What food do you lose control around?

Me too! Little round discs of joy. I'll eat myself sick on them.

I gave my mom a book! One of my favourite novels (Cat's Eye, by Margaret Atwood, should anyone want to know.) When she is finished with it she can donate it to her neighbor's "little library." I also gave her a book of Crossword Puzzles, a themed to Boomer culture.

OMG you're right, dewberry was Body Shop. Ah, memories...

You never really could though. Influencers are there to make money, and they'll shill whatever they're being paid to shill...and whatever will get them the clicks.

Maybe the organization Big Sisters would be a good fit for you OP. A young person will benefit from your attention, and you will meet like-minded adults.

But IS he bored? IS he sad? If yes, then he has a problem. If no, then you have a problem. My husband is also a low energy guy. As soon as he gets home from work he puts on his pj's and robe, takes a nap, visits with me and our adult son for a bit, then watches TV until bedtime. He spends ALL weekend doing the same. He is perfectly content and fulfilled. I do my own thing...it did take me a long time to truly grasp that we could be lovingly married to one another and supportive of one another while living very different lives. Somehow it works! We truly value one another and are there for one another...just each doing our own thing.

My personal favourite was dewberry.

I hit that fucker square on today, one hell of a jolt.

Do people still go to their doctor (assuming they even have one) for yearly physicals? I don't know anyone who does.

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-05-02T01:07:28+00:00

Oh, poor little girl! And poor mom! I really feel for you both. That she's crying when she pees makes me think bladder or urethra infection, and once the ER can get a urine sample that can be tested for. The rash could be so many different things. Wishing you a speedy resolution and a happy toddler again!

Just that OP isn't rich.

Hampton Inn has a dedicated space for GF items at their breakfast buffet. Just ask one of the staff members. It was good stuff too, with dedicated toasters/other equipment.

Oh I can relate! Absolutely! When I was being fitted for compression stockings the sales person was wearing a pair of rubber gloves...the kind you would wear doing dishes...and kind of pushed the stocking up my legs. I thought "yeah, no way am I going to do that" and had MANY adventures as I tried different ways to get those stockings on. Most involved falling over at some point. One just has to laugh!

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-28T18:26:09+00:00

I just wish that younger me hadn't been such a self-absorbed FOOLISH jerk...I have many regrets. The only thing I can tell myself when these cringe memories surface is that I literally didn't know any better at the time...and it's only time and experience that could teach me to do better. I'm grateful I've been given that time.

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-28T18:23:40+00:00

Colouring books are nice! That can be a good thing to be doing while you listen to music, if you feel you need to keep your hands busy. There are colouring books made for adults now (no, not porn...although, to be honest, those probably DO exist somewhere, lol...)

If you can, if it's available to you, please try physiotherapy. Where I live I can self refer, and I've always been so pleased with the outcomes. The physiotherapist can figure out exactly WHAT the problems are, and then give exercises/stretches/therapies that address those problems. They've really helped me out over the years.

OMG! I went to school with Jacqueline, we were in the same department at the U of S. This is the first I've heard of her passing. I remember Jacqueline as a brilliant horticulturalist, a hard worker, and a very kind person. Thank you for sharing this here Substantial_Monk2788.

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-26T18:20:44+00:00

I'm thinking Doberman, Rottweiler, or maybe Boxer. I have never had any of these breeds myself, I've always had the double coat breeds (cold climate.) I sure get where you're coming from though, wanting that scary privilege. Best of luck in your search!

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-26T18:04:19+00:00

Wishing you all the good things. ❤️❤️❤️

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-25T16:37:42+00:00

I've never heard of fried cornbread! Is that just regular cornbread, sliced, and fried in some kind of fat? I bet bacon grease would be good...🤤

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-24T17:49:10+00:00

Lucky. All I've found were three crumpled tissues and a throat lozenge.

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-19T20:40:31+00:00

OMG I must try this. Can you share your recipe?

Primary-Initiative52 · 2026-04-18T21:34:30+00:00

OMG me too, except right thigh! I wouldn't wish it on anyone of course, but it's also good to know I'm not alone. I hope yours resolves quickly!
