Mmmm I love homemade soup too. I had lentil soup tonight for dinner. I often make a hamburger vegetable soup (will have to work around daughter's vegetarian habits now). I had miso soup (mostly homemade) for dinner last night. I love homemade tomato basil soup! Now that I'm drooling I'm turning off the lights to sleep.…

Yes! I bet I missed a bunch of great songs. Anyone can feel free to add!

Thank you. I don't crave a lot of foods anymore but I chime in the those who are concerned about your calorie intake. I'm not a vegetarian (was for a long time) but daughter just decided she wanted to be so for her sake I'm keeping our house veg for now. If son has serious complaints about it I'll work with it. How about a…

I agree with the tiny. Too funny about daughter doing a maroon intervention. :wink:

There are cycles and pendulums in life. You went from one extreme to the other. Now gently swing back to a resting, middle ground. It is not easy but you seem like you are made of tough stuff. I have not eaten the typical American diet in many years. I do most of my own cooking. I know you can do this and find a great…

I don't eat dairy either. I sadly can't have eggs either. Can you have eggs and is there a form you like them? My daughter and I found a vegan shake mix we like - Naturade All-In-One Nutritional shake. I have lots of food issues and this works for me (non GMO, Non Dairy, Gluten free, soy free and so on). If there is a food…

Yay. Sounds like a fantastic Day! :smiley:

For @KylerJaye and anyone else who could use a list of breakup songs: Breakup Songs (My ipod play list) I put these songs together for a friend. I think they cover a lot of the emotions of a breakup. Jar of Hearts – Christina Perri Don’t Know Why – Norah Jones Nothing Compares 2 U – Sinead O’Connor Landslide – Fleetwood…

Yes!

I ignore mine, to the point where I don't even notice them. I actually looked at one today, I apparently need a new car, a Fiat.

Have a great birthday!!!

It will have to be when I get home tonight. :smiley:

Agreed with all. I am not delicate. I can handle it and have. I have given first aid to a situation that had other other people around passing out. It does not make me ill. That said, there is a time and a place for it and that club weight room was not the right time, place, or volume (they were well above normal tones…

I know True, but this is a place, not a gym but a social club, where good manners are expected and are the norm. These men were by far the exception. Most of all I'm disappointed that my daughter was so grossed out she will avoid the weight room. Ok, I did something weird with the quotes (started on my phone then switched…

No, you were right the first time the implication (tones used by the men) were STD. The actual words were not, but the in person tone there was STD or similar. I personally was not offended however I was annoyed. I am around men in a male dominated field all day long. I have heard a lot and it does not generally bother me,…

I love honey. I have tried raw locally sourced honey during allergy season, no help. Yummy and worth eating but no help with allergies for me.

The issue I had is this is a place that specifically targets a more cultured crowd and is a club not a typical gym. The conversation was at a shout. They were less than five feet from me and daughter. Some people, daughter among them, get woozy with medical descriptions very easily. The conversation was outside of social…

Me me me too! I love horses, love cats (and speak fluent cat) and I'd be over the moon to see NY and Broadway. (pick me, pick me!)

Some are, certainly. Some have other issues too. However some men are refined and polite. My SO is the latter.

@KylerJaye just for you, sweetie, I'm putting on the Cake "I Will Survive" LOUD and on loop while I cook dinner. :smiley:

EEEEee yikes! Take care of you! I thought of you last night and what you said about running really strikes home. I started running again to help daughter. I started off, literally, running races, 5K's with her. Of course I'm not in shape for racing and running was not fun. I remember (1) it taking me a long long long time…

(Raises hand here) One kilogram is equal to 2.204 pounds. 8 (not 10) kilograms = 17.63 pounds. @Susieq_1994 some of your gain must be water that will go away. You just keep doing the best you can every day and you will get there!!

I have a break-up songs playlist I can send you if you like. It starts off with the sad, sappy stuff then moves to the more empowering stuff. My personal favorite is Cake's version of I will survive (has some swearing). Love that song!!! I will play it here loudly shortly in honor of you. I do believe it is on YouTube too.…

Oh, man, if you are having alfredo sauce for people please count me in! I soooo can't eat it and I love it so if you are keeping tabs and having some for people please put me on the list. XOXOXOX

Third-ed!!

I too had someone end it, completely out of the blue, in an email. He was my first relationship after the divorce and he was a friend. It was a "we're over" and he cut all communication. I cried some every day for about a year. At first I even woke up from my sleep crying. There is more to the story than I will post here…

Big win!!!! great job.

Holy smurf (SusieQ safe) @peleroja that was superb, wonderful, articulate and heartfelt advise! Absolutely 100% dead on right! I felt it and really didn't have the words to say it but yes to all of this.

Oh yes we could! Better make it a new thread.

That made me smile, then laugh. You tell her @girldownsouth!
