    I try to create positivity. But I’m not sure I’m athletic enough to swim the 2.4 miles for an Ironman 140.6
  • I can’t make it through the day without fatting out.

    I really don't like the woo button.

    I don't get it...it's too ambiguous now ..

    when I use it it is positive, but I hesitate to even use it anymore

    Oh I’ve got a story for this.

    Dating a guy maybe four years ago. He drank way too much. One night he pees in my bed. This guy gets up and walks over to my side of the bed and tries to get in, pushing me to the pee side. It’s the middle of the night so I just get up and go sleep on the couch. Not kidding, he comes to the living room and says he can’t sleep alone and squeezes up next to me on the couch. All while wearing the clothes he peed in.

    I don’t mind the sleeping alone thing.

    Admittedly, its been 30 years since I've dated. But is there really a way for a guy to recover from this? Or, that next morning, do you just move on?

    Scanning through the handwriting thread brought back memories of when I was younger and my grandpa would spent many days trying to teach me how to write in cursive. He had the most elegant cursive writing I've ever seen. His writing could have been a calligraphy font lol I guess my confession is now I'm an emotional mess. I miss him so much.

    I know how you feel. Its amazing how the little things that our lives ones did in our lives can trigger such emotions.
    One of my big triggers is gardening and believe it or not cutting grass. Chores of all things. My step-grandfather taught me how to cut grass before that when I was just a wee little one he would give me rides on the riding lawnmower. Both sets of grandparents taught about gardening.
    I never feel closer to them as I do when I am in the garden. It's why for me gardening can tend to be emotional for me.

    Very great point. Mine is hand washing dishes. I LOVE it, and it's because it reminds me of my Grandma.

    Mine is helping anyone fix things. My dad always tapped me to help him-from the time I was tiny. It always makes me think of him & how much I miss doing that w/him.

    I do this with both my children, I want them to be as self-reliant as possible. However, I know that it will also build a bond that they will remember long after I'm gone.
    Ive also passed the gardening bug on to my daughter.

    So many hugs girl. I miss my pap, too. Especially when something reminds me so fiercely of him.

    It is an awesome way to bond w/someone. The kids won’t appreciate it until they’re much older, but then they’ll realize what a gift it is.

    I mistakenly informed someone that Pilates was created by prison inmates because they wanted to exercise but didn't have much room in their cells. I don't remember who I told that to. My bad!

    I thought it was a guy named Joe Pilates? Or was he a prisoner? I don't know lol

    ETA: never mind I see "mistakenly" now. You almost had me, B!

    I know, right!? It's just so believable.

    As long as they don't tell anyone else that, it's a victim crime.
