Off-Topic / Re: I think my boss is bipolar.

Bipolarity (just made this word up...I don't know if it actually exists?) is nasty. I lived with a bipolar guy. Whooooooo, never knew what to expect on any given day. From the sweetest man to the most disgusting werewolf in a matter of minutes! Thank goodness he is history now. Good luck to you dealing with this boss of yours!!

Off-Topic / Re: what would you do in this situation

Yes I would help that person in reporting it. Abuse of any kind is extremely harmful and rape is horrendous! These actions leave a permanent invisible scar (sometimes visible too) on the victims and change the course of their lives forever. Abusers (and rapists) should be cattle-branded on their faces so that everybody can see what they are!

Well done! From 2 packs a day to only 3 cigarettes!!!! I'm also on the electronic cigs and it's okay, but I don't really like the taste. It did make me cut back, so I suppose it is worth it. I used to smoke about 15 cigs a day and am now down to 5.

Alas, my mom has passed long ago as has my mother-in-law. My daughter wanted to send me something from another country, but it would cost the price of a small house - so now I'll Skype with my children. YAY! To all mother here on FC - HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!

Off-Topic / Re: making decisions

I don't know if there's a right time to make decisions??? I like to ponder all the pros and cons before I make up my mind (and this could take forever, as I'm usually an undecided Libran), but if a decision has to be made on the spot, I choose the least complicated way and hope that it was the right decision.  :sad1:

I think it's awesome that these three women have been freed....I pray that they get support to help them integrate into "normal" life again. As for those men.....well, I hope they get jail time and become Big Bubba's Bitches!

I would love to buy a fixer-upper, but as things stand now, I don't think we'll ever be able to buy our own place. To rent....definitely a "ready to move in" place as one cannot really change the house anyhow.

I have not been to the beach in ages. I miss the ocean and the sound of crashing waves. We have a highway close to our home and I sometimes I pretend the noise of the cars rushing by is actually the sound of waves on the beach.
