Is the tough student able to recall and reflect on other of their earlier learning experiences? For example, learning to ride a bicycle started with difficult moves that produced little of the thrills they would later enjoy and, actually, on occasion, yielded painful injury! Can that student vividly recall that struggling, unappealing beginning to the splendid freedom, mobility, and achievements that the matured skills later yielded?
Crocheting can be a pathway to making new friends, enriching the lives of others, creating wonders that inspire others.
I once participated in a small group that was making, “Prayer Shawls,” warming, comfortable, wraps for elderly and impoverished folks.
My attempt together with a profound lack of skill, at least inspired laughter amongst the group, as my attempt at a, “Prayer Shawl,” only produced a, “Prayer Snake!” 😉

Dr. Thais Gibson teaches us that 95 to 97% of our beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and actions are driven (i.e., derive from) our SUB-CONSCIOUS mind!
The sub-conscious mind cannot be, long-term, overruled by our CONSCIOUS mind (e.g., “will power”).
That’s likely why you felt compelled to make the purchases you knew, consciously and intellectually, were not in, objectively speaking, your best interests.
However, (and this is the potentially ‘life-changing’ good news) one can ‘reprogram’ (i.e., ‘rewire’) their own sub- conscious mind using techniques, in the privacy of their own home, that Dr. Gibson teaches through her, “Personal Development School.” She also gives away for FREE, through abundant YouTube podcasts, educational presentations on this and related subjects.
Once her easy technique is learned, an approximate, minimum time required to make a change is about 5 minutes, twice each day (best done on waking and when preparing for sleep), for 21 days.
Foundational to her method are: vivid imagery along with intense emotion, brought to (i.e., recalled, imagined) ‘top of conscious mind’ AND repetition (e.g., twice a day for 21 days).
Any individual can employ the learned method independently, that is, on their own. However, she also does have trained, Certified Coaches, standing by for those who prefer to hire more granular guidance and moral support for their healing journey.
There’s a moving, inspirational song that seems to celebrate such victories by Linhy called, “I Didn’t Quit, I Rewired:”

Buona sera!
I appreciate your from-the-heart post. I like your style and I’ve been watching.
They remind me of when I first got into bagpiping, more than 40 years ago. A friend, with me in Atlanta, Georgia, recommended I telephone Mr. Gibb McKenzie, in Birmingham, Alabama, to order my inaugural supplies.
What an uncommon gentleman he was! Attentive, kind, thoughtful, easy-going, efficient, and TRUSTING: he drop-shipped my supplies to me immediately, not waiting for payment, trusting he would get paid, which, of course he did. My check probably crossed his package in the mail.
The shared trust and respect energized our business friendship. I always enjoyed working with him, which I did for years.
Your energy reminds me of his. I’m glad you’re here. I look forward to buying from you!

The Osbornes ( and the Compaqs of vaguely similar form that later came to be ) would have been, at least, uncomfortable, if not downright untenable, if pressed into service as, “laptops!”
The more appropriate category name, “portable,” was used in marketing. Many, in my circle, commonly used the sobriquet, “arm stretcher!”

I recommend ALL coffee drinkers who find themselves occasionally pressed for time, try, “Java House Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate,” (single serve cups of liquid NOT for Keurig machines because the coffee has already been brewed) available from Amazon, in various flavors with caffeine and at least one flavor of decaf.

By way of encouragement, I have always found you to be a wonderful and pleasant human being. However, my opinion is irrelevant to the point I hope to make here:
You have an innate (“yarn-dyed,” if you’ll forgive the pun) God given, right to exist, to occupy your space.
That’s not something ‘earned’ on the cuffs of other people’s opinions about you. It is a free gift from God that none have a legitimate right to diminish or destroy.
Healthy people are, generally speaking, open to meeting you, seeing you, hearing what interests you, and what you’re about. Fundamentally, it is their inclination to want you to be successful, effective, and happy.
I recommend, when feeling intimidated, a deep, slow breath, then diving into the discovery and adventure. Disappointments you may discard; delights you will treasure and nurture.

Die Art und Weise, wie Erwachsene Bindungen eingehen, wird stark davon beeinflusst, wie sie während des Heranwachsens – vor allem zwischen der Geburt und dem sechsten Lebensjahr – von ihren Bezugspersonen behandelt wurden.
Dieser Kurzlink sollte Sie zu einem 75-minütigen Interview führen, das Mel Robbins (Folge 130) mit Thais Gibson geführt hat; Gibson ist meiner Einschätzung nach die weltweit führende Expertin für Bindungstheorie.
Ich empfehle Ihnen, den Link erst dann aufzurufen, wenn Sie sich 1 Stunde und 15 Minuten Zeit nehmen können, um die Inhalte aufzunehmen.
Es ist eine unglaublich effiziente und kostenlose Einführung in den Umfang und die Grundlagen der „Gibson Integrated Attachment Theory“!

I heartily recommend, “Lemon Eucalyptus!” My daughter spent a week in the woods, with about 30 classmates studying and practicing, “Cobb House” construction.

Ich stimme Ihnen zu: dass Eine ungerechtfertigte Anschuldigung ist gleichermaßen unangenehm und schwierig. Ich hoffe, Sie können Trost in der klaren Erkenntnis finden, dass eine Anschuldigung weder eine Tatsache noch ein Beweis ist – Sie ist lediglich eine Meinung. Und da diese Anschuldigung in diesem Fall völlig unangebracht ist, gleicht sie schlichtweg Müll und verdient es einzig und allein, als genau das entsorgt zu werden, was sie ist: Müll. Zudem hoffe ich, dass deine wahren Freunde fest an deiner Seite stehen, während Sie diesen emotionalen Sturm meisterst! Danke, dass Sie die Welt zu einem besseren Ort machst – und ganz besonders dafür, dass Sie Kindern dabei hilfen, zu Menschen heranzuwachsen, die Licht und Freude in die Welt tragen!
I agree with you that inappropriate accusation is both unpleasant and burdensome. I hope you are able to find solace in the clarity that an accusation is neither fact nor proof, it is only an opinion. And, in this case, as the accusation is inappropriate, it is like rubbish and is only worthy of being discarded as the rubbish that it is. My hope, also, is that your true friends stand with you as you prevail against the emotional storm! Thank you for making the world a better place and, specifically, helping children grow to be contributors to light and joy!

The next time you detect the onset of a viral illness, especially an URI, I recommend you gargle then swallow 17 grams of Nature’s Way (brand), “Sambucus,” (product) every 2 to 4 hours through bedtime. Let it be the last thing on your throat as you begin sleep, hydrating during your waking hours after the Sambucus has had one hour of dwell time following each ‘daylight’ dose.
I have an extraordinary track record of success, beating viral URIs OVERNIGHT, with that product.
The virus you described does sound unusual and severe, indeed. Sambucus may well have been unsuccessful against THAT one. However, its use is so inexpensive and easy, in my estimation, it’s worth a try. However, waiting 24 hours after onset of an illness to start its use, dramatically reduces its efficacy.

I’m serious: sure cure for mice: get a number of, “Victor,” (brand) snap traps ( large size for rats vs. small size for mice (e.g., field mice, house mice) ) — the old-fashioned design with the wooden plank base.
With gloved hands so as to not leave your scent on the trap, tie about 12 inches of braided nylon string (mildly melt the cut ends so the strings don’t fray) to each trap, through the staple that serves as the ‘hinge’ for the trip wire. This gives you a way to pick up the sprung, successful traps without even coming close to the dead mouse. OPTIONAL: you can staple (workshop staple gun (e.g., Arrow) NOT a household stapler (e.g., Swingline, Bostic) the far end of the string to any nearby wood in the rare event that the trap doesn’t instantly immobilize the mouse — these snap traps are usually instantly ‘fatal,’ or at least instantly immobilizing. The staple also protects from the violence of the trap being tripped jerking the string into the vicinity of the ‘instantly’ dead mouse. It is not unusual for the expired mouse to bleed — consider that mess as part of where you put the trap or what you place it upon.
Next, tie, with sewing thread, a chunk of, “Snicker,” bar (e.g., one-half of a, “Mini,” size Snicker bar) to the extended end of the treadle ( the flat piece of metal that is intended to hold the bait and communicate its movement to the trip wire ), springing the trap. Next, smear the Snicker chunk, and the thread that is around it, with, “Simply Jiff,” peanut butter. Now you have an irresistible bait combo TIED to the treadle — mice cannot resist it and they can’t steal it — its as close to inevitable as you can get — if they find it, they will trip the trap.
Now, you can go up attic and select places to place the traps. Usually best to place it alongside structures where you think or can imagine the mice are running (the often feel their way along structures).
Once you’ve selected a spot, NOW you can set the trap catching the free end of the trip wire under a protrusion on the treadle, resisting the tension of the snap. Then, VERY gently place the trap, anchoring the far end of the string, should you elect to exercise that option.
You’ll want to check, as quietly and distantly as you can manage, the traps once daily. Replacing successful traps until they stop catching mice. No catches for about a week would suggest you’ve won, you’re done, and you can stand down the traps so as not to leave food out to attract more.
When collecting dead mice, together with their traps (I don’t reuse the traps), I would bag them while in the attic so you are not blowing mouse germs everywhere you walk as you take the rubbish to the trash outside.

I am suffering an identical problem: years ago, Walmart bought the Wrangler brand, at least the part of it that produced my everyday trousers I had been buying for years. Walmart then RADICALLY altered the design, construction, and eviscerated the quality of the materials used to make them — they no longer had strength, durability or the full measure of utility they once had. Walmart clearly approached these changes with NO CLUE why the garment existed in the first place! What they produce and offer for that garment, today, is only marginally better than, what was once, the ubiquitous, black, ‘Mao,’ pyjamas of mainland China.
In desperation, today, the best I’ve been able to find to, fill the role, is Carhartt brand, “Men’s Cargo Work Pants - Relaxed Fit - Rugged Flex(R) Canvas,” (Style #103574) and similar Carhartt styles.
Carhartt actually proves to be MORE durable than what Wrangler used to offer before the Walmart debacle! Carhartt’s weakness is that, contrary to the ethos they want to portray, they seem to have NO IDEA how, ‘real working men,’ are shaped and move, such that, their, “Relaxed Fit,” wears almost as snug as, “skinny jeans!” (I have a reasonable BMI of 22.3, so it’s Carhartt that’s cut too snug, not me being too filled out.) An additional challenge, with Carhartt, is that they are more than twice the price of what Wrangler used to offer, but that’s, at least, understandable as Carhartt quality and durability is SO much better.

“No one ever told us,” because the medical professionals, officially, didn’t know until, in1998, an Australian Urologist, Dr. Helen O’Connell, published recommendations/findings that dramatically revised previously accepted, standard anatomical texts. O’Connell, et al, published additional material in 2005. Further insights came from French contributors Odile Buisson and Pierre Foldes (accent grave missing from my keyboard) in 2008 - 2009 and then Rutgers University in 2011. Where discoveries may have been available earlier, it seems they were dismissed or ignored due to value choices within the medical community. Is it fair to call the history, prior to 1998, “institutional blindness?”

For beginners’ HIIT (high intensity interval training), the Topo (brand), Aura (product), has worked extremely well for me. It is not heavy, like a 1970’s Converse, nor is it a, “barefoot,” shoe with no support. The Aura has some comfortable support without being heavy. Its Toe Box is incredibly roomy without being excessive.

On my knees, and in the name of Jesus Christ, I still thank God for the magnificence of His unimaginably vast creation and His love for every single individual one of us.
