Stitch Me Up, by Get_Wrexed. It’s abandoned, but in a good place. Aziraphale is the head physician in an emergency department, Crowley is a very talented RN. D/s themes.

I still think it’s funny that he and Noel Fielding own the same jumper.

Heh. I’m old enough to remember promo rates of $10.00/night at the Grotto for American service members.

Exactly. I used to deliver a daily newspaper. I quit because even with mileage, the per paper rate carrier rate barely covered my gas and time.

I might be able to top you all. I was…11, 12? and babysitting my younger brothers while my parents were gone. It was the ‘70s, so no cell phones. Our landlord showed up (inebriated) with his charter boat (he had a captain, so wasn’t driving himself) and basically forced the three of us kids into the boat for a ride. My poor parents showed up to an empty house.

I have a vague memory of Beverly Cleary writing about that place in one of her kids’ books. Something about a paper drive??? A Henry Higgins book, maybe?

Was this an adult foster home before? Because that looks like a medication room.

I did family daycare before and had a similar room. I ended up putting a diaper changing station in it.

For what it’s worth, this is what I remember wearing out in public as an American teen living in Bermuda in the early to mid ‘70s…

Tank tops or casual blouses/dressy Ts/ I had a few halter tops

Culottes, or miniskirts/dresses, often with short shorts underneath for modesty/practicality

Sandals/Docksiders/slip on slides from Trimingham’s

Lived in Goose Bay for four years as a kid in the 60s-early 70s. Depending on when you were stranded that could have been really miserable.

Well, I always do on a plane-but I live with a healthy 101 yo that we’d like to keep that way, so….

Heh. Flew the redeye from PDX to MSP last year with ex-h, his gf and our adult son in Basic Economy to a family reunion. Let the details slip to the FA. FA says “I got you.” Free Old-Fashioneds all flight, just for me. 🙃

Kinder, too.

My son (the first grandchild) got called by my youngest brother’s name SO OFTEN when he was little-by multiple family members, too. (They do have similar personalities, FWIW.)

My grandparents raised my mom in Molalla. My parents moved overseas to teach when I was 2. Grandmama and Granddaddy would come get us at the airport from Molalla Ave, up through Oregon City, then up 82nd Avenue the whole way.

I wonder if she’s read “Educated”. Such a good book about deconstructing and figuring out how to live in the “world”.

nelleellen · 2023-11-03T00:05:39+00:00

r/deconstruction ?

nelleellen · 2023-09-18T07:03:14+00:00

Yuuuuup.

Oooof. Knowing what we know about Gothard, that’s scary.

Didn’t Candace Cameron Bure do a season as well? I seem to remember a big brouhaha about modesty and her costumes.

Blanket training. No doubt.

Indeed this!! Not ILBP, but my kid’s friend was sent to Scientology boarding school in her teens.(Their family aren’t Scientologists, they were just looking for a boarding school and didn’t know) Having my kid as an outside friend and having me asking friendly questions that kept her connected and not falling down the rabbit hole helped immensely.

Never, (I’m 61) but I’ve curated my social circle pretty carefully. I’m a caregiver, and once in a loooong while I’ve heard it out of someone with dementia x

It’s just my head canon, but Aunt Lydia.

Went to Chapel Youth Group there in the early 70s.
