"i haven't been this happy and at peace in a very long time"

 

Strangely, reading this made me tear up.  I'm so very glad you feel this way, that your happiness has come to you, that you have peace, that you realize it and are enjoying it.  So few don't recognize it, or rush through a happy time, or worry it away by looking ahead until it won't be there again.  Revel.  Relax.  Smile contentedly.  You lucky woman.

Yay for being happy and full of peace. I think you might be missing something though ;)

(to add to your peace and happiness, not instead of it)

Congratulations Buffy! 

And now please shower us all poor unhappy or mildly happy or barely happy mortals with the shiny rays of your happiness because it seems the world is badly in need of it. If you will do it I promise you a chicken, I'd offer you a pony but since I turned down your kind offer of some hours ago I don't have one at the moment. The chicken can come alive or erhm well not alive anymore, but deliciously cooked, as you prefer. The alive version is more needy but I grant you that it's free range and unschooled, it doesn't eat poop though so you can't send him into Poopistan or I'll call the Animal Protection Service.

On a side note this blog post makes me insanely curious of your businesses. Please tell me to mind my own or I'll start asking questions.

@OnceUponATime, I'll eat the cookie if @HerNameIsBuffy doesn't want it. (Oh, who am I kidding. Who doesn't want a cookie?)

I'm happy for you Buffy. :my_smile: A little curious, but really happy for you. Enjoy your peace and if the fear comes, kick it's annoying little ass!!

It wasn't obvious that I had to choose between my regular day to day life as a billionaire crime fighting supermodel with a Nobel in physics and leaving it all behind to become the newest iteration of Catwoman?

Kidding...like anyone could ever fill Julie Newmar's collar.

But I honestly didn't intend to be so cryptic - it's a career thing.  Which for many people is less emotionally loaded and I envy them that.

I think my deep need for security and fear of change mental apps were conflicting with the program which runs my inability to be happy if standing still and pathological need for work place victories.  Throw in a recursive loop of my ego reminding me how I've never been able to separate who I am from what I do very well and my mental OS just said screw this and gave me a big old BSOD.   And the finger.

I am actually fascinated by the mechanics of how my psyche rebooted.  Go to bed with literally no idea what to do and not even leaning one way or another and wake up like it's a fore drawn conclusion and knowing exactly how I need to move forward.  

Like when I've struggled to the point of frustration with some formula in my code, or why Exchange is trying to kill me...and I can't figure it out but go play an online game, take a shower, get my brows done and BAM there's the answer...duh.  

So next time I take a break to try to bring the answer to surface and nothing.  Then weeks later - bam - got it.  

I just think it's interesting how sometimes brains keep secrets from us and divulge them randomly.  

For all I know I'm a genius who has the answer to all the world's problems, I just haven't found the right time-suck to make my brain spit it out.

      I think she unenthusiastically said yes to the first man Scotty Brown (not/never father of the year) convinced/ coerced to take her and the 6 step kids.

      Hope she is happy, but intuition tells me no, and that she believes the unhappiness is normal married life.

      Really really really hope she wasn't "convicted" to have more children.

      Childless semi-old catlady here. I don't hate kids. I hate parents who don't bother to teach their kids (age apropriate, of course) about boundaries. I'm quite happy to let kids be kids. But if they start to actively pester me and intrude on me (like trying to drink from MY lemonade in a Café, or wiping their chocolate covered fingers on my backpack during train rides...) then I will speak up and tell them to stop, and I'm fully aware that to the innocent bystander I might come across as 'hating' kids, especially since I might be a bit worked up at that point. I'm not blaming the kids, they don't know better. I'm blaming those parents who shy away from putting a brake on their kids' (sometimes) too exuberant behaviour. 

      What’s funny is I often say this about dogs! 🤣🤣🤣 Every time I find myself hating a dog, I realize I just hate how horrible the owner is. It’s always someone who lets their dog get away with the most horrific behavior at the expense of other people.

      I have a bunch of kids and as much as I love them they also drive me nuts.  They can be loud and messy.  The younger ones are still figuring out where their personal space ends and other people's (mostly mine!) begins.  But I can't ever imagine them doing something like drinking someone else's lemonade.  And if they ever took leave of their senses long enough to try, I would deal with it ASAP and also buy you another lemonade.

      My kids are my responsibility and if they act up in public it's my job to correct them or take them somewhere else so they aren't disturbing others.  

      But I have also occasionally come across people who do seem to resent children being present in public at all.  Don't think they should be brought to restaurants, etc.  I couldn't say what percentage of the childfree population feels that way, but people like that do exist.  And I think it's a shame because (a) how do you teach kids to behave in places like restaurants if you don't take them to practice, and (b) if I've put in the work to teach my kids how to behave in various places and they are not being disruptive, they really do have just as much right to be there as any other segment of the population.

      It makes me wonder: would these modesty-fundies be okay with swimwear on girls-only trips?

      In this case it is filmed and published so the same standards as public places would apply but what if it was a private moment between friends and family?

      For instance, Muslim women do not dress with the same modesty standards in the private of their household.

      There is also a toy rabbit with a pink ribbon in the picture.

      Either they use it to honor Isla or it’s an announcement for a girl. 

      My guess is to honor Isla, since she'd be a few months old now if she made it, but could be both.
