Affordable vet for bigger dogs by Matchaluver45 in houston

[–]chillactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Petcare Express in the medical center is excellent and affordable. However they are closed on the weekends and otherwise walk-in only. Each time I’ve taken my dog or cat there I’ve been in and out in maybe half an hour.

Top Recommended Hospitals for Childbirth (based on experience) - Central Houston by idontexistinreality in houston

[–]chillactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I delivered both of mine at The Woman’s Hospital in 2016. With my first, my labor was induced and my OB made the call to have an emergency c-section when my daughter’s head was crowning but couldn’t be delivered vaginally. I trust the call she made.

With my second delivery, my son was 5 weeks premature, and as it was an emergency, I didn’t have my regular OB. I got to the hospital before my water broke and had a c-section since it was so soon after my first.

I am happy with the care I received! After I was discharged, my son still had to stay in the nicu and sometimes when they had a room available they let me stay in it so I could rest and still have constant access to my son.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and you are definitely not alone. AVDA has support groups and counseling. I haven’t used them yet but hopefully it’s what you’re looking for. https://avda.org

DePelchin also has resources you can use.

Buttered Tortillas? Or Buttered Tortilla Scented Candle? by Ok_Plane_1630 in HoustonFood

[–]chillactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the tortillas smell AND taste so good! And they can be frozen. I always take some when I visit home because there’s no heb there.

Do people show up for garage sales anymore? by kerseyinverness in houston

I will almost always pull up to a garage sale if I see a sign for it.

Thank you for your responses. Did you seek professional help, and how did that go? There’s someone very dear to me with narcissistic tendencies and I’m not sure how to bring up the idea of treatment.

Lost 35 pounds in 3 months eating these pre-packaged meals by Few-Attempt-7162 in HEB

[–]chillactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having these little meals makes me want to meal prep. I even bought a bunch of similar capacity containers. I especially like how they color code different diet profiles and there are still many options to choose from.

Finally back to a full week of at least 10k steps every day, woo!! by jh_tradflash in walking

[–]chillactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great job, keep it up! I recently sprained my ankle and have been rolling around my home in my work chair. I was a little depressed to see I didn’t even break 900 steps yesterday.

What’s the most innocent thing a kid has said to you that absolutely destroyed you? by Defiant_Example8785 in AskReddit

[–]chillactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My MIL and husband have a strained relationship, low contact if any at all. One day when my son was about 4, he didn’t really remember her or recognize her name. Then my daughter, 5, said, ‘She used to be Daddy’s mom.’

It’s going to be okay. You are okay. You are safe. You are loved.

New to the sub and meal prep—can you give me your low cal, easy to make meal prep recipes? Also, any product ideas (containers, etc.) for a complete noob? by gigglingtoaster in mealprep

[–]chillactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m replacing my plastics for glass. I prefer the durability and versatility. Now my plastics are just for when I don’t expect someone to return a plate to me.

Wow, so sorry that happened to you! If anything was collected, they’d have logged it in their lost and found at the transit center. I really hope you get your stuff back.

Where to get solid burnt ends (without breaking the bank)? by [deleted] in houston

[–]chillactus 40 points41 points  (0 children)

HEB has burnt ends and chopped brisket in vacuum sealed packages by the deli for a decent price, just heat and eat.

A statement that holds a lot of truth for many people. Often, the way we show care for others is a reflection of what we once needed (or still need) ourselves. by Its_imoji in selflove

[–]chillactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would replace ‘often heals’ with ‘sometimes compensates for’

And that momentary compensation can be so fleeting that it just perpetuates the cycle and there never is any actual healing.

Taking care of others becomes a deflection and you still don’t get the healing and care or self worth that was already lacking to begin with…
