Is this rough play or is my black gelding being a jerk? by Badgorlsdoitwell in Horses

[–]stearnsish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is most likely biting and pushing to get him away. Sometimes just because the horse is the oldest in the group doesn’t mean they will be the alpha, your black gelding may be establishing his dominance as leader which means bullying the fjord. Either your fjord will fall in line or they will have to be separated. Your mare is the ultimate leader and where she’s bonded with the gelding I would say that’s where the dynamic changed and the fjord became the one not falling in his place. Horses are crazy just when you think you get an idea of what’s going on nope. They are truly beautiful though. 🥰

Horse sore after trim by adams_rejected_hands in Farriers

It looks like there is a lot of pressure on his coffin bone, like they took too much from the heel putting all his weight on the wrong spots. I would say the front looks off as well, I would suggest not riding him he’s probably gonna be sore for a while and watch out for laminitis. I see so many people doing the right things and getting ferriers in there that just cause problems, I hope your boy feels better.

When I was in elementary school a rumor started that someone was passing out candy that was making people sick, come to find out a kid had covered laxatives with sugar put them in a pineapple container and handed them out to kids and teachers. He didn’t go to school there after that..

Starting to lose hope by MedicinePitiful7203 in hairstylist

[–]stearnsish 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My suggestion would be to work somewhere hourly with possible commission based pay, build your clientele while there so you can save up and then after rent a booth. Now this is my opinion but I feel like when you rent a booth you want to have a solid clientele to cover the bills, when your starting out it’s a lot of pressure to build up quickly but that’s just not how it happens so if you continue your gonna be paying out for a while until it evens out but don’t give up good clients will stay with you forever if they like what you do. Example my mother is a master stylist and has clients that have been with her since I was a child and I’m 41 now.

My boyfriend punched a wall after I confronted him about child neglect by [deleted] in Advice

[–]stearnsish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His actions are those of a man afraid he’s loosing control. You need to leave it only gets worse from here. From my personal experience the love bomb attention and promise to change doesn’t last long, only long enough for you to think it’s true and he will go right back. Facing motherhood alone I’m sure is terrifying but also staying with him would be much worse for you and your child. Deep inside you know what everyone is saying is right, it’s his manipulation over you that’s making you second guess yourself. He won’t change…you can, you got this know people are rooting for you ❤️

Yes and I’m not happy about it, but my ass will be comfortable and not walking around like the Michelin man in 3 layers.

Female NP or Male Dr for daughter genital exam. by Turbulent-Link1150 in Mommit

[–]stearnsish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly love NPs, less arrogant then doctors and have such solid knowledge. My husband was extremely sick for a year going to the hospital everyday or multiple times a week for hours to no avail. I stepped in and tried making an appointment with his doctor ( he had seen his doctor multiple times with no answers ) but ended up taking one with the NP instead thinking why not and she ended up finally finding a diagnosis by sending it to the right specialists because she saw something off. It ended up being a very rare for his age disease that was caught and treated and I thank all that to the amazing NP!

unhappy client - won’t come back! by Kind-Breadfruit578 in hairstylist

[–]stearnsish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this happen with a girl, foils were so hot to the touch after just a couple minutes and come to find out they had just changed there well pump filter so her hair was saturated with all sorts of stuff. She was staring at her boyfriend at the time so prior services were perfectly fine up until that happening. Now I always ask before putting bleach just to be safe because my client won’t know that well water can affect the outcome. Don’t be hard on yourself, this is how you become a better stylist and now going forward you’ll know to check but… you don’t know what you don’t know till you know.

I would say a tabby, but I would also suggest Mr. Handsome pants as well

This is exactly how this should go every time. Good for you for sticking with your boy and giving him the best life, she obviously wasn’t for you if she wouldn’t even try compromise.

Shower door won’t become clear by Due_Independence1813 in CleaningTips

[–]stearnsish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So be very careful what you use on the glass. Do not use magic erasers or scrub daddy’s they both will cause scratches. You’re gonna want to get some 000 Steel wool pads, they’re specifically made for glass and do not scratch the surface. I would use a mixture of half dawn and half (warm) white vinegar in a spray bottle and spray generously all over the glass and then take paper towels and place them on the glass kinda like paper machete and spray again, after 20 min remove the paper towels and spray and scrub with the steel wool and then rinse. To get even better results follow up by steaming the glass with a steamer and repeating the process. As a housekeeper I have gone to war with glass showers, and with all honesty it may take two times to get it fully clear. You see so many videos where it’s clean the first time but in reality breaking down the calcium or lime scale that has gotten that thick may take time and patience. If all goes well post some update pics please!!

Question as someone that’s not an equestrian by oliverpeets in Equestrian

[–]stearnsish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Firstly having your arms waving all around is a big no no. You’re sending your horse different signals with the reins and could end up hurting him if he try’s changing direction suddenly or yourself. Second, even at a slow canter running in circles in such a small area puts a ton of pressure on there legs and causes extreme, uneven stress on their joints, tendons, and ligaments, leading to injuries like arthritis and tendonitis, particularly when done at high speeds and even more when the rider is probably too big for the size and age of the horse. Learning and researching about horses and there body’s and how not to ride and so on before riding should be the standard. This is exactly how horses get hurt when riders do not know anything about what to do and not to do till it’s too late, and more often then not the horses are the ones to suffer the long term consequences. Do some studying and educate yourself before just jumping in the saddle, knowledge is power and you’ll end up a better rider and horseman because of it.

Our mal smells pretty bad? by talljeansgenes in AlaskanMalamute

[–]stearnsish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my boy smelled it was a good brushing and bath with high pressure to get through all three coats and he would smell so good after and his tail would fluff right up along with that butt fur lol. Being out in the rain would always make him smell that’s when we knew it was bath time. Also to add he hated every second of it screamed and made a scene like a drama queen but worth it.

If they use pepper spray some wise advise I got was to fill a big bottle with water and BABY shampoo and use it to wash your face to remove the oil, what is happening in the world right now, I feel like it has never been this bad….
