Hey, what's a high fiber (as in keep shit moving, but not alarmingly so) but not high calorie tasty snack? Given the amount of opioids he's on, he's going to need it, but he also is unhappy about being sedentary.

Kiwifruit also helps move things along. And is delicious, at least to me. Thankfully.

brenda, that's awesome.

That is fantastic, brenda.

How ridiculous/old lady of me is it that I am considering buying a workout device I saw on Shark Tank??? [link]

Hilarious, brenda!

Jesse, you could also get a different kind of balance thing -- a wobble cushion (which is what they are called at OT) [link] for much cheaper

Interesting!

I like the look of that wobble cushion. I have a similar thing made of wood I got from a training-to-run site.

For those who don't want gin [link]

Aww Kat, calling you your name and hugs sounds adorable!

I will also drink wine out of whatever. But admit I prefer a thinner glass, over mug/mason jar?

It's funny because when I walk through the lower school quad, the littles yell my name or come up and hug me.

Adorable, especially since, in my head at least, the upper grades quake in fear when they hear your name. Also because hugs.

brenda, I can picture it exactly. My cat likes to run in front of me so that she can plop herself down in my path, roll onto her back, and beg for pets. Almost exactly the same thing my son used to do when he was two.

Oh and speaking of advent calendars, one day last week I noticed that my Trader Joe's had Valrhona chocolate advent calendars for $9.99 so I swooped up two of them. I'm guessing this will be an item that they have a hard time keeping in stock since I went back yesterday for a few items and noticed they were out.

brenda, that's hilarious! Cats, man.

I just ate at Chipotle for the first time. Delicious! And very filling.

I just made this: [link] and I made some mistakes, and am not 100% sure it was worth the effort, but DAMN it is delicious.
