Forums Vibrance Day Event 2021 ┤▒├ Wild Sweet Treats
@Koah: Hey Koah. ... and once again, we find ourselves doing and experiencing similar things at the same time XD <3 I'm sorry that your eye is all swollen from the kicked up pollen, though. My face feels a little puffy too, plus this little sinus headache. You'll figure out what's making you react with time. I didn't think succulents spewed out pollen, but I guess it makes sense that they do :3
@Wildfire: My husband was insisting I talk to our new roommates and get to know them. So last night, while the girlfriend was out working on her car [totally looking like Megan Fox from Transformers], I sat awkwardly and had a conversation with her. Good conversation, but I was nervous and touching plants I never hang around. I popped a succulent. Now I'm oddly thinking I'm allergic to those succulents. They're all over the yard, spreading like wildfire and I was hanging out where they started.
OH wild gossip; My new older parent friend in RL, the one I was initially nervous about, had to cancel our next play date because her 18-year-old son got his lady pregnant. OTL not just pregnant, but twins. She's 17. She's been calling me the last couple of days asking for advice. She's so absolutely overwhelmed.

@Koah: People can be reactive to all kinds of things you wouldn't normally think they'd react to, and it's possible to react to something but not even know it, simply because they're so used to feeling a certain way that it never clicks that there's something else going on. It makes sense that maybe that's what you're reacting to, if you were completely over-exposed to that plant last night. Maybe do some research to see how likely a reaction to that particular thing is?
Oh wow. That is definitely a life-changing thing and I don't blame her for being absolutely overwhelmed - there's a lot of things going on with that situation. It says a lot that she called you, though :3

@Wildfire: It Feels kind of like a "meant to be" type of situation. She needed a friend through this new ordeal and her son's new chapter is quite similar to how my husband and I started out.
I started digging into succulent allergies, it's uncommon. :T which is why they're primarily house plants for people. Basically, if you're allergic to latex, you're probably allergic to the common succulent house plant.

@Wildfire: Yep I might be in semi hiatus here too but there are threads I need to update or make which prob will keep me staying for awhile...
How are you doing today?
@Koah: Yes. I think most of those types of experiences are 'meant to be' in one form or another. It doesn't make it any easier to deal with, though - at least initially.
That's about what I thought concerning succulents!

@Purpsy: Hey Purpsy. Is there any particular reason for your expected upcoming hiatus?
I'm doing ok today. I'm groggy and trying to motivate myself to go do a little bit of yoga or something, but I just ate breakfast... uhhh... lunch... and wanted to give myself a couple minutes before doing anything that might involve being upside down XD

@Wildfire: Hmm most likely I will lose interest posting for a while or something else will come up in the future, a the moment I think I'll be staying :3
Ah I see well I hope you had a good brunch while I'm kind of running out of food here and by food I mean bread TAT and maybe fruits...
Got some mangos though and is ready to eat now.
@Purpsy: Ohhhh mango! You reminded me that I have a honey mango that should be eaten. I just went food shopping again yesterday, so there's all kinds of things in my house atm... but oddly, a lot of stray bits and pieces that I should do something with too - like 1/2 of one zucchini, 1 little head of broccoli, a handful of grape tomatoes, etc.
Oh, I understand - the event is over (despite our still earning sugar cubes) and there are other things to do in life... but if or when you go, you'll be missed :3

@Wildfire: Awee TwT ty! You will be missed also if you decide to go in hiatus too~
Yeah I need to go out to buy groceries soon. We're mostly running out of cleaning supplies so far and not much on food my dad made sure of that a couple of days ago, we just running out of bread and fruits oh and ketchup lmao x'D
Sorry I poofed, RL took me away. Our water was turned off due to some construction down the road.
and I just hyper-focused on my kids' school time and now they're both almost done for today.
aaand, I got into some serious convos with my friend because she's panicking over a job application. I'm glad I have enough life experience to make people feel better in their situations. <3

@Wildfire: yush very yummy
I use eggs for just about everything, especially if i want something easy to cook... i end up with scrambled eggs with something mixed in lol
@Purpsy: aaah... random food stuff :3 Somehow I still end up spending a gazillion dollars when I run to the store for things like that. I don't get it.
Awww <3 Thank you. I'm not planning on taking a hiatus but if I do it'll probably be because I'm focused on getting something else done. :3
@Koah: Wow - you're just hitting all the little weird inconveniences, aren't you? Did they at least give you a heads up that they were going to disrupt your water? Yay on getting the kids mostly done with school though - that's significant! :3 Life experiences are everything. Too many people seem afraid of getting out there and actually actively living life, it seems. I get it, but I also don't. That said, I've been thinking recently that I need to get back in to the "living life / adventure" mode myself :3
@Vixen: lol. Eggs are easy and versatile. I don't blame you for using that as a bit of a default food mode. I had some eggs earlier today with all kinds of random veggies thrown in (asparagus, kale, zucchini) and it was yummy. LOL - your avi is cute today... in a "don't mess with me / I see through your crap" kind of way. Reflection of RL, or just playing around?
I disappeared to do a little yoga, play with the dogs, and take care of a couple things.

@Wildfire: lol, I'm texting with my 18 yr old niece too. She just got her nippies pierced. and I chatted with her through the whole process. XD I hate that I got pictures, I can tell you that. My eyes burn. however, they look good. But as an aunt, I'm like, AAAH my EYES. but as her friend, I'm like "YAY! look at those, they look great!" =;=
Covid definitely stopped my adventurous life. It shouldn't have stopped me from going outside more, but it did.
I got a heads-up from the water company, but I forgot about it. e.e'

@Koah: ROFLMAO! Oh yeah... I can completely picture that... errrrm... probably not the best phrase, given the circumstances XD but I think you know what I mean! It's a weird middle-ground space you found yourself in!! XD You're a good aunt. :3
Yeah, covid was the last straw, but really the kids and hubby stopped most of my adventures somewhere along the way. I'm not exactly sure when or how, but that seems to be the connection and the timing. It probably has something to do with being so worn out all the time trying to keep up with them in all aspects of their social, physical, and educational lives, plus trying to keep up with the dogs and the house that whenever I got time, I was too pooped to do anything! And trying to get them out the door to go have an adventure turned in to a lot of work - too much work. I remember having too many times where it was like "oh come on, guys! Just grab your shoes and let's GO!" but an hour later we still hadn't left and I was tired of trying to pry them out of the house. So I eventually kind of gave up. It's a shame, really. Now, I'm trying to get back out and do things on my own ('cuz I'm annoyed at that scenario^^ and don't need them along to have fun or do things 'cuz I'm "spunky" that way XD) but covid is definitely a complication. *sigh* Stupid covid.

@Wildfire: more eggs and vegetables with rice for lunch today :3
Haha thank you
Hmmm maybe? Not intentionally reflecting RL, but i was going for a bitter “why do I have to deal with this” alice look lol
@Vixen: Fried rice, or just a mix?
I think you hit your goal with the look. It's cute, but also sassy, "watch yourself"! XD <3
How is your day going?

@Wildfire: Haha yep, sometimes you go to the store you some stuff on sale or instantly remember what other items you need despite writing a list down already. In my case my phone because I'm very forgetful.
And np, I'm gonna miss you feeding us delicious foods in the morning ToT
@Wildfire: bitter piratey alice lol
