Sweet baby 🥰 enjoy the wild ride 

I read this and thought “what a great husband and father”

Good job. 

This sucks and you’re allowed to mourn it. But you get a million husband and parent points. I hope you find a small local race with entries in the near future. 

Don’t be frustrated with yourself. Sounds like a freak accident. You didn’t do anything wrong. 

It is however, incredibly disappointing. internet hug sounds like you have been kicking butt and this set back is unfair and sucks. 

Proud of you for making the hard call to take care of your ankle. 

“Sterile and Feral” is hilarious

This is great. We also got bells for our door and that helped. We’d ring them every time we took him outside, eventually trained him to ring them when we went outside, then he learned to ring them to get our attention 

But in the meantime, taking him out frequently and PARTY celebrate when they go outside. It’s the best thing ever! They’ll want to please you 

Private pilot here (with similar hours to JFK at the time of this accident). It is on the pilot to not allow external pressures such as “get there itis”. They drill that into you day 1. You are always supposed to have alternative plans to get there or be willing to cancel. All of that responsibility falls squarely with the pilot. It’s an immense responsibility and should be taken seriously. 

We cannot know what was going through his head making decisions. We do know that the conditions on the lake were degraded and it’s easy for even an highly experienced pilot to lose their bearings. Our bodies work against us in those environments- you hear pilots say trust their instruments. It was avoidable, but when you read the aviation accident reports, every young pilot shutters because it’s easy to understand why in those conditions they went down. 

edit for those curious, there's an aviation book that reviews aviation accidents and the JFK accident is discussed: https://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/sep/15935

It may be better suited for those with some aviation knowledge, but the primary take away is what I wrote above. Carolyn certainly is blameless in this scenario.

I like MECHA. Not sure it counts as cheap, tho 

This race sucks every year. Very rarely do locals do it again. 

Ours likes it but wants it to be very interactive. He herds it around for a few seconds then I’m supposed to toss/kick it again. 🤷‍♀️

Try a different collar?

Beautiful. You can tell she’s a sweetheart 

Dean was the best boyfriend to Rory. I said what I said. 

Absolutely not ok he cheated on his wife obviously 

Good luck friend! Hope you crush it and you’re working through your demons. 

I read a book on grief and it was talking about things ppl get addicted to during grief (drugs, alcohol, religion, etc). I felt very sanctimonious until I read “exercise” on the list 🤣

Sending you lots of love in the universe as your claw your way through this period of life 

lol I used marathons to cope with grief when a bunch of ppl in my life died suddenly. Marathon was something in my life I felt I had control over. (I’m doing better now and noticeably not training for a marathon 🤣)

So yes 

You either are focused on losing weight in a healthy fashion, or you are marathon training.  These things do not take place at the same time. 

Yeah I’m confused. Marathon training means all the calories all the time. If anything, you’re supposed to gain weight during training. Losing weight is high risk for injury. 

Echo seeking help. Sounds like someone is trying to use marathon training as a way to mask their ED. Good luck OP

I worked from home for months with my puppy, and the puppy didn’t care if my husband (who worked a normal office job) lived or died. I was the puppy’s “person”

We’re a year in, and while I’m still beloved, puppy now favors my husband because I travel sporadically for work now. 

When we leave him with friends for a weekend, when we come back he wants to stay with whoever has been caring for him. He switches back to loving us pretty quickly tho 

So allegiances can change!

Such a good girl! She’s looks perfect (and perfectly naughty)

I give you an A+. Flowers are great

Standard advice is a lot more carbs than you are describing. Take a look at targets for your weight and take a look at the quantity you’re consuming.

Good luck 

Are you taking carbs while running? I forget the exact targets, but I aim for 30-40g every 30 min or so. Electrolytes matter too. 

This sounds like nutrition 

Mind you, I think anything over 17 is a slog so 🤷🏻‍♀️

It inspired me to go back to therapy. I’d had a bad experience with a therapist, and this show motivated me on how to advocate for myself a bit better with therapy and acknowledge that it’s hard to find someone you perfectly jive with. It’s a sensitive relationship. 

But I’m also of the opinion that everyone needs therapy, it’s like an annual physical or other routine doctor appointments. Even if you aren’t going through something explicit, it’s good to have a relationship built up and poke around in the ole noodle 

Edit to add: just because you saw yourself in Maya doesn’t mean you will end up like that character. Maybe it is just a good little wake up call to go poking around in your brain with a good therapist. See what’s going on. 

Similar experience. Definitely take to vet asap if you commit. Check for worms, giardia, and bot flys. They’ve been reported to health agencies for violations
