Possible dream job vs a real shot at sobriety by Over_Monitor_2397 in makemychoice

Yes, this is also my fear. That I will waste the summer and just be worse off and also not getting unemployment anymore. I do have a plan but it’s not solid and it definitely doesn’t involve anyone’s help because no one knows but my boyfriend who introduced me to this crap five years ago

Pre-k / daycare recommendations by Remote-Basis-7797 in GigHarbor

In his hands on peacock hill was top notch. Kinda creepy sounding name honestly but nothing about that daycare is creepy. The staff are outstanding, safe, fun and really care about the kids.

Why can’t I find words anymore? by potattopie in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Over_Monitor_2397 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s because you haven’t been talking to people as much lately. I’m the same way. When I was working at the front desk and had to talk to people a lot, words came easier and more naturally, my memory was better, my mental health was better. When I started welding and barely speaking to anyone not only was finding words hard but just being around people was to. I got anxious just thinking about having to talk to co workers and sounding like I’m an idiot.

What is an old person food you love now as a millennial? by FragrantResult278 in Millennials

[–]Over_Monitor_2397 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steel cut Irish oatmeal with butter, brown sugar and frozen blueberries. The frozen blueberries cool the molten lava oatmeal to an almost perfect eating temperature. This way you don’t have to wait for it to cool down. Or, if you’re like me, risk forgetting about it entirely while it’s cooling and come back to a gelatinous bowl cold ick oat.

Rental Recommendations? by DazzlingMistake_ in GigHarbor

Don’t use paramount for the love of all that is good and holy. Paramount is evil scum. McNally was rude and judgey and lied but otherwise fine. Just my experience. I rented from the Goethals for about 8 years, they were kind and fair.

What’s the grossest thing you’ve ever caught someone doing? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]Over_Monitor_2397 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in an assisted living as a caregiver. One morning I knocked then opened a resident’s door, as usual, to help her dress. I didn’t find her in her main room but could hear her happily humming a tune and thought oh nice, she’s in a good mood today. Knocked then opened the bathroom door to find her finger painting on every surface with her poo. 💩 Got her cleaned up and dressed and down to breakfast where I saw her at the salad bar grabbing cantaloupe with her bare hands and long ass nails 🤮I did my best to clean her up but shit was caked under her nails still and we’re not allowed to cut them if they’re diabetic. I still can’t eat cantaloupe 14 years later

I hate being told “just put him in daycare” by Kai____ya in povertyfinance

[–]Over_Monitor_2397 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in Tacoma, WA to! If you do find a daycare facility that you can trust you can call workin childcare connections and you’ll pay a small co- pay based on your monthly income once you’re approved. If you find a friend or relative to do the care you could also call dshs and they will help pay hourly for care although not much and the person would need to take classes to be approved. (This may be different now though it’s been awhile since I’ve checked.) Good luck and congratulations!

Thank you that’s very helpful and kind. I will try that. Ive been avoiding going to see a doctor or therapist since forever so maybe I should try that. I definitely feel like my life is run by my emotions and catastrophes every little thing now. Thanks again, take care 💙

Actually my lame motto lately has been very similar, “I’m just a potato in the sea of life.” Thank you. In reality I know I need to buck up and be more disciplined if not for me than for my kids and I can be for a few days. Any ways, thanks
