@MegNev It gets so much better. I feel like a radically different person than I was three years ago. I’ve just recently come down off the high of getting to reinvent myself, and am settling into the new me. My daughter is a whole new person as well. Best decision i could have made.

@dadmann_walking I did this when I had covid … and that show was True Blood. I was so sick of it after a few days 🤣

Read this thread all the way to the end. Not all of it is me, but a lot is. And a lot is my kid, and kids that I’ve worked with.
