Face it, you're getting old. Accept it and embrace it, lol.

I didn't realize it was THAT bad!

Especially the part where he was able to listen in on any of her conversations just by speakerphone! That's just crazy!

Well this video just reinforced my decision of never getting a cell phone.

Welcome to the forums.

I don't have a cell phone so no worries!

Ewwwww pickles!

I was on my way to bed, when (and I just know no one will believe me) an ice cream sandwich starting calling my name. The more it called, the more I craved it, so I just had to get me one. Now I'm happy and content. Guess I can go to bed now...well at least until it's starts calling my name again in the morning, lol.

See, I don't understand that. The school part, yes. The church? Come on. Let's have a reality check here.

I'm as normal as the next person

I don't either. My mother taught all five of us when we were young, and now my 10 year old daughter is learning to cook different things as well. Like my mother taught us, I am teaching my daughter to be self-sufficient.



Still working on the laundry thing though, lol. Hey Rome wasn't built in a day right?

Here in Virginia, you can't by liquor on Sundays or after 9pm Mon-Sat. Also, Sunday-Thurs, you can only get beer up until 12am. On Fridays and Saturdays, you can get it up until 2am. And you can't buy beer before 6am any day of the week.

No you are exactly right. I needed to be strong during that time. And I guess I was!

I could be wrong, but I'm thinking that maybe the boy represented the issue at hand, and that him fighting to keep making it up the steps, was in a way me fighting to keep trying to get the truth out, and that when it finally did, he was able to make it to the top. And that because the truth was finally out, and the situation was over, there was no need for him to be around anymore which is why I probably never had the dream again.

No, I think you are right.

I don't know. The dream went on for about 5 years, and like I said, the day the truth came out, he finally made it to the top of the stairs so I could see him. It was almost like, he was trying his best to get to the top, and each time, he'd get just a little further, but no matter how hard he tried, he never could get to the top. What's odd is when he did finally make it, I felt so relieved, like it was finally over and I could breathe again. And in my real life, I felt the same way, like a big weight had been lifted off my shoulders and I could finally breathe again.

I refuse to comment.

When I was a kid, I had gone through a very traumatic event that lasted quite awhile. But during that time, I would have this dream almost every night. We lived in a two story upstairs apartment that also had a basement. At the bottom of the staircase in the hallway, a board was missing from the platform and you could see down in the basement. In my dream, whenever I would go down the steps, there, peeking out from the hole was a little boy. I would run to the basement door to see him, and he would be at the bottom of the steps so I couldn't see him real good. But as time went on in real life, in the dream he would go up one step, but never far enough for me to make him out. It kept happening over and over again. Finally, after the truth came out about my situation, I had the same dream, but this time when I went to the basement door, there was the little boy near the top of the steps, enough that I could finally see him, and he was smiling from ear to ear and had this look on his face, like it's okay now. After that night I never had that dream ever again. Sounds weird, but it's very true and I never have figured out what that dream meant.

Welcome and good luck!

I'm still trying to figure out why you just can't let the girl live her life and let her make her mistakes. Isn't that part of growing up? And it's not like the kids aren't going to be taken care of. This situation has been going on for a while now, why can't you just let it be? So she married a loser, and has now decided that she wants to venture into being a lesbian. Is that so wrong? Are you so totally against it that you are willing to make her life miserable by interfering with her love life just so you can be happy?

Cut the apron strings and let it go. If she makes a mistake, let her deal with it. And if she comes crying back to you, then you can say "I told you so." But until then, let her find out on her own.

And if the Father is going to be in prison for 5 more years, you can pretty much bet that he doesn't have a leg to stand on as far as custody or her decision to move any where in the world if she so chooses.
