Heights. There was some movie or show where people were hanging from a skyscraper window after an earthquake, and I regularly have vivid nightmares about it. It’s not to the point of a phobia but a really strong fear. I went up the Seattle space needle with my husband, and he was clowning against the glass while I was only able to stay in the middle. Had nightmares about him falling or me falling off it ever since.

TIL!

It was delicious!

Thank you! This pastry class gave him some much-needed confidence.

Brazo de Mercedes is lemon custard wrapped in soft meringue. Not easy to make, and it didn’t come out perfectly, but it was delicious! Incredibly proud of him - he is taking a pastry class at school, and this is the result of his hard work.

Haven’t decided on the holiday plans yet, but my husband and I always go for a weekend getaway in the mountain town of Estes Park in Colorado, USA in early January.

We rent a cabin with a hot tub, eat at nice restaurants, and get couples massages. The town is quiet and sleepy after the holiday rush, but all the nice little shops are still open. It’s like our own Winter Wonderland.

And there is something magical about sitting in the hot tub looking at the stars while snow is all around you. We save up all year for this trip, and it’s totally worth it.

It really depends, I try to listen to my body and think of whether I’ve had enough water and food and sleep, then fixing the issue accordingly by either hydrating, eating, or taking a short nap (or doing yoga nidra).

If none of those are the issue or if the nap is not possible, I will try some caffeine (coffee in the morning, cacao in the afternoon).

And if I have a chance, I will listen to some brainwave music that stimulates beta waves in the brain for concentration.

Finally, meditation helps me. It can be a nice pick-me-up and an opportunity to recalibrate and reset.

Thank you for making this post, it reminded me that I didn’t knit all week, and now I’m motivated to go do that.

Pro-forced birth.

Love this - should also include a bat!

Please don’t consider this an approval of his chonkiness - he is at “fat camp,” which is the obviously right thing to do. Don’t overfeed your pets, people!

While I don’t disagree with you, she looks to be in her 50s. That’s hardly old. But yes, they fall prey to every single propaganda piece ever written on FB.

I had to remember it, and now so do you!

We did have a hilarious troll who would rage about people taking a shit in their mailbox. Or maybe someone really kept shitting in their mailbox. Either was it was an entertaining read.

xenophobia.com lol, that’s so true though. On mine there is a lady who posts about 100 times per day, so she clearly doesn’t have a job. And she is obsessed with thinking there are gunshots. We live in a super safe suburban neighborhood. There are no gunshots. It’s hilarious.

You’re just some common bitch!

Jurassic Bark makes me tear up every time. I avoid watching it because the feels are too much.

She is probably bisexual. Just saying.

Yeah, they love sending them to Denver in the middle of the night during cold winters. They’ve been asked to drop them off during the day, but that wouldn’t be cruel, you know. We welcome our guests, and I will continue to knit and donate scarves for them. Fuck Texas.

Great, I take a stimulant, a beta blocker, and an antipsychotic. I’m cooked.
