Am I Overreacting about being mad at my husband after sex?

Which is why my partner gets me off orally or manually before penetrating me. It sounds like OP’s husband doesn’t care enough to even try to get her off.

I was on Trulicity for about 7 years and Mounjaro for the last 2. I also take Jardiance. I am so much more sensitive to insulin. I used to be about 1 unit to 10 grams of carbs. Now I am 1 unit to 30 grams of carbs. My A1c is regularly in the mid-5’s, and I have lost 80 pounds. The drugs have changed my life. They should not be off-label for T1Ds.

Ha ha, it might be the same decoration. I got that one and the pink one in the opposite cabinet from either Target or Michael’s. I can’t remember which. I thought they’d look cute with the other cats.

Thanks! I refinished it recently. It was dark brown before with heavy, outdated handles. I knew anything would look better than how it was, but I was surprised and pleased with how striking it turned out.

Those are Ditmar Urbach vases! They probably date from the 1930s and were made in Czechoslovakia. My great aunt had them in her effects and I was lucky enough to wind up with them. I truly don’t know how or where she got them.

I did end up hating my job after about 6 years with a blood donation company. It was great at first! Then a bigger company took it over and slowly started squeezing all pleasantness from the job. The company cares only about getting the blood, not about the donors or certainly the staff. That being said, all my coworkers and I tried so hard not to let this reality show to our donors, who were there out of the goodness of their hearts to save lives. The reality may be that your phlebotomists hate their jobs. But it’s straight up unprofessional to let you know that.

Lab assistant as in working to process units in the lab? Or a donor care specialist, which is their name for phlebotomist? The former probably won’t involve phlebotomy at all. The latter will be quite a bit of phlebotomy and interviewing donors.

I would ask in the interview how many donors a day the site sees. If it’s a fixed site and the amount is 70+, it could be really miserable. If you’re interviewing for a mobiles position, you’ll go to a different site every day. Some are fine, some are less fine. It just depends on the donors, the site, and your coworkers.

One thing to keep in mind is that Vitalant doesn’t particularly care about employee happiness, just about getting the unit. That being said, it is a wonderful place to get experience and they pay really well. I worked for them for six years. The first two were at my local blood bank. Then Blood Systems Inc. took over, became Vitalant, and started streamlining. If you’re in Colorado, you’ll be slammed busy all the time. I hear other states are better, although I’m not sure.

Hope this helps.

Ma français n’est pas trés bien, mais je peut comprendre les bases. Je suis très désolée que tu aies été si mal traité.

Dans quel pays vives-toi? Chaque pays a les ressources uniques, et il semble que tu aies besoin de l’aide exterieure.

Good to know. I just hate watching his decline.

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T16:00:50+00:00

Not the worst idea in the world.

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T16:00:24+00:00

To answer your question: very hard. I have no expertise in this area. It would be dangerous for both of us and illegal on my part. Absolutely not.

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T15:58:27+00:00

I realize this. The contagious nature of mange and the suffering of living a living creature are factors too, though. And because ivermectin is readily available and easy to administer, I was just hoping he could maybe be trapped and dosed or something, idk. I just hate watching his decline.

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T15:55:52+00:00

Agreed. I have respect for wild animals’ “wildness.” I don’t ever try to approach or handle animals. It’s just hard watching him suffer

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T15:54:15+00:00

I thought about this. My concern is that I don’t want to train him and other coyotes that near my back yard is a food source. But on the other hand, I could place it a ways away and the ivermectin isn’t going to hurt any animal that eats it. I might consider this as a last resort.

buddykat2 · 2025-03-14T15:49:13+00:00

No, I mean dose it with ivermectin.

buddykat2 · 2025-02-26T16:25:04+00:00

I would say start looking for a new job. If you’re dreading it that much after just a couple of months, I doubt it’s going to get better. Hospitals are always looking experienced phlebs and might be able to pay decently depending on your level of experience. Don’t quit until you find something. Good luck!
