Drunk texting @amby.bsky.social is second only to being drunk in person with her

I went to law school because he didn’t have a door on his house growing up, only made it through fifth grade, and literally broke his back working hard while not making enough money to properly feed everyone (resulting in heart issues I am convinced happened due to malnourishment).

Because he wasn’t afraid of heights, he’d cover welding sometimes on his job sites. Ended up with enough hours for certifications but didn’t get it because he didn’t “need” it. He’d find the problem in the building plans and fix it for the highly paid office workers, then he’d go build it.

Despite his pain, he taught me how to do long division on a magna-doodle on his porch swing, how to reload ammo because it was so much cheaper than just buying fresh ammo, and a bunch of silly sayings and songs. He had a very goofy side & would play hide and seek in clothing racks with me at Walmart

Papaw loved masonry work. He took great pride in it and he missed it when he couldn’t do it anymore. The last decades of his life were spent in so much pain and at the end it was so heartbreaking to see his body give up while his mind was perfect.

I remember when @bexcommunicated.bsky.social said that people showing videos of Animal Crossing builds were playing a different game. I just had that feeling seeing what people are making on Dressmaker. Even if I was using a regular mouse, my brain does not work that way!

Struggling to get myself to do ANYTHING lately, but I am on my way to tap class and I am REALLY proud of myself for that.

Yes, AND all the judge had to do was say, “In the future, remember that I expect attorneys to appear in jackets.”

Thank you so so much! I have literally only heard of bad monkey so this is exactly why I needed to consult an expert.

I have definitely daydreamed about having a craft shop bc of stuff like this! I feel like you could find a pretty good middle ground for what to stock that covers the necessities for projects plus some thoughtful extras to provide a satisfying enough selection for most people.

I just read this and then thought, “I should totally ask Brian to tell me which TV show to watch.” There’s just too much to choose from and I’m stuck. The only thing I don’t want is something relentlessly heavy because life is hard. Got a few suggestions in case I’ve seen some?! Thank you!

I’d be hollering at everyone bc it says AND PLAYS on Saturdays and the $125 is for a “second day of play.” If you don’t have a first day of play, you can’t have a second one!

Kayla’s Version @kaylasversion.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
It says “practices and plays” though? And then second day of play during the week for the $125?

Grocery shopped at Aldi while hungry, so I spent the same amount and got more stuff 🥴

OMG I just remembered this story: last week Casson asked me what the holiday coming up next weekend was. I was so confused until he said the Jewish one and then I connected it. He asked if we did anything for it 😂 my little buddy

Started to think, “I don’t want to sleep my day away” and then realized that’s ridiculous. Where’s the downside?

Yesterday Casson saw a guy smoking outside of the airport and was like, “Ew.” We discussed the evils of smoking. He said, “And we have to keep the earth clean.” Then he immediately started singing Earth Song ☠️ kids are hilarious

It always cracks me up to see parents walking their kids to school with an open mug of coffee. It’s like wearing your house slippers out into the gross world.

Grateful to be in the right place at the right time, to be helpful, and to snuggle a precious little buddy. I had been feeling a little run down, so I think it was more for me than for them 😆

We’re at the aquarium and stopped by the play area to let the kids burn off energy. I sat beside a mom feeding her 4 month old twins. I said it looks like she had things in hand but I was happy to help if I could. She asked if I wanted to hold a baby. YES IN FACT I DID WANT BABY SNUGS THANK YOU. 🥰🥰🥰

Happy to message about stress relief and nervous system work any time! It’s hard sometimes bc it takes time to see a difference but I could tell it was paying off on this vacation and I’m so grateful. I hope you see positive effects soon!

Walks are awesome! Proud of you for working to lower stress levels. I highly recommend Ally Boothroyd’s yoga nidra. Once I got in a routine of doing it regularly, I realized it was helping especially when I didn’t do it for a week or so.

I had corn fritters and corn chowder and salad and then dove into a pot pie. Ernie had the chicken fried steak and sides. Had to take my blackberry cobbler (included in the meal) to go. 😅

First vacation dinner and I ate so much my belly is throwing off my center of gravity when I walk, like a good Appalachian.

My bestie is a creative genius and her kids are turning 7 and 11 this month. They are have a 7-11 themed party and this is their mini-mart. She is so talented it’s truly disgusting.

The second act is so hard in both fiction and real life. The journey can be a slog, the meaning unclear, the purpose shaky. You have to go on faith and there are no guarantees. The small wins are absolutely vital.

Also, it’s so great to go back and rewatch shows when you get some distance and think about the general public reception of a season. I know a lot of people thought s2 was meh but it was written in a really smart way. People also think that the show is too saccharine but there’s a lot of pain too.

I’m rewatching Ted Lasso and I’ve binged season 2 this week and man, it’s an excellent way to process all of my strong feelings about my own life. Like I can feel what the episode is trying to convey and my body is like “ohhhh yes needed to feel this.”

So while I definitely understand the skepticism about chiros in general and would definitely be cautious myself, holy crap am I grateful for her 😂

Kayla’s Version @kaylasversion.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
It’s interesting because I’ve seen others worried about the same but I haven’t seen that phrasing around here. My functional doc is an MD. Although incidentally, many years ago a chiro legitimately helped me, and then my mom, with painful issues that no one else figured out but she caught.
