I plan to get mine in the morning. I’m nervous. Idk why. No one else I know is getting theirs.

I’m trying to get a migraine. If you could spare a quick prayer or send a good vibe or two, I’d appreciate it. I think I’m late on my monthly emgality shot, so I’ll take that now.

Good morning! ✅get animals fed ✅Coffee read bible ✅vacuumed ✅doctors appt kroger pickup Trim trees front yard find out who does acupuncture and call maybe get Covid/flu shot at Walgreens but hoping my dr will be able to do it at my appt supper

Not exactly what you asked, but we're fairly certain my fil is on the spectrum.

Weekends are pretty dead here but I did accomplish a few things today and hope to do more. It’s a beautiful day here! ✅Coffee Read, lord willing. I feel like I haven’t stopped long enough for that today. Maybe bedtime? ✅Self care ✅order cat toys and scratch post ✅put up laundry ✅make chili ✅Watch football ✅frame poster photo I had done for ds’ Christmas, aggravating as crapola but it looks great fix eliptical—probably tomorrow. But it WILL be done by Tuesday morning. 🤨 ✅duct tape crack on cat carrier ✅Tried to sand the water spot but there’s nothing to sand, so I’ll just spray prime it and spray paint it. see if we have the sandpaper I need to sand table top. I bought a wooden end table, so nice!, yesterday at a thrift shop. It was $16.99 and listed ‘as is’. The only problem we could find was maybe someone had set a glass down on top and it needs a light brush of sandpaper. I love deals like that. ✅Ran to Dollar general for a broom and cat toy and to grocery store to grab cole slaw for tomorrows grilled chili and slaw dogs

I’m waiting on my drs office to call and give me the go-ahead. I’ll probably get it and the flu shot tomorrow. Thanks for this reminder, Scarlett.

it makes me feel better that your kids did well without anesthesia. I’m hoping that’s the right move for him, as well. I’ll have to tell him to stock up on ice cream since I can’t ship that.

I think two are in deep, maybe one is halfway and the last one just needs to be pulled. I talked to the doctor on the phone and the doctor didn’t sound phased by ds wanting just the gas or whatever they use. I think they’re both nuts, but what do I know. Maybe the X-rays are showing they’re not that bad? Idk, my anxiety is increasing just thinking about it.

His gf lives with him so someone will be there to see about him.

This is all excellent advice, thank you! The doctor told him he can drive home since he isn’t getting put to sleep. He opted for that, which I think is nuts, but whatever. I told him I’ll come take him and stay or just drop him off back home, but he doesn’t think he’ll need me. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I didn’t know any of that. 🤦🏻‍♀️. I’ll look at it and see, I think it’s a tie off to hold him if he falls? I’ll look. His uncle fell off a regular ladder several yrs ago and is paralyze from his waist down now.

Ds22 has to get his wisdom teeth removed next month. He doesn’t live here, so unfortunately I won’t be able to take care of him. What can I get for him and put in a care package? I haven’t dealt with wisdom teeth in 20+ years. What helped you and yours recuperate? What foods can he have? Thanks!

Last time dh got on our roof, it scared the crap out of me. I’ve got the safety thing in my Amazon cart now.

It may be a bartholins cyst? I’ve had one before and I can’t remember if it eventually went away or if they drained it. Either way, I’m glad you’re seeing the dr quickly!! Update when you’re able! 💛

Good morning! Prayers for all who are sick! @SKL & @HomeAgain ✅coffee ✅read ✅bible ✅change air filter ✅knock down wasp nests outside ✅place Belk order ✅Play with kitten throughout day. The older semi-feral cats are somewhat starting to get used to her ✅vacuuming ✅clean Back door ✅supper: baked chicken with some kind of sauce I got from grocery store. I've never tried it. Rice & peas ✅go through shoes on carport shelf and toss what we don't need anymore.

Congratulations! I hope you love this new place! 💛

How dare you come to a chat board…to chat about stuff. Shame on you. 🤣

Good morning! Hope y’all had a nice weekend! we found a kitten in our front yard this weekend. Pretty sure she was dumped. We’re going to keep her as an outside cat but she’ll probably come in occasionally. I’m highly allergic so I can’t have her in often. I called the vet this morning to get her first appt (thursday) scheduled. That was first on the schedule. coffee read bible kroger pick up change ac filter lightbulb in utility room Stand on step ladder to kill wasps in our deck walls supper? Maybe a big salad but we’ll see @mom31257 Happy Anniversary to Dad! @TravelingChris Glad to see you back on the board!

Thank you! Just ordered and sent the link to ds’ gf! Took like 15 seconds!

I may have inadvertently rerouted this thread when responding to mercy about my situation. I think I took it off its intended focus on infants. I apologize it that took it off the rails. To add to this thread, I think the disturbing part is 'babies' (in my view, 1.5 yrs or so and younger) and the word 'training'. Maybe we all have different definitions for those words? Maybe that's what has been confusing this discussion? I could never punish a baby (and no, I'm not trying to be on a high horse-- I hit my toddler, so I have no moral ground to stand on, just discussing the differences in definitions here.). I don't think it's really possible to 'train' a baby either. Redirect? Sure. But the words, 'train babies' is what I think may mean completely different things to different people. Like I said, in my own personal definition (which I think is obviously different than some people here), I view 'train babies' in such a negative way that it makes my skin crawl reading through the thread. But I suspect it's a matter of definition, because I don't think of any of the people on this thread as being abusive parents, but still... the idea of 'training' 'babies' just makes my stomach clinch.

Kicker/punter would be the only position I wouldn't have an issue with wrt to football. Something could happen, but it's prettty rare.

Oh yes, I definitely said 'spank' to him when I apologized and we discussed it. But privately, the guilt eats at me in a serious and unhealthy way and it's easier on me to say pop. It's just something I'll never let go. I hope to God the cycle has been broken completely.

Yes. I popped his butt. I did apologize to him when he was older and told him I should never in a million years have done that. He said he'd never pop his own kid and I was so grateful to hear that so hopefully it wont continue for yet another generation. (Although he's very likely to not have kids anyway, but still.)

My biggest regret is that I popped ds when he was young. I will never forgive myself for that. It eats at me. I wish I had this board back then, too.
