  • So my sister survived but then made some other not so great decisions. She's narrowly avoided death 3 times over the last month and a half. Situation she's facing now though has legal repercussions that no one can do much about.
    A rather tough update, I find myself at a difficult time in life, on Tuesday my sister made a suicide attempt and her life is currently hanging in the balance. Acting on her behalf, I have done everything I can to move heaven, Earth and Hell for her. I am going out to see her and through my actions have convinced my parents to do the same. I was already set on heading out to see her when I got the news on Tuesday.

    I hope she gets the help she needs and your family can heal in this difficult time.

    I'm so sorry to hear this. I will keep your sister and family in my prayers ❤️
    Anyone have an idea where I can find post a thread for selling a bioactive starter culture? Both my bioactive enclosure and the backup cleanup crew enclosure have gotten large enough populations that I can start selling off excess. Also have some pitcher plant cuttings I've managed to get to root.
    Well I took a bit of a hiatus from the forums to grieve my recent loss. It will be a while before I acquire my next chameleon simply because I know I can not provide the level of care required for a young chameleon at this point in time. I am still helping others interested in keeping chameleons and doing my due diligence to make it obvious that they are not easy to keep in comparison to other reptiles.
    I think Chandler might be getting close to the end. Behaviours are changing, he's eating less, has reduced grip strength and he's hiding more. I have owned him for 5 years come this October with an unknown hatch date.

    That's very impressive! I'm sorry to hear that he's been slowing down. But it seems like he's having a really good life under your care.

    So I just realized how many people get trapped by what is commonly referred to as the "system" but in reality it's just people's greed. I'm realizing most people don't manage their money well and simply just make enough to pay for the things they want. Most will be pass and leave nothing behind for their children. I don't plan to do that.

    Idk if greed is a fair word for it. My friends/family that are often broke tend to be the opposite, too damn generous lol. These people usually work hard and want to come home to enjoy whatever, get food, and/or take their kids fun places. The money adds up fast. Balancing family, house, and career/education is overwhelming on the best days. So I think it’s more of a discipline or in the moment thinking issue.
    Well I can tell I'm on the road to recovery, just hurts realizing a lot of the issues that exist in my family and how they've affected me.

    We can’t control the way other people act…it is who they are and right or wrong, we need to accept that. However, we can control the way we react to them and how they make us feel. When given negativity, look at the source it came from before allowing it to cause you to feel bad. It’s a process to learn. Keep believing in yourself.
    Things are going really well despite the turmoil. I've got the GPA average for both master's I'm interested in, all my ducks are in a row for the move and I can probably buy my own house within 5 years.
    Well, I finally got around to updating my chameleon's Instagram with his new enclosure.

    Well, I'm putting out fires left and right. I knew October was going to be busy for me, but this is ridiculous.
    So after doing a lot of reading, I'm realizing just how lucky I got on purchasing my first car. Despite the issues, most have been caused by normal wear and tear. The engine itself though is perfect, so my first car should last until the body rusts away.
    Well, I have finally found the root cause of my car troubles, also turns out to be the last of the gremlins from the previous owner. Essentially I get to clean out my engine, not hard to do thankfully. Finally have confirmation that my engine and turbo are fine mechanically.
