She was the most adorably pathetic little thing. She was found abandoned by a co-worker at an estimated 4 weeks old. I could not resist that face. We’d agreed to no more cats and then suddenly we had another cat.

Fuck you guys. One of my cats was vomiting this week. Like bile and stuff. It took me a couple days to figure out which one because they were all acting normally. I finally figured out it was my Tiny Wots, so I took her straight to the vet. She was refusing food and water. Doctor felt a mass in her abdomen. They took…

So my husband is a very frequent flyer. He’s already over 60 flights this year. He should really just be a pilot. Whenever we are going somewhere and it’s possible to drive, we drive. He has experienced every stupid flight thing ever. Worst thing that happens to us driving is they close a highway for snow, and you can…

Yup. We are just about to drive to Vancouver Island which is 10 hours plus an hour and a half on the ferry. No way I’m dealing with flying for that. And for four of us it would cost nearly 2k. Lol. Riiiiight.

The eyes of a person who is entirely lacking a soul. I want confirmation that he’s human.

I read further about this and apparently when people are eating like that they tend to act in a similar fashion to someone who is choking. So the people watching didn’t even realize that he was having a problem. They just thought he was doing standard stuff-your-face stuff. Until he was blue. :/

Unfortunately where I live, consignment is not good. But I hear you on the dance shoes. I don’t have a boy so I’m better off, but damn tap shoes are expensive. Mine were over a hundred bucks (figured it was worth it since I won’t grow out of them!). My dancing daughter is only 5 and has tap shoes, ballet shoes, and…

ALL THE LINES.

Oh, your kid is older. My older daughter’s are more expensive now. Probably 80 bucks at SoftMoc.

There is in my city! Our shoe stores keep shutting down or they otherwise suck. I just shop Payless when sales are on. 90% of their shoes are from Payless and the other 10% are winter boots. This will be a legitimate problem for me if they close here. Better shopping is 10 hours away. Womp.

Duuuude. I spend that much on my kid’s Sorels!

I don’t buy for myself there, but I do buy for my kids. We don’t have a lot of footwear options for them in this town, and that is one thing I do NOT want to buy online. I’m basically going to be left with Walmart or the expensive place where I get their winter boots. But I don’t want to spend that kind of money on…

Noooooo. This is where I get my BOGO indoor shoes for the kids’ activities!

I can’t believe he was only 28. I mean I should know that. But damn, that’s so young.

He was my first proper “grown up” celeb crush (as in not JTT). I miss that crush. Which is silly as I did not actually know him, but it still makes me sad. :(

Seriously, that song haunts me. When my husband wants to irritate me, he just starts singing it. She was also lifting the kids up - other people’s kids! - so they weren’t getting the exercise of actually climbing the wee steps. Fortunately my kids avoided that shit.

Like that one time I’m at the mall play area and my kids are just doing their thing while I’m reading a book and then I notice this mom standing at the slide making sure all the kids take turns and singing a little song “turn by turn, turn by turn”. Like wtf lady. Sit down. Have a damn coffee.

I’m a nowadays mom and my kids are either in the play room with their lego table or running around outside with their friends. They are 5 and 7, so not super old. They usually want nothing to do with me when school is done.

I don’t get it either.

So my husband is out of town most of every week. Nobody cares with the exception of Our Awesome Neighbours who understand everything due to their awesomeness. It’s just considered fine and normal for me and the kids to be alone all the time.

Once a year I go out of town for a few days for my annual recharge. This is…

I know I’d be straight up fucked because I was diagnosed with epilepsy as a kid. Glad I live in Canada. I’m not even an unhealthy person. I just used to have seizures sometimes. I don’t anymore.

I was previously unhappy about this development, but if Dick Van Dyke is on board, I AM THERE. This is a delightful cast.
