Four prior losses, no living children - 1 first trimester miscarriage, 1 blighted ovum, 1 chemical, and one extreme premature live birth daughter who died at 15 days old.

Some complicated chromosomal stuff going on - our fingers are crossed, but this may not go according to plan!
@lucyg00cy who enjoys talking on the phone? I can't stand it.

@laj0217 i can understand that- while i love seafood I really only do if it doesn’t look like seafood and preferably if it’s fried. I tried an oyster on the shell once and threw up at the table so I won’t do that again.

In all seriousness, a second before I hit pavement I thought I might die. We were extremely fortunate. The adrenaline from the crash had us on our feet and on the side of the Hwy immediately after the crash and we were immediately so grateful we were both fine. The taxi just had a bent fender (and an impatient client who was on his way again in just a few minutes). People were super nice and helpful (and very surprised to see us okay) after the crash. The front end of our motorbike was rebuilt overnight for about $75 USD. My husband and I talk about the crash about every 3-6 months and still can’t believe how lucky we are. Gratitude for life for how the incident turned out.
@mamamoomoo12 butterflies are ok, moths are NASTY! I used to get them in my room on summer evenings and it was terrifying trying to go to sleep and I could hear it flapping around🤢
@dsmith211 same about being an emo kid. There is definitely photographic evidence. There is a guy on tiktok that re-enacts the cringiest parts of scene kid behaviours and it’s soo funny 😂😂😂
Mine isn’t interesting but hard to believe for those that meet me now. To paint the picture I currently weigh 265lb and have chronic lung condition that means I get puffed just walking. The unbelievable thing is that I used to be addicted to exercise to a point it was unhealthy. I played representative netball, I did Irish dancing and competed at a national level which meant I had to practice 10+ hours a week outside of my 10hrs a week of classes, and I also used to be in the gym 5+ days a week - all at the same time.
@momsicle2be wow, you got very lucky! I LOVE vietnam - it's so beautiful!! It's one of my favorite places on earth.
I am terrified of heights (won't go on roller coasters, afraid of hiking on skinny paths that are high up, I even get anxious driving over bridges lol), but I went skydiving when I was in college.
Roller coasters are one of the few heights I can do, because my fear of heights is the "weird" kind where it's not the height, it's that I am afraid I am suddenly going to feel an irresistible urge to jump off the height. Not suicidal, never have been, but there is this compulsive feeling when I am around open heights. Even open height shots in TV and movies make my stomach lurch. The skydiving would be a no go for me because the fear would be that I would feel compelled to jump without a chute. It's weird, I know. But apparently I'm not the only one with this variation of the height phobia.

Now that you say "wiping", I honestly have no idea which hand I use. I think whichever side of me the toilet paper roll is on hahaha
@dsmith211 I definitely was too! We always went to "shows". I even played drums. I'm really glad social media wasn't a thing back then (other than Myspace...which is long gone).
@wiseh Irish dancing is a heck of a workout! I can't imagine doing that *plus* other forms of exercise. I'm sorry to hear exercise has been a challenge in your life, it's so easy to do things to extreme when they feel important to us.
@kboydbowman I haven't ever heard of that form of fear of heights! I used to love heights until I fell off a scaffold...no injuries, but I started to get vertigo after that. I have always hated roller coasters, not sure why.

It's weird, but it's a thing!
