Some ups and downs,

Back in Toronto to be with my gf (I call Seattle home atm) so woo! Also she adopted a new kitten who is just the cutest and loves laying on me because I run warm 🥺

But also my gf just got shafted by a weeks long interviewing process for a position she was really excited about. She's been trying to leave her toxic workplace but looks like she'll be stuck with it for a bit longer :( it's been difficult on her mental health and I'm being supportive where I can. Work stress plus ADHD means we spend a lot of time in bed in the evenings.

My works been really exciting lately but I've been mostly keeping it to myself because it feels a little rude to bring it up.

Good luck to your girlfriend on finding a new job! Toxic workplaces are so damaging to the mental health.

My girlfriend is currently going through a similar thing
