  • I got in late to the party on Sabio Lab work. Having passed Prework, I started lab work the following week. Well, I was supposed to. There’s some confusion on my end and the school admin about how the process of enrolling should go for vets attending through Vocational Rehabilitation & Employment Program (Voc Rehab).…

  • I’m having second thoughts about the Facebook singles’ group. It’s kinda bumming me out. Not sure what I expected. Maybe I’m just not in that place.

  • Recently, I joined a singles group on Facebook. Someone asked the question “Have you been on a real date in 2019?” I started wondering if I will ever date again. I started wondering again about not agreeing to marry without a prenuptial agreement and what sorts of things I might put in that agreement. I…
