This is more something that made me happy yesterday, but I’m trying to lift my spirits so I’m listing it today.

A year ago I was pretty immobile. It was a super scary time and my future looked pretty bleak. Last month I started a new med that seems to be working and have since become more able bodied. Tracking my progress has given me proof that I’m on an upward trend. It’s nice to see that progress.

Catch-up with my bosses. I've been uncomfortable with how long it's taking me to fit into new job and I felt like I wasn't pulling my weight, but they were pretty reassuring and seemed to think I was doing okay. I don't really have a reference point for how quickly I should be learning the new stuff but at least I'm finding ways to make myself useful with the stuff I already know.

This is so great to hear. I’m glad you’re feeling better and stronger.

That’s awesome!

I’ve struggled with the same thoughts, but haven’t gotten that much concrete feedback yet. I feel like I should contribute more, but there are things that are making it very difficult… I’m hoping I can make a little bigger impact next year. It’s good timing because of elections and someone retiring etc.

If my cheating Ex had stayed true to me then he would have been able to retire early. Instead he left me for a skank half our age.

Honestly, I’d be so excited to see a bear in the wild, too.

Sadly, that often ends badly for the bear.

We had one in the campground where our trailer is. He was labeled a "nuisance" bear and, long story short, was eventually shot when he wouldn't leave. There are now at least three in camp including one with two ear tags (been trapped twice; she only gets two strikes). They will live trap them and TRY to relocate them. But once they get a taste for garbage, they "change". A fed bear is a dead bear.

Friday I had one ((he's a yearling) walk right up to me. A guy walking up the road shouted "Hey, behind you!" He was not more than 15 feet from me, strolling up casually as a large dog looking for a cookie.

I clapped my hands and shouted "Hey Bear!" a few times and he turned slowly and walked back into the bush.

He only had one tag so he may make it. The one with two tags has a cub, so they will not shoot her. Someone reported seeing a big Male. That's potentially 400 lb (190kg) of muscle and teeth.

Sounds very familiar...you should see what happens if they see a Moose or a Bear

Or the ocean.

My wife said she was going to give me a blow job the other day. She literally blew on my underwear and chuckled and walked away.

“Your my biggest fan” i said. Bdum-tsss

It’s hot out…

Okay, an encounter that close with a bear sounds scary. I’d be happy just to see them through a train window.

I’ve had a moose calf(? Is that what moose babies are called?) start following me like a dog once. It just wouldn’t stop following me no matter what I tried to do, including throwing a stick for it to fetch. I called my dad to ask what to do and he didn’t really have any better suggestions that what I had been doing, which was just yell, clap my hands, try to scare it off. Eventually I kind of barged towards it a few times and slapped my hands right in front of its snout(?). After a few times of doing it, it started to hang back a little and eventually went its own way.

I could have had a pet moose.

A lot of things made me smile and laugh today. Well a lot of family and 2 special pups. And also, watching Meet the Parents to close out the night had me laughing a ton

 

[muddler35]

Her: I’m hanging out in my garden
Me: Can I see your garden?
Me: Wait! That sounded all pervy. I didn’t mean it like that.
Her: stops taking vag pic.

Still laughing.

Does a streetwalker have a public garden, then? *ba-dum-tsh*

I’ll see myself out.

That sounds dangerous; mama could have showed up!

My wife. Herding a possum.

Nah, it was in the spring when the mama moose ditch the previous year’s babies to make room for new ones and the babies are like “huh, are you my new mama?” to just about anything that moves. Baby moose are adorable dummies around that time of year, but mamas don’t care about them anymore.

These hungry little fawns were getting some milk from mama in the middle of the street!

I have often thought that our RCMP (That would be the Mounties) would look way more impressive riding a Moose than a horse.

I had a moose calf swim across a river I was paddling down on a canoe trip. That was kind of cool.

It brought some needed silly sweetness into my day! Enjoy!
