  1. Oh and along with my 2 daughter's I also live with 3 technically adult boys (my 20 year old son and 2 of his friends who are 18 and 19). But they don't really help much just make more mess...
  2. He was swearing at me in Norwegian lol. I'm not a superwoman, I don't even think I get half the stuff I do right most of the time.

  4. So some days being an adult is far less fun than I was led to believe and I just need to vent about my day... feel free to vent with me lol. So I'm a nursing assistant in a nursing home. I work nights (9:45 pm to 6:15 am). We are very short staffed on nights right now, to the point where I've been the only cna in the building some nights (with a nurse but sometimes they're not helpful because physical cares are beneath them). The nursing home I work at currently has 63 residents, most of whom need help with something or many something's throughout the night. So I walk about 4 miles on average every night. I lift, roll, move people all night. Tonight I got pounded on and yelled at by a sometimes sweet little old man who punches like a champ (my arm hurts and will probably be bruised). I can't stop what I'm doing because he's hitting me I can only try to as nicely as possible explain I need to finish doing this and then I will leave him alone. Then I come home from work and have to get 2 kids up for school and make sure they have their things, etc, take out the dogs (we have 6 because the kids swore they would take care of the puppies when my apparently still fertile 16 year old Bassett knocked up my pit bull) but guess who winds up doing all the work... me... At some point here I'll sleep for a few hours but I have to be up by 3 when the kids get home. Then after they get home I'll do my daily cleaning, wash dishes, cook dinner, fold the 2 baskets of laundry sitting in the living room, maybe run errands if necessary. Lather, rinse, repeat... And I do it all by myself (while internalizing large amounts of emotional stress) I'm tired... if you actually read all that thank you so much for listening to me vent lol.

  24. @FireNymph your progress is amazing! I kind of stopped going to the gym. I'm just got so busy with work and school over the summer I didn't have time. And now my workout partner is back in school and cheerleading and doesn't have time to go. I need to just start using my treadmill or something. I walk 5 or 6 miles at work every night though lok
