Fingers crossed that all goes well, Steph.
Andi, there's a difference between being oversensitive and just being sensitive. The latter is what lets you be aware of your charges' needs and do what's best for their wellbeing, what lets you look out for your co-workers and try to help them be better, what lets you brighten up the day of all the people who interact with you. Being a caring person may open you up to feeling hurt when others are rude or inconsiderate, but it is by far more a strength than a weakness.
{{{WindSparrow}}} We are always in your corner.
Heart~ma, Tep, and rest!ma for you. Nap facilities does sound like a good idea.
I am weirdly excited to learn that I can pay for my train ticket with points. I don't know how I earned these points, but I will be happy to use them!
"he's missing out, I'm eminently likeable."
Indeed!!
Hope that the surgery is well concluded and that your mom is resting comfortably. Sending recovery~ma.
So far, surgery is still ongoing, which we expected. Hopefully we'll get word between noon and 1.
SO BORED OH MY GOD
Lots of operation ~ma. Wish I could teleport you an interesting book or something.
The Trump administration is so depressing. I hate the way he or his surrogates will just stay stuff that's not true, sometimes not even remotely true. I hate how the US is losing influence in the world. It's just... ugh.
I feel like he's the result of right-wing media which is doing so much damage to the country. I mean republicans and conservatives are not bad people, but those who only rely on right-wing media get such a distorted view of the world. There are terrible left-wing media sources too, but I don't think there are many liberals who would discount the Times or CNN or the BBC in favor of Occupy Democrats or Addicting News. Nor do I think Democratic representatives much care what the Huffington Post says while FOX News is a big player in the GOP than the RNC. I'm not sure what can be done about it though.
Right there with you Gud. The situation has cost me family and friends because I just cannot respect people that support Trump. Period.
To protect my sanity I have upped my reading hours significantly. It is making me feel guilty for not being more vigilant and active in resistance activities. But I just can't stay that engaged. The Rage Overload is too much.
Nothing like dropping a container of leftover ravioli, complete with tomato sauce, on the floor. Especially when you're not allowed to bend over.
A dog would come in handy for that.
Steph, I'm so glad to hear the news is good!
