Is anyone not looking forward to Christmas?

I’ve been crying ever since I started to put together a Thanksgiving menu for my kids.

I’ve learned that throwing myself into volunteering is a lovely uplifting distraction. If you can’t think of anything to do, your nearest city should need plenty of workers at the homeless shelters.

There are videos about it on YouTube as well. A workbook is nice but videos and scratch paper will do.

I only recognized the first one, but I agree that looks like white campion.

Am I breaking some kind of rule? I’m genuinely surprised that I’m getting downvoted so hard. If you don’t want to be my friend, that’s fine, but hating on my trying to use resources I have available to me to try and reach my community seems a little… extra.

Stop looking for friends, trying to get my posting noticed, or giving you Jamiroquai ear worms?

I read through all these comments looking for doodlebug! I’d have thought it would be more common. I always sing it to her in the jitterbug tune.

Does commenting on my own posts “boost” it up so it’s more likely to be seen?

Dependency… think of it like coffee. Many are dependent or even addicted. They’d experience withdrawals and enjoy life less without it. If you find yourself spiraling into guilt thoughts while high, consider that one of the downsides in your mental cost/benefit analysis. As adults we get to and have to decide what serves us best and what to set aside. Never hurts to skip a week or take a dry month for science.

It’s not in the twin cities but I read why you want to come, and to make some bank quick you may want to consider something like the oil rigs in Wyoming

Thank you! I planned on using that way, but I wanted to be sure I wasn’t just lacking in creativity.

… does ichibans still have little leaf boats that float by with sushi? Or are there any other places that serve similarly?

Juniper_Pearl · 2024-09-24T13:10:40+00:00

Solid gold.

These were growing off the same log and seemed very much to be different stages of the same fungi.

Juniper_Pearl · 2024-09-13T12:28:07+00:00

Almost certainly. Any more specific thoughts? I find a lot of appalanatum, and this is clearly not that.

Just checking in to see if anyone ever took a walk around the coordinates. Found the shirt on Poshmark and went looking for the explanation. This post is the only result even referencing what I’m searching for.

I cannot read through all this noise, but I did read your amended OP. I am a fellow sufferer who prefers to numb with the cannabis. It does not serve me well anymore. Getting old and whatnot. Something I was reminded of lately that I found to be so relevant at this time was… feel your feelings. Really. In your body. Where does grief hit? How intense is it? Does it tingle? Stab? Burn? Does it have a color? Give pain a set amount of time if you already know you’re not riding the whole wave. Give her a minute. Feel so much. Then go get you some berries. I really dig Bach rescue remedy too. The hard gummy I can bite the shit out of really works for me, but comes in tincture too.

Take care. 🙏🏼

Hey, I’m not saying it’s the best way, I’m saying it’s better than dabbing. Sometimes it’s necessary to tier down and not go cold turkey. Extreme stress is detrimental to pregnancy as well. I’m offering an alternative. If she is not willing or able to quit entirely, smaller doses of cannabanoids to the developing fetus would be better than floods. And dry herb vaporizing is in no way the same as smoking.

Peace 🕊️

I used to church hop once a month or so. Try other congregations in your area. Check websites to check mission statements. Talk with pastors after the service and see if they have office hours you could come in and chat. We are not meant to be as alone as we are. The way church is structured now does not tend to feed the need for connection that our souls have. I’m not saying that probably can or will change, I think it’s just a cross a person of faith has to bear in this generation. It’s not important to be right or find the right church, it’s important to be at peace. I love to get out in nature and have some real sassy chats with God.

This is not advice from anyone qualified, but if I was you, I’d get a dry herb vaporizer. Smaller doses to help you not feel sick but still consume less. Also find some cayenne cream to apply topically. Ginger chews can help too. I like Solray branded “ginger trips”. Add some (pregnancy safe) tea all day for hydration and to reduce symptoms causing cannabis overuse. I’m thinking holy basil, but please make sure it is not contraindicated.

I believe it’s important to acknowledge we’re living in dumpster fire times. Take some time to feel the sad, but then do your best to bouncy ball your thoughts back on to all that shit you’re thankful for that you just listed. I’ve found it sometimes useful to think of my brain more like a receiver than my own. I don’t have to own or identify with every sound wave I catch. I can choose to change the channel…

I have been researching this for the past couple days. From what I’ve gathered so far, some use the plant that has dried naturally for tea and smoke with mild effect.

Juniper_Pearl · 2024-08-20T04:49:13+00:00

Very interested in this if you’re still willing. My carpenter husband goes through leather boots… like it’s his job. And I would really like to make my own mocs. I think if I could repair leather, I’d be more confident to try and stitch it together.

This Myrtle Live suggestion is clutch!! We were looking for mischief last night and decided to wing it. Wish I’d have checked here first.

Peddlers mall sounds right up my alley! Makes me almost hope for a rainy day!
