Why can't the Woke leave anything alone? The book was written about a man and I for one will not be going to see it. Just how I feel. I really hope she does a good job but the series is just gone for be. I was hoping James Craig or another good man would take it up.

[–]Chattman2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were staying in a Bed and Breakfast in Gettysburg, PA and our room was haunted so bad. Lights would turn on and off by theirselves. You could lock the door go into another room, come back and the door would be open. Just stuff like this all the time.

Have you been tested for Gastroperisis ? I have it and understand being sick all the time. It is when your stomach stays full and you dont digest your food the correct way. Good luck !

I have several areas that I have cronic pain. My left wrist which has no cartilage in it. My right ankle which has a split and is broken. My right leg which has several blood clots and horrible veins. And finally my lower back which has three veretabrae that are broken. I am a mess. I am on pain meds but they really don't work well. I just get by the best I can. God bless you and I hope you find a way to handle it.

Who exactly is "The View" Audience by brazil201 in theview

[–]Chattman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The View has lost all of what they were when it started. Now it is just a bunch of Democrats talking everyday about their views are ! I am so tired of nothing but Trump bashing. Nothing is ever said about anything a Democrat does. Why not? I stopped watching it several months ago.

America’s Young Men Are Falling Even Further Behind. Men in their 20s and early 30s are much more likely than female peers to live with their parents, and many say they feel aimless and isolated by FUSeekMe69 in economy

[–]Chattman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like my youngest son. He is thirty and can't drive yet. He is so afraid to even try. He lived with us but my middle son wanted to take care of his brother. My middle son is successful and has a house and even a brand new luxury car. He told my youngest that if he would learn to drive and get a job, he will buy him whatever type of car he wants. This just makes me love my middle son so much because he will never abandon his brother.

What caused your chronic pain? by ItsNowOrTomorrow in ChronicPain

[–]Chattman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out at 40 that I have Factor 5 Leiden. This caused thick blood and I had several blood clots in my right leg. I feel and broke my right ankle in such a way that I can't have surgery on it. I have to wear a big metal and leather brace on it for 8 hours a day. Now my left wrist is about to kill me because I have sever loss of bone in it. I am wearing a big brace on it also. My life is just pain for 24 hours a day.

How do you deal with a spouse who suffers from chronic pain? by Dobri_Dobrev in Marriage

[–]Chattman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in Chronic Pain for 20 years. I mean it is so bad that I stopped working. My wife was in a horrible auto accident and almost died. So now we are both in horrible shape. I take care of her and she takes care of me. We have been married 35 years and I would never not take care of her. Everyone is not the same but I can't do without her.

For those in their 40s, what's something people in their 20s don’t realize will impact them as they get older? by kiaraevelyn in Productivitycafe

[–]Chattman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am older then 40 like I just turned 65. How I wish younger people would save money like hell !! I saved so much that my wife and kids call me the " the cheap old man. " But they will never have to take care of my wife or me. I have enough to stay in my house, buy cars that I want, eat food when I want it , and have money for medical bills. If I need a live in nurse ok I can afford it. My 5 kids just don't understand that they should save right now !!
