I’m not rich, but I have four 9x12 ruggables and that’s definitely a flex (they’re all secondhand). We don’t have “too many” pets, but we have enough that they’ve become a tactical consideration.

I really didn’t want any sentimental objects to remember my dad because I have so many bad memories of him, but I kept these chips because they remind me how hard he tried.

Farewell, brave soldier - he served you well.

I need this coffee to make me poop. 🙏 🙏🙏

My guardian, keeping a watchful eye from the peak of Comfy Mountain.

I was a vegetarian for 20 years, then a partial vegetarian. Now? No gluten, no dairy, no soy…😒 I have Hashimoto’s and slim pockets. Beans and chicken leg quarters are my main proteins.

So my bitch-ass auto-immune system decided it had beef with my thyroid and subsequently ruined my life. #hashimotos

AND he has a girlfriend, and there’s a lot more going on with THAT situation, as well.

I will sum up: her son (who seems to be a young adult) has returned home due to some other drama, and he’s eating at her table but won’t contribute to household expenses, instead spending all his time engaging in nonsense.

I am LIVING for the out-loud, full volume phone conversation I am hearing at the laundromat (my machine is broken). I don’t like drama in my life, but I want to KNOW the drama - drama-adjacent, if you will. #delicioustea

The husbeast has once again captured his wily opponent, established dominance, and returned it to its watery lair. They say “happy wife, happy life,” but happiness matters for everyone.

I got you, fam.

Sometime, despite buying cute clothes that were approved at the time of purchase, your autistic tween will dress in ways that you don’t like. It’s not worth distressing them - it’s just clothes. #AuDHDmom #AuDHDtween

I am really struggling with feeling ungrateful right now. In the last 10 days I’ve had a uterine biopsy, gotten a crown (stainless steel), and selected an insurance plan - three things I hated. But I’m well aware that I’m lucky to be able to afford one of these, much less all three.

The PTA is sponsoring a “parent mixer” at a wine bar and my introverted, AuDHD self would rather DIE. It would probably be fun for someone…normal? Regular? My socially awkward ass could never.

It’s hard to love someone else when you don’t love yourself.

I know my husband loves me. But he will choose himself over me every time. If I’m having an emotional need and he doesn’t know what to do or say, he will just pretend nothing’s happening while I’m quietly dying inside. In his mind, it’s better to do nothing than risk doing the wrong thing.

Now that’s prose.

I see what you did there…and I like it!

In Houston, the pleasure of a rare breath of wind is compounded by the fact that it is an ominous harbinger of severe thunderstorms. Which I also quite enjoy. 🥰

Weird - when I see that I just assume they’re religious.

This is so exciting!

It’s taken 48 hours to realize that my past experience with SA was a looming cloud over my uterine biopsy. The biopsy was very painful, but the experience of being vulnerable and helpless while someone hurts you intimately launched an unending stream of panic attacks. #uterinebiopsy #sasurvivor

One of my favorite pics of myself - my “Aunt Gladys” phase with victory rolls, circle pin, and cardigans.

Menopause (for me) is wearing a black bra under a mint green shirt with blissful indifference. #unbothered

This sweet gum outside my house…always staring! 😤

Dad 😭

This bitch is doing the most, I swear to God. She was all, “Oh, you wanted to propagate? I got you!!”

Full disclosure, I didn’t think of that on my own - it was Heather Cox Richardson. But when she discussed it, I got chills.

I don’t think he’s steering the ship as such. When he speaks in public, that’s his BEST - makeup, stimulants, etc. Imagine him without all the support. I think Russel Vought, Stephen Miller, etc are back-seat driving him almost completely.
