    Mac and cheese?

    One is a big leafy ivy type plant. 'Ivy' seems generic. :lol:
    Forgot what the other one is. Funky looking thing.

    Watching someone I love dearly (my dad) suffer and feeling totally helpless.

    I know that feeling all too well. I’m so sorry.

    I’ve been thinking a lot of about my grandmother’s death a lot recently. She passed almost 10 years ago. I don’t know what has been triggering these overwhelming feelings of sadness and guilt. I think about how she died and how much she suffered in the years before her death and I just breakdown in tears. She was SUCH a good person. So selfless, so STRONG, so loving and caring. I didn’t spend enough time with her before she passed. I was young and self absorbed and in the throes of a deep depression. I should’ve been there holding her hand. She held on for so long because she was afraid to leave me and my mom. I should’ve held her hand and told her “nana it’s okay. You can let go now. Me and Mom will be okay”. She didn’t deserve to suffer and die the way she did. Why do bad things always happen to good people?! I will never understand it.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. Don’t blame yourself. You said you were young and probably didn’t understand the gravity of the situation.

    I know I have much less than a year with my 58 year old father so I call him every day and go see him every day I am off of work. Still isn’t enough. He looks to me for advice and I hate that instead I have to tell him to enjoy every moment he has. Time is so precious.

    Thanks. It’s hard having to be the strong one when you’re internally screaming inside and feeling powerless. I’ve been there many times. There’s no right way to handle these things. You’re doing the best you can and I’m sure your dad loves you for it. He’s lucky to have you.

    I reinjured my back yesterday. To say this is a setback is a huge understatement. Now I'm going to lose a couple more weeks trying to get back to it. I feel like I've been punched in the face so much, that I don't have any chin to keep up. I'm on the brink

    Sorry to hear that Tj.. take care of that back.. you've sure had more than your fair share of punches. I hope the back heals quickly.

    Drew Barrymore for the Ivy because she was in the 1991 movie Poison Ivy.

    And Mr. Spock for the other plant.

    I’m leaving on jet plane, going back to work again. Wondering when and where I should go next for another 2 weeks.
    I tried so hard to make this fit into the song.
    I am disappointed how I have handled myself these past 8-9 months. I wish I could turn back time, and re-do it all.

    Every day is an opportunity to be better than yesterday love. Keep moving forward

    So I work in a place where people die. Part of my job is to keep people clean and safe and comfortable until this happens. I really love the job I have. @toned_thugs_n_harmony knows what I am talking about. But I had my first resident die on Saturday night and it didn’t freak me out or make me sad or feel anything really and I dunno if that’s normal or not. That’s what I am thinking about

    Someone with better knowledge will know than me. But i think 1. Knowing you are there to help them stay comfortable during this difficult time will help knowing its their time to pass. And 2. Some may effect you more than others. What you do is amazing. They are so lucky to have your smiles there.

    I just had to sit in the same room with an ex.....from work and then drop off paperwork to her and email her. I want as limited contact as possible with her.

    My mistake. A lesson learned.

    Would you fix this in the same way that you told me you fix printers?

    Of course, it's an unwritten benefit at work.

    Is that not what I'm supposed to do when I get booty pics?
