It started small for me. I started shopping at Aldi since they seem to be the most affordable for my budget, but that also forced me to change my eating habits because I was purchasing far more produce and healthy foods. I also organized my fridge (thanks tiktok) to help display foods easier and to make the more…

Wow! That's a lot more than I remember as well. Aside from the original, I love all of the peanut butters, red velvet, and pumpkin spice.

*sigh* FINE! I'll get some gold star stickers and make sure they get one by their name every time they walk in :D

I was just wondering these same things! My 3am wake up call is generally to use the restroom. It's hit or miss if I can fall back to sleep or not. Like you, some days I can run on very little sleep. That said, have you ever tried a weighted blanket? They are really amazing and help me to stay asleep after my 3am potty…

It's the being rude that gets to me. I get it. I really REALLY do. I don't like checking people in over the phone because it can lead to mistakes in spelling and insurance info, etc. I also know it's frustrating for the patient because they don't feel well and just want to be seen. However, I have had some really nasty…

Hahaha! I'm internally screaming right now :D Then they can still wait in their dang car like everyone else. Thank goodness too, because this past year working at a COVID testing site urgent care has made me a lot less peopley.

This really does sound gimmicky..... In the chance that it's not, no, I don't relate 100% either. If you are looking for solutions, C25k is great. Jeff Gallowy is also a great running coach. If running isn't your thing, try getting a bike. There's also a ton of different youtube workout videos to help.

READ THE SIGN Seriously....that's what's going through my mind. I work in a medical office. We have been doing this COVID stuff for over a year now. The sign is MASSIVE so you can't miss that you need to remain in your car and call us. And for the love! If I hear "I'm vaccinated" one more time I'm going to lose my mind! 12…

I'm feeling this mood!

Good morning! I was not kind (well I guess that's a matter of perspective) to myself this weekend! Had a few drinks, and didn't eat the best, but man it felt good at the time hahaha! Vacation at the end of this week, and I work 3 12's ahead of that, so I'm just trying my best to not derail too much. I was able to get up…

Pretend I didn't know how to do simple tasks so someone else would do them for me.

This is heartbreaking for you :( I'm so sorry you and your sweet kitty had to go through all of that. I know it'll hurt for a while to come, but I hope your heart finds some peace.

My boy has my heart!!

Gas. Always buying freaking gas. Or groceries. But if I had to go with the last fun thing I purchased, one of my favorite things to do is read, and I especially love going to thrift stores and scouring their used books for authors I enjoy. I hit the motherload on Tuesday and brought home 10 new books!

I love You Can't Stop Me by Andy Mineo

Hi neighbor! I'm in Nebraska

I have been having these same conversation with my daughter. One of her grievances is that she feels her siblings get punished less harshly than she does. However, the difference is, they don't have missing homework, they do their chores without being asked, they don't try to sneak download apps on their phone they aren't…

I have very similar thoughts as well. I have been working at an Urgent Care that has been COVID testing since tests were available. Though proper PPE protocols were preformed, it did not stop some of my coworkers from contracting COVID. About 1/4 of my coworkers contracted COVID, but of course, this could have come from…

Oh man! You have all my respect lol One is enough for me. Her dad and I are divorced, but we only live a mile apart coparent really well. Even after I posted this yesterday, he set me a camera image of her with her sister. She was being nasty to her sister, then started to kind of chest bump her like she was pushing her…

I'm pretty simple with my eating and swear by an organized fridge. I eat a lot of chicken, and a lot of fruits and veggies. I shop primarily at Aldi. When I get home, I will boil a dozen eggs, and leave another dozen fresh. I also dehaydrate some zucchini and squash to munch on during the week. I unpackage and wash all…

This is especially what I needed today! My daughter is in ROTC and has said since she joined that she wants to be a nurse in the military. I am exhausted with being on my toes all the time, but I know how passionate she is with this goal so I cling to the hope that the passion keeps her from getting too wrapped up in some…

I read through most of this thread and there are a lot of insightful people! I don't have a myth per se, but more of a mindset. People who think that what worked/works for them is the only way and that everyone else is wrong. How frustrating for someone who doesn't know any better, and buys into some "fad" plan and gets…

Thanks! Happy Thursday

Thank goodness for that. She's such a good kid really. She's just being 15. Normal.

It depends on what you consider best. I've tried seltzers and I just can't stand the taste of them. I felt guilty for a long time for enjoying drinks like wine, or my beer (Sea Quench Ale by Dogfish Head), so instead, I just make sure I work hard to fit the calories into my meals. My best is balance.

I'm in the same boat. An injury got me down, but I'm slowly getting back at it. I've ran the Goofy Challenge at Disney, and that same year, the 1/2 marathon in Disney Cali for the coast to coast medal. I've also ran the Chicago Half and countless other smaller races. In January 2020 I attempted to run Dopey, and 15miles…

Soooo hi! Not sure if I'm doing this right. I didn't read through everything, I'm just jumping back in with both feet (again). I was on a roll for a long time, and then I hurt my foot during a marathon. Then Covid. Then my gym closed, and blah blah excuse blah. Foot still hurts, but my gym is back open and I'm so glad for…
