    I am so happy that my son (41) and I have always had such a great relationship.
    That he feels he can tell me things about his marriage, his dad, his kids, his friends, his existential thoughts makes me very happy.
    We have the kind of relationship I always wanted to have with my mom but never had.
    I feel like I was successful with my main purpose in life.
    Deeply satisfying ❤️

    My mother telling a story about how she got separated from her group on a trail & her electric scooter died on a long steep hill & a powerlifter came and pushed her all the way up and how safe and protected she felt and how “she didn’t even look that fit.” 🤦‍♀️

    I have some older neighbors on either side of me - one raises chickens both layers and meat and one has a nice garden each year - I want to learn from each - and plan to reach out and try to learn as much as I can from them while I’m here - it’s time to stop thinking about things I want to do and start taking actionable steps - I’m feeling good about 2024 thus far - could just be that cold shower / post workout high idk
    Yeah just tell them you’d like to know what breed, where they get them, how they feed & house them. If they process themselves ask to participate. You’re going to be surprised how not rocket science it is. Also how annoying. You’re lucky. I had to learn from books.

    Do it!!!! We got inspired by our neighbors as well and ended up making a raised bed and we plant jalapeños and all sort of peppers, cilantro, tomatoes, cucumbers.. It's time consuming but well worth it. Or you can start doing potted plants and see if you can keep up with those this year and if you do, go bigger next year. That's what I did. I started with 3 jalapeño pots and 2 tomato pots and I didn't kill them so went bigger the year after.

    If I could change three things about my body I would be pain free, I wouldn’t need to poop, and I’d be able to grant wishes every time I O

    Interesting thought... If I could change 3 things about my body... I think I would get rid of that lower belly overhang, ditch the cellulite, and fix the gaps in my molars so that I wouldn't always need toothpicks to be comfortable. LOL

    Though... I do like all yours too. Turns out I need way more than 3.

    I have an 18 year old who has been diagnosed with chronic pain / fatigue and fibromyalgia. They recently obtained official government "disability status".

    They regularly struggle with feelings of ending it all, because they cannot imagine living their whole life this way. I am worried about their future - what life will be like, how they will find their way, and whether they will be able to be self sufficient. It's so scary and not at all what I imagined parenting to be.

    They are so amazing... incredibly intelligent (even with brain fog), an excellent writer, and so thoughtful. I want all the best in this world for them, and it terrifies me to think of what would happen to them if something happened to me. #sorryfortheheavy

    From one mom to another… this is so hard & I don’t really have words to adequately express how deeply your situation moves me. Healing for you and your child

    Please don't apologize. You deserve to vent and be heard, too.

    And yes, as a fellow parent I know that we feel everything our children feel, regardless of how old they are. Much love and support to you and your child. You're an amazing Mom and your support will guide them on their correct path.

    I don’t get it - maybe a selfie example is needed 🧐
