    My son is helping me put a front and rear tow hook on and will be my engineer and copilot on our first track day next week.

    We have helmets and everything, can’t wait!

    I was on Lemmy and saw a post where a user named TooManyPancakes (which is a lie!) asked everyone for some uplifting news to brighten their day.

    It was a wonderful exchange! This caring person, with the poorly chosen user name, took time out of their day to reply to as many comments as they could, with uplifting affirmations of their own.

    Completely made my day to see someone ask for help and then return it in kind, many times over. ❤️❤️❤️

      Aw, you’re sweet! I just figured I probably wasn’t the only one that could use some positivity today

      And for the record, it takes a lot of pancakes 😉

    We bought a house with some farmland and moved in a few months ago. My farming ventures have been hit or miss (“learning how not to do it” as some might put it), but we had some fruit trees/bushes. We now have ume (plum) jam and are still into fresh blueberries and biwa (loquat). It’s really nice to be able to eat things from our own land when they are most fresh and delicious.

    After a long recovery I can finally start working out again

    Also I have an amazing dog that I love and I’m thankful for him every day.

      Friend I’m at the end of a two year long recovery to be able to use one of my arms again. It’s amazing to be able to do things with my upper body

      It is joyous

    I realized that giving a fuck is overrated. It’s all going to burn anyway. Quit caring so much. It’s beyond your control.

    Enjoy living in the end of days.

    Cooked my first beer can chicken today and it turned out great! Two whole chickens and a cast iron pan of cornbread on the smoker, cucumber salad, watermelon, and lemon bars for dessert. Had the ex over for dinner and she brought ex—MiL, but it was fun

      Kill it! That sounds fun as hell. Added challenge; there is a dope sandwich to be made from those ingredients. Make it for your future ex.

    Did my yearly testing for my job. Last year for some reason it went kinda rough, left feeling like I didn’t do as well as I should have even though I passed. Was kinda worried about this one. It went great. Pretty much nailed it all, learned some new things too. So headed back to work tomorrow feeling pretty good about some important skills.
