1. When did you recently have the feeling, "Life is good." Most recently it was on vacation.

2. Which do you need more, routine or spontaneity? I need both in equal parts, lol.

3. Do you have a difficult or annoying neighbor? No, we had plenty in Iowa though.

4. What do you want to change about yourself? I'm pretty damn okay with me, but I wish I could worry a little less.

5. What do you like best about where you live? The mountains. Oh how I love them, that and the fact that winters aren't quite as nasty as the Midwest, lol.

Vacation is always a good time.

I wish you could have less pain.

You sound like TBG and Reno. He loved the Sierras!

Thanks, I wish that too.

Oh, the mountains are definitely my happy place. I always feel a sense of awe whenever I see them or drive in them.

1. Been a few days. Maybe last week some time.

2. Both. I need a lot of routine, but get very antsy if there is no spontaneity.

3. Oh, lord yes. Most recent event was coming onto our property, stalked and then confronted our renter who was bad there hunting- perfectly legally- and then pointed his high caliber rifle at her while threatening her (no, the sheriff doesn't want anything to do with the situation)

4. My health, both mental and physical.

5. The library. The lake on the few times I even see it. The mountains and trees.

1. It's been a little while, sadly. :(

2. My life is pretty routine, so I guess I will say Spontaneity. :o

3. Not really sure how I would describe a couple of them. lol.......

4. Health, financial stability. :(

5. It's a small town.
Hugs, Jon

I think most of us could use some health and financial stability, too.

1-I tend to think this alot when I'm at the lake where my family lives during the summer days.

2-Definitely routine. My anxiety/depression gets horrible, including my sleep cycle if I don't have consistent routine to schedule around.

3-I'm very grateful that all my neighbors are respectful, thoughtful and courteous people!

4-Lose weight, have the skills to get the job I want and motivate myself to travel more.

5-It's reasonably quiet, in the same region where I grew up and not far from my parents and immediate family and close to everything that is essential.

Living on a lake must be nice in the summer. I miss such things.

Can you take some classes to train yourself for the job?

I did, back in 2017-2019 so I could start an internship through my local college. But, COVID happened and when it was getting back to normal, the internship option fell through so I was offered to apply for a workforce education thing where the college would place me in a job while taking some classes, but my application was rejected because it was decided that I wasn't "poor" enough and if I signed up for SNAP or something they would help me get in. I declined and am thinking of trying a career coach again.
