Would you want a long distant relationship?

HippieChick58 comments on Mar 9, 2024:

I tried long distance a few times, with men close to my age. One of them I met in person, I went to see him, he came to see me, and we took some trips. He thought moving out here would be a step in the right direction to get his life back in order. In the end it came down to he "couldn't" move because his mom had a "health scare." IOW mama tightened the leash. She didn't want her boy to fly the coop. That was my lesson, I never did long distance again. Even Council Bluffs (just across the Nebraska/Iowa border) is pushing it for me.

My life goals are almost accomplished.

Ultra-processed foods linked to 32 health problems: What to know.

HippieChick58 comments on Mar 3, 2024:

I usually eat "real" foods, I try to avoid additives and ultra processed foods. I eat less meat, which essentially means I usually don't eat meat unless my kids are coming over to dinner or I'm at their house for dinner, or I'm picking up fast food lunch. In fall/winter I cook a batch of soup every week, and freeze it in pint jars, and thaw a jar for lunch every day. In spring/summer I make salads with quinoa and lots of veggies for lunches. My downfall is sugar/chocolate. I was avoiding all sugar/chocolate and lost some weight. Then sh1t happened, and I need to kick the sugar addiction again.

How to get rid of proselytizers. Here's my method.

HippieChick58 comments on Mar 2, 2024:

The last proselytizers showed up a few months ago when I was WFH. I just happened to be available to answer my door, and I saw the buybulls in their hands, I didn't even let them say anything, I said "get the fu$k off my porch and never come back. And put me on your list of houses to avoid." Then I shut the door and went back to my computer. I have not been bothered since then, but then again I'm working in an office again so I'm not home most of the day.
