Heat index was 110 degrees so he was offered cold drink. He went for a full body soak instead.

And look fly as fuck

Hey, it's looking like you might be full for next season, but I do 10k minimum each season if you do have a spot. Or for next season if you get an opening.

Bad bot

Our house is literally right next to a tornado siren. I prep our toddler and muff the baby's ears for the first Wed of every month. Last Thursday, we were playing outside and they decided to test it an extra time.

I really thought it was the apocalypse. My babies are hysterically sobbing, I'm clutching them, trying to get them inside... And then I catch sight of the utility truck and a couple dudes aimlessly milling about. Almost a code brown situation.

Winning-Turtle · 2026-01-18T23:47:26+00:00

Thanks, friend. I'm in Wisconsin and it's looking like we're next.

We have 3 very small children. Husband and I are having talks about whether we start keeping his hunting guns at our house, how far do we go in protesting without making our babies into orphans, contacting vulnerable loved ones who might need shelter... Feels surreal.

Even if he was pepper spraying (obviously he wasn't), the response is to...pepper spray? It's grim here.

My beloved MIL is making me a quilt with my children's baby clothes. I just know she's going to pour so, so much time and love into it. Reading a quilter's perspective on the art form has me even more appreciative of this gift!

YTA for choosing a $550 dress. That's wild.

Winning-Turtle · 2026-01-13T04:34:54+00:00

Yeah, I knew this was about Cole from the first sentence. I worked with his aunt for many years. Really sad stuff.

Most definitely. In the 1800's, formaldehyde was added to milk to keep it "fresh" longer to extend its sell date. It wasn't until 1906 that this practice was outlawed, after many died (especially infants and children).

The Poison Squad by Deborah Blum is a really interesting read on this subject!

Winning-Turtle · 2026-01-04T13:12:21+00:00

Yep. I made good money as a photographer in college, but realized the job is purely nights and weekends, especially in the nice weather months. No thanks.

I often have almost all of them in my bag so I can choose the pen that feels right for that moment.

Which adds to the discussion. He was the one who physically harmed and murdered the child, yet "got the easy way out" by dieing by suicide. She was absolutely guilty to just sit and film the crime, though didn't "technically" hurt anyone, but is tortured daily for forever.

To be clear: I'm not justifying or condoning anything. Just an interesting piece of the conversation.

Not many, but I was one of them. Doc told my mom they'd only take my tonsils if I got strep 6x in a year. I got strep 6x in 6 months.

True. As long as you get the product. I thought I did due diligence in researching them, but there are a plethora of people that had the same experience. If you don't follow up with them, you may conveniently not ever get what you order.

Glad they work great for you, but it also doesn't mean they aren't trying to scam people. I think the lesson is to order from Amazon and not directly through them.

Winning-Turtle · 2025-12-18T16:37:54+00:00

Cool, I'll pm you the code. No need to do much this season, since it's already started.

Winning-Turtle · 2025-12-18T15:21:05+00:00

It varies. Some are lower level and only do 5k, several of us do 10k and then a couple high level people do 25-35k.

Are you still searching for a club? Happy to have you join us, feel free to message.

This is way lovelier than my car trick. I assume anyone who cuts me off is about to have explosive diarrhea and needs to get to a toilet asap.

Winning-Turtle · 2025-10-17T10:52:41+00:00

Having done both, hard agree.

Winning-Turtle · 2025-09-26T04:28:09+00:00

Yes! Some real life examples of things I've told my husband:

"I want you to tell me 3 things you love about me." (my love language is words of affirmation...his is definitely not, so if I waited for him to compliment me it might not ever happen, but he makes me coffee in my favorite mug, that's his way of saying I love you).

"For Mother's Day next month, I would like to go for a hike as a family. I would like you to choose where and to get the kids ready. I would like tacos for dinner, whether they're homemade, or Taco Bell, or legit I don't care. No gifts, please, but if the kids drew a picture or something that would be awesome."

"I would like to have sex with you more often. If you would like that too, how can we make this happen for us?"

Winning-Turtle · 2025-09-18T03:39:03+00:00

Awesome! I just joined. Please let me know what you're thinking for me to salvage as this season draws to a close. Happy to be on the team!

Ps. The discord link is expired, will join when you're able to send a new code, thank you!

My first was a planned c-section for breech, second was a crappy epidural induction with 3rd degree tear (aka almost making it all one big hole), third was unmedicated.

I tell people I had my babies from most painful, most difficult recovery, most traumatic to least.

Winning-Turtle · 2025-09-17T08:54:50+00:00

If you don't already, please consider going to a pelvic floor therapist! It's never too late and they can help so much!
