sounds like a great evening aaron! enjoy!
i'll be real i think we're gonna straight up bum one of the runways themes this week cuz i was absolutely intrigued at the entries for it. the one called sit down turn around. altho ours could just be "the other side!" and be w/e avatar we want long as we are turned away from front view lol. should go see the entries today on gaia's runway they were so cool! i may start doing some dress up sometimes turned away after all the ideas i was getting lookin thru it!
anywhere there's a peek at this weeks theme coming! anything long as ur looking away lol
i survived my check up and blood draw. i'll stress bout if my cholesterols better or liver is any worse stuff like that but we'll see. actually i forgot last time i went my cholesterol wasnt that bad. 210.. i mean for my family that's great lol the trigs were high tho. seems like i can get one or the other close to ok but not both. hope things look better this go round probably wil find out monday. just glad its over. i washed the fishdoorbell while i got blood drawn lol. im such an adult lol but it helped. i saw 2 big a** fish on there last nite altho i only screenshotted their butt fins but by gosh i hit the bell!
happy thursday ya'll! and we've hit 100 pages on this thread! I think that deserves a hell ya and a gif! thanks for this thread idea aaron!

Ayoo sorry been a lil flighty, working a lot and this High Court decision in the UK has really thrown me for a loop. Bigots are just emboldened now, come into my work just spewing hate and I'm like "Ok you wanna buy a pendant or?" Same here Magarah! I just had to pull out my winter ponchos I had just stored away. Constant cold and rain again atm Woop woop I didn't even notice this thread hit that Rydia, so cool. It's actually been a few years since I found this place now, crazy cause it doesn't feel that long. I did get excited about Catwalk 52 cause it meant we had done an entire year of lewks Yeah "the other side" is so open to interpretion, I just couldn't pull together a Garden party look, I trashed every attempt I made lol Looking forward to doing this one! Glad the draw went ok, 210 isn't that much higher than normal given what ou said about your family history, "normal" is 193, the gap isn't that big the work you have done for your health has deffo paid dividends I keep obsessively doing crunches and getting the same thing with my stomach, it just feels so good when it's tightened up. I got the 2 lookbooks done today now gotta figure out what to do with the evening, binging more Sopranos atm. I started playing Bayo 3 but after 2 hours of rly trying I realised I just don't like it It'll end up being something on the switch I'm sure. Have a good one peeps! heart

ya i'm just heart sick with the state of things atm. im so sorry you're dealing with that. i have family that act bout that dumb. i dont keep in touch with them at all. there's alot of reasons i keep to myself and only keep in contact with a few. and even those few could use some work on their views.
i was raised. in like literally one of if not the poorest area in the US mcdowell county wv. and graduated there. there's literally 0 excuses to grow up hating ppl just cuz its all around you. and i feel like i'm proof of that. its a choice ppl make cuz they feel good doing it. until their number comes up... then its boo hoo. im glad i never wanted kids. i'd be sad watching them trying to maneuver thru the world now.
OMG i missed a fookin big a** fish on the fishdoorbell just now ahhh! it was purdy! it must be picking up!
i rly love the other side idea. i have hardly ever made turned around avatars. the possibilites are so vast! i love how yours is looking aaron! im going to use that turn around pose in more of my themes in future. not making it a theme in future again necessarily but hell u could use turned around for any theme interpretation. and ya garden party was hard on a couple folks. some just dont sync! the bun bun egg one might not next week but i have no problem if ppl choose to make evil demonic bunny egg goth w/e they feel with it. in case that helps folks there's no wrong way. but if a weeks theme don't work with ya dont sweat it. there's always next week!
my cholersterol and trigs came down lil bits not enough but some! all of em! except vldl stayed same w/e that is but. 346 trig to 306. 210 cholesterol to 202. good and bad cholesterol improved a few pts. i'm hoping maybe it'll gradually improve by next 6 months. last month or two i've added the miles a day walking and buncha healthy eating.
but the alp was elevated. that's a liver enzyme. but all over liver and kidney and stuff was ok. so that might just be the antibiotic i took couple weeks ago for tooh. which still needs another deep cleaning and another round of antibiotics to be done with that issue.
i hope this dear diary doesnt bother ppl lol.. i figure at worst my ramblings are cautionary tales altho im not ancient.. i'm only 44. rofl altho i feel like im gonna have to become a full metal alchemist to overcome my genetics lol.. altho i've only watched a lil of that show. i dont want to eff up some of the stuff i saw on that show lol
i'll check with dr monday. i shouldnt get results over weekend and i should have my net blocked from googling medical info lmao. time to go walk and play the new phasmophobia update. maybe some sims..
i dont thiiiink its my kava after checking with my uncle who has fought this for lot of his life. actually most my family have. so that makes me a lil happy!
omfg shut up rydia haha get off ur a** and go walk!
happy saturday ya'll!

Nahh Rydia it's not a bother in the remotest, I rly like how the thread is just a say whatever spam place. There's a lot to relate to so it feels less like you're out in space alone on planet you to read other people got the same stuff. I had the same thing kinda, born in a dumbass rural town that seemed stuck in the 1980s with social attitudes. Just a really hateful cookie cutter place, but I just never saw how classless violence, excessive alcohol consumption and prejudice were things worth investing time in. Got out and moved to a nearby city then somewhere super rural but also a progressive pocket, but that seemed to be shaking up lately, farmers can be dicks lol. Just focusing on hunkering down this great situation I am in and defending it like an attack dog. I found my peace no one is messing with it goddamn it it took me 29 years to get here. I rly hope your results come back better cause all that health effort better pay some sorta dividend whee Now I'm 30 this year I am so overly aware whever my chest feels any degree of tightness, I rly gotta look at my fat intake cause my bf likes to shallow fry in butter and while the results are amazing, long term tho idk maybe better to change some things. Hey Magarah! Hope things are good! Been working all day and tomorrow too, not very eastery, I may eat a chocolate egg now though. Lol right after talking about health too. Bold faced hypocrite out! xp

Omfg they sound so good! I am the biggest chocoholic ever lol Every coffee I make for myself has some degree of chocolate in it xp I have been although I was devastated that it was really oval shaped, like wide on one side but skinny on the sides, are times really that bad? crying It's ok though I do have 3 of them. Finally off tomorrow which is good cause I gotta catch up on Zzz's, been averaging 6 hrs a night lately. Gonna deep dive into more diablo for the rest of the evening, have a fab one!

lort i didnt realize i didnt even post yesterday. i didnt sleep like hardly at all worrying bout talking to dr and getting mom to her appt. i got hold of drs nurse. just said keep doing what i'm doing just more of it. wasnt worried bout the alp cuz of tooth stuff just get it fixed which im workin on it. found a dentist mom can go to on the cheap first of the month yay. and bro took her to her appt. instead of cta scans and lots of test to figure out if she needs heart cath to clear up stuff my bro's heart attack dr /surgeon who saved him said just go ahead and get the wrist entry heart cath done. it'll save money on testing and in the likelihood there's at least a lil bit of cleaning out that can be done at her age it'll get done all in one visit and any stints discovered needed could be done at same time then done. she liked the idea. and i'll know she's all good after that so i'll take it as a win.
down like 9 lbs since i started acting right and walking. the past week i've lost a few so im getting more positive about that. deep cleaned my room over weekend. went thru totes of stuff from 20 yrs ago organized pics and all sortsa documents. trying to find title to sell my old van to help make some ends meet. got a lil jeep i was fixing up anyway.
so ya.. we're still broke still worrying bout house. but health and teeth are starting to shape up. lawyer workign hard on us for the house. i feel a lil more positive inside even if the outside worlds still on fire lol.
happy tuesday ya'l! taking a break then going for another 3 or 4 k steps. trying to hit 8500 b4 i quit cuz i'll putter around house doing chores rest of day to hit 10 k.. mom says thats cheating. i told her take what u can get this is the deal ive made. she's made her deals lol rofl

That sounds like positive progress with the ma, just n** things in the bud before they full on snag ya later. Grats on the progress with fitness! I'm seeing some results too, putting on muscle and people noticing I can lift heavier things xp I'm doing it like a prisoner, just whever I'm free and bored, if I don't feel like doing it that means I HAVE to. Got like 1 week of normal eating left til I chop off 200-500 cal a day just to suck things in a lil more Glad the lawyer still working as an advocate for you, there's gotta be a resolution it's a whole damn house ffs Steps indoors count wtf why wouldn't they? I used to track my steps in work and did something crazy one day like 30,000 (it was an overnight store re-fit, the worst thing I EVER did). My feet were still sore after that for days, I wish it didn't count whee Gonna be another evening of Diablo on switch for me, moar work work work soon bleugh. Paid soon, gimme gimmeeeeee

So late again damn, went right to a pub quiz after work, was fun though. I slept just over 5 hours, today has been a weird fugue state, got through work but damn everything kind of a slog lately. Grats on the 10k steps! Yeah I've seen those lil walking pads you can get, I don't really have the space for one of them though, our house is so lil. Ngl my caloric deficit has consisted of eating the same meals but throwing more of it away lmao, not the most effective way but it works lol Happy Birthday Rydia! I'm the same I tend to keep my birthdays to myself, indulge in my favourite things, aint a damn thing wrong with that! Hope you have a great day and you get exactly what ya want

Thanks so much aaron for the gifty and the poll! i forgot i mentioned it lmao i was like eek how they know?!?!? dramallama
lol it was a good day. i got my 10 k steps in several chunks and b4 5pm. been taking till nite time lately. i been letting nails rest a month and using cuticle oil and neosporin to soften edges and stuff. i got basecoat/top coat this time cuz i aint been doing that and did em up right with that. its a rly pale lilac with a silver glitter. lighter than i thought but i like it! just nice to have nailpolish on again.
i got goodies first of month from bro and bf in form of island living the sims from bf and goodies from bro like hard drive 4tb lets goo. but bfs folks suprised me with enough of an amazon gift card to pick up the mini treadmill and some sneakers and house shoes. cuz mine are falling apart lol.. im excited!
i've stuck to the 10k every day for like 4 days now. it takes me like an hour and 45 min of walking broken into chunks to do it but im doing it!. moms been chewing on dandelions said her tooth swelling went down from it. w/e works. got dr to call her in antibiotics. she gonna try to get heart cath scheduled b4 taking em so she can see dentist soon after. we all ok for now. uncle in hospital tonite for bad chest pains tho. he's had so many stints and heart surgery in past. hoping they get him patched back up. he aint even 60 yet.
mom trimmed the split ends and took and inch off my hair. feels so much better. ive always had her do it since pandemic lol she's very good at layers. feeling good! had a good bday! just was peaceful. i think there's chocolate cake tonite!
have a lovely evening! thanks again!

It's no problem, hope you liked the gifty! The polish sounds so cute! Yeah I learned a long time ago that a basecoat is absolutely essential. I avoid nail hardners too, I find they are counterproductive because hard nails break when they bend. Better to have healthier nails that can bend and flex all happy without breaking, good shout with the oil. I use sweet almond, my fav 40% because it works rly well, 60% because it just smells rly good lol. Yaay 4tb drive! I wanna upgrade myself, turns out ripping every movie I love over a span of like 80 years takes up space. Might be a lil obsessive but it comes in clutch if the internet goes down whee Grats on sticking to the 10k goal, I've gotten my sit ups to 100 (1 set 50x, 1 set 30x, 1 set 20x), done pull ups til I wanted to scream and pulled a 2 minute plank. That last one made me want to muder someone and stay hyperventiling on the ground for a good few mins after xp Been a good evening so far, watching the new Last of Us with the bf! Hope yours is great too!
