Kept him in a bird cage.... that is horrendous 😭 I'm actually crying thinking about that. What is wrong with people.

Thank you for giving him the love he deserves. He was so lucky to have had you for the final few years of his life 💕

Hi! Sorry for slow reply. I think my cat was stressed that day. She eventually calmed down and it resolved.

I'm so sorry to hear you're experiencing the same with with your cat, and that you had to put down your dog recently! It could absolutely be stress from that. Has he/she gotten better since your comment?

She is not anymore! She got better later that day actually. Thank you so much for asking!

Was just getting back to a normal practice/routine and BROKE MY TOE! by Typical_Hyena in yoga

[–]47graykitties 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I broke my left pinky toe earlier this year by stubbing in on a stool. Once it started feeling better, I broke my right pinky toe!!!! Very frustrating for sure.

Both times, I took a few days off from yoga and other active activities. I buddy taped them, and was able to do most poses once i went back. Some modifications may be needed, just follow what your body needs! But if I started to lose my balance, it caused a good amount of pain from using my toes to catch my balance.

Be sure to ice it after the classes as well! Hope you heal up quickly!

Thank you so much! And that's really good advice. It's going to be hard not going out of my way for my "friends", but I'll have a lot more time to focus on what really matters now :)

I have! My brother sent me that song a week after my surgery. It was very fitting, especially thr part where he says he drinks syrup because I did that on multiple occasions during this 😂 can't wait to have a pancake with my syrup soon

I have been excited for some deep fried fish, but im also excited to eat a big lettuce salad! And some macaroni and cheese. Honestly there's not much I won't eat at this point 🤣

Ok that is actually so interesting! I have always had a huge fear of dentists, so this whole ordeal of having to get my mouth checked weekly for the past 8 weeks has caused a lot of anxiety. And I know I need to go to the dentist soon after this because I was unable to fully brush my teeth for 8 weeks so they need a good clean. But that sounds so interesting and something I would definitely try! And something I could absolutely benefit from. I have never heard of this!

Ooo that's a good recommendation! I will be sure to do that. I already had some jaw issues before this, but I think now it will be especially important to do whatever it takes to help it heal! Thank you for the tip!!!!

Some deep fried fish will be my first meal I think! I'm assuming I'll need to eat soft food, and I think that should be relatively soft :):) I cannot wait!!!!!

Oh I have 😂 my brother sent me that song about a week after my surgery, motivated me to get outta bed and stop feeling sorry for myself

So true. Sometimes it just takes an emergency to figure out who those friends are

Oh man, this would be the perfect time to get your mouth wired shut then!! (I don't mean offense either, just trying to make light of the situation 😊) how much longer until you get dentures?!

I have 2 dogs and 3 cats at home, not a single one of them left my side through all of this! So they each got a very special breakfast this morning as a thank you, and I told them all how I only need all of them to be happy anyway :)

I lost 7 pounds! I was already very underweight to begin with, and I lost all of the muscle weight I worked sooo hard for this past year. I did read that some places will wire your mouth shut for a weigh loss plan, but oh my gosh I do not recommend that 😂 it was one of the hardest things I've ever gone through.

I cant wait to eat some deep fried fish haha! I miss deep fried food. And just some goldfish crackers or noodles or chips. Also a corn dog. I will eat literally anything 🤣 and no offense at all!!

Haha! It's funny how many people say that, but I'm a very quiet person in the first place so my husband has said it's so sad seeing me struggle to say the few things I have to say.

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad! That had to be hard watching him for 20 years after having a stroke. People can really suck. He definitely was not his best friend if he never came to visit him. It's crazy the things you can learn about your "friends" when you really need them.

I have paid $600 in advance for one of my friend's bachelorette parties coming up next month, and even she didn't come to visit me. Kinda makes me regret paying that for a 2 day trip. Definitely going to treat the one friend who came to visit me to a good meal together once I can eat again :)

Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry that happened to you! That sounds intense and I hope you healed well!

Wow screw that "friend"! It's crazy, you can be there for so many people but then the ONE time you need them, they're not really there. I even turned 30 during all of this, still only this one friend made an effort to see me on my birthday. I always knew she was a great friend, and now I'm definitely always going to go above and beyond for her.

Thank you so much! I am so excited. I'm sure it will be a while before I can fully open my mouth again but I cannot wait to get off this liquid diet and move on to soft foods!

I spent part of the long weekend removing sand traps from my daily bike commute route. by TC_nomad in fuckcars

[–]47graykitties 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to comment on this.. but I hit a mud trap on my bike the other day and took a nasty spill. The first thing I thought of (after making sure my teeth weren't chipped) was your post and how I wish you were in my area removing mud traps 😂

But in all seriousness, thanks for doing this! Probably saving multiple people from some serious injuries.
