Opening A Flood Gate...

twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 12 Oct 07

Have you ever suddenly remembered something from your childhood that you had absolutely no memory of? Did it bother you that it had been so well blocked in your mind? A while back, my oldest brother and I were helping my Mom...

AnnaB87 yes, this has happened to me. For me some things I had blocked out were very bad, and I have had flashbacks which were unpleasant. I have on rare occassion been able to recall things that I had forgotten that were more pleasant. I think most of the...

I went to Walmarts the other day to do shopping and by the time I left I was ready to wring someone's neck for no reason. I started shopping and every couple of items I'd get a little shock off the item. At first, it didn't...

Stop Moving The Goal Posts

Brian @wolfie34 (26771) • United Kingdom 26 Jun 07

Do you get fed up and irritable with people who keep changing the goal posts? You think you've got something arranged, then they go and change it? It's like they keep you hanging on then they drop you, or the carrot on the...

AnnaB87 I think if you know someone keeps changing the goals maybe you should just decide to not do anything with them anymore. Or maybe look to do something else???

AnnaB87 I can understand your hurt and your rage at both your mother and grandfather, but it is unproductive for you and you need to try to forgive because if you don't this will just eat at you and cause you problems later on. You can not change the past, you can...

AnnaB87 I do not believe that dating is healthy. Instead you may want to look into courtship. Which means you get to know the family at the same time as your daughter does. And your daughter is not left alone with a boy at all. Basically a boy may visit, but they...

Clothes for little girls these days leave a lot to be desired.

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 15 May 07

The clothes they have for little girls today are getting on the ridiculous side aren't they? If they aren't showing too much midriff they show too much chest. The skirts and shorts look more like "daisy dukes" and make you wonder...
