Not sure how many people can afford fuel over $5. I know I’m already cutting out most of my extra curriculars to offset it on my budget.

It’s punching up.

Once you get there…I reckon this is just personal experience… but I will say the negativity is a lot less intense. Change what you can. When you achieve your dreams that becomes so much easier because you have the energy. There is a lot of peace in that.

On off days, and evenings I like to spend time mostly at home. Reading, catching up on tv, video games. I do like the library.

I still have my blockbuster card.

Found out she was MAGA. I told her in a few lines why I could no longer be her friend. Then I blocked her. I don’t feel much about it anymore.

Personally I don’t force myself. When I go to the library I walk out with a stack of books. I don’t always get through all of them, because if the content doesn’t draw me in (characters, writing, whatever) I put it down and try a different one.

Become a paid online troll I guess. I have a background in manipulation. And if they get so far as my field, we are truly in the bad place.

So…maybe a little. Like, if they listen to octanecore or country, I will not have a good time with them controlling the car stereo. Same with tv. Tbh I do think similar tastes are somewhat important?

Construction? But I think the hours are long. Maybe some community college apprenticeships programs depending on where you live.

I have a work email, an email with my name for only personal/professional contacts outside work, a sign-up email, and my email from 2005 for some reason that I use for dominos.

Didn’t know they were banned. Just thought they didn’t do them here because the roads are so full of potholes that never get fixed. TIL.

7-8 unless perimenopause is acting out

A lot of people post poor relationships in these places. I am not sure if all of them are real, but the real ones are certainly looking for help and not able to speak to the people around them for whatever reason. In the end we don’t owe anyone a relationship, even a familial one. “Give them a chance, they just made a mistake don’t throw your whole relationship away over (infidelity, abuse, etc), but they’re family” are pretty common and annoying because they make people stay in situations where they are clearly unhappy and are potentially being harmed. If people want to leave, there is no shame in that. It’s annoying on the internet because there is certainly a large amount of bot posts mixed in with real people who need help. Or people who describe horrible abuse and then defend their abusers…feels like rage bait.

Today when I emptied my pockets I had 3 zip lock sandwich bags, a roll of soft Velcro, a roll of scratchy Velcro, multiple hair bands, compression gloves, and miscellaneous paper trash I forgot to toss. They weren’t event half full. My kids have started copying me and walking around with their hands in their pockets which I do just because of the joy of having them. I wish all my pants were like my scrubs. Sigh.

The best bet would not to have them on caseload. Once word spreads, more antivaxxers come, your vulnerable populations and infants are at risk.

Of course. I tend to utilize it across age groups due to some trauma. This is how I became “work mom” at 38, lol.

Dilated all the way to have baby. My body decided that wasn’t for us, so I got the c-section too! I’ve broken bones and it feels like nothing compared to that.

“Be the adult you needed when you were younger” is my version.

10 or so I use daily. 20 or so others I reference occasionally.
