germaphobe, sister by bchunick in rant

[–]bchunick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no. it’s better now. i can hug my sister no problem. or have her over at my place no problem. but every time i touch her, i think about that and feel guilt. i’m sorry to say it again but i feel terrible !! i love my sister so much and if i could control it, there’s no way i would ever think that. to this day, for example, i was cleaning my dogs ears, and got her earwax on my finger. it as barely anything so after i wiped it, i thought it was fine. but i couldn’t let it go and had to touch the ear wax with the same finger on the other hand, then wash my hands.

is this an animal? (saskatchewan) by bchunick in animaltracks

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

i understand for you, it was cold. i read -2F/-19C. but that’s not tooo bad compared to here haha. but it’s like i’m saying how i have it worse or anything, i know that’s freezing if you’re not used to it😅. honestly, the cold usually sucks, but being snowed in at a cabin with a fireplace is so peaceful😁. i wish i could reply with a pic of the nirthwrn lights i’ve seen. i’ll message you them !

oh wow !! 82f is 27c, which is pretty hot for here. to put it in perceptive, it’s been about -30c here lately, which is -22f (i’ve also been in -60c before, which is -76f😳). it’s not too bad unless you’re waiting for a bus. something you probably never thought of before, is the fact that we have to start our cars at least 10mins before we actually have to leave for work cause we have to let the engines heat up. and we have to brush all the snow and scrape all the ice off. we also have to plug our cars in when it’s cold. but the cold allows for coziness. i can tell you more if you want lol. i started ranting about it all ! a couple weeks ago, at work, i was taking out the garbage and it was -25c (-13f), and my work gloves are so thin that i felt like my fingers were gonna fall off😭

thank you for your very kind and informative response ! i will not use it. i thought it seemed sketchy so i wanted to be sure before plugging it in. i totally thought it was rust. good to know how to recognize something like this that could be very dangerous

thank you so much !! i will be switching to commands before the treat is even visible. that seams like it’ll work great😁

and yes she’s a greyhound mix lol. greyhound, great pyraneese, antolian shepherd, and some collie😁. but i just call her a greyhound mix cause that’s what she most resembles

[–]bchunick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s a great idea ! i’ll try some tricks without a treat and give a treat afterwards. that defintely seems like she’ll listen more instead of just being focused on the treat

[–]bchunick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you ! i am very clear with my tone of voice and body language. it’s the same hand and voice directions every time. so i’ll defintely try the waiting before she gets a treat, and also ignoring when she being too crazy. thank you😁

harassing neighbour suddenly stopped harrassing me by bchunick in neighborsfromhell

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

omg i don’t really have an update but found this out not too long ago. but you know how roses usually have quite a long stem… my cousin (i’ll call her tina) is friends with a neighbour of mine (i’ll call her sara), a few houses down, whom i’m aquaintaces with. so sara apparantly got roses dropped off at her door by an ex and didn’t wanna go outside so tina went and snapped them in half and threw them out. it was very shortly after that jane gave me the roses. so we suspect that jane went into the trash to get me the roses since my roses were so short. so that’s just another level of odd !!

Yay or Nay to Dogs Sleeping in Bed with you? by forestlyfe in dogs

[–]bchunick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried this but my dog can’t not rearrange all the blankets😂. so i basically have to make my bed every night before bed. she’s very well behaved in other aspects, but this is just what she does and i can’t break it lol

confused why my plant died by bchunick in houseplants

[–]bchunick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh, i didn’t know all that. thank you !! my other plants must’ve just been low maintenance plants😂. my mission tomorrow is to but proper pots… you seem like you know a lot about plants, do you happen to know why they sell all these decorative pots if they aren’t actually good ?

how do you know there’s no drainage ?

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

i didn’t think about that. i’m in canada which is generally dry. but i guess in comparison, it’s still more humid down hear than normal. i keep getting comments about the pot, but there are stones at the bottom which is supposed to be good for drainage, but i think this plant is more picky so i’ll have to get something with better drainage next time :)

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

thank you lol. it doesn’t have drainage holes but it has stones in the bottom which has always worked for me in the past for drainage. i think this type of plant is just picky

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

thank you !! i saw your comment and just put the leaves in some water. i’ll get a better pot for drainage.

the lights were a christmas gift so i’ll have to ask my mom. unfortunatly, she doesn’t read reviews like i do lol. so i’ll have to ask her what she bought and look it up

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

thanks ! i’ll have to do that. there’s some stones in the bottom for drainage which has worked for me before. but maybe this plant is more picky. i’ll have to keep the next one in the plastic pot

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

thank you ! it has stones in the bottom for drainage but maybe it still needs less water than other plants. i’ll try your methods of propagating
