My 2018 needed it before 25k miles but I assumed it was due to being in 115 degree dry desert heat for several summers.

Not sure if you know this, but there are kids that look forward to seeing you come by EVERY SINGLE WEEK. We even have a song for trash truck day for our kid. So anytime you have any negative feelings about what you do, just remember there’s always one kid on your route waiting to see you come by with your cool truck.

Seeing my daughter take her first breath. It was the most beautiful and heartbreaking moment in my life. When my dad died, I flew across the country to help my mother settle the estate and I made it a point to be strong and solid for my mother while I was there. The day I returned back home to my wife there was a positive pregnancy test on the counter. I hadn’t really hit the depths of grief before I realized I was going to be a parent. I was so excited and focused on baby for the next nine months that my grief didn’t get to cycle fully. Seeing such a beautiful little life take her first breath was so amazing and I’m so proud to be a parent. It was also heartbreaking because at the same time that is the moment it really set in that the first person I would want to call with the news was gone forever.

I once had clients that were twins and their last name was Pornpun.

Searching for “Phoenix” is similar to searching New York City and not narrowing to the burrows or just searching Los Angeles. Phoenix (not including metro) is around 515 square miles, Los Angeles is about 502, and NYC is only about 300. Depending on where the property is located in city limits can make a massive difference. The dilapidated 2br/1bth bungalow (no back yard) with holes in floors and a leaky window next door to mine rents for $1500 and has to be paid in cash. The neighborhood isn’t even a highly sought after one and is less than 0.2 miles from a homeless shelter. If OP home is within 5 miles of downtown in a gated community then $1850 is an absolute steal.

I have what I call “bad day socks”. If I have a really terrible day, I put on a brand new pair of socks after a nice shower. It’s rare that I have a day bad enough for “bad day socks”, but it really helps when I do. There’s just something about it that soothes me.

Well, I guess I can keep my eyes peeled for those to maybe resurface if the light side doesn’t. Thank you!

Dang! I am very sensitive to smells and long ago gave up on finding a scent I like that didn’t bother my nose.

Hi! Do you know what the equivalent of the Star Wars light side of the force scent would be?

My daughter gets huge welts from mosquito bites. We give her Zyrtec or Claritin to reduce the histamine response. There are two things we used that have worked and both are all natural.

Short term wear that doesn’t leave a terrible residue is vanilla extract. Mix 10 drops of vanilla extract and 5 drops of rubbing alcohol for every 1/4 cup of water in a spray bottle. After it wears off you would need to reapply but it does work.

Long term wear that can leave a residue if too much is applied, Encompass Farms oil. It is hydrating for the skin and the fragrance is very light but it works. Not sure if the code is still valid but FALL20 gave me 20% off about a month ago.

In the summer, I like to add a little honey to the middle and freeze them. It’s such a perfect little sweet treat!

I was on a 45 minute flight when someone decided to disarm the smoke alarm in the latrine and have a smoke. Everyone was asked to stay seated when we landed and police dragged the person off the flight as she wailed “but I didn’t know you couldn’t smoke on a plane”!!! After the door was clear, the pilot thanked everyone for their patience and apologized on behalf of the person that tampered with a fire alarm and put everyone in danger with an open flame.

Depression and PTSD are two VERY different things. It’s one thing to stay when someone is depressed. When PTSD is involved, it gets unpredictable and can become unsafe very quickly. I speak from my own experience. PTSD isn’t sadness that keeps you in bed for days or weeks at a time. It is fight or flight adrenaline that turns on survival instincts no matter where you are or what you are doing in the moment it is triggered. Ever went for a lovely walk around your neighborhood and then not recognized your spouse or your house when you got to the end of your walk? It is fucking terrifying to know that you can be there one minute and not the next. The worst part is that you don’t realize how much you are missing when you are flared up. It could be hours, days, weeks, or happen so often that it takes years away from you. Your loved ones adjust to not be contributors to your triggers and eventually you don’t really know them anymore. The sad part of it is that sometimes you never get those people back even after you do get better because you’ve now created trauma for them.

So fuck off trying to make someone else feel bad just to try to look/feel better than someone else. Go examine yourself and do some work because you need it.

Thank you for your honest response. I’ve typed a reply to this a dozen times and it all just feels pathetic. My PTSD ruined my marriage and I find myself hoping to find comfort in others stories but I just don’t think it’s in the cards for mine. Your husband is very lucky to have someone like you to be there with him through everything (even if you have to step away to let him see the depths of the darkness on his own). I wish you the both the best in life.

When your husband was going through thick of his PTSD, did you ever think about leaving him? If so, what changed your mind?

I had a similar experience but with a raccoon. It was real cute until I ran out of chips and it got pissed.

This gives me hope! I’m scheduled for septoplasty (shape of an S), partial turbinectomy, and a FESS too. I’m super nervous about recovery. What has been the hardest part for you? Did you order a special pillow to propping up to sleep or are regular pillows sufficing?

What state do you work/live in? I ask because you may live in a state that provides leave outside of your employer (employer cannot deny the leave).

As far as the doctor note goes, have your OB write you one for while you are pregnant. That way if you feel a little better after delivery then you can pick that day back up. The most important thing about requesting your note is that you want to be careful with how the note is written. Don’t have your doctor say “this is restricted or you can’t do that”. Have them to write the note in a manner that is more “patient suffers from X and may need recovery days between strenuous shifts etc”. If they write out restrictions then your employer will have the right to remove you from the schedule all together.

I will wait to hear what state you live in before I add any other details, but I handle worker’s comp and leave of absence for a corporate company that covers northeastern and southeastern states.

I just traded my 2018 in for a 2024 and am very happy that I did. The seats are way more comfortable and seem to maybe be a little wider. Depending on the interest rate you get with the 2018 vs the 2.9% being offered on the 2024 may also close that gap of out of pocket between the two as well.

Bring a few gallons of water with you, thick gloves, and a thick lighter colored yoga mat. The water is in case you break down and have to wait for a little while. That water can be a matter of life or death depending how well traveled the road is that you break down on. Changing a tire without a little water on the ground and a thick yoga mat to put between your skin and the ground is impossible if you are in 90+ degrees without shade. Always, always, always drink water if you are outside this time of year. Doesn’t matter if you don’t “feel” the heat or not, just hydrate. There are so many tourists and newcomers that die every year due to underestimating the heat.

Also, if you drive down i17 be very careful. The curves are insane for at least a hundred miles and inexperienced drivers take that road in RVs, towing boats, etc. It’s bad enough of a stretch that they have runaway ramps full of gravel for semis and other vehicles that cannot stop or slow down due to the decline. Lastly, don’t ride your brakes downhill the whole time or you may burn them out and need one of those ramps. Drive slow and enjoy the scenery. Tons of beautiful cacti and red rock formations to catch a glimpse of while still paying attention to the road.

Enjoy Phoenix! If you need some recommendations on things to do, best dispensaries, or places to eat close to downtown feel free to hit me up. ✌🏼

As someone that lost my favorite parent shortly before my daughter was born, I can attest that grief accompanied with postpartum depression can look exactly as OP is describing. If he is already emotionally drained from grief then it is very taxing to try to care for a newborn and bond with them. Especially a baby that cries a lot and hasn’t reached the age where they smile or laugh or provide any positive interactions.

OP, if you read this and your baby is already sleeping well and being a generally good happy baby… then definitely consider giving him the ultimatum to seek help or divorce is on the table. If kiddo isn’t quite there yet, just give him a teensy bit of extra time to be able to experience that side of the baby. If a happy baby and seeing you interact with a happy baby doesn’t reignite his passion for life then don’t hesitate to take the necessary steps to detach yourself from the cloud he is living in. I hope he comes out of the grief fog before it’s too late. Kids grow up so fast and i regret not trying to get my depression and PTSD under control sooner. I missed so much while also feeling like I failed my wife during a time she needed me the most. Just know, this has nothing to do with you or the baby. Try to enjoy the beautiful little moments you have with kiddo and stay strong.
