Has anyone read:

The Hundred Years' War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917–2017 g.co/kgs/HsUXgf

Had a parent/teacher meeting this afternoon for my kinder grandson (I'm raising him).

Teacher said she has given up on trying to stop him from saying "Yeah Baby"
She said she has caught herself saying it now when he does good.

🤣

My toddler was talking at length of how she was worried about "the merman." She was scared of him. And I was trying to figure out what she meant by that, and reassured her that of all the various cryptids and mythological creatures, that was one of the least scary, until she pointed outside and squeaked "the merman!". Folks? It was the mailman.

As a result, now I can't help but compliment people, or look them in the eyes or feel comfortable in my own life, and go out of my way to help others work through their dark days! We are ALL a work in progress!

Not so very long ago when things weren't going good for me at all, I truly crawled deeply into myself. I didn't and couldn't see any good in me, my life or anything affecting me or my life - I couldn't look at anybody in the eyes, couldn't compliment anybody for anything at all... I'm so glad (AND RELIEVED) that has done a complete 180 including doind what I needed to do, what I COULD control to make my life a lot better for myself because others never gave up on me!

Howdy Folks! G'son's nauseous & dizzy at times as to be expected. Dr today: "Bed rest, feet elevated"; to a 5 yr old that means in the living room on the couch, standing on his head🤦‍♀️😮😬🤣Told his Mom he needs a helmet!

Busy. Ya know I proudly say I'm nosey; got vid of wreck; kiddo sent to police. I enhanced to get clearer shot of truck that hit them; can't see driver nor tags from angle; will find tho; truck never turned it's wheels away; plowed thru like a train🤬
Just checking in; love to all!

Good Afternoon! Grandson rushed back to 🏨 yesterday evening. Told mild concussion; home resting today. His Dad's in a lot of pain, but mobile.

Had to give his Ma our last $ to get meds & groceries, but no biggie; missed her EBT recert because she was in the hospital! She didn't know until yesterday(usual deposit) so handling it today. She was already shaken over wreck & THOUGHT she'd have food in house. Grandma made sure💪

Doing surveys now & making a few bucks. Check back in when I can 💸

I could have told them this. Wonder how many they ate 🤣

I'll bet someone here on CoSo could do it. Wouldn't it be something if your smarter than the folks MIT!

I would love an Oreo right about now

The first thing you should do when you want to train away resource defense in a dog is to identify the causes of the behavior. What makes the dog feel compelled to act this way? Which resource or resources does the dog want to try to defend and from whom? Once you've found the root of the problem, you can then work on untangling the knots. You do this by gradually exposing the dog to the trigger in a controlled environment.

Happy Sunday!

Hey, writer peoples:

Scheduled to do my 7th (!) annual workshop for Nova Southeastern U's Alvin Sherman Library in January 2024. (Free, I'll post details in Nov, Dec.)

Anyway . . . I'm wondering what topic to do this time. Done creating characters, settings, pacing, dialogue, interior description, book covers. Could repeat an older one of those.

Please send me what you'd love a workshop subject to be - maybe one you've never seen?


Good morning CoSo 🦋 🌞
What do you need today? 💖

Good Morn again! Dozed off. Hubs woke me to a cup of ☕;although instant, doing the trick to rid my headache. I don't remember doing it, but he said I read him a reply about instant coffee; thank you; have to look to see who exactly it was; I easily forget stuff.

Anywho, checked phone; Grandson & Dad home. No further details because I think kiddo went to sleep & let her phone die. Know more later.

Thank you all for keeping good vibes flowing towards us❤️ they survived a head on!

Yep. I was right; Dad refused care untill son checked out. His entire side is hurting but will be ok we think. Daughter's trying to contact hospital; his phone went out after getting MRI results

Listening to scanner & someone causing a scene in the children's hospital; hopefully not him as they were trying to evaluate his injuries; if they try to separate him from his son while there, he won't stand for it
🤞

Again, thanks for 🙏 & thoughts. I truly believe you helped my Grandson this far be ok

Ughhhhhh; I can't even get up & make coffee😭; there is none! Ran out yesterday. Of all the mornings to not have some! Oh well

MRI was good. Unsure if he'll be released or kept for observation. Either way, they'll be there awhile longer. Don't know how bad his Dad is; I'm sure he refused care to be w/son; hopefully he was checked as well. Was shaken up pretty bad & crying. Even if he is a Dodo bird😅He's a good father if nothing else

Wanna go find this driver & do things I shouldn't be thinking of. White meat showing🤬

Hubs thinks I'm nuts because I'm thinking of walking up street in cold at night to grab a Spin Scooter to ride to hospital and/or kiddos house. My scooter needs repair(another thing needing doing) Been looking for affordable ebike which would get me around better than climbing into high truck. I never go far (reason I drive up street as-is in truck), but an ebike would keep police away.

Come on daylight!🛴😏

Wishing a Happy Thanksgiving Weekend to all our fellow CoSoNauts celebrating in Canada 🇨🇦 this weekend. Sending you thoughts of prosperity & abundance & kindness!
