No one is suggesting eating a giant lunch full of processed carbs. Your blood sugar absolutely can impact your mood. If you want to fast for days, cool. But there are all sorts of consequences for fasting, not all of them amazing.

I feel this. I have one kid, had horrible PPD and wouldn’t have another baby for a pile of money. I’m tired of explaining I’m not infertike, I do love my kid, I’m not miserable...I can’t begin to wrap my head around having another kid. It was 2.5 years from the moment I peed on a stick until I felt remotely normal and…

Morning nanny. Show up at 6 am, clean up, fold laundry, get the kids ready.

Yeah you maybe able to go back to “normal” but it’s going to be a ridiculous amount of work for the rest of your life.

I think part of it is there a huge difference between reality and what you imagine it will be like. You hear how tired you will be and think “oh yeah I remember finals week! I’d find a way to go out and study and take exams on three hours of sleep!”

I couldn’t do adult diapers. I just wanted to feel normal again. Diapers weren’t gonna help that

Oh my god I suppressed this and now I am remembering.

The first post partum poop...more terrifying than birth.

The sanctimonious attitudes around eating is ridiculous. Many people lived on typical kid food while young and grew up to eat a wide variety of food as adults. They even *gasp* know how to cook! The reality is no one is who they were at 2 or 3. Some kids eat whatever. Others don’t. If you have the kind that eat…

She’s 3. This isn’t the discussion you have with a 3 year old.

I’m taking my kid to Disneyland for the first time for her fifth bday. I don’t iwn a stroller anymore but I will be renting one there. There is no way she is going to make it, hoofing it around the park, 3 days, for 8-10 hours. Obviously we let her walk as much as she wants but I j is she’s going to get tired.

There is a period of your kids life where their main objective is simply to move. The kid leash is a way to make sure they don’t die. Because they are tiny and faster than you think. And sometimes you have to sneeze and blink in public. I have never seen anyone use a kid leash on someone not disabled over the age of…

I’m gonna say it

When I was 16, I worked at a store that sold outdoor gear. Clothes for hiking and backpacking, all kinds of camping, hunting and fishing gear, shoes, etc. I worked with this Mormon guy a few years older than me who had it BAD for me. I can’t lie...I lead him on a bit. I was young and liked the attention. We never went…

Moved from az to New England and people think Az is the greatest place ever. Most of them have never been there. I ask if they like the idea of celebrating Thanksgiving when it is 85 out. Usually they make a face and say no. I then tell them to not consider it. 

Uh the majority of what he is doing is his time. 

Oh he will feel it. It may not seem he will but Narcissists are deep wells of pain that can not be relieved by anything.

I moved near his home town and he frequents a few restaurants we hit up when he visits. I am really hoping I run into him one day

I would have had sex for 6 months at 32 and then never again. 

There is no way in hell my kid would go back to that school. I’d move if I had to.
