What is the best thing that could happen to you this week?
It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won't wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won't be solved just in a few days, etc
I've been having trouble with it for a LONG time. But last week I found that 2mg melatonin before bed makes me both fall asleep easier AND wake up in a better mood/less sleep inertia. I'm hoping it lasts.
a decent job offer, have been job hunting for 2 months, but i'm neither senior nor junior. for some stuff i'm expert, others i have never done, the recruiters do not like this.
Already gonna happen - it's Father's Day here in Australia, and my little girl will be spoiling me with all the little gifts she got from the school Father's Day stall last week. And we're going to start the Clone Wars series together.
I successfully negotiate a wage appropriate to the work I'm doing as a co-op turned regular employee. Currently making a little over minimum, the national average for the work is 50/hr. Would be a massive boost to my life goals.
I have a flight to catch tomorrow and am currently running a fever of 103°F.
The best thing that could happen to me would be that I miraculously get better so I don't miss my flight.
Not gonna happen though. I'll just have to book another ticket for next week. That's the equivalent of ~100 USD (~300 USD on PPP basis) I'll never see again.
Finding a new apartment. My landlord just gave notice because they need the apartment for a family member and I need to find and move to a new place within three months.
Sucks big time cuz my current apartment is a pretty new building, quality flooring, bath, kitchen, tons of windows and very bright overall and I am paying way too little compared to similar apartments.
My daughter hit a deer last evening in her car and our insurance adjuster is due to be here within the hour to look at the damage and decide what to do.
My hope is that they’ll repair it and get it done quickly… she’s due to start her new job in less than a week and needs her car to get there… 🤞🏻
Opening my email and have the work invitation I've been waiting on for nearly two months.
(before someone asks: I wasn't tricked or fooled. I did the interview, got the direct responsible for the hiring calling me and asking if I was interested, the whole deal.
But I'm waiting for a formal invitation from a national agency, for which I'll be working as a private contractor; this implies a lot of beaurocracy and too many big wigs getting bothered to have a meeting to approve having things done.)
I could find £1,500 dropped in my lap to cover my ADHD treatment expenses. Literally all of them.
Or I can just continue to suffer until I'm eventually homeless, I guess, seeing as that's an amount of money I'll never see, because life is unfortunately cruel and hopeless.
If I found or was given about 10k, my life would take a pretty nice turn towards being able to stop relying on my parents when a crisis happens.
My wife's car has a blown headgasket, and we were quoted by 2 mechanics that it'd be about 5k to fix since the engine overheated for a long period of time (sensors didn't tell us it was overheating) and needs to be replaced. This is dumb since I still owe about 5k on the car it's self so I'd probably just pay the car off to get out from under it and use the other 5k to find a better more reliable vehicle. Man, that shit would be nice.
