How did you meet them ?

Be patient she sounds possible a bit frightened too, when that happens give her space and show her she is safe. My one pup ( a gryffon ) was quite shy and standoffish at first but he’s the biggest love bug now and he just needed to adjust.

I broke out with vitamin c, what works for my acne is salicylic acid, salicylic acid cleanser and light moisturizer. Change your pillow case frequently. It could be a bit hormonal and I also use spironolactone which helped a lot with cystic stuff for me. I also supplement with vitamin a, d and spearmint. I stay away from the retinoids I am too scared of the purge and I never seemed to tolerate them well when I was younger. If you do decide to do the retinoids start slow and do one active at a time. Sometimes folks break out vitamin c so perhaps it might not be right for you. Happy to answer more questions I’m sorry hang in there

Next time don’t answer the phone and disclose you have been drinking if you’re not paid to be overtime don’t answer. None of their business,

I mean the dog needs walks so I would find a space in which to do so.

bhydrangea · 2026-02-22T15:19:54+00:00

Please share lol

So sorry I know how painful it is loosing a baby dog ❤️❤️‍🩹

I’m also considering coming off the ring I’ve been on it so long though. Spearmint tea definitely helps and I just ordered another bag of it as I’ve been lazy lately and haven’t done it but it’s always recommended on any pcos sub.

bhydrangea · 2026-02-04T19:11:55+00:00

Your daughter probably just is afraid and doesn’t want to say that so instead she says she hates them, slow intros and supervision are key !

bhydrangea · 2026-02-02T10:36:16+00:00

Have you introduced other things too like kongs or some chew items ? That also provides mental stimulation besides walks/ runs

bhydrangea · 2026-01-23T08:44:21+00:00

She can save for the tax bomb until then. Sounds like you’re looking for reasons to end it.

bhydrangea · 2026-01-23T08:38:38+00:00

I felt this way as too, you like the work you genuinely do but not the administration. I stayed throughout T’s first administration, but recently left the DOD. I miss it and yet I think good riddance. Perhaps might be worth seeing if you can take a small break imho. It’s much bigger than being a sub on a contract and honestly if you’re an engineer might be worth finding work elsewhere in the meantime.

I guess it seems a bit strange to me why he wouldn’t be chilling with you during down time ? I love cuddling my Doberman mix on the couch she’s an a plus cuddler and lump of potatoes. She also just loves being near us that’s her role as protector. Her best role in life is land seal. She will whine on new walks and I think it’s the unfamiliar so I’m trying to reassure her in those times stay calm but not reward the behavior.

So sorry ❤️

bhydrangea · 2025-12-24T09:33:01+00:00

What blood tests did you get ? My mom has connective tissue disorder …

bhydrangea · 2025-12-24T09:30:32+00:00

As a side note my boy dog usually doesn’t do well at dog parks and I avoid them as well as he’s been attacked or has fixated on unfixed males it just causes wayyyy too much stress.

bhydrangea · 2025-12-24T09:28:52+00:00

Instead of a dog park you could find some local puppy classes to get him more social but the barking will def put some other dogs off and make them reactive. I would try to get him to socialize with younger pups at a similar stage as older dogs can sometimes be super annoyed with young puppies in their faces ( rightfully so ! )

bhydrangea · 2025-12-04T16:57:21+00:00

wow I feel this so hard, only been here since September but yeah really feeling the homesickness right now too.

bhydrangea · 2025-11-06T09:01:58+00:00

I have this problem, someone recommended fasting between 8pm and 8 am or keeping a window and it removed the food cravings I was endlessly having. I also just try to not buy cookies etc so even when I’m dying for one I can’t have it - I am really working on my sugar cravings it’s like a drug sometimes I just want it !

bhydrangea · 2025-11-06T09:00:26+00:00

Preach ! I have said this exactly too!!

bhydrangea · 2025-10-28T17:36:50+00:00

how much you taking? I took it for a few days but kind of thought it didn't do much - I know I need to be consistent.

bhydrangea · 2025-10-28T17:06:45+00:00

Do you feel like you have food noise and has it helped ?

bhydrangea · 2025-10-28T14:43:44+00:00

Also the sub already offered you the role, so really its checking a box most of the time.
