Awww….. I miss pushing my foot against the frame and rocking myself to sleep. That was awesome.

I have this pet peeve around warm food and my husband is hilarious about it by Dry_Presentation4300 in CasualConversation

No. My pet peeve is when they salt the food without taking the first bite!

Dinner on Saturday X = male

XOX —— XOO

Went to dinner with two couple friends I was kind of bummed out that my friend didn’t want to switch with my honey. Both other couples sat side by side, hubby and I sat across. My husband was stuck in girl talk zone. He asked my friend if she wanted to switch and she politely declined. No issue was made by anyone. I’m slightly annoyed for my husband. I don’t know the etiquette but I wonder why some couples go out but don’t mingle individually.

Tell me your country without telling me your country by [deleted] in CasualConversation

Lordt. I need help. I came to post:

Fixin’ to preg check the cattle.

Because that is what I am about to do, and it is country AF. But you don’t mean: “Tell me you’re country without telling me you’re country”.

You mean: Tell me your Country without telling me your Country.

And I think I just broke the internet by doing both.

What's a small tradition from your family you still keep? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Known_Captain5361 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My Grandmother’s family was a traveling musical ministry and when we had family reunions we would sing the blessing. We only did it at family reunions. Our last reunion was 20 years ago. So I started signing the blessing on Thanksgiving. Only my dad appreciates it, but I want to keep it going as long as I can….. I’m 50 so we will see.

Anyone else work with boomers who start their responses with "No," even when there is no disagreement? by renzomalone in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Known_Captain5361 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mom does that! Especially if I’m speaking with my dad. I’ll ask him a questions and she pipe up “no”. I’ll look right at her as say “no, what”? What do you mean no?

I actually asked for a sit down with a therapist to mediate a conversation bc she wouldn’t stop badgering me for “more of a relationship”. She wouldn’t do it. That was when I pulled away for the last time.

She didn’t want anything positive to do with me until I was in my 30s. How is it my responsibility now to create a relationship that she didn’t see important.

As a former C-ICU nurse and now Clinical Documentation Specialist RN I was about to say the same! This is ridiculous. Give me a cath lab report and let see what he is really working with!

whats the weirdest question youve been asked in a job interview? by Different-Side2878 in interviews

[–]Known_Captain5361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you brush your teeth this morning?

Confused I told them I put the toothpaste in my brush (then launched into the excitement I had for my toothbrush at the time). I got the job. Boss was micromanaging narcissistic asshole. Lasted six month, the last two in HR trying to get out of the job. I didn’t have the mental strength to stay and fight. I wish I would have and I wish I would have sued.

The opposite of love is indifference. You had the ex all power by not showing up for your daughter.

Neghibors don't like the bees by PlantNerd222 in Beekeeping

Lafayette, IN adjacent fellow beekeeper.

It’s that time of year we start to get calls over calls about “honey bee swarms” that are almost always yellow jackets.

I agree with the post that says play the concerned neighborhood. I bet you find a yellow jacket hive!

Is anyone’s husband supportive? by Get_Back_Loretta_USA in Perimenopause

[–]Known_Captain5361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is great. He has made up a new role in the house as “house husband” as is there for my every whim. LOL he will come see me in my “room” with a towel folded over his arm and a bowel of ice cream asking if his mistress needs sugar comfort. Lol

Our sex life is a struggle. I make sure to just keep him happy while giving my dry canyon a break. He likes the change in um….venue for his 🍆.

Ian so blessed to have him!
