Hey there, everyone. It’s almost 5:30pm on my end, and I’m just getting around to sitting at my computer for the day. Yesterday was a bad day. I’m pretty sure depression was creeping through, and I don’t use that term lightly....

angel_smiles I hope you're feeling a bit better. I have depression as well and know how bad it can be when it flares up.

I got a new job as a teacher at an alternative school in October, shortly after my mom had a stroke and moved into a nursing home. Somedays are wild but others are extremely boring! The students work at their own pace on a...

angel_smiles A few have been suspended for fights, etc. Most just fell behind due to virtual learning during COVID, life events, being a teen parent, or dealing with mental health issues. They study everything they would at the regular school - math, science, language...

I almost always wake up a bit before my alarm, but last night I must have stayed up too late because I woke up to it today. I still had plenty time to get ready for work but as I stood up I realized I was shaking uncontrollably!...

angel_smiles The shouting boss sucks. Mine is annoyed at me because I had to take 4 days off over 2 weeks. I'm half expecting them to attempt to write me up, but it won't work. Those days I took off were due to recovering from being physically attacked (I'm fine now),...

Okay so I swear I'm back this time for real. The last few months have been wild. My mom had two strokes which have sent her to live in a nursing home now. She's doing pretty decent though and also getting help for her mental...

The missus and I were out front yesterday and noticed this little fellow hanging out on the front porch with the cats who live there. He didn't seem at all disturbed by the proximity of two felines and they were paying him no mind...

Right when I started writing again, my 77 year old mom has a stroke. She’s okay. She spent 3 days in the hospital more for pneumonia than the stroke. Sadly, she has refused any physical therapy and gone right back to smoking!...

Has anyone have a dog escape but then make their way back home after a few days? Our 17 year old blind dog has been missing for 24 hours after pushing a board loose from the fence. She was only gone for 15-20 minutes before we...

angel_smiles It’s possible. All the animal controls here have a shared database of dogs they take in daily. So I will be looking each day to see if her profile pops up.

Hello there, everyone. I hope you're all doing well. This was originally one big post, but I decided to break it down. So please bear with me as I make about three posts back-to-back. I have work to do, so you won't hear from me...

angel_smiles Do you like doing virtual therapy? I don’t seem to get much out of it and greatly prefer in person. Luckily I’m able to do that now that COVID has died down some.

I have none! A ton of it is due to depression but also some due to side effects of the medication I take for the depression. Chicken or the egg situation for sure. I’m hoping when I see my doctor next week that we can begin the...
