One of my favorite decorations is a bookshelf with very prominently featured titles that make people question either my sanity or their own.

I love swimming for that reason yeah. I’d do it a lot more if I had easier access to a pool. I had been looking into places near me to go to but it’s hard to find times that work for it. Might get a little easier once the kids are a little older and we could take them easier.
More importantly though, that’s not being the people in the joke. It might not feel like it, but there is a big difference between seeing someone struggling with a limitation that you also struggle with and offering something that helped you, and someone who has no idea what you’re going through pulling a suggestion out of their ass and making it sound easy. It hits different when your suggestion comes from a place of seeing a shared struggle and mentioning what helped you.


Thanks so much for the kind words. I appreciate it so much. I hope you have a fantastic rest of your day.


This is probably the worst part mentally about chronic joint pain for me. i want to be active, I want to lose weight, but I’m sitting here maxing out what I can physically handle just doing my everyday stuff. On a GOOD day I get about 3k steps in and I’m feeling it for days after. It’s so goddamn demoralizing.
Then in my case I’m also taking care of my partner whose health has been declining and 3 autistic kids. It feels like I’m barely keeping up.
That can’t be right. I swear it was just Monday like 25 minutes ago.
This is literally the face my daughter made, hugging the coffee cup and all the day she stole an entire large iced capp from off the register at the grocery store when she was like 3-ish.
We were getting groceries at Sam’s Club and they at least at this time made you give them your cart to scan the stuff. We had our twins with us riding in there seats on he cart so they went to one side while we paid. Well it happens that some of the managers were doing inventory and one of them had placed their iced capp on the register. My daughter saw it, decided she was having it, and took it. We get the cart back and start walking to the door when we hear that telltale sound of a straw in an empty cup. We didn’t notice it before that because she had the cup in an absolute bear hug hiding the whole thing.
My wife goes to apologize for Little Bit stealing the drink to a look of horror from the manager whose coffee that was saying “That was full…” clearly thinking this kid was about to have a heart attack. This little girl was so sleepy after downing that coffee that she didn’t wake up when we got home, when I carried her to her bed, then slept like 4 more hours.


Nah, Cracker Barrel almost certainly wanted the redesign because that particular sector has been moving trying to avoid the whole “You can tell this used to be a Pizza Hut,” thing for a while.
They want to be able to just open up a store anywhere with minimal investment. Then if their store is super generic it’s real easy to offload the real estate if that location doesn’t work out. It’s easier for another firm to buy the real estate if they don’t have to spend a bunch of money making the former Cracker Barrel not look like a Cracker Barrel.
Sorry for the late reply I completely spaced on responding to you. I don’t have a list off hand because we don’t actually have one. It’s something I want to do eventually. But like my oldest has a book called like Crafting with Cat Hair or something like that, my partner is really into Chuck Tingle who often has insane titles like Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt. Basically anything you’d walk past in a book store or scroll past on an eBook platform and it’d make you say “What the fuck?”
