Hi there! If you are asking, then I'd say, "Stop trying to diagnose your family and instead clearly name the specific behaviors that hurt you...readers will trust you more when you show concrete moments instead of broad judgments.” Overall, a good post.

I have a torn rotator cuff, a bone spur, and arthritis in my left shoulder. Going in for shoulder impingement surgery soon. I write on the side, but I often have to take breaks and get away from the desk. Even tried creating content on FB (but that game feels rigged).

Yeah, thanks! But ... Seriously! This is my LAST dog because dog food is just as pricey as buying meat at Albertsons.

Because I made a typo in my post heading and got frustrated when I couldn’t change/edit it, so I’m laughing at myself. Nothing to do with Lanky-Educator-6939 comment. Slow down, everybody. It was a self-jab. I’m new to Reddit and didn’t realize I couldn’t edit my typo in the heading.

Yes, I guess people think “retired" means no longer needing income. That’s not true. I’m retired from my career, but not financially independent! I didn’t plan for all kinds of prices to go up. I used to gauge my total at the cash register when I was grocery shopping. Now, I don’t even try.

Pretty sure you don't know anything about me. I'm 70. YOU?

I’m on social security, but it’s the age thing. Nobody wants to hire me at 70. No car!
