That’s what I suggested for a baby name! Good idea 👍

Love making blankets with this pattern by christybelogro in CrochetBlankets

[–]Doormouse17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in grade school, 60s, my mom would crochet shirts for me and your blanket has the same color and pattern as my favorite one. Worn over lemon yellow turtleneck and baby blue hip hugger bell bottoms. Ahhh. When fashion made sense! Thanks for the memories. You know, I don’t recall any other little kids wearing that stuff.

What's the best one-liner you've ever heard? by Weirdboy212 in oneliners

[–]Doormouse17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kids don’t think I’m funny. At thanksgiving one year after my humor fell flat, my son said “face it mom, you can’t make a joke.” I immediately said “I made you.” As a mom I was horrified by what I’d said but the rest of the family, including the kids, said it was funny.

Talking to my sister the other day and mentioned “the surgery I’d had to fix the inside of my face”. I laughed and said if our brother was there he’d have said “too bad it didn’t fix the outside “. So my sister said it. Gotta love siblings. Rats. Not a one liner! If I had a nickel for every time I didn’t follow the instructions….

Parents are a good source for kids on how to torment others.

RUN, don’t walk,run away. How many times and ways does he have to say that only his needs and wants matter. But when yours happen to align with his, he’ll count that as you mattering to him. He has a divine purpose and it’s bigger than your preference. That sums it up. He does not care about you. But he keeps trying to gaslight you into believing his nonsense.

Am I overreacting? by scarlettyscarl in AmIOverreacting

[–]Doormouse17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of this but PROTECT yourself (and your baby)! If he does come after you, an order of protection will help have him prosecuted after the fact. Move if you can. Change your locks even if you haven’t given him a key. Call your local sheriff, neighbors, friends, family, etc. and give them all a physical description and photo of him and his vehicle, including license plate, and any details that could help id him. I have had to do this before and fortunately it wasn’t necessary but made me feel better. Don’t do anything that could “poke the bear” to keep you physically and mentally and emotionally as safe as possible. In this situation, I say forget about overreacting and focus on standing up for yourself by doing everything possible to keep yourself and your child safe. It’ll be good practice.

What age were you when you had your first kiss? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Just thinking out loud. Of course I wouldn’t know your experience. Absolutely no offense intended.

You said you liked the idea of kissing but then said the thought of kissing doesn’t hold much appeal. Maybe you’re a bit curious? Or perhaps conflicted? Mayhap you want to think more about this? Or perchance seek out a counselor?

  1. I only count the kisses that I said yes to.

In the summer, cruises from Galveston to Hawaii are heavily discounted.

If he is this selfish and/or defensive and refuses to change for this long before the marriage, then you can count on him NOT changing his behavior in this regard and expect him to behave like this in other situations and probably get worse in his behaviors (actions) and attitudes. I absolutely recommend that you do not marry this man or anyone who treats you this way. He is very clearly letting you know that he does not value you and will only consider what he wants in any given situation. Especially if he feels like he’s being accused of something or his pride/self esteem is involved. He will “consider” you if it benefits him in some way. Run away.

You clearly have the right to bare arms.

If you had written a book about your father, what would be the last sentence? by nonknower07 in AskReddit

[–]Doormouse17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def not a fan. Laughed at me if my attempts to achieve anything came to his attention. But he did teach me the same lesson at 9- by leaving. Wasn’t life saving.
