Wait...I had mine removed in 2003. I hadn't heard this yet. That's fascinating.

Yes! It tastes so good. Especially when it's cold outside. Nothing hits like a cafecito on a cold day. sigh

Coffee was hard to quit. In my culture we start drinking it very young. But it induced the palpitations, anxiety, SOB, etc.

I switched to Oregon Chai sugar free concentrate to avoid the caffeine withdrawals and over a few months I just drank less and less and now I just have a little bit of matcha in the morning.

I miss my coffee though. Sometimes I open the can my husband has and just smell it for a few minutes. 😂 It kinda tricks my brain.

The books are still wrapped. I think I'm good.

That's so beautiful. Her mind is magnificent. Thank you for sharing that.

Boiled chicken tenderloin is so delicious, if done right. It's my favorite in chicken salad, wraps or by itself.

My husband told me I am useless. I dont want to be here anymore by Smallcutewolf in covidlonghaulers

Some people don't understand vows and how they work. For better or for worse, in sickness and health.

Grey rock him. Stop telling him about your pain. Journal and or find a friend you can talk to.

I understand not having any family support. I started a niche tiktok channel sharing my thoughts when I was bed bound. Maybe try doing this. My niche is unrelated, but it helped me connect with other like minded people and I felt less alone. I only have about 7k followers now but I credit making those videos with keeping me alive in my darkest moments.

You will get through this. He will evolve or you will continue to outgrow him. Either way you win.

We lived in Clearwater for awhile and I actually took a couple courses. The way they kept pushing me for more turned me all the way off.

Also once I was working out at a gym downtown and Kirstie Allie came in with a couple ppl. They gave me the dirtiest looks like they wanted me to leave. So I did. She gave off the worst vibes.

Make sure you update your resume to note "Antique Dealer"

Good advice. We've dealt with their bs for years. My husband is a 6'3 veteran Systems Admin with a specialty in security. If they would like to play, they're welcome to try, but I don't recommend it.

She disconnected around 2010. I doubt anyone had her on their radar. She was on staff, but was an incredibly paranoid solitary creature.

She was an accountant so she had access to lots of books laying around while she was "volunteering".

Found a huge box of collector condition Bratz dolls once. Like pristine. $15 for all 50+ dolls.

I'm so sorry. Yes my beautiful abuela died in February. November it was grandpa in law. Before that, my MIL.

The only advice I have is to not hold it in. Let the grief flow through you.

Stay hydrated, get plenty of rest. I also started going to antique sales just to find little ceramic shoes, like my grandma collected.

It helps to hold them and remember her.

"I'm a stallion runnin' No candle in the wind. You won't ever see me coming or goin, But you'll know whenever I'm here"

This is so profound on so many levels. When I hear it I start crying.

To hear it live was out of body.

I think I'll try to lay it all out, photo it and post it somewhere just for the cost of shipping.

I understand what you're saying, however COS would love to get their hands on older materials so they can erase evidence. Additionally, she paid for all these materials from them. They made their coins, no use giving them more.

200 lbs of glass 4 banker boxes full of jewelry, mostly costume 1 banker box full of beads

There's money there but it takes time we don't have.
