Because it is almost Friday and everyone deserves to laugh. I found this on my parent feed and thought I would share.

I have suffered from migraines all my life. This was recommended to me from a customer. I had one of my most violent migraines a week or so ago with vomitting and beyond pain. I tried all my normal s**t and nothing worked. I remembered that a customer gave me this and I had it in the car. I went out and got it. Took it and about 15 minutes later my migrain was down by 50-75%. About 30 more minutes later it was down by 90%. I did have to take a second packet the next day to finish off the migraine, but since then I have taken it during the onset of the migraine and it has worked like a charm. Hope this helps others. (FYI: it does have aspirin in it as well as caffeine...so if you can't have either or both...Do Not Try)

This is from the book and I think some people out there might need to hear it:

“You’re enough. You know that? Everything you are right now… is enough.”
She glances up toward me, tears still in her vision. “How do you know that? You barely know me.”
I tuck a strand of stray hair behind her ear. “I don’t think a woman who’s crying and worrying about whether she’s enough has the capacity to be less than everything. I’m sorry anyone ever made you feel otherwise.”

PSA: This number:+19014221879 is trying to scam rideshare drivers out of their accounts. They have called me twice in 2 days. They are out of New York (at least that is where their phone is located).

They start off as a ride (mine had a start and finish location that was the same, don't know if that is their norm tho). They send a message through the ride to call them and then they say that they are Lyft and they interrupted the ride and will need you to pull over safely to speak about a complaint that was sent in about you that the driver or car didn't match the image on the app.

They ask benign questions to grab you ("have you loaned out your vehicle to anyone recently" or " does anyone else have access to drive your car such as a family member or close friend") and then they get aggressive and say you won't be able to drive till they get the information they need to clear you of this issue; that your account will be placed on hold till then. **To someone that needs to feed their family or pay a bill immediately...having your rideshare driver account placed on hold could be traumatic enough to give out info you normally wouldn't.**

You might want to warn other drivers (family members/friends) of this phone number since they called me twice in 2 days. I've since blocked the number.

"I guess that’s what adulting really is—living your best life in spite of all the apologies we never hear.”

I read this in a book recently. It's very true.

In all honesty that is what I've been doing. I hope everyone is well an has had a blessed week. In a nutshell...I removed myself from social media for a few months. For all the good I find here I also get dragged into my friends' drama because we all have it (even me) and we all have a need to be heard. Normally, not an issue for me because everyone bends my ear and I help them as best I can...that is just my nature...but I had some stuff going on at home with me and my medical and my hubby's as well...and, well...I decided I needed to pick my battles. I figured bowing out for a bit was the best. Anyhoo, I hope everyone is well and living their best life, and if you aren't...it's ok to do what I did or a mini version or maybe take a weekend for yourself and just read a book or go to the movies alone. People are like, "but Jenn, we just got out of the whole Covid thing not that long ago! Why would you want to be alone? We just did THAT for like two years." Were we really alone...think about it...MS Teams, Skype, Zoom, Facetiming etc...we just weren't in the same room with people. We were still in each other's business though. Here is proof: At Walmart my husband went to get a bottle of alcohol while I went thru Self Check-Out. He brought it over to me to be rung up. A woman waiting made a point to make a scene that it should go thru the cashier in the check-out by the alcohol. (Now, an FYI...they used to require that but haven't in years.) I told my husband to ignore her and let it go, but think about it....Pre-Covid, she wouldn't have said a word to us and Post-Covid she feels she can get in my business without a care in the world. We were in each other's business just not each other's faces....now...the translation, well sucks. LOL.
Bright Blessings Everyone!

I only had to do it once on my cell...it's a STYLO 6. Remember to take off Airplane Mode when you are done. I think this is like a "temp fix" till they send out a fix thru the system in the form of an update. Why do I say that? Because my hubby spoke to T-Mobile on the 24th and it wasn't fixed yet by LG according to them and all of us still were getting the stupid error message. I was getting it till like 7pm when I did this. I have not turned off my cell or done any updates or anything like that. I don't know if any of that will reverse what is below so no shooting the messenger. Bright Blessings Everyone!

PSA: If you are seeing this error message it should be fixed sometime tonight. It is not limited to LG cellphones, but it might be limited to T-Mobile (not sure). They are working on it like nuts. Oh, and it might eat a bit more of your battery than normal due to the pop-ups that happen every five seconds. Bright Blessings!

I thought this would give everyone a laugh (lord knows we could use a laugh...and I've been pseudo-sick for 2 weeks...my asthma and allergies hit me like the mak truck and I couldn't work!...would you want someone coughing around you like a harp seal with Covid being a thing...yeah, I don't think so. So, tho I had nothing "catchy", I stayed home and took a financial hit so others would have peace of mind...yeah, paragon of virtue here. 🙄). 🤦

An anime on Netflix that I have enjoyed in the past but never have watched fully is leaving their service so I binged it and the end had and amazing quote. It proves that sometimes the Divine throws stuff at you in unlikely ways...

"There's no such thing as a painless lesson; they just don't exist. Sacrifices are necessary. You can't gain anything without losing something first.

Although, if you can endure that pain and walk away from it. You'll find you now have a heart strong enough to overcome any obstacle.

Yeah, a heart made fullmetal."

~Edward Elric, The FullMetal Alchemist

Sometimes the stuff you lose make way for better things to enter. And sometimes the people that have learned the most lessons in life have the strongest hearts, tho people think that life kicks those people in the teeth often...LOL, and it does. Because life is filled with highs and lows and for some people it really blows, but how we deal with those moments is the true test of our heart. They say "When life give you lemons make lemonade". Well, I say, when life gives you lemons go to the grocery store and buy oranges and make orange juice instead, because that is what the grocery store is there for. Y'all know what I mean. It's like potatoes. There are hundreds of things you can make with potatoes...not just mashed potatoes. You can even go to your cabinet or refrigerator and maybe pick a different veggie. That is why we are given lessons in life, so we learn and grow and add more tools to that "toolbox". You know the one...if all you have is a hammer every problem is a nail? Lessons get us more tools. Lessons in the end give us Blessings...though we might not realize it at the time.

Bright Blessings to Everyone for the remainder of this year and entering the New Year! If you are partying on New Year's Eve please have/be a Designated Driver or use Rideshare services and start the new year off by being safe.
