I am so. Overwhelmed. I’m 37, married, 3 pets, no kids, decent income, no big health issues, but DAMN! Working full time and having a household and a spouse feels like literally all of the brain space I have.

And I don’t even have kids! (I am a full-time nanny and household manager for a HNW family of 7 though, so there’s that…)

Anytime I try to do something “extra”, like join a choir or keep up w friends or start an exercise routine… within about 3 weeks I feel like I can’t keep my head above water.

Right now, we’re planning a move, and I’m having heart palpitations on my way to work.

Is it like this for everyone?? Help!

What am I supposed to do?? Just float through my swimmy-ass life forever? Someone send help. Seriously. Help me, y’all. H e l p.

Edit: I’m a beginner, and there’s a lot about astrology I don’t know. But I’ve been told by the internet that this is a mess 😅😅

HOW do I add a screenshot of my chart??

I love them. And sometimes I even enjoy the hell out
of them and couldn’t imagine my life differently!

But holy bajeezus today is not one of those days.

I cannot. Repeat myself. Any. More.

I. Would like. To float. On some water. Uninterrupted. And then have a glass of wine. Also uninterrupted.

Can I get an amen and a cheers from anyone who just made it through a hellish week? Love to you! Raising kids is crazy!

My female Russian is spending a lot of her time
in her cool dry hide, out of the sun lamp. Is this normal?

She has a multi-level enclosure with two hides, a soaking pool, and moist area for digging, and a uva/uvb mercury vapor lamp.

But… she seems to prefer her upstairs hide which is dry and cool to her burrowing area under the uva/uvb bulb.

Is this cause for concern? She’s spending a lot of time up there… 🤷🏻‍♀️

After a lot of doubt and consideration, I’ve decided my marriage is not meant for my whole lifetime .

We are lovely funny friends. But we’re not a couple. He’s gone most of the time, not financially stable, no sex, I no longer see a future together. And we’re young. I want more for myself, even if it’s just me living on my own terms. No kids. Just pets. But I’m sure it will still be hard.

Send me encouragement! One of those things that is not easy but still right.

Hi all! Recently learned my tort’s diet is not quite right!

I’ve been feeding her a blend of dandelion greens, collards, cucumber and roughage pellets (softened) sprinkled with calcium. But I’m seeing a lot of info that collards and dandelion greens are too high in certain things.

Can someone give me a more specific/expert guide to the *best* diet a human can provide for their Russian tort in captivity??

Thank you!!
