A Little Community Check In
We're all tired here, aren't we?
We have a bunch of new arrivals here at World-Weary!
Come on in, folks. Cookies and cinnamon rolls are on your left, tea, coffee and water are on the right. Pick your poison of choice and settle in.
Kick off your shoes, let your hair down, put your feet up and grab a comfy blanket of your choosing. It’s time for a little community check in.
It’s been a while since we’ve had a little meeting, hasn’t it? A lot has gone on in the world, a lot of problems exposed, a lot of daily life is getting worse, more expensive and more dangerous.
For some of us, mental health is lower than ever.
If that’s the case for you, I want to know. It’s time to vent.
I personally got news for my health that necessitated a complete lifestyle change, and I’m still fighting with immigration over my spouse. Hopefully that fight will be over soon, but I’ve been saying that for months.
I’m feeling very emotionally tired. I’m not going to let it tear me away from my work here.
That’s my bit of oversharing for the day; I’m weary.
How about you? What’s eating at you? What’s grinding you down? Let’s talk about it in the comments if you feel comfortable with it; I’d love to see this community step in to offer each other a virtual shoulder to lean on.
We’re all tired here at World-Weary. But we’re here because we care.
Solidarity wins.
I wrote a post in my blog at www.crann-na-beatha.com/blog last night, details all of my latest trials over the last two weeks. Everything from IT issues, to online scammers and the coming recession/depression. Needless to say, it's been a rough couple of weeks, and it's still far from being done. I have a lot more on my plate before I can draw a relaxed breath. I'm on my way out the door to by a new hard drive for a computer right now because Amazon can't deliver the one I ordered nearly two weeks ago. And it was ordered from an American company out of New York. That just goes to show us how bad the U.S. economy, especially the tech sector, is failing and no one is talking about this very much.
I caught COVID-19 for the 3rd time back in March and I am seriously over idiots saying it's just like a cold and nothing to worry about. I thought my number was going to be up, but making sure I was up to date with my jabs meant that this time around I got away with it with only some damage to my left lung and my CFS/ME flaring up and making life more difficult to get anything done. My daughter though ended up barely able to walk and now needs a wheelchair to get around. I do my best to look after her, but at my age I never seem to have enough spoons to be of much help. I've given up watching the news. There's nothing I can do about any of the bad crap and wicked arseholes tearing apart this world of ours and all it does put my heart rate into tailspin. If somehow I was offered a device with a big red button on it and told that it would wipe out them all out I wouldn't hesitate over slapping my hand down on it.
