Yeah, it looks like they're coming from outside, not inside, so that seems to bode well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how it is here too. It rained for a full three days non stop this past weekend, then it was brisk and chilly, then hot then cold again. Jesus, weather, make up your mind. I know teenage girls less indecisive than this. And... arvo? Edited October 12, 2016 by bleeder 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No specific fasts are prescribed for general Christianity, but fasting + prayer is strongly encouraged as a thing to do, and few of us bother in this day and age which is a shame). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Mormon church, we set aside the first Sunday of each month as a "scheduled" day of fasting--it's not mandatory, especially for children or people with problematic medical conditions, but having it regularly sort of serves as a reminder that fasting can help one feel closer to God. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pestis the Spider she/her Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Can I just say how I just absolutely hate my ADHD? I finally motivated myself to clean my room, which obviously involves taking some rubbish out. In the last hour I already lost my keys 3 times. And this time I lost them really, really well, so I'm kind of locked in the house. Lovely. I'm used to things disappearing randomly, but I don't like when they do it, when I need them. I'm surprised I ever manage to get anything done this way. Any idea where my keys can be? I've already checked the doors, my shelf (where my keys usually are), my jacket (where they usually are), the window ledge (where they usually are... they are usually in sooo many places), my bed (where they... well you know), the bathroom, the living room, the kitchen, the dressing gown, my pockets... I'm out of ideas. Eh. EDIT: Wait, I got inspired and just found them inside the package that I got 2 weeks ago and swore to unpack after I clean my room. Well, problem solved for a moment.

But for every hundred hours, I get a holiday, which is...something? Sorry. whine so much. I don't think I like your country's labor laws. In the States, for an hourly worker, you HAVE to pay them time-and-a-half for any hours over 40 in a given calendar week. And for overtime-exempt people, there's a minimum yearly salary they have to earn for them to be exempt from that overtime. It recently changed, actually; I got a fairly substantial raise out of the deal when the new rules went into effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistrunner Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Yesterday there was a marching competition four hours away. I didn't get home until 10:30 PM and when I did I had a blinding headache. Today there was a football game. I got back at midnight. I have had no time to do any homework. Teachers do not understand this. More, they say, give more work. Students couldn't possibly have anything else to do with their time. So here I am at nearly one AM trying to complete an assignment for Spanish that is impossible to do without having the notes they went over in class on Wednesday. I asked for the teacher to provide them. There's a link on Google Classroom, but it doesn't work. I have a feeling I might be up late. Yaaay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
