I think the problem with the envelopes is the goal is to high. I think a 1k goal would have been better. I knew I wasn’t going to get back the number of envelopes I sent out but making the goal more obtainable would have been better. I only did one activity since I love coloring.

I don't understand the events, I started to colour in a dragon but it seemed like it would take ages so I immediately gave up and went to wikipedia to research when the first coloring book was invented, it was quite interesting - apparently the coloring book was first introduced as part of a "democratization of art" movement in the 1700s. I tried to picture the 1700's in my head but I couldn't picture it, but I remember thinking that the highway man Dick Turpin was around then and I could picture that, so I looked up Dick Turpin to check - but it turned out he was from the 1600s. I then went on to read about the Great Fire Of London for a bit. I never did successfully picture the 1700's and I never did return to coloring in the dragon.
So like I say, I don't get it.

Hate being forced to go to family dinners while I constantly have health problems. I'm not going to be able to eat much and they're going to ask why and I am so not in the mood to deal with any of this. Not to even mention I can't stand all the hours of talking.
I’ve been spending most of my day doomscrolling and hating myself.
Same, yo
I got a doctor, face to face appointment in the early hours of Wednesday this week. For ongoing symptoms, I've had more than a year; I did go to a doctors about them before, and had many testd but never called to see what tests showed; so going again.
I told my boss I couldn't do early Wednesday, and what do I find in the rota last night? She put me down for that morning shift.
(14 years experience in bussiness aparently, but can't even make a note of her only coworker's one day off wth)
When I told her, well retold her this, she didn't respond. So, now I am having to wait to see if she changes anything agaon or even replies back.
Then before she sent me the the first hours I am doing today (normally I have to bloody ask for the rota), she said 7AM-12PM; but then the rota cameout to 7AM-11:30AM. I dunno if this place is trying to turn me insane.
Edit: I realise, what she doesn't make it any easier is the rota she never mentions the actual dates/numbers. She just puts the day down. So despite telling her the exact date this wednesday, it probably didn't click. Not really my problem though.

To every single family member who has known me for the last 37 years... **** you for forgetting my birthday. It's not hard to drop me a text, send me a message on Facebook or pass one on via my mum. In fact it only takes a minute or so to do, the excuse "I forgot" doesn't fly with me considering how easy is it to contact someone these days.
However to everyone on this forum who did remember my birthday and dropped me a small message on my profile, thank you for remembering and making my day feel a little bit more special.

I hate how often my parents argue (though it’s generally my dad yelling at everyone over nothing)
My mom always has to make multiple dishes because my youngest brother doesn’t eat anything, if we were following his diet we would strictly be eating fast food, pizza, and hot dogs (without any fruits or vegetables), but my dad wants to yell at her because the rest of us are capable of eating proper food
My mom tried taking him to a pediatrician and even she couldn’t fix him, he’s almost 20 so maybe my dad should consider that there’s something wrong with his kid and my mom has tried to get him to eat better food???? Even going to family events with him is embarrassing because we usually need to order pizza or something for him

love of my life 💙💜
spent the day analyzing things I've done in the past and celebrating how far I've come since then, but now I'm feeling really mentally overwhelmed and overstimulated. also keep teetering between being depressed and being hypomanic and it's quite possibly the worst thing ever tbh.
Lord God above, give me some people in my life who are NOT confusing !! Also, I have no gripes with this person, but I wish I was in a better mental state to date someone after they recently asked me out. They're so kind and patient and I wish I wasn't so scared </3 But it makes me worried that I'm leading them on by, uh, being friendly?
I am so tired of seeing people who can’t just drive. Why do they have to be on their phones when driving. Three of my friends got into accidents in the past week because someone else was distracted. I’m so glad they are going to be ok and are just sore. These could have been avoided if people would just stay off the phone . Two of them got hit from behind while sitting at a red light because the other person was on the phone. The third was because the other person was distracted and going to fast in the rain. This one could have been so much worse luckily my friend and her daughter are just sore.
An update to my boss trying to make me come in when I told her about the doctor's appointment.
She did admit she forgot (it was literally the last thing I spoke to her about.) and I tried to make it better by telling her I could take her sister's shift the next day to make up for her. But she said it's fine, and to have both days off :/
Which can be nice, but like, I also have the weekend off, and not many hours on the days I am working, so I'll be losing out so much pay; just because she forgot and rather not pay me. (Apparently her sister works for free, but I hardly can tell if I believe that.)
So once again, gonna have less money to come. I wouldn't mind if I was actually getting paid properly.
Just makes it so hard to save up for anything.
Wanted to save up for mother's day, to buy a new phone or at least some phone online (my old phone is not compatble with Pocket camp, and I miss is so much), need a new camera body part.
I was hoping to buy some cosplay bits for a cosplay I wanted to do for an anime con thing, and also save up for said anime con. And lastly, I am going to a theatre show for Spirited Away, and if they have anything to buy, I would've liked to save up for that!

It's quite tiring how easily angered I get. I was listing out all the bad things my ex did, not only to keep my thoughts in order but to give him less power or something. I ended up becoming extremely enraged at the fact that whatever justice I get won't be justice enough... Unless he ***** ******* but I'M the bad one for feeling like that. I just feel like crap. I hate this emotion so much.
I used to pray he'd change but now I don't want him to. Why'd he never change for me? Why must I be the one to bare the burden of what happened? I hope he doesn't, and I hope that leads to his demise.
Well, yeah, anyway, idk.

Another bother, sorry DX
I am applying for an editorial assistant role for a book company.
They also want not just a CV and cover letter; but also for me to do a book review on a recent book I've read, to convice them to read it, and outline what other books it might sit alongside...I also have like two days haha :')
Thats without working, my sign language class, and art stuff. Crud

This will bother me until possibly march 1st. Hopefully not after.
So, about 15 years ago I had a really bad spell of vertigo (and a panic attack to go with it) while driving on the interstate. It was crazy, but I just thought - huh, that was weird - and brushed it off. I also started having headaches. A lot.
Well, it kept happening, but only while driving. I'd get dizzy, vertigo, panic attacks, just awful. But it wasn't all the time, just once in a while, quite random. And it only happened after I was driving for a while. Plus, more headaches.
Fast forward to today - yeah it's pretty much just part of life now. I don't drive much, sticking to certain routes that don't have bridges, curves, or high speeds. Dizziness, vertigo, headaches are just common, daily things to deal with. The new daily 'normal'.
After 15 years of this, and an insane amount of doc visits (nothing is wrong, all tests fine, perfectly healthy) I just figured this is permanent. (Fr I even had the doc run hormone panels, metabolic panles, a1c test, all kinds of stuff). Had ears checked in case it was inner ear thing. Pfft - all fine.
Recently, I found out there's an eye disorder that could cause ALL of these issues. No joke! It's a binocular vision disorder. One type - vertical heterophoria - could cause all this nonsense. So weird! And it usually isn't caught in regular eye appointments (which I've had - they're supposedly fine).
So, march 1st - im getting screened to see if i have what my husband calls "googly eyes".
First time ever I'm hoping they say yes! You have this problem! Solve the puzzle, eh?
But right now it's bothering me. Because it's possible my eyes are fine, which leaves me in the same boat. Fingers crossed, I guess....
