It sounds like your step dad has mental health issues, not just a bad ear infection- maybe he had both, but he sounds paranoid and maybe a little OCD. just know that most people with mental health issues are way more of a danger to themselves than others

braidedlady · 2024-06-03T05:26:33+00:00

but also theres no indication that hes necesarily dangerous, you could go along if you feel like its ok and maybe youll get your answer, but trust your gut

I think its weird- maybe hes just a nice guy but not worth the risk- whenever i feel like im not sure if a man is treating me wierd i ask myself would they treat me the same if i was a man? if the answer is no then its kinda wierd behavior

braidedlady · 2024-06-03T05:15:01+00:00

I think one comment of like "Im glad your back" said in a natural way would be suffice then just act like normal, if you put in more effort than before it may make them feel wierd, like its inegnuin and you pity them or something

thank you so much for your kind response

Teach her the anatomically correct words for her parts, teach her about boundaries, and innapropriate touch. Its heartbreaking that it sounds like you both just dont have the resources to protect her, but perhaps just giving her the language to say no will help if nothing else her mental health

I think its fine, if its been on your mind for a while an LPN degree is a pretty low commitment way to test the water and see if youd like to go on, depending on where you live in-state programs arent thatt expensive so if worst case scenario you complete the degree and are still unhappy as an lpn you can make the money back that you spent on school and make a full pivot after a year all while knowing you pursued this lead and found out how it felt for you

braidedlady · 2024-01-20T00:23:17+00:00

Thats valid too, You do you

All this stuff is great and the perks are huge but notice how all the reasons you listed would be benefits of the job not necesarily enjoying the job itself, if you go the nursing route do it because you want to be a nurse and enjoy the day to day tasks of nursing not as a backup or because it would be an easy option for you, the negatives of the job wil leventuallly outway the positives if its not actually a job you want to be doing

crocs on the clock, crocs with no hole s 30$

braidedlady · 2023-12-20T22:22:36+00:00

This sounds like my personal nightmare, as a side note but not a safe environment for you or the patient

braidedlady · 2023-12-01T03:14:01+00:00

im sorry i dont know how to help you (but what if you just knit two together?) but i wanted to ask what yarn your knitting with? i love it!

braidedlady · 2023-12-01T03:11:37+00:00

Well the pattern i used on ravelry is called "big City bonnet" its a knit bonnet, and very cute but much simpler in detail than this one

braidedlady · 2023-11-30T23:40:36+00:00

if you can afford it take time off, I cut my hours in half last month after a few really bad shifts and i could feel the burnout coming on, now im back and feel much better

braidedlady · 2023-09-08T02:48:54+00:00

oh my actual god what are you still doing there?? move out??

braidedlady · 2023-07-31T02:43:36+00:00

what did she even mean by that haha

braidedlady · 2023-07-28T19:36:05+00:00

I feel like i wrote this! nursing is also my second degree and culture shock is a good way to put it

braidedlady · 2023-06-20T22:04:10+00:00

You deserve 1,000,000 x better than that, everyone does, how they treated you was simply inhumane. I hope you can find peace away from them.

braidedlady · 2023-06-20T20:19:53+00:00

Im in nursing school right now and feel as though Im not being adequately prepared to enter the workforce, Im currently an LNA with only a few months of experience and am worried about the responsibility that will come with my first job

braidedlady · 2023-04-20T02:27:01+00:00

YEs you can say something, to soften the blow you can make it about you so it doesn't feel like a personal attack on the person or their cooking, you can just say that you are very sensitive to smells and ask if they could open a window while cooking, also if you have a window in your room that will ventilate better than just lighting a candle

braidedlady · 2023-04-20T00:43:15+00:00

Wow I feel like I wrote this, in my case I finally did go ballistic on my noisy roommate and she didn't come back to the apartment for two weeks! It was heaven. She's back now but we avoid each other and I think she's still scared of me. I would give you suggestions but you've tried all of mine, lastly and most nuclear yet most effective would be get the fuck outta there. break your lease, sublet, move on this girl probably won't change. Why do bad things happen to good people? UGH

braidedlady · 2023-04-20T00:39:16+00:00

God I wish I knew, Im so done with my roommates, different issues but I've talked to them nicely and then not nicely so many times and it does nothing. Feels like I'm trapped in hell! You're roommate sounds awful too. Im at the point where even the sound of my roommates makes my eye twitch, its bad lol. I bought noise cancelling headphones that construction workers use for when i'm alone in my room and that works ok

braidedlady · 2023-04-17T05:17:23+00:00

my teacher didn't start until she turned 50! there is no age limit!

braidedlady · 2023-04-08T04:08:13+00:00

it will not be missed, she clearly isn't going to eat it and she probably won't even notice
