I went to FanDuel to turn on the Grizzlies game and my 4 yo said “no, Amazon Prime!”
Found it on Prime and accidentally clicked on a future game. He yelled “no, mom. PISTONS!”
Our work here is done

Woooooow

I REFUSE to get used to the sound of helicopters circling my neighborhood well into the night most nights

I hope women in the IBTC appreciate their abundant dress options for fancy occasions

Yes we have both! Haven’t had to use them yet thankfully.

Few things are more rage inducing than a diabetic toddler having a low who is refusing to eat or drink ANYTHING

If you’re wondering how back-to-back our Saturday is, C was counting the events and then exclaimed “I don’t have enough fingers!!”

Brenda @truebluebrenda.bsky.social · 11d

I’m sure I’ll be the same way.

Brenda @truebluebrenda.bsky.social · 12d

Fun fact: it was my DREAM for C to be the Circle of Life baby, and since Taylor co-founded the Grizzline we might have been able to make it happen, but the guy who plays Grizz had a baby the same year. Still disappointed

HAPPY OPENING NIGHT, MEMPHIS 💙🐻🩵 #GoGrizz

I am THE WORST at rating my pain on a scale. When I was in labor I guessed a 4 until Taylor pointed out that my expression was at 7

Brenda @truebluebrenda.bsky.social · 15d

Me, in my office: There are a bunch of blue jays flying around here by the roof. They seem excited
Taylor: Well, they are a couple of games from going to the World Series

I could be wrong but I feel like MAYBE fall has finally arrived in Memphis

💯💯💯 I’m so sick of it

Heading to Texas today for another family funeral. Over the last 3 years, we’ve lost both of my mom’s parents, a cousin, and two uncles. A friend of 20 years also passed suddenly a month ago. I’m tired.

BRB making a SoundCloud account so I can listen to the Elizabeth Taylor BSB remix on repeat

At what age do kids start playing WITH EACH OTHER at play dates instead of making everything even more chaotic parenting-wise?

Brenda @truebluebrenda.bsky.social · 23d

Yeah, we hear medical ones pretty regularly but these are not medical 😑

You know what is NOT helpful for falling asleep? Choppers circling your area for hours #Memphis

Yeah, it’s not the same ☹️

I like your list. My husband’s fall movies are Rudy and Vanilla Sky

I’ve been gardening for 15+ years and this year is hands down the best tomato harvest I’ve ever had. This is just from today

HOW IS THIS REAL?!!!!?!

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol
