What are you doing today?

Work has been pretty busy, been on 60’s for the past month or two. Finally get a saturday off this weekend. Pretty stoked, going to be able to get in to Pokemon Sword.
Also, bought a kendama from the hardware store the other day. Been dabbling with that since I got off work today. They are quite fun and challenging. I havnt looked into tricks yet, but I have gotten the hang of spiking it.

My router crapped out on me while I was working this afternoon so I has to run out and buy a new one. Lucked out that Best Buy had the one I wanted (the Staples near me didn’t). Now I get to work for two more hours to make up the time I lost :skull:

On the plus side it looks like something out of Batman or the new Star Wars trilogy

80 lb resistance band snapped this morning while exercising and metal handle parts hit me in the head! Nearly blacked out. Lots of blood. In ER awaiting staples and CT results for possible cracked skull!! :face_with_head_bandage:

I hope it’s not fractured and just a flesh wound. (Not exactly “just” a flesh wound but you get what I mean)

I hope you get better soon that looks like it hurt like a mother …

This is just horrible, hope it heals quickly. It gave you a concussion?
Seems so. at least you have lots of hair to hide any potential scarring.

Oh no Gnome Gnomes! :frowning:

Look at the bright side though!..at least you had a good excuse to quit exercising early!!

I hope things aren’t too serious man.

The “liking” of bad news in a post doesn’t feel right lol. I know the member’s heart are in the right place though and wishing a quick recovery.

lol I so get what you’re saying.
In this case though I kinda look at it as less of ‘liking’ his post…and more of leaving him a heart on his post. :slight_smile:

I know these forums aren’t the place for this…

But I’ve been struggling all week with my mom’s passing. I keep waking during the night calling out for her, then realizing she’s gone. Or I woke up last night and thought I was in my old house we lived in…and she was asleep in her bedroom just down the hall from me. Then very suddenly I realized I was in my apartment and I’ll never see her again.

My sleep has been a wreck and I’m having a hard time. /sigh I think it’s the holidays doing me in atm. Man I miss her.

…I don’t know. I just needed a vent.

FYI as someone who struggles in the fall/winter.

It’s likely made worse because of the time of year. Whether it’s the memories of going back to school after summer and seeing friends/getting back into the routine, thanksgiving/Christmas time with family, there are a lot of positive associations people have with this time of year that they miss engaging in now that they’re older and often less involved with friends and family as they were when they were younger. Combine that with it getting dark earlier and the cold and bad weather and you’re gonna have a bad time.

I just do my best to find things to occupy my mind and distract me when I get in my head too much.
