What does the description say? Some, like these, specifically mention mesh panels for temp. https://rockath.com/products/nrg-leggings-full

Fake it til you make it!

Cats gave my son a reason to stop drinking and go home at night. He cared for them when he couldn’t care for himself. Without them i don’t know if he would still be here.

Yeah, that would have helped.

Real conversation at my house… Me - You invited your friend, Taylor, to Thanksgiving?

Kid-Yeah, they’re looking forward to meeting you guys.

Me-Oh, is Taylor bringing a date?

Kid- i don’t think so. I told them to come over about 4.

Me- ??? How many chairs do we need??

So, while they singular is correct, it’s also confusing as hell!!

Not grey poupon?

Toss him a ball and see what happens!

Lots of people are afraid of clowns and I’m probably not likely to be kidnapped. Hope i didn’t just jinx it.

I thought it was just one of those weird things to worry about until i read this. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2024/mar/05/my-period-has-become-nightmare-life-in-gaza-without-sanitary-products

Same. We can be good at appreciating the attributes of others while secretly feeling wildly inadequate.

Irrational - being kidnapped and not having access to feminine products. Totally rational & terrifying- clowns.

WhatsApp with close family Facebook for distant family, neighborhood hoa, and things i like to follow like animal shelters. I made an Instagram years ago but never used it and deleted it when i switched from r/ to lemmy. One funny thing - Facebook has the wrong birthdate for me. It used to be correct and now it’s not. Could it have picked it up when i entered a fake birthdate on a cannabis or alcohol website??

I resisted Ted Lasso and Mrs. Maisel for a long time. They’re both very good.

Maybe avoid serious lap swimming, but gentle activities in the water should be fine as long as your doc hasn’t told you to immobilize it, you have no open stitches, and you’re not supposed to be non-weightbearing. If you’re supposed to be non-weight bearing, that’s going to be difficult to do in the water and you shouldn’t risk it. Remember that you also have to get in and out of the pool. And yes, like others said, a quick call to your doc would be good.

I have knee issues and have had variable success with dansko, hoka, brooks, karhu and taos. Orthotics help a lot in most shoes. Without orthotics, the Taos currently feel the best. I have a friend who had a severe foot/ankle injury - car accident on a mountain and almost lost a foot because it was stuck under the brake pedal when they pulled her out of the back of her SUV. She wears Clarks and new balance.

When my kids were 4 they got out bread and cheese and made themselves sandwiches. I felt like i must be neglectful, but i was proud of them for being self sufficient. McD’s used to have 20 cent burgers on Wednesdays so i would buy a few plain ones each week and put them in the fridge. In kindergarten my kids could get one out and microwave it.

Do British kids drink tea?

It is hard. Took me about a year of practice to be able to go back to sleep. Adding that i deserve sleep helps me put down my phone and turn off the tv.

I focus hard and repeat to myself several times, “i deserve a full night of sleep,” to help get rid of whatever is in my brain. Then i take 5-10 breaths to think about getting comfortable, feeling my pillow and covers. Then i relax one body part for 3 breaths, starting at my feet, then ankles, then lower leg, … Keeping my mind as focused as possible on it to prevent brain wandering. If thoughts creep in, i start over reminding myself that i deserve sleep.
