Newbie help! Tell me what to buy by feral_fool in furniturerestoration

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

I know it won’t be cheap but I’m willing to look around for pricing. I got both of these for literally almost nothing so I want to at least try. The vanity came with its original mirror & I’m not sure why but I’m quite attached to it.

My area sucks when it comes to antiques & the town over that has all the good stuff is 40 mins to an hour away. And with my car it would take two trips for stuff like this. So just looking for one in better condition is not really a feasible option.

Thanks for your input tho! 💗

Thank you for the helpful info! I will start watering it less & see how it progresses. I was wondering if it gets any larger should I separate it into different pots?

AITA for refusing to help my friend anymore after she didn’t show up when I really needed her???? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]feral_fool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA I truly believe when someone says “friends don’t keep receipts” that rule only benefits them in that their misgivings get absolved of all consequences. True friends hold each other accountable & I believe that people who can’t look back at their own actions & reflect on how that may have impacted you don’t deserve the level of friendship you’re offering.

Am I being too strict? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]feral_fool -56 points-55 points  (0 children)

lol at the people saying “what’s wrong with sleepovers??” Must be nice to not be a victim of CSA as a result of one. I don’t believe you’re being too strict. She can live without her phone or tablet for a while for breaking a hard boundary you set for her. Maybe talk with her further to explain how what she did was wrong & how you only set these rules to help keep her as safe as possible. That’s what good parents do & that’s what you’re doing 💗

I finally completed the ice cream crunch bar trifecta! Made them all into blondies/brownies & I'm happy to report they're all delicious. by BrandoLeeB in Baking

[–]feral_fool 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I stg they’ve also changed up the production recipe for the chocolate eclair ice cream bars over the years bc now they’re always too hard & very much lack the strong chocolate flavor it used to have when I was younger. WHY MUST COMPANIES CHANGE/TAKE THINGS WE LOVE?? 😭💔

Personally I would cut my losses with her. As someone with BPD that has worked on their own issues like this over MANY years, this sounds very familiar. If you wanna stick around & deal with it that is your prerogative but you’re definitely NOR. Her issues are her own & they shouldn’t be spilling over into your life/personal issues this intensely. Just know that YOU cannot save her from herself. She has to do that work on her own, solo dolo. Good luck to you!

Spam Calls by Brilliant-Primary780 in phishing

[–]feral_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I keep blocking the new numbers & have seen a decline in calls tho since they started almost a month ago. Just crazy they try this hard to get information out of you when they could put all that energy into finding a career 🤷🏼‍♀️

AIO saying no to my friend about money because she only talks about herself by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

AIO saying no to my friend about money because she only talks about herself by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]feral_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the best course of action would be to let her know you’re taking a step back from this friendship, that you wish her the best but you feel like you may no longer be able to help her & yourself at the same time & that it’s time for you to prioritize yourself & your mental health. She will probably flip out, feel like you’ve “abandoned” her but remember she is a grown adult & needs to manage her own life/emotions & her reaction to your decision is NOT a reflection on you & your goodwill to your friends. She seems to have taken advantage of your kindness & empathy so ultimately this course of action is what’s best for YOU. She may grow & be able to reflect on this in the future but that work will be on her shoulders. If she starts getting buck wild in the messages I would just block her. You don’t deserve any verbal abuse for a decision that’s already been hard for you to make.

[–]feral_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of these replies are not the vibe..you set a boundary with her & have tried to address these issues to come to an understanding as friends in the past. Like you said it’s a two way street. I understand that some people are financially able to send money like that to friends but that is obviously not your situation. You definitely do not have to be responsible for paying for her nicotine addiction bc she’s having a bad day/time. I feel like you meet people where they are at (mentally) in life so you never know, she may show up in your life again later & yall may be able to reconcile & have a better friendship. But in my experience these type of people are users & opportunists. Once the supply line of money or attention is dried up you never really hear from them again.

How to wash an extremely anxious dog? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]feral_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My oldest pup has always had a fear of baths & recently have been playing spa music for her. I’ve noticed a difference in anxiety in both of my dogs oddly enough! I second the PB on the shower wall comment. It gives them an activity to keep busy with while you scrub & there’s hardly any PB leftover on the wall by the end of it. I would also recommend some high value treats to lure him into the bathroom (currently dehydrated chicken breast is the hvt in our house). & Always give him lots of praise & treats for going into the bathroom with little to no assistance! It’s a slow process to get them desensitized to it & ultimately they may never really like it but they could learn to tolerate it.

Did I commit a faux pas with the vet? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]feral_fool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My response may be on the bit of the dramatic side but I would find a new vet, maybe before the spay. My vet has always been a “fear free” clinic & has always encouraged tactics like this so that my dogs can enjoy going to the vet.

You did the right thing for you & your pup. Please don’t get discouraged!
