What's everyone been up to? Any plans for the weekend?

Week is going OK, busy like everyone else, but some lights at the end of some tunnels. Going to build a Docker instance on the home server this weekend to play with self hosted Beeper. Very hot where I am but also hoping to get some outside time anyway.

Like a colonoscopy: Uncomfortable, embarassing, and with a shitty ending.

Went pretty well.

It was good in the sense that I finally finished my first diamond painting (it was huge) and I'm happy with the end result, just needs to be framed.

Been a little discouraged regarding looking for another job. I'm a therapist and all the positions in jobs sites don't pay well, are looking for fully licensed people, which I am not, or don't offer schedule flexibility. I do have some connections in the field that I'm leaning on to see what comes up and I do have a decent position waiting for me in the coming months but wanted to see what else is out there.

On the negative side, I'm not sleeping well. It comes and goes based on stress and sugar consumption and it's hard to stay on top of sometimes cuz damn it sugar is good ๐Ÿ˜” I'm also coping well enough with the fact that I dislike my boss and the way she runs her business, which is most of the reason why I'm leaving. I love my clients but it's a trainwreck that's been in motion for over a year.

Week is going well! Planning to get some beers with friends after i finish my 12hr shift today. Starting school in two weeks and kind of dreading that but I know once i start doing it again it will become part of the flow.

Sorry to hear so many people are having a rough time. Remember that you're not the only one going through it and fluctuation is a part of life. Sending everyone love and good vibes!

Work has been crap but as long as I compartmentalise that bit the rest has been lovely.

Have had a really enjoyable (and knackering!) weekend with friends and family.

It's mostly good! The only really sad thing for me is that my girlfriend and I are probably not going to marry next year already, because apparently (meaning, according to the internet) the location should be planned and booked 1 to 1 1/2 years in advance. And since we originally hoped for an autumn wedding, we would have to do nothing but check with locations the coming weekends. But those weekends are already scheduled for family and friends and finishing our camper van.

My grandpa hit his head and lost most of his motor function

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope he recovers.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not great, that's all I'll say.
