    A reversal of the cuts my health insurance is making and further to have all of my healthcare paid for by the insurance I pay a ton of money to have. Especially hurts since the insurance company is my employer, or at least I used to. Now they have the same parent company or whatever they call it these days.

    I want to have children, but cannot afford them for an undetermined amount of time. Fingers crossed that we’ll have enough money someday!

      3 kids here 12 and under. If you are mentally and emotionally ready for kids just do it. That’s the big secret. You will never be ready financially. Kids adapt and will be happy so long as you are stable and can provide the most important necessities like love, a roof and food.

        If I had serious financial stress I cannot imagine also having kid stress. What if one needs serious medical attention or has special education needs?

        I dunno. This seems reckless.

          Granted in America yes those are concerns we don’t have to the same degree in Canada but all things considered having a kid is reckless anyways. You either adapt and make it work or you don’t.

    I have all that I can reasonably want that I could reasonably be given, so I’m making a gift instead, I’m off donating blood in half an hour, hopefully someone will appreciate it 😋

    The motherboard in my computer is basically dead. Every morning I must perform voodoo to get just one more post.

    But my computer is fairly old now and I can’t justify just replacing the board for more money than upgrading the platform. 😔

      I hope to have a whole new life eventually because reincarnation is my favorite concept of an afterlife, but no hurry on that.
