I’m glad you got a job that’ll help support you. Sledding looked fun. I like watching people sled, but am not a fan of cold and wet. Dealing with the space in your brain is a good thing. I make extra lists for myself. It helps. The slip is cute. A date sounds interesting. Keep your boundaries. He sounds like a compete trigger warning. Keep going. You’re doing great. Restarting your life is hard.
Loved your sledding outfit. Everyday clothes mean doing everyday things in them, including sledding. Our clothes really do not care what we do as long as we wear them happily.
Love these good changes for you! I also love kitting up projects. If I'm feeling ambitious, I'll cut the pattern pieces out of the fabric, but I'll at least cut out the paper pattern pieces, then chuck them and the necessary thread and notions into a jumbo ziploc bag. Right now, half a dozen "grab & go" bags are in a bin beside my sewing machine. It's a nice treat to grab one and make something new!
You seem happy and confident in yourself lately. I hope you feel as good as you look :) Seeing you laugh and giggle and thoroughly enjoy yourself got me laughing too, it warmed my heart!
Good follow-up for "I don't have boundaries with my friends." would be something along the lines of "Do you have a *lot* of friends? How do *they* usually approach the boundary thing?" because, honestly, that sounds a little too much like, "I don't even know what boundaries are and wouldn't recognize them if they were labeled with highway signs."
Proud of you for working on your boundaries and validating your discomfort with the guy. 👍🏻👍🏻 Keep making yourself the priority!! It will make life so much better and it gets easier to be confident and comfortable with what you do want
The sledding looked like so much fun! We don't have enough snow atm and I also don't have a sled, but maybe I should get one from the second hand store and hope for more snow :) The swing dancing incident... I understand why you felt yucky afterwards :/
I just love dancing. Luke and I found a way to hook into a local group that knows all the venues every weekend in our area- I mean area of over 100 miles! And we get an email summary for the schedule of the month- but there are also facebook groups all over the place that advertize. If you like dancing and don't want the ICK of wierdo datinng app interactions, see if there are some groups on facebook that advertize when and where the bands and dance groupies are meeting. I love the loose, informal, come-and-go-as-you-please group - I can go and dance, or not show for years and still show back up, re-connect and still pick and choose my dances, time I feel "peopley" etc.
Would you do a video on the costumes in The Law according to Lidya Poet? The dresses are phenomenal and this might be an easy topic if you just use pictures and point out detail that's the same as in historical garments (so you don't get copyrighted)
I just discovered you today. I think you are totally, 100% adorable. You look a LOT like one of my own very beloved daughters. [Can I hire you to make clothes for her?] I was wondering if you would be interested in helping out the new youtube content creator, "Big T Bariatric," in getting his wardrobe in order. I offered to help him, but I think the two of you together could make some $$ on the project.

Your laughter while sledding is so joyful. Gotta love it!

There is a lot of joy. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Glad you're doing well! Fun update. Boundaries are important but hard. Good job working on them!

I think the ick was more from a lack of social awareness
@@scrappypatterns gotcha.

I'm not familiar with that show. So probably not
Me as an austrian beeing absolutely shocked that you don't own any winter clothes😂😂
Winter lasts 1 month in Ohio. 😅 Going to need to invest in some now that I moved.
