I hate it when I'm editing things, I accidentally erase my progress. It takes me a good hour to edit most of my memes and I happen to erase it all in one fell swoop. Highkey gets me so angry, both with myself and how I just wasted all that valuable time when I could've done something else with it.

Anyway, there will be a new joke/meme within the next few weeks or months from now posted somewhere on this forum. So be on the lookout! I thankfully gathered enough energy and had the spare time to recreate it. Though, I'll likely edit it just a bit more before I finally share it with anyone/everyone else.

Listen to 'Please Don't Fall In Love With Me' by Khalid in the meantime. Genuinely might be the only thing that gets me to retry and continue when I accidentally erase these things.

I'm quick with my 'jokes' but the photo editing process is another issue entirely, and is quite literally, no joking matter in itself.

Hey Snap!
Hope all is well.
You are incredibly kind to offer help and I appreciate it so much.
Never feel bad when you need to take a break or prefer to keep a low profile. My concern will always be your comfort and happiness.
I feel like I should organize my farms better, but I have not been playing like I used to. I would never ask for help unless it was something I really wanted and was not able to manage it alone.
I really need to see about getting the game on my Android phone. I will try support yet again.
I enjoy our chats and hope to learn more about vegan food from you.
Do you not eat dairy then? I may not survive if I had to give up cheese lol!
Thanks for popping up!

Hi Snap, congratulations on your new fly trap! That event was riddled with bugs. Storm 8 asleep at the wheel.
I took a chance and wrote on your wall, hope that was ok? I try to visit quietly. Abeline has a terrible time getting on the game and missed out on darts because my spins were fences when it really mattered. Total disaster.
I did win the pink giraffe! It has been years since I got a prize. Decided to use gems on the other farms to have giraffes there as well.
I like the new event and country fair, I sure hope people sell the fancy eggs from collecting chickens.
Thanks for keeping in touch. Grateful you sound happy, balanced and in a good place. Do you garden to support your vegan diet? I enjoy it, but have not grown anything for a few years now. Just having an assortment of herbs is lovely.
Thanks so much for saying hello and being kind, I appreciate it very much!

Hey Snap!
Thanks for visiting Sundance the other day. That farm is level 42, Raindance 59 & Abeline 79. I have very little trouble with Sundance, but if I switch my log in to Abeline on my iPad for both, it can be very difficult to even get in. Raindance on my obsolete iPod touch I get in but the game is difficult to play. Slow, roll backs and crashes.

You might need to dominate the LB and get after the new fly trap!!
Sundance was getting LB zoomies for a time, but now at a higher level they?ve stopped. Because you don?t play much, you might have good luck getting some free rides.

Thanks for the post. I rely on faith and find comfort that God and my angels are watching over me.
We must walk in light and beauty, appreciating the love shown us.

Take care my friend😊

Someone recited this in the comment section on a social media platform.

"No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 NRSV

And also told us that "when you're struggling with this kinda of stuff just remember to breath and say a quick lil prayer asking god to help you overcome such thoughts" and it's such an important reminder, for me at least.

Because I know that what I've been through is part of the greater purpose of my betterment and strength. Again, it is all part of God's plan.

It is a gift that I get to experience every emotion in life, no matter what it is or isn't. Forever blessed for the gift of life that I was given well over 20 years ago by both of my parents and God too. I intend to make the most of it going forward and not disappoint any of them.

Hey Twix,
So sorry if your farm is having issues like mine. Sundance is the only one that functions properly. No chance to play events as intended.
I have not been playing much. Went through wildfire threats, possible evacuation and power shutoff for about 3 weeks. Very stressful and for this to occur in January is crazy.
We finally got a little rain. Definitely need much more.
Hope you and your family are well and that less time on the game has helped to balance things.
Take care my friend!

Now with the 2 important points out of the way, I'd like to use my forum wall as a social media of some sort.

Posting on it when I have something to share to everyone, but something that doesn't need its own separate post somewhere on the actual forum or even posted on my in-game wall. I'll post it on here instead.

I'd imagine that since I've received over 20k views since August of 2024 - the quickest and most I've ever received in such a short time span - there's at least someone out there who reads or has read my forum wall.

Of course, I won't share anything too personal. As I want to keep my personal life and gameplay separate from one another going forward.

Entering my mysterious era in the big 2025 like I should But in all seriousness, I hope everyone understands. It's nothing personal against anyone. I just don't want to worry or stress anyone about my own life anymore.

kind of personal

Onto my journey of veganism, I've been vegan since September of 2024, so for 4 months now. I don't see myself ever going back to being a carnivore, dairy or fur consumer ever again for the rest of my life.

It's seriously helped my mental state, knowing that I'm not contributing to such a huge part in more animal suffering. As hard as it was losing my cat last year, it has helped me see things much differently than before. I'll take that one thing from this experience and view it in a good light with no negativity. Like God intended me to.

And I'll forever be grateful for the light that manages to shine through during these dark hours and only focus on the positive aspects and self improvements. God always has a plan for me and I need to understand that and respect it. Deal with it in a better and more mature way going forward. Like I should've done before.

Happy New Year's everyone! I pray that it's a prosperous year ahead, and that everyone is blessed with some peace and quiet with their lives and that other than some (hopefully!) good news within your own personal lives, it's otherwise uneventful.

May God bless you all with good health and a healthy state of mind in this new year.

I'm thinking of trying to immersed myself in the gracious green earth that we are so fortunate and blessed to have. As it's very lush and beautiful. Plus I feel much better being with it.

Hi Snap,
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and all the best in the 2025.
I still can only play 2 farms at a time and have a really hard time getting into Abeline farm. Raindance does all kinds of crazy glitches with crashes and roll backs that undo things and I lose a lot of game stuff.
I must be crazy to continue with it being such a struggle, yet here I am!
I think because I have so much time, energy and effort invested I hate to abandon it.
I hope you are well and in good spirits.
My older pup Cowboy, is hanging in there. He still enjoys his walks and with heart medications and a good diet he rolls right along.
Let me know if you are playing again, I can pop in to visit.
Take care
