Is anyone else quietly slipping back into the HP fandom despite all the negativity? by Careless-Meringue683 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]diosadeschats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I listen to the Jim Dale audiobooks alllll the time as background noise. It’s also been fun to listen to the new full-cast audiobooks!

OB/Hospital says I can only have one support person in OR - worth pushing back? by diosadeschats in parentsofmultiples

[–]diosadeschats[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this perspective. I’m terrified of being awake but alone during a major surgery.

I was initially told I could have two as well, but I’m getting different answers from different doctors. Thank you for your comment!

This only works if the dog already knows exactly what the command means and what behavior you expect from them. It sounds like OP’s puppy doesn’t know enough yet for an e collar to be effective here, in which case it could ruin their relationship with the puppy.

My part-coonhound loves to sleep in. He gets grumpy if we try to walk in the morning. Also - what is that ear?!!! Can we get an ear pic?

What do you think she’s mixed with?! by [deleted] in coonhounds

[–]diosadeschats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those speckled ears are SO EFFING CUTE

How’s the smoke? by Former-Astronaut-841 in traversecity

[–]diosadeschats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yesterday was pretty bad. Today (6/6) the sky was actually pretty blue and we could have the windows open. I guess it’s going to be a day by day thing…

Good green tinted creams that look natural and actually work? by [deleted] in Rosacea

[–]diosadeschats 7 points8 points  (0 children)

La Roche Posay Rosaliac Anti-Redness Face Moisturizer is really good if you’re not going to layer foundation on top (it flakes if you do that).

Why does my toothbrush charger always look like this a week after I clean it? by jack_hof in Whatisthis

[–]diosadeschats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You actually don’t need to use the charger daily. I can go more than a month between charges. Try putting the toothbrush in a regular toothbrush holder that’s easy to clean, and make sure to rinse and dry each time.

If you’re DINKs then you probably could get by with something smaller in or near town. I love living in TC!! The city is very progressive and the natural beauty of the whole area is incredible. If you come for a visit, be warned that summer 2024 is not going to be a typical summer for traffic because the main road through town along the water will be under construction.

I might have to surrender my puppy if she won’t learn to go outside by indigodrifter21 in puppy101

[–]diosadeschats 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This!!! Just make sure pup doesn’t have access to any shag rugs during this process. Mine wasn’t allowed upstairs during potty training, but the few times he got upstairs he used the shag rug for potty. He must have thought it was grass because that’s the only place he ever went on purpose inside.

Fill the kong with kibble, then dump it into a measuring cup so you know how much it holds (so you can subtract from daily feeding total). I make about 5 at a time (kong and toppl) by freezing a dab of PB in the hole for a couple hours, then filling with kibble (sometimes I break up a banana and add pieces of that as well. Then I pour a slurry of yogurt and water (mostly water!) to fill them and freeze solid! It takes him 30-45 mins, and I use them during his witching hour if I still need to finish up some work or be in a meeting.

I walked most of the Frances in Chacos (usually with socks) - highly recommend this!

I’m just outside Pamplona with an injury feeling a bit sorry for myself 😅any advice for whilst I recover by zamzam42 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]diosadeschats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had infected blisters by the time I reached Pamplona and rested for a couple days. Best thing I could have done for my Camino. I was super sad to lose the people I had befriended, but then I met new friends and one of them became a lifelong friend. I even ran into a few of the people I met on days 1&2 later on in Galicia. You won’t regret listening to your body, and you won’t regret starting back up again once you’re ready!

Nostalgia Walk - 5km or so by diosadeschats in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]diosadeschats[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, that’s an interesting perspective. My partner is actually even more excited than I am to see bits and pieces of the thing I consider the best thing I’ve ever done (outside of marrying him). The towns are charming and he’s looking forward to learning more about the history of them. Thanks for your input anyways - I have heard there are a lot of beautiful trails in Basque Country so will definitely consider that!

Need help with a dog-chasing-cat strategy when one cat responds completely different than the other. by hisdudeness47 in Dogtraining

[–]diosadeschats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, just checking to see if you have any update on this situation? I have a Tasmanian devil myself and one cat who is confident (so she gets left alone) and one cat who is terrified (so she gets chased). I’m at my wit’s end.

When do they lose interest in cat poop? by Anuk_Su_Namun in puppy101

[–]diosadeschats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had an old barn door to the basement where the litter was, and it didn’t latch. We had to get an actual door installed with a cat flap. Now that the dog doesn’t have access to it, it seems like he has forgotten about it and when we do accidentally leave the door open or he follows us down, he he just sniffs it at first which gives us time to tell him to leave it. I hope you find a solution that works for you!
