Do octopi even have balls? My Google machine must think I’m high today.
Fried balls of octopus meat (I think) 😆 |

| QUOTE (Idiot savant @ 8/6/2021, 22:34) QUOTE (SeeminglySweetLikeJen @ 8/6/2021, 22:26) Exactly. Mr. Seemingly Sweet quite enjoyed the heated seats and blow dryers on Japanese toilets. American toilets might as well just be outhouses. On the Real Housewives of Dallas they were all bragging about their Japanese Toto toilets. Like, it was a storyline. Apparently they are getting popular in the US.
We are building a house in the near future and are budgeting for the Toto and not just the seat, the real deal. We installed a bidet in our RV and flush toilet paper... I cant fathom living somewhere that they don’t flush it! |

Tough but fair. QUOTE (SeeminglySweetLikeJen @ 8/6/2021, 22:26) Exactly. Mr. Seemingly Sweet quite enjoyed the heated seats and blow dryers on Japanese toilets. American toilets might as well just be outhouses. At first, when I first tried the heated seat I found it gross. After a month, when I came back to Italy, I missed that the most.
Mr. Seemingly Sweet vanished into a museum bathroom, 20 min later her came out with a smile on his face 😆 That was the fanciest public toilet we found in Japan. They also still had troughs in the floor at some train stations, I couldn’t deal, I held it until I found a “western” toilet. But we rode the train all over and visited some smaller villages not just the big cities. |

| QUOTE (GrownUpStickerBook @ 8/6/2021, 21:23) Reese’s peanut butter wrapped in chocolate.
Jen needs an ounce of self-respect. I agree she needs to wrap up her pity party and get on with the business of living. My life didn’t turn out the way I planned either, and lately I’m pretty damned frustrated and depressed. I could choose to cry into my beverage-of-choice or even stay in bed every day, refusing to do anything for anybody, and living in my own filth. But most of us roll with whatever life hands us and make the best of it. Pwincess Jennifer needs to grow up and do the same. Otherwise, it’s just embarrassing. (And posting passive-aggressive quotes is pathetic.)
When we were at Glacier National Park recently, my sister brought those thin Reese’s cups to make s’mores with! |

What’s our title for the next thread?
Jen: “it was expensive but the crib turns into a full sized bed and she will use it for years to come!”
Also Jen: (goes out and buys CC an IKEA bed frame when she ditches the crib) |

| QUOTE (Yetta @ 8/6/2021, 17:24) QUOTE (KayTee @ 8/6/2021, 17:00) The only thing is that if the kids are going to be out there more than a week or 10 days I could see her saying she has a right to go because they’re too young to be away from her for that long. I van see Suzanne letting her stay there. Not that she would go if Don and T are there.
I think Suzanne doesn’t say no to Jen, maybe due to her fragility. Maybe she wants Jen to figure out for herself that she does not belong there and set her own boundaries, in the Montessori way. Do they not know she is a Stage 5 Clinger?? Maybe Suzanne is right though to let Jen come to her own conclusions. I would bet that their custody agreement has Don having 4 weeks in the summer. My nephew has joint custody of his kids, but she is considered the primary custodial, even though it’s split. He gets his kids fir 1 month in the summer. They go camping and fishing and are gone almost the entire time (he’s a teacher and has the summer off). We are in Illinois
I agree. Someone else mentioned that at some point, CC is going to start taking pity on her mother. It’s going to be really sad when CC is a pre-teen and Jen fills her head with lies about Don & T. My husbands niece just pulled a stunt at school, got law enforcement involved, etc. all so she could go “live” with her Deadbeat Mom this summer. Her mother guilt trips her and manipulates her to make her think that she is a victim and her father is evil. I totally see that happening in the future with Jen/CC. |

Northern and central Utah is all mountains and trees and green. I don’t care for Southern Utah, but I loved living in SLC.
Do we know the general location of the log prison? I know it’s an hour from a container store! (I visited the SLC location last Fall) |

| QUOTE (I Couldn't Resist @ 8/6/2021, 17:14) QUOTE (SeeminglySweetLikeJen @ 6/8/2021, 08:11 AM) So far, we’ve seen Arches, Canyonlands, Moab, St. George, hot springs south of SLC, Dinosaurland and now we’re in Flaming Gorge. The scenery here is breathtaking. It's breathtakingly beautiful from what I've seen online (I haven't been) and I'd love to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there, or even go there on a regular basis. I need greenery.
Mr. Seemingly Sweet also prefers greenery and we are from the Pacific NW. He really enjoyed Arches National Park and Zion, we went last fall when the weather was a perfect 70 degrees. We are back on our way to Wyoming right now and it’s a bit too hot and dry for all of us! Maybe the Rosses built there because the climate is different than Chicago? But who knows what the appeal is for them. |
