It's so difficult living with people who just criticize everything you do and say and hand very little regard to your mental health and make you feel uncomfortable being yourself. If you can't handle a kid who's different especially with disabilities, don't have kids -S23U

My suggestion for us to use Teflon tape was a good idea for the water heater project as we ended up needing 3 layers on the hot water fitting. The cold one only took 1 layer of Teflon tape. We first sealed it with pipe sealant which us old school people call "pipe dope". That's what they called it in the old days -S23U

The last part of installing our water heater was the hardest part. It kept leaking as it was filling so I had to go back and forth a few times, turning off that hot water pipe on the PEX manifold and helping Dad take apart the fittings to apply Teflon tape on the pipe dope. Took 3 layers of tape on one of them -S23U

During our plumbing project with the water heater, during the many times, Dad needed to sit down and rest, I put wire zip ties on wire and drilled the screws into the overhead ceiling of our unfinished basement. I also helped crimp PEX pipe rings to attach fittings and helped take apart a fitting too -S23U

Whilst working in the basement, when Dad almost fell, this is what he would have fallen on. That round duct fan is sheet metal and he would have fallen, face first on it, had I not reacted quickly to catch him. I almost lost hold of him but was able to push him onto his chair and take over some of the work -S23U

My elderly dad and I put in a new small electric water heater in our basement and being in the higher part of basement, him being 6 feet, 3 inches tall, he could not stand all the way and had to work leaning over the entire time. He almost took a bad fall but I was able to catch him in time -S23U

I worked 2 days so far with the cat rescue and first day was tearing out walls and prying out metal frames. 2nd day was prying off trim board, and removing doors, vent covers and outlet covers. I could not take the outlets apart due to how they were wired -S23U

My local cat rescue was donated a house by one of their followers that was paid in full and my mother and I have been going there helping with the start of the renovation. My mum can only do lighter work, so she helps with the yard work and I have been helping them gut the inside of the house. -S23U

I work 3 volunteer jobs in addition to being a 24 hour caregiver to my elderly parents. I planned on going to one of my jobs yesterday but I was too sick from my illness to go so it was a self care day and I got some things done and played my PS5 and watched a little TV with Mum -S23U

Made chicken pasta salad for dinner out of prepackaged pasta salad. Dudley and I both liked it but I forgot mayo tears up my stomach and I end up in and out of the bathroom for the next few days. Mayo and I don't get along. -S23U

My one eyed orange kitty decided to play where my crockpot normally goes when not in use so I couldn't help but snap a photo with my S22 Ultra -S23U

My elderly parents are in for a silly prank. I put leftover pasta salad in the butter container in front and placed it in front of the butter container that actually has spreadable butter in it. 🤣 -S23U

Had a resident at work turn 90 years old today. She requested instead of singing "Happy Birthday" that we ain't her favorite hymn, "Amazing Grace". So we did. She was a miracle child like I was. When she told me about it, I told her of my unexpected birth story
