Oh dear. I don’t like to give advice but i discovered something in my 50s that made the BS less significant. I finally realized that “I” needed to be put at the top of the list. You are the most important person to yourself. More than anyone else. It’s a hard thing because we are taught our entire life that everyone and everything else is more important. I spend money on me trainer coaches etc because i feel better. I’ve had the heart attack’s the stent and Missk love yourself first and foremost because your worth it.

Morning...
Got up early for a no-show and have an appointment over lunch, so no nap today
How's everyone else doing? Let's check in and see...

That is one tired kitteh!!
Feline FAFO moment in action, folks!!

I was "grey rocking" my narcissistic mother before I ever knew what grey rocking was!

Grey Rock the boat
Grey Rock it out, baby
Musically wired brain? Or crossed wires?

Thanks for this, Likes. So, it seems there are some who will have to change their avatars. I think I'll just leave mine alone until I'm told I need to change it.

I don't see any nudity in your avatar. If I were in charge? Green light.

standing Pilates

Is that like Chair Yoga? Interesting

Did you at least get a bedazzled one? ️

OMG I'm here for that awkward, almost cringe sitcom episode... The Bedazzled Burka

You need to get one for your Goddess!

One day, ill have a conversation here lol

Hang in there... you've been maybe 20-30 minutes away from prime opportunities
It'll happen

Something about bare boobies... someone ink know (me) has to change her awesome avatar

(Taps) I miss that avatar already
But - I do like this one, too

Well looky here @Lilianna23 .. we're both here at the same time..
Yippee

PAAAAAR-Tay!

Nah..ur good..
I'm ok
My mom just passed away so I'm dealing with the coulda thoughts...we had a complicated relationship..
But I'm healthy and ok
How are u my sweet friend

I'm so sorry, Kathy. Regardless of the relationship, losing mom is never easy.

Here's a picture of my lower deck. Springtime! It's overrun with clematis, roses, and honeysuckle. There are chairs and a table under all that! I love how wild it is! ️

I'm envisioning an episode of The Outer Limits... that garden looks... hungry

Oh, honey! I'm so sorry! I understand complicated mom relationships. I had one of those, too.

Hi, my name is Likes and I'm in the Complicated Mother Club, too

But before I go... what's ur opinion on this?

Hmm, Dolly Parton is her godmother... and 7th cousin.
Both have lovely voices and can carry this song well.
I think an unplanned video of them both talking about the song and their covers of it would be interesting. Must also bring an extra layer to their relationship, too.

I got to 3 am when my tendinitis flared. Got up, took ibuprofen and some little food to not irritate the stomach. Waiting for the ibuprofen to work along with the heating pad.

I hate nights like that... and there were several after each of my knee replacements (which is different than a tendonitis flare but similar pain and loss of sleep). I hope the PT helps reduce these episodes for you.

Well stress test was…more stressful than I remember.
I was supposed to hit 138 bpm…I got to 136…and ran out of gas!
One thing was established…I’m out of shape! . I need a trainer…get dedicated like OM…

I hope they accept your numbers and you get good results back.
I struggled to get my heart rate up where they needed but kept going because I really did not want to do the chemical version of the test.

Anyone heard of root inoculation
My husband just found out about it
It’s supposed to stimulate root growth
It’s strong 1 tsp per 25 gallons of water
Expensive but is supposed to increase your yield
Over 200 pounds per plant
I’ll let you know how it works

Not familiar with this area of study... but Google had some suggestions

root inoculation for increased growth and yield (Google Scholar results)

Have you ever heard of Bobby floyd?

This Bobby Floyd?

Well- my day has perked up
The No Show finally showed - 3 hours later than planned
My appointment? One and Done IYKYK
Even had time to pick up a bag of produce plus a sushi roll for lunch - an expensive bag but still

CDCD Everyone!!

Looking around, it's nice to have a 50+ thread!

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

Thoughts about recent posts:
Scottish lineage- yes my mother was a Campbell!
Complicated parental relationships- mother and sister had that and so did my late wife and her mother. I sided with my sister and my late wife every time whenever I was drawn in. I always supported them as both mothers were narcissists and placed sons on pedestals.
Air quality- not good here at all.
Adult orphan - for 20 years and still miss dad.

Have a good evening and see you in the morning.

The Shoulda Coulda Game sucks. For me? I write 'em out in a list - then think about how I can do better with the next time, next person.
Yeah, I'm a List Person

Hi, you look new here! Let me be the welcoming committee:

There looks to be some new folks in the group...

We run this thread a little differently.

Read the first post...goes over the "rules" so to speak.

I will summarize:
1. No religion
2. No politics
3. No drama
4. No hitting on the women-- dm the person if interested.... if they don't respond.... there is your answer.
5. For God sake read a profile before you dm the wrong person.
6. If your first post is heavy on the innuendo ..... you need to slow your roll

This thread is like the bar cheers or the corner coffee shop. We are FRIENDS here and not like other threads...we are fiercely protective of the vibe and each other. If this sounds like a place you would like, stick around.... if not there are eleventy billion other threads that will suit your needs.

To get an idea of the vibe I would scroll through the last 10 pages or so and you will see.

Thanks to Miss K for this!

Adult orphan - for 20 years and still miss dad.

Realizing both parents and/or parental figures in your life are gone... hits differently and harder in many ways. Each loss is unique, but parents? Ouch

Apparently these are an unusual lilac. If you look closely they have double flowers...

One more obstacle to mow around!
