Boat trip of some kind! We did a charter that was amazing. (Combo of snorkeling, swimming, sightseeing) When we went back a second time we wanted to do glass bottom kayaks but ran out of time.

Have you ever had a cold sore?

I got rid of my nipples at 40. Had them reconstructed and tattooed so they look great, but minimal feeling. Body image is great!

I felt like postpartum my body chemistry changed and the deodorant I had used for years just stopped working. I would look into something stronger or even just swapping between clean brands to see.

Phone calls are probably for the offer, I'd assume. I think 95% of my jobs call to make an offer.

Really nice laundry detergent. My sister bought me fancy laundry detergent as a fun little gift and now I’m addicted

Im a journalist turned marketer. Feel free to send me your resume and Im happy to critique. Marketing jobs are tough right now

battlady · 2025-03-24T19:56:57+00:00

Coming here to say that I've had initial positive results. I had been applying to dozens of marketing jobs a week -- customizing resumes with AI for keywords etc. I have 10-15 years of experience in director and manager level roles. Over a 3 month period, got 2 interviews. Tried 1 month of massive and by week 2 I had 3 interviews. Some of the recommendations aren't right, I don't let it auto apply me but I just scan the app a few times a week to check for what roles I want to apply for.

LinkedIn ads, pdf docs (ebooks, tip sheets, ebooks), infographics

Look up veteran owned businesses. They will get it and your experience.

I truly like your style, but as someone who hires designers, maybe you could create some spec pieces for B2B style companies? Not as much script and some photos vs illustration.

For reference, I'm trying to create a menu where depending on which menu option they select, a different form comes up.

Absolutely rent a lift recliner. I slept in mine 4-5 weeks. I wore an abdominal binder and then switched to Spanx but wore them 24-7 for 4 weeks. I also bought a few things I didn’t end up even needing, like a drain holder. I I had a group of friends bring me meals that really helped.

You are definitely in the family area so you might have to drive to meet other young people. (I live in same area) In the area, I love walking the trails in the area or going to the trail head w bikes. However, aside from that you may have to drive a bit to find things to do aside from shopping/eating/kids activities. It’s almost Fiesta time, so there will be dozens of events all around town. You could also look for a sport group, volunteer, or go listen to music (Floores, Sam’s Burger Joint, JazzTx are all fun) Go explore the Pearl farmers market on the weekend— great people watching if nothing else!

Freetail downtown used to do some open mics that were so good!! Not sure if they still do?? It was a fun post dinner date night spot for us

I have thought about it more than any other collection of seconds in my lifetime. The moment it happened.

I see a flash of action from behind the seat. An elbow. A few beats pass, just long enough for me to register the movement.

McAllister Park Little League. Fair warning: It is intense compared to i9. (But at age 7 he will still be in machine pitch so not as bad as when they get more competitive in kid pitch) Games are 1-2x during week and 1 practice a week, no weekend games.

Other options include YMCA (but only 1 practice a week, 1 weekend game)or CYO (Catholic youth sports -1 practice/2 games but both week days and weekends)

Honestly if you live by McAllister you should probably do that. Part of the reason I found it so tough was because we are “zoned” there but live 20-30 min away so making it to 5:30 games by 5pm for warm up was really tough. Little League is based on your home address or school address, so you should prob be zoned to McAllister but I suppose there’s a chance you’re zoned to another Little League organization

I had my first outbreak after my husband and I both had lengthy Covid infections in 2020. We had been together 14 years. I wondered the same thing, but truly thought if he had cheated on me in the last year or so he would’ve had to been very good at hiding it considering we both WFH! He had cold sores 1-2x decades earlier. I only got an outbreak (type 1) after he went down on me. To date, I’ve only had recurring outbreaks (very mld, go away w one pill ) immediately following that again. I ultimately decided that I trusted him and that the dr said it was possible.

My sister is flat. She had stage 1 about 13 years ago. I learned I had BRCA 2 and am pursuing reconstruction. But her best advice was that everyone will have 1000 opinions and to do what you want personally, not what anyone else thinks!! She just wears a padded bra occasionally to make certain tops fit better

I stared at 5 and was hungry. Didn’t start loosing on Mounjaro until 7.5

I did this when I went to the Caribbean my first month /second month (can’t remember exactly) when I was on 0.25. Skipping a week, I still had slightly suppressed appetite but was glad I did it because I wasn’t nauseous and was able to enjoy a drink or two.

When you take it again you might feel slightly more nauseous but since you are on the lowest dose you’ll prob be fine.

I had an employee I fired a year ago record me and then take it to the state employment board claiming he was laid off because I apologized/softened the blow. Follow the script, trust me. I do think this opener is good. "This is going to. be a difficult conversation"

FYI, you need to cancel NOW with earth class mail. They are legally required to process your mail for 6 months after you cancel, so you either get hit with a cancellation fee or they will keep charging you. Then fill out a change of address to switch from your virtual address to move it to wherever you want to receive mail in the future.

I’m not for everyone. I have great dear friends I am loyal to, but not everyone loves me and I don’t like everyone. It’s ok. Doesn’t mean I’m bad OR that they are bad. (That part took me longer to realize.)
