MerryBelle i'm sure they know that moving houses is not as simple as buying a new dress. why can't they pick you up and bring you to their house so you can spend time with each other even just for a few hours? or why can't you meet somewhere halfway like a park, a...

Oh yikes. Am I the heir of my aunts and uncles?

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (119615) • United States 31 Mar

The family history on my mother's side is long and complicated and boring. Suffice to say that my mother, my sister, and her family/friends won't speak to my mother's 2 sisters, brother, and her brother in law. My mother and...

I'm in big trouble

aubrey @averygirl72 (37845) • Philippines 4 Dec

Last Sunday my peace of mind is disturbed because one of my students in tutorial wants to stop just because I failed to tutor him this Sunday. The whole day Monday I don't feel well because I feel depress with that issue....

MerryBelle It's understandable to get down or distracted when we're busy or upset, so my suggestion would be to put a reminder on the door, inside and outside, so you always remember to lock your store and prevent losing any valuable.

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (119615) • United States 7 Sep 23

I was up like all night so I didn't wake up until about 1 pm. I didn't have anything in particular to do so it didn't matter. I finished sorting through pictures for my dad's visitation and then forced myself to drive over to my...

MerryBelle Your body took over because you badly needed the rest and when you woke up, all the people who you could share and understood what you're going through were available. Just curious, are your estranged aunts and uncles allowed to attend the your dad's...

In our current living situation, my husband and I will have to share a home office space. I will end up using it more, unless of course I was scheduled to travel for work on a week. During his rest days, he is more likely to use...

MerryBelle my suggestions would be 1. set up your workspace where it's quietest, while his is nearer the door. or you can also put up some sort of folding or removal dividers. 2. for the ongoing meetings and conference calls, it would help to add estimated start and...

A sad anniversary

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (119615) • United States 29 Aug 23

4 years ago today my divorce was finalized. I can't believe it has been so long. It was not my choice but the whole process went as amicably and smoothly as possible. No one screwed the other over either during our marriage or...

Debate: "Where to store the ketchup?"

Shavkat @Shavkat (139933) • Philippines 29 Aug 23

Before the end of June this year, the concern brought people into a debate about where to put the ketchup in the fridge or cupboard. That makes citizens on social media separated by their opinions. To stop the issue, Kraft Heinz...

MerryBelle In the fridge only because ketchup is better cold than room temp. Still, I don't think it would spoil if left on the table compared to other processed foods. How about you? Where do you keep your ketchup?

First Impressions

WorDazza @WorDazza (15830) • Manchester, England 28 Aug 23

Prior to starting my (not very) new job last Monday I had been freelancing for the company for over 2 years. During this time I worked totally from home, never once setting foot in the company offices which are some 120 miles from...

MerryBelle I've always been mistaken for my mother since age 13 when I answer the landline. For me, a short/average height person with a big voice is just as startling as a big/tall person with a small/high-pitched voice.

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (119615) • United States 20 Jul 23

Back in late October 2012 the Jersey Shore was destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. The staff at my school immediately created a list of students who were likely impacted by the storm based on where they lived. It was only 2 months into...

Nico is a bad kitty who killed mama's succulent!

snowy @snowy22315 (180678) • United States 14 Jul 23

So, let me preface this by saying Nico is not a big climber and rarely climbs anywhere except for the top of his perch and a bunk bed he uses a ladder frame to scale. However, one night in the kitchen I hear some noise and...

MerryBelle Maybe try chamomile tea? Next time, check the medicine before taking it. We were never paid to do housework growing up. I know you mentioned she has a heart condition. Does this mean she never, ever does any housework at all since she was young?
