I grew up in a protestant working class family. Married a Catholic from a better off family. Neither family was overly religious so it worked out okay. We had some lean years so the birthday and holiday checks were welcomed from his family. They welcomed me and never butted in, especially about the kids we chose not to have. There were some hurt feelings as we married in front of a Justice of the Peace with no big ceremony.

My family cared more about harmony. I just recently learned about more abuse happening then I realized. No one stood up for the children. This is why I made sure I could put at least one man in prison for what he did.

It was so difficult for me to find tall sizes that I learned to sew. I got quite good at it. My want is a mannequin.

Thank you for this. It helped me understand better.

Yes, I understand even with the ****. Everyone knows anyway, and I'm pretty sure kids know more swear words than I do. I have to use a site to look up new ones. Do not look if you are easily offended.

I'm using a spoiler as this may be triggering.

My family is there, when you need it. They can be nosy and too much there at times. Through good and bad, they are there for you. Just sometimes they need to back away a bit.

It's unfortunately too common. It is never funny. I've had cameras pointed at me and wonder how many likes it will get on tiktok.

Me out dancing:

I'm third generation, with strong family ties. It is not easy to break, and if you do, everyone knows about it because of gossip. With my mom, the negative always traveled faster.

I'm trying with the boundaries. I set them down hard after a bit too much interference. It seems to be working for now. I think it is temporary.

Many of us commented on that episode.

I've read that it's because they are being made in China, and people there are smaller. Or it saves a few cents during manufacturing.

They really do need to adjust the algorithm for Maine c****. There are several perfectly okay words that get the **** treatment.

Has anyone noticed that their feet seem to continue growing? I used to be a 9, but I just ordered a 10.5. I do a lot of walking, but I'm starting to feel like I could leave foot prints in sand and freak people out. I also bought some clothing. In size fatter than I want to be.

I got an email, "just want to know how you're doing". I've fallen for this before. No, I still need to have some time without you.

We saw at the end why Ace latched on to ghost girl even other than the loss of Nancy. Tristan's parents though, willing to sacrifice someone.

I'm dealing with this currently. "We can continue if you stop the toxic things."

I want to know too. Family can be the worst with this. You still need to keep in contact and not completely cut them off. I dropped Facebook because of this.

I say yes to needing a break. You can do it without it being permanent. "I have a lot going on, can we talk later." Politics can also be something you don't want to talk about. You can say you're not comfortable talking about it. I can tiptoe around it but it someone is confrontational, I will say back off.

I was thinking maybe a vegetable platter with some dips. Veggie straws instead of chips.

In case you weren't sure what I was talking about: You can wrap it over gauze or a non-stick pad.

My minor peeve is going to events where there is always food. I'm looked at like I'm a pariah if I don't eat or just a few nibbles, and since I'm new to the area I am asked to go first. Now, I'm trying to lose 20 pounds, and this isn't helping. Is it rude to bring healthy snacks because most seem to want the chips and cocktail wienies and cheese.
