RE: When you don't like a person

When I meet someone, I try to understand who they are, what they believe.

And then I watch how they act.

If their words are congruent with the way they act, then I try to get to know them better.

And finally, if I find that I have a certain rapport with the person, then I would say I like them.

Sounds complicated, but what counts is that rapport.

dunno

RE: When Death knocks at your door....

I do...grapple with the plannig and the process...

I live alone with my son.

If something happened to me suddenly, there would be no one here to help him.

And he cannot help himself.

I hope that you have people close to you, in your home or there to help you at a moments notice, 24/7.

Whether you hang on, or someday decide it's time to let go, I hope you have friends or family there to be by your side.

Alone is tough sometimes.

There...I rambled too laugh

RE: women are like angels

Say what? confused

What gentkejack said?

Or what sillyrick said, that we are supposed to teach men?

Either way, being female is only an accident of genetics.

And we are not sent to do anything.

We are human and control our own destiny. grin

RE: Economic Stimulus Checks

I went to the IRS page where you can plug in your info (social security number, your status ( married, single, etc) and your number of exemptions) and it tells you where your Economic Stimulus Check is.

So I plugged in my info and they said:

"You did not qualify for the Stimulus payment because your qualifying income was not high enough. Qualifying income includes wages and net earnings from self-employment that is includable in taxable income, Social Security benefits, certain Railroad Retirement benefits and Veterans disability compensation, disability pension, and survivors benefits received from the Department of Veterans Affairs."

I don't get in because I don't make enough money?

And my son's social security benefits didn't make our income enough so that we might get SOMETHING???

Gee, I guess these checks are for the folks that have a good income and not for those of us who work at home to just get by.

sigh

RE: When will I learn ?

The lady upstairs? Or is she downstairs in your building? laugh

Don't take it so seriously, Leo

I attract those kind of people too, because I like to be social, drink some wine and laugh.

Usually it turns out to be more drama than I want.


You're not riculous hug

RE: Would you rather

Welcome Back, Faust!! handshake

RE: Just curious......

I don't have a job other than taking care of my son.

He has been disabled since birth and receives Social Security benefits monthly.

He will never be able to have a job in his lifetime. sigh

RE: Why Do We Indulge Delusions?

But I love the idea of Santa Claus laugh

Maybe our beliefs in things magical have some comfort value and make us feel like wonderful things CAN happen even in a world where so many terrible things happen every day dunno

RE: Caregivers

Anyone who knows me on here knows I have a severely handicapped 19 year old son.

I have cared for him at home for the last 19 years.





Not all caregivers are in the "industry".

RE: Why Do We Indulge Delusions?

I don't believe in "magical thinking" or hoping that some unseen deity is going to help me.

I believe in hard work, a clear mind and a good night's sleep laugh

RE: In love online????

Are you talking about yourself?

Your profile says you are 18 and have two children.

And you are waiting for a married man who you met online to divorce his wife?

Good Luck

RE: The Price of Tomatoes

Irregardless, salmonella is something to think about, as is any bacteria that might make you or others sick.

Google salmonella and read about what it is.

Wash your veggies, wash your hands and practice good food prep and handling.



grin

RE: What does IMO In my opinion mean?

I say that when I want to stress that my opinion is no more right or wrong than the next person's opinion.

I respect the right of others to state what they think.

And I'm a lover, not a fighter laugh

RE: You're on this site because you're ......
