The last few days I’ve been trying to get more steps in. Yesterday was supposed to be a rest day, but I ended up deep cleaning for like 5 hours. I still took ~7k steps.

Today I am sound sensitive & agitated and jumpy. I felt so good walking, wtf? This is bullshit.

I recently* got an Apple Watch. I’ve never used one before.
I set it up and enabled all settings so they would be synced with my phone and StepsApp. However, my watch doesn’t track my steps with Workout, and only seems to *begin* tracking if I’m jogging, so then the numbers will say I’m only exercising for 10 minutes when I’ve been walking for well over an hour, so my Exercise ring is never full. :(

On Saturday I walked 11k steps, which reflected in Steps App, but not in Fitness.

They don’t match, why is it so difficult to get things to work? The Sync button should be capable. Am I just stupid?? (Yes, but come on).

This past year my physical health has declined along with my mental health. I’ve gained weight which I feel badly about. I may have chronic illness (mostly pain and PEM/light and sound sensitivity when overstimulated) although I still need to get looked at to confirm.

Recently I’ve had some bad knots in my neck and back from poor posture, and being sedentary.

Today, I got up and got ready for my day, did some warm up stretching, and walked for ~15 minutes. I’ve taken ~3,000 steps today. It’s not a lot at all. But better than nothing! I then had a protein shake with oats.
I feel better so far. And I’m trying not to push myself too hard, I’m terrible with pacing; I feel like it’s all or nothing, so I’m trying to change that.

Hi, I possibly have an interview at a mom and pop (or at least, not a chain) dog grooming shop for office assistant. I come from customer facing roles (mainly fast food for several years) and I did well there. I’ve never done reception/assistant before, but I’m eager to learn.

I’m not eloquent with words in person, so I feel like I don’t know how to make myself sound impressive.

Im too old for this insecurity.. what do I do?

So I (white guy, don’t know if that’s relevant and do not want to assume it’s based on race!!) like this international market (Hispanic, mainly?) near me. I’ve gone shopping there twice now, and every time they ask if I want bags. I say yes please, tell them how many, and the cashier ladies always announce “YEAH CAUSE THEY’RE FREE WITH EBT!” And I know it’s nothing to be ashamed of, I’m incredibly blessed to have this resource, but it just feels..embarrassing?

It’s been a real struggle lately, for the last several years actually- to will my brain into learning.

Well, today I picked up a good book (A Short History of Trans Misogyny) because I’m trying to be a better feminist. I had to follow along with the audio version, because I seem to absorb material better that way. I didn’t get too far because reading takes a lot out of me since I have to focus so hard. (Probably a.d.d., but I don’t have resources for that yet).
It gave me things to think about, and after a busy evening I decided I wanted to learn something else, so I went on khan academy to study math.
I had to go all the way back to basic algebra, which is embarrassing at my old age but, whatever.

Tiny steps today. It’s not gonna change the world. But maybe somehow it’ll give me confidence. Maybe that’s enough for now.

IM FUCKING SCARED

How safe is it after 5 pm? I have medical appointments near Rio Rancho soon and I’ve never been to the transit center.

I personally hated all the ones in Underworld with water that needed to rise, lower, etc. Tomb of Tihocan was especially maddening the first time I played and I had to use a walk thru lol.

I had what I thought was a UTI and bleeding, so I went to the doctor and they prescribed me Macrobid. I have IC (interstitial cystitis) and I hadn’t even considered my period because I already got it this month.

My culture came back negative for UTI, and I indeed started my period (I truly thought the blood was from my urethra), and I took my 4th dose of Macrobid today. Do I finish the antibiotics though they’re not needed?

I assume it’s every twelve hours, but the instructions don’t say exactly. Just “2 times a day for 7 days.”

It’s almost 4 pm now, should I take the first dose now or wait until a reasonable hour tomorrow morning (like 6 am?)

Two days ago I started feeling discomfort in my urethra after peeing. I have IC (interstitial cystitis) so I chalked it up to that, being in the hot tub, and not drinking enough water.

Yesterday afternoon I noticed blood when I wiped. Ok, maybe my period came early… but then the itching and burning got worse. I started actively bleeding from my urethra when not peeing! And now I’m passing clots. I’ve been up since 4 AM in pain. I took some Aleve, drank water, and I am waiting for the bus to urgent care.

The tower says power on, (blue) but online is a slow fading white light. The router (WiFi 7?) is slow blinking red. The Ethernet cables are plugged in securely, I’ve hit restart on both, unplugged from wall and each unit separately, waited several minutes to plug back in, and nothing…

Spectrum shows no outages in our area.

Edit: after power cycling two more times, it finally works. Sheesh..

Hi! I'm doing my sar7 for the first time. I opened a new credit union account earlier this year, and BenefitsCal lists bank accounts as assets; however it defines assets as things you:

• Bought, won, or got as a gift
• Sold, traded, gave away, or spent

I don't want to misreport anything, can someone help? I tend to overthink and freeze up, lol. Thank you!
