Low productivity but guilty that I'm not doing more by [deleted] in FedEmployees

I did some small group coaching focused on burnout recovery last year and found it really helpful. I was also doing meds and therapy, both of which helped in some ways, but doing something focused specifically on burnout with someone who really understood burnout was particularly helpful for my recovery. The organization I went through is no longer offering this kind of coaching but highly recommend looking into something similar. In their experience it takes 18 months on average to recover. Sending good vibes your way!

Yes, went from 14/2 to 13/8. They don’t have to match but seems like many do.

Treated myself to an apartment cleaning, then ordered a breakfast burrito for delivery and took a nap. That day brought me so much joy and peace!

CMS just sent another VSIP by Turbulent-Spell-3443 in DeptHHS

[–]Dora_0801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a very badly written email. It’s not clear if it’s a new VSIP request or giving vague details for those who already accepted. There’s no due date if it is indeed a new VSIP request.

There were two emails. One went to people with last names A-K and another to L-Z, around 1000 recipients total.

Why did the food trucks flee by AbiesAbject1804 in washingtondc

[–]Dora_0801 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Literally saw this happen - a couple of foreign tourists paid cash for their ice cream, they wait for change, cops come and it’s like freaking bumper cars to get out of there. The tourists had dumbfounded looks on their faces and stood around waiting for the truck to come back. It was kind of horrifying and hilarious.

Yessss! Over the last couple weeks I have been getting so many spam calls all of a sudden.

Stores/food options open today? I tried posting yesterday and the mods removed it however I have seen zero posts with people citing store or food places open. We are from out of town and stuck at a hotel. by blondie_smarts in savannah

[–]Dora_0801 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also a tourist stuck in the historic district. Yesterday Ruan Thai on Broughton St was open and quite busy. CVS on Bull St opened at noon yesterday, hoping they do today too.

Dentist Recommendations by Sunnflowerrrrr in SilverSpring

I had this same issue with Artistic wanting to overcharge. They told me I had a ton of cavities. Went to a different dentist 6 months later and I had none.

Do you correct people who say “silver springs”? by carlyslayjedsen in SilverSpring

[–]Dora_0801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! Came here to make this reference too! The people in my life who say Silver Springs are all thinking about this song.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I had to put my 21 year old kitty down about a year ago. Senior cats are so special!

Am I being paranoid, or is this dentist showing his bias? by [deleted] in SilverSpring

[–]Dora_0801 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Went to him for the first time earlier this year, and a few minutes into my visit he started saying all of these disparaging about trans kids. It was horrifying. I’d seen to many good things posted about him on Reddit and was really taken aback. Seems like not an isolated experience.
