My brain bothers me.

Goodhart says: Dec 26, 2011. 4:01 PM
PEOPLE that attempt to invalidate EVERYTHING I have experienced, and suffered over the years.

Forget about them and live life by your own standards.

I can't be totally alone though Lemonie, and me being me can isolate me from most people. So I can't forget all of them, especially those I "thought" I was getting close to as friends.

Criticism I can take, but denial of my past and present is just way too much for me.

lemonie says: Dec 27, 2011. 12:10 PM
I'm burning my past; it's going on the fire*. That's because life is about today, and friends are really no more than people that you trust.

Goodhart says: Dec 27, 2011. 3:13 PM
And when that trust is broken.....and what is is shaken up and shaken down, when you wonder if anyone will ever understand.....I turn to those who live what I do, feel what I do, have been through what I have been through. Those that deny me a opportunity to be me by trying to make me something else can take a flying leap.....but I suppose that is what you mean :-) It just isn't fun to have those you trused turn on you and tell you you are not yourself. It feels like betrayal.

lemonie says: Dec 27, 2011. 3:43 PM
Your trust was misplaced then.
No one can assert that another person is not themselves, but perhaps you tried (and failed) to be someone else?

Goodhart says: Dec 27, 2011. 6:36 PM
I have finally found the Missing link, that ties together all the weirdness of my past, and present....all the social problems, all the things that make me who I am, as I have known myself for the past 50+ years......for another person to say that I am not any of that bothers me.....but it shouldn't reallly. 
There are always going to be people that believe they see others more clearly then the other sees themselves.  It is just disturbing to me because I have never MET this person before. Just some exchanges on line. 

Still, I have to get back to remembering that I can't "bring the entire human race" up to speed (those that wish to still believe in flat earths and false moon landings, etc). In fact, I can not bring a single person into the light of enlightenment if they do not wish to understand.

Batting things around like this helps me clear my head - :-)   TY

It's kind of a mute point after the thing has bitten you though.

You know for someone with such a cheery profile picture you sure have an evil mind?

Yeah, she's already paid you for the bite (the poison injects makes it itch for so long afterwards)...

happyjo (author) says: Feb 21, 2011. 4:51 PM
Yeah, itchiness! I haven't been bit by a mosquito in who know how long!

Sounds like you need to get out more :-)

Well, living in Alaska you really don't get bit by mosquitos in the winter! ;P

Oh ok, when you said "who knows how long" I thought you meant "years" :-) Yeah, we don't get them in the winter here either.

A TV report (in Australia) about the decision by a large supermarket chain NOT to sell meat that was "with added hormones" was followed by a spokesperson saying "this decision could decimate the meat industry in Australia". This really bugged me because I for one am glad. Who wants added hormones in there meat? Not Me.

Charity shops: Over the last few years there has been a major shift in the approach to charity by organisations such as Red Cross, St. Vincents etc. The goods on sale in their charity shops were donated items (free) and were sold at a cheap price to those who couldn't affort to buy in mainstream shops. Now they have a policy of selling to anyone at the highest price they can get, this money goes into the pool of financial resources and is distributed through their other (large) projects. If you are a person in need, but outside the "charity" system you have no access to "cheap" items and clothing. The other day I was in a charity shop when a distressed person came in. She said, she only had 50cents to buy a sweater, there reply to her was that the cheapest they had was $4 and sent her away. The items are donated (second hand) and she was willing to pay what she had. I am upset by this and can't understand people who work in a charity not having any true charity.

NachoMahma says: Feb 23, 2011. 8:52 PM
. Find out when the next board meeting is and present your case. Don't expect a positive response (in my experience, these organizations aren't exactly open to outside suggestions), but it's about all you can do. When you do find a place that "acts right", support them with your time and money.

happyjo (author) says: Feb 23, 2011. 3:31 PM
This is horrid! Charity shops are for people in need! URg! This should be stopped!

Anyone care to come keep my wife company for a few days so I can finish some projects?   LOL

Nostalgic Guy says: Dec 8, 2010. 5:05 PM
Do you have an elderly relative she could visit?
My better half still goes to see her ex husbands mother a couple of times a week as the old girl really needs the help & all her family live miles away.
If I am at home I get to have the place to myself for at least two thirds of the day when she "pops round for an hour" lol
38
Goodhart says: Dec 8, 2010. 5:34 PM
She wants to be with me nearly 24/7, but since I work, she tries to make sure every spare moment is with me (unless I am in the bathroom LOL).

Its not like I want to get rid of her or anything, but I can't accomplish much if she is occupying space I need for projects or requestion I sit out and watch a chick flick with her....*sigh* 

She hates to drive, and she doesn't want to "leave me alone"  (as if I would burn the house down or something :-)

crapflinger says: Dec 22, 2010. 10:11 AM
i wonder how off base her concerns about you burning the house down are ? :P

Goodhart says: Dec 22, 2010. 3:02 PM
I haven't "lit" anything up yet >:-)
Although she has left curling irons, hair dryers, and convection ovens running unattended

ChrysN says: Dec 9, 2010. 6:29 PM
Is she interested in any of the projects you are making, maybe you two can collaborate on an instructable.
38
Goodhart says: Dec 9, 2010. 6:34 PM
She doesn't have many interests of late. I fear for her sanity (maybe it's me?). She is definately not interested in anything technical. She has done a little decopage` in the past. She collects Breyer horses (an expensive hobby at best).

Weissensteinburg says: Dec 21, 2010. 12:49 AM
She has at least one interest...you!

<3

Goodhart says: Dec 21, 2010. 2:20 PM
...or at least she has interest in my income ;-)

kelseymh says: Dec 21, 2010. 10:56 PM
The interest depends on where you have your income invested :-)
38
Goodhart says: Dec 22, 2010. 6:05 AM
She's not interested in the interest, we can't keep it "invested" long enough to see that kind of interest. Which could be interesting to others, but is of little "avail" to me as she reaps most of the "benefit".
118
ChrysN says: Dec 9, 2010. 7:15 PM
Too bad.

Oh, those horses are expensive, though they are pretty .
38
Goodhart says: Dec 9, 2010. 7:21 PM
She also has a collection of Peter Stone horses (equally if not more exspensive) and just as well done, but oh my wallet LOL

Why is there no workplace in the city where I have my dorm?

I litarly hanged my wall full of idea's for projects I want to build but I can't because I'm stuck here 5 days without any place to work and my parents expect me to be with them in the weekends...

Ugh I want a nice workshop with plenty of tools where I can work with other motivated DIY'ers...
38
Goodhart says: Dec 10, 2010. 8:02 AM
Indeed ! There are none in the city I reside in, nor in the next one over (12 miles away) nor any of the others nearby (anywhere form a 45 minute drive to a 2 hour drive).

Why are we getting mosquitoes when the outside temperature is only in the 50's (F) during the day, and down in the 30's overnight?!?
38
Goodhart says: Dec 8, 2010. 5:35 PM
I bet they don't move much "during the night" :-) But once they warm up to somewhere warmer then freezing, they can still motivate :-)
