@Riveraka: I have 11 kids. A 22 year old daughter, a 19 year old son, an 18 year old daughter, a 13 year old son, an 8 year old boy and girl who are twins, a 7 year old son (will turn 8 in March), a set of triplets (two boys and a girl) who just turned 8 and a 2 year old son.
I also have a 3 year old grandson and a 3 month old granddaughter.
My kids enjoy pretend and some enjoy arts more than others. Most of them like learning new things and one is a serious couch potato. The boys enjoy wrestling each other.

@Jolly: My throat was really only sore the first day thankfully. I do drink lemon and ginger tea with honey in it for sore throats though.
@Totalanimefan: Do you still have it? I still do.
@inatlaka: I'm so far in the hole, money wise that I would rather not.
@PurpdaBurpPurp: Colds suck. Not the worst. I've had meningitis before and I think that was my worst and now I can't drink red Gatorade anymore thanks for nothing meningitis... ) : < Lol
For real though, ones that won't quit suck so much.
Ah, nice! Lucky for that. I was unfortunately so grouchy on Christmas that my kids apparently called me the Grinch when I wasn't in the room.
@Miss Sandman: The flu has been bouncing back and forth between my brother and his four kids for like, 2 weeks now.
@khadijacandy: I'm still sick but I'm in debt, so I'm not seeing the doctor.
@Bearzerker: You too, my friend!

Posted in weird things that scared me when i was little
Posted 5 years ago
My Dad told me that if you flush ticks down the toilet, they'll swim back up and bite onto the tip of your ding-a-ling. So I was scared to use the toilet during tick season.
Also, gonna sound mildly sexual but I promise you it's not: sucking things. Lmao okay though let me explain. I was sucking on an ice cube and it went down my throat and I panicked and couldn't breathe until it projectile launched out of my throat and into the other room (I was in the doorway). My mom was a paramedic and she taught me how to use the Heimlich on myself. To this day I will not suck anything.
I have ornithobia, fear of birds. I was attacked by my ex's bird, so this wasn't when I was a kid and for no reason but I just wanted to mention it.
But! I used to live in Ireland and near the ocean. I don't remember this specifically, it's something that I was told. My uncle brought me to the ocean and I didn't want to go in but he insisted and carried me into the water and lowered me into it. The second my feet hit the water, I cried and shook and I even peed myself (I was a toddler to be fair). I still hate the ocean and I can't explain why.

@Jolly: Kinda gross but I swallow the mucus I hack up, which my doctor said is why I'm still sick and coughing so hard. Also, I'm a lung cancer survivor, so she's been getting pissy with me that I won't listen to her.
Waking up into a hacking fit is the worst, I feel your pain.
The wheezing is absolutely annoying and I can't take it. It's like listening to a fly buzzing around your ear except for the fact that it's you, so you can't just go in another room. Lol.
Thank you!

@Queen of Trash: Oh! That's quite a bit of rodent fun! Are they still separated from the older boys? Or have they met yet?

@Queen of Trash: How many rats do you have? I have only had one, which I know isn't the best situation for such social creatures but I was a kid and I actually was not supposed to have her but I snuck her home anyway. lol

Featuring many language books for my language hungry soul and my games. I had more but ran into financial trouble recently, so I sold most of my games.
Featuring my mother's ashes on the top in the middle, a snowman head Janna made with a tin can and felt and a sock on the left and on the right, just an air freshener. Upper middle shelf is my dragons + cat statues. Lower middle shelf is my Link nendoroids and various Amiibo. Bottom is my kung fu bois.
Below is my cat's dinning area, tucked away safely so...ahem...my kid doesn't trip over them.

I'm listening to "The thing about December" by Donal Ryan and it's depressing.
While the Celtic Tiger rages, and greed becomes the norm, Johnsey Cunliffe desperately tries to hold on to the familiar, even as he loses those who all his life have protected him from a harsh world. Following the deaths first of his father and then his mother, Johnsey inherits the family farm, and a healthy bank account, both of which he proves incapable of managing on his own. Village bullies and scheming land-grabbers stand in his way, no matter where he turns. Though companionship, and the promise of love, enter his life as a result of a hospital stay following a brutal beating, Johnsey remains a lonely man struggling to keep up with a world that moves faster than he does.
Set over the course of one year of Johnsey Cunliffe's life, The Thing About December breathes with Johnsey's bewilderment, humor and agonizing self-doubt. Readers will fall in love with Johnsey in a bittersweet tale that serves as a poignant reminder that we are surrounded in life by simple souls who are nonetheless more insightful and wise than we realize, or can even imagine.
