    would you rather all food have the texture of wet sink food but full flavor- or, all food has normal texture but no flavor whatsoever?

    Depends on the situation, then again island hurricanes have taught me to not be a picky eater... Off the hip, I would say, 'texture.'

    Did I ever tell you about my friend who worked at a popular NA pizza chain and one of their jobs war to re-hydrate the meat in the sink where they put the dirty dishes?

    I heard someone who loudly "whistles" when they say the letter "s" and now I'm hyper aware of it when anyone talks

    Also, I imagined myself getting ready for an appointment or date in a video montage at 2.33x speed with Animotion's 'Obsession' playing.
  • I'm getting ready to make the weekly grocery list. I just got done making the five-week meal plan. That would be home lunch, work lunch, and dinners. I eat the same thing for breakfast every day, and so do my boyfriend and girlfriend, and that makes that simple.

    Boundaries. And applying them to certain people who only need me when it's convenient for them.

    Well, I seem to accidentally shut things down occasionally so I’m assuming many people aren’t interested in certain lines of conversation

    Took me almost 1 hour to figure out my daughters homework (grad 8) I feel pretty dumb 😆

    :smile: I heard an interview with a scientist a few years ago, talking about memory loss. What some were saying was memory loss after a certain age... like when you can't easily recall actors' names from a movie or TV show some time ago... he called emptying overflowing file cabinets.

    Basically, each year, we add more & more knowledge to our filing cabinets & when they become too full, we purge some of the files cuz we can only retain so much or our brains would explode if we kept everything in short term memory.

    So, not remembering means you've learned a lot & had to make room for the new. You also have kids... there's always a lot to focus on... recalling algebra isn't at the top of the list when having a frantic schedule & more important things to remember.

    So, not remembering means you've a lot of knowledge to clear before you can retrieve past files. :smile:

    It probably has to do more with how much the curriculum and academics have changed since we were kids. It's crazy the way we learned even the most basic math skills versus how they teach it now. 4th grade basic long division or multiplication stumps most parents...because of how it is taught today. We can come up with the correct answer...but using the method we were taught.

    HaHaHa! Yes I am!
    I wonder how many parents in my kids class just either do the homework for their kid, or just give them all the answers so they turn in perfect work

    ... do parents actually do that? Seems kinda detrimental to the development of your kid, if so.

    I'm just thinking if some parents are willing to commit crimes to jump their kids ahead of the line to get into college, and with the way some parents these days seem to like blaming everyone else but themselves or their kids...

    Who knows what they will do to push their kid ahead in a class...

    I mean I can't say I know it happens but I wonder sometimes...

    Let's ask an actual teacher! Hey, do parents actually do this, @minimiss669 ?

    @Mr_Healthy_Habits For some reason I am just seeing this! In my experience, I did have parents who clearly did their kids homework for them. I think that they were raised to believe that having the right answer was important to pass and they were only trying to help their own make it. I don't think they realized that helping them to learn it was the main reason for sending homework in the first place. They weren't willing to let their kids turn in a less than perfect paper. On the other hand, most of the homework sent home was either never returned or done completely independent of any adult guidance.

    Wow, most of the homework is never turned in hu?
    We fall behind on some of it but always catch up...

    Sometimes tho I'm just looking at his assignments thinking I could do this all for him in like 2 minutes 😂... And it leaves me wondering how many parents just do it... And particularly on larger projects...

    The time will come
    when, with elation,
    you will greet yourself arriving
    at your own door, in your own mirror,
    and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
    and say, sit here. Eat.
    You will love again the stranger who was your self.
