@johnpavlovitz Chinese take-out. The 13th of any month, but especially Friday the 13th. Apricots. OneDirection songs. Not being able to find something (because she could find anything).

[Shannon Lee Denney @grievingmommke]

@Mark_Baden Nope. Never. Boomer Sooner!

@hiitslissy @C_Stroop Falls Creek! Talk about a blast from the past. That and Kiamichi. I was at Kiamichi in the 80s when the group Gabriel got turned off after their 5th or 6th song at the Thursday night concert because it was inviting demonic spirits.

@farsouthhistory @DanielGullotta Someone else who remembers Jonah! My daughter’s friends think it is a figment of her imagination. 🎶 “Jonah was a prophet.” “Smells like…Wisconsin.”

@bnykamp13 @SJohnsdottire And I have yet to meet a woman who has had an abortion who has had other options. “Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the crime”? BC fails. Men push. Women shouldn’t be the only ones punished.

[Shannon Lee Denney @grievingmommke]

@bnykamp13 @SJohnsdottire It was an abortion. Mine was similar at 13 weeks. The anesthesiologist told my husband that he wiped both my tears as I wept through the entire procedure and his own as he wept with me. “Incompatible with life” is not the same as “dead,” but a d&c or d&e is still an abortion.

@DimTillard Thanks for saying Hi to my mom tonight! I think that’s the very first time I’ve caught her absolutely off guard!

@BrewersFanCamp I’m a graduate of Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, OK. It’s pronounced Tah-Leh-Kwah. Go Riverhawks!!

I used to drink tons of Diet Coke but it’s been one month since I’ve had a drop.

I want to share some of the changes I’ve observed in myself over that time:

- My health is unchanged
- I’m less happy
- My one source of joy is gone

Thanks for encouraging me on this journey!

[Shannon Lee Denney @grievingmommke]

@KristieRhea865 @WolfWendy777 @danielcrosby It’s true, though. Also found in the old pizza joints.

@MicheleAChmbrs I agree ONE MILLION PERCENT. And I have no reason why.

[Shannon Lee Denney @grievingmommke]

@quinncy HR PEOPLE (OHRP) WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THE HR THING BUT AREN’T SO I CONTACT HR PERSON 2 (HRP2) WHO REITERATES THAT OHRP SHOULD BE ANSWERING AND CC’S SAID OHRP WHO STILL DOESN’T DO THE THING!! (And I’m still waiting on actual notice of being “let go.”)

@howrya71 @quinncy And get your number and move the eff out of the way of the dispenser.

[Shannon Lee Denney @grievingmommke]

@quinncy @SanteDOr Go ahead! You deserve a kitty!
