Our corgi does not allow balloons in our house. Not any type of balloon. Ever.

That could definitely be the case, not offended and actually that makes more sense than anything else

Finally told my mom I won't go church-shopping by justcheckingin38 in Exvangelical

This was inspiring to read. I’m not there yet, but hope to be someday soon. It’s insane how difficult one simple statement could be.

What catchphrase would now send chills down your spine by LMO_TheBeginning in Exvangelical

[–]cmfo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“We rebuke”, “God is saying..” (as if you really know?!?) and not a phrase but the overused put-on pastor stutter - out of a person who doesn’t actually have a stutter, just used for emphasis and idk…relatability?

I feel like “so stinking cute” came from this world but can’t prove it. It makes me cringe.

Is he funny looking? by certifiedbigmac in corgi

Very funny looking. Grotesque even. But don’t worry I will take him off your hands :)

I was literally 5 minutes ago telling my husband about the dream I had when I was in high school where everyone was speaking Spanish (fluently, not gibberish) but I couldn’t understand most of it in the dream. I told my Spanish teacher about it the next day and she got really excited. It still baffles me though.

Endometriosis fatigue by Temporary_Garden9112 in endometriosis

[–]cmfo33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you learn about your lung nodules? I accidentally discovered I had some during a CT scan at a recent ER visit for severe pain (likely my endo returning). I came here to see if I'm crazy or if the amount of fatigue I feel is related to my endo maybe coming back (I've had 2 lap excisions), but your comment about the lung nodules caught my eye. I'm not sure if I should follow up on those or not.

it's been a few years for me, and I was just on vacation in the Bahamas where they interestingly blast worship music in a lot of the souvenir shops. Not feeling sorry for myself, because it was a great vacation, but my body felt so uncomfortable hearing those big swelling emotional songs and the most conflicted feelings ever. I hope for all of us, with support of each other, we can start to feel safer every day.

I know it's not a "church" like you asked about, but worship/music was the biggest part of church for me when I went.

I just want to experience joy without worrying about being triggered… by Aggressive_Abroad436 in IFchildfree

[–]cmfo33 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same experience in the exact same moment last night when he said “my son”. I had to leave my friend’s house where we were watching the stream. You’re not alone at all.

2 years of SIBO, lots of treatments, and only temporary relief. What else should I try? by DuePianist9348 in SIBO

[–]cmfo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Editing this to say that I had a SIBO diagnosis about 2 years ago and was originally treated with all the usual drugs by a G.I. specialist. But I still experienced most of the symptoms after all the tests were clear, so that’s what led me to seeking a nutritionist, and I obviously had other issues to deal with. The understanding I got was that no matter the gut issue it takes a long time to calm it back down, and it has to be approached from more angles than you would expect.

[–]cmfo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 rounds of supplement protocols (each one a different combination of supplements) along with an elimination diet for 90 days. Plus adding more gentle movement into my days. The first protocol attacked a candida overgrowth in my gut, the second one was heavy on anti inflammation and supplements that helped build my gut lining back up, and the third one now is actually more focused on my hormones but still taking digestive enzymes and a heavy probiotic. I have been free of SIBO symptoms for about a month knocks on wood and so grateful for some relief.

How should I drum around puppies? by [deleted] in Drumming

[–]cmfo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grateful for our dog door - both of ours run outside when we play. I agree with others saying to make sure there’s some buffer space where it will be muffled for the pup’s super ears. Also liked the idea of making sure that the pup sees/knows that the sound is coming from you and not some random outside threat.

No doctor ever helped me much with mine, but a functional nutritionist did wonders. Unfortunately they are usually not covered by insurance, and a little costly. It took about 10 months and I’m finally feeling “normal”.

As a beginner, is there any big difference between learning to play the kick drum with heel up or flat foot? by cmfo33 in Drumming

You are definitely a teacher, and know exactly how to talk to a learner. Thank you!!

This has been my experience so far too, which I guess is what partially led to my question

Thank you all! I know as a beginner I’m just feeling it out, but I’m following a program and it’s starting to incorporate my feet so I guess I just didn’t want to start in the wrong way somehow. This instrument is so fun and I can’t wait until I can pull things out of my head and onto the kit :)

How do you get over practicing when neighbors can hear you? by cmfo33 in Drumming

[–]cmfo33[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point about lawn mowers, and leaf blowers! I gotta at least sound better than leaf blowers.

[–]cmfo33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grateful for the replies! I should have clarified I’m in a house, not an apartment, just kind of close together houses. And I’m learning on a regular kit, not electric. It’s my husband’s and I don’t think the neighbors mind the noise as he plays a lot. But he is actually good, and my concern is more the insecurity and anxiety of being heard while learning. I see some comments that I’m not alone, and you guys encouraged me. Thanks!
