My husband makes 500k-750k. We own our house outright. We have no debt. My kids college funds are done. I still work. I have never had any desire not to, though I have worked from home for the entirety of my kids lives.
I don’t like early childcare. It’s very tedious, isolating, frustrating, boring. I simply have no desire to do it for more than 6 hours a day. After every weekend, I am glad Monday is coming because I don’t have to mind small kids for the entire day.
I would quit my job to homeschool my children age 5+, but I do not want to deal with them all day every day when they are 4 and under.
My wedding weekend was one of the most beautiful days of my life. But the amount of people pleasing I had to endure in the year leading up to it quite literally caused me to have the worst mental breakdown of my life. I’m happy that the #peoplepleaser in me is now deceased

@ppppp1245688 It’s so cruel! It’s not like the girl expected something extravagant and the mom offered to help with the cost. A lot of people advocating using birthdays to teach kids to expect less or are too focused on adults’ feelings. This can lead to lifelong problems of self esteem
Micro aggression happen in every medical specialty! So I’m in the mailroom where we pick up our cases, a new attending walks in. I introduce myself as a PGY-1 and her eyes get so wide. She tells me she thought I was a tech there to deliver her case. Lmao
i feel like it should be socially acceptable to describe long periods of poor mental health as “I was sick” when people ask why you “wasted” months or years of your life
People give what they carry inside. Kind people include. Mature people communicate. Healed people set boundaries. Secure people celebrate others. The way people treat you is often a reflection of what lives within them, not a measure of your worth.
