Took me a few months to get used to my Mirena. I think I’m taking it out in the summer though. Every fucking thing makes me cry. I was watching HP and the Goblet of Fire the other day and the quidditch World Cup made me SOB. Like full on ugly bawling. And it’s ruined my sex drive.

Niice! I have Skyla. Not a terrible emotional adjustment, but the insertion was the most painful experience I’ve ever had and my cramps are the kind that make you double over in pain and get dizzy.

I was a nightmare on the pill and then a cranky nightmare when I went off of the pill. Assuming your pill had estrogen in it, your body might be reacting to that, since Mirena is progestin only.

Hoping to report good news next week. Thanks!

Ohhhh man I feel you, I went from the pill to the copper (non-hormonal) IUD a few years ago. Not gonna lie, it took a year for things to even out for me and it was super miserable at times, but I’d do it again in a heartbeat for years-long thought-free BC. If you have a mirena/skyla hopefully your adjustment period is…

Good question. I can’t even remember the last time that happened. I think I mostly nap? Uninterrupted sleep is a luxury I don’t get often. But I’m following because I need some self-care ideas!

When I bought my brand new car without a co-signer or without taking my parents with me. I got pre-approved for a loan with low interest from my bank and drove away in it. That was a couple of years ago and I still feel good when I drive it.

Had a busy day - took the car for a service appointment, went on a bike ride for the first time in probably a decade, and also groomed the shit out of Amy.

The first time I paid my own dental bill. FUCKING FILLINGS ARE EXPENSIVE.

sending good will your way! we’re moving states next summer and I can’t wait! good luck!

Hi friends! In an attempt to distract myself from the debilitating crush of our progressive society slowly being consumed by a neoconservative shitmonster, I’ve been trying to focus on methods of and goals for self care. One particularly fun way has been to peruse lists of “Things Every Self-Identified Woman Should Do…

Sign that I am becoming An Old: I got a new refrigerator and I am inordinately excited about it. It’s not even a fancy one! It’s just new and clean and doesn’t smell weird or have colonies of new life growing in the back... and so far has a consistent temperature. You know, things that make a refrigerator good at…

My neighbor in my new apartment has not brought her cat in, despite it being 19 degrees outside. I’m on my way to get supplies to make one of those cat shelter things with a plastic storage tote.

This upcoming week is going to be an important one for me. I have a phone interview on Monday for a position back in my home state. I’m really hoping for this to pan out because I really don’t think I can stay here for another year. If anyone has any good will to send my way, I’m more than willing to take it.

Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack?

Craft thread!

Yup, how he looks has nothing to do with it. He is a bad person because of his actions.

Look he can’t hel...

FUCK HER AND TREVOR NOAH FOR ALLOWING HER ON THE SHOW.
