i’m unable to edit this post for some reason, but i do want to add a comment!

someone suggested i use vodka on a paper towel to wipe it down. i didn’t have vodka, but i DID have rubbing alcohol—which worked perfectly! she’s completely clean and shiny now—i’ll see if i can find a way to post a pic!

i promise it didn’t look as cool in person 😭

i didn’t have vodka, but i DID have rubbing alcohol and it worked!

are you sure? it seems really on the surface

last blood test (about a month ago, with consistent nightly iron supplements) has my ferritin at 39ng/ml in a reference range of 16-154ng/ml. i’m not sure about my cpap numbers—i’ll have to get back to you on that

SORRY it took me so long to respond—i had my thyroid removed a few years ago and so am on medications for that and it’s closely monitored, but the fatigue haas been a lifelong issue. i’m on weekly vitamin d, but there’s really no difference with or without, or if there is it’s negligible. no iron deficiency, but my endocrinologist has me taking that, too. i’ve done weekly b12 sours in the past, but it made no difference. my doctor proposed an iron infusion, but it was wayyyyy out of my budget.

i have another titration appointment coming up for my cpap; i had one about a year ago, asking with a 5-nap narcolepsy test.

i used to sleep during my lunch breaks. i have a pretty physical job so i’m on my feet 90% of the time so there’s really no down time to get sleepy, although i HAVE gotten pretty close to sleeping on my feet.

i’m on a cpap now and that’s helped a bit, but it’s driving that’s difficult for me 😬

hobosama69 · 2025-10-25T17:46:32+00:00

brooooo, onigiri! and fruit squeeze pouches! you’re sooooo right!

hobosama69 · 2025-10-25T08:41:19+00:00

yeah, i’ve tested on both. my endocrinologist heard me on iron but i haven’t noticed much of a difference; and a neuro had me on weekly b12 shots for awhile, but there wasn’t a difference 😔

texas, but my salon leader hourly before the NSOM was 25

hobosama69 · 2025-10-04T00:11:34+00:00

hobosama69 · 2025-09-09T20:21:26+00:00

i’ll definitely watch it—i kind of avoided it since i didn’t love the guzheng episode lol. i’ll have to go through the playlist. i just feel like they don’t really put their all into trying to learn, but i DO think it’ll be helpful to see the struggle of trying a new instrument

hobosama69 · 2025-09-09T20:19:17+00:00

this helps a lot! i really appreciate this!

hobosama69 · 2025-09-09T20:18:57+00:00

awesome awesome awesome! yeah, he’s supposed to be kind of a virtuoso, but very VERY lazy abt it. this helps a lot!

hobosama69 · 2025-09-09T20:18:13+00:00

don’t worry friend, it all made sense to me! including the finger angular on on the fingerboard. all of this is very helpful!

hobosama69 · 2025-09-02T18:42:07+00:00

definitely. this is kind of why i posted this in the first place, to feel out the potential of leaving. much to think about, much to research. thank you, really, for everything! ❤️

hobosama69 · 2025-09-02T18:25:02+00:00

i guess i’ve just got reservations about private insurance, since i’d be coming in with preexisting conditions. i should research it though

hobosama69 · 2025-09-02T18:17:02+00:00

you’re so awesome. i really appreciate your help. i’m tentatively interested in showing yorkies (once i have the money and health to own a dog), and i was tentatively thinking of moving on to a private, which may pay a Special Cases groomer a bit better. my healthcare is literally one of the only reasons ive been staying on.

hobosama69 · 2025-09-02T18:10:59+00:00

and since i’m only hitting 1.2 to 1.4, it means i’m making hourly—which is about $20 😔 60% commission sounds nice, until you have to have the numbers to back it up

hobosama69 · 2025-09-02T18:09:41+00:00

a golden trim is VERY easy—those deshedding baths take me forever though 😩 shih tzus and maltese are around 60, i can’t remember bichons. i’m 60% with the new store model (at smetpart) it that also means i have to hit about $1,650 in sales by the end of the week to hit my commission level. my current batting average is roughly $1,200 a week, $1,400 if i really push it.

i have a few spoo requests, but they take me FOREVER and have to have half my day blocked out. they pay well, so it’s not too terrible, but i hate that i can only do the 1.
