I'm so sorry you also know how this feels. It's awful. I really don't understand how "family" can treat their own like this.

Thank heavens for found family, David Jenkins & his insane pirate horde. 🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️

Ooof. Yep. All of that. It's almost worse to *know* why you feel so shit and still not be able to shake it. 🫂to you friend.

And a quick "Good Morning ❤️" text to them, even when they're adults, wouldn't be enough for me. But I also could never choose something over my kids, so. I guess it's not a good comparison. I thought I was past being bothered by stuff like this. Huh.

Good thing I have therapy tonight I guess. 3/3

thinks *that* is enough. Won't have a meal with me. Won't speak to me beyond logistics for the grandkids. Says she loves me while actively shunning me. But I can guarantee, she felt better by sending that^ to me on my birthday. As a Mom myself, I know how it feels on my kids' birthdays for me. 2/3

Happy Birthday!!! 🎈

These are stunning!!! 😍

I fear the oven may be inside the turkey. Good lord. Look at the size of it!

Also, am in in charge of IT? No. Am I in charge of printers? Also no. I just work closest to the room the printer is in & I am slightly younger than my coworkers. Those are literally my only qualifications.

I am merely printer-adjacent & less aged. That's it.

An error message you only could have seen if you moved the paper I taped to said machine stating it's jamming & will not work. I would think that was enough to you know....let people know it's NOT WORKING! 2/2

So fast!!

Happy Birthday!! 🥳

Ah!!! Thank you so much 😍

Happy Birthday Amy!!!! 💜🎂🥳
