Second appointment of today was for my kid and his shoulder blade pain.

The MD said we're all weaker now that we aren't working the fields.

Who is we, because I am a perimenopausal, 47 y.o. woman, mom of 4 who bench presses 115lbs.

Made my orthopedic MD frustrated today with a clarifying question. Not my fault you weren't specific enough. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I remember talking about the Super Bowl commercials because they were fantastic, hilarious, inventive, and hella creative. This year we are all wtf-ing and wth-ing.

Mike Tyson called himself fat and nasty?!?

It's 1990 something and I switch from a public to a Catholic HS and attend my first campus religious life mtg where I meet a young man who is SMITTEN with me then BEREFT because he found out later I was betrothed.

I had a boyfriend!
I was the 1st Mormon most Ss there met.

We're still friends.
it’s 1990 something and I’m sneaking outta the house to smoke weed with the cute boy with a car and sneaking back in with punk rock mix tapes and hickies.

I attended the ETR meeting for the kid I tutor. I was reminded over and over again why I homeschool.

My HS drama teacher wrote a short story about me. Enjoy what we in my circle of friends refer to as a Sophomore Jen Moment. There were many more. krayproductions.com/project-26/

At the walk in clinic with my oldest.

MA: boys never leave their mommas.
Me: Actually, the whole point is independence which is why I am here to support as I scaffold the skills for him to do medical appointments alone.
MA:...

Do not say stupid shit to me.

I just made Mr. 13's day by asking him to get me something in the back of the cabinet on the top shelf. I'm not short but do need a stool for that.

NO one had their garbage bins out at 8pm Tues night. I guarantee they thought it was delayed due to MLK.

When my husband says we're out of something he acts offended when I go look for myself.

Idk why. 9/10 I find some...in the exact place it is supposed to be.

Gotta look with your eyes, not your ass.

My rotisserie chicken was way undercooked and now it's gonna be a while before I can eat one again.

Guess I have to rely on my emotional support popcorn and dried mangos.
