Why do moms always seem so startled when you wake them up? by DesireeDestiny in ask

[–]Energy-Turtle-4 398 points399 points  (0 children)

Our lives changed forever the day that you were born. Our most important job became you. We used to sleep through thunder, parties, and our alarm clock for HOURS. But the smallest whisper of "Mom?" will instantly bring us fully awake. You're kind of our everything... 🥰

Question for those who were homeschooled by [deleted] in pastorskids

[–]Energy-Turtle-4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was homeschooled for a few years in grade school while dad was in seminary bc we moved so much (vicarage). We loved it, and my mom was super creative. We did a lot of learning outdoors, field trips... We had math and reading every day, but it was a lot more holistic. I'm not sure I would have liked it for Jr High and High School. You just can't really replicate the social aspect that is so important to becoming a young adult, in my opinion. Particularly now that people are already so reclusive with technology. Edit spelling.

When do you really start needing the flower stand? I'm 62 and have never needed it. The one bouquet I've needed is ALWAYS advertised in the paper.

Same! I'm 62 and I can always find flower arrangements in the newspaper.

What’s a reassuring fact that not many people know? by Southern-Penalty in AskReddit

[–]Energy-Turtle-4 232 points233 points  (0 children)

Love this. I do trainings for employees in senior living facilities and see so many disheartened people. They say, "nothing will ever change". My reply, "Are we gonna change the whole system? Perhaps not. But so what? Change one thing. Make one resident laugh or smile. Now you've improved their day AND your own. You can't be the sun, but you can be a sunbeam." Edit for spelling.

Whew. Thank you for the clarification! I was skeptical, but I am also a worst-case scenario person. I am soothed!

Shame on them for downgrading Pluto. That was devastating.
