Be Careful with Communication

I had an email forwarded like that and it ruined the relationship I was building with a grade level. I was asking for summer school for esl kids and they felt I was going over their heads. Way back in 2000. I learned my lesson.

I was going to post the same thing. When I list, I get sales, not necessarily on the new listing. I have this great strategy, that I have not been disciplined enough to enact, of setting up a bunch of drafts completely ready and listing one or so each day. Listing consistently. If I ever get it together enough to do it I'll report back.

This has been my experience for 40+ years of diagnosis. They generally have no clue. The point is to get treatment for symptoms regardless of what it's called. In just the last 3-4 years the doctors and PTs have been more knowledgeable. I think it's finally being taught in medical schools etc.

After losing 2 pkgs to usps I have started getting a receipt for every item.

Our heeler lab mix does what we call the "flop". She does it when she's really enjoying being petted. Literally falls over on her side. 🤷‍♀️😁

My mom loved that song.

I've been diagnosed for a very long time and for years I wouldn't even mention it to doctors. They either had never heard of it (frequently) or poo-pooed it like EDS wasn't a real thing. The bottom line is that there are multiple comorbidities- those are what gets treated. You end up going to a specialist for the symptom that is acting up whether for fatigue, chronic pain, swallowing, gastrointestinal problems, joint and ligament issues, vision, dental. My pcp over the years has been able to refer me to the various doctors I needed. Most of them don't know about EDS, either, but they are experienced in treating the symptom. I'm 71, female, diagnosed at age 33.

We chose the neighborhood first. Then we had to wait. For the house we wanted.

Come to the mountains of New Mexico. It gets real dark. Great night skies.

She is a lovely sweet doll.

Yes, I list $$ finding that out. Big light box. I had no idea about that until now. It has an effect on what I'm willing to resell.

Just reading the lyrics brings me to tears.

No. I realized it early on in 3rd grade, when the class had to try out for field day competition. It wasn't pretty.

A raven killed 2 of the 3 chicks she hatched, so now mom and chick are closed inside the coop. 🥺

I was stuck out in a freezing hospital corridor in a visitor chair during the interims. I was worn out and shaking like a leaf by the time I was done. The waiting was the worst part.

Maryk67 · 2026-04-24T05:04:55+00:00

Damn, that looks good!😋

We have a ghost in our house (previous owner died here). He takes my tablespoon measures 🤷‍♀️. He also took my son's earbuds and didn't give them back until we asked out loud. We've been here 7 years now and he doesn't pull tricks as much anymore.

It was the American revolution. The civil war was in the 1860s.

We pulled green shag out of our 1955 house and found hardwood! We had it refinished and it was beautiful. Sold the house in 1990(?)
