I had four months of paid leave and negotiated two more months of unpaid leave. She told me to take as much parental leave as I could and that I would never regret doing so. I combined my disability, short-term sick pay, and accrued vacation time, some of which would run concurrently with my FMLA leave, for about four months of paid leave. AdvertisementI stressed about our financesThe last couple of months of my leave presented financial stress on top of my feelings of isolation. I think it was the best amount of leave, as opposed to the most amount of leave, for me and my family.

I'd been a single mom with primary custody for over a decade. AdvertisementMy empty nest left me feeling lonelyBeing a single mom without a life partner to divert my attention and soften the transition made this change even worse. My empty nest felt lonelier, and I felt rudderless, struggling to adapt to life independently for the first time in two decades. After a few weeks, I accepted my daughter wasn't going to change her mind and come home, so I started warming up to the idea of being on my own again. It's also positively impacted my relationship with my daughters, who look forward to hearing where mom pops up next.

The monkey, named Jorgie Boy, was taken from his owner, Brandi Botello, on Saturday morning after Dallas police officers responded to a single-vehicle accident. Botello told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth that she was charged with DWI but maintained that she was not driving. Botello told the station that the driver was a male acquaintance and that he was charged with public intoxication. Because Botello lives in Irving, a neighboring suburb, the monkey was transferred to Irving's animal control department, Dallas police said. The sanctuary's owner said the monkey would not be returned to its previous owner, the Morning News reported.

CNN —Lucy, a fossilized skeleton unearthed 50 years ago this month, transformed scientists’ understanding of human evolution. While there are now fossil hominins twice as old as Lucy, she remains a paleoanthropological rock star. Made up of 47 bones from the same individual, she was the oldest known and the most complete skeleton of an early human ancestor when she was found. The fossilized remains of Lucy, discovered on November 24, 1974, made up the most complete skeleton of an early human ancestor when she was found. They found DNA, but it wasn’t human, and it wasn’t Neanderthal.

Related Video The surprising effects loneliness has on your brain and bodyThere's a preconception that if you're single, you're either stuck at home alone or forced to do things on your own because you don't have anyone. I consider myself single at heart, which means I'm happiest and most fulfilled when I'm not in a relationship. As I've gotten older it's flipped and I'm happy to have five or six days a week to myself, although I'm happy to do more socializing than that. AdvertisementI don't have a yearly Thanksgiving or Christmas tradition now but I've celebrated them with friends, family, and on my own. I'm happy with whichever.

The coming reign of the only child
  + stars: | 2024-11-11 | by ( Ann Friedman | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +16 min
American women are having kids later in life, leaving less time to bear multiple children. American women in general are having children later, but the delay is most pronounced among the most educated. Even religious conservatives, who are biblically motivated to be fruitful and multiply, are starting families later and more often having only one child. So what will the coming reign of the only child mean for America? Just as having children is no longer seen as a required stage of adulthood, having siblings will no longer be a de facto part of childhood.

They earned their first nod in 1978 for “Some Girls,” which was recognized for album of the year at the time.

In these conversations with patients who are wary of religion, Callahan slips in another detail: He’s an atheist himself. Callahan is one of a growing number of openly atheist chaplains working in institutions around the country. Though the term “atheist chaplain” might sound like an oxymoron, he doesn’t see a contradiction between his beliefs and the work of tending to the human spirit. Other atheist chaplains don’t shy away from religion at all, instead helping people explore faith and spirituality in nontraditional ways. There may be few atheist and nonreligious chaplains right now, but as Callahan sees it, their numbers only stand to grow.

Registered dietitians say that communal eating can help combat the negative effects of solo eating. Whereas, eating in a stressed or tense state, like while looking over work emails, can cause us to digest food improperly and overeat. Baum suggests initiating virtual meal dates with family or friends, potlucks, or neighborhood meals to mitigate our lonely eating time. AdvertisementBaum added that the simple act of being more social can lead to more opportunities for communal eating. For example, joining clubs or activities often leads to people eating food together afterward.

But nearly 16 years after Lambert’s murder, the case remains unfinished. (Niroula was fatally assaulted in jail while awaiting a new trial; two defendants previously pleaded guilty, and their convictions weren’t overturned.) Then, he and Niroula began developing a plot to defraud and murder Lambert, the prosecutor said.

Many Americans face retirement woes, lacking adequate savings and relying on Social Security. McCoy said she began receiving monthly Social Security Disability checks about 10 years ago, which are currently $1,620. Despite their best savings efforts, McCoy said medical bills and a high cost of living depleted her household finances. "But to live on Social Security — which is coming very quickly for both of us — is scary." A fifth of US adults over 50 reported having no retirement savings, and Social Security often isn't enough to cover the full cost of essentials.

In an interview with the New York Times, Stewart praised the first half of Netflix's "Martha" while describing the rest as "a bit lazy." She told the newspaper over the phone that she felt the film spent too long on her time in prison and lacked color. "The trial and the actual incarceration was less than two years out of an 83-year life," Stewart said. In 2017, Stewart described her time in federal lockup as a "horrifying experience" and that "nothing" was good about it. "And that’s the thing I like most about the documentary," Stewart said.

When I'm sitting with a stressed-out patient in my office and I raise the importance of healthy relationships, they almost always intellectually understand. But it's critical, because healthy relationships help people thrive. As Robert Waldinger, director of the decades-long Harvard Study of Adult Development, has explained: "The clearest message that we get from this 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Here are three surprisingly simple and actionable strategies you can use to lift loneliness, make connections, and start to foster healthy relationships, all of which can be easily implemented even in your busy daily life. Just make sure you're being mindful of your limited time and energy, so you don't burn out in the process.
