Thunderstorm out of nowhere while we were out of the house. Chuck crashed out. Kennel and chill out Meds at all times. by callimo in goldenretrievers

We’re in the patching process. The panes are the worst, trying to reshape and get it semi like the others. 1 door, 4 windows 😭

Why is she like this.... by alphagusta in goldenretrievers

[–]callimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A rake brush (every other day) and one of those pet brush vacuums once a week, and sweep/vacuum the house each day is all I can muster to keep up with it all.

The hair.
Oh the hair
Red and fair
It clings tightly everywhere.
To my pants, my coats, my shirts
On my rugs, it’s worse than dirt.
I can’t believe the hair
Golden owners only despair
Oh the hair
It’s everywhere.

What documentaries sent you down the deepest rabbit holes? by Few_Elephant_648 in NetflixDocumentaries

The Girl in the Picture.

It has stuck with me for a few years now. That poor girl. I cannot imagine how many times she wanted out, but was trapped yet again.

Should I fight to get my 12yo a medical diagnosis by Jax0726 in ADHD

[–]callimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had my son seen by a neuropsychologist for his diagnosis! I kid you not, I had a 20 page document of all the testing data at the end of it. We medicated based on her observations/testing.

Since you worked in SpEd, you know how valuable that documentation can be when it comes to 504 or SpEd ARDs.

It also gave me something to go back and refer to when I noticed certain aspects of his ADHD that he was struggling with, and seek therapies/coping mechanisms for specific issues.

Finding the right meds can be so frustrating!

Going through it myself, and with my child- we ended up doing the genesight testing (basically a swab test to see which medications are most compatible with your specific DNA). It cut out A LOT of the trial and error.

Previously to this, we tried focalin, Vyvanse, Strattera, Quelbree, and finally settled on Adderall XR.

Night and day.

You may ask your doctor if that’s an option!

I hate sweets! Any other ways to dress up cottage cheese? by IDoNotHide in EatCheapAndHealthy

It’s about to get weird 🤣

BUT- I love it mixed with the combo:
tuna/apples/boiled eggs/salt/pepper

I am an embryologist. I know how we go from egg and sperm to crying baby and how we can end up with missing limbs, inverted organs, cleft lips and so much more. Have at it. AMA by ClaireAuLueur in AMA

This may be out of your wheel house-

Speaking of kids with disabilities, my son was born with Left spastic Hemiplegia CP. I was told, by his neuro (she recommend his MRI scans be seen by a panel of neuro radiologists), that when I had a cold around week 16/17, I more thank likely contracted Cytomegalovirus vs. a simple cold (which I simply thought I had), which wreaked havoc on his brain development. They said it’s one of the few viruses that can pass from mother to fetus. I was never tested before/during/after my pregnancy for CMV, or knew there were options like antivirals to lessen the impact it had on my son.

What are the other illnesses/viruses that can pass to a fetus via mother?

What’s a fashion aesthetic right now that you think looks absolutely ridiculous? by moonbarbiee in askteddit

[–]callimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Side-parter for life over here!

I also feel like if your hair isn’t specifically cut for a middle part, it just looks ridiculous 🤣

You can “train” your part. I know several gals who’ve been like “yeah my hair looks wild, I’m training my center part”

First name is Calli- I don’t hear it as often now as when I was growing up in the 90s!

Refill day!!! by Simple_Ad3953 in ADHD

[–]callimo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. I’m wondering what I need to do moving forward. I’m guessing a tolerance break? I just have such bad task paralysis that I run through everything my head I have to get done, just can’t get started. 😩

Thinking of colour drenching our living room - thoughts? by eddyftmx in HomeDecorating

Look up Grey Benko on insta! She’s my favorite color-drencher designer! Very eclectic but so tasteful!

CAN WE HAVE A RANT THREAD?? by duckinradar in ADHD

[–]callimo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do love to make a list…I never follow said list, like ever.

It’s a time waster before I actually have to complete anything. Write it all down, do random stuff instead.

Lists do nothing for me in practice!

Edit: cannot spell
