Are you an adventurous eater?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

I love ethnic foods. I don't eat bugs or hot/spicy foods, but I will try almost anything.

Thanks to cannabis, I am (hopefully not jinxing) about to hit the six months seizure free mark.

The bond of community in this group is a marvel!??

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

It is what keeps me coming back.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

My kids tell me frequently how much they appreciate me, and I tell them all the time how proud of them I am and how I love the people they have become.

Remember you or your mom using this?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

I have a few of them and use them as well!

I can't have kids, so instead I have an Asha "Nugget" Morgoth.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

I have human kids, and they're awesome but I recognize they are not for everyone. I have almost always had a cat, and I tell everyone they are my fur children. They never ask for the car keys, will never need braces, and won't go to college. In fact, a potential relationship interest cooled off when I let him know cats ARE my kids and I will always have cats. Love me, love my cat. Simple as that.

A Sisyphean task.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

Life is made from the choices we make and the lessons we learn. Good hypothetical situation, and I don't have an answer except that life rarely works out as planned. You spin the wheel and take your chances and move forward, no do overs.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

I would not do a one night stand with anyone. The 20 year old me would have, but she was kinda stupid and not selective or wise.

OK - Advice needed.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

Nope, I am hanging on to my job as long as I can. My manager and I have decided I am not working out, so she is going to see what is available in the company that I can move to. They do want to keep me and it is a big company. If nothing is available they will give me a few weeks to find something else. I could end up unemployed in a few weeks. I do have some savings and I'm over 60 so could hit my retirement savings. But it is scary as hell.

What is something in your life that is a point of constant anxiety/stress?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

My job. For two years I've struggled with it. Now we've come to the conclusion I need a new position. My manager is going to reach out to her peers in other departments. Either I will make a lateral move, or be out of the company. I can deal with a bit of unemployment, but it is kind of a relief and scary at the same time.

Good dog Donnie, good dog.

Have you ever deliberately gone out in the rain and played as an adult?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

LOL, played football in the rain at Ft. Devens, MA, I was 19. Yeah we got in trouble cuz one of the players sprained a finger which took them out of training for a couple of weeks.

If you could be alone with tRump in a locked room for 5 minutes what would you do?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 6, 2018:

Nope, never want to be that close to that man. That amount of evil/insanity is just too much for me to deal with.

Which one did you have? I had both of them at one time.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

I think at one time we had both of them. I preferred the slinky.

Sir help me?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

This made me think of my childhood kitty. She was so sweet and so accepting. My sister dressed her up in baby clothes. This is Cocoa. She was my first heart cat, and the most gentle cat we ever had. When a small child picked her up, she'd go limp. And when that child put her down, she'd head for the hills. She was perfect for a house full of kids.

Sir help me?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

I am not related to anyone on this site, and there are 4 people I know in real life on the site. Two are from my humanist group, one person I went out of my way to meet, and one person that I know found the site. My real life family is pretty awesome but busy with their own lives.

A bit literal.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

Did you ever read Kahlil Gibran's book The Prophet. It is kinda religious, but lots of good stuff in it. On Marriage he wrote: Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Getting in on the act.

What Change would you like to see in Politics?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

I'd like to see an end to the two party system. It does not serve the people adequately. There are so many other shade of political affiliation that needs to be represented. We need to end gerrymandering. We need shorter election seasons. We need to get big money and private influence out of politics, let campaigns be run with tax money, spending limits, and total transparency. We need to end the electoral college, one person one vote. Corporations are not people and should not have a vote. Lobbyists should be banned. Congress needs a heck of a pay cut and total transparency of all donations.

We've a bunch of these guys in our garden this year:

Around 2000 I developed ptsd and major depression (clinical, dibilitating, on dissability).

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

I am so sorry you've had such a hard time. You are definitely NOT alone. I am struggling with you and I am terrified. (and now that I have admitted that I'm also crying which is likely a good thing, but sucks.) But no AJ, we're here for you, I'm here for you. Stay strong.

Today's pet rock.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

This is especially funny to me. Back in the 70s Pet Rocks were a thing. I won one from a radio contest in 1975 or 1976. I still have it and I've moved 23 times! I am so proud of my little rock, he is smarter than the president!! Who'd a thunk!

Thank you all for your great support regarding my post [agnostic.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

You sound like you are surrounded by naysayers and really crappy people. Just a suggestion, but filter what you discuss with people who have a track record of being unsupportive. I know it is hard, but there are not many people I share very much with outside people I really trust. For me, that is kids, my sister, and one GF. And one of my kids gets a strongly edited version because of her living circumstances. How do you define "being in a relationship/" If you have been with someone for an extended period of time that is a relationship. If you've lived with someone but not married them, you've been in a relationship.

I knew it.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

My cats are better company for me than some people I met. I am glad to be a minion to my furballs. They know I think I am in charge, and they let me keep that delusion.

Good for you. Work on your first. Be the best you that you can be. Be true to you. Then if that person doesn't show up or doesn't recognize you, you'll still be amazing.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 5, 2018:

I'd be open to meeting a much younger man, but I've dated a few and it wasn't the greatest experience. Now a significantly older man would concern me. I realize life has no guarantees, but the odds are not great for a long term relationship.

Who has had a positive relationship with a father/mother-in-law?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 4, 2018:

My late former inlaws were OK. Their middle son, my husband could do no wrong in their eyes. They were great for the kids, paid for their college and braces. They were kinda cold to their daughters in law. We were not on the same level as their sons, not really family. But we usually lived many miles away so it really didn't matter.

What Does Your Saturday’s Usually Consist Of?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 4, 2018:

Single and live alone. I do what I wanna do for the most part. Sometime during the weekend I fix lunches and breakfasts for the next week. I generally do laundry, shop, maybe do some cleaning. This weekend I worked some overtime and I'm babysitting the grandson. He's down for the night already. Tomorrow I need to get my nails done, and after the cooking is done (or before) I will do what ever pleases me. Napping would be amazing.

Get better or bitter.

Bitter makes people avoid you, so I want it to make me better.

First of all, TALK TO HER! Ask her about her, what makes her excited, what makes her sad. What was her happiest childhood memory. Get to know her, and then you both can figure it out.

Some say there is no mental illness.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 4, 2018:
