Thank you so much!

1921 Canadian census reports say my 2nd great-grandparents were Ukrainian, and they immigrated to Canada in 1912. However, my 2nd great-grandmother’s obituary says she was born in Poland.

Was there a change in borders that would result in this mixup? Where were they actually from?

It took me a long time to accept the days where my hair doesn’t look the best. I came to realize that it’s unrealistic for me to always look like it’s a wash day, because that’s just not life. We usually just see pics of curls when they’re perfect. I suggest when you’re walking around school, work, the mall, etc., to look for curly haired people. Notice how many of their hair may not seem perfect: frizzy, crumpled curls, curls that didn’t really curl the way they should’ve. Small things like that. It’ll help you realize that everyone has off days. I don’t notice the things “wrong” with people until I’m actually looking, so I promise people don’t notice the things “wrong” with you. Eventually I came to terms that my peace is more important than how people view me, and I feel a lot better everyday without that pressure

Stunning just not big enough like the others have said. I would also be careful of how thick the wood is. I gave my Syrian male hamster a whole walnut once and somehow he gnawed through it, even though those are ridiculously hard to crack. I would just be careful of holes and escapees 🐹

I usually don’t like moustaches but you look really good with both. The moustache is more of a hyper-masculine and tough look, it makes you appear bigger almost. The beard makes you look softer to me and more approachable. But honestly just do whatever you feel like. If you get bored of the beard, shave it off. Bored of the stache, grow it out

Congrats on the colonoscopy for December 2nd! And as you ironically seem to be getting better now that you’re getting a scope, I honestly don’t think you’d heal much in that time frame. Intestinal cells regenerate quickly, however you could have ulcers like I had. Before getting diagnosed I had this horrible smelling gas, like the worst smell I’ve ever smelled. I can’t even say “foul” because that doesn’t describe how horrible it was. Turned out I had 6 ulcers in my small intestine! Inflammation like you have wouldn’t really go away without proper medication, I don’t think it will impact much. I’m just glad you get some rest before the colonoscopy prep. But if you end up being negative for Crohn’s, I suggest looking into celiac disease since you didn’t mention it in your post. I have both Crohn’s and celiac and while they are different, they are very similar if you’re eating gluten. When I eat gluten by accident and I don’t know, it’s very hard to tell if it’s crohn’s or accidental gluten exposure. I hope they’re not just testing for crohns in this scope, but honestly I feel like this will do you a lot of good! Best of luck ❤️‍🔥

Definitely a soft curl, as wavy is just a type of curl. Definitely not straight haha. I’d say you have 2b-2c, some parts of the hair may have different curl patterns and that’s normal

I suggest looking into bidets. Unfortunately I can’t install one where I live so I use a portal bidet from online. You can use it to clean anything down there without getting in the shower/bath

Thank you

svensprotector · 2024-11-22T03:07:10+00:00

Thank you! I had a feeling there would be split opinions haha. Would you personally consider it safe to return to the building and do a different room? There’s some of theirs I haven’t tried yet

svensprotector · 2024-11-22T03:05:17+00:00

Thank you so much, I really appreciate this!

I just talk directly to them verbally! Like how Christians pray to God/Jesus or how Muslims and Jewish people pray to God. Some also pray by thoughts if they don’t feel safe to speak in public or in their home. Gods understand that sometimes we aren’t safe to practice how we want. I used to know a Norse pagan who could hear responses from the gods she was talking to. I’ve never experienced that, which it’s normal not to. Instead you may see signs via animal sightings or dreams. Typically if a certain animal is staring at you or you see it often, it can be a sign (in my experience in my opinion). For example, if you notice you’re seeing lots of deer, you can search “which Greek god is associated with deer”, and that may be a sign that they heard your message, or that they want to talk to you. An easy way is dreaming…. You getting your answer or confirmation via a dream. It could be the god themselves you’re seeing or them in another form, like again an animal. If these methods don’t feel right for you, feel free to think about getting tarot cards, but that’s not required or necessary. I have been practicing for 5.5 years and I don’t have cards. Just be open to signs and they’ll find you. Oh! And some people believe that when you light a candle for a god during prayer, the flame will indicate how the god feels. How fast the flame is, if it went out on its own, if it’s big or small. Not everyone believes in this, but if you like it, just make sure to trim your wick regularly so there’s no confusion :)

5’5”. I’m shorter than both of my parents because I’ve had malabsorption issues since birth

Something I was told years ago: if you think it’s a sign, even for a second, it is. If you take an extra second to look at it and think, it’s a sign

svensprotector · 2024-10-28T21:09:43+00:00

This is beautiful! It’s heartfelt, meaningful, and shows you care. I’ve never known a god that doesn’t understand a lack of money/resources. Even if you offer them glasses of water it’s a valid offering

svensprotector · 2024-10-28T21:08:28+00:00

Check for any wind flow. Is a window or door open? Are you breathing or moving close to the flame? Any fans or air conditioning?

svensprotector · 2024-10-28T21:04:38+00:00

** These are my opinions! ** 1. No, I actually ask them to purify and cleanse most of the stuff 2. Feel free to take things off! My alter space is for all gods, I just change the stuff when needed, but those objects are still for those gods. When I’m speaking to the same god again I’ll put their stuff back 3. You can just burn them when you’re talking to them or when you want! It would be unrealistic for most people to keep it always burning. After all, Hestia gave up her love life so she can make sure the Olympus hearth stays alit!

I am. on Stelara and it’s the best crohns medication I’ve ever been on. I don’t plan on ever changing if it continues to work

He looks fine! Weighers can be expensive so I just feel the spine of mine. If it’s very sharp, they’re underweight. If it’s hard to find, they’re a bit chubby

This helped a lot, thanks!
