Strange Memories..
by breal inabout 6 or 7 years ago after being df'd and shunned by family and friends for so many years.. i got to thinking that perhaps if i tried to get reinstated.
not entirely sure that i really wanted to or if it was simply an idea to do this and then just did a slow fade (if that is really possible) - then i would be able to be around my family and friends like old times again.
i even attended a few meetings in the new city i had moved to.

Personality Types
by breal inrecently i have run into a few people that wanted to discuss this topic.
i believe i am a type a or driver personality although i know it goes alot deeper than this but confused as i took two tests and came out as esfj and isfj.
imho and based on human nature i have felt that people tend to romantisize there own perceived personality type.. i am interested in this from the standpoint that perhaps what we perceive as our personality type may not be how we come accross to others?!

Mulan - hee hee - I hear ya about the "j" part but after what kgfree said it actually doesn't sound so bad
Intuit - Neat - I am going to get my hubby to take the test see what he comes out.

Things my Dad taught me
by DanTheMan inthings my dad taught me.
children don't need encouragement or coaching - unspoken expectations and incredulousness and anger when they are not met are the way to go.. newspapers, national geographic magazines, and fraternal organizations are much more interesting and more worthy of a time investment than children are.. children are noisy nuisances.
keep reminding them of this by yelling whenever they make too much noise, accidentally get in your way, or otherwise annoy you or complicate your life.

Lady Lee - your poem just about made me cry! You are very talented.
My biological dad actually told me that I was not as special to him as my oldest sibling since I was not the oldest & before he walked out on us he didn't have a chance to get to know me. He related it to how any guy will always love his first car the most....He continued to introduce my siblings as his son and daughter - while I was the "other one". On summer & winter holidays he would take my sister for a visit and leave me at home with my mom. Oh I could go on... He taught me that if I ever have children I will do everything in my power to treat them equally cuz not only did his actions affect me it had unfortunate negative impacts on my relationships with siblings as well.
My step dad taught me what it means to be loved unconditionally. He taught me what it means to be a real father.
The "dad" I adopted after I moved to BC taught me I can accomplish anything I set my mind to and how to laugh at myself.

This place..
by berylblue ini read a post the other day where someone mentioned not liking those who just whined and were obviously looking for hugs and attention.. i realize i do this.
it's because there are so many wonderful people here who care and understand.
in all the time i've been here, i've only gotten two kind of nasty replies to my posts.

I've been accused of whining as well but I find that the people who post there obstacles, issues etc become an example to others because when one person is having a bad day others can be encouraging and then roles reverse. Also I find that people who vent or *whine* are really showing others how strong they can be after all since usually they get over it, carry on and are stronger for whatever they went through. Plus reading other peoples worries sometimes puts my own into perspective!

The Sweetest story that’s ever been told
Lies in a slim little circle of gold.
It joined two people as husband and wife
To share in the joys and sorrows of life,
Twenty years ago.
With faith in each other and love as your guide
As long as forever you’ll walk side by side.
The shining reminder of how much you care
Lies in the little gold band that you wear.
Of memories treasured and hopes renewed
All part of the promises made by you two,
Twenty years ago.
Author Unknown.
Have a very Happy Anniversary!!
Cheers,
BReal

Our house fire
by larc infolks, .
i do not usually post stuff about my life at home, but i am in the mood to tell you this one.
yesterday, a big truck came by our house, which created a vibration in our house, which caused a plastic spice jar to fall off of the top of the stove on to a hot burner, which caused the plastic to get set on fire, which melted and destroyed the plastic panel on the stove.

Yikes!! Scary - recently my husband & I replaced all the outlet covers in our house. Had to turn the breakers off for that. After all the rooms were done the breaker kept tripping itself... (apparantly one of the wires had been connected incorrectly on the outlet cover which we easily found and resolved) - it lead us to discovering that the main power feed into the house had a loose contact and was sparking like no tomorrow. Our electrician neighbor came & fixed it but apparantly this is a common cause of house fires. We consider ourselves lucky!
