Holy flapjacks is this an unflattering photograph.
Lest you think we ever took care of our veterans, after all that, they denied his disability claim.
Apparently my late grandfather was rather a bad ass. Survived a plane crash, walked miles with fractured skull for help, then hid his injuries to take part in an invasion......
So, like, as I continue this journey of healing after traumatic brain injury & stroke, I started a substack last year, when my brain reconnected with my ability to write long form outside of group texts.
I write a lot. It'd be cool if you checked it out: msarielknox.substack.com
I came to a startling revelation tonight while watching a movie. My speech that needed therapy all throughout my childhood? Was only cuz I speak English & not French. My natural way of speaking is pure French &, in my defense, so was my great grandma.

At the very least, the grandpa who changed his whole ass name multiple times was up to no good.
It's always fun when they upload new yearbooks to Ancestry
And on the other side, my Great Grandpa's college picture
and did you know it's now $3k to get a new water heater installed?
one can only boil so much water & bathe out of a bucket for so long

This might be a weird question, but how old were you when your parents taught you to roll them a cigarette or...other smokable product?
Imagine how much better the world would be if everyone understood exponentialism?
