I’ve had some hardships over the past year and life can be a complicated mess but everyone has their ups and downs.
I got a big promotion a year ago but the benefits haven’t outweighed the negatives so I’m at a crossroads. It has brought me financial stability in these hard times though which I’m thankful for but I know I’m going to have to make a decision one way or the other at some point.
My son has become fully invested in baseball this year and the journey still continues. He went from Little League to All Stars to now travel ball and will pitch in his first 9U kid pitch game tomorrow so that’s very exciting. I’m a nervous wreck but can’t wait to see him perform. We have lived at the baseball field since April, and it’s been an honor to watch him grow as a person and player. I don’t think we’ll know what to do with ourselves when the travel season ends next month but basketball is next up for him and he’s excited for that. Hopefully this year I can get him into watching some KU games with me as he was curious at times last season.
With work - similarly I got a promotion about a year ago. Then immediately we were (are) and industry current administration is going after. Caused a ton of stress. Went to therapy to help me understand why I was hating work so much. It very much helped keep things in perspective. Just a thought if you haven’t tried it first before leaving.
Congrats on the baseball! Good luck to him pitching! I miss playing baseball at that age more than any other competitive sports I played.
My 6 year old came home singing this, which he picked up at school. I guess theres a clapping game that goes with it. I enjoyed the regional variations in the reddit thread.

I wonder if you guys have encountered any similar spoken word things (or other things) that varied greatly by region?
@KUSTEVE They funnel fake honey thru other countries too. It’s pretty wild, sounds like your in the know.
@mayjay. That’s funny, but it’s an actual deal. Pretty crazy actually. They’ll fake anything!

I don’t analyze them I just eat them, but not often anymore. I missed my fav, snickers
I hear ya buddy - -all I care about is eating them lol
@mayjay I love the box scores and have since I fist got into sports. Sometimes I enjoy them more than the (baseball) game. You are % right when I have time to kill it’s not so bad, but I have less spare time lately.
Well guys just thought I would fill you in. Had my Doc follow up after my stay in the hospital and my pace maker they put in;
My blood pressure was a big part for the whole thing it was all over the place when they was taking it and doing the orthostatics ranging from – - -150 plus on the high side and then the big drop to like 80l50 on the low. - -Well it’s now back to 120/80 , so really encouraged with that - -pretty dam good
Then my heart rate when I was in the hospital bottomed out as low as 36 beats per minute - - they want you to be at like anywhere from 60-100 - -and now? - its shot right back to 72 – pretty good so, I am pretty happy. - my little ticker and some med they put me on must be working. - - WHEW lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@Woodrow
Exactly. MU should be his dream job, he is from St. Louis and he had the Porter family with two outstanding players and originally from Columbia to give him a leg up and now it seems that Jontay, who would have been first round pick last draft, will not play again for MU.
MU was projected #8 in the SEC before the injury and now it will drop at least a couple of spots and will not better moving forward with lots of conference teams on the upswing.

Yep. The pay wall really cuts the riff raff.
