Just graduated at 39. Studied whilst working full time and raising a kid. At my graduation my kid looked at me and said "I'm so proud of you Mummy". That was the moment that made it worth it.
I'm not sure if you've ever seen the fire analogy for chronic illness - where everything in the room is on fire and you're prioritising what needs to be put out first. This type of therapy is great because it gives you an extinguisher for a really small fire which is in your way and allows you to turn your attention to the bigger fire. But sometimes there's fire that you just learn to live with, but you can put a shield up so it doesn't burn you, but it's still there.
You forgot to spin on the spot with it in your mouth to mix it.
That's my mum. I'm doing a lot of work breaking through her rules which have governed my life.
I make my 4yo mini charcuterie for dinner when I have no spoons left.
When I renovate my kitchen I'm putting in 2 dishwashers. No more unloading, use clean from one and put into the other and continue the cycle.
But that's a waste of metal...
Yup! If the alternative is that you wouldn't eat, then it's better to eat the components of a meal if cooking is too hard right now
No that's a snart
He went to primary school with my mum's best friend lol
I'm dreading my 43rd birthday. Because then I would have lived longer without my beloved grandfather than I did with him.
My theory is that it was 68 complaints and the people working at AdStandards put in the last one
Australia - no idea if the full ad is on YouTube or something. I don't even know the ad cause I don't watch normal TV
I was trying to figure out if the house or the Lego was worth more. Think it's the Lego.
Have a tortie. Can confirm the tortitude is a real thing.
You can now, er, bone the grim reaper and have it's babies
I just can't deal with the fact Penn's kid is named Moxie CrimeFighter...
Welp, I'm stupid. Took me reading the comments to realise why they were mocking, my brain was like omg why haven't I tried that...
Business, majoring in HR (don't hate me lol). I fell into a career and now getting the degree to support that I know what I'm doing after 15+ years of actual experience
Thank you internet stranger!
Huge. I don't know what I will stress myself out about now! And my weekends are now free, and I have nothing to use as an excuse for not doing housework!
These last two assignments that I had to do... I'd already got enough marks, but to pass the units I had to make an attempt. I still put effort in, but gave up and did the bare minimum in the end. Just wanted to be done.
It was bad enough that my second last assignment was a voice over presentation and I have had a horrible flu and lost my voice. I'll be nighmaring on that for a few years yet
I'd tap that
