Roll Call 141!

Anything that’s pays is a real job....don’t let them get to you.

I'm glad you feel better today. Those attacks are horrible.

Hey everyone. How are things today?

I'm good. Went out for coffee with my partner and her friend. We had a good 1 1/2 hr chat about all sorts of things. Was nice to be social for a change.


What is everyone up to?

Hey!
Glad you had a good time.
I went to my grandma, then to see my guy and his wife...she made me brunch, then I went back to grams.
My daughter and I just started our baking.
Up first, cranberry pie. Then cranberry bread, and chocolate chip cookies.

Thank you! I'm going to a nice Italian restaurant tomorrow evening with my family then to midnight mass

Thanks Angelique

How are you doing today?

So so. I just feel like sleeping. I don't know why. I'm worried about my friend. I'm glad you're feeling better today!

I hope everything is okay with your friend

I've been sleeping a lot too. I slept straight through last night. Then took a 3 hour nap this morning

I met my reading goal of 45 books for this year. I could have read much more but my concentration has been bad and I've been distracted so it's been taking me a lot longer to read books than usual.

I finished my first book, Prometheus Bound. Now I'm going to read George Orwell's short essay on Why I Write. Should be good.

That's a lot of books! What was the best one you have read this year? Mine has been Thomas Reid's An Inquiry into the Human Mind and The Deathly Hallows.

Im really upset

The bf is talking about quitting his job and picking up stuff to smoke. Im very upset. He says its cuz hes overworked at work and his manager isnt picking up their weight. And he says the stuff he wants to pick up is a one-time thing.

I dont believe him. I said “you do it once, youre gonna do it again and again”.

So pissed off.

Hes also thinking about going to his old job, that paid less and had barely any benefits.

God im so pissed off.

I would be too. You just moved in together it would be incredibly irresponsible to quit his job unless he has a better one lined up.
Pretty much any job you get is going to feel like you’re overworked. Time to strap on the big boy briefs.

Im very upset. Idk what to do or say to him right now.

Honestly? I wouldn’t address it while I was really angry. Even less so if his emotions are high right now too.
I’d wait until I could discuss it rationally.

Definitely the Lord of The Rings books, I read those at the beginning of the year and loved them so much! (I had already read The Hobbit)

Another is The Binding by Bridget Collins. I won a ARC of it awhile back, it comes out in April. It was a very interesting story, I really enjoyed it

The Binding by Bridget Collins

For mental health related I loved the book " What a Life Can Be: One Therapist's Take on Schizoaffective Disorder."

I wont but i already gave him son angry texts.

So flucking upset.

I didnt see this coming.

Well it is absurd for he’d even consider that right now. I would have had an immediate reaction too. But I’d leave it at that until we were both in a place where we could hear each other.
Last night I bickered with my husband. He freaking mocked me as he was going outside. Honest to god my gut reaction was to chase him and hit him . However my daughter was beside me so I just told him not to get cold on couch .
He came back from getting dinner we were both calm and he apologized for being a ****. I told him I was shorter than usual. I am working and moming and dealing with a very serious issue and shopping and cooking and cleaning for everyone else! Then there’s my health. I’m burnt ya know.
But anyway. We were calm and able to discuss his stupidity and the situation without arguing.

Thank you for this.

Hes supposed to call me soon. Wont know if he will but he WILL be home in an hour or two. So ill just be calm til then. Im already calm right now as it is. Im burning incense.

I just talked to him. He said hes just frustrated and isnt quitting. He said he wouldnt quit unless he had a job lined up. He says hes smarter than that.

But he is gonna smoke.

Glad to hear he was just letting off steam.
Smoking isn’t the end of the world. Some drink and some smoke *

Santa came to see me again and gave me another card and gift, but they had to wake me up lol. Waiting for Christmas to open them.

Thats awesome!!!

Looks like my family’s been shopping


All for ME!!!
