You’ve got over a year, trust me, you’ve got this
WoT is a real pay to win. I’ve only spent €20 on it, but that’s because I went to rehab a week after I downloaded it.
I haven’t gamed for 219 days now I think. Life is a lot better now. I have a job now, I mountainbike, I make crossword puzzles, I sport, I have a lot of Lego’s and a few more hobbies. I also spent a lot of time on here.
That’s a really cool picture. Fun fact about Jackdaws they choose one partner early in life and stick to that one forever.
I wish you happy day
Let’s agree to disagree, this conversation is a bit triggering to me
Godmorning, day 41.
Tonight me and my 10 y/o are going by train to my aunties, because of my cousins first communion tomorrow. Yes I know I’ve been nagging about it, thing is we’re gypsies all family gatherings is a big deal.
Like now for example, my siblings refuses to come because it was a big fuzz about everything when my grandmother (The family puriday, similar to godfather or the head of the family, but in our culture that’ll be a woman) it was a hard hit on everyone but especially for my father and my auntie. My siblings felt like my auntie treated them and Pa badly and that she wanted to be in charge about everything,and favored her own kids during the process. Thing is that my cousins grandma on their fathers side passed away just three days after my grandmother. So my cousins and theirs family lost both their grandmothers in less than a week.
My daughter stayed with them to help my cousins through the process because my other cousin have some neruropsychiatrich issues and totally lost it, so my aunt had to handle that too at the same time.
I do understand my siblings, but I think they as grown ass people should have been able to see and understand my aunt too in that process. I do, but they can’t see longer than into themselves. And are still mad a year later. Fast forward to my cousins first communion tomorrow. And the Coronavirus situation.
My cousin also turned 15 like two months ago, her brother 13 and their father 65. They had a huge party planned at the beach, and my cousin is a perfectionist and had planned it for months. Unfortunately they had to cancel it all because of the Coronavirus.
She’s also having trouble in school she’s a top student a really smart girl, but she’s adopted from China. And in her old school she got badly bullied for it. They moved and changed school, things got a little better. But they moved to a city where it’s mostly fortunate families living by the beach. And once again, she’s adopted into a gypsy family so she didn’t got many friends in the new school either, because it’s mostly Swedes there.
So she really looked forward to the celebration that got canceled.
It was uncertain if there would be a communion at all for a very long time. And when the decision of having it finally came from church, the date landed on tomorrow. Which would have been my grandmothers birthday if she’d still be alive. In my and my cousins eyes a really honorable day to have something like that. And a natural way to have our grandmother present.
My siblings once again gets more upset and thinks that my aunt and cousin is stealing all attention and isn’t honoring grandma at all. None of that is my cousins fault and I was the first one to tell my aunt that we’re really looking forward to be a part of it. And that they shouldn’t care to much about my siblings that in my opinion are acting like complete jerks against family. The sister I’m closest to is at least going to pick me and the 10 y/o up at the railway station when we get back on Sunday, because my husbands night shift have been moved from Monday to Sunday, which will more than double the pay for one nights work. So there’s no way he’s not going.
There’s a lot more to it but It’ll take eons to tell.
Anyway except from me and my 10 y/o my soon to be 18 y/o will be there, because she and my cousin are like best friends. And my parents, my aunt owns a huge beach house, and a nice apartment by the beach. Me and my 10 y/o are staying in the apartment with my parents.
Except for us there’s 25 other people that counts to family. Imagine my big fat greek wedding, switch the Greeks to gypsies and you’ve got a pretty clear picture on how things are working here.
It’s a little bit worrying, my aunt doesn’t drink, neither does my father. But my Ma is, heavily and usually a heck of a lot of wine. But if it gets to bad, and the cravings get hard I’m planning on just going over to my aunts house instead.
And I should be packing, instead I’m sitting here telling you stories and having Iced coffee. It’s going to rain so I’m not sure what to pack either, I was so tuned in on swimming in the salty ocean, but that’ll probably not going to happen.
Also before you ask, nope Sweden doesn’t require us to wear a mask, they’ve been telling us not too like the entire pandemic, and just keep a distance, washing our hands and etc. And the public transportation restrictions are getting lifted with adjustments. So we’re going by train today, and we’re staying about 1,5 hours away from our house, in the same province.
Sorry for another really long post, but things kinda never seem to be nice and calm over here and I have to vent somewhere.
I’ll try to do some packing now. Wishing y’all an amazing day, and a wonderful weekend

I think it’s good that our government wants to lessen the nitrogen polution, but they have a very wrong approach. They attack the industry that earns 50% of our export
Well today is 5 months, almost half a year sober. It’s gone by pretty quick and still doesn’t seem real. I’m having the hardest time getting rid of Facebook, i keep feeling I am going to miss connection with ppl, I like sharing my sober journey on FB too but at the same time im starting to head toward I don’t want ppl to know my moves anymore. I feel if I get rid of it then I really never see anyone, I like to keep it for the market place as well, I’m part of a running / hiking/ biking group. And my mind keeps saying well what if someone wants to hang out, they won’t be able to get ahold of you. But my conscious wants me to get rid of it, bc I know that won’t happen, it hasn’t happened in idk how long. It also did use to be my gate to hookups, even tho I’m not looking for that, part of my mind still is. I’m working towards it tho, happy Friday
Started off my day watching the sunrise on another gloriously sober day. A soft warm breeze and the gentle lapping of tiny waves bumping against the beach. Life is very good sometimes. I hope everyone is doing well and I wish you the very best today you can have.
That is just a pic I got off the internet, mine was just the best I could do living in Japan.
Was it good?
It totally hit the spot!
Getting rid of facebook is a great idea. After I deleted my account I felt so much better. I no longer had to see people who had better lives than I had and I didn’t feel forced to watch on there constantly.
Congratulations, you’re truly amazing. Good job Girl, you Rock!
How do you know they had better life’s than you had?
That’s the trap of Faceache isn’t it.
We feed into our anxiety that other people have better life’s than us because we see pictures of them seemingly always happy.
It’s all a show.
