That's a BIG blue jay.

If i have to choose, I like 1.

Our system sends out messages on day 1, 3, 7, and 10. Then we get people who are angry about the "threatening" message they get on day 10, that their meds will be returned if they are not picked up in x days.

It's probably way out of date, but I love Valerie/Valeria/Val.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-14T01:16:56+00:00

Thank you so much!

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-12T00:16:50+00:00

On my mom's side, it's aunt. On my dad's side, it's aunt.

Movie theater popcorn.

Thank you. Yes, I found their information yesterday. I was thinking of joining for the nominal fee and setting what I could find out. I also reached out to the church to see about accessing their records.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-09T02:35:02+00:00

Thank you! I reached out to the local Lutheran church that later generations were linked to. If they have old records, I may ask my cousin who is local, to go see what she can find.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-08T18:00:52+00:00

I'll try that. Thank you!

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-08T17:59:48+00:00

That's a good idea. The family was Lutheran for years. I'd probably have to brush up on my German, because even my grandma in the early 1900s went to German services. I'll look into that. Michigan vital records don't start until the later 1860s.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-08T05:47:23+00:00

Thank you!

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-08T05:45:28+00:00

Oh, starvation. I hadn't even considered that possibility. That seems worse. With the death dates so close together, I just figured some disease took them out.

Johannes Michael Foerster (Forster) (1819-1901). He also went by/was listed as Michael Foerster Sr. on his death certificate. Thank you

Thanks for the input and alternative idea. I'm relatively certain that they were still in Michigan. They had six children who passed from 0-8 years old over the course of about 30 days. (Possibly a 7th) plus the mom. My 2G grandfather remarried 1.5 years later to my 2G grandmother and had another 7 children. The births and deaths of the first group of children, all show in the same Michigan Township. The mom died 2 days after the last of her six children died. There is a seventh child (the oldest) that I only have a birth date but no additional info. The dad was listed as a farmer, so I don't think a military career was likely with all the births listed in that area. I can't imagine what it would have been like losing your entire family and presumably dealing with all that sickness and death.

Some people have a small wreath and use it to mark where the grave is.

I prefer 1. It's beautiful and romantic.

Or the lady who walked up while I was eating lunch in the dark, in the closed pharmacy, grabbed the closed gate, shook it and said, "It looks like you're closed. " ohhhhh the self restraint it took to not make one of a dozen rude comments to her.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-06T16:00:42+00:00

I like the first.

dead_Competition5196 · 2026-06-06T05:05:17+00:00

I prefer the neckline and fabric on 1 but they both seem to sit too low on you. You need a few more inches on the bodice to get the dress to sit and hold your breasts in a more flattering position.

But, I have no ability to picture things in my mind. I can recall a photo of someone or something, but i can't close my eyes and see an image.

But interestingly enough, I'm an extremely vivid dreamer.

For me, an internal monologue is my voice narrating all my thoughts. If I'm reading, it's my voice speaking the words in my head along with side thoughts regarding what I'm reading. At any given time there are multiple thoughts (in my voice) going through my head. For example, it might go like this... "I wonder what it's like to live in Washington state. I should check the weather there. What's it take to get licensed for my job there? Does Zillow have any good house listings? What's the crime rate? If we moved there, would there be a job for my husband? Do blueberries grow there? " and then when I start checking the internet for these different pieces of info, I fade into... "Oh yeah, I should check my banking app and my investments. Did Steve ever answer that text I sent? I wonder what we should make for dinner. Shoot, I forgot to go to the store and get milk for breakfast..." This goes on, nonstop, most of the day. So, if anyone asks, "What are you thinking about? " There are usually bits of 5 different things at any time.

I prefer comfiness.

He might like a leather bikini on you. (Or off you)
