^ I hear you, the whole scent thing is insane.
They even put scent in garbage bags.
This doesn't make your garbsge smell like roses.
It just adds another layer of stink to the stink that's already there.
I can't comprehend it.

Unless I'm blind (which I am) I don't see any mention of it being scented on the box.

Funny enough I bought a different brand of trash bags this week.
I opened the box of bags at the same time as the baking soda.
I thought the smell was coming from the bags and I was about to lose my mind.

Then I lost it anyway because of the baking soda.

WHY JUST WHY

All of them.

even L ?

"That'll cover the 60 dollars you owe me," I've been "covering" the amount I missed for bills for a f*****g month. I'm now keeping track of every little tiny thing I pay for because this is annoying. I've paid WAY over 60 dollars + way extra for gas and s**t.

It's supposed to rain today, so I did a lot in my yard yesterday so I wouldn't get even further behind on it all. Since I got long covid, dealing with the yard has been hard enough...it sometimes takes me days to get the front and back mowed, and don't even get me going about all the weeds I don't have energy left to pull. Yesterday I got the entire front mowed and all but maybe 1/3 of the back. I thought that the air quality was good enough for me to manage it without major impact. I was incorrect. Today I've been having a hell of a time breathing. My lungs ache, I feel exhausted and it's like I'm not getting enough oxygen. I have crap I need to do inside today because I need tomorrow to be able to recover so I can do what I need to do come Saturday, but I can't do s*** today if I can't catch my damn breath. I seriously hate this summer. Hell, I hate this year. It's like I'm constantly behind of everything. Every day I have more to do that I didn't manage to get to the day before, so it carries over to the next day that has its own list of crap I need to do, and that list grows bigger every day. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother. All I do is make myself physically feel like sh** and have more to do tomorrow. It's like I'm drowning here with no chance in hell of making it stop any time soon. Days like today I resent waking up and resent tomorrow for being more of the same, except there's even more I didn't do and even more I still have to do.

I want to die so bad.

My son left for a week-long, family trip with relatives who disapprove of me, but they are already being jerks to him. I don’t have the gas money to go down and get him. Maybe I’ll sell my tablet to do it.

My family sucks. I’m glad they aren’t speaking to me.

Gawwddd, I've dealt with the same too many times to count.

He drove my daughter to Florida and berated her the whole way. As soon as they arrived she went online, booked a red-eye plane ticket home, and left with her bags while her dad was in the shower.

She was about 15.

At least our kids have us. I told my son that my aunt was being a jerk and that she did the same stuff to me when I was a kid. My mom would always excuse her behavior and act like I was the problem. Always. There’s no way in Hell I’m doing that.

Tell him to write about it when he gets home.
He can start a novel about kids stolen by bigoted trolls, and plot an exciting escape.
Kind of like Home Alone meets The Hobbit.

I could do that unless I decide that a rescue mission is in order.

I suspected that this trip would be a bad idea, but it was the only opportunity he had of going on a trip this summer.
