Today has been a great day. After being homeless for months my sibling has finally moved into his very first apartment and is more or less completely self sufficient other than getting rides to and from work. The place is far from glamorous but it’s so much more than a lot of people have with the current state of things, I’m extremely proud of him.
Now I just want to keep a close eye on his mental health to make sure he takes the transition smoothly
And also…was going through some stuff and found some KF stickers I never used! Not sure where to put them but they bring a silly smile to my face lol

Recurring strong gastritis can be caused by it

i should've specified the inflammation feels like it's in the large intestine. it's not common enough to be IBD, i think it was just all the fats. we were trying new cheeses so my body might not have liked one

Im fucked I wasn't supposed to be this self-aware




Ooh and it gets better because these are the autistic days of my loser stoner life.
Husband has felt the heat because he has felt spontaneously compelled to get a job but he had a retarded caveat that I am supposed to be a housewife and resigned in never leaving the house.
i didn't tell him to go fuck himself but I did tell him that I still want to earn money and have some independence and in the end he wanted to seem agreeable and didn't fight me.
It's cute he is trying to regain control and failing miserably.

so did he actually get a job?
i have been a housewife my entire adult life, and i personally love it...that said, it requires being able to trust that your husband will take care of you, and provide for all of your needs, and make sure you have money just for yourself too, and i highly doubt that lord assfuck has suddenly decided to man up and take care of you.
tell him that if you are to be a housewife, you want money deposited in your account weekly for food, cleaning supplies, and then a weekly allowance just for yourself.

i wouldnt even worry about doing it the right/wrong way, though... i would just simply leave his worthless ass. ASAP. you dont need him to better yourself anyway, and every day you spend talking to this dipshit, its another day wasted. hell, i would show him your posts here and say "look, even these internet strangers can tell you are a freeloading bum" he needs to feel ashamed of himself.

For the first time in God only knows how many years, I finally have an actual PC, rather than just using my phone for literally everything. Of course the first thing that I decided to do was download Space Engine. Oh my God, I love this fucking game.

I guess it counts as a game, at any rate? It's more of a digital planetarium. It's the only one that I've ever seen that actually does gravitational lensing for neutron stars, so I'm definitely having a great night.

Also causes ulcers. Many years ago had an ulcer. Six-pill Z-pack fixed it right up. Also take a proton pump inhibitor.

this is a stupid problem in the grand scheme of things, but it still annoys me...i have been trying to teach myself how to knit socks for almost 2 years now...ive bought dpns. circular needles, every type of sock yarn i can get my hands on...so much stuff, and ive yet to even knit a cuff so far.

i dont get it either...ive taught myself to do so many different things...i taught myself to sew, to crochet, everything...and for whatever reason, this ONE THING seems to be out of my grasp of understanding. and i can actually do the basic knitting stitches too, so i have no clue what is up.

they have a knitting group/class here in town, but as you can guess, it is populated with blue haired liberal women who have made politics and bitching about everything, their entire identity, so im on my own.
i just want to make some fair isle socks to wear under my ridiculously long dresses, because i hate wearing tights in the summer . that, and ive been spinning up my own yarn too, and my original plan was to start learning to knit in general, and i havent really, yet.

You're taking one down.
Did you sing a sad song just to turn it around?

I don't think any of this will bring @Relinquish back. Now I have at least one DM with a dead man.

Not yet, there's a certification program he needs to get through so the Jury is still out. There's nothing wrong with being a housewife and i've already it for most of our marriage but the problem is that he is realizing that I am trying to regain that financial control and he's trying to prevent independence.

so him not working is a new thing, then? that is better than him not ever having actually kept a job.
i mean...if he is wanting to provide for you and is willing to give you full access to the money, its definitely a start! i hope it all works out for you.

Could you join and just ignore/be polite when needed? I'm sure grey/yellow rocking works on shitlibs

The freeloading isn't even that much of a problem compared to how he treats his significant other, that is the kicker for me. Why bother staying with someone that clearly does not respect, does not love you and is a total asshole? Just from these couple of posts you can tell the dude is a worthless human being and even without knowing his age i think there's some real stunted developement going on. That they live with @Motherf*cker 's mother makes me think they're both still very young and also got married way too young.

I wish you were right but I am an old fucker with a house but we moved back into the family house since my dad has Dementia and he is needing almost full-time care.
I cannot leave dad with these two, they already take a lot of shit out on him and I think I am finally creating a relationship with him.

You think I'm young because I don't seem to have a filter, but chalk that up to not having fucks to give and I'm enjoying bringing you guys along as passive readers and your feedback does help.
Plus, I may be working on a book and this is thinking out loud.

 

[funwithshemales69]

I have a job interview tomorrow, it comes after months and months of basically nothing, well nothing + shower sobs. Wish me luck.

 

[The Feline Solution 2]

You think I'm young because I don't seem to have a filter

I only assumed you were a youngster based on your living situation (Married couple living with mom, i used to know couples like that when i was younger, the housing market has been dire for a very long time in my parts). Only learned from your last post that Dad is living with you guys, my condolences on him having dementia, can't even imagine the extra strain that puts on your current situation and how heart-breaking that must be to witness in general.

Thread tax: I realized i forgot to buy my monthly ticket for public transit this month, was about to step out to buy one for me and GF because i got tons of shit to do the next couple of weeks, then i thought "Wait, we live in the future! Surely they must have an app where i can buy that shit!". Checked the app store, "This app is not compatible with your phone", my Android version is too low (happens a lot but i won't buy a new phone when my current one is otherwise perfectly serviceable for the things i mainly use it for, which is posting on here, reading books and Whatsapp). Thanks for nothing, guys. Gonna head out in the fridgid wastes now, if you don't hear from me again the wolves got me. At least i can get some more walking in for today, can't hurt. Had a good exercise session earlier today but, as always, i slacked off on anything cardio.

Got back on the wagon and started Dry January the week before Christmas. That's going very well, the cravings are pretty much gone but my sleep schedule is still utterly fucked.

In a ploy to fix that, I started taking supplements and vitamins again and finally settled on a solid, regular regiment. Not without tribulation, though.
A couple weeks ago I received the last couple bottles of stuff I was almost out of (omega 3 and l-arginine). I still had some leftover tablets from a previous bottle, so I took those without thinking before I went to work. I clock in and suddenly I start sweating. Dizzy, nauseous, euphoric, all the symptoms of taking an opioid. Weird, because I've been clean for almost ten years.

Long story short, after some trial and error I eventually figured out that one of the old bottles I had wasn't vitamins, it was suboxone that someone traded me years ago and that I'd forgotten about. And I took a full dose two days in a row before I realised it (I subsequently flushed the rest of what I had left).
Completely ruined my days off and left me feeling like crap and is probably part of why I haven't been able to get my sleep on track yet.

 

[The Feline Solution 2]

it was suboxone that someone traded me years ago and that I'd forgotten about

Holy shit, what a brutal mistake to make. I feel you, last year i was going through some old clothes of mine and found a good-sized rock of Speed (eyeballed it as 4g, could've gotten a nice session out of it) in a baggy in one of my currently non-fitting pants, which i must've stashed away ages ago. Flushed it down the toilet as well, regretted it immediately because being an addict is being an addict. Congrats on your almost 10 years of being clean, i am a bit over a year off by now, didn't even notice initially when i hit the 1 year mark, girlfriend had to remind me.

Tax: My walk was nicer than expected despite it being freezing cold outside. I live in the greenest district of my city (one of the greenest in all of Europe as i once read) so i pass a couple of parks when i go to the train station, really pretty to see them all snowed-in. Almost no people outside as well, it was nice. My back is hurting badly now, haven't taken any painkillers today but will have to in a minute.

Allergies are laying me low again

I’m sure you know all this but rinse your face with cool water every few hours, and smear a bit of Vaseline around your nostrils - it helps catch the pollen.
