The job is killing my mum and idk how to help her. Sadly because she doesn’t have education she can’t get any high paying jobs so she has just been doing warehouse work the past 10 years. Although she works in production they make her do warehouse as well. she’s physically exhausted every day, has nightmares and tells me she’s sometimes afraid to fall asleep…
And I feel so helpless…
I mean if I as a experienced dev can’t even find a job anymore, what luck does she have of finding smth new.
Finally peeled the sheets of the bed. Haven't uhhhh put the other set yet. Plants watered. Husband is awake and fed him. Hoping the tomatoes get up to 4ish lbs to turn into sauce. The basil is growing. The cat is going eeeeeeeeeee. I should take a shower after putting the sheets in for that nice clean feeling.
I'm making chili con carne for like an hour, letting it really cook in all those nice spices.
