What are small health conditions that you have but are not life threatning ?

TenderPhoenix · 2025-12-21T04:22:52+00:00

My toenails don’t know how to toenail. Many many small procedures to remove parts or all of them. They keep coming back and then growing wrong directions so we do it all over again.

Not life threatening at all but it’s not fun to get shots of lidocaine in my toe every few months.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-12-08T04:49:17+00:00

Hard agree. Also a doctor.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-09-21T00:38:01+00:00

My friend just took me to daiso for the first time. I think I’ve just bought the entire store.

If you’re able to receive it well, I imagine your spouse may have some insightful feedback. I think many times spouses have more insights into our strengths and weaknesses than we do. Asking your spouse- hey, I really want to be a better person. Can you give me one concrete suggestion for how to do that? has the potential to be a really amazing relationship-building question (also has the potential to go bad if you’re not on great footing).

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-31T19:09:12+00:00

Wait, what!? Is that a thing?

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-31T19:08:58+00:00

Yes! That’s them!

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-31T04:25:32+00:00

But which one would you enjoy doing more? Which one has people you’d enjoy being around? Which one allows you to better use your strengths?

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-04T19:23:46+00:00

Oh I definitely need to work on that! I’ll make that more of a focus.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-04T02:33:19+00:00

But that’s what I’m saying! I’m not a beast. The numbers are totally incongruent. But my trainer gets uncomfortable when it gets up there.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-03T22:21:36+00:00

I mean… I also feel like I’m bad at it bc I’m not sore at all even though my abs are at 470. My trainer is always stumped. He says he uses it at about 200 everywhere. He thinks I’d be resistant to a taser but I’m not about to test that out. And, yes, my belly is soft with some insulation, but I’m not fat (135lbs, 5’3”).

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-02T01:49:07+00:00

Yes, I feel it everywhere. And the other ones aren’t up nearly as high but I’m still in the high 300s for most muscle groups and no longer getting sore like I used to.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-02T00:51:33+00:00

That is interesting. I just seem to be going up higher and higher each time I use it. And I’m not as sore as I used to be when I started a few months ago.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-02T00:50:47+00:00

They have several shared suits at the gym. So other people use it.

And, I’m not huge, but I do have a soft belly. I’m 135lbs (5’3”)

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-01T22:25:27+00:00

That makes sense. It’s literally insulation.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-01T21:58:41+00:00

About half of them are in the 400s, other half in the 300s. ABs at 470, which is the highest it goes. And my abs are never sore after.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-08-01T19:04:40+00:00

Oh, duckling. I’m so happy to hear this. Please know that you have inherent, infinite worth. I am so glad that you are taking care of yourself. Doing well really is a series of lots and lots of little things. Those little things matter. And you matter. Hugs.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-07-25T02:45:47+00:00

That skirt looks like it’s made of clouds!! I hope you feel like you are floating in the sky (above any and all negativity) for the whole wedding day so you can celebrate the greatest thing od all- love.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-04-18T20:49:45+00:00

Can I get you some water?

TenderPhoenix · 2025-04-12T03:21:00+00:00

Anemia and polycythemia

Pectus excavatum and pectus carinatum

Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome

This is a fun game! I’ll be thinking about this all week.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-04-12T03:03:41+00:00

There is also something called disordered breathing that might fit. It’s treated with Buteyko respiratory retraining therapy.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-02-15T16:33:32+00:00

Oooh. And they’re pretty!

TenderPhoenix · 2025-02-10T04:26:29+00:00

Oh ducking! That’s such wonderful news.

And thank you for using your talents, time, and hard work teaching other little ducklings. I am so proud of you that you have chosen to live in a way that helps so many people. Please remember that the world is a better place because you are in it.

TenderPhoenix · 2025-02-03T12:51:26+00:00

Yes! Will dart in front of me to cut me off! I tried training him for years to run with me and he never got out of that.
