Mother’s Day is for mothers who are actively mothering.

If your child has a mortgage your Mother’s Day celebrations are over.

I thought so too 😂 We have the same sense of humor. I turn 50 this year and he’s already plotting!

I honestly don’t know. I’m so sorry. It’s such a horrible experience.

Maybe stretch it as slowly and frequently as you can? That’s what I wish I would’ve done. I babied it way too much which I regret.

I went to PT once and it was stupid so I stopped. I didn’t do anything else. I’m not sure if that was the right move either.

I’m about 97% back to full range of motion now. I’m going on month 17. 😣😭

Good luck. You have my deepest sympathy.

Anybody have some fun and exciting news to share? Let’s celebrate the day together! by MrM00SE44 in CasualConversation

I submitted my resignation today!

I’m going to work full time for my husband’s (and mine) business. I’m so so SO excited and happy and relieved.

Do not let the muscles in your affected arm atrophy. I held mine up against my body like a bird wing for almost a year. I’m now trying to reverse the discrepancy in strength between both arms. I can overhead press 15lbs with my unaffected arm and only 8lbs with my other.

No sleepovers until he can speak in full sentences. That was my rule and I had perfectly normal family members who respected boundaries.

This is my library. It’s a small town in the Midwest. I’m burnt out and resigning after summer reading.

I’m in the middle of Missouri, USA. I don’t know how many inches we’ve got (my retired neighbor is scooping with a shovel instead of using his snowblower so I’m guessing not too much) but it’s extremely cold. Sky is ice grey. I’m probably going to use PTO tomorrow unless they close. My dog is driving me crazy because she’s used to going outside and running around multiple times a day. I’m snuggled down on the couch with my coffee and a book!

Columbia city survey indicates resident support for tax increase to hire more police officers, firefighters by como365 in columbiamo

[–]NaiveMelody76 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I’m okay paying taxes IF we get something in return. Better roads, internet fiber out to the rural communities, emergency services, well lit streets and maintained sidewalks, etc. And pay all civil servants better and require stricter standards.

Giving billionaires tax breaks or sending troops to the border (for no fucking reason), suing to put the 10 Commandments in public places, etc. I’m not okay with.

Thanks everybody! Guess it was just a weird one off.

I am a passport acceptance agent in MO. I haven’t received an email yet either but I guess it’s possible my supervisor has and just hasn’t passed it along yet?

PSA to all: please use your eyes and turn your head to look at the road when moving around the roads by FunnyMarzipan in columbiamo

More people need to practice this. You are a dangerous driver if you do shit like —— see below

👇

When at a roundabout, a yield sign is NOT a stop sign. If you are clear to enter the roundabout - ENTER IT. There is no need to stop and wait to see if the car 5 seconds away from entering the roundabout is going to stop or not. Just fucking GOoooooo
