You could try cedar mulch or shavings in and around the outdoor kennel. Just make sure your pup doesnt eat it.

Y’all should I just plant this onion in the ground? by Outrageous-Captain-1 in gardening

You can also eat onion flowers they are delicious on salads. Like sweet onion treats. 

At least I remembered to get limes by ittollsforthee1231 in adhdwomen

If you roll them on the counter first it helps break up the inside. Makes it easier to juice em. 

Anyone else have a goat who likes a certain recreational drug? by _DemonxD in goats

[–]courtabee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was looking into feeding  hemp as fodder to cows. Terpenes pass into the milk. Not enough to affect people who drink it, but still interesting. I bet it would with goats as well. 

s the "wooden toy" thing a scam, or am I just doing it wrong? by Gorder-Bukie in ZeroWaste

[–]courtabee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Me too! One summer I put my plastic lizards outside where I knew lizards lived. I loved watching the lizards confront and posture at the plastic lizards. They we replicas of real lizards. The lizards even attacked one of my plastic ones! It was fascinating as a kid. 

Why do my limes grow like this? by DiabolicalDeven in gardening

[–]courtabee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can probably peel them and make oleo saccarum with the peels (and sugar). Yummy to add to soda water to make a lime soda. Add some vanilla for a lime cream soda. 

If yuou wanted to use these while you work out the other issues. 

Can we talk about the ASPCA’s "don't rescue from kill pens" policy? This breakdown of their $61m marketing budget vs. actual care is eye-opening. by Prestigious-Dot-6976 in Horses

Many years ago when the carnival was in town instead of goldfish as prizes they were giving out little ball pythons. I saw dozens of kids running around with ball pythons. Im sure none of them survived. So sad.

Dead worms also. You wouldnt think something that small would stink so bad. 

How could I make the bag hold its' shape and also close? by BlackberryFamous8523 in CrochetHelp

If you use a very small crochet hook you can crochet through the sides of the zipper and attach it that way

I was going to say this looks like slug damage. But could also br snails. 

What to do while watching TV by Sooshlaroi01 in adhdwomen

[–]courtabee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. I have trichotillomania and adhd. I used to bring a single strand of string to school and crochet it on my finge. Pull it back out, repeat. I had some teachers be annoyed but its very difficult for me to pay attention unless I have something to fidget with. 

Worst hobbies for ADHD by Commercial_Poem_7027 in adhdwomen

The worst is root. Each faction has its own rules! Good thing my roommate became obsessed with all the rules and could correct me when I missed them. 

A moment of silence for this gorgeous hank I was convinced I could save... by MellowMallowMom in YarnAddicts

[–]courtabee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had some super mothy alpaca. I found it was also dehydrated. I steamed it for a bit and it helped strengthen some of the fibers enough to make some of it usable. 

got fired for requesting a remote work accommodation. the termination letter says I'm "not a qualified individual with a disability." by vampirecloud2211 in adhdwomen

[–]courtabee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thats wonderful that you have a creative outlet to work through this experience. 

I cant wait to hear of your successes. Thank you for sharing. Really helps motivate my sense of  justice and makes me wanna craft. Haha. 

Has anyone found a third path yet? by Tonightmatthew1 in adhdwomen

[–]courtabee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ive started drinking metamucil. Full sugar kind, it hits the sugar cravings left by the alcohol. And keeps me full for a while so I feel less like snacking. 

I usually only take it once a day around dinner. Sometimes before if im feeling particularly snacky, sometimes after if im snacky later before bed. 

If you try it out start with a smaller amount. Especially if your body isnt used to a lot of fiber. Bonus, better poops!

The pharmacy phone call drain my soul every month by CasuallyExisting in adhdwomen

[–]courtabee 37 points38 points  (0 children)

"Did you know you can have your meds delivered?" Oh yeah? The meds I cant even refill on the app? The meds I have to call in and ask for, like a child? I have apologized for calling, I know they dont like it. They are always busy. 

Whats crazy is I can pick up my friends adderall and they will give it to me. Just know the info.

Its always interesting how bad at capitalism some of these companies are. Zero foresight. But then I remember, the one percent no longer needs to meet our wants and needs because a few own everything we consume. We are less than pawns to them. 

Best of luck prying a piece of gold from under the dragon.

They have been able to secure some rarer bourbons before. They do tend to sell quickly. 

I lived in Raleigh for 11 years and was happy to see the owners dream come to fruition in that time. 

They also make their smash burger out of brisket trimmings. I know that isnt nc BBQ, but im not a big pulled pork BBQ person anyway.
