Wishing you a Happy Valentines Day to all of you fine ladies of the Chit-Chat forum!
We love you all!...

Thank you Jim. Happy Valentines Day to you too.
Wow, guys. I'm getting so nervous. I've been self employed since 2013 and it's worked out since I had to take care of my mom full time from 2013 to 2015 while she was on a feeding tube, and then my dad when he got ill in 2016. But he got laid off and while they both need me as home care, I don't get paid. And my computer/graphics business has really slowed down. When T struck I had planned on going back to work in 2017, but I put that on hold cause I was going out of my mind with T.
So I've half-heartedly been applying to jobs to get something part time. I got an interview and I'm so nervous. It will be helping special needs students. Which I have done in the past, but I feel super nervous about now.
T has really altered how I think. I snap easier and my amazing patience has been totally destroyed. Not to mention my concentration! I'm really afraid if I can handle it or not. But I keep thinking that working might help.

Oh my gosh! These are adorable, Emma!I've been busy.
We all need therapy for sure...hahaha
Hey Shera,
Give it a shot. You'll never know until you try it. Good luck with the interview!
Oh my gosh, this made me laugh.Any one know what these are
I was going to say a chamber pot until I saw that pointy handle (whatever that is for) ...
And then I realized the size of it and that it is on top of a table... bahahahaha
Have no clue.
Thanks. I'm hoping the new job might help me habituate.Hey Shera,
Give it a shot. You'll never know until you try it. Good luck with the interview!
Keep Musician's plugs on hand in case the kids get loud. But I think you're right. It's good to keep your mind off the T.
Belive in yourself. You'll be doing important work!

Distraction is what you need from this torture, I hope you get the job and give it your best shot.
Plus you will be still helping others which is great. Good on you for taking the plunge to even apply.

I got a good laugh out of these jcb, I'm still laughing.
Must admit the first one reminded me of the post you made of @OnceUponaTime in her fancy white pants.
Your not the only one with a feeble mind

Thanks. I was actually really proud I did apply because I was feeling crummy from the T and it was insane for my mind to focus on the cover letter and application. Not to mention their glitchy website.
This is awesome! I actually like to decorate for Halloween almost as much as Christmas. I really want to make a custom graveyard for the front yard and I want a dragon so bad!!
Oh, I love these Star!!! It just takes me a few seconds and I see them! It's crazy because I know a lot of people who can't. (Not mentioning anyone in particular. @Jcb )

Ok no one had a clue what those Chamber posts are OnceUponaTime thought they were.
We had gone to the Isle of Skye last summer for a week of walking. One day we went into a small antique shop. The wife found them, called me over to ask if I knew what they were. "Nope,no idea, how about I ask, geez they are 10 euro, we should buy them."
"Go ask what they are because they are so old and different." So off I went to ask. "Sorry, can you tell me what these are?"
" Yes I can tell you, they are from the 17th century and very rare."
"Only 10 euros?"
"No sir, 100 euros." I started to put them back, that's a lot of money, wife still staring at me.
"The are Blubber Burners for lighting, one has a spike to stick into a wall to hold it, the other has 2 rings it's for carrying in your hand."
"Huuuuh, Blubber?"
"Yes when whaling was being done they used whale Blubber for burning for lighting their homes." This set is rare because not only that most were tossed when candles and oil became popular, this set is very rare because of that spike that hold it in the wall, if you buy them never use that spike any damage they will lose value."
Told the wife she said, "buy them."
Back I went, "you want 100, how about 75?"
"You can put them back" the lady replied. So we walked out. Last day we went back and offered 85 and she sold them to us. We got them home i took them to have them appraised. I won't tell you what they said other than they are very rare and worth a whole lot more than 100 euro.

Well - of course - seeing these things does take a bit of talent!!Oh, I love these Star!!! It just takes me a few seconds and I see them! It's crazy because I know a lot of people who can't. (Not mentioning anyone in particular. @Jcb )
(not true of course - it's just a natty technique.)
Emma, that "mushroom kitty" picture you posted gets my vote for the cutest picture of the week!....
Under his staircase? 
Thanks! It makes me want a kitten....Emma, that "mushroom kitty" picture you posted gets my vote for the cutest picture of the week!....
I cannot see anything at all, just flowers. 
So now I want three kittens!
I have enough room in my heart for them, sadly not enough room in my home.
