I'm a wedding photographer. My dad was a wedding dj and I grew up around the wedding industry. I went to school for art and photography was my focus. Wedding photographer just made sense. I love what I do and I can't imagine anything else.
Hope you found some testers for your containers! If you still want more testers, I'm not PNW based (in texas) but I'm a professional photographer and have so many plants and never enough containers, especially hanging ones. I'd love to help out :)
Oh yes, good point. That's a big part of my problem when it came to my reddit experience in the end. I mean shit, I was a redditor since 2009. It was hard to leave but also not.
Wow! I just looked and I'll have my cake day soon too! I really thought it had been 6 months. Time flies.
Gonna be honest, a lot of times I feel like I don't belong here, I'm still figuring things out. I'm not a "techy" type person (that seems to be some kind of prerequisite) and I barely know how to explain the fediverse to the layman, but I left reddit when they fucked over Joey (my preferred reddit app) and read enough to give reddit the middle finger and never look back. It's been nice, really. I spend more time outside of the internet now. But I believe in the fediverse, I think it's the right thing to do. I still check up on lemmy daily, but I get much more value and human connection and only spend the time that is appropriate on lemmy instead of endlessly scrolling. Most days I end up in some Wikipedia rabbit hole. Just like the good ol' days. Learning new things, meeting new people. That's what I love about the internet.
Is THAT why I've literally never been able to see these???
Their old asses don't know that and no amount of explaining will help them understand.
I was kid A. Of course, I didn't turn in EVERY assignment but I burned myself out from an early age just to get by. I met my husband in college who kid B, and was always so jealous of his ability to do everything last minute, never study, and get higher grades than me. For reference, I'm a woman and I believe adhd looks a bit different for most of us than it does for men. Being kid A means I was diagnoses but never treated because I was "doing fine". I struggled so much with depression and anxiety in my teens and 20s though.
I bumped into my high school abuser a few weeks ago. It's been 17 years. They didn't notice me thank god. I still had a small panic attack and had to like, process it. They really fucked me up though. Not a normal bully.
I'm doing what I love as my career, but it was a hard road to get here. I started off out of high school as a professional photographer, never charged enough, didn't know how to run a business, got burnt out, didn't touch a camera for a few years, then after some desk jobs, realized photography was the only career for me. I decided to do it right this time, took business courses and prayed I didn't end up hating it again. It's worked out for me so far.
