we just moved to salt lake city from san francisco, and have a new puppy that needs some training. our other dog went to a school that was 'cesar milan' style - all about establishing alpha and pack obedience. it worked wonderfully, and we're hoping we can find someone similar in slc. thanks!

i used it for years, and then switched to mirena (iud) for convenience (once every 5 years, instead of once a month). within 7 months of using mirena, i started to develop symptoms of hypothyroidism, and recently switched back to the ring.

because of the side effects i had with mirena, i did A LOT of research, and it seems as though the primary culprit with birth control is the rate at which you absorb the hormones. some people don't absorb as much, as quickly, so they don't have the same strong side effects as others.

i love the ring, and have recommended it to countless women over the years, but agree that it's worth trying for a couple months to see how your body acclimates to it. no birth control is right for everyone, and if you notice strange side effects, definitely read up on it online. a lot of doctors will insist that your bc isn't the culprit, but countless women can attest otherwise. =)

sometimes, on very rare occasion, i let my dog lick the scraps off my plate. they.would.die. or at least never eat at my house again. which could save me the arguments over why i don't want formal dining ware. maybe i need to rethink keeping this information away from them.

a lack of compassion. i have trouble being in the same room as people who aren't compassionate towards the world. but i suppose those are the times you have to appreciate them for giving you an opportunity to practice compassion yourself.
