@knutsonamy216 @Chewy Might learn how to swim without sinking her head too, TBD.

this is her “75, sunny and I conquered IMHA” mood… and her “might catch a frisbee by the end of the summer, might just shake them and put a hole in the middle instead.” thank you @Chewy and spunkypup.com for the endless supply.

@carlypearce @knutsonamy216 Birkenstocks weren’t my best choice but Maaaaahnomen is. See ya soon!

@knutsonamy216 @kknutson001 Aww yay! Be careful!!!

So excited to be back in Minnesota! Who wants to brave the snow tonight? I saved a few tickets for y’all in Mahnomen ♥️

@carlypearce @knutsonamy216 🤍🤍🤍

@carlypearce See ya soon!!

Back on the road this weekend after Australia 🤍 Midwest, I’ve missed you!! Come see us! carlypearce.com/#/

I kept texting my ex-coworker after she quit. Just memes. Funny stuff from the office. “You’re missing this chaos.” She’d reply with laughing emojis. We did this for months. Then she stopped responding. I figured she moved on. Made new friends. Forgot about our inside jokes. Kept sending memes anyway. Once a week. No responses. Just kept going. Felt stupid but couldn’t stop. She’d been my work best friend. Only person who got my humor. Six months of silence. Then one day. “I’m so sorry I haven’t replied. I’ve been in treatment. Depression got really bad after I left that job. Your memes were the only thing that made me smile some days. I’d read them in group therapy. Saved every single one. They kept me going” I sat at my desk crying. Had no idea she was struggling. No idea those stupid memes mattered. “Why didn’t you tell me?” She replied. “I couldn’t tell anyone. But knowing you were still thinking of me. Still trying to make me laugh. It helped more than you know” We meet for coffee now. Once a month. She’s doing better. Showed me her phone. Folder labeled “Hope.” Every meme I sent. Hundreds of them. “On bad days I scroll through these. Remind myself someone cared enough to keep trying.” I still send memes. But now she responds. And now I know they matter more than I thought. —Jake M., Texas

I’m losing faith in my fellow Minnesotans. I made my reg Saturday supply run to the grocery store. Many empty shelves. People-it’s a snowstorm. No matter how bad it gets, you’ll be out and at ‘em Monday. This isn’t Little House on the Prairie.

@knutsonamy216 @pepsi Did you get your Pepsi?

Living in MN is a lot right now for those of you who are wondering. Yes, it’s as intense as it looks.

You’ve got your questions, but you’re too scared to ask. I’m just a sinner, who’s been where you’re at.

@carlypearce just listened to your post on instagram - coming from a former pastor - holy shit and thank you from all the church girls, but me specifically.

Remind me why I left Texas and moved back? At least I learned something new today

@therealreality It tells me the same thing weekly

Chat gpt lowkey telling me my brain is wired weird

I have coached 21 classes this week and I have no voice and my body hurts. I have 3 more tomorrow. How tf is Taylor Swift upright and talking after the eras tour? Don’t say it’s money. Let me live.

Spotify wrapped reminding that “Day One” got me through my day 1 and 2025. @carlypearce, we did it - thank you 🫶🏼

Truly unfortunate that it takes running at 8mph+ on a tread in an over stimulating environment to calm my nervous system down.

This is one of my new favorite pictures @carlypearce @TenderAng @therealreality @kknutson001

Got to celebrate the debut of “Dream Come True” on the stage where all my dreams were born. So thankful to the @opry for having me on such a special night— my mama was listening from home 🥹

I’d also drive 13 hours any day to recreate it. That’s all. #tequila

NYE has never been the countdown for me. @theashleycooke album release countdown will now life rent free, forever. #starspangledbanner #bluebirdcafe

the one where we drive 13 hours to see @carlypearce on a drop weekend and i take work calls with a hotspot while @knutsonamy216 laughs at me
