Take a trip down memory lane with me? What was a good moment for you?

[7Phoenix7]

This year for me was far from the best. I've suffered the heartbreak of losing important people in my life.

But it's nice to look back and remember the good moments. My favorite cousin came to California to visit. We spent a week together watching movies, pretending to be kids again at Disneyland, and roasting marshmallows during a beach bonfire. We laughed and reminisced about our childhood and all the silly stuff we used do.

🔥🍫

That was probably my favorite part of 2023. Whats something good (big or small) that happened in 2023 for you?

[BoopBoopBeep]

There were a couple of times I didn't die. I was appreciative of those, but honestly every moment with one of my rescue kittens is icing on the cake. Every day on this side of the grass is a good moment. After they changed my meds I haven't seen my BP drop down to the 60/40 range again. That was a troubling hour or so. I was granted another year of remote work. Huge plus. My rescue kittens and my mom's rescue dog are all in relatively good health and largely happy. My mom's the best carpenter I know and it's afforded me some wonderful bespoke furniture/built-ins and a fraction of the cost of flat pack crap. There were a number of races I wanted to do that it looked uncertain if I'd get those in before I died. I knocked out a bunch of them in 2023. I was able to pay some vet bills for some people with sick fur babies. That was rewarding. I've improved greatly my post-heart attack meal plans.

[7Phoenix7]

Thanks for sharing. Thanks for showing love to the kittens and other animals. I'm glad you improved your diet plans, take care of yourself. 🩵

[BoopBoopBeep]

Stuff is far less enjoyable without the fat in there. I've had to modify a lot of stuff. Cheese is so limited that's been hard. Really have to up your crust/sauce game to make pizza still good. That was a struggle. Mac and cheese and grilled cheese are harder to synthesize, but I have a fake ricotta down that's pretty passable.

Winning a championship in hockey was a big one for me. That’s the high I chase in life, so catching said high for the first time in a decade was rejuvenating for my elderly ass, lmao

Also, this one pretty lady also started hiding out in my bushes, rummaging through my garbage cans, etc, so that’s for sure welcome😜

Sounds like ‘23 was a tough one for you, and I’m real sorry about that😢 But you seem really cool and seem like you have a very good soul from the few days we’ve interacted, so my hopes for you are high for 2024🙏 Hope you have a happy and safe NYE, and a great bounce-back year in ‘24!!!🥳🍾

[7Phoenix7]

We're gonna fight! Lol I said I was hiding in the bushes not rummaging through the garbage. 💀

Congratulations on the win, that's great to hear! Thank you for the kind words, you seem like good person too. Happy New Year! 😊🤗

[WhiteSteve]

Ok, we’ll blame it on the raccoons🦝 Probably was them who were rifling through my dresser and left my boxers all torn through too, and there’s definitely some missing🤨🙄😂

But yeah, thanks! Sports keep me young, or at least delude me into believing so, lmao, and winning is icing on the cake. No need to thank me for any kind words, I just call it how I see it👊 Now go put 2024 in a chokehold💪

[sage2021]

I would say all of the precious moments of laughter my boyfriend and I shared. We were so funny, separately and together 🤗🤣

[7Phoenix7]

That's beautiful.

[sage2021]

@7Phoenix7
Thank you. We had some pretty good laughing sessions together 😂😭🤭🤗
I didn't know if you know or not but he died suddenly September 7th 3 months ago.
RIP Patrick 🌹

[7Phoenix7]

I do remember you mentioning that. My condolences.. RIP Patrick. It's nice to think of those moments. I love those good laughing sessions 🙃

[sage2021]

@7Phoenix7
There were times I made him laugh so hard he ran in the bathroom just to catch a breath. But the two of us together could have done some professional comedy.
I'm sitting her wanting to laugh with him, instead I can't stop crying. Sorry, I am just having a bad grief day. 😥

[7Phoenix7]

Yes, the laughs that leave you breathless are the best! And that's okay, and normal. If I was there I'd give you a hug 🫂

[mandyfire98]

It's meeting my boyfriend. Our first date, our first night together, our first romantic trip together.

[7Phoenix7]

Awww, 2023 is a special year for you guys. When did you meet your girlfriend?

[mandyfire98]

I've known her since college

[7Phoenix7]

Nicee

[Billlewis]

Being viciously teased repeatedly by several beautiful women on here.

[7Phoenix7]

Lol you're freakin hilarious..

[Billlewis]

Yes, ma'am, thank you very much.

[Sparkie460]

Teasing won't be tolerated on this site. Every woman on this site will have to leave so Bill won't be teased any more. There will be no more women teasing him about his little needle dick or saying what a little pussy wimp he is.

[7Phoenix7]

@Sparkie460 lol don't take away his fun

[Wallythewalrus2]

Reuniting with a good friend I really hadn’t spoken to in two years. When she reached out to me on here, I realized how much I missed that period of time in my life and just how much of a beautiful young woman she’s turned into! She gives me a lot of grief on here but I am so thankful she is in my life again and I hope our friendship continues to grow.

[7Phoenix7]

So sweet, is it the pretty girl you always interact with on here?

[Wallythewalrus2]

Yes! But I don’t wanna mention her name, because she’s embarrassed she knows me. Lol

[7Phoenix7]

okay 🫢 lol

[Beckybooboo]

I would never be embarrassed by knowing the lovable, kind and at times goofy Wally. I echo everything you said! I often think how different it would have been had you not been in my life at that time? A 16 yr old girl, moving to a new city and leaving everything she knew behind. From the moment you walked over to our house to introduce yourself, we all knew we had already made a friend and we all saw you as a part of our family. Happy New year, Waldo.❤️😘 And @7Phoenix7 Thank you for the nice compliment! If I’m not the girl you thought he was talking about, disregard what I just said. 😂 😂 I hope you have an amazing New Year also!

[7Phoenix7]

@Beckybooboo lol you are her. Aww thank you guys for being so cute. Loved reading both of your comments

[Slingblade1126]

My wife and kids surprised me with a puppy. Last year I lost my best friend, a black lab, after she’d been by my side for fourteen years, I said I would never get another dog but yes, they knew deep down I wanted one, so they surprised me on my birthday. It only took about thirty seconds for me to fall in love with her.

[7Phoenix7]

Aww, congrats on the new puppy 🥰

[NathanDavis]

probably... the graduation of the little one in my family, milestones

it's been a bless for me, to be part of their lives (=

these are the kind of things I live my life for... the people in my life, and their happiness... which is also my happiness

[7Phoenix7]

You've been a blessing to them too 🩷

[NathanDavis]

that we try (=

[Joshydavid25]

"We spent a week together watching movies, pretending to be kids again at Disneyland, and roasting marshmallows during a beach bonfire."

That's so nice... Me? I tripped, I fell, and looked up to see that I was still alive with my face smashed on the ground... Best moment of this year..

[7Phoenix7]

Omg ouch. That was the best? 😬

[Joshydavid25]

Why do you have that big ol smile on your face hmm hmm? 🤔😂..

But, I guess I could say getting stronger on the bench press was the highlight on my year. 😄

[7Phoenix7]

I didn't want to laugh 😅

How much can you lift now?

[Joshydavid25]

This is actually how I imagined your face.. Lmao..

The highest so far for has been 295lbs on the flat bench, and 305lbs on the decline..

[7Phoenix7]

Ok now I'm laughing lmao that was my face 🤣

Dang, that's pretty good. Keep it up

[Joshydavid25]

Mmhmmm 😂..

Aw thank you know. 😌.. A brotha trying to see how far his natural genetics can take him.

My niece who I have not seen 1n 14 years reached out to me and said that she wants to visit me and my kids. I had a big blowout with her mother and have not seen her or my brother in all that time.

She came a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving and she was all grown up. It actually was really nice to see her.

[7Phoenix7]

Yea, that sounds so nice.

[exitseven]

I was afraid that she needed a kidney. but it really was nice to see her. she was like one of the kids.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

In July, I took a week long vacation trip with my parents, sister, niece, and nephew to Panama City Beach, Florida (United States of America).

[7Phoenix7]

That sounds fun

[EnglishArtsteacher]

It was! It was a great time!

[Forceinhand]

The best moment came right before this year ended when I signed a contract for a new house on the countryside haha. Other interesting things have happened as well of course, but you already know of one of them.

[7Phoenix7]

Congratulations, that's awesome!

[Forceinhand]

Thanks! :)

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Buying myself a new cell phone has brought happiness to me, the old one lasted me going on almost 3 years, but I got Android 13 and happy. Happy New Year's Day !!!

[7Phoenix7]

Cool, enjoy your new phone. Happy New Year's!

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Thank you, Happy New Year

[TiaNour]

Meeting family members that I haven’t seen since I was 5

[7Phoenix7]

[Kelly6]

Good memory was my honeymoon , me and hubby on long trip stop at multiple resorts

[7Phoenix7]

That's a lot of sexy time 🔥

[Kelly6]

@7Phoenix7
It was not only about sex, it was also adventure as well

[7Phoenix7]

Yes, I can imagine

[Anonymous]

Christmas came early for me this year. I bought the dip heavily in August, Sept. And Oct. And I got a 20% return over Nov. And Dec.

You know it's a good year when you make more outside of your job then you do AT your job.

[7Phoenix7]

Wow, nice!

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah, let's hope for more of the same in 2024.

[loveslongnails]

The day I had sex with a gorgeous ballet instructor named Ashley. Let's just say she was flexible.

[7Phoenix7]

Oh yea, I bet that was fun lol

[loveslongnails]

It was without question one of the best times of my life.

[7Phoenix7]

Hahaha 😋

[Anonymous]

When I experienced your charming personality for the first time.

[7Phoenix7]
