Sex with my boyfriend of a year and 3 months in only ok. We never kiss, he won't finger me and doesn't like giving or receiving oral. He's 54 years old and has spent around 16 years on and off in prison for drugs, alcohol, and robbery. I get him going by giving him a hand job. In the beginning he was always a nervous wreck wanting to hurry hurry because he'd go soft sometimes. He'd get so upset. Now he's more relaxed because I've helped him through that. He used to have to take viagra. He hasn't had to in a long time. He always says I'm the best sex he's ever had. We talk and cuddle after which he says he's never done with another woman. I love him, but want more from sex. He said he'll try and it never happens. I know there's more to a relationship than sex, but dang.

I did the keto diet and although it did work, I just couldn't stick with it long term. I love carbs too much! Imo it's never a good idea to completely eliminate a whole food group unless it's for a medical reason.

I love watching the Keto vs. Whole Foods Plant Based arguments about which is better. Know why they both pretty much work? You are cutting out the crap! Most people will lose weight when they eat a clean keto diet and most people will lose weight on a mostly plant based whole food diet. Where you have problems is when you eat all the keto or vegan "snack foods" they market. I also wonder if people realize that calorie counts for processed foods can be off by a lot--20% or more. I find I do so much better when I eat mostly whole foods and focus on not eating processed garbage.

The baby shower Zoom party at work was a success! My coworker was shocked by the surprise! I made baby pics ppt of coworkers, bought cute onesie related to our field, ordered macarons with baby designs. Coworkers gave nice compliments on planning another great virtual staff party that was a lot of fun. I love leading these events to bring joy, humor, connection to our work.

My dh:"we should have sex more often. I wish you would let me do anal. I love that you're so into me." Also my dh: "I think we have too much sex. I really can't keep up with you." Dude, what do you want? I enjoy it, but I can also happily go without ever having sex again. And no, I'm not doing anal.

I am so very sorry. I have always had pets, and it's always incredibly hard to lose them. But I have a cat right now that I am ridiculously attached to. I have loved every animal I've ever had, but there is just something about this cat. I have never been this attached to a pet. Ever. He's only 2 years old, but I already think about and dread the day. He hurt his leg and had to have surgery a few weeks ago. He's fine, but he had to stay overnight at the vet, and they won't let me in because of COVID. They loved on him and would send me pictures. And he was so out of it from the anesthesia and pain meds that he really just slept the whole time. But I cried all night.

I don't know what I'll do when my dog gets old and dies. I just love him so much. I don't know how I'll cope.

You know what I REALLY love is when they call back WHILE my boss is leaving them a long-winded voice mail. I don't know why he even bothers, but it's just so frustrating. "He's on another call, I'll have to ask him to call you back." Then I go in his office and he's like, "That's who I was just on the phone with leaving a voice mail." Stupid.

In college I loved reading and scored high on writing assessments, but as an adult I'm having a hard time keeping up with it. My goal in 2021 is to read at least 21 minutes a day. I've mostly kept up with this goal. At work have to write blogs more often, but I feel like my abilities have really declined. How do you improve in this area?

A lady I used to work with died over the weekend. She was very sweet. A force to be reckoned with. She was 54. She loved her husband, kids, and grandkids. She had cats, that she loved very much. She vacationed every year in Florida with her family. I found out she killed herself. She shot herself in the head. Everyone is just in shock. Tell your friends and family you love them. Be kind. You just never know what people are going through.
