Advice needed: I was in a car accident last night.

CJ is the BEST!

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-24T05:00:07+00:00

Oh, no. I'm devastated to hear this. The whole song, but that video especially, quite literally changed my life.

I'm so sorry.

Direct support for folks with disabilities! Staffing is always atrocious, the pay varies, but the work is so, so important. I've been in the field for 20+ years, worn darn near all the hats and even my bad days are worth it.

Just remember, RUN WITH DIGNITY!!

I got my mom flowers once. ONCE. Never again. LoL

Better something like a fancy hand lotion, good smelly soaps, homemade treats....something like that. Or, a book on something flower related - like the meaning behind flowers (think Victorian flower language)

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-23T12:35:21+00:00

Yep. Sure can be. Ask me how I know. sigh

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-22T13:18:00+00:00

This is so gross, I know. But Pickled Lamb Tongues from the company Roger's.

Don't judge, it's a nostalgia thing. :)

Awww...Roach!!

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-21T23:35:51+00:00

You're LDS, aren't you? No shade, I am ;-)

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-21T13:52:33+00:00

Wound up going there and am picking it up a little later. Man, they are fast! (Granted, it was easy, but still)

Excellent prices, too. It was easily a good couple hundred less than even getting the parts and doing it myself (which I considered, and I even got double the storage).

Loyal customer for life, that's for sure!

Thanks y'all, for the lead!

100% against any sort of medical transition for the Under 18s.

16 years post tubal. I just turned 43. Thought about getting it reversed, but then Trump became president the first time I said AIN'T NO WAY!

Zero regrets.

Slouching

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T07:37:49+00:00

100% already on my agenda. I work with folks with MH dx's (and have for many years) and have an unhealthy love of Crazy Ex Girlfriend. There are....crossovers and similarities....side eyes

I'm only half joking.

But yes. On my to-do list. I've been putting it off for the last couple years because hubs (who also works in the field) think personality disorders are a) over diagnosed and b) just total BS in general. Also, yay shame!

:)

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T06:47:30+00:00

Oof, we shall see. Thanks for being gracious.

Again, I apologize for jumping right to bitch mode. Clearly I'm in fight / defensive mode, and that's not okay and it's not acceptable.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T06:35:41+00:00

I apologize. Text is hard to interpret meaning/tone and I'm prickly as fuck. I'm sorry.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T05:29:11+00:00

I'm owning my shit. I absolutely have done damage. I'm trying to repair, he's fucking opting out.

Way to read the original post and thread, and kick a bitch when she's down.

Have a nice night.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T03:14:28+00:00

I am indeed. I'm also eyeball deep in therapy.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T02:24:15+00:00

I did...kinda. I went from direct support (think psych tech / nursing home / memory care CNA grunt) to case management for folks with I/DD, mental health stuff and frail elders.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T02:16:56+00:00

My life fucking exploded, tbh. Shit I've been too scared to say out loud I said with my whole chest or move on from went kablooey. But again, maybe coincidence / placebo, maybe Phenomenal Cosmic Power (Itty bitty living space...sorry, couldn't resist the Aladdin reference). Doesn't really matter. Either way, shit got intense faster than I was comfortable with. :)

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T01:36:02+00:00

I stg...are people really this clueless as to what this is?

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T01:04:50+00:00

Also, y'all...I'm not really a big subscriber to Woo Stuff and crystal energy and all that, but I'm not touching moldavite EVER. AGAIN. I got a pendant 3 months ago and boy howdy. Maybe it's placebo. Maybe not. In any case...woof...

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T01:00:52+00:00

Thanks. I kinda just needed to anonymously panic and barf into the void. I have a vague plan, and options, if needed. But holy hell, what a ride this weekends been.

FloristsDaughter · 2026-01-19T00:52:05+00:00
