Congratulations! Boy or Girl?

I just stole your quote. :)

This! Commenting so hopefully you’re comment is brought of the greys. She is a perfect example of someone doing something tangible for her community.

discovered Nora Robert’s books through my love of Silhouette books and later the stand-alone novels. I will admit that I have read her current books but several of her trilogies still hold a prized position on my bookshelves.

I don’t think I can actually watch thisthis documentary. It disgust me and breaks my heart for these children. How the fuck did it go.on for so long and to make it worse.he was allowed to adopt children?!

I’m sorry you’re struggling. I felt the same way after moving to Spain for 6 months. They said to give it a year to find your balance, routine, and to begin forming new relationships. I was too homesick and came back. If i were t ok do it again, i would have stayed. 

Are yo in SoCal? I keep seeing one.of the school districts in financial straits.

I’m in SoCal so my escape is the water. I head to the beach and just watch the waves come in and go out. Its very meditative.

I still like NY. but I’ve given up on all of the franchises. They've gotten too toxic for me.  I can voluntarily trigger once a day and I do that keeping track of shit-show whitehouse we're suffering through. 

Please! I cannot stand him!

Ive given up on the OC. I just dont care about any of the women anymore and all of their screaming. I liked it mych better when they didn't fight all the time. 

Are you in Nune's district?

OMG! I texted my bff this morning ranting about rich people and their inability to buy clothing that fits properly!

Im just jumping on here to vent about how much I hate my job. I feel bullied and harassed and dont jniw hiw to stand up for myself without screaming at people and the get fired. I’m really,really, hate my job!

OMG! I totally call him Blanche Dubois everytime- I see him on TV!

Every time I see him with his hands on a woman - I want to scream. He is too fucking handsy!

Yes, this on so many levels and I was born and raised here.  

I read halfway through and started crying. I’ve one of the lucky few that have never been physically assaulted so I don’t know the fear and trauma from first-hand experience, but her account is chilling.

I’ve started feeling this way about the time I started reading about the US class system. I try to ignore it and plow ahead but instances like this serve as a reminder that we're on a hamster wheel.  

My mom never forced the hugging but at minimum we had to greet people by acknowledging their presence and shaking their hand.
