I`ll try to put it as concise as possible.

I`m from a very infamous country that`s on the news a lot and I`m finally kinda can afford to move out to EU through a blue card. I haven`t landed an offer yet but I think it`s complitely doable by the end of the year though not easy by any stretch.

But thinking about moving out and how it`s gonna change my life brings me to tears. And I can`t decide if it`s for the better of for worse.

The benefits are obvious - I might start making more money and live in a stable country. Unlike living in constant anxiety and turbulenced not knowing if my country goes north korea in 5 years or falls apart in a civil war. I know i can`t keep making more money and growing my career at home anymore.

I`ve also always had a kind of a dream to live abroad for a couple of years so if things get better at home, I might just come back as well.

But the change it brings to my life... oh god. I feel like `im about to choose the exact scenario i`ve wanted to not live my whole life.

The thing is I have a whole sad history in my family and my parents aren`t getting any younger and i`m scared to lose them before we can really talk it over and get closer. Which is incredible unlikely with me constantly living away (I have since 17). Coming back to see them from EU is gonna be MUCH harder. And they absolutely won`t be coming to see me.

Another thing goes from there - when I have kids, my kids are never gonna be close to their grandparents and their cousins. They are not gonna see each other regularly. I know it cuz it`s just exactly the way I grew up. My granparents dead before I learned to walk and this emptiness haunts me still. the lack of them. I never want this for my children and I want my family around when I have my own family. the way it was for my sister too.

But my family doesn`t understand all this. They can`t gather up the curage to support me. they don`t have a clue why i want to move, they don`t understand nor my very rational fear of our country up in flames, neither my aspiration to continue my career abroad.

I feel like I`m on a huge crossroads and about to strip myself of something i`ve never really had but hoped for (good family dynamic and having them around) and giving myself the ultimate adventure\dream (moving abroad). And somehow these two come together.

Should i trust my guts and risk it and go abroad? I feel like there are just too many factors involved and I geniounly can`t find any peace with any desicion regardiing all this.

I desprately need an advice or like a bigger perspective of someone who`s been there.

So, basically the question.

My sheltie has a habit where if she needs my attention somewhere, she sometimes won’t come to get me, no. My diva will stand where she wants me and will bark for me with her special 🦅🚨demanding kind of bark.

Like, she’ll get on the bed and will bark for me because that’s where we play sometimes. She wants me to come play there.

Or today I was having dinner and gave her a piece of some boiled plane beef I was having (yeah I love plane boiled beef). Then I had to go to another room to get something and I heard her demanding bark again. ✨The Diva✨ was sitting at the table looking at me then looking at the table where my plate was.

Is it just her? Is it sheltie-specific? Or is it diva-peculiar?

Pretty much the title. I have no one to discuss this with but I’m productive, I wake up and want to get up, I returned to my German and driving lessons.
I walk the dog daily, I eat without guilt.

For a while there I seriously felt I was broken beyond repair and the last 3-4 months on lithium were heavy on me but being off gave me back my dopamine while having restored my overall mental health.

I’m so glad.

P.S. happy and hopefully not hypomanic because it’s sunny and summery again. Try to slow myself down and have the rest just in case though.

Various users in my organisation have either local or English language selected as interface preference.
So, their user culture could be RU or EN.

I have a report which has two cultures (two translations) but I want the default one to be the locale no matter what the user culture is.

How can I do that?

I’ve managed to achieve this by changing the url of the reports with ?language=RU but since this report needs to be accessed via our workspace app and adding a report there via a link always leads to a separate browser tab which is not great.

Fo you have any advice?
I don’t want to do any duplicate pages or measures to the report,

I am considering going homemade diet for my sheltie. AT least considering to five it a try.
Can you please share your expreience or give some advice?

I`ve been giving my sheltie kibble + wet pouch of the same brand since puppihood but I`ve noticed some long-term symptoms that always leave questioning if i should change her diet.

First, she has a bit of an itch and rather dry fur coat.

Second, her stool is not stable - mostly ok but she has occasional soft stool or even diahrea for 1-2 weeks from time to time. And out vet says her gut is very sensitive and she also reacts to stress. Which I agree with cuz we`ve excluded all other factors (infections, inflamations etc.).

Her blood tests and ultra-sound results are always great but showing sort of a slight allergic reaction. I also notice her sneeze sometimes.

For the love of God, I have no idea what she might be allergic to other than her food. She isn`t given anything else. I don`t use any chemical around the appartment but maybe the detergent (I air dry my laundry so potentially it might be the problem.)

She isn`t ding bad but these slight issues still bother me and changing to a different brand of store bought food ihas never been the success for us sadly. Only causing more bad stool.
