That seems like success to me too!

And I’m a Mainer. I grew up having to lend a hand shoveling after every snow storm. We would snow blow the driveway ourselves.

But our houses and our community are built for that weather.

I saw someone describe this as Balatro for pool which really intrigued me!

The only number I still have in my head is my mom’s cell phone.
I’m lucky if I read one book a month right now.

To be fair, having babies does things to your brain.

A very interesting read! It makes me wonder what my old college is doing…

I didn’t have an iPhone until I was graduating high school. Everyone else had one, but I loved my phone with the little flip out keyboard.

I miss that thing…

Yes! The Anxious Generation was such a good book! I’m glad you mentioned it!

I turned on some lofi hip hop and chilled out my kids so hard that they laid down on the floor and just relaxed for a few minutes

I have a teapot that looks like an apple that I hardly use, but thoroughly adore! One day, I’m gonna have a big outdoor tea party and use all my teapots.

Was this ghost written by my husband?

When we got married, I remember the only time I got teary during the ceremony was at “in sickness and in health”. I was thinking about how my husband was going to be traveling through this with me with all my medical baggage.

He’s been a trooper and has brought me many a midnight snack. ❤️

There is risk to any medical choice. And doctors are humans who can make mistakes. They’ve also spent many many years learning in highly specialized fields.
But no doctor will ever force you to do something you don’t want to do.

I’m just grateful that I have a body that feels the lows and highs before my gear does anyways.
I know friends who don’t feel the lows when they happen until they’re in really dangerous territory.

It makes me think of how life changed after 9/11 in the US as well. Having a chronic illness with lots of medical gear, my luggage always gets shuffled through and searched. I’m just grateful that no TSA agent has ever tried to rip off my medical gear.

This time, I basically told hospital staff “That’s nice dear” and did what felt right. Third time around, I’m pretty confident in reading my kids, even as newborns.

This time, I pump when I feel like I need to and feed him when he asks and I have more than enough. Sometimes it’s every three hours. Sometimes I wait a little longer. But not being stressed means I produce more.

I was so stressed with my other two because I felt like I had to pump every 2-3 hours or I was “failing” and I was pumping an empty well. It hurt and was disheartening.

So does this mean that the body is still trying to produce insulin even while under attack by the immune system? So if the immune system is retrained, the cells could go back to producing insulin?

I kept reporting mine and now I haven’t had any issues for a while. I wonder if the constant complaints meant quality improved for my shipment area?
