Why I don't trust my doctors: I come in for a Well Visit and we talk my health, $0 copay. BUT if anything is new, from either of us, they'll code it an unscheduled Office Visit which is $130. So I'm motivated to tell my dr NOTHING and ask no ZERO questions. Thanks UnityPoint Health - Cedar Rapids.

I save a special kind of anger for people who choose the wrong place on House Hunters.

Just heard my kid straight up BRAG to two other kids in the sandbox that her mom is a soccer coach. They were dutifully impressed. I've never been more proud.

How far I feel from my box when using my feet to clear vs how far I actaully am. #goalkeeperProbs

I still dont get why this year's hs Seniors arent the ones beating the vaccine and mask drums the loudest. They saw what happened two years ago. Do they not think it would happen again? Do they not realize that their spring breaks, sports, proms, and graduations are all in doubt?

The worst part of parenting is that you can't hold a grudge. If anyone else came in my home and did the stuff this 5yo did I'd be mad for days, but since it's my own kid, I more like, "Welp, there was a fun 30mins of toilet plunging. Wanna do Legos?"

Too bad that the age when I needed new cleats every few months didn't line up to this age when I can actually afford all the awesome cleats I want.

Random knowledge from Kinder homeschool: Night animals are nocturnal. Day animals are diurnal. Sunrise/sunset animals are crepuscular. (Matutinals, or Aurorals, are active at dawn. Vespertines are active at dusk.) Cathemarels (ie humans) just do whatever, whenever. #Smart

Is there anything quite so #middleage as having a great workout at the gym, then pulling your hammy when you reach down to grab your phone off the floor?

After something like 8 or 9 years in a row watching the NFHS concussion video you'd think I wouldn't take any pride in getting a 9/9, but you'd be wrong.

Why have none of the big sport shoe companies (adidas PUMA Football New Balance Nike @Diadoraofficial ASICS America) thought to make a cold weather shoe for coaches? Waterproof, windproof, comfy, but with enough traction so I don't fall on my arse in front of a bunch of teens.

Getting a yellow for allowing a sub to come on with a hair tie on her wrist is easily one of the dumbest things that's ever happened to me.

Here's a sleepy boop from Rylie in case you needed one.

I swear to heck... If I have to talk to one more mom about their kid's experience in public school versus what I'm doing with my kid via homeschool I swear I'll be so happy because we both want what's best for our kids and moms helping other moms "mom" is so awesome!

Itd be pretty great if Carver College of Medicine or University of Iowa Health Care could find a bed and a neurosurgeon for my dad's osteomyelitis. Totally normal to sit in an ER for four days waiting, right? #waiting #HolidayWeekend #Neurosurgery

If Carver College of Medicine and their Neuro dept could go ahead and swipe right on my Dad that'd be great. It's only been SIX days sitting in St Luke's ER. Feel free to message me if you care for his name and other details. Or call St Luke's and ask for "guy who's been there forever".
