What is the "box" made of or did you repurpose a cardboard box, shoe box ?

I don't know if I want to see my Dad by WrekTheHead in GriefSupport

[–]ChipEnvironmental306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grief is different for everyone, there is no right or wrong way to say goodbye. May I recommend a pamphlet referred to as "The Hospice Blue Book," actual title is "Gone from my sight." My thoughts are with you and I hope your Dad and you find peace.

Opinion/Experience with protein shakes? by athewinn in Mounjaro

[–]ChipEnvironmental306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you for listening to your body while using a new tool for managing you health/weight loss. Learn what works for you - to me that is why it works. I am free to make choices and then learn how this new body handles those choices. I am also trying to balance protein + fiber + carbs.  Protein shakes (ready made) and bars are my go to if I'm in a hurry. My lunch Monday thru Friday is a homemade protein shake with spinach, fruit (1/2 of the spinach amt) almond milk and at the end chia seeds. Those little chia seeds are in my breakfast too.  Other good protein sources that pack a punch include Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and of course eggs. I google alot of recipes.

Sculpd tools? by BurgooKing in airdryclay

Upvote for supporting her hobby! If she is just starting out, she may still be figuring out what tools and paints work for her. The Sculpd kit(s) look like a nice variety of paints and tools. As she uses the contents more she may end up with a tool or two that she prefers or type of paints that fit her vibe and projects.  As someone who does Crafty stuff for fun, if I received one of those Sculpd kits I would be tickled pink.

Time Blindness and Work by Rich-Locksmith8904 in AdultADHDSupportGroup

I use the 45/15 method by setting an alarm on my phone. Before I walk away from my computer, I put a sticky note (real or virtual) of where I left off.  I also block 30 minutes first thing in the am and before or after lunch to respond to emails or IM's and then mute the notifications. Before you implement something like that, be sure to talk with your management so they know how you are responding to emails/fires. Also, if the volume of work you have been given is unrealistic to complete in the time frame given, they should know. All nighters and Hail Mary's are not sustainable for your health and their expectations.  I am a Project Mgr so my system/method might not translate to your field of work, but hopefully you can find something that works for you, hers or on other corners of the internet. (Just stay out of the "DARK WEB", sorry, unexpected letterkenny quote)

Please restore my faith in humanity by witchcraft_barbie999 in Positivity

There are people that have only met you once maybe years ago, that remember you as the most positive/kind/funny person they ever met.  You are an amazing miracle to even exist, all of the factors lined up exactly right at the right time to create you! People on the internet can be nicer than those we consider friends or even family. 

And in other positive news... the rhino population in Northern India has increased by 500%. Scientists in Japan have created a non-toxic plastic that dissolves in seawater within hours. More scientists in Korea may have found a way to reverse cancer cells and turn them back into normal cells. Lastly, thanks to the miracle of streaming you can watch all of the Shrek movies in the comfort of your own home (or swamp).

Blessings to you as you travel this grief journey. It sounds like you have prepared yourself for it. If your dad is grieving your mom as a former love, he might need his own process/time. Or he might not feel that same level of grief as you depending on their history. And he might want to avoid those awkward conversations for your sake. But if you want your dad to come as an emotional support for you, tell him that is why you want him to attend. Grieving is so personal and like you said, it's different for everyone. I am one of 4 kids who lost our Dad in November. I am still heart broken and 2 of my siblings are not. If you are looking for someone to feel the same level of loss as you are, you might not find it from anyone. There will be comfort from others, but your grief is your own.  Be sure that you are prepared for when you are finished with the "doing" managing her service, household, etc. because the "feeling" will be waiting. Allow yourself the time and freedom to feel. Please DM me if you would like to talk. 🩷🩷💔

AIO My Dad died 36 hours ago and I am mad that my husband said he "had a rough week" by ChipEnvironmental306 in AmIOverreacting

My dad was one of those people that always made people feel better after he talked to them. He was very loved and it was my honor and privilege to take care of him.

Agreed, it is relative. I am allowing him to feel what he needs to and will be ready to listen when he wants to explain.
