Huge huggles. Do you still have my #? Don't hesitate to call it. I understand.

Thank you. I don't anymore, and it's not that I want to talk, I just want to sleep all the time. Dealing with people in person is so overwhelming.

I understand that we all have different likes/dislikes dog wise aesthetically. I get that and I don't think I'm too sensitive about it, that said I received a anonymous message on tumblr that was just really judgmental about Merlin and his structure and looks and coat and I hate how much it stung to read the person didn't even sound angry, just informing me that my dog is all wrong and why. I just hate that with the amount of love I have for him and the amount of people that compliment him, this got me as much as it did. I know nothing about structure or coat I just never saw him as anything less than perfect and never hesitated to post pictures of him and now I just feel weird about it. I still think he's perfect but it's weird thinking there are people seeing pictures of him just being happy and making such harsh judgments.

(((((HUGS)))))) Merlin is the most gorgeous Aussie. Well Snitch maybe ties with him. Screw this lady. He's not a conformation champ, he doesn't need to subscribe to some crazy standard of perfection. Plus, his coat? He's a BABY. His coat will be overwhelming at 3.

I have never had to deal with anything like this Nolu, so I can't offer any advice, but I want you to know that many of us are hear for you , and I hope you get your meds figured out.

Thank you <3

<3 Nolu.

<3 you back.

If its not working tell them you want to try something else. Not everything works for everyone. If the dr keeps saying give it time then get another because you should be feeling better from meds started in nov.

Thinking of you! If you lived closer I'd tell you who the good drs are but your a bit far lol! Doesn't hurt to ask around though. People call at work all the time and ask who we reccomend for psychiatrists so doubt your local hospital would be shocked if you called and asked.

I was feeling better! Then it's been down. Then we fixed the dose and it's been up and down. I think I will call Kaiser tomorrow.

I know that feeling, I have felt like that a lot.I'm sorry your feeling this, it sucks.

I really hope things start looking up for you soon. & I hope you will quickly be to find a dose or medication that works for you.(((((HUGS)))))

I'm always here if you need anyone, feel free to PM me.

Phase 1 of my summer move is complete.
The bedroom is TOO SMALL to not have the bed against 2 walls. Which means I have to crawl over Josh every time I need to get up.

And I think I might be allergic to one of my new bras. Great.

 

[ruffiangirl]

I pulled a calf muscle in agility class tonight...on my first run. It hurts and it's all bulgy and hurts.

That was our setup at the apartment. When we were setting up our bed here, I made sure I was able to put it in a way that left both edges of the bed free. This was the conversation we had.
(Him) "Why aren't you putting it up against the wall?"
(Me) "Because I want to be able to get out of the bed without having to crawl over you."
"Why?"
"One, I hate feeling like I'm going to wake you up and then I end up not getting up to get a drink or go pee and lay there in misery. Two, it's annoying."
"Oh. Well, don't worry the first part. I like being woken up by you crawling over me. *insert boob comment here* But do whatever you want."

Boys are idiots. :rofl1: And the bed was NOT placed along the wall. Ahaha

How poorly adjusted do you have to be to go to someone's tumblr to anonymously tell them their dog looks wrong??? I would understand more if you were constantly on about how perfect his conformation is, but it's pretty clear that you focus on his SD and pet qualities, not whether his fur is voluminous enough or whatever. weeeiiirddd.

For what it's worth, I love seeing and hearing about Merlin. He looks so sweet and happy and friendly, like the kind of dog a stranger could love on and play with. Plus I think his markings are pretty rad.

Please don't stop posting pics of him!!

I'm really, really stressed out because of work/school, and I'm having a problem correctly interpreting people's tone via text. I feel like everyone is yelling at me. It's horrible.

 

[DJEtzel]

My job sucks and I can't wait to be a stay at home wife and sew all day and never have to answer another phone call or deal with dumb/crappy employers ever again.

 

[teacuptiger]

I am somewhere sandwiches between being impatient for the last Lux book's release (in August), and... Really not wanting it to end because I love the series like HP.

Also, if anybody makes movies for the Lux books, I am going to be so mad.

I don't think that asking that people stop slamming doors should be met with "find somewhere else to live".

It's not even that I make bad life choices. There are just no good life choices for me to make. Living here means I have work, Rick can work, we can drive, we don't need to be scared of our neighbors. There aren't drive by shootings and break ins. My PTSD is usually less symptomatic. We can actually afford to eat and get our prescriptions. It was quieter in WA, but it was also a disgusting hoardy moldy mess.

In both places the people we live(d) with are rude, condescending, and outright aggressive. Every single day.

I would just like a functional family at least some of the time. Is that too much to ask for?

In my family the answer is yes. I know how you're feeling... I don't think we've talked about my family? I have some stories that are just.... What?!?!?!

The only thing I can say is use everything you are feeling like now to make yourself successful. On days where I swear I can't get out of bed I remind myself of something that really upsets me and tell myself if I get up, I'm working to get away from that... If I stay in bed I'm choosing to live with it. I always end up getting up. LOL. I have a year yet before I'm able to apply for state licensing.... Then I can finally leave! But I used all those times that made upset for motivation.

I think to a point you really just have to suck it up and accept that it's not your house so you can't expect things like, you know, people to be respectful. It seems like it's not a big deal, but. Well.

I could say more except it will just frustrate me more because I HAVE a house that I bought so I wouldn't HAVE to deal with other people's **** anymore, and said house has me with no money, and yet I still can't even move into it.
So.
yeah.

You just have to make a plan to get yourselves into a position where you can get your own place, and then other people's **** will be other people's problems and no longer yours.
And hope it works out.

I know. I was just hoping for a little more of a grace period? My mom left me a nasty note the first night we were home lol

It's supposed to snow here today and Monday....wanna trade.

YES! Please!

 

[ruffiangirl]

YES! Please!

Sweet! It's May and we have no green at all, grass is still brown, no trees are budding, no flowers at all, it's just gross, in fact I think it's fall again...yep it's fall.

 

[JazzyTheSibe]

I'm so pissed right now.

Prom's tomorrow. We got a alteration,& now the zipper won't fully zip. Plus, we discovered that security tag is still on.

 

[SoCrafty]

So. We are back up to 50 hours a week at work. Plus every other month our shift changes for two weeks from m-f to t-s. So one weekend.is a 3 day weekend, on weekend you only have one day off.

Having that schedule change + the extra 10 hours + trying to plan a wedding + cat sitting...I am EXHAUSTED. don't get me wrong, I adore my job, I really do. It's just recently, there is so much more to it. And. I have to figure out what I am going to do. Fiance doesn't have cable internet. I need it for said job. It's going to be either selling his house and moving (which, let's be honest, is just never going to happen because I LOVE it), or going back to the office and driving 2 hours each way to work (plus working 10 hours per day...so...that leaves time to eat...shower and maybe sleep),or I rent something and don't live with my Fiance during the week after we get married.

I have so much on my mind. I can't sleep. Can't focus on every little thing. Which leads to tonight. Pretty sure my boss thinks I'm going crazy.

Anyone have any tips on how not to worry and how to focus better?
