A Patient Person Receives The Best Love Story? What Do U Think?

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

It's a nice platitude. I'm not counting on it happening.

Hey boomers since the kids went back to school, what grade were you in 50 years ago and 60 years ...

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

Well, 60 years ago I was 9 months old. 50 years ago I had just started 5th grade, I think.

Competition: healthy or not?

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I am here for interaction, for conversation, and for pissing off conservatives. Oh wait, I meant for community. I love how the conversations can range and the stuff I learn. I love hearing the opinions of others. I love the support and the camaraderie that has developed. The points are nice, but I'm not here for the points. I am not so focused on getting points that I'm going to spend more time here. I've been out of work/retired for a week. I've got other stuff I want to get done. If I was driven by points I'd be here more. I just don't/can't multitask like that. I've been here for about 9 months and I don't have plans to drop off anytime soon. I'll just keep plugging along and let the points come as the come.

Would you ride o on the back of an elephant in the jungle of Africa?

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I would love to go to Africa, but probably not ride the elephant. I'm not much for camping. The home cooked gourmet meal and a movie on the sofa sounds good too.

I remember my parents had one but not this color. Do you know of anybody that still has one?

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I think my folks had one, I have never had one. I prefer quilts for my bedspread.

I am preparing to depart this site so I am transferring over my groups.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

Why are you leaving?

Several judge people that have had relationships but never married or have had kids.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I am very attached to my kids, they are a big piece of my life and there are grandchildren. Anyone I am in a serious relationship with will have to accept that my kids/grandbabies are going to be frequent visitors and a good part of our social life. I had granddaughter for 9 hours yesterday, we had a blast. Someone who has never had their own children might not want that in his life. Children are messy, noisy, time consuming, and at times exhausting. My ex, father of those children used to call them sponges, they soak up time, money, and energy. My middle daughter loves being an auntie, but has no desire for kids of her own, she has had that mindset since she was a teenager. I respect that. To have or not to have children is a very personal decision. For me kids was the right choice. We all have to make that choice, it doesn't mean we are good or bad people. If I meet someone and he doesn't want anything to do with kids, then he is not the right person for me. Doesn't mean he's a bad person, he just has different needs/tolerances.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I feel like I just got sucked into the church of happy feelings. There is no benevolent spirit/being/magician looking out for us. It would be so much easier if there were but the bottom line is life is hard and we're on our own.

LOL! Nasty stuff.

I believe this to be true:

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I agree, totally and fully.

I love my son ❤????

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

My ex would have done that. He was mortified our one of our daughters had gay friends. He didn't want "those boys" in our home. I told him he was safe and she could invite in anyone she wanted. I think I stayed married to protect the kids. People love who they love, there isn't enough love in the world, why shame or restrict who loves whom. As a parent there is nothing that could make me not love one of my children. I love this child possibly more because she has such an open and loving heart, and she was my biggest challenge as a teenager, but she an amazing adult.

Let's make an anti- bucket list, comment something you'll never do again. ??

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

I will never marry again, there are financial disincentives to ever remarry. Have children, mother nature closed that process down.

We finished the Natchez Trace this afternoon, a true American treasure.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

It was only about 90° in Omaha yesterday but the humidity was high. I had my 20 month old granddaughter for several hours. We went outside for a bit. She was loving it, running and finding stuff to get into. Grammy OTOH was melting. We didn't stay out long, and after we came back in she was not up very much longer. I am ready for fall temps. I lived in Louisiana about 35 years ago, was not sad to see it in my rearview mirror.

Sorry if you've seen this a million times already, but maybe it will be new to someone.

We said goodbye to my mom on Friday in a lovely service.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 16, 2018:

Now you grieve for her loss and the loss of what might have been. Keep what was right in the relationship, make peace with what wasn't right because it can't be changed. When your grieving is complete you move forward, but only when you're ready.

I'm sorry your birthday did not turn out as you hoped. It's hard when you feel over looked. I still think this site is peachy keen, and I don't think I went to any of my HS football games. I am not a football fan and my wicked stepmother would not let us go out in the evenings unless it was to work. I am not any type. I hope for you that next year is better, and I sincerely hope that you are still on this site. I plan to be, and I enjoy reading your posts and comments.

What are the best hobbies? I am partial to fishing however I like many other avenues.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 14, 2018:

I am a seamstress. I make clothing and home decor. I make quilts, currently have three in progress, they will be same fabrics but different arrangements, one for each of my girls. I knit and crochet. Current project is a dishcloth. I used to make beaded jewelry, and then the holes in the beads got too small. If reading is a hobby I have a stack of library books waiting to be read. I make soaps, lotions, lip balms. Soap is fun, like a chemistry experiment. I garden, it is tomato harvest time :)

This made me really LOL

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 14, 2018:

I did lose friends but not real life or close friends. I did unfriend some relatives on FB, ya can't choose your relatives, but I don't live close to them either. I have found a few new friends through local political activities or my Humanist group. The group seems to be highly liberal.

A question for the womenfolk: I've a theory.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 14, 2018:

The way I see it, too many men want a NSA arrangement, especially men in my age group. Or conversely when I was first single, about 10 years ago I met lots of guys looking for someone to take care of their kids. Recently I have encountered some men looking for "nurses with purses." To me NSA says he is looking to get laid and doesn't really care about me. I'm not looking to raise more kids and I'm not looking to be a nurse. When a woman passes menopause and has been without for a length of time, care needs to be taken, the playground has changed in some ways. I like men and would like to be in a relationship with a man again someday. But I want a lasting relationship, that takes time. I don't want to rush, and I don't want to rush to bed either.
