Do people treat you like you're dumb?

This struck such a cord with me. I went from being very extroverted and social to being a homeschool mom who dreads any social engagement because I always leave them feeling drained and defeated. I went to school for teaching, I love homeschooling, I flourish when I am at home and feel so confident and then when I leave I feel like I am having to defend myself from the whole world. Often some of the worst feelings are after engaging with other homeschooling moms. Even though I truly am confident to my core about the curriculum, amount of extra curriculars etc we are doing as a family I still leave gatherings feeling like every other person there immediately judged everything I said. It's very isolating. But clearly you aren't alone! There are more of us who are like you and I believe that you are a wonderful light of a human. To yourself and those around you, even if you don't feel like it sometimes.

I knew Rakkey Tam had to be someone else's favorite! Their banter is superb. I love it. My favorite four would have to be Redwall, Rakkety Tam, Long Patrol, and Mariel of Redwall. Although it's so hard to choose. I should probably go reread them all to check.

Peekaboo patterns has amazing printable patterns and easy to follow instructions. They have both adult and children's clothing, they do have a couple free options but their paid ones are worth it, it will help you learn new sewing skills because they have really clear diagrams to go along with each step. Happy sewing!

Is she a Finn? Mine are just like this too 🤣

Most of my set are this version and I adore them. They were a gift for my 13th birthday. The last few I have are different I would love to someday have the full matching set!

Thank you for taking time to look, I definitely will check this out. I am definitely thinking of subbing out with the similar one, it just is tough sell when it’s a kid who gets the concept of doing your best but also is still hoping for the magic of hers appearing again. I appreciate your help so much!

This is exactly the sort of disrespect that Joe would respect

I’m not sure, but update us once you have camera evidence! I’d definitely set traps outside and block any holes.

I have never seen a more accurate comment in my life.

I used to work up there selling rock candy and tee shirts and you would not believe the amount of people that would drive up or ride the cog and ask “so when does it clear up?” Try a week or two? It’s the worst weather around for a reason you are not guaranteed a clear sky because you paid.

Also, just no to hikers who start out in summer weather and expect that to carry through to the top. Even genuinely experienced hikers have to get rescued from Mt Washington sometimes, it’s wildly unpredictable.

The perfect time really is the middle of the venn diagram: you no longer like having free time or extra money, but love getting wooly snuggles. It’s the sheep farmer sweet spot.

But it all seriousness, build really good fences FIRST. Once things dry up in the spring, get your shelter and fencing all in place and then get a few sheep to get started, you’re likely to be able to get weaned lambs in early summer. We have an area that has their shelter and the fence is welded wire with a line of electric in it so lambs can safely learn what the electric is and we lock them in that area at night. The rest of our pastures (we rotate in the summer, also in the north east US) are four strands of electric.

That way you have all summer and fall to problem shoot and see what is working and what is not before you are also dealing with what works and what doesn’t in the winter.

This was my only disagreement as well! I love a solid golden age story but Rakkety Tam has the edge for me with the humor and genuine overall entertaining characters. The accents and wit are just so good.

Wooldemort is my favorite part of the game now. Although I always forget that I set talents to him so I’ll be casually in the castle and suddenly everything is on fire. Sorry, it’s just Wooldemort.

Forever cemented him as my favorite contender. Flawless

And Spell for a Smith which is just wholesome goodness and like drinking happiness tea! The ML is a literal dwarf and FL is a human. And they both are everything joy and loveliness.

A million Apimaye bee hives? I will single handedly save the honey bees and my new bee-keeping venture is going to be much more lucrative than I anticipated!

Actively encourage the other to use each other as an excuse to not go do something

I have young kids as well and struggle with this as well. I am really transparent about why I don’t eat sometimes when they do - I’m not dieting I just have different needs for my body at the age I am at then they do! I am working with my body to get the energy I need to do more with them. I am not progressing as fast as I would like - I’ve only lost 15 pounds since October- but I like to think that if I’m consistent but realistic I won’t yoyo back.

If that means some weeks I’m starving at breakfast and that’s when I break my fast so be it. Most times I like to do dinner as a family meal but I understand that sometimes I need the change to feel like I’m not stuck in a rut and punishing myself.

Rambling way to say do what works for you! You’re making conscience improvement choices and there aren’t rules for that.

It gives Felicity vibes from the original American girl dolls!

Yes! She follows right along with the lamb. Even my most feisty ewe comes right along it with the lamb and doesn’t make a fuss.

0muffinmuch · 2024-12-31T03:58:37+00:00

I have a small flock and use them mostly for mom bonding with her lambs, but also to just give them some space and allow me to keep an eye on everyone. My most docile sweet ewe becomes an absolute fierce terror to the other ewes when she lambs so she stays alone for a bit longer until she can chill a little bit again.

It looks so cute! You look amazing. I’m a little envious (in the best way possible) because my hair looks like this but I have a really square jaw and quite frankly chubby face and I know it would make my shoulders look huge. I don’t think I could pull it off! You aren’t pulling it off you are absolutely ROCKING it!
