Gen X trying to find relevance. I have a husband, 3 sons, and a best friend who lives too far away from me. Introvert who needs distance. No touching.

So our tailbones are just going to always hurt when we sit for the rest of our lives now? Is this not a problem others have?

It's been a great trip but I'm on my way home and I couldn't be happier.

I'm aboard an airplane about to embark on a 23 hour travel extravaganza, arriving at my destination in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. Pray for me to whichever God's you think are listening.

Well. It certainly matches my current mood. Find your own here: widget-club.com/wallpapers/t...
Birthday color chart mine is Elderberry. Which appears to a very deep plumber red almost black color. Possibly the same color as Elderberries. I don't know. It also claims my word is Loyalty.  And that I am faithful to the end, despise betrayal, and am stupidly devoted.

I also look at Chemtrails. When I'm laying in my hammock on a sunny day. I like when there are a lot of them and they cross over each other. Sometimes I take a deep breath in. Just in case.

My youngest is in his 4th year of an Engineering degree. He has 2 older brothers with degrees. I had no idea there was a parent's forum for colleges. University is their business, not mine.

My son's drs office uses ai for record keeping. And it's trying to kill him. My son is on anti-rejection meds. He's been running out well before the next refill recently. He thought his pharmacy had been shorting him. We've been paying cash price for a weeks worth of meds so he doesn't go without ⬇️

No cheating. Share the last photo of the sky from your camera roll (if you feel like it)

I was living on an Air Force base, so, news traveled pretty fast. It was my husband's second day back to work after paternity leave and he called me to tell me with enough time that I was able to turn on the TV in time to see the 2nd plane hit.

My son got a summer job this year, decent pay, full-time and even some over-time. For 4 weeks. Then they were hit with supply chain issues. I think he worked 5 or 6 days more before school started. And it wasn't like there were jobs aplenty and he could just find something else in July.

This is dumb. Journalists could go to Defense Contractors and get the same info. They know what is being requested by the pentagon and the urgency behind the orders. Whiskey Pete is in full panic mode and the info is out of his control now.

I stopped by my dentist's office this afternoon and the pediatrician next door had a measles outbreak sign on their door warning everyone they needed to be vax'ed to go inside. I kind of feel like they should have put the sign on the main door of the building since we all walk through the lobby.

An Animal Hospital near me posts jokes on a 2 sided marquee. Jokes on one side, punchline on the other. I always approach from the punchline side & have to guess the joke. It's Jeopardy Jokes. Anyway @kenjennings.bsky.social I though this would be a good idea for Celebrity Jeopardy: Comics edition.

I secured tickets to the SLC temple openhouse a year from now. I asked my historian son if he wanted to go and he was like, absolutely I want to go. He asked if it was a guided tour or if we could just wander around. My child, they don't even let recommend holders go wherever they want in temples.

Just thinking out loud. The best medicine money can buy can keep a failing body alive for YEARS, if it wants to. It can't really do much for a mushy brain, but as we've learned recently, heartbeat counts more than brainwaves these days. Just in case anyone thinks nature is going to save us.

My son turned 25 today and requested a SpongeBob themed cake. Because, what's funnier than 24... I aim to please.
Square cake with yellow frosting outlined in orange piping. In the top right corner is a squiggly pink flower outline. In the bottom left is the top half of Patrick Star smiling. And in the center, written in light blue: 25 YEARS LATER.

I'd like to congratulate Talarico on finding a topic everyone can get behind, hating Paxton for enabling puppy abuse. But also, I'd like to congratulate him on his new puppy, per section 4, paragraph 2 of the social contract, namely "you hold it, you buy it" when it comes to puppy allocation.

What people aren't understanding is the Bible says children should honor their Father (and mother (in special circumstances)) NOT that parents should honor their children /s /S! Bluesky. This is sarcasm. Do not take this post as a literal reading of my beliefs. Omg, please be normal about this.

Talking to my son about the reports from the Lincoln, his first question was, "how is the rest of the fleet?" Aircraft carries don't sail alone. Many ships have been at sea with her for 200+ days. It's good the conditions on other ships are being disclosed.

One of my children has received the vaccinations for Hep A, B, D, AND E. E. The one that isn't routinely available in the U.S. Because he has Autoimmune Hepatitis and his Dr really wants to keep it to just the one. I will forever be pro Hep Vax as early as possible. No one wants Hepatitis.

"30-50 feral hogs" has been a magnificent gift to our family lexicon. We've been able to justify just about anything on the backs of "30-50 ferel hogs" possibly emerging from the tree line.
