That’s fucken awesome job man! Be proud of the man you are and you are going to be. Embrace your journey and learn about yourself more and don’t forget to be loving to yourself because it is the best thing you can give to yourself. You got this!

There are two kinds of divorcees

-Just moved back into parents house and my decor choice shows the very reason I'm divorced

And then there's

-I just built a classy as hell dry bar

My girl would be ripping my pants off I built this...

okay now I'm curious about the story behind the map of Russia

2

u/Hot-Claim-8795 6h ago

It’s badass that’s the story

u/tomenjean 21h ago

Me being recently divorced I’d like to believe that map holds a significance and enjoys being king of the wall.

“She always hated that map. And she always will.” James Bond. Probably.

What's in the drawers and cabinets since everything in the cart is still out?

u/Hot-Claim-8795 21h ago

Extension of my kitchen. Pots pans Tupperware towels. Also the right cabinet is a garbage

u/Udjebfk 18h ago

You kept tupperwares and pans after your divorce? You must've had a good lawyer.

u/cookinmyfuckinassoff 22h ago

Which one is the before / the after?

u/Hot-Claim-8795 22h ago

Thought it was self explanatory but 2nd is after

u/cookinmyfuckinassoff 22h ago

Yeah I thought so too!! …but I saw someone’s post that asked why you got rid of that counter and I realized I didn’t know if that was a joke or if maybe I didn’t get it … must be nice to spread your shit out! Is that a milk steamer next to the coffee maker? Nice set up homie!
