Got custody of my niece last month, just read the entire court document and they worded it wrong so I don’t get the monthly support check. Florida has NEVER gotten it right. 🤬 There is no dentist in two hour radius that takes Medicaid and I’ve been putting off her checkup because it’s $400 locally.

It's not bad, but I've just ran out of cannabis, so I'll see how well it goes later throughout the week. 👀

I'll be decorating a cake due tomorrow morning, I'm sure it'll turn out fine though 🤟. It'll be similar to this one:

Hopefully your week is going well so far!

[–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Very nice cake, I'm sure yours will look as great!

It is going well, thank you!

[–] Skull@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It isn't bad, too bad the kitchen was too warm for the buttercream. 😅

[–] Zerlyna@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

That looks awesome!!! Great job. ❤️

[–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wow, that's cool, you could probably make a post of its own with this!

[–] Skull@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

You're too kind 🤭

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How does it usually go when you've run out similarly?

[–] Skull@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

It usually isn't bad, but I've been putting a lot of hours into my job, so having it to take the edge off when I get home is nice. Also it give me a, "I don't care about being angry" mentality.. which helps me just get certain chores finished.. like cleaning the entire kitchen.

It helps distract myself from the passive-aggressive attitude and "helping" around the house from certain family members.

The last time I've ran out.. the first three weeks are a drag, but it isn't that bad on comparison to other substances.

That's a pretty design!

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 week ago

No work today. Gonna make a cast iron pizza. Then play Satisfactory until I get sleepy.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

just got terminated. so not great.

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fuck, I'm sorry. I hope you're able to bounce back.

I mean serial unemployment is a fact of life for americans now so its just the repeat of the cycle. I have generally gone years between so I have been pretty lucky overall.

[–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

so was I :) :| :(

[–] kionite231@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

nothing much tbh, it's just wake up, go to work, come back home and sleep and the cycle repeats. It was the same for the entire week. weekends are different though.

btw I also learned about new language called "Toki Pona" it only has 120 words.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

And 96 of them are obscene...

[–] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

toki! mi kepeken toki pona! wile sona li mute e sona.

[–] berryjam@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Full of feelings. Nowhere to put them. Procrastinating on things I have to do...

At least we're almost at the weekend!

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 1 week ago

Not horrendously bad? I had a depressive episode and nearly made some bad choices, but looking at it objectively, everything's fine externally. Weren't any outside factors getting worse that drove me here, nothing I can't bounce back from.

I think I'm just tired the gym/work/sleep cycle every single day, but it feels like whenever I try to expand, the door gets slammed in my face.

Hoping something pans out soon.

No complaints really, only that I'm supposed to be assigned a thesis supervisor 3 days ago, and as of yet, nothing has happened.
