How are you?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 19, 2020:

My answer is often situation specific. When asked at the doctor's office I will never answer fine. Often I will answer "here", or "well, I made it here." In Omaha the busiest street in town is Dodge, and as you get further east it gets worse (as someone who lives very much to the west.) Tomorrow I start a new job about 3/4 or of the way east and I don't like traffic anyway. If asked how I am I am likely to remark that I have once again emerged victorious over the battle of Dodge. Usually that will get the ice well broken.

Hello grouphugs 🤗 how are you all?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 19, 2020:

I have such a deep reservoir of what could be devastating things I've been told. They've all been like drips on a rock, and so many to choose from. All of them propelled me to move on or change things. One in particular determined the direction of my life. My mom died when I was 14, my dad remarried 6 months later. My stepwitch told my sisters and I that my dad promised her she would never have to do housework because he had three daughters to do it. It ended up that one of my sisters went to live with my grandparents, and one with an aunt and uncle in another state. It was just me and the stepwitch. Dad also told me he was not going to sign the paperwork so I could go to college. (This was mid 1970s, that was the way it was.) Before I graduated from HS I went to visit a Navy recruiter as two of my brothers and one uncle had been in the Navy. The Navy had no openings for women for over a year, so he escorted me to the Army recruiter's office. I took the paperwork home for Dad to sign. Dad didn't have a good out, and it caught him way off guard. But he signed and I got the hell out of his house and out of the state of Nebraska as of December 1, 1976.

Has this ever happened to you?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 18, 2020:

My former supervisor seemed to take a great deal of delight whenever she could show me when I was wrong, and she often drew out the time to teach me the right way to do it, if she even showed me the right way. More than once my error could not be replicated to show me the right way. I'm not sad not to be working there.

However, I eagerly anticipate that day because it will be so much better for all of us. If the unthinkable happens and we still have to deal with this crapola after January... I may need reinforcements as I may be going away. either jail or locked ward. But yeah, it is a good time to give some serious thought to the post Drumpfie future, or contingency plans.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 16, 2020:

Converting to the Jewish faith is tough and quite involved. Why are some Jews black? Have you read about the Diaspora? Several times in their history Jews were taken or had to leave their homelands. They ended up all over the world. There is a population in Louisiana that came over from France via Canada that apparently has Jewish blood. They have had children born with Tay Sachs disease. The theory being the some Jews settled in France during or because of a diaspora and brought along the faulty genetic materials. When they got kicked out of France and went to Canada and then Louisiana (Cajuns) they brought it along. They Jews ended up all over the world, and some didn't care to keep identifying as Jewish, so intermixed with the locals.

What color was Jesus?

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 16, 2020:

From an article years ago, Jesus would have looked like this guy, swarthy and not very tall, like the rest of the people of that area looked like based on records from the time. Given the amount of sunlight that the area gets, they would have been a darker skinned people, and due to the nutritional standards of the time they would not have been as tall as humans are today.

My kitties are very anxious if there is a door between us. Are they just snoopy or what? If I am gone when they hear the garage door open they congregate by the door to the garage. If I come in with someone they scatter to various hiding spots. If I am alone they race me up the stairs. They win. If I am in a room in my house with the door closed they are outside and generally trying to get my attention by reaching under the door. Right now they are both within 4 feet of me. They're not always my shadows, but a good part of the time I'm home they're close to me.

HippieChick58 comments on Aug 12, 2020:

I used to live in Western Washington state. That is where I truly understood what it meant to be a liberal, and that my (now ex) husband and I were not on the same page. I became an atheist after our divorce and when I really saw how the church treated mature single women. Getting away from the church let me take a step back and look at what they teach and how it is taught. They put their money on future xians, those who can't produce future xians aren't wanted. I ended up in a conservative xian bastion as a single liberal atheist. However, we do have a local AHA group, and a group dedicated to REASON. Before COVID, the community was pretty active for as small as we are. It could be worse, I guess. I could have been in one of the smaller more remote, more conservative towns. Naaahhh, Omaha is as small as I was willing to go.
