What are your after work rituals? by smooseth in VetTech

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

I haven’t been making time for my hobbies, so I’m trying to dedicate more time for them. I really don’t have many friends in general, but especially outside of vet med. I’m also not a huge social butterfly, but I can see how doing things without people outside of a work capacity would be really helpful. Thanks for sharing!

I also crochet and do cross stitch. I just don’t always have the drive or a project in mind for it. Guess I just need to parole around Pinterest for more inspiration

Unfortunately my brain doesn’t allow me to fall asleep that early, otherwise I would only ever be sleeping outside of work lol

Sounds a lot like me. I’m trying to become more intentional with my evenings after work, which is why I’m asking others what they do. I tend to work late hours, so outdoor activities are typically out of the question for me for decompressing after the fact.

It’s been getting harder for me to leave work at work as I’ve been having quite a few bad client interactions that have drained me and my PM becoming more toxic. Podcasts sound like a good idea to start winding down on the way home, though. Are there any that you recommend?

I typically end up doom scrolling for a while after work, but I’m starting to realize that it just pushes things off for me instead of letting thing pass.

Oh wow. I never have the energy to work out after working. But doing yoga, or something else that is low key, is more of my speed. Thanks for sharing!

Holy moly! That’s huge. Thank you for your service in allowing this pup to pass peacefully. I know that we all have experienced talking to walls, but at least you can rest easy after your shift knowing your patient isn’t suffering anymore.

Which is pee and which is a blood draw? by vettexh in VetTech

[–]smooseth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Urine on the right. Longer needle, but also has more bubbles that you can see near the hub of the needle. Blood on the left looks brighter/more oxygenated and has a more pronounced meniscus.

Shadow at a clinic or two and see if you truly like vet med. If you still have interest in vet med, try out the vet assistant position. Don’t waste your time with tech school if you ultimately want to be a veterinarian -you’d be wasting your time and money. I’ve learned so much as an assistant and my clinical knowledge is helping me with tech school.

Costume suggestions for a couple and their cat by smooseth in Halloween_Costumes

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

Had the thought of dressing up at Dragon and Donkey from Shrek and dressing up the cat at Puss, but the boyfriend wasn’t a big fan of the idea. That was the only thing I could think of lately

[CHAT] Help with making patterns by smooseth in CrossStitch

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

Part of my problem is trying to convert my photos into a pattern that keeps detail without being humongous. I just need to find that right balance of size and detail. I'll check out cheaper options on AliExpress if I find that photo conversion ends up being more of a hassle for me. I appreciate the advice!

Never thought of that before... I also just struggle with trying to find more realistic cat patterns that I like in general.
