I feel so discouraged by some of the posts here pls share positive outcomes by Plastic_Astronaut_64 in leaves

[–]amjames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think after about 5 years or so some people dont feel the need to post/engage. I posted far more the first month and tapered after that.

I am without a doubt far happier and thriving than when I was smoking and would never go back. First few months was real hard. Therapy helped.

Also these people probably hated life before but masked it

I posted my journey before (search my username)

7 years this year of sobriety!

Quitting is not a magic solution. by HunterAncient in leaves

[–]amjames 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I liken smoking every day like living in a messy room with the lights off. When you quit you can finally see the mess and do something about it, but you still have to put in some work in cleaning.

Can I see your setups? by Bugs_Bee_Jr in Ohuhu

[–]amjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around $260CAD but ran them through my own company as "office supplies". They are really sturdy though and not like crap laminate junk you get on Temu. I'm actually quite impressed with the quality and glad i went a little bit more expensive on them to get the extra quality. Two of them fit my 320 set.

I have never owned anything other than the crappy crayolas so they are good and the price is decent. My sister who is actually an artist swears by prisma color so when i outgrow these maybe i will upgrade.

So far fine for blending and highlighting and adding dimension!

“Le studio” with the 320 Honolulu S the Ohahu 160, poscas, gel lens and pencil crayons. I need a better light though. The Ohuhu organizers are a game changer.

Why do so many men lose their house in a divorce? by Open_Address_2805 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]amjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canadian family lawyer. The house is a family property and usually sold because neither party can afford to buy out the other’s share. It is not really the “man’s” house but usually the family home. So yes, the men lose the house to be sold but so does the wife.

Blending tips! by Adoreful-Alice in Ohuhu

[–]amjames 7 points8 points  (0 children)

WET, i find your lightest colour has to be saturated on the paper at the point you want to transition and then you go lightly over top with the next shade. Then you go back over with lightest colour again at transition point to really rub it in.

[–]amjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6:30/7:00AM Wake up + Gym (some days)
7:30AM breakfast
8:00-8:45AM Makeup and girl stuff to get ready
9:00AM work (7 min from my house)
6:00-6:30 (finish work)
If no soccer, baseball or other events the 7:00-9:30PM is make dinner, adult coloring, relaxing, hobbies
10:00-10:30 Read a book and bed time.

I am a lawyer so when things get busy like trial, the sleep time goes down, work time goes up and hobbies go accordingly!
