Lots of stuff going on in the brain for a long-term MLPTP missing person :shock:
  • 2 classes away from completing the Master's
  • Getting ready to move across the state - so house purge, cleanup, new house, etc. thoughts
  • Purge includes collection items, so culling various herds is challenging - G1/G3, MH, 80s Jem, etc.
  • Wondering if any of the 2005ish folks are still around. :winkpony:

Thinking of cats...I still miss my cat Cuddles, Hes been dead for almost a year now. :/ r.ip. my best friend. Cant see black and white kitties without thinking of him (they are tux cats) but his sister Marshmellow is still here for now. Ive been trying to take good care of her since shes all we have left for pets at the moment.

I feel like my mental health due to covid is taking a toll on me.

I'm getting mental treatment and medication/counseling but I feel like I still have a lot of days where I'm full of negative thoughts, on edge, sometimes seeking conflict I don't necessarily have the energy to deal with.

It's a huge rollercoaster and I find myself also almost pushing everyone away.

Pre-pandemic I was like this to a extent but it's more now. My ptsd outbursts are far fewer due to treatment but I'm lashing out in other ways it seems.

Covid stress kills my motivation and makes me feel fed up with and burnt out with work too

I'm avoiding taking commissions even though main hair sellers are back on track cause I feel overwhelmed over the notion of dealing with customers I don't know

And with my day job I'm burnt out on it and sometimes I pull up to it and don't want to be there at all.

There is literally no point in changing jobs though especially during a pandemic

:xmashug: Covid, and 2020, suck eggs. It’s like being trapped on a hamster wheel that just won’t stop, or slow, and it’s infuriating. “I can’t get off this ride”

Exactly! That's exactly how I'm feeling lol.

And my daughter gets marked absent almost every day and getting almost all F's in all her classes cause her virtual learning lags and glitches (won't load some zoom meetings or they glitch and she gets kicked out then she gets marked absent)
So I have to constantly chase down all 7 of her teachers to try and get her grades up and absences excused

It's exhausting and stressing me out but I don't want schools to open AT ALL either cause everyone but my youngest son is high risk with underlying health issues

I can relate, I'm emailing teachers every other day trying to find out why they said her assignment is missing, when I, personally, checked and it said none were missing. I don't think there's much chance of them opening here. The schools already sent a letter out saying that there will be no changes before the end of February. I don't work. I don't know how working parents can manage.

Yeah. They keep saying my daughter's missing assignments but she doesn't find any that need done

And I got her report card and one teacher said her attendance is affecting her grade

Only reason I can manage work with this is cause I work evenings only and nothing else

Everything about my job is perfect for this pandemic lol
 
I guess today I was being a bit judgy. Some guy was walking behind me on my way home from the store and I didn't think much of it.

Then he started moving a little faster and I moved to the side to let him pass. Except I noticed that his shadow kept moving in the same directions I went and I started getting paranoid and keeping an eye on his shadow in general.

I crossed the street and I noticed his shadow started running towards me, and I got spooked and whirled around. I guess I musta spooked him too, because his eyes were bugged out and he was giving me this weird look. I shrugged my shoulders like an idiot and said the most intelligent thing that came to my mind. Which was "Uhhh..."

I looked back one more time and noticed he'd stopped until we were a considerable distance before he started walking again. Felt kinda bad for judging him. I mean, it was broad daylight alongside a busy street.

Maybe he thought I was the crazy one?
