We have general posts, and then we have groups. Some groups you have to level up before you can join. The posts you're seeing you can respond to, and the more you respond or post the faster you level up. The levels just help to keep out scammers, we do get a few now and again. Welcome to the site, I've been here just over a year. I LOVE it here, great folks great conversations. Did you have a greeter when your joined up? Your greeter is a great person to ask questions of. And you've done well in figuring out how to make posts. You can find an explanation of the points and other stuff under the FAQs under the Learn tab. I hope this helps, and I hope you enjoy Ag.com.

Two posts in one day! Sorry guys.

HippieChick58 comments on Jan 1, 2019:

When I was working full time and over time, there were lots of posts on FB that I just did not have the time or mental energy to get back to. I'd plan to circle back, but there just were not enough hours in the day. So, my guess is that your posts to your friends just did not rise to the level of needing to be responded to for whatever reason they have. The question for you is do you feel a need to rock the boat and confront them with the possible outcome being they unfriend you, or can you live with the status quo of not being near the top of the priorities list?

In the end I will not waste anymore time on trying to keep someone around.

It is a hard lesson for some to learn, but once you get it, it is liberating! Know your worth and never settle for less.

HippieChick58 comments on Jan 1, 2019:

Wow, SaucyCheryl, being a step parent is HARD! I had one from age 15. She was not a good parent, or for that matter not a good person. Teens are hard. One of my kids was headed in a really bad direction and we got her involved with a Caregiver Night Out program. The program provided crafts and entertainment for young adults with disabilities while their caregivers got some time to themselves. My challenging teen had to be threatened to go in the first night, and when I picked her up she was SO EXCITED!!! She had a fabulous time and went eagerly after that. I think that was the point of change for her. She still had her moments, but today she is an amazing person; grounded, compassionate, and kick ass and take names for the less advantaged. Good luck in reaching and guiding your challenging children. Mothering is the best job I ever had.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 31, 2018:

Normal tends to shift, it is simply what you become accustomed to. I want a shift to tolerance, civility, respect, honesty, learning, intelligence, and common sense. Yes, I want utopia. Mostly I want Der Drumpf out of the WH in handcuffs with shackles on his ankles and this cell phone in purgatory.

Just Happy New Year to all of you! Hopefully this new year will bring some type of normal life to...

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 31, 2018:

Define "normal". For me, normal takes a shift from time to time. My hope for 2019 is that order is restored, intelligence, truth, compassion, tolerance, and kindness will become the norm in the government and in life all around. For all of us for 2019 I hope it is a year of growth and dreams coming true.

I never make New Year's Resolutions. During the year if I feel a change is needed, I do it then. I stopped eating sugar about mid year, and after I stopped working I have started exercising. I have made good progress towards my goal. I did have sweets at Thanksgiving and Christmas, but the cookies that my daughter sent home with me did not make it into the house.They were intercepted by the trash can outside the garage.

I hope the new doc is what you need and good for you for being proactive and seeking a new doc. That is hard. And the letter is a very nice touch. Medical professionals are not one size fits all, sometimes you have to try more than one to find the right fit. Kinda like clothes shopping.

So, with New Year's Eve upon us and the close of 2018.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 31, 2018:

What worked was that I gave up sugar this last part of this past year and started exercising regularly. Net result was a weight loss and size loss. I may need new jeans again soon. Which is a good thing except what didn't work was my job and I've been unemployed since September. I have not seriously looked until just recently and I have an interview scheduled for Wednesday. What else didn't work was not addressing the stress my job was causing me until almost too late. In the future I will try to be more proactive about issues I'm having with my job. My timing for being off was bad, due to the stock market my finances took a harder hit than I expected. And my car is having issues. After I get back to work I may need to replace the car, which I hate to do but it is 12 years old.
