Favorite Comfort

Unfortunately it's sweets. I had a rough year 2018 with hubby's health, his grandma's death, us moving, etc. and put on the pounds I had recently lost in 2017.

I also kind of go FULL on introvert and just want to watch movies/TV and listen to music and scrap.

I totally understand, Kiana! I'm right there with you :wub:
Some days are just too peopley outside and I don't want to go out there!

oooh peanut M&M's! or peanut butter M&M's!!
After a stressful day I like to just sit on the couch and watch something on Netflix or Prime. While eating something sweet. Depends on what I have on hand.
 
If I've had a particularly rough time job hunting wise which happens every three months or so when I've been rejected for a whole string of jobs in a short period (I think the record was 5 rejections straight off the bat with no interviews in two days at one point) and I start questioning what I've done "wrong" etc, after a good cry with family who 100% support me, my pure escape where no one can find me for a couple hours is lunch out and a movie (I might see two or three a year max so its a real treat) - now I know I could go out with my best friend but she doesn't totally understand so I find just pure escapism for a bit is best.

If its just a blah day for no particular reason - unhealthy snacks, youtube or a reality tv series and naps usually get me through

I'm sorry you've had such a hard time with job hunting, Jennifer! What field are you looking in? I really hope you're able to find something you love really soon!! :wub:

I have a degree in disability studies but I’d say probably 75% of the jobs are home and personal care support worker positions which I don’t want to do and to be honest can’t really manage so it’s tough, then there’s the general competition side of applying for jobs - it’s hard only have volunteer experience when your competitors have 10+ years experience in the field

That sounds challenging.
I really hope you find a position that you love!!
 
I only work night shifts and since Rich retired he does most of the dad stuff with Sarah.. school pickups, homework, dinners, etc. I usually get up around time she gets home from school and help out with stuff. Sometimes though I stay extra long in bed and just play on my phone and ignore the commotion going on in the rest of the house... just have some "me" time. It's a guilty pleasure. :)
