    Ok to vent but in the end you can't change it. The sooner you realize it the sooner you will enjoy what is going around you. Good luck

    Bullshit, I say.

    That's too many people, that's honestly too many people for a healthy person. You need some time to yourself.

    Pick one or three or whatever, and say "Hey...****o,...lets take a drive to [wherever you want to, just to get out of the house]

    Finda park, finda just a chill place

    Down to just my wife.

    I’m feeling much better than I was the last few days.

    Which one is the pakalolo?

    Hope things are going more upward for you, bro. I like your garden. Seems like a great place to go sit out by in the early morning and do some meditation (if that's your thing).

    I’m working on the weed and mushroom garden inside. But yes, im much better. Worked with my company on my stress between sales/battling cancer, and we put a plan together. Just took a complete breakdown for me to have the balls to tell my company I was struggling because of my health.

    When I was first diagnosed I broke multiple sales records at my company, got a nice promotion, and thought I was invincible…. I was not. But luckily everyone from the CEO down to my direct manager were supportive of me getting my head straight.

    I’m not exaggerating when I say I wouldn’t have a fraction of the resolve you do man.

    The fact that sometimes it gets to you just means you’re human

    I'm so sorry I missed contributing here when you were up against the fears, @CCorn.

    Happy to see the progress and gardens and rumors of catfish. Also the work re-alignment sort of news.

    Some of y'all know the Mrs. has been up against it, stage 4, and I just want to say I get it... the I-can-do-this-I-can-do-this-I-can...oh-****-tho-not-today. Household here in remission, but chemo damage recovery ongoing. Just a process and celebrating progress when it comes, and definitely celebrating any freaking single day that does not involve any sort of treatment, right?

    I'm really happy, for CF, that you're sharing. Given a 40+% occurrence rate in the US of A, most people here will be confronting it in their households at some point or another, or dealing with this sort of stuff their own selves.

    This really hit me at one of Mrs. B-Bob's chemo sessions when we just saw so many chemo stations, just an airplane hanger worth of people getting chemo, all at the same time. ****.

    (By the way, folx, not aiming to hijack; this thread is about CCorn and not Mrs. B-Bob. The Mrs. is doing great, all things considered, etc., but she def had and has days like the post that started this thread, and she's tough as iron.)

    Yes many of us will and have dealt with cancer. Either for someone we care about or ourselves. My longtime Judo Sensei succumbed to cancer this past summer but seeing his example of how he dealt with it inspired me. He was supposed to die in six months but lived for more than a year and half after being diagnosed with stage four. He also kept on teaching Judo up until a couple of weeks before he died.

    Dope garden, CC. Can always count on the outdoors and greenery to lift the spirits.

    There's a lot to admire about you.
