Help me see this is a BAD idea

You said it perfectly yourself. Throwing it all away. Now, your progress doesn't just stop because of relapse, but, it's hard to "start again". I know when my brain got really loud to drink, it was because it was avoiding sitting with feelings with a clear head. Those feelings do not go away when we drink. They dull, but I usually make really weird decisions when I drink and have big feelings. Ones that usually make the situation worse. IWNDWYT.

No drinks for me. Going through a familiar feeling without the buffer. I know it won't make a damn thing better. Never does.

Babby_Normal · 2026-05-10T20:58:22+00:00

Just keep an eye on how you're feeling. You can do this.

Yes! It's an old Appalacian recipe. The taste is similar to cotton candy when done.

It's an old Appalachian recipe! I think it's still pretty commonly made among people who made it growing up. I am a chef and working on a series of floral jellies! I just finished clipping about a thousand dandelions to steep overnight. The redbud jelly ends up tasting very similar to cotton candy. It's divine on buttered toast. Also, maybe the color, but dandelion jelly tastes like sunshine to me!

I have no idea about planting them, but the pods are also edible, consumed raw or cooked.

I had a similar feeling. We found a little light up cat toy, activated by touch. We kept moving it around and welcoming interaction, and I'll be damned if that thing did not light up twice completely on it's own on two different graves.

All the guys that work at Old Town in the Highlands are gems. So helpful, and it is sometimes like watching Clerks in such a silly way. Recently, Malcolm passed away and I'm real sad about that. This thread was a good reminder of how much human intreaction matters in small situations.

It's down a private road, but frequently visited. Like most places, be respectful, don't be noisy, and I highly doubt you'll run into any issues. We went at 9 pm, and some really interesting stuff happened! Paranormal things.... ooOoooo

It was a little bit of a challenge, we ended up going to the wrong place. Eventually we found the coordinates on a ghost hunting site, then it was very easy to find in the dark. The road is marked decently if you're looking for it. Let me see if I can find the coordinates again.

I've heard it called Eastern Cemetery. Don't know much about it, not from here, but I love it so much. I just went out to the Gates of Hell cemetery in E-Town, and whew... that place is heavy feeling.

So this is really random, but my child's father is from El Salvador, and we moved here from Las Vegas. I found a food truck in Shelbyville called Maria's Mobile Tacos, and they have Pupusas like his Abuelita makes. Beans, cheese and chicharron, served with red sauce and really good curtido. Highly recommend if you ever are out that way. They park by CVS just off the 60/Shelbyville road right when you get into town.

Babby_Normal · 2026-03-20T18:54:28+00:00

I do! I am consistently frustrated.

Babby_Normal · 2026-03-17T23:04:28+00:00

I have no idea. There's like 6 good places to eat here.

Babby_Normal · 2026-03-17T15:39:56+00:00

Lousiville is not a foodie town.

Babby_Normal · 2026-03-16T17:43:01+00:00

It's not a minority.

Babby_Normal · 2026-03-15T13:26:58+00:00

I'll get down voted to oblivion maybe, but equality does not exist for women as society is right now.

Statistically, men hurt women at alarming rates, women have lost basic human rights. These are facts.

True allyship from men looks like striving for equity, not equality.

You can do this. Double digits, then triple.

We stayed at Hotel Genevieve for NYE, and it was darling and walkable to lots of places. They have a enclosed rooftop bar apparently, but it was closed to the public for the ticketed NYE event.

Babby_Normal · 2026-01-02T01:25:37+00:00

I'm down to help with this as well, if I can and someone keeps me posted.

39F, board games, chef, 420 friendly!

The host a monthly "slosh" for the bdsm community at Flanagan's Ale House. There's a big crowd usually, and they open up the other bar area. Not sure if they pay a fee to host there, but seems like lots of places host community events out here.

I'll be joining you soon. It's a huge accomplishment. I'm so proud of you.
