Learning How To Live Life

I turned off my nintendo account. I got the game pass for xbox instead. I think I'm gonna take the rest of the stuff to the used gaming shop. I need the extra space and I can see the tv so much better.
 

Morning. Slept ok last night. I slept on the sofa. Might sleep in my bed tonight. We'll see. I did a lot of deep cleaning yesterday and cleaned up the bedroom and closet and took quite a bit of stuff to the trash trolly. Thursday when I'm off I will start on the deep cleaning and decluttering of the living room.

So I have Fortnite which is free to get and play and I also got Apex Legends. Also free to get and play as well. I don't need a mic or headset for either one. They both have ping and marker systems set up for communication. You can set a ping to show teammates where enemies are, where you are, where loot is located. There's also a wheel style marker that you can use to let teammates know if you need a med kit or weapon or ammo.

Works good for me because some of those people can be so hateful. I think that's why so many don't use the voice chat. The gaming world can be a harsh environment. I just like to go and have a good time. The friends I used to play with have all left facebook and don't play anymore. I used to have a lot of fun with them.

Having some coffee and trying to decide what I want to eat today. I don't feel like cooking cuz I'm so worn out. This kid at work got me talked into getting this one game and said he'd play and then he hasn't shown any interest in playing or even trying to help me figure out what to do. I really need to stop letting people talk me into promised fun. :rolleyes:

It's very cold and windy here today. I won't be doing anything but resting today.

I just can't do it. I miss you guys too much.
I'm dealing with some stuff around the house so I just won't be on as much for a little while. Staying away isn't working for me.

I went into a gaming stream on Twitch tonight and apparently the husband was playing a game I had downloaded and I just wanted to watch the gameplay.

Well the mrs...a younger gal obviously first asked if I was a fake person. Then wanted to know if I was male or female and how old I was.

When I told her I was turning 60 this month she says...how is it your 60? I think you're full of shit. So I told her if she was gonna be rude I didn't need to be there. I don't understand why old people apparently aren't supposed to game in some people's eyes.

So, I went back in and got rid of the games that require chatting to others and cancelled my order for a headset. I will just go back to Fortnite.

If I get killed every 5 min then whatever. I don't have to have a mic or listen to chat even. I can just go in and shoot at people and release my stress without putting up with their toxicity.
I might be able to find some decent people without mics to play with. *Shrugs*

Got a few things coming from Walmart on Sunday. Here lately I am having issues with the solid deoderants. I'm having allergic reactions to them so I'm trying different ones in hopes of finding one that won't bother me.


If I had the money and could afford to lose my job I'd whistle blow so loud it would be heard internationally. I'd have to have a helluva lot of proof. And maybe some witnesses with the peanuts to stand up to the man. LOL!
-‐-----------------------------------

Starting tomorrow I'm gonna look for the dumbest and silliest character skin I can find in Fortnite to buy and just go play some shoot em up.

I prefer Fortnite for one main reason...when the other players die there's no blood. This little robot box in the sky zaps them and all the crap in their inventory drops for us to loot. I've seen 5 year olds that are better shots than a lot of adults. Without cheating.

Have a great Sunday!

Welcome back. 🤗
 
I don't think Apex Legends is the game for me. They start you off as the support person that heals people. I can't even keep track of where my teammates are. LOL

I played some Fortnite. I didn't kill anyone but I did manage to down someone so a teammate could off them. LOL! I had to set my look and aim settings clear to the very slowest to have some modicum of control over my movements and aim. Otherwise I'm all over the place shooting at air. If I keep at it I'll get better. I just like to play. It's fun. Even if I don't win.

I got two cosmetic bundles. One is of a rapper named Lisa:

And the other is of a car:

I managed to get a couple Libman snap on mop heads to replace my yucky one today. I really don't care for the Swiffer wet mop. I might just put a washcloth on it and dust the walls with it.

Doing one last breathing treatment before bed. I have a pair of laceless Skechers coming along with two new elbows for my cpap machine. I have to get the actual Resmed ones. The cheap compatible ones all leak really bad. Like if I have my machine on 14L then 12L will leak out of the elbow. It's pitiful.

I got a couple more skins to play with on Fortnite. I also found out I can play Valorant without voice chat. I kinda like Valorant so might give that a try tomorrow after work.

No I haven't but it doesn't say hypoallergenic either. So idk. I'm gonna try dove for sensitive skin. Dove products have never bothered me in the past. Lume was awful. Made me smell like cat pee.

I find the Dove for sensitive skin works well. Hubby used it for a long time, but he started to have problems with it aggravating his skin. I found one made by Tom's Unscented aluminum free that has been working for him so far. It's not cheap, but he's running out of options for deodorant.

if the dove for sensitive skin doesn't work i'm gonna give that crystal deoderant a try. if i don't find something i may have to just go without and keep em washed up at work i guess. even the secret clinical which is way too expensive didn't work. i was allergic to that too.
 
I slept almost a full 8 hrs. I am thinking of buying a new bed. A twin size one as the full size one is becoming unmanageable. I also want a recliner. I spoke to a customer service agent and she said even though they're not required to move the old furniture out, if I'm ordering it to be delivered and assembled then I could probably ask them and they would disassemble it and move it out for me.

I told her I'm turning 60 and live alone and have no one to help with that part. They have some beds and recliners for around $300 right now. I could put it on the credit card. I wanna get the living room decluttered and cleaned before I do anything. The furniture is 8 yrs old and just needs to be replaced. I might get an end table too. We'll see.

I plan to start playing Valorant tonight after work if I'm not too exhausted. We'll see. It's a shooter but there's some other elements to it that kinda remind me of Paladins. It's kinda neat. Might make a Knorr pasta meal for supper or make one of my Suddenly Salads up. Depends.

I'm hoping 2026 will be a little brighter for me but we'll see. Depends on what the good Lord has in store for me.

I don't work at that hour anyway. But our overnight guy hid in the break room. Eventually it's always a possibility. But ye of little patience won't have any tolerance for being held captive and uncomfortable. I would have to start a fight. :devilish: if you dumb enough to keep me from a bathroom food or coffee you're in for whatever ass whooping I can provide. Lol
 
Marci, not sure what your budget is, but you may want to look at Sleep Number beds. You don't have to flip those. We've had ours for years & dearly love it. I like that I can adjust it to help me sleep.

They guy tried to sell us one with all of the bells & whistles, but we just wanted the simple mattress. We bought the base which was needed to replace our box springs. You don't need special sheets for them or anything else. Just make sure you get the hand control with yours like we did.

My SIL bought one & didn't need a base because her bed is one that has storage drawers under it & it had the solid wood top to support the mattress.
 
morning all.
that dove sensative skin did it's job yesterday surprisingly. will hafta wait a bit to see if it's going to irritate. i hate that they put things in products that are so irritating to a person's skin. for years i used dawn dishsoap as it works best. i can no longer use it. a few yrs ago i began having allergic reactions to it. many many years ago i developed a latex allergy to the work gloves including the gloves with the powder in them. luckily we don't use latex at work. i think they're all nitrile.

i was too pooped to play video games last night. i wanted to but it was busy enough at work that i just ran out of steam. i'm gonna start working on bagging up some of the things in the living room i want to toss the next couple nights to help myself out a little. might make my deep clean easier on thursday. i still haven't managed to get that entire tv box broke down. lol! i might see of my driver wants this thing i have that i can jump start the car with and/or air up my tires. he's been so good about taking to and from work every day. i try to give him gas money when i can.

it feels like it might be a little warmer today. our weather has been in the 50s and 60s which for a kansas winter is not a good thing. i hate to see what this summer is gonna be like.

i worry about the future with climate change and ai and financial atrocities in the world today. i will be grateful if the good Lord allows me to keep food in my belly and clothes on my back and a roof over my head. if things get desperate enough i may have to get rid of the internet in the house and give up my gaming. those will be the first things to go if it comes down to it. i can get my streaming apps on the phone and watch tv that way.

i will likely switch to visible and possibly mint because the two together would be either less or about the same as what i pay verizon now. then i could have an extra phone in case one breaks down. i have been wanting to get an extra phone just in case.
 
Last night I deleted my FB account. Ever since they started using Meta I'd had nothing but problems. FB has turned into such an AI circus that I just am not that interested in it anymore. But the last straw has been that in the last few days when I have wanted to log in it has either blocked me or it keeps saying i'm signing in on a device it doesn't recognize or a location it doesn't recognize. yesterday it blocked me twice saying i was logging in from mcconnell airforce base. said it was suspicious.

i tried the help center but that's all ai and the instructions given to me were basically as such...go back to where the problem was and shake your phone. (what in the actual hell kind of instruction is that? lol) then it said it needed a screenshot and i don't know what all else but i didn't feel like jumping through hoops anymore so i deleted it.
