Learning How To Live Life

Feeling a little better today. They had only breaded meat so I'm having salad with strawberries and grilled chicken with fat free gluten free California French dressing, corn chips instead of croutons.

Found a kind bar that's gluten free and a soda. Since starting this diet on Wednesday my scalp itch and the flaking have settled down.

Having a crappy work day so far but oh well.
 
Taking a break. Took my pills. 💊 probably won't get everything done tonight. We have a psych patient that has gotten himself so worked up he's making himself sick. I tried to say something comforting. I felt bad for him.

Psych problems on top life these days would hafta be rough.
 
Morning. Actually slept til noon today. Arm was itchy and little last night and a tad this morning but, doing a little better.

Still working on finding a deoderant that doesn't bother me. I have 2 more choices. One is very expensive and the other may last over a year? It's this brand called Crystal. Sounds suspicious.

Anyway, I got my tent built. I like the way it came out. I'll try to post pics in my gaming album after work tonight. Still tired & sore from last night.

So the mop wringer i ordered a while back for laundry is helping save my hands from total misery and the clothes are air drying faster. So that's paid off so far.

Monday I will sit down and have a looksie at the ring doorbell site to read all the information on getting it installed and set up. If it's nothing too difficult maybe I can do it Monday. Will see.

Have a good day.
 
Since I am loath to start a new thread I am posting this here. There was discussion on another thread about profile privacy. More info as to why it's important to safeguard your info.

Scammers on social media look for vulnerable, trusting, or lonely individuals, specifically targeting those who share too much personal information publicly.

They seek out users with easily exploitable profiles to steal money via investment/romance scams, harvest personal data for identity theft, or infect devices with malware through phishing links, often using fake or cloned profiles.

Key traits and information scammers look for include:
  • Publicly Shared Personal Information: They monitor profiles for details like birthdays, location, job title, family members, or pet names to guess passwords or answer security questions.

  • Emotional Vulnerability: Scammers look for signs of loneliness, sadness, or desperation, often targeting people looking for romance, companionship, or quick financial relief.

  • Naïveté and Trust: They target individuals who may be less familiar with online safety, such as the elderly or, conversely, overly trusting users who engage with strangers.

  • Lack of Digital Hygiene: Users with public profiles, many "friends" they don't actually know, or who click on suspicious links (quizzes, "win a free gift" posts) are prime targets.

  • High Engagement/High-Value Targets: They look for people actively posting, searching for work (to scam with fake jobs), or those who appear to have disposable income for investment fraud.
 
They also won't hesitate to use your real pics for identity theft. They can turn someone into an AI character using their image, credentials and even their voice to make it look like they are real. We learned about this at work.

So I would never make someone feel bad for being discreet on a chat forum.

Technology has made this world a very unsafe place at times.

*edited for this...
Why do you think some of the new members go through everyone's profiles and leave the same message on only certain ones?
 
Wonder how many ppl I ticked off today?

I got to work, was in an ok mood til someone got rude with me when I got off the elevator. Ticked me off and I turned straight around and said something. Nothing hateful. Just letting them know i heard it.

Some days I just wanna say the hell with it and go back to not talking to anyone and being a total b***h. It wears me out being nice to ppl who are so hateful.
 
Those 2 posts above, are so extremely informative. Thank you for posting them. Here or anywhere. It's important to learn as much as we can about it. I myself, want to , anyway. And that's excellent info , about profiles and online security, and lack of.

That's great that the mop wringer makes such a difference with the laundry!

I hope that door bell item, will not be too confusing.

On a personal note, other people who are rude and nasty, are so hard to tolerate, I also have found,
But keep on being yourself, the self you want to be Marci.🙂
 
I will hafta see what the installation instructions for the Ring doorbell say. I may hafta get a drill set to get the bracket screwed in. I think it may be wider than the door frame which has me concerned. Hopefully I can make it work. If not, my only alternative is too put it on the inside door so it can look out of the screen door. Not really a great spot. Not sure if I can figure out the little tool to pop the doorbell out of the bracket to charge it and stuff. This will be challenging.

I cannot wait to get this day over with. I got to bed a little late cuz I was doing other things. I do feel as though I slept good though but, still tired. I didn't do any gaming last night.

I don't know why but the Dillons website here has slowed down so much that trying to order groceries on it is almost unbearable. I was however able to get a new Dillons Plus card but it's digital. I linked it to my DoorDash acct and went ahead and put myself back on the DashPass so it won't cost me as much. I will hafta shop at both Walmart and Dillons on grocery day. What pains me is I can't afford to tip everyone so they will just hafta do without. I can't afford to be throwing money at everyone. I hafta watch my finances.

I wish I could afford to tip. But I'm on a pretty fixed income. I have yet to toast any gf bread to see how it toasts up. One of the gals I sit with at dinner at work that's a telesitter is having trigger finger surgery on Monday. Hopefully it goes well for her. I'm gonna try to text her a get well soon gif when I get up tomorrow.

I gotta get my trash out and untie the trolly for the guys tomorrow. Usually every spring I tie the trolly back up to the porch with an enclosed chain with two loops on the end and a u-hook that screws them together. Keeps it from blowing down the street during our wild KS storms.

Next weekend I gotta get on this kitchen clean up. The carpet beetles are trying to turn the back of the oven into a love shack. LOL! I done vacuumed and dusted their other hook up spots. They had a thrupple goin on last night. I put an end to it though. 👇:ROFLMAO:

Have a great day friends!
 
All this past week has been vomit central in the unit. 🤢
Idk wth everyone has but yuck!

Bout dinner time. Looks like I'll be eating turkey and veggies if they have any left.

Usually the salad is OK but sometimes they leave it out brown and I make them get me fresh cuz the brown stuff makes me sick.

I had a neighbour from upstairs who often started to moan when I stepped in the elevator. She'd then berate me cause my kids were only allowed to sing or play the flute and for the rest be quiet (we were always outside and almost never home).

I always stayed friendly and kept greeting her. Then a guy on a forum said that his neighbours let their dog bark day in day out and he asked them if he should take him out when they were working and they barked at him, so he moved and found another house. I was like: Hey antisocials have half the world. I can do that too. So the next time I was locked up with her I said nothing and put up my resting b face. She said nothing. LOL and later she said sorry.

Me and this one old gal that used to live next door had a confrontation at 7 am. I'm in no mood to be berated at that hour. Her grandkid spent 9 hrs during an entire weekend running back and forth through the apt.

I didn't take it well and I acted out because I was furious. She came out the next morning and started in on me. There were insults and swearing and no joke, if she had come off the porch at me we'd have been crawling in the yard cuz I'd had it with her at that point.

I don't normally behave that way. But under enough stress I get extremely feisty. To put it mildly. LOL
 
I'm ready to go home. Got a new badge clip that has a goose on a juice box saying I'm full of silly juice. On the side of the box it says with added silly billy. 🤣
 
just got my new fans out finally. they sat in the living room for a long time unopened. now that spring is here and people are noisy and birds are noisy i need to get them out. they are nice. instead of those legs you gotta snap on and one never quite fits, they have the legs already attached and you just turn them. it's nice. and they're loud. hallelujah!

it is 8:30 in the morning and someone is already using a chain saw in the neighborhood. :rolleyes:
 
i finally went back to bed and slept til just after 1 pm. headache is gone. it finally got hot outside. the heat was still coming on in here for the longest time. lol! I haven't eaten yet so i'm gonna bake up a gluten free pizza and watch the newest episode of watson and marshals. cya later.

well, gluten free pizza leaves much to be desired. it will take getting used to.

I wonder if there's some way to sorta dress it up,
to give it more flavor by adding a topping you'd like......🤔


Or perhaps,something just to make it appear better,
and thereby, trick the mind.
