What's on your mind?

Um, well totally guilty confession: I have a gym crush. I'm guilty because I'm married. Not gonna lie, always secretly hoping he'll be there when I go--which he was today. Since not only am I married, but typically totally awkward around attractive opposite sex, I just crush from afar.

People die from “the Flu” every year.

I personally knew a 26yr old young woman who got a mild case of the Flu and 2 weeks after she recovered she had a massive coronary in the the middle of the night.
Her husband tried to keep her going but she was brain dead by the time the ambulance got there.
An autopsy was done, apparently the Flu had done massive damage to her heart.
The doctors said there was no way of knowing or stopping it.

When I talk really highly of something specific - like a restaurant, wine etc. I'll encourage people to try it out because I love it so much. Then they report back that it was terrible. 😣

I tried your crack. 10/10 need rehab

I hope the disagree on my post above was a mistake.
I stated facts that happened, what is there to disagree with in that horribly tragic situation?
Please, if it was on purpose have the balls to explain why you disagree.

I double checked to make sure it wasn't me (it wasn't). It doesn't make sense why anyone would disagree with your statement or your personal experience..
So sad to read of your loss 😔

‘Stick your neck out’ is synonymous with being brave

‘Being a chicken’ is synonymous with not being brave

But when a chicken is being a chicken and sticks his neck out, he gets his head lopped off

Moral of the story:

i dunno, something something brave chickens

Indeed. I was able to get two packages in the mail, clean up around my home a bit, jam out to some music and get some shopping done.

Our car's battery decided to die today, so that wasn't great BUT I managed not to curse the world, be mad about it and we got a jump that powered us to an Autozone to buy a replacement, so... it ended well.

About to drop $600 + on bike parts cause I have a fetish for shiny silver things. The drivetrain is also pretty cooked.

I'm justifying by the fact I haven't owned a car in 2.5 years. I haved save over $2000 in rego fees and prolly around the same in fuel.

It is happening everywhere. I only have one forum wish for Christmas, that would be to get rid of disagrees over here in chit/chat and fun and games. Go ahead and keep it in the debate section but get rid of it everywhere else. It hurts feelings and many newbies are shot right out of the saddle with their first post with massive disagrees and they never ever come back. Save disagrees for debate only and then just go to town and have at it. Save all chop busting discussions for debate.

I could write a letter but I don't know who to send it to. I don't agree that disagrees make a forum a nicer place. No, they don't. I have been on other forums and they didn't have any woos or disagrees or negative feedback and there weren't any fights over anything. Anything started, it was stopped and it just made for a pleasant experience all of the way around. There is a way. I know there is a way.


You can have a welcoming committee but when a newbie encounters all kinds of negative reactions right out of the chute they ain't coming back. I remember many of these people and they had no idea what hit them upside the head. They are new and they don't know there's abrasive people just waiting to pounce on their tender hearts. It ain't good and a change, a positive change is love overdue. Let kindness reign supreme.

@honeybee__12 Life is a rodeo.

I woke up this morning feeling angry and sad. It's been a challenging year for so many people, including myself.

Life really doesn't seem fair at times, I'm especially reminded of this at Christmas time.

This week I will visit my parent's grave site and wish them a Merry Christmas. The tears will flow and emotions will run from anger to heartbreak. One can only pray they will be there to console me. I miss them so very much. 💔

I've since adjusted my thoughts to focus on all the things I have to be thankful for. The little things we take for granted every day. The job I have, my healthy, beautiful children, my morning coffee, my warm bed, my paycheck. I don't take these these for granted.

Sometimes we have to dig deep and find the silver linings when everything around us seems to be falling apart. It's not always easy, but it's important to stay focused on what we do have, not what we've lost or don't have.

Many of you here have been such a light in my life. Whether it be a compliment, a sarcastic remark, or a silly gif. I just want to thank you (you know who you are) all and take this time to wish you all the beauty of the holiday season. ❤️ I appreciate you all.

It may not mean much (or it might), but please reach out and talk to one of us (or me) if you need to.

Your words are inspirational and remind me that I, too, have things to give thanks for. Gratitude and love are great practices, but not always easy so to have gentle reminders from others is always appreciated.
