    @globalhiker I know this place is bad for me. Pretty much all vet clinics are these days. It’s like an industry wide crisis. Covid, staying at home,everyone got a puppy, back to work, puppies get separation anxiety, owner seeks help from vet, there are no longer vets there because they all quit during Covid, prices are up due to inflation, owner of puppy is mad and frustrated, yells at vet personnel, vet personnel quit and work at Taco Bell, no vet to see Covid puppies. Viscous cycle.

    I was going to leave in January after I used my PTO to go to Bali. Then came the cancer and I got scared stiff thinking I better stay put so I have health insurance.

    My ideal job (if I couldn’t relocate) would be to work in a library part time afternoons re-shelving books. I did that in high school and it was lovely.

    I know what I need to do. I do. You always have such wise words.

    @siberiantarragon ugh projectile vomiting sounds just miserable. I’m sorry to hear you are having such wonky reactions to medicines. Those reactions are no joke! I hope you can get the right combination that works and makes you feel good. Then you’ll be doing Snoopy’s happy dance!!

    @joans1976 heck, Starbucks offers benefits now! You can have a lower stress job for a season and then get back into your field. I imagine being a barista is way less stressful. Well, actually maybe not…. People are pretty passionate out how their extra foamy lattes are prepared! Oh and the fun you could have if Narcissa comes in to order a mochachino….

    I am in.

    I am Dawn, I live in SE BC Canada
    My ongoing goal remains, 16-20 AF days per month.
    I had 17AF days for January (a long month)

    I do this diary style to keep track, and I post the next morning

    Sunday Feb 19 - AF - I may have a couple of drinks after my pedicure on Tuesday eve.

    Rolling total: 11AF days out of 19 days. 50% AF won't cut it to reach my goal in 28 days (reminder to self)

    @Michieb125

    Painting your greenhouse? You have piqued my interest.
    I am a gardener (without a greenhouse and no plan to put one in) and want to know everything about when you start, what you put in it, and where you are geographically.
