  2. As soon as I am legally able to, I am changing my name from Dmytro to Dima.

    "Dmytro" is basically a document-only name. Growing up, it was only ever used by strict teachers. Everyone else has called me Dima since birth. But now, this legal name essentially functions as a deadname that follows me everywhere. It is completely unpronounceable and unreadable for most people I interact with.

    The resulting typos in emails and chats are endless - I regularly get addressed as Dymi, Demi, Dymo, or Dema because people have no idea how to spell my actual name based on the legal one. It is exhausting to constantly explain the mechanics of Slavic name shortening, and having to reassure colleagues that no, calling me Dima is not rude or overly informal.

    It just creates an unnecessary daily social tax and constant friction.

  3. So random good news. I dropped my A1C down two points. I went from a 9.1 to a 7.4 in 3 months without having to do a whole lot. I switched to "zero" everything when having sodas and started limiting desserts.

    Not just a brag, but hoping that this inspires someone else to get their numbers under control. It can be depressing to be forced into life changes.

  13. Today was a whirlwind of emotions. It started with a lingering sense of unease from a vivid nightmare that left me feeling vulnerable and scared. I've dealt with nightmares throughout my life, and while they have become less frequent over the years, they still occasionally catch me off guard. These dreams often revolve around past experiences or completely random scenarios, leaving a lasting impression on my mind.

    Despite the rocky start, I went about my day as planned. I attended a church service, which was enjoyable until the social gathering afterward. I struggled to connect with the humor and conversations, which left me feeling out of place. It was a reminder of how challenging social interactions are for me.

    On a brighter note, I received communication from the university regarding my application to resume my studies in neuroscience. The request to explain my previous withdrawal caused some anxiety but I managed to articulate my reasons and the personal growth I've experienced since then. My GP offered to write a letter on my behalf, which was a surprise. I have a music rehearsal tomorrow, and although some changes in the music are causing a bit of anxiety, I'm determined to prepare for my solo performance on Sunday. #LifeUpdates #Music #dreams

  14. #LindaUpdate2 tell me WHY when I casually mentioned to my neighbor, Donna, about my having a girlfriend, her immediate response was to ask me if I’d finally made nice with “That Janet Cunt I’m Always Complaining about”

    ??????????

    I’d rather sit naked on an anthill than embark on some bizarre “enemies to lovers” thing with her

  17. Life has been quite the whirlwind and yet at the same time has felt like we are in limbo. We are busy but we are also trying to sell, buy, and move to a new house. We are not sure how our life is going to play out in the next month or even the next couple of weeks!

    One reassurance we have is that things usually resolve themselves in the end, especially when we are doing the best we can to do what is right.

    We just gotta ride the storm in the meantime 😂⛈️🌪️🌀

  18. 5) Switched to AT&T Fiber internet a while back (think I already posted that) but combined with the (Google) Nest Wifi Pro, my network is much better!

    6) Drove to Colorado for Christmas vacation stuff. Was an interesting time.

    7) Baby is in daycare now!

    8) Got the Bullet Journal, Journal. Gonna organize my life a bit!

    9) Found a therapist that happens to not have any sort of copay for me, and this is honestly great.

    10) Uhhhhhh.....number 10 because I wanted to end on 10.
