  1. He has like.y been told before he is too loud. Or……maybe not. But either way I would address it with him privately along the lines of, ‘I am wondering if you realize how your volume, and facial expressions affect others.’ (Allow him to answer and be kind and nod along) Whatever he says you can then say ‘ I can speak for myself and the students who have confided in me that kind of treatment is not helpful and many people can’t listen to your real message when you come across as aggressive and loud’.
  2. Sometimes people are judgy some are jealous, some just say dumb things. Another thing I hear that bugs me is, ‘I have worked my butt off for everything I have.’ I usually respond. ‘You are hard worker. Sadly millions work just as hard with nowhere near the return. ‘
  3. I worked with an erratic bully/jerk/psycho for a couple of years. I almost quit several times but did not because of the owner. He would go from pleasant to psycho rapidly for no valid reason. I could see his face turn like a mask slipped off
  4. Customer service is similar in taking crap from people without losing it. And sometimes people aren’t ugly they are just don’t understand and you might have to explain things repeatedly without making them feel stupid. I excel at that.
  5. I think but I am not positive that a workmate bought it and another friend said she was petty for selling it to workmate instead of just giving it to her. But I agree it was a mean and stupid thing to say to @heartlikealion.
  6. Oh I did not realize it had been that long but still I thought it could take many years.
  7. I have always had intense and vivid dreams. Some are healing, some are sad, some are hilarious. Some can be disturbing and keep me thinking about them all day long. I keep a journal of some of my dreams. I never try to stop them because it just seems like a part of my make up. Sometimes in my dreams will thing, ‘no I don’t like the direction this story is going’ and I change course. I guess that is lucid dreaming. I view it as a gift. My most recent dream that I remember is the night I learned my xh is engaged. I went to sleep and had a dream about my best friend and she was telling me that she was all out of eggs ( like to get pregnant with). I forgot to tell her about that dream. It will be a good laugh for us.
  8. I would say you feel your life is out of control.🤷🏻‍♀️
  9. I can get things done. Things many people think they are too good to do.
  10. I would not feel good about my life being saved at the expense of a small child.
  11. The last time we had a housesitter she did not know to not leave food on the counter and our cat shredded an entire loaf of bread.

  13. I got word that my ex-husband is engaged. 15 years after he blew up his son’s family, he finally decided to get married to somebody else. He will be 60 this summer. So I guess it’s time he moved on. I knew something was up when our last ‘would have been’ anniversary passed without him wishing me happy anniversary.
  14. I did not know anything about TK until I saw a clip where he was talking to his brother about trying to get his number to TS. I had not watched football for years that point, so I knew nothing. From the boards here I learned from @Catwoman that he usually prefers busty black women so therefore he was probably not that into TS because she isn’t his type. I haven’t actually confirmed if that is true or not but I don’t think he has to be limited to dating black women because he once did. I always hope everyone will be happy, celebrity or not. I rarely like a certain musician. I am all over the map and gravitate toward good lyrics…. I am 58 so certainly when TS first hit the music scene she was young and I found her music ok but well young. Young girls my sons age liked her, that is about all I knew. Then I heard BetterMan by Little Big town and fell in love with that song. It was later I realized TS had written it and I was like hmmmm. So started paying attention to her songs. Eventually so many resonated with me I downloaded all her albums and listened to them all. Just the progression of her songwriting talent is amazing to me. That led me to paying attention to her as a person and well I think she is a nice human. All that to say I hope she is happy with TK. I don’t see the big red flags some here do. They seem very in love and happy and well I think it is nice to see happiness for a change .
  15. This thread has played out dozens of times in recent years with the added twist of let’s blame one specific football player player for his reaction.
  16. Right. I mean, he joined other team mates in the restaurant, so are we suppose to chastise all the players who dared to eat supper after a mass shooting?
  17. Now for some reason I am craving cornbread salad.
  18. I have watched it several times and I agree. The Coach wobbled because he lost his balance. The Coach never showed one ounce of fear or of being intimidated. I do believe I saw the other players on the sidelines walk toward TK and the Coach when the Coach stumbled but I am not clear if that was because TK was yelling or because the Coach stumbled. Also TK did not appear to in anyway shove him down . I think he even reached out to steady the Coach too. Football is an aggressive and violent sport. And all sports are built on over the top competition which is problematic to me but that is another discussion.

    Yesterday we went to a Chinese buffet. I love hot and sour soup and I have had it there before and it was good. This time though it was so bad that after a few bites I told Dh I thought it was spoiled. He agreed with me and so I discreetly told a server my concern. She got herself a bowl and ate it….and three of them chatted about it in Chinese and after a few minutes removed the entire pan from the buffet. They put out a new pan and came to me and apologized . However, I got another very small bit of it and it was the exact same taste and smell. Also I did not get sick…..so I think it is just not a good recipe for some reason. When they were chatting in Chinese they were probably saying ‘this crazy Karen thinks it is spoiled so we better remove it so she thinks we take her seriously.’
