What's Bothering You?

I live with my dad. He's a wonderful dad, but we can't agree on the temperature. I like it at 73F. He likes it at 75F. And if I turn the system off, it climbs to 78F because it's hot outside. If I turn the air on, he turns the heat on because he gets cold easily.


I just am tired of sweating.
 
my lower back hurts so much when I cough, like whyyyyyyy 😭
My shoulders hurt like hell when I sneeze.

Literally my mom. I feel your pain.
 
Conversation with my boyfriend last night ended with him yelling at me last night and hanging up. Maybe we're done:(
My best friend hasn't paid rent to me for months, like more than a year, and I let her (and her cats and her boyfriend) into my apartment a year and a half ago so she wouldn't be homeless, but now I am going to have to move for my own sanity.
Really stressful week at work where I had picked up a bunch of extra shifts and we had a brief blackout, as well as a piece of equipment that isn't working and I had to make a lot of calls to try and find a last minute replacement which was a lot of added stress on top of an already extra long workday where I had picked up overtime
Every day I'm worried I'll never be able to have kids of my own. Everyday I walk into work, I have to pass the L&D floor, so I run into mothers in labor in the hallway all the time. Too many well meaning people asking every day, 'Are you married? Do you have kids of your own?'
A lot of very demanding people asking me for so much and not a lot of appreciation lately.

EDIT/UPDATE: My boyfriend and I are talking again, so at least that's one good thing. Makes all the other stresses a little more tolerable.

My one Twitter mutual seems to be falling into postpartum depression now... After a dangerous birth that necessitated an emergency c-section, they're still stuck in the hospital with what appears to be an infection developing in the incision. It took them until the end of the pregnancy to finally be happy with having a child, and now they understandably feel isolated and have been talking about how they just want to be with their spouse and baby, and don't want to eat or drink or do anything else. I wish I could do something to help, but we're separated by an ocean, so I can really only try to voice support...

I want to say I'm glad that I got sterilized and will never have to go through the same, but that just feels mean in this context. The situation just sucks.


Edit to say that I feel like I'm also just frustrated on their behalf. They didn't originally want a kid at all, but their husband did, so they caved. The whole pregnancy was extremely rough on them and they weren't happy with the arrangement, only coming around to motherhood once they were completely locked in, and then the birth could've killed them without surgical intervention. Now they're suffering alone in the hospital while the husband gets to be at home with the baby that he wanted. It's not my place to be mad, but I am.

One sex really just got completely screwed when it comes to human reproduction, and even despite being sterilized and asexual, that fact manages to make me uncomfortable with being female where nothing else does.

Adding a little bit of coconut milk and mixing it in before you heat it up can help neutralise spice. Assuming you like the overall flavour and the spice level is the only issue!

yeah, the spiciness of the curry sauce is the only problem 😅 the chicken's fine :love:

thanks :3 .... i'm sticking to the one with the noodles & chicken from now on : D
 
This is minor compared to what I've been dealing with the past few months, but I'm not sure if I want to continue taking my sleeping medication. I know I have a hard time maintaining my sleep schedule on my own, but I'm still feeling tired and out of it even with eight hours of sleep. My doctor is really insistent on me taking the meds, so I'm scared to tell him about my doubts. :confused:

Yesterday was a really stressful day at work, but I'm glad it's over with. I hate working late shifts, which made up most of my shifts during the past couple of weeks. My job just makes me tired and stressed in general, though.

This might sound obvious but is there any way you could have it reduced? I've cut my down a bit and I'm feeling more awake and effiecient with my day.
