As a Democrat, it's Manchin's job to explain to

West Virginians the benefits Biden's relief plans will bring to them. Manchin is really worrying me.

Counting down to fmla. Scared

on June 1st, I'm going to request, with my doctor's help, FMLA. My job is making me miserable and stressed. I'm a supervisor and I'm worried ( I tend to take too much on myself and my SO tells me to worry about myself. I'm worried about my supervisee. However, my SO says that if I had serious non-mental health condition like cancer, I'd have. To take time off, too. And mental health is as serious as physical).

In no way am I saying I consider myself irreplaceable. I just worry about everything and have a very hard time having normal mentation about things. I have moments of fugue my doctor calls disassociation from time to time from anxiety.

So, this will be my third fmla. I'm scared to ask for third time. But I just have to gird my loins and do it. I hope to have some income with STD insurance, then employer-paid LTD insurance.

Taking this dive scares me sometimes. I'm conflicted, I'm worried. I feel like a loser sometimes. I get angry that I suffer from these illnesses. I'm mad at my employer for causing me ptsd That's another post. I'm scared of the unknown. Loss of income. Going to work.

Scared of everything.

Thanks for letting me vent.

I know I shouldn't care

but when I watch Joe live on FB, and I see the horrible comments right-wingers make in thecomments' section piss me off! Joe is probably all the stands between us and deadly climate change in these waning years of irreversible damage. There are so many clueless right-wingers in this country. They're nuts.

Once Upon a Time ... In Hollywood

I'm obsessed with this movie. Anyone else have opinions, thoughts etc on it? I was a small kid in 1969, and a true crime aficionado

I've gotta stop being afraid

fear stalks me. I'm worried I'll give myself a heart attack. I'm going to ask for FMLA at the start of June. I'm scared to ask, though I've done so before. Fear, fear, fear.

I hope everyone is doing okay!

Monsters and Mysteries in America

it's a marathon today on Destination America Channel. I love this corny show. The re-enactments are a bit cheesy, and I'm a skeptic, but I really enjoy these paranormal tales. I love a rainy day off watching a marathon!
