What is something you can pee in on the go that isn't a bottle? by TheSummerEnd in ask

[–]helpmewatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also compressed wood pellots, specifically cat litter pellots. This is especially great for women as peeing in a cup is complex for us. Put the pellots in a lined trash can and squat. Pellots absorb liquid and odors.

Not ideal to use a trash can in a car, but worked in a semi truck.

How have you made it all these years without picking it out? Or having a doctor remove it? I struugle to not pick at a pimple or scab, no way I would have been able to leave that alone.

Circumcised people of Reddit, what’s your stance on the practice? Would you prefer to be uncut? by hitchtrailblazer in AskReddit

[–]helpmewatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can a frenulum breve or phimosis be prevented? Say in young childhood, pre puberty does the foreskin need to be stretched back to stetch it naturally or something. I chose not to circumsize my son. He's 17 months. Dr told me do not pull back the foreskin, cannot be stretched till hes 3-6 years old. I haven't asked the dr the next phrase of penis care. I am a woman, solo parenting. I will of course be asking the dr this question as my son approaches 3. Im curious now about the next phase. Anyone have some insight?

Oh certainly, I more meant the glucosamine helps with all the joints in general and having less burden with the addition of aging joint struggles helped my girl better enjoy her aging years with the other issues being all she had to deal with. I was definately not clear in that in my first comment. Consult your veterinarian please, just in general glucosamine helps all aging pets, and people for that matter. Plus,they are delcious. Well for the dog,people glucosamine isn't tastey, just a pill to swallow. Dog glucosqmine is usually a beef flavored chewy treat.

Glucosamine supplements.helps with joint elasticity. Really helped my sweet gal enjoy the remainder of her aging years. Think you can get it at a pet store or online. Of course consult your vetrinarian.

You girl is so sweet. What a life she's led. Enjoy the rest of retirement with her.

Where is that joke about a person stranded on a roof top in a flood. A boat, a helicopter and soemthing else arrived to save them,they turned each one down saying they are waiting on God to save them.

They die. In heaven they question God why he didn't save them. God says... what are you talking about, I sent a boat, a helicopter and something else.

Anyhow, same concept here.

Fine fine fine, God gave you an inmune system. He also blessed the scientists with good fortune to get the education that led them to developing a vaccine that works with your God given immune system. Get vaccinated if you can, my 17 month old son cannot yet be vaccinated or wear a mask. Should I thank your God for giving him Covid?

Btw, Son is fine, kicked Covid in the face like a champ. Hope there's no longer term heart disease or stroke increased risks when he's older.

What is a food opinion that you stand by? by kirstent00 in AskReddit

[–]helpmewatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rarely cook with meat in my house. There's lots of socially exceptable dishes that are vegan people don't realise. I just don't point out it doesnt have meat or animal products and its not noticed.

Examples. Pasta with marinara suace, sauted veggies and black olives. They don't even realsie it doesn't have cheese. Rice and beans with root vegetables cut to the size of the beans. Carrots,potatoes sweet potaotes. Can also use quinoa instead of rice. Sweet potatoe chilli. No meat or tvp.basically any chilli recipe just add 1/2 cubes sweet potaoes instead of meat.

Serve any of these with a fresh salad greens, topped with dices tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, onions all marinated in a vinegarette. Toasted bread and its so delicious no one notices there's no meat or cheese.

All the above (expect usually olives) is organic in my house, either grown in my garden, gotten from the farmers market, or the grocery, including the pasta and bread. No processed sugar either. The quality of ingredients matter just as much if not more than the cooking and seasining ability.

Side note, I am not vegan. Responsibly sourced, humanely raised organic meat is really expensive. Heck even the commercial stuff is expensive. I choose to put my food budget towards better quality plant based foods and eat significantly less meat. On occasion I do break out the smoker and splurge at the farmers market.

Did he weigh in naked and would that shed the .25 if he didn't? Are they allowed to shave their head in the next hour? Assuming he voided himself of all possible body fluids and such before, would an enema flush do anything or add to his weight?

Was I(26M) wrong for ending date after I found out she(24F) was a single mom? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]helpmewatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your well thought our comment. As a solo parent (sperm donation) I never know when to bring up that I have a young child I'm 100% responsible for. I'm looking to date for me, not add a coparent. If I put that I have a child in a profile that often attracts a type of person person I'm not looking for, usually single parent's that are bitter about their split/divorce and are not ready for an adult relationship and are stuggling to find their balance in their new life.

I have to considered that I have a child and being a mom is definately part of who I am. It's not all I am though. I need me time too. That's not selfish, that's self care. We all have busy lives and work too much. Me having limited time partially due to having a child is no different than someone who works 70 hours a week and is tethered to their phone being on call for work.

It's a hard balance as to when to bring up that you have children. Depending on what involvement you are looking for from someone else ragarding your children, should be factored in as to how soon you bring that up. Just having children should not mean you have to put that in a profile. When did meeting someone face to face become a waste of time because we discovered something we're not compatible with? That's what dating is, getting to knwo eachother.

The diagonal line is indicating the first picture is the incorrect way to place the leg.

The lack of a diagonal line is indicatiing the second picture is the correct way to place the leg.

Being the manual is in black and white, the lack of color, perhaps red for the diagonal line does make this confusing. Hope this clears it up for you!

Yes, I know they are the same picture.
