So last week's stuff with Arbor is now in a better place. I basically told him he doesnt get a say in what I do with Jurian outside of safer sex practices. We've had a lot, and I mean a lot of conversations. And although I have a bit of experience in solo poly it's quite a bit different with a...

Well this week has been interesting. I had a fantastic time with...new interest who I shall name Jurian. I dont know what to say about this because right now I thought things were going ok, but Arbor is struggling and I need to figure out if its possible to save the relationship while seeing...

I had the best date night. Bring on the NRE! ....for the first time in YEARS, I had sex with someone while in a mostly stable NP ship. With the consent of my NP. I have no words. I am now poly saturated for the time being. No plans to meet anyone else. I'm very happy. No name yet...but I'll...

So life continues on! I got settled renter situation, thats good. I got accepted at a new job through a temp agency and its a guaranteed 40 hrs per week which I LOVE. I'm so thrilled. I'm learning it quickly, and they are excited to have me on-board. I'm hoping i'll be permanent within month two...

Well after denial, anger, came depression. I ruminated about something really important last night. I am such a pushover to what the greater good wants. And I'm so fucking sick of it. I told Arbor I'm poly, as an identity not just a choice, whether I was single or with others or anything else...

I got a new job on the opposite side of town...thinking of renting a place for mon-fridays and partially moving out - like rent a small room near the office for the 2 weeks I go in, then I have a place to work "from home", and not bring work home. I love the idea of hybrid remote work, but I...

UGH found another bank account opened unauthorized...BUT FOR MY CHILD WHEN SHE WAS 4 YEARS OLD!....wasn't me. I was in uk then. I found it cleaning out the shed of my mothers things....what a nightmare. I think I may have sorted it but I called up my oldest and explained and they were devastated...

Thanks Evie! I'm also so excited for you too :D

Mid February- Pumpkin is moving out, but I can't be sad for her because she found a great little place that will be perfect for her, She said she just needed her own space and was ready. It wasn't without its little dramas from her, but she's always been a little over dramatic and I'm fine with...

So, it's now January! Arbor and I are on an upswing. Pee test came back negative for weed....he's successfully clean and got an app, and coach to go through the process...I suggested AA but he's not into that scene and cant see the overlap for weed thought I'm sure there's separate groups...

Well, After vacillating back and forth, I decided to stay with Arbor - for now- and we are in separate rooms now. Or more accurately he's on the couch until March. He has until then to get a start on sobriety (weed) and on mental health stuff. I get he has anxiety, but I've done nothing but love...

Holy crap that's like night and day different. It even makes the floor look different.

That's so reasonable! I have a manufactured home with 2b room, 1 bath, and a small casita (2bed 1 bath) that I rent out. It's about the same size as Evie's. My place because of location is about 200k, with an acre of land. But if I were on the mountain it'd be double that so I feel that. Your...

Oh I forgot to cite my quotes / paraphrashing above. Those stages of leaving are NOT MINE. They came from a youtube podcast called the Six stages of change of leaving a toxic relationship by Pi and Dr. Glenn

Thinking back to my toxic relationships: Pre-contemplation (Not ready to leave): Values the relationship toxicity more than leaving it. Over valuing the relationship instead of looking at the relationship as a whole. “I'm not worth of finding someone else” etc, or self belief of finding...

I saw your post about diabetes, are you diagnosed with 1 or 2? Definitely get a specialist for it! I have a specialist and she recommended Keto diet, and my carbs are much lower than yours, like aroun 60-100g a day, and I try to keep to around 20g of sugar a day. Everything else is fake sugar...

I temporarily lost access to my account last year with the big change over to new forums + me forgetting my password and needing resetting + my facebook original email I used here being hacked! So much has happened but I'll just put it down in bulletin points: Me and Arbor are still together...

Hey Evie, I'm so glad to hear things are on the up and up with work! That's amazing. :) Good luck with all your interviews and applications coming up!! I'm really sorry to hear about things with puck still being stuck, but I'm glad he's working through things. That's awesome.

Merry xmas everyone! My fafsa letter came through email for approval for applying for new funding! I'm SO EXCITED! I might be starting school as soon as January the 9th!!! Arbor and I had a fabulous xmas if quiet. I spoke to my children online/phone, and we also stopped by the...
