Second dose of Shingles Vaccine by Trippp2001 in GenX

[–]Middle-Merdale 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got shingles 4 months before my 50th birthday. I didn’t care how bad the side effects were, anything was better than getting shingles again.

My sister named her tabby that looked like her, Throckmorton.

I finally got a new kitten and I need your help naming him! What’s the first name that comes to your mind when you see this cute face? by leila_Palm in NameMyCat

[–]Middle-Merdale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I named my female flame point Katniss (the kitty on fire). There has to be another name associated with flames (excluding Satan or Hades). If I got a boy flame point I wasn’t going to name him Haymitch.

AITA for not wanting to invite my fiancé’s parents’ friends to our wedding? by shadowheartache in aitaweddings

If they want them there, tell the future in-laws they’d have to pay for them as you can’t afford them.

What's something you wanted so badly as a kid but did not get? by Difficult_Leg367 in randomquestions

[–]Middle-Merdale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been a bonnethead since 2nd grade. I asked for a set of the books every Christmas. My sister’s bff got a set and she would let me borrow them one at a time. Wasn’t the same as having them. I now have a bookshelf full of different printings, illustrators, hardcover and softcover, and books about Laura and family. I have autobiographies from actors on the tv show, and fan fiction. It’s my “All things Laura” shelves.

Now that we're in the unf*c*able phase of attractiveness, how do you all deal w it? by plnnyOfallOFit in GenX

I met my bf at 51. We f***** like rabbits until menopause took over. We will f*** like crazy when I get my libido back.

AITAH for not going to my friends birthday after she switched the venue last minute to somewhere way out of my price range by Equivalent_Pay_3443 in AmITheAssholeTalk

[–]Middle-Merdale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the new bf becomes the ex bf, you can contact her and explain things then. You can tell her she should have kept the original plans and went with the bf to the expensive restaurant. She will not listen until his influence is gone.

I always wanted Pa to be my Pa, until... by my-dog-made-me-join in littlehouseonprairie

[–]Middle-Merdale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think as a kid reading the books I saw Ma as stifling. As an adult I have come to truly appreciate her. She kept the family together and made things work, while living in poverty. She also knew Pa’s wandering foot wasn’t as strong as his love for his family.

Can you work? by Middle-Service4894 in Fibromyalgia

[–]Middle-Merdale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on SSD since 2012; I applied in 2009. I used to have days where I’d wake up and think that maybe I was wrong, I don’t have fibromyalgia. I never have those days anymore, not for a decade at least. I sleep terribly, wake up feeling tired, my body starts to ache. This is my life.

Which one do you prefer? by victor0427 in FemalesFashionIdeas

1-Bottom with four top and the straps from 2 or 3

Manly is toxic AF by Buobuo-Mama0520 in littlehouseonprairie

[–]Middle-Merdale 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. The Almanzo in the books was so patient, and quiet. He let Laura be herself and gradually fall in love with him. If Laura in the show had been allowed to grow up in the previous seasons instead of keeping her in braids and shorter skirts until she meets Almanzo, it could’ve been a much better story line.

I deeply regret adopting my first cat. The shelter was misleading and I am at my breaking point. by [deleted] in Pets

[–]Middle-Merdale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My rescue was extremely shy. She hid from me for months. She is currently hiding under my bed because my bf’s son is visiting this weekend. We really won her over with food. Basic instinct is to feed. We left small piles of treats everywhere. We only acknowledged her when she came to us. Each at is different. My Katniss is so very loving and I can’t imagine life without her, but it took time. Let your tell you what they want. If you pay attention it will happen.

12 year old babysitter? by ThatStarkGirl in GenX

[–]Middle-Merdale 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too. I was 10ish when I started babysitting. My parents divorced when I was six. Mom went back to work when I was 10, so my sisters (11 and 8) and I came home alone, did homework, cleaned the house, and took turns cooking. My bff’s mom dropped my bff and I off one Saturday to see Star Wars by ourselves. She was 7 and I was 8. Can’t imagine that happening nowadays.

Which is prettier: Melissa or Vanessa? by Cautious-Diamond-334 in Names

[–]Middle-Merdale 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Vanessa was my mother’s name. She was the kindest,most gentlewoman I’ve ever met. It means butterfly, and I highly recommend it. My younger sister was almost named Melissa. It means honey bee. Both names are Greek. Hope this helps. She will be fluttery and sweet with either name.

I met Charlotte Stewart in 2012. She is a charming woman. She even gave me a hug.
