    Being the default parent and how draining it is sometimes 😔

    It’s been on my mind that the woman I met at my big 20 mile hike, who I have hiked with since and who I plan on hiking with in the future, is so opposite me in background and lifestyle.

    First of all, she’s a different race. She grew up outside of the continental US. She grew up a different religion and currently has different spiritual beliefs from my own. She has an extremely different job (a branch of law enforcement). She has never been married, though she has a boyfriend. And she has no children.

    But we have had great conversations and get along well and we like to hike at a similar pace.

    Well, I think this is the coolest.

    Wondering if I will have to go to work, at Banana Republic, tomorrow. We are in the path of Hurricane Idalia. I can’t imagine anyone will be that desperate for a new pair of chinos in the middle of a storm. My kids’ schools will be closed, but I haven’t heard anything about the mall.

    That's cool. It's nice when you meet people through a common interest such as hiking because they can be super interesting and like this different than your normal friend circle

    I've had the same song stuck in my head for days and I feel blessed that I'm not sick of it yet considering it won't go away

    All I can say is thank you to the universe for not putting this particular song in my head on repeat

    You’re probably right, I think you have that.

    Just found a series of videos about a show called Adults Adopting Adults. Apparently it was scrubbed from existance after three episodes (out of 10 they filmed) and it immediately goes off the rails

    "I'm afraid I'm attracted to my new daughter"

    ...SIR.

    You know those days you're running back and forth to 50 different things and never feel like you're at home. It's one of those days. Soon I'll be in one place longer than half an hour

    IT just made me violate a core value. They told me to reply all.

    I asked a couple here on MFP to adopt me earlier today. I guess I should walk that back now.

    This was the face of his wife when he explained how he became "acquainted" with the adoptee online

    Depends on what you're looking for

    Wanna be wined and dined by a man who has something wrong with his mental faculties? Well then I have the messed up situation for you

    😂 To clarify, I wasn’t looking. These friends happen to be amazing people who do fun things. If they don’t take me in I’m out of the parent shopping market.

    My ex husband is so difficult to have a conversation with concerning the business and our son.
    Funny though, since we’ve divorced he isn’t so quick to start yelling at me.
    I do get satisfaction from the fact that he feels he should check himself with me now, he didn’t feel the need for 37yrs.
