Do no harm, but take no shit. Be excellent to each other!
Goodbye, Blue Sky. I honestly thought that this would be a better experience than FB. But I had a nice curated FL on FB. (Other than groups and ads, that is.) I feel like this is more politically intense even with mute to curate my feed.

Too much like x.

It's just not for me.

Love you all.

I hate that insta only lets me share to facebook...

I just wanna say though... My mom thought Patrick Swayze was so hot,

At my age now? I get it.

I get it mom.

Does anyone have any advice, or links to information and tutorials for someone who knows *nothing* about apple computers and/or business suites?I need to learn it fast. This job I am interviewing for uses Apple. It is my greatest vulnerability for not getting hired.

Thank you in advance.

These are amazing. I am in love.

I have no stomach distress whatsoever (no whey), and I tend to do better with UHT and ultra-filtered dairy. They conveniently give me the protein I need, and they are smooth and tasty. I wish I could afford them all the time.

I get a lot of info from the internet, reels, memes, and such about Perimenopause.

But as a POST-menopausal woman (early bit, but for over two + years now.)

I want to hear from the crones.

I had a phone interview today with a different remote Medical Assistant position, I made it to the second interview on Monday.

Mock / RP with a potential supervisor ugh.

But I really need a job.

Holy shit.
I have always been resistant to letting my insurance company track me for good driving habits. But I opted in this time, and am saving over $1000 a year.

Some good news?

Solid foods have returned to the diet. Meat is still not there, but there was not much there to begin with.

Also, it is 11:11

So lucky today. lol.
Drove my *expired* van with a broken right indicator. Managed to miss my timing on a yellow arrow for a left turn, and ran a red one. There was an ACAB on the other side of the intersection. But I did not get pulled over. Such a close call. lol

Norbert died, guys.

I am crushed.

I think I am minimizing this platform too. There is as much anxiety-provoking content here as on Meta, Just without targeted content, and great campers. I can find my own news when I feel I can I just don't know what avenues are left to connect with my friends.

Keeping insta and messenger for now.

One more thing.

Since I stopped HRT to avoid having those medium periods-like symptoms, my hot flashes have come back with a vengeance. Last night I was stuck to my sheets. I counted 4 total hot flashes/night sweats last night

What a choice. At least it is made for me as I am uninsured for a bit.

Oh no edit option here, so...

The job market (for me) is dry right now. My best shot for me right now is my old remote job. They were pretty willing to rehire, but it has been a while. I start school in March. I wish I could afford to work remote or just part time (More in comments.)

Feeling much better. Still having trouble with solid food though. as a Weight loss surgery patient, that is concerning so I might go back to the puree liquid diet for a while. Even a little pot of yougurt with probiotics really upset my stomach for a while

Anyway, how you be?

Feeling just a little better. I can keep fluids down, and have a few bits of the noodles out of my chicken soup. I've stopped shaking with hot/cold/both flashes My Intestinal demons have not gotten the message yet. oy.

Poor daughter started in with the vomiting last night. It's a rough flu. :(

Feels so good to have a fully clean scalp and hair.

It's the little things that are big things.

.... and one of my top 3 bands just announced tour dates, and I can't go because my life sucks now and not in August.

Puts head between knees.

The gas has finally been turned back on. You can feel warmth moving through the house already. When Hubby called this AM he was put through to a helpful agent who said "This should have been done right away." the first agent we spoke to tried. The second was just awful to us. 3rd, did it.

This time the election has hit me harder than the first. I Had the comfort of underestimation then.

Now I Keep crying at random every time I think about it.

They told us we lived in the Land of the free and the home of the brave. Free? Pretty much not. But even if I cry I will be brave.

Observe, object, obstruct.

Pay attention to what is going on.
Vocally object and loudly oppose that position.
Do everything in your power to tie things up, so they can't go anywhere.
Harm reduction may be the key to survival.
