That really sucks..!!!..I can only imagine what you are going through..It seems like you never get a break..I remember the trouble you mentioned with the family a while ago..Is anyone helping you over there..??..Thinking only good thoughts for you and i do hope things will fall in place and become easier for you..

Babyangeleyes..

Think i know what you mean when you said your not feeling whole and in the wrong place..I am single myself and more now than ever i am pulling myself away from my family..Feeling alot like i dont belong at the "Get-to-Gethers..Tired of hearing the "Gay Jokes" and watching everyone laugh..No one is alowed to say mexican jokes any more because my sister-in-law's sister is dating a mexican..Let the gay jokes fly it is ok..Real tired of it..I feel out of place and want to be where i fit in the most..Already made other plans for Thanksgiving..One can only be kicked in the face so many times then they gotta quit comming around..Even if you kick a dog so many times eventually the dog stops comming around..I feel like the dog lately..

Wishing everyone a good week..

s..

Yes,"life" really sucks. It seems like I never get a break from any thing. But,maybe thats the cross I have to bear.Right now my sister and her hubbie are on this kick about don't tell don't ask. Someday they will eat ther words. I have emailed my daughter asking her to be tested and if she matches to give me one of her kidneys. I think I already know what her reply will be to me. But,Ill waite to see if I'm right. I'm trying to help my Mom out. She is making too many red blood cells and it in time turns to Lukemia. I feel so sorry for my Mom. I love her dearly. She is 85 and tends to for get things. She goes and has blood taken out,500cc. She is week after having that done.So far she gose about every 4 weeks.
I have lots of love to give but,no gal to share it with. Maybe someday I will. If any one wants to know more about me or has a intrest in me let me know.
I hope all are well with all of you people.

Babyangeleyes.. I know things are hard. I get ticked with my family. Try to remmber they don't understand. How ever what the are doing isn't right. Is your family church people? If I may ask.
Take care...

When I lived in the DC area, I never really liked winter. In SC, we don't have the winters that I'm used to. I know this sounds crazy but I miss the DC winters

cuddlyfemme · 10-05-2011, 06:01 AM

Good Morning Lofters! Have a wonderful day doing whatever you are doing

No,not really church people. I just found out my brothers son is coming up for Thanks Giving and staying here at my Moms. He is the one who wasn't going to let me see my dieing brother because,I was gay. He made a lot of trouble between the rest of the family for me. Thats when,I had my heart atack. I can't stand him. He has stold stuff from my Mother and jiped her and I out of a lot of money. Now he is trying to make trouble with one of his sons about being with a black gal. They wanted me to marry them. I was going to how ever I feel I can't now do to I don't know if I will being doing it just because,his dad dosen't like it. I can't do it with out a clean mottove. I haven't told them yet I can't marry them. I want to tell them in person. I know they need a lot of pre marrital concaling. She has always been very respectful to me. well,I hope all of you are having a good week so far.

Soft*Silver · 10-14-2011, 02:22 PM

hello folks. Its a beautiful calm damp day in NE Ohio. Sitting around in my PJs and having a slow Friday. I was wondering if anyone in our age group has some trick or treat stories to share with us? What it USE to be like, as opposed to now?

I remember my dad would take me and my brother and our friends Trick or Treating through out the neighboorhood. We'd get bummed when we knew someone was home but wouldn't answer the door. When we were done trick or treating, my brother and I would dump the candy out of our bags or plastic pumpkin and my dad would go through all the candy. After that my brother and I would look for candy that we didn't like and try to trade with the other for something we did like lol

Wryly · 10-15-2011, 04:41 PM

Softness - I remember all the walking! We lived out in the country and sometimes, when our dad took us out, he'd drive along the road and we'd have to walk up the laneway to the house. It seemed that people lived too far away from the roads!
I remember Allan's Hallowe'en candy. I hate it! I think it is a molassas salt-water taffy. It must have been very cheap because it seemed that everyone gave it out.
I remember plastic face masks and the light plastic costumes that ripped when you sat down.
I remember being so wired from all the sugar - man, I must have been bouncing off the walls! my poor mother!

Tonight I'm hanging out - not up to much - just surfing.

rustedrims · 10-15-2011, 06:05 PM

Just got home from a chili bonfire thing..A guy at work and his Dad have it every year..It is a good time..Didnt go to get drunk just to eat..Saw a few retired guys and visited with the rest..

My Halloween story..
We lived in a small town and we would start going out when it got dark..We were on the other end of town so by the time we were on the farthest end of town everyone would pretty much be out of candy..It was dark and pretty much alone walking back home..Me and my brother would say things to get my 2 sisters scared and we would all start to run..Well of course someone would fall and cry and dump their bag of candy..The rest of us didnt want to help them pick it up so there was always a few hand fulls left on the sidewalk..When we got home we all looked at each others knees to see how bad they were scraped up..As i am writing this i am laughing because to this day i can still say something to my sisters to get them to run scared and my brother would back me up..Now i have their kids to help me out to..Good times..

Soft*Silver · 10-15-2011, 09:00 PM

I remember falling too when I was out trick or treating! Those plastic face masks made it so hard to see! Make up wasnt like it is nowadays. You used your momma's make up to paint lines and smudge stuff on you!

I remember the glitter on some of my costumes. I thought that was the prettiest site! I was always the witch! LOL. Even witches had glitter, especially on their capes!

Wryly, I lived in the country too but would go "into town" where my cousins lived and ToT with them. I was told never to tell anyone I didnt live there! I felt like I would go to jail if I told!

My most vivid ToT memory isnt of mine, but comes from when I took my little 4 or 5 year old daughter ToTing. She was the good witch from Oz, and was so delicate and sweet looking! I was walking her, with my HUGE collie/St Bernard (named Sister) with me. I would stand at the top of the driveway while Liz would go to the door. I was giving her a sense of independence (who am I kidding? She was demanding it!)

we got to one house and this older guy was sitting on his porch and he was calling to her "come here little girl, come see what I have in my pockets" and jiggled them with his hands in them> I WAS PISSED! I started following her, and didnt that man get up, grab a REAL pick axe and start to chase her! She ran screaming and I ran toward him...I shoved him and the dog started barking and someone grabbed us both and I was yelling at him, then trying to grab my daughter who was scared out of her wits! I admit I wanted to kill him! She was trembling, and I scooped her up and took her hom, about a block and a half away. I called the cops and made a report. Then, wouldnt you know it, the kid looks at me after the cops leave, and asks if we can go back out...lol

kids are so resilient....

yes, we did!
