If your company gave you a wfh supplies allowance, how much was it? New job sent me a laptop and said if I want them to order me a monitor or desk chair or other supplies, send them a link and they’ll let me know if it’s approved. They didn’t specify an amount. The only thing I really need is an external monitor, since the laptop they sent has a really small screen. What’s a reasonable amount to request?

Well ladies today I turn 30 I keep getting emotional not because I’m getting older but I’m just so grateful for people and experiences I had in my 20s. I’m also someone who stressed a lot about work and my career in my 20s. Now I still want to do a good job, but I don’t care as much. Did you have any realization when you hit 30? :)

I love my kid so much. He was with me throughout all of elementary but has been at the middle school for the past 3 years. He had only a handful of kids he knew from our elementary. He made all of his new friends on his own. I have been meeting them one by one and am sooooo impressed with their character, manners, interests, and grades. He chose his friends wisely! Anyone else experience this?

“Can we make the drizzle a little more luscious?”

My issue is less with the fact that the word “luscious” is pretty binary. The drizzle is either luscious or it isn’t. My issue is the “a little more” part. So, it’s luscious right now. We want it MORE luscious—but definitely not a lot more, just a little. Otherwise it would be TOO luscious. Can’t have that.
