    Taking a drive to my happy place

    The last time I went to my 'Happy Place', I spent Memorial Day Weekend in the county lock-up.

    @Motorsheen I bet you looked absolutely fetching in an orange jumpsuit.

    well...... it really is 'my color'. <3

    1. Why is there a chunk of my shower curtain with bite marks and bits missing?
    2. How the *kitten* did the cat get his jaws that high up on a moving target with no solid footing to actively bite through the curtain?
    3. What is with this goober and chewing threw plastic and cardboard boxes?
    4. You have toys, why don't you use them?!?!

    I am reminded once again of why I avoid the Debate forum on MFP. There are some truly *kitten* people with some truly *kitten* attitudes and opinions about people different than them. Holy yikes. :grimace:

    Potato

    ... that's a thing... certainly. Not sure I'm comfortable staying in what amounts to a potato shaped bunker... or coffin. :grimace:

    I don't like the idea that there's only 1 acceptable way to think. I get that side of it a lot of time, but sometimes debate is just debate, not scientific trials and medical proof.

    it was 25 years today my mom passed away of ALS. she'd just celebrated her 60th birthday. oddly enough, we were both diagnosed at 55. i will be 60 in november. i can't help but wonder ....

    has anyone else had a parent die relatively young, and now you are also sick and wonder if you'll die at the same age they did?

    I cannot even imagine, and don't have adequate words. I hope you are able to fight this *kitten* of an illness. You're one amazing lady!

    My daughter, I thought we were done with this but she's being bullied again. She showed me messages she recieved and it really breaks my heart. People can be so cruel. Wish I felt better to be a better mom this week. I also wish she could follow my footsteps and leave social media aside a bit.

    Ugh. Bullies are awful. I’m sorry, friend.

    This is one of the reasons why I am getting in shape: to be able to deal with the parents of bullies, if it comes to that (and in my neck of the woods...it will).

    I’m sorry you are dealing with this. Kids can be so cruel.

    Thanks, hopefully it gets better.

    Adults can be cruel too... I've dealt with that in these forums from grown adults 😆

    My mommy heart aches 💔

    My mommy heart has been aching all day, she's had a hard time with this for a few years. It had stopped. I have a really good relationship with my daughter so she tells me mostly everything. She showed me what was happening and it really made me hate social media even more than I already did! She certainly doesn't need that, especially after the last couple of years and everything she's been through.

    I can understand why your mind would take you places like that, your age, the 25th anniversary of losing her. :( To answer your question no, not a parent although my parents having heart attacks at relatively young ages so as I passed those ages as well, I found myself actually looking at every symptom as a possibility, but grandparents dying young, yes.

    I feel it's a very normal thing to do and to fear. Our brains can't help but take us to those places sometimes. ALS is another one of those slow life-stealing diseases. :(
    I'm learning to take one day at a time, enjoy it and get out of it what you can. Tomorrow is guaranteed to no one. Keep taking care of yourself and find moments of laughter/love/happiness along the way. <3

    I was just talking about that with my mom yesterday. So sad 💔 they closed the homeless shelter here and every day I worry about where those people are sleeping now. Wish I could help the all!
