How have you been, SZP? Long time no see! <3

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 05:49 PM

Eli: that was nice of your friend! :) I'm currently sitting on the couch, with the dogs, putting my feet up. Ignoring things like laundry. Haha

SZP: Oh good point there! And nothing wrong with that. You're allowed to do what you need to do for you. <3 Take care of you. You're important and if that means being a hermit, that's fine.

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 05:50 PM

Livi, the great thing about laundry, it will wait for you.

SZP, nothing wrong with spending time with the cat and family. As long as the cat isn't also the family... [shock]

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 05:51 PM

Eh... But then it gets more terrifying. It's already a pile... That can't be ignored. I just hate doing laundry. [sweat]

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 05:58 PM

I'd help you, but laundry is the bane of my existence as well and there is only two of us in our apartment. Can't imagine the sheer amount of laundry for a house hold of four, with two more coming. Too bad house elves aren't a real thing.

Elirona 08-23-2016 05:59 PM

I like doing laundry... I'll do your laundry for you guys! :V

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 06:02 PM

Fantastic! Does this service include folding and putting it away, Elirona? Cause I would definitely be okay with that.

It's been ages! I've been okay. Up and down year, but I'm not complaining now [=3]
You??

That's a pretty good point as well!! I find that I get exhausted very easily now. Socialising exhausts me. SO I'm getting my fill of wonderous silence while I can [sweat]

Hehe. Well he's like... part of the family [=3] I wouldn't mind a cat family [:D]

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:04 PM

Yes, queenie! I'll happily fold and put away your laundry. [drool]

SZP: I'm glad you're doing okay! I would like to hear about your up and down year, if you've got the time. I've been doing okay. I was telling Livi yesterday that I've been dreading going back to school. ;-;

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 06:05 PM

Oh Alex doesn't mind doing it. Most of the time he doesn't mind at least. Folding is okay for me, because I can do it sitting down. But it's a bother when the kids "try" to help. But we need to stop putting it off.

---------- Post added 08-23-2016 at 11:07 AM ----------

SZP: Then I say you're doing the right thing being a hermit. [heart]

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 06:08 PM

Cat family....that would be rather interesting, SZP. A bunch of furry jerks that like to stick their butts in your face, could be traumatizing for some. [lol]

Livi, folding is the pits. Kind of wish there was a magical wand and the clothes would fold themselves, wrinkle free.

Elirona, you are so hired!

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:10 PM

Ooh, that must be a bit annoying, Livi. [ninja] have you considered doing the laundry while the children aren't paying attention? :P

---------- Post added 08-23-2016 at 02:11 PM ----------

Yay, a job! I really need an income. Thanks, queenie. <3

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 06:12 PM

Not sure how much I can pay you and it would only be like a couple loads of laundry. I'll supply soap and dryer sheets.

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:14 PM

Hmm, okay, I can work with that. As long as you feed me. [ninja]

Queen_Andais 08-23-2016 06:16 PM

Not a problem, I love to cook.

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:17 PM

There, so it balances out! :P

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 06:22 PM

Eli: Yes. That's what I usually do. Which is why I should do it now. When they're not here.

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:23 PM

Get on it then, Livi!! [cheer]

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 06:24 PM

No energy though. I'm totally drained of all energy these days. Nap time I think.

Ava The Vampire 08-23-2016 06:26 PM

Hey Maria! Congrats. :D
Welcome back to the land of the living Menewshans!

I thought I posted this earlier but I guess my computer just had a meltdown and decided not to post it for me. [stare]

Thanks Eli! I'll tell you about it [sweat] Where to start? Well first there was uni problems. My course was making me depressed and brought out my anxiety so I had to drop out. Then my grandfather had a stroke that basically made him dependent. SO he came to stay with us. It was fine for a while, but then we remembered how much we didn't get along. I think the fact that he couldn't walk made him angry, which added to his irrationality as well. Later we found out that he had developed dementia too. So home life became very stressful and difficult. Lot's of shouting matches. That's the just of the hardships. Recently he's gone to live with my aunt whom he gets along better with. So things are calm now and he's happier. Also on a good note, I got a tattoo and cut all my hair off [:D]
Oh no, why's that? Getting tough?

True that! [XD] I'd want a cat family like my cat. Gus is... not like normal cat. Like he's the least assholey cat I've ever come across O.o

LiviInLove 08-23-2016 06:32 PM

You're welcome hon. :)

Elirona 08-23-2016 06:42 PM

Ooh yeah, uni problems are literally the worst. Just even thinking about school gives me anxiety. I'm sorry about your grandpa. My boyfriend's uncle had a stroke a little ways back and he's been getting frustrated that he can't communicate well, since the stroke took a lot of his speaking ability away. A stroke + dementia must be hell on both your family and your grandpa. :( I think making a drastic change like cutting off your hair and getting a tattoo is definitely a good way to change the mood, imo. School just makes me feel like shit because I've been in college for 4 years now and I'm not any closer to earning a degree and the debt is just piling on, lol.

Le sigh. And to think we once thought high school couldn't get any worse >.>
Thanks Eli. It was really hard and I don't think we thought a lot of things through. If we had done that it might have made a difference. I'm just stuff has worked out, but his health isn't any better [:?]
Yup, that was what kinda pushed me to do it. I needed a full on fresh start [:B]
Oh man, I know that feeling. I finished school in 2012 and here I still am stumbling along. And my funds run out next year. I'm really really sorry, it really is the worst [cry]

Elirona 08-23-2016 07:02 PM

The world definitely hasn't been kind to us millennials.
