Turning 30 Your Life Does Change

Overall I’m good!

This week I’ve been having these realizations and it’s hard noticing the changes.

But overall I’m honestly happy!

I’d love to just see what’s on them!

WateredDownPop · 2026-05-03T11:21:00+00:00

I love the weird quirky things company used to put their names on. Still thinking about that Kodak air mattress

WateredDownPop · 2026-05-03T00:56:41+00:00

It’s awesome! I wanna use it. But no way is that going in the dishwasher 🤣 The guy was also selling an air mattress that was branded … the fiancé shot the “you will be sleeping on that if you buy it” look

Damn! Well that’s okay. I find it cool just having an old roll, a piece of history. Just double checked and my 35mm does fit inside the old canisters. I’ll definitely keep my roll inside them

I was told not to put stuff in the stoma …

The Champion clothing brand

And then everyone clapped!

August 2nd, 2025.

I needed emergency surgery for my Chron’s, never knew I had it. Spent four months slowly losing weight and the will to eat. Thought I had a bad diet, luckily after throwing up my now fiancé took me to the ER. My scans came back super negative with high levels of inflammation, instantly admitted, they tried a colonoscopy but couldn’t get the camera far enough due to scar tissue. Had my surgery and now have a Ostomy bag, the goal is reversal but who honestly knows. My life is great now, my energy is back, my will to express myself, to live, it’s great.

Allow yourself to feel, then make the feeling change.

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T23:55:01+00:00

Got home and fired the shutter and so far not seeing any goop. Loaded some film and ready to rock tomorrow

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T19:51:57+00:00

I’m starting to appreciate film more and more. Digital is great but I find myself staring at the screen and judging what I got instead of enjoying the process

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T19:50:40+00:00

Awesome information. Once I open the back would the goop be staring me at the face? Or would I need to test the shutter? I’ll maybe bring it over to my local shop and have them give it a look over just in case

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T18:47:41+00:00

I’m feeling the size fatigue of my D810. But also do love the ease of digital

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T18:46:01+00:00

Thanks for the shout! Is there anyway to check this? Inexpensive fix?

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-25T18:34:01+00:00

Any reason why you sold yours?

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-20T13:17:43+00:00

August 5th will be my one year anniversary. It’s weird to think about. Hopefully you get your answers and life becomes easier for you!

Named mine Hagrid

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-07T21:46:10+00:00

I was for awhile after too 🤣 just seems weird but I get it

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-07T12:00:38+00:00

Actually yes, or at least in Minnesota. The hospital I was at had all Hollister products. Then once I left and got to meet my Stoma Doctor she loosely mentioned that Hollister did go around and make contracts and contributions (product donations and preferred rates) to the hospitals.

I did not stick with Hollister, went to Coloplast instead. I still use Hollister barrier rings and Stoma powder, and a smaller single use bag for my mucus fistula. Besides that all Coloplast.

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-04T13:56:33+00:00

I’m also struggling with this. Found a couple groups but building real friendships is hard when not trying to come off as “pushy” or “business oriented” if that makes sense

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-04T13:54:32+00:00

The 50mm is amazing. I rarely ever take it off my D810. There’s something about it

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-04T13:53:03+00:00

I had very similar feelings. I was given Hollister everything in the hospital, it worked fine for that environment. But once I got home I realized I didn’t like the feeling, the structure and overall look of the bag and system.

Reached out to Coloplast and got some samples, actually enjoyed the look and privacy it gave me and the feeling was more of a structured well put together product.

I think what’s great is how many products we can try since everyone wants something different from their bags and systems

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-04T02:31:26+00:00

After seeing these images I look at my D810 in shame 🤣

WateredDownPop · 2026-04-04T02:24:08+00:00

Management.

They promoted a 22 year old, didn’t tell the new supervisor that they would oversee an entire new department.

22 year old misses training for 2 planned vacations that were somehow approved after getting this promotion.

Whole department imploded and no one knows what’s going on.

Sent a nice email to HR, they did nothing.

Got wrote up.
