Happy hippie Sunday to all.

I don't know that I'm downsizing, but I'm doing my "death cleaning." Swedish Death Cleaning, it's a thing. Basically getting rid of stuff you don't want/need so your kids don't have to. I have many eBay auctions running right now. I have lost almost 40 pounds and I have turned over my wardrobe, so all the clothing that is still in good shape is being sold or has been sold on eBay. The stuff not so good has gone to charity. I've cleaned closets and found stuff I haven't touched in 9 years. It has been sorted and sold or donated. Except for the light bulbs. I have 25 60W LED light bulbs. I have no idea why I have so many. I have a bone china teacup collection, and some other pieces of china. Most will be sold eventually. At least one piece will be going to the post office on Monday. I hate running garage sales, and it is bitterly cold here, NO ONE has or goes to garage sales in winter in Omaha. eBay lets me do it from home in my pajamas as I have time. I have some pieces of furniture that will go to Goodwill or other charity, and I have a large piece I will be offering on Freecycle. Less is more.

Why is it that nearly all of the ladies who show up with high compatibility scores for me are in ...

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 9, 2019:

I strongly suggest you ignore the compatibility scores. It doesn't tell you if you will have any chemistry with that person or not. I am acquainted with a local guy who is 100% compatibility score. We've dated previously, and we belong to the same Humanist group, I see him pretty often. He's a nice guy, but we're not interested in each other, no chemistry at all. Another local guy I know well, 81% score, and no interest in him as a boyfriend. Compatibility scores tell you how many superficial things you have in common, they have no way of calculating if there is going to be any attraction. People are far more complex than any compatibility score.

How do I get out of jury duty?

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 9, 2019:

Call in and explain your situation. I had just come home from the hospital with a newborn after a C-section that I was nursing, and I was handed a summons for jury duty. I told the deputy what the situation was and he followed up on it and I was excused. Or if you have to go in for a day make sure you express opinions that would not be acceptable in the case, as in adamant against the death penalty, or what ever, or that you have knowledge of or know the individuals in the case. I knew a lady who was called for jury duty. She had shared a cabin with the defendant at summer camp 20 years before. She was excused.

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 8, 2019:

Draw up a warm or hot bath, add epsom salts, grated ginger, and baking soda. Add essential oils if you have them. Soak for as long as you can stand it. The ginger will make you feel HOT all over, but the combination is very soothing to achy joints. I take tumeric in capsules. Be careful with the ACV, it is so acidic it can erode your teeth enamel. I eat chia and flax nearly every day.

What do you choose?

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 8, 2019:

I read something quite a few years ago that has stuck with me. The secret to happiness is Something to do, Someone to love, and Something to look forward to. I am a crafter, have a decent home, two cats, and live alone, I ALWAYS have something to do. I have children and grandchildren that I love more than life. And generally there is always something to look forward to. I look forward to participating on Ag.com. I will see the grandbabies soon. Hopefully I will be starting a new job soon. Yes, I still have to do my taxes which makes me wanna run far far away, but other than that I'm pretty happy.

I wouldn't have paid attention to him, but he visited my profile. He's a believer, and his English isn't great. Claims to be from Roanoke, VA and following women in NC and VA. Joined Jan 25, and seems to have been inactive until today. Seems to be trying to get points to move up, and yes, he's a widower. His photo did not pop, but I don't know how to do the Pintrest search. He smells scammy to me.

I wouldn’t say they are enjoying it, but they aren’t too much in a hurry to go back inside. Lol

As long as it is not Elizabeth, my daughter and son-in-law's cat. Elizabeth is nearly pure back, and does not like strangers. She will likely try to take a chunk of you off. Even when I was at her house daily and FED her for several weeks, she did not warm up to me.

Valentine's Day is coming up.

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 7, 2019:

To me, Valentines is a product of Hallmark cards and intensive marketing. Major objective is to sell crap you don't need, and give unrealistic expectation of what "should" be, so you end up disappointed and miserable, and fall into that candy trap. I'm spending V day as I normally spend every other Thursday, dinner with kids and grands. It just happened to fall on V day, and because it is Thursday it's a school night and regular routine will be followed.

Just had a weird conversation with a co-worker.

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 7, 2019:

I think I would have had to ask him how he decided it was a religion. Atheists don't hold services to worship a supreme being. We don't have schools to teach Atheism to our youth. Our buildings are not tax havens. We don't pay a leader and her/his staff to preach to us or at us. Atheists don't advertise that we're a bunch of friendly people that you'd like to spend time with. We don't go door to door trying to win converts. We don't visit the airports handing out leaflets. Atheism as far as I can tell sucks at being a religion.

Interesting, and I hate to be a killjoy... but I'm reading Stephen Hawking's last book, and he discusses time travel in one of the chapters. I don't think it is going to happen in my lifetime, or my grandchildren's lifetime. It is a really good book, very readable considering Stephen's intellect.I highly recommend it. It is Brief Answers to the Big Questions.

Why would someone not have a profile picture on a dating site?

HippieChick58 comments on Feb 6, 2019:

For anonymity/privacy is one reason, you can do reverse look ups of pictures and might find out who the person really is. Or because of ego, you don't think you're good looking enough to attract attention. There could be a whole host of other reasons.

Oh yeah, I heard that discussion frequently. I even tried to let/force my then husband make some decisions about the household. He didn't like it!!!! The Xian theory is wife is under the husband who is under Jesus, and that makes husband head of household. Sort of like many of the laws in England and the US way back when. All in all, Xianity just likes to treat women like chattel, like mindless children, even though Proverbs 31 talks about a woman making decisions and running a business. It is not a real workable approach in most households/families/lives. It's so bad it is not even archaic.
