@EliMcCann If by "trail running" you mean watch early 2000s chick flicks/girl power movies with popcorn, then me.

Me planning how many cookies to bring to a party where there will be lots of food, including several other types of cookie: "So, if each person has 8, I need to make 176. I'll just round up to 200 in case I'm underestimating."

@SISTASinZION Seems like he had Covid in December and is dealing with long hauler symptoms. That's a scary amount of weight to lose that quickly, though.

[Loretta Porter @LPorterBooks13]

@ladyozma @SISTASinZION A friend of mine is a long hauler and it's no joke. So sad.

[Loretta Porter @LPorterBooks13]

@ladyozma @SISTASinZION Definitely adding him to our prayers!

[Loretta Porter @LPorterBooks13]

@cassielarimer @hankrsmith @DaleGRenlund Oof that's rough. That would be a crazy tough recovery. I'm just glad he's still with us!

Me: I'm a smart and rational woman.

Also me: Rotates the plates and bowls that I use because I feel bad if one might be left out.

[Loretta Porter @LPorterBooks13]

@AbbyHasIssues And airplanes. We live close to an Air Force base and oh my gosh the jets are ridiculously loud.

@StaceyHarkey I married my hubby for his well endowed lips & then prayed our kids got his lips. I literally ugly cried in the hospital when they handed me our daughter. The nurses asked what was wrong and all I could say was, "She has my lips!" They assured me she was beautiful. 😂

@MollyBOfficial My sister's site for handmade ceramics! https://t.co/BJjmJMaf9A she's on Instagram @refinedceramics and honestly does amazing work!

Not a fan of how the car wash attendant aggressively waves me forward when there is another car 2 feet in front of me.
