@Koah: I used to practically be glued to my laptop, but the tables have turned with me working these last several years lol. Usually I feel socially drained by the time I get home since I deal with lots of people for my job. So typically I'll just scroll through Facebook and Reddit on my phone or watch some shows on my various streaming platforms. ^^;

@Wildfire: Right? Like why does it take so long to update things when downloading is so fast now? I'm sure I could just look up the answer to that, but I don't wanna. xD

My day is going nicely so far. I ended up completely vegging out yesterday, so today I'm being a little more productive. Did a little work earlier this morning to make my tomorrow easier. Mondays always hit us like a freight train at work for some reason, so wanna be a little more prepared. xD

@Aisukohi: Exactly... but it's because these programs and apps that we have grown so accustomed to have also bloated themselves right in line with the faster speeds and more memory, etc.

Oh, I'm glad you got yourself a little more prepared for tomorrow - hopefully it will ease that freight train for you!

I was just out replanting a couple things and doing some weeding and now I'm sneezing, despite the shower to get the pollen off me and an allergy med. /sigh/ Why does Florida need to be SO thoroughly pollenated?? XD

@Wildfire: you're definitely right on all accounts. I sat and thought a lot about it last night.
I'm just now getting my foot in the door with the homeschooling community. Next week I got day-time stuff lined up for my son. I'll be able to chit-chat with other local moms and see what other groups/programs they do.
I realized last night, that I have taught my daughter to not gossip much unless it's something that really got under her skin. I don't really tolerate drama. :o This situation just tells me my daughter acknowledges that about our relationship.


good Morning. I got my coffee and I'm likely going to jump into a video game soon.

@Wildfire: Ohh I work with a lot of different mediums, but mostly acrylics, watercolours, and pastels. Plus digital! (still learning though!) I mostly do nature, birds, skulls (weird I know) and fan art lol What about you? Oh, nice! Still, that's a lot, gardening can be a lot of work. I love plants myself! :) Good luck with the project!

@Wildfire: Yup. Sorry that your allergies are acting up. I never had any environmental/seasonal allergies until I moved here. x-x Luckily it only affects me maybe a couple weeks out of the year, but still, it's annoying.

@Koah: <3 Get a better idea of what's available with the homeschooling community in your area, then go from there. :3 I hope you find the support and opportunities you're looking for (I'm sure you will, if the local community is as active as you're suggesting!). Glad to offer some perspective (maybe) on the different relationship you have with your daughter versus the other mom and hers. I see some of the drama with my friends and their daughters and it's astounding, quite frankly.

I hope you got a chance to play those video games and relax a little bit yesterday :3

@Hobgoblin: Oh that's cool. I'm more of a traditional medium artist myself and float between different mediums and projects too. I also do a little bit of digital stuff, but it's not my first go-to when I have the opportunity to be creative. Bird skulls, huh? What got you in to painting them? (Nothing wrong with it, but it is a little unusual and I'm sure there's a story there... )


@Aisukohi: I never had allergies until I moved to Florida. Things are just sooooo different down here in terms of plants and timing and everything!





Good morning.

@Wildfire: Good Morning.
I ended up being a potato yesterday and in the evening, I drove an hour to the city to do some browsing and get out of the house.

@Koah: good... afternoon (here). I went for a walk with a friend and we ended up chatting longer than either of us was expecting, I think...
You have a good reason to be a potato sometimes :3 and it's amazing how much good just going for a drive can be sometimes too, isn't it?
How are you doing today?

@Wildfire: I'm doing okay today. I'm trying to not let the hormones take over. My brain wants to over-think things and feel annoyed with the little stuff and that's not me.
So I'm going to focus on getting my son done with school and then head over to the grocery store to make some stew for dinner.
The drive was good for me last night. I poked around Barnes n' Nobles and bought a western and a very ecchi manga. XD 2 very opposite books. lol.
Sounds like your walk was nice and good to catch up with a friend. :3

@Koah: Oh yeah... I hate it when the hormones make you bonkers... and you know it's hormones, but you still can't do anything about it other than acknowledge it with maybe a "heads up - I'm being X today" to the family XD Good luck, hon. :3 <3

LOL - those are very different books! XD I'm glad you got some time out of the house and to yourself last night <3

It was good to catch up with a friend, and I can definitely do with some more physical activity lately (ugh)... but I'm tired now and am thinking of putting something brainless on the TV while I do some braiding for my next rug. In my defense, I didn't sleep real well last night (still, it's only 2:30pm)... and I'm going to throw some chicken or something in the crockpot... no... it's too late for a crockpot meal... uhhh... well, I was going to do that... *scrambles for easy alternatives for dinner* <---- this is what happens when I don't meal plan. XD

@Wildfire: I'd love to see the rug you are working on. :3
I need to call a friend and catch up with her sometime today. :d

I love crockpot meals...when we properly prepare for them. xD

And I can't stand that hormonal time of month. x-x The crappy part is that I know I'm being a jerk sometimes, and yet I can't help feeling easily annoyed at every little thing. There are months where I feel like I'm PMS-ing before AND after the actual event! Like body, Y U SO RUDE?!

@Koah: Yeah, I could probably arrange that :3 Did I ever post the last one I did?
Did you follow up with your friend? How was your evening?

@Aisukohi: Hormones can be so weird :/
Yeah, the crockpot is amazing if you can get stuff in there and get it turned on in time to cook! I didn't manage to do it yesterday but maybe I'll do it today instead. It's not even 8:30am and I already feel like not wanting to have to deal with dinner later on XD

@another movie addict: Good morning. How was your day yesterday?




good morning

Of course. lol

I was also given homework from my job. Lol I decided to take the 'safety captain' position that was offered to me. And my boss wanted me to read the training manual.

lol. Did you single-handedly save the whole campaign again?

Oh, you did take it! Congrats. What finalized that decision for you?
