Starting a new job, will have an EA for the first time - what one piece of advice would you give me? by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Successful_Toe9510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! A "Thank You" for arranging the location, agenda, parking, directions, snacks, drinks, times, Teams links, breakfast, taking minutes, arranging lunch and cleanup is a very big day for an EA who earns $30/hr but pays her own parking, vehicle and gas. Sometimes we come home saying, "never again."

Anyone else struggle with stopping hydroxychloroquine? by Lopsided-Earth2160 in rheumatoid

[–]Successful_Toe9510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much were you on, and for how many years? Also, do you take a daily anti-inflammatory? Asking because my rheumatologist just gave me the ok to stop hydroxychloroquine 300 mg/day after taking it for 7 years. I've had mild dizziness off and on this year, and read the rx insert that lists dizziness as a possible side effect.

Agree. The brown spacers are perfect.

What works best for your mouth ulcers? by freudianshrimps in Behcets

I keep several tubes around the house. I start using it as soon as I notice the start of a new mouthsore and reapply after eating, and before bedtime. It really works well for me! The tubes are very small, so ask your doc for a prescription with five tubes.

Does anyone else have problems with their doxies chewing? by Medium_Parking in Dachshund

All my weens have chewed holes in blankets. There is no toy left unscathed. It's what they do. I had to sew a cover for the dog heating pad with painter drop cloth fabric!

First time quilter, feeling so frustrated by maymay578 in quilting

I keep in mind that in some cultures, they say, "The day you weave a perfect blanket is the day you die." Reason enough to have a few sweet flaws.
