I’ve thought about this post for a while now. I can’t even begin to remember the last time I talked to him. But it was probably some super in depth discussion about BSG. We had those often. That being said, there is no doubt the shaping of my life by this board - the absolute phenomenal 20 year friendships I have, solid memories and the lesson’s learned. Without this safe space I would not have made it my first year in Michigan. I would not have made it post bullshit. I probably would not have made it through nursing school. Many of the close friendships made here still surround my holiday tables. They still involve late night conversations, bad movies, decent cocktails, love my children like their own, and are some of the most loving and supportive people I have the pleasure of having in my inter circle. Community is not the word- family is. There is a need for safe spaces like this more than ever. Thank you for keeping it up and running. It’s good to know it’s still here to look back on.. and for others that may presently need it, as a safe haven.

I dropped the hammer on a refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad L490, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD (8th Gen), preloaded with Windows 11. I'm out £168, but it would have cost £210 or more from elsewhere. I wasn't gonna sleep on that deal! 😵 Thanks for reminding me to go shopping. 🥰

I'm feeling very concerned for the baby of the family. She is American, but dresses in a manner that is questionable in accordance to this current presidential regime. She frequently leaves the State and there are alerts going around that she can be stopped and imprisoned in certain states for looking like the wrong kind of "American". It also feels like if someone says too much, that people they know are going to turn them in for suspicion of being (fill in the blank). In a sad way, I feel relieved that my mother passed away before she had to relive this situation.

The past month and a half I have been dealing with new chronic back pain and the muscle relaxant pills the doctor gave me have been putting me to sleep at work and I've been so drowsy with them. Weed has helped a little but I can't just smoke weed all the time. So I decided to try some CBD pills I picked up this little bottle after a few questions in the store after a few days this week It has made a great noticeable difference on my back. I don't feel very much pain anymore as im moving around work running around from my workbench to the polishing wheels and so on. I think we should put more funding and research on using CBD for low level pain medication and not opium

I feel like I've been going about things all wrong. I've been so busy trying to live for other people (and those who are no longer with us) that I lost sight of just being me and doing my thing. This thought feels liberating, but putting it into practice feels easier said than done. It's hard to not feel guilty about thinking about myself although that's were personal care and positive mental health grows from. It feels like if I can work on being true to my needs, I will be unstoppable...in a positive manner.

Strut Your Stuff

Happy Birthday

Thank you so much ❤️ I appreciate this.

About to take 2 fur babies to the vet. One's getting a monthly pain management injection and the other is getting their nails clipped.

Holy shit. I am really mentally damaged.
