Pre-covid: I used to regularly dye my gray hair, I just have a few that grow near the temples and the rest is black.
Now: letting the hair grow, no dye, grays are showing and I could care less.

My moms the only one who complains, I don’t have a BF, and I’m okay with the gray since 90% of my head is still black. I see no point in using chemical dyes if I’m home most of the time!

I saw a trend that people are dying it platinum or something like that ... you know, embracing it rather than trying to hide it. It looked cool

Yea. But that’s still dying it. My hair is still mostly black.

Hi Moms. I’m 4.5mo postpartum with my first, and I’m having incredible feelings of resentment toward my husband, who I love dearly and with whom I’ve always had a great relationship. It feels like he’s not factoring me or the baby into his decisions (e.g. going on a 4d boys trip, attending big events), while I’m left with the consequences. My mat leave is ending, and he’s now sick with COVID. He’s quarantining at my in-laws while I return to work and take care of baby. I’m so frustrated… (cont.)

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines. She now requires that I go back to the office to “show face” that HR is right alongside the essential employees. I have been more productive from home vs the office. I get the perspective of team unity, but is it wrong to feel there is no reason to risk my health? The company justifies increasing my covid risk (high-risk already) to “show face”, when my job is being fulfilled while WFH. Am I crazy?

One year ago this weekend my mother was dying of Covid 2000 miles away from me. On Mother's Day we were told to make a decision to either consent to an invasive surgery that may do nothing or put her on hospice. She died on her own while my siblings and I tried to decide. I need to crawl into a cave this weekend until this holiday passes.
