It’s easy to fall down the rabbit hole when playing online games.

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5402) 10 Oct

Life Update

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5402) 28 Aug

I recall sharing that my mom and I often clash. Our relationship was toxic. Until my cousin died of cancer a month ago. She has totally changed. Perhaps, she came to realize how fragile life is. I have been suffering from...

Help! My Child’s Room Is a Museum of Trinkets

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5402) 20 Jul

As I wrote earlier, I forgot our Sunday potluck, so I shared beverages instead of food. I was worried we might get late because I lost track of time while doomscrolling - my bad! We took a taxi to the church instead of bus, which...
