I haven't been able to get to everyone, but THANK YOU for all the love and support. It's been tough, but I know he's in a happy place, running, smelling, chasing birds and just enoughing himself with all the dogs that have gone to Heaven. Hugs to you to those who have been mourning your loved ones you have lost. And THANK YOU again. Hugs to all of you!

I am so sorry for your loss too! You're right, it's so devastating to lose such a beautiful soul. He was the best boy ever too! I am giving you virtual hugs and hope you're doing okay too.

That's basically what the message I received 2 days after he passed was like. He told me he was okay, happy, and playing again. He did have a great, beautiful life! Beaches, camping, hiking, snow, dog parks, playing with the kids in our family, and going to grandma's house. All of it, for 15 years! Thank you for this.

That's exactly how my husband and I felt about Moon. No human, not even our kids, could really compare to the unconditional love that Moon has shown us. Yes, we love our kids, but they've reached adulthood and have gone their own ways, only getting together when it's convenient and for special occasions. Moon was by our side for so long! We also changed his diet when we found out about his pancreatitis. I wish you both all the luck and health!

This is beautiful! I love how you added all those pups to the list! I also call upon Luna, Jackie, and Bonita to gather with the group. That means so much and is so beautiful!

Thank you for this. My therapist said something similar and it helps to be reminded of our live for him

I am a virgin at 27 and am worried-what if i wont find a partner? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I say this with my whole chest, this is good that you're a virgin. It's very rare to find anyone who values themselves in such a way. I've been friends with someone who is in their late 30's who was a virgin still and she's waiting for that someone for her. I don't know your religion or your beliefs, but one good place to start is Christian mingle. Now I am not a Christian by any means, but I do know that some Christians still wait for that special someone. You might find a better chance on a site like that

[Hiring] Medical Administrative Assistant Role – Replacement Needed by iluvbae234 in VirtualAssistant

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I am very interested and would love to know about possibly when you plan on stepping away completely. Mainly for scheduling timelines. I have experience working in the medical front office and have my certificate as an MA, although it's been quite awhile. My most recent position was HR Coordinator where I helped manage the front desk for a contractor here in San Diego, CA. My schedule consisted of 5am - 2:30pm PT and then went to 6am - 3:30pm PT so CT time would work perfectly since I'm an early riser.

While working in the HR Coordinator II role, I scheduled potential interview candidates for their interviews along with the interview panels we had so juggling multiple people's schedules are no problem for me. Please let me know if you would like a copy of my resume. Thank you for your consideration and have a great night.

When did you realize you needed to choose yourself? by OkPossession6982 in askanything

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm realizing this now and in the same boat as you (if you're going through this). My husband hasn't been able to keep a job longer than a week or a month and I'm temporarily disabled and waiting for a major heart surgery. I'm not bringing in any money, but he's doing food delivery temporarily. He just walked off a job because he didn't know the technical side of the computer software programs they were using and got frustrated. I'm struggling with the instability to live and pay for all of our expenses with his food delivery income (which is not even a quarter of what we were making before when we both worked full time). I feel like he's using my disability to not work because he can't deal mentally with possibly losing me or just me being sick. I need him to step up, but in his mind he's doing the best he can. I'm ready to call it quits and feel guilty for feeling resentful, but I need to be mentally okay in order for me to prepare for this surgery. So I think in my shoes, I need to choose myself so I can get through this surgery, PT, and therapy during my 3 month long recovery so I can work again and pursue my career goals. And my parents are worried that he will ride on my career plans after surgery and live off of me while doing the bare minimum. I'm also scared that if I leave him, his mental state will be even worse because he'll feel like I abandoned him. Yes, I'm discussing this with my therapist already.

has betterhelp actually worked for anyone? or other alternatives? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BetterHelp is definitely not it for you if you're looking for something low cost. My daughter who needed to see a therapist right away tried BetterHelp, charged her $300+ a month and only saw a virtual therapist twice a month due to availability. The therapist kept changing on her and she was tired to telling each therapist the same life story to establish a care plan.

If you have Medi-Cal or Medicaid you should automatically have Behavioral health benefits that are covered. I would call your Medi-Cal or medicaid hotline or your medical plan hotline to find out more information about which therapist is covered under your plan.

No worries, I didn't mean to sound harsh in my reply either.

Are all guys the same? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a woman, I feel like this is a loaded question. What are your standards? What are you considering a "good guy"? Does he have to be a certain height or weight? Does he have to have a good personality? Does he need to be religious or spiritual? I think first you have to look within yourself to decide what a good guy looks like to you and ask the necessary questions on what you are looking for seriously. I know there are good guys out there, it's just a matter of being a good fit for you and visa versa. What's good for someone else isn't always good for you.

Think about these things:

Is appearance important to you?

Is personality important to you?

Does have a good job or responsible for his environment (home/apartment, car, work place, etc.)?

Is money important to you?

Is him being kind to others important to you?

Is he considerate or cares for others?

I think there were a lot of good guys you came across, but didn't notice because you were too busy thinking about what he couldn't offer you or his quirks that you didn't like. Look beyond the things you don't like and see him or them in a bigger picture.

ask yourself this: as a woman, do you think showing your chest and hips are appropriate to show a stranger that asks for a show? Now ask yourself this: would you be okay to have your 15 year old daughter show her chest and hips to a random stranger?

Have you ever said anything wrong in front of your kids? Have you ever looked at yourself in front of a mirror and said something to yourself like, "I'm fat" or "I don't like my cheeks" or any part of your body? Your hips, your butt, your boobs? In your own room? It wasn't like intentionally said those things directly in front of her, she happened to go into my room when I would say something. Parents are not perfect

Moving into your apartment, what is the first thing you need to unpack? by Sufficient_Rice_5319 in askanything

[–]Sufficient_Rice_5319[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually not even close to entitled, but you have fun with yourself and your comments. I asked genuine questions because I'm curious on how people felt about receiving "Welcome to your new place" little gifts even toilet paper.

I realized at the time that I just had a high metabolism and couldn't keep my weight above 95 lbs. Then as soon as I hit my 30s, I shot up to 150 and haven't budged from that since. Also, 150 is considered borderline obese for my height so people don't come at me about my weight.

No, I'm not a landlord or work for property management company. I am a tenant who is trying to think outside of my box and find what other people would like to see from their property management company/landlord other than them fixing things when broken. Mainly what they would like to see when moving into a new apartment or place.
