I changed jobs about a month ago, but never felt like my previous boss actually cared about my spouse having cancer (always said she could relate because her 70 something year old mother had a different type of stage 4). New job, people have said they can relate and understand, but have absolutely made it about me and how I'm doing, not how they're doing.

This would absolutely be my husband if he opened a container like that. Scooped a hole in the middle of the brownies I made a few weeks ago.

We had been mulling over the idea of leaving, but then my husband was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer in Nov. He says he's now tainted, but if it gets too bad our son and I can leave; it's just a sad future no matter how I spin it at this point.

My son is in second grade and ha, chosen to not to say the pledge of allegiance (his own decision because we talk about how the country won't take care of its people). He says he teachers never force him, but subs always do claiming we're the greatest country in the world.

I'm able to utilize Lidl as well thankfully.

My husband was recently diagnosed with cancer and people in several support groups I follow are now no longer able to participate in trials. These are people whose last hope was a trial; it is absolutely going to kill people.

Had baby fever for about 2 years before my husband got his and we initially wanted at least 2. Had our son and the fever never returned. I didn't want to have another to appease society and end up with a child that I honestly would have regretted. I'm now happily one and done with an 8 year old. When things aren't going well, I have to remind myself and especially my husband that he's a child.

Gave a Christmas card to my uncle one year with this and had it memorized at one point, thanks for the throwback!

Every time we watch this, my husband and I agree that doing the holidays with our families feels exactly like this.

I guess I never thought about it, but my job technically does this once/month as we have an off-site day and it usually involves doing things that normally aren't open to the public.

Glad to know I'm not the only one!
