Hey peeps...It's a big community here and Christmas can always bring up mixed emotions for people. Just a thread to say How your life is going and if anyone needs help I'm sure we as a community would always help even if it means just lending an ear.

I just got through sorting my company out for early next year...8 fucking thousand dollars later the paperwork is finished. I'm going to Phuket for Christmas to my brother in law's wedding. To be fair I would rather stay at home but I will not let my bro down.

I fucking hate leaving my dog...I'm actually anxious about leaving him here with friends...Crazy.

Speak up here and please share anything that is bothering you...More than one person here happy to help I'm sure.

Have a good one folks.

Christmas time tends to be shit for me, but not that bad. Right now I've got the day off and have this annoying bargirl who's managed to fall in love with me sitting around watching Korean soaps. She bought burgers and cleaned the bathroom so I shouldn't complain. Feel free to hit me up with a pm if anyone wants to chat. I am sure most people on here will feel good after comparing their life to mine.

My wife’s face dropped when I told her, she said “xxxxxx you know this is what my dad had and it only gets worse xxxxxxx”

And said the meds have stopped it but I don’t believe it man......she’s too tough and we talk all the time on Facebook and she looks ok but you know.....

We could compare the shittier parts of our lives and see who wins lol
Main point, we all got shit, it's up to us to eliminate the things that the negative outweigh the positive and learn to put less emphasis on the negatives that can not be eliminated

Life brother.......and she’s the healthiest of healthy eaters and lifestyle.......my wife said “your mom?, of all people who take care of themselves, oh my god!”
It's a lottery man. My dad died at 56 and he was the model of clean living my mom is still doing well and she's been smoking 2 packs a day for 50 years and substance abuse of all sorts. You never know.

I feel you bro.
My dad is dying of bone cancer.
I learned this fall. I was sad the whole thing.

He’s almost stage 4.
For my kids I keep the brave face.
Our relationship has never been great.
My dad was the anxious type really bad with money and even got me in trouble financially. I felt betrayed.
Deep down I’m bummed because, despite everything, he’s my dad...but there’s fuck all I can do. Can’t turn the clock back. It is what it is.
He’s in a different town with my sister who looks after him.
We visit him every 2-3 weeks. It’s ok.
It’s just a trip through memory lane remembering the (few) good times.


I dunno what to say.
It’s all jumbled in there.
All I can think of is to foster a better relationship with my own kids. I sacrificed my goals of black belt, fitness just so that I can be there for them when needed.

Cherish your family and loved ones.

Sorry to hear that. Hope she is doing well. Fuck Cancer. My mom just got diagnosed with her 3 type of cancer in 3 years. She is kicking its ass though. She is amazing. She has been through so much and still calls to see if I'm doing ok.

I love Christmas, I am one of those assholes who likes Christmas music all year-round. (I know I know..)
But this time makes me anxious, my sister has been going through hell the past decade with serious heart issues, she now has a pace maker and she was diagnosed with Lukemia a couple of years ago and now her ex is trying to take her to court so he can get out of paying child support early, which is making it very hard for her to afford the meds she needs to live. I try to help her out as best I can.

Anyways, she always falls into a depression this time of year and I am worried about her. I have invited her over to see her new niece dozens of times and she always says that she can't. Which leads me to think she is depressed. I drove over to her house last night to have a talk with her and see where she is at, but I chickened out because I am upset that she won't visit my daughter and I was worried I would lose my cool and further deepen her depression and compromise her health.

She is the nicest, easy going person I know but it feels like she is not interested in my kid, unless I cater to her schedule and drive there and pick my kid back up.

Any advice on how to approach her about my needing her to show more interest in my kid while not hurting her? (I have a big loud voice and I am pretty gruff in real life and have a short temper)

Man, you have to get over your self loathing. You like to wallow in the underbelly of life and then hate yourself for it. I’m not judging or criticizing at all, I understand that instinct. Take it easy on yourself.

I actually went flying off my bike and landed on my face my injuries aren't serious but they are painful and embarrassing.

at work everyone thinks I got jumped by 10 men literally not figuratively.

I had to take two sick days off work because my rib is still sore.

I actually think I need a change of city or possibly state life is getting a little boring right now I need to find new adventures in life.

I concur one of my grandpa was 94 when he died and a heavy tequila drinker my other grandpa is 82 and also has a very unhealthy life style they actually outlived my uncle who was a high level athlete and was into fitness and healthy eating since the 1970's
