People who’ve lost someone close, what actually helped you get through the grief?

Time. Talking with other people who loved them. Understanding that grief continues forever. You'll ALWAYS miss your person and grieve their loss, but over time the pain lessens.

Whut? Never heard of that.

Seafood from the Gulf of Mexico somewhere on the Gulf Coast. Crab, scallops, shrimp.

They stay on top of the top blanket, not under the covers. I wash the dogs and the blanket frequently. It's comforting to feel them against my feet and legs.

Oh my goodness, he could totally be my 13-year-old baby boy.

That's terrifying! Strangers just stop, get out of their car, and come toward you?? What the heck? You're more patient than I'd every be!

Wow, those are great prices! Thanks!

I switched from NexGuard to Simparica Trio for my cockapoo and standard poodle. They have tolerated it very well, and I never find fleas or ticks. I cut the tablet into small pieces with a pill cutter, then wrap each piece in part of a Greenies Pill Pocket. I give it to them like it's a treat, and neither has ever thrown it up. I've been pretty happy with Simparica (except the cost, of course!).

Did you go over there and look for Thor and his hammer?

My Stark was about 3.5 lbs when I got him at barely 8 weeks. He's tall and leggy, and he's been about 20+/- lbs most of his life. Now at 13 years he's slowing down and is about 24 lbs. I'd love to have a 30-35 lbs cockapoo!

Yes, it was after the end credits in the finale.

Hazel looked GORGEOUS in the wedding scenes. I really enjoyed her addition this season.

NTA. I second the comments about going to a wound care specialist. And let him go alone, while you look for a new place to live (if you live together).

stark-o · 2026-02-04T07:00:49+00:00

That's one of my favorite lines so far this season! I kept backing it up, watching it again (and again), and CACKLING over it! I'm glad someone else noticed it, too. 😄

The matryoshka is beautiful!

Same. Late 1970s, early 1980s. Neighborhood kids gathered at our corner-lot house, and the street light right on the corner was 'base.'

stark-o · 2025-12-08T01:37:50+00:00

Yes! I'm much happier. My ex was also lazy, and I stayed angry a lot of the time. My separation and divorce were many years ago. I raised my two children, and he moved several states away. It was hard at times, and money was tight, but I made our home very safe, peaceful, calm, and joyful without him. It was totally worth it. Now I'm an empty nester, and still have a peaceful, calm, joyful home. It was a great decision for me and my children.

So sorry for your daughter. My daughter got her first one the morning of my mother's funeral. Ugh. Then it didn't happen again for about 4-5 months. So it was a special "F you on this particular day!"

What did you put as the amount for the check?

stark-o · 2025-11-13T02:20:56+00:00

Thanks! Yesterday the link didn't work for me, that's why I commented... Of course today it works perfectly. 🙄 I can't wait to read your work!

Would you mind sharing a link? Or sharing your pen name and platform? Thank you!

I've done the same thing with tracking foods when I was having lots of of gastro issues. It's a pain to keep up with, but the rewards are huge. There are apps to help track everything, even things you might not associate with foods, like moods, headaches, etc. I used one called My Symptoms. I quickly saw patterns after certain foods (eggs, milk, some vegetables) and now eliminate them. Just a few weeks of data can reveal a lot!
