I thought I'd be out and about all summer, but I truly like being home. I do get out once or twice a week, though.
I'm due to take myself out. Maybe I'll treat myself to a dine in movie.

My youngest sister is irritating me. She forgets I was 11 when she was born and she less knowledge than she thinks of my life up until she got old enough to remember.

Good Morning Ladies!
I’ve been a little MIA because I’ve been busy moving. Moving is no joke! I still have a lot of work to do but I have made good progress. I am so happy to see this thread still going strong, more than 1,500 posts! I hope everyone has a great weekend!

It was OK once I got in. It was my first time, so not sure what to expect. I'm glad I came early because the lines were ridiculously long to get my gift bag. Once inside, the lines to most of the popular venders were long, too. They kept insisting that you needed a ticket to attend, but some people went and got freebies BEFORE getting on the lines to "Register" and get their bags. When I first got there, it took asking a few people before I found out where to check in. I didn't stay very long., as those I thought I was coming with decided not to go. After waiting 45 minutes to register (the Platinum line moved slower than the others), standing in even more lines wasn't really appealing.
In short, I don't need to go back anytime soon.

Listening to your sis is something. You make time for her and you are a witness to her life. That is a beautiful thing. You should feel good, not bad.

Thanks @hopeful. I get it. I feel bad bcuz she is suffering

Ok I understand. My therapist has helped me understand that suffering is part of the human condition. The suffering she is enduring is probably trying to teach her something about herself, life, or people in general. She will likely have to change or gather courage to end her current suffering. There’s nothing you can do about that. No one likes suffering but all of us will suffer off and on throughout our lives. That said, your love and compassion for her current situation and suffering is a testament to life being not just about suffering but also about love, kindness, healing, good relationships, and so much more. I’m glad your sister has you. And that you have her — it’s a beautiful thing. You both need each other.

Reading about instant pots. I'm thinking about getting one, especially if it cuts down on cooking time.

Every time my mom or brother complain of tooth pain I want to roll my eyes out of my head. If you grown people don't go to the dentist! Now I just say "aw that sucks" and keep it moving. Lol.

I just got back from wine country. It was a good time. I think I may stay still for a lil bit buuuuut I want to go to TX next month.
I was in a rut where I was attending the same events with the same people. Folks are going to be disappointed because I am over a lot of them.

What are ya'll doing this weekend? I am going to an Art and Wine fest on Sunday, probably going to hike Saturday morning. Hit up Trader Joe's for some groceries and flowers for the house. I am expanding my little patio garden, and want to check out this plant nursery someone recommended. I may not get to that this weekend though.

I'm laying low this weekend. I have tentative brunch plans on Sunday. A couple of friends are coming up on Saturday. We may bbq.
Nothing too much. I need to clean up my house a bit.

I did some cleaning and purging of things last weekend, it makes such a difference in the how your space feels. I ordered an aromatherapy oil diffuser for my bedroom, trying to lighten the air and space a bit. I may go on the hunt for some frames online to finally hang these prints I have had for ages LOL
I am going to the movies tonight with my sis. Tomorrow I think I might hang out with a friend but those are tentative plans. Sunday I plan on taking myself to breakfast at this spot by my house and then hitting up a book store and if weather permits going to Prospect Park and reading on the grass. It has become my favorite thing to do. I've been doing really well with taking one day to have for myself and just pamper me and do things that make me smile. I love that calm feeling I get when I'm having a good day.
I absolutely love mine and I love buying new oils to see how they smell.

I bought one when someone posted about it on the forum. The thread was hilarious! I think almost everyone who came in there went out and bought one.

Super long story short - My dental crown was installed using dental cement instead of the regular screw in version for valid reasons. Unfortunately two years in, it was causing me migraines, and I developed an abscess so my Oral Surgeon requested that my dentist remove it so that he could determine if it was viable because the $250 X-Rays paid out of pocket couldn't see past.
Yesterday, the dentist spent an hour including two breaks tryna pull this thing out of my head before he finally drilling through the crown (destroying it) to remove it and the cement. I spent almost the entirety of yesterday going back and forth from the dentist to the oral surgeon because one put the crown on and the other put the implant in.
So now I'm toofless for two weeks until the new crown is available!
Luckily it's not so noticeable if you're directly in front of me but if you're on my left side and I laugh, I look like a jack-o-lantern.

I went to the movies last night with my sister and had a great time! It was so funny how she was ahead of me in a few things yesterday but things worked out better for me. lol Example: She left work before I did and hopped right on the train so she was jokingly complaining about how she would get to the spot before me. I left 15 minutes after she did, then stopped at Wendys to get food and still got there first and managed to finish my meal before she arrived. Plus it was raining and I didn't have an umbrella but my bantu knot out was still fresh . 2nd example: When the movie was over she wanted to rush to the bathroom so I let her go and I sat until the credits rolled and the lights came on. I went to look for her after and she said she was still online. So I go to the 2nd floor and I see there's a line but there are only men on it so I peek around the corner and see the separate bathrooms and go right into the womens. I texted her asking if she was in there and checked the stalls. She wasn't so I used the bathroom, fixed my makeup and called her and she was still online at the bathroom downstairs We joked about her bad luck on the way home. But we had a great night.
Right now I am sitting on the couch under this cool fan but about to go dig into some good Vietnamese food and come back and read for a while. I haven't heard from my friend about tonight but mess around and I might just pick up lunch and dinner at the Vietnamese spot and plan my night at home.
