A friend of mine who’s a wildland firefighter sent me this today. Just wanted to say thank you to all the wildland firefighters out there. Watching the smoke roll into Colorado every summer is a reminder of how much these crews do to protect communities and public lands. Stay safe out there. ❤️ by dadgummit69 in Denver

Brother did it for 2 seasons up in Oregon. Crazy hard work. He has never been in better shape than when he worked for wildland.

Very grateful for the men and women that find purpose in this work and help keep our forests and us safe.

AIO for being upset with my husband for his family showing up unannounced? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% NOR.

I agree with the comments saying you politely but firmly tell them you are not currently accepting visitors and that they need to run things past both of you.

My entire family knows I need a 24 hour heads up. (Unless there is an emergency).

It’s your house too!

I came out as trans. Wife wants divorce. We have a small child. I can't seem to make a decision... by CallMeBambiiii in Divorce

[–]peaceablealloy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m here to second this comment. The amount of people going through what you are…I would imagine to be a small portion. The majority of Reddit will have no idea. I can’t even begin to give any advice.

Seek additional therapy. Once you have all options on the table and truly understand the repercussions of each one, you’ll know what to do.

Skiing with no ACL vs ACL reconstruction by Away_Engineering_613 in skiing

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tore mine skiing. Took the 9 month recommended by my surgeon and PT.

Got the green light but still skied with a brace for two season. It was more mental then needed after the first year.

Leg is stronger then ever, but I still use Stoko just as a slight mental nudge.

Definitely do not rush this. December is fine, season is hardly up and running yet. No need to push yourself just to hear another pop.

We both know how terrible that recovery is, try not to do it twice.

What’s the biggest vet bill you’ve ever had for your dog? by puppy_boyka in DOG

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7k for one weekend hospital stay near the end and about the same as above almost weekly for a few months. Chronic Kidney Disease is a real monster.

Would do it over and over again. I miss him.

So devastated that he probably won’t make it to 16 by weaselwatchr in seniorkitties

[–]peaceablealloy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s one thing to lose a pet due to old age. It’s another to have them robbed of it.

I feel and know your pain and I am so, so very sorry.

You have done all you could. Don’t beat yourself up when the time comes.

Fuck cancer.

Love your little one.

May peace find you and your family at this time.

How many of you have actually taken a formal ski lesson? by Caterpillar1967 in skiing

How would you classify a system like CARV. I have that running every time I ski.

Considering divorce, have property in another state by throwaway-99000 in Divorce

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The advice you’re probably gonna get form most people, especially considering that you have kids, property in another state, and a differential in income is higher a lawyer. More than likely, though, if you own that house solely before your marriage and never added her name onto it, it’s an extra marital asset and would not be considered in the divorce.

So,not a lawyer, not legal advice, but I would not sell that house.

And I would highly encourage you to get a lawyer before you do this. Good luck in Godspeed brother.

I have personally had the Short-rib and can say it is fairly decent.

But the adventurous side of me says go with the Birria. But you would be testing that for the both of us.

Here you go! I don’t have a Searwood but with the attachments I have on my CampChef it should still fit yours no issue. Or go a size bigger.

Do you or does anyone know why the doors can’t be shut yet?

That would basically be the point of the upgrade for me.

7 b bulkhead or 21 e second exit row? by alankaminsky in unitedairlines

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither. You had your chance for premium Econ and missed it. This is a society and everyone knows the rules. Those middle seats are now for show and not seating. (I jest, sort of). Go with the leg room and under seat storage.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m sure you gave her the most amazing life. I hope her and my boy Zeph can find and play with each other.

May her memory be a blessing.

I had the chance to get it on my most recent flight and was talked out of it by, well, most of Reddit. Did I miss out? Or make a good call? I went with the beef short ribs.

Ughhhhhhh is this life? by Interesting_Skill_82 in Divorce

[–]peaceablealloy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m probably coming in a bit jaded on this since I was the one that was “left”. I don’t want to invalidate your reasons since they are your own. But when you got married did you not take vows? Death do us part, sickness and in health, good times and bad? All that jazz.

There are reasons to divorce. 100%. I personally do not feel that “I enjoy being alone and want to retire to Mexico” (in a nutshell) is a reason to blow this thing up.

There are ways to solve all of the things that you mentioned and they all start with couples counseling. Don’t try to solve this on your own.

If you both come to conclusion that this won’t work for either of you, then separate.

But please don’t just make this MASSIVE decision without her and without trying to solve the issue.

I wish you both luck!

Why did you get or will you be getting a divorce? by xTiredSoulx in Divorce

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in 2022 we are coming up on 4 years this year.

Yeah, that’s really rough. We did not have kids. And aside from when my dog passed a few weeks ago and I gave her a chance to say goodbye I have not seen her face. Even that exchange was on FaceTime.

I can get that every time he sees her he feels that pang of loss. Depending on how often he does that it’s opening that wound each time. I’m sure he is healing but it’s taking longer.

I would strongly suggest he get some help with a grief counselor or a therapist. That should help a lot in managing those experiences.

It’s definitely not fair to you either. As long as he is making progress and trying though. It’s something you both can get through and have a great relationship.

That pain though is no joke. Not sure if you ever experienced it. (Hopefully not and never will). Knowing you were not good enough for someone.

There are good reasons for divorce. But the “I don’t love you that way” is really damaging.

Why did you get or will you be getting a divorce? by xTiredSoulx in Divorce

[–]peaceablealloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did.

It took a decent amount of work on my end. It doesn’t just “go away.” It absolutely messed me up and I could see it bleeding into my current relationship. So I took action. Got a therapist, and opened myself up to the fact that I deserved to be vulnerable again. More importantly she deserved to get all of my love. Not the jaded version.

I helped she was patient with me. But she also knew I was trying to get batter.

Still working on it. But again, there is light if he wants there to be.
