Wendy refuses to do kiss bye
She says kisses are yucky but also she acts sad that xyz person is leaving and trying to say bye to her. So she tries to delay the goodbye by not participating in it.
I asked her what she wanted from the shop - and its funny - she at least picked something I was going to buy anyway - she asked for milk.
lolz.
We'd pretty much run out that morning so I made a cup of powdered milk which she drank but she clearly wanted the real deal.
Maintenance phase
I generally don't like real podcasts - the podcasts I like are heavily curated and edited conversations that probably sound a lot more like radio shows.
It puts into perspective the skill that radio hosts must have to make their conversations sound like podcasts.
In anycase - maintenance phase is a conversation I can listen to and enjoy and give me a new perspective on things. I don't always agree with what they say (in one podcast about Harry and Megan Merkle and they talk about how Megan said she was suicidal and no one believed her - and they compared her to the white Princess Diana who was believed - and say that Megan wasn't believed because she was black - I would disagree you can compare the 2 people, because Megan was a TV star in her late 20s/30s and had fame and spotlight for quite a while prior to Harry, so she should be used to the spotlight. Whilst Princess Diana was a literal nobody prior to getting married to Charles. Like she was never famous at all for any reason, and neither was her family. She was literally plucked from her normal life as a teenager, and thrust into that of the royal family -- willingly, but that doesn't make it any better - so while I don't disagree that it's not fair that one person's suicidality is being pitched against another comparatively (like if your suicidal, your suicidal - rich, poor, nobody, somebody, its a thing regardless)-- we're all in our own reality - I don't think you can compare Megan Merkle to Princess Diana, because they have really different backgrounds.
You can't say oh Diana was much more believed because she was white.
No. I say Megan wasn't believed because she had a background of asking for people to look at her, and now when people looked at her and commented she didn't like their racist comments.
While Diana was probably (and its all speculation) stressed that her relationship with her husband was strained ++++ due to public scrutiny of her husbands actions, as a father, as a man who had a previous girlfriend he was still very much in love with despite that lady also being married to someone else. Diana didn't have to deal with the racial abuse, but she had other issues that made her suicidal that probably, more people can relate to because it crosses the barrier of race itself. Every race has problems with their husbands emotionally cheating on them. While only one set of people will have issues with feeling they are treated differently/subpar to those who have a lighter skin tone than theirs.
Anyway, I like. the podcast overall because they do give me a different perspective on acceptance.

Remains the classic textbook baby. She makes Wendy look like an evil child.
Sometimes I forget she even exists. Not because of a bad reason - just cause shes so quiet and I've been so well, and theres so minimal number of things I have to do for her. She just sort of exists. Until she cries.
Law and Order
I am fast running into the abyss of season 12 finale where I hear Stabler then all of a sudden just quits.
There's a really sweet moment in I think 12x17 where the DA gets stabbed by a murderer who wasn't a murderer to begin with - because he tried to disguise someone's death by shoving alcohol up their rectum to make them apear drunk - as to the reason for their death rather than any other reason - because apparently thats how you can make a half dead person drunk, since they can't drink alcohol (due to being half dead). And Bennson held the DA in her arms while she died. Stabler's been away on a training course and returns like an hour after she died and Benson's "I'm so glad you came back" ... <3 <3 <3 Oh My heart. How does she go on for the next 10 years without him.
Just.
Urgh I'm going to have to watch the next 10 years also. How will I be able to get through this. It is on the promise that he returns somewhere around season 20 with cross over stuff.
