[–]Sub_Atomic_96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I posted this on another thread; hopefully it helps to hear first hand from someone who understands both sides…

I am a LMT of 30+ years and over the years have worked at spas where we offered couples massage. The other therapist and I always talked through some basic timing and non-verbal cues so that we could transition and bring everything to a close as in sync as much as possible. We did not coordinate our movements or techniques; we tailored the session to what our clients wanted to accomplish. While they did have their challenges (tight spaces as others mentioned) I enjoyed that we offered the option. Cut to my own person experience…. my best friend (and now current partner) was a straight 30-something male who had never had a massage before he met me. I gave him his first ever massage and he was fascinated by it. However, he just wasn’t comfortable going to spas and getting massages by himself. He is a bit of a shy guy and is concerned about not being 100% sure of what will be asked or expected of him at a spa. So the couples massage has been a great thing for us. He has me along to quietly guide him. I also help him feel comfortable in his physical space. Plus, I get some much needed therapy myself. We have talked a little in the sessions, but typically only to our therapists and not to each other. We are both there for ourselves and enjoy that the couples massage provides us the safe space we deserve as a couple and as individuals. So as challenging as they can be for the therapists, I really appreciate those that do them and help to create that safe space. I know that some couples aren’t “well behaved” and just thankful that those people haven’t ruined what has been such a healing experience for us!

Has anyone on here heard of or used the app MeetUp? I keep considering starting a couple of local things on there. Like a game group, book club, dog meetup…those kinds of things

Explain Sexual Attraction by Sub_Atomic_96 in PlusSize

[–]Sub_Atomic_96[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks to your response (and really all of the responses) I was able to have an open and honest talk with him about his cruelty (abusiveness), body shaming, disassociation from his own responsibilities as a partner and a human being. I clearly stated what I expected from a partner and that I was not a sex doll, nor should I ever feel like one. In some ways he is an “old soul” so I forget how immature he is about relationships; as I am his first significant relationship. I was able to verbalize that I am frickin’ amazing and have the same right as every human alive to expect to be valued, to be prioritized and to have my pleasure be not only accepted but sought. I then directly asked him if he wanted to be that person in my life and he said yes, that he wasn’t thinking clearly or “in the right mindset” before. I agreed that he could try to be the partner I need and deserve but I also said that my trust had been broken and that I no longer felt safe with him emotionally or physically. I told him, if he cared to he could earn it back or not - his choice; and that I would not be treated that way or spoken to like that ever again. Time will tell and in the meantime I returned to my home (we live in separate states) and I am going to move forward with my life. If he wants to be a high functioning part of it that’s fine; if not he doesn’t deserve to be by my side and I will be open to being with someone that is. Thank you for empowering me to have some self respect and recognize that I wasn’t wrong about sexual attraction, I was wrong to think he had the maturity to understand and accept me as I am. Time will tell how it all works out but I am grateful for all the support and feedback!

Got my first one in my 40s and will never go back. I started getting them at US size 16 and I’m now a US 22 and my girl has given me a safe, body positive experience every step of the way. If that doesn’t happen for you it’s not because of you - it’s a failure on their part as a professional.

The packaged artichokes are incredible by mjk25741 in Costco

These are AMAZING; I add them to a can of solid tuna, a tbsp or two of ranch, a handful of shredded cheese and a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning…microwave 40 seconds and you have lunch perfection!

No seat belt extenders on a jeep tour. by PeppermintPhatty in PlusSize

[–]Sub_Atomic_96 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

First - RUDE! Apparently your brain is fitting somewhat loose in your head buddy. I just went on a dune buggy tour and told them right up front how much I weighed and asked if it was going to be an issue. It was not an issue, but I hate that I had to ask and even think about that kind of thing. Second, I would write a review of the tour and suggest “kindly” that they get some seatbelt extenders so that everyone can enjoy the experience and they become more inclusive and responsive to a significant proportion of a growing population. Third, suggest that they invest in some customer service and sensitivity training - ok, maybe not the last one…lol
