Well free shop finally started enjoy, and check every 6 minutes. Because that is the time between items, that you can select. I set a timer on my cell/mobile, so I dont forget.

Bears I timed this, so you would know time between selecting items.

Oh yes I do, any event that is set up like this event. I sent a timer for, including the token shop. I have a timer for every 12 hours, which is its normal time between items you can get in the token shop. Dont laugh okay but its true. When my sons were young, I used to set timers on my stove, and microwave doing house work or watering my garden. I have tree bed, I know the exact time it takes them to fill with water. So I put the garden hose in the bed come in a set a timer. So I can do other household chores, and wont forget i have water running out in the garden. Multi-tasking at its best, I would also run the dishes and clothes washers going. Maybe dinner in the oven, too. BUT my husband would asking me can you make the timers stop. I always said, sure when i finish what I have them on for. LOL

Hello, everyone! Hope all is well with you guys! I am deeply sorry for not being active these past few months. Things have truly been hectic. So, update on the house: We didn't get to close on Aug. 17th, and our closing date keeps changing due to some issues on the sellers end, but as of the end of August we are moved into the house (the sellers allowed us to move in early as they take care of the issues, and thankfully one of the sellers actually knows my husband's cousin due to the seller's mom being my hubby's cousin best friend, thus we were able to move in early)! Downside is, now everything is so hectic as I try to unpack and not having a very successful job of it due to anxiety, depression and just feeling super overwhelmed by everything (all the boxes just everywhere, no order to said boxes laying around, etc. {we rushed moving everything into the house at the end of Aug. when we were told we were able to move in the house early due to my hubby [and I] didn't want to [him] paying Sept. rent on top of everything bill wise for the house}). I will endeavor to try to be active more soon, especially as soon as I get my PC hooked up {or rather once I have my own monitors xD;}. Anywho, I do believe this is rather long winded and a bit stressful to read and so. . . I GOT A NEW KITTEN! He's black and his name is Moon. My black and white, long haired, 2 yr old fur baby, Mouse, is not liking him much right now, but we're slowly introducing them to each other and hopefully in the next few weeks or month they'll be besties or at least be able to tolerate one another's presence. Hope everyone is having a good Blessed week and hope everyone has had a good past couple of months!

{Also, for whatever reason, I was JUST NOW able to get the forum page to load after trying on and off the past 2 weeks to post an update to y'all!} ❤️

. hello new homeowner, that's such good news. take everything slowly. unpack only what you really need. everything else i would do calmly. remember that it's more important that your heart and soul come to rest than unpacking boxes. if you want to do too much too fast, you may soon burn out. i would try to dedicate a few hours every day intensively to my family, let the house be the house and spend it with those who are important to you. you have experienced so much and now you can start anew, but take your time with it. it is something great, exciting and also exhausting that is coming up. a friend always says; the important thing is that you finish in the end, not at what pace you can do it and if you think it is all too much for you, grab your cat and lie down on the couch for a cuddle. and the two of them have to come to rest first, so you would already have 2 little souls that need a lot of your time.

:: Thank you so much! I definitely needed to hear that. My hubby has said to take my time. He even said, one box a day would even be ok instead of all at once. I just feel a bit overwhelmed because his family wants to help, and honestly, as much as that would be amazing, I am not truly very social IRL. I don't do well in big groups or crowds and being social for long periods of time during the day, well it's super draining and I am exhausted by the end of it all. And it just feels like everyone is judging me based on how much I am getting done (or not getting done for that matter; and yes, hubby knows my thoughts I am expressing now and says not to worry about his family or what they think; sadly. . . I have always been a people pleaser and I still have lots of work in this area to go).

I have been unpacking only what we really need (dishes, food, bed clothes, towels, clothes, etc), though a few things like clothes are slow going (we both have to go through said clothes because I have gained quite a bit of weight and cannot fit most of mine anymore and he is losing weight so. . .).

Plus, I am missing my Mom (she passed in Feb. '19). She would not only help tackle the boxes, and the unpacking, but she always made everything feel better even when it wasn't or didn't feel like it. Not only that, my Mamaw (my Mom's Mom) has been gone 5 yrs as of 9/4. So I am very emotional right now on top of everything else.

"remember that it's more important that your heart and soul come to rest than unpacking boxes. if you want to do too much too fast, you may soon burn out" Definitely needed to hear this because I am trying to do too much, too fast. I am a very empathic, sensitive person who suffers through anxiety, depression, PTSD (to name a few) and so all that rolled into one just. . . yeah.

"a friend always says; the important thing is that you finish in the end, not at what pace you can do it" That's gonna be my new mantra these next few weeks, or months even.

Mouse doesn't do much cuddles with me anymore (much to my dismay given I bottle-fed him from a few day old kitten XD;), but Moon is proving to be quite the cuddlier. Then again he's about 4 to 6 weeks old (the guy I got him from last Friday said he was 7 weeks old, but he's too tiny to be that old, more like 4 to 5 wks). ^^;

Thank you sooooo much tho! Your words were much needed and I am grateful to have received them for they are sound, solid advice that I needed to hear.

Also, I apologize for all this unloading! I am normally not this way, but apparently I needed it. . . >_<;; ❤️

. i don't like to imagine how hard all this must be for you, but amazingly we women manage so much more than we give ourselves credit for. we don't think about how to do what, whether you can manage this or that, we just get it done. what lies ahead seems enormous, but when you look back, look. you're alive! and when i think about the pictures i've seen, it might feel like a 2nd chance, right? so use it for yourself, recharge your batteries whenever you can, let work be work, it's still there when you take a little time out. we are often stuck in our upbringing that dictates what a woman has to do in everyday life. nonsense. isn't it more important that you're doing well ? what good is it if you're sprucing up your house and don't have the strength to get out of bed ? i would only do what is feasible and as long as you feel good, everything is ok. if you miss your mom, why don't you talk to her while unpacking? you will see that you will remember many tips and advice she gave you and the work will be easier if you have her by your side. if you are alone, it is definitely helpful, ask her if you need help, talk to her. everything is good as long as it helps your heart.

i also do this when i'm alone, no one can see. it gets funny when you start debating, but well, that's just me. i'm sending you a lot of strength, but i don't think you'll need it. you've already come so far and i have incredible respect for what you've already accomplished.

I have done a few huge moves with hubby and i being in the military before we retired. Definitely cant put everything away all at all once, its exhausting in so many ways. May be keep all the boxes in one room with a door, and keep the rest of the house clear of boxes. So when you have done a few boxes, you can close the door and not feel pressured to empty them all. Because there all over the place. Plus get rid of empty boxes, just flat them as you go this will empty up space and mentally make you feel like you are in fact accomplishing a lot. Unpacking is a huge endeavor, and its not possible to get it done quickly as we would all like. My Mom always said, "do people come to visit you or your house?" If they come full of comments about unpacking and state of the house, they need to go home.

I am in the same exact position you are in. We were in a rush to move out of our townhouse to the new house we are renting. We tried to be out by the end of August, but of course the very last weekend, Hurricane Ida screwed up all our plans. The hurricane warnings were first putting the storm heading directly toward our area, but right before it hit land, it moved just a little bit further east and we barely felt the effects. However, the storm did do a lot of damage and people being people, it was almost (and still is to an extent) impossible to find gas. I finally finished moving the last load about 3 days ago, which I had to finish packing and moving all by myself because my boyfriend and his buddies moved all the heavy things and then, because of the hurricane, he had to go back offshore a week early. So, that left me having to finish everything by myself. I still have to go back tomorrow to drop off the keys and wait for my lawn service to cut the lawn there, and then come cut the lawn at our new house. There are boxes everywhere, laundry piled up, things that need fixing, and I am just here. LOL.

Congratualtions on the new house! Don't worry about the boxes! The essential stuff will get unpacked pretty quickly, which will leave the non-essentials in boxes. I've moved 1,5 years ago, and still have some stuff in boxes (partly from moving from a single room into a house, so I don't have enough furniture to store the things that still need to be unpacked). Which brings to mind the question of whether I should just throw away the unpacked stuff, since apparently I did fine for 1,5 years without em.
