My son started early childhood intervention at 6 months. They came to the house for quite awhile. He had OT/PT at the house and Speech at a hospital - children's hospital and there was something else (more PT or OT) that we went to a school location for him to receive the therapy. It seems "normal" to me. Hugs. I hope it…

@bkhamill Congratulations grandma! I hope all goes well for mom and baby.

Have a great time!!!

I buy cycling gear from Trashy Cat on sale. They have a pink jersey on sale for 15 right now. I have that jersey and it has held up well for years. They run small. I also watch REI sales.

It is hit and miss with quality. I have a dress I bought on clearance there for $2 that I have had for 11+ years and it is holding up like a champ. It is a classic timeless summer dress and I wear it a lot. Other stuff does seem to wear out quickly, but I have had good enough luck with their jeans and some of their…

Glad to hear that - sick kiddies are no fun.

Oooohh Fun! Have a wonderful time.

Yes to all of these. Especially "I'm a nice guy". There is also "I know how to treat a lady." If you have to advertise that then you probably treat a lady as a possession. UGH. "I'm misunderstood" means I was never properly socialized and I expect the world to change to suit me and I will pout and throw fits about how…

I'm sorry your trip got canceled for today. I hope all is great tomorrow.

Welcome!

My mom used to make a dark chocolate cake. Bake in a rectangle pan. Cook a bit (I don't know if all the way or not?) then put a can of cherry pie filling on it, then put whipped cream (or in her case probably cool-whip) over the top of all of that. The pan kept everything in place. It has been many years since I learned…

Yes to all of this.

Thank you. Your sweetie sounds like a good guy and as a long-time GF person I am happy he can cook that for you. Daughter and I tried a new restaurant today that is vegan and gluten-free. It is the one place I can order anything on the menu and not worry that I'll get sick. I have not had that option in so long I can't…

@pofoster21 That sounds amazing. Have sooooo much fun!!!

Thank you. I know a lot of you also posted similar things (or thought it). Thank you all so very much. There is nothing to do for awhile it is just me getting used to it and gearing up mentally to do this again. I thank you all again!

Congrats

He is 15 now. Thank you.

@KylerJaye I didn't backtrack to the original post. I just wanted to second whoever told you to be sure to be yourself. Be very true to you but in order to do that you have to know yourself well. For me that means checking in with myself and checking in with my motives. Speaking just of myself, sometimes I want things to…

OUCH!!! I hope you heal quickly. The rest of your post had me smiling and laughing.

Welcome and share a confession.

Whaahooo. I caught up. Four straight hours on here. YIKES.

ooooh FUN! Have a great time.

My journals are often whiny and pouty pages long pity parties. They get all of that crud out of my brain and onto the page where I can examine it. If I feel strongly about something I make myself explain it to myself. I make myself dig into WHY I feel what I feel. I've done it for years and it is so private that I often…

Thank you.

Thanks. At this point they just want to see him in another year....but...last time they felt it would be longer than it was so I will have him looked at in 4 - 6 months. Thank you again. He is visiting my parents for the summer so it will still be a few weeks until he's back at home. I can tell by his behavior pretty well…

I love it. I had to sell stuff in school. Didn't like it. Preferred paper drives and car washes.

Start from now and try different things until you find what works for you. Weighing daily works for a lot of people. It helps me keep on track but now I have my scale hidden from my daughter b/c it was not healthy for her... but there is no "right" weight for me. I have a range that works depending on what my goals are.…

I have zero idea if my SO has "in a relationship" marked on his facebook page or not. I don't know if it would occur to him or not and I don't care either way. I don't do facebook. :smiley:

Good luck getting through them all. I've done a little canning. I made an Italian Plum jelly once. It took so long...but was so good.

Cool. I've started to catch up to myself. (big goofy grin.)
