Thanks
@Mach123. I don't read a lot here, either. I write a lot but don't read much and it makes me feel pretty self-centered, but it is what it is. I make regular effort to read more.
I'm pretty middle of the road, politically. I considered myself a libertarian at heart until recently with all the pandemic push back and some of what I watched in Portland. Now, I don't know how to feel about people and their abilities to control themselves. It's all pretty strange, really.
I was raised all country conservative, but moved to Los Angeles County at 13, only to end up back in rural Oregon at 25 where I lived for 14 years. I've heard a lot of good points about a lot of stuff from both sides. But I got a sort of bias against conservatives after my fiance got a good old-fashioned country ass kicking while he was terminally ill, just for fun. However, he was a conservative and so is my husband, so the bias only runs so deep and I like people, in general, so I hate having a prejudice like that. I cannot, however, help but blame the poorly-informed rural area culture we lived in -- conservative, redneck, whatever.
I know I could/would attack someone who came after my husband, but that would probably be it. I obviously don't have children.
I feel that way often. I feel very powerless, which doesn't feel very forward-thinking of me, but I feel like I am just barely limping along here, and don't have enough energy for much else.
Do you have any ideas in mind? I have done a lot of research on work from home stuff and just finished a class on the subject, so I might know of some resources if you have anything you are considering doing from home.
Since I have a bunch of injuries still, I have finally settled on working from home. I was a covid layoff, so I need to get moving in the work arena, too.
Happy Christmas to you!
