How is he old enough for that? Unpossible! (Though Squeak turns nineteen in three weeks. So.)
I've been stress shopping lately and justifying it as dressing appropriately for JZ for her memorial. It's somehow both sad and enjoyable, and it sure as hell beats dealing with the clusterfuck that is my family. (Which is a huge, huge, huge clusterfuck, and I might need to pay my parents' property taxes for them, and man, it would be great if they could be in assisted living, but we'd have to sell their house for that, and then where would my siblings who cannot work go? AHAHAHAHA. FML.)
Ugh, Steph, I'm sorry to hear about your brother and glad to hear about your therapist!
Nilly's eldest will have his Bar Mitzvah soon. He'll be reading Book of Esther this Sunday/Monday.
Oh wow, mazel tov to him! (And his parents, I am sure.)
The recipe didn't have a yield and I just follow instructions without any actual thought behind it, so it was only as I was spooning mix into the muffin tin that I went, "....wait, that's a lot."
Oh yeah, that's how I ended up making one million mini-cupcakes from a cake recipe.
Yikes, Plei that does sound like a clusterfuck. Shopping sounds like an appropriate response.

Sorry about the stress (and the stuff behind it, that sounds super not fun) but this is giving me a lot of feels
If anyone needs a little reminder about people being Good, there are a lot here: [link]
Congrats to Nilly’s boy!! ((And how possible time??)
Omg, in Jesse’s link there is a story about a kind co-worker who is a horse!!!

I completely validate this self-care-through-shopping!

I have several questions...
The muffins aren't great and I went to the dentist and I have a cracked tooth and need a crown. The first part of that isn't related to the second, but I'm sulking about everything.
YAY for Nilly's son's Bar Mitzvah.
Boo to family members being difficult.
I have been playing phone tag and other things trying to get the name brand of Vyvanse filled because I found a pharmacy that had it in stock but not the generic. The generic is on back order until late March, early April, or late April depending on who I talked to "or maybe even later than that". The insurance needed a prior authorization. They denied it. I got a recorded message saying it had been denied and I'd get a letter in 7 -10 business days and to see my policy about why. I'm pretty sure it's because there is a generic available. I'd like to talk to someone but I couldn't find any number to call (the number I got a call from wasn't one you can call back ).
I think with all the issues with access and how it stresses me out I'm going to see about switching to a non stimulant medication and see if it will work. I was venting to a co worker I know who as ADHD and he said he switched to a non stimulant med and has been really happy with it. I know YMMV but it's worth a shot.
