Sorry for the late reply I completely spaced on responding to you. I don’t have a list off hand because we don’t actually have one. It’s something I want to do eventually. But like my oldest has a book called like Crafting with Cat Hair or something like that, my partner is really into Chuck Tingle who often has insane titles like Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt. Basically anything you’d walk past in a book store or scroll past on an eBook platform and it’d make you say “What the fuck?”

One of my favorite decorations is a bookshelf with very prominently featured titles that make people question either my sanity or their own.

I love swimming for that reason yeah. I’d do it a lot more if I had easier access to a pool. I had been looking into places near me to go to but it’s hard to find times that work for it. Might get a little easier once the kids are a little older and we could take them easier.

More importantly though, that’s not being the people in the joke. It might not feel like it, but there is a big difference between seeing someone struggling with a limitation that you also struggle with and offering something that helped you, and someone who has no idea what you’re going through pulling a suggestion out of their ass and making it sound easy. It hits different when your suggestion comes from a place of seeing a shared struggle and mentioning what helped you.

Thanks so much for the kind words. I appreciate it so much. I hope you have a fantastic rest of your day.

This is probably the worst part mentally about chronic joint pain for me. i want to be active, I want to lose weight, but I’m sitting here maxing out what I can physically handle just doing my everyday stuff. On a GOOD day I get about 3k steps in and I’m feeling it for days after. It’s so goddamn demoralizing.

Then in my case I’m also taking care of my partner whose health has been declining and 3 autistic kids. It feels like I’m barely keeping up.
