I'm on Slowly, too! I have one penpal that I've been writing to for several years now!

From the sounds of it, the company's entire accounting system is done in a very old version of Excel. One Excel spreadsheet. Which is a very bad idea for so many reasons. If it's not backed up and gets deleted or corrupted.... everything is gone. Not to mention that there's so many better ways to do your main accounting than Excel. Excel has it's uses, just not....that.

If you want something to replace soda and don't want artificial sweeteners, flavored carbonated water can scratch that itch. There's some that are low sugar and some that are no sugar. They have some really interesting flavors, too. La Croix is not a great brand, in my opinion.

Thank you for a serious answer. I would love it if a man did this for me after I expressed dislike about my appearance.

I'm surprised I've made it this far. The only reason I have is because of my dogs. I guess I'll just keep getting them to keep me here. As one approaches old age, I'll get another. Assuming the loss of the old one doesn't do it.

You just blew my mind. Thank you for that. Also indirectly introduced me to a way to learn a new word a day.

Saving your response because I really want to read these. I love it when I come across a post like this. Teach me all the things I didn't know that I need to know! Healing together is the only way that we can move forward in a way that is actually progressive. Thank you for sharing.

What have you done? Anymore recommendations? This might become a new obsession.😂

I hate Walmart, but have to shop there because it's the only grocery store within reasonable distance of my house. Hopefully I won't live here much longer.

I'm also in Colorado and unaffiliated. I ended up voting for Gabriel something on the democratic ballot. I'm probably more leftist than you are. I kinda wish that I had thought of what the other commenter said about voting for a Republican that's not Trump.

If you go the route of voting for a Republican that's not Trump, research the candidates and choose the lesser evil. Most of them should have websites for their campaigns. If they don't have one, don't vote for that person. They probably aren't serious about it.

Your confidence is admirable. Keep being awesome.

I am so sorry. I've got two right now. One will be 15 in December and the other just turned three. The overlap is on purpose. In hopes that I'll be too attached to the puppy to do it when I let my old boy go. I do want to heal from the trauma, but most times, it doesn't seem possible.

Yesterday I started the series of quality of life conversations with my vet for my oldest dog. He'll be 15 next month. It's always an eventuality, but I am devastated. I knew that it was going to happen at this appointment, but that doesn't change how hard it was and how hard it has been since the appointment. I'm not doing well.

Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates.

It's basically a letter from a father to his son about all the concerns an African American person has regarding their children's safety. That is a very poor explanation of this book. It's one of the few books I have read that has shaken me to my soul. I have been forever changed by this book. As a white person, it opened my eyes to things I never thought about. It is a captivating and moving read, but you will not view the world the same way ever again.

I am so upset. There are no words. But there was no other community.

XD

That was Arkansas.

Oh man, I wish I had thought of this.

Honestly, you're not wrong. I just want to have hope in humanity. 😭

Some of the other name brands are expensive, too, but so much better than La Croix.

I don't think I've tried those brands, but I will have to.
