Sending you love, klw. I am glad you have her ring. I wear my great grandma's wedding ring on my right hand every day and it means so much to me that I was able to have it so I understand that sentiment.

Had an appointment with my psychiatrist today and we are trying something new. She thinks my meds haven't been working for me, because I'm not depressed. I do have plenty of anxiety, but I might just have an attention deficit disorder. We talked throught it and like yeah, i tick so many of the boxes. And my mother takes medication for add and my brother used to as well. So it shouldn't surprise me but it did. So here is to hoping for good things with new meds.

klw, I’m sending love your way. I’m glad you are getting the ring. I have some jewelry from my Gram and it’s such a tangible, comforting way to remember her.

Thank you! This is pretty huge for us, especially after the chaos of the last 5 years. It was my dad's house, and selling it allowed him to pay off the house he lives in now. He might actually be able to start thinking about retirement, or at the very least, slow down some. He's almost 70 and has worked long hours for as long as I can remember. This makes me so very happy for him!

The overlaps in symptoms can make it so hard to treat this stuff. I hope the new approach is helpful!

Who was talking about the Amazon toy catalog and how does one go about getting it? I'm trying not to be bitter that I never get sent one.

One thing to do is to go to www.amazon.com/gp/cpc/homepage and see what your mail preferences are. If it's set to not receiving mail from Amazon, they won't send you one. Otherwise, you can pick one up at a physical Amazon store location if there's one near you.

Do you want to live in a quiet house or not. 😅

Also, it's a slow arrival. Remember that mail sucks right now.

Mine just came two days ago. 🤞 A quick search says they send it to a select set of customers, but given that I've bought from them since I was in college in the early aughts...😒

I am set to be receive things from them by mail, so here's hoping we get a catalog this year

And it’s a computer QWERTY keyboard lights up when you type. But the answer is no to the quiet house

I automatically assumed musical instruments because that's what my nearly five year old keeps asking for for her birthday and Christmas. Grandpa (my dad) is sending a ukulele and I think that may be my limit. I'll let you know if one arrives, otherwise I'll probably take you up on the catalog offer. (And thank you.)

We have a guitar my brother bought her. And this she is learning violin at school. She gave a wee little presentation one night when I was in a zoom training. That was fun😂
She is not musically inclined and ill lie all day if anyone tells her I said that.

After my sister bought both of kids musical instruments, I REALLY enjoyed giving my nephew a set for his birthday the other day. Her FI looked at me and was laughing. I said sorry, but it's time for paybacks. 🤣

Was anyone in touch with @heartbot offboard? I miss her a lot.
I also think a lot of people here who pushed back on a lot of her thoughts regarding how race is ultimately the root of most US ills, understand this more clearly now. I wish her voice was still here.
Also this is not an indictment of anyone here. Just pointing out that a lot of understanding and growth has taken place in this forum (which is awesome).
