lol As a child do you remember if the thought ever come to you, 'When I'm as old as she is I'm not gonna be fat like her but be skinny'? :)

My son was around 9 when he was given Playboy (slightly hidden under my son's mattress.) As a young girl, I remember being shocked by the photos in Geographic of bare breasted women, but more then that it was the look of some women's breasts. (What's wrong with their breasts, so flat and...

My sister is 85, I'm 84. I don't remember how many years ago it was she had facial plastic surgery.. She looked fine, --I think she may have had it done to look nicer for her husband. Anyway, in spite of the surgery, her tendency towards having many vertical wrinkles in her face have...

My son worked scrunched up on his knees for hours as he worked in small spaces in the jets. That is the only reason that seems plausible for his hand and feet neuropathy and his knee pain. The only male influence my son had growing up was from a couple of 'big brothers'. One would bring his...

Before my mother died: all my sister and her sons had done for our mother and stepfather was, at times, to visit them on weekends. Two of her sons once took my stepfather to his favorite bar. I think this was after my mothers death, & they refused--having too much fun I guess. smowing of hers...

Oh for heavens sake, nations have more serious problems to solve than getting/teaching citizens of every nation into learning the metric system and using it only. :) This one American citizen had even gotten confused over the meaning of some words a Canadian friend used. lol

Talk about being put through "misery" from a one year older sibling, once our domineering mother had died...bam! she changed from a kind daughter driving many miles to visit our mother and stepfather occasionally on weekends to a daughter coming to our stepfather to help him on weekends with...

Working crunched up on his knees in tight spaces in the jets may have eventually caused my son's hands and feet neuropathy. It does not run in the family. His Essential tremor shaking is inherited from me, His came on a little over the years--slowly, after the Air Force. Neither boys (nor...

Oh if only my son and grandson had had someone that would teach them. My son was in the Air Force for 11 years. Worked on Jets. My grandson is manager of some restaurant now--he's quite intelligent. My son has physical problems that have kept him from getting hired for any job, Bad...

Yes, I would. I just regret choosing the man I married who was their self-involved father. My son needed a real man, like fureverywhere--also my very macho grandson who would have eagerly done all his activities. My grandson wanted to learn karate, parents wouldn't take the time to sign him...

Just yesterday I talked to my daughter about her work at counseling & she said she doesn't 'tell' a troubled person what to do about their problem, but instead tries to guide them to various ways they could try, to solve their problem(s). She won't discount their views on their problems as...

Are police so instructed to train their trigger finger to pull their gun's trigger over and over again even when their target is obviously incapacitated? Something I've noticed that when a person who is accused of causing harm to another dares to ask the arresting officer what he's being...

One of the homeowners guns should have been a paintball gun and used it to shoot every loud-mouth threatening protester for identification by the police. :)

Years ago, when my eldest daughter was studying psychology, I was pretty sure she'd analyze me. So one day I said to her, 'just don't analyze me.' She looked at me like it never crossed her mind. Right. lol It was a bit hard to be around her during those years, wondering if she was. One...
