I love a lot of things from archery to wood working.

Fighting to make this a better world for my kids, just doesn't feel like I'm making progress.
Man I spent the day at a market with my daughter today, I've spent more buying a coffee than she/we have made gross in sales so far all day. Not even a dead market it was pretty busy.

Just frustrating trying to help my daughter.

I'm right in the transition time between x and millenial, I totally can understand how they feel, then I see my parents lean over way more for my younger siblings. Not to say I haven't got any help, it just always seems to be at a convenient time for them.
Gen X has been designated the 'worst grandparents.' Sadly, their explanation makes sense.
The latch-key generation doesn't hate their family, they're burnt out.

Man family can be so tiring. oh man no one remembers how lost and dementia rattled Joe Biden was, how bad things were. And then I think about the last news feed I saw on my phone. Then it's how bad our last Prime minister was and how much of an idiot the new one is. I hate family so much some days.

I just caught your comments on who to vote for, I feel your frustrations. I ended up voting liberal because from everything I've seen about my riding In southern Alberta they had the largest vote outside of the CPC, really didn't matter who else I voted for.

I voted today, just wish I had something more to vote for, not so much against.
