My youngest so wants to go with his sister so often. She is really great about including him in so many things. He thinks it is his right to be included always and I think she needs time on her own with her friends. I am currently listening to huge tantrums because she wanted to go tobogganing with her friend. They both promised to take him tomorrow, along with several other mutual friends.
I was the oldest of 3 daughters and did include my siblings at times and excluded them others. I have no idea how they felt when I went off on my own but am finding it heatbreaking to watch my sons reaction to not being allowed to go with his sister. I have no experience to draw on to make him feel better, nothing I am trying is working.
Wondering how younger siblings coped with the disappointment of not always being included,

Winter is here. It hit the magic -10c mark and I dragged my winter coat out of storage.
Contemplating putting the summer clothes away,

I asked my neighbour if he would come over to help me assemble and install my new bbq burner. He said he would stop in on his way back from the store. My computer is in the kitchen so when I heard him at the door I closed chat trying to be somewhat discreet and then sat opposite him while he assembled the burner wearing my NN hoody. I didn't even notice till I was putting my coat on to go out with him to install it.
He didn't say anything and he doesn't have a computer however he is a total perv and would love NN.
Laughing at myself,

I just watched a 2 hour documentry about assisted suicide. I have to say I have always been on the side of choice, informed decision and then allowing the individual to do what is best for them, on all issues.
There were 2 totally different scenarios in this show. There was a terminally ill man who decided he didn't want to suffer and his wife supported his decision. The Swiss authorities allowed him his assisted suicide.
The second couple, his health was deteriorating but she was completely healthy and yet they wanted to die together after 50 years of marriage. They were turned down. The laws have changed somewhat since the show was filmed and this couple is now hopeful that their wishes to die together will be fulfilled. They had explored the idea of murder/suicide if they weren't granted their wishes.
What I found the most interesting and probably the most controversial, the man that was given the right to die, his arguement about playing god. His arguement was that anytime a doctor or nurse performed heroic measures to save someone they were playing god and he wanted to reserve the right to play god in his own death.
Without passing judgement whatsoever I do have to wonder who really has the right to tell us we must live no matter what the circumstances are untill our bodies just wont cooperate any more. Is assisted suicide really any different than a DNR? (do not recessutate)
Just mulling stuff over in my own mind and subjecting you to my thoughts,

conversation or 2 today. We all agree NN is unique. How this came to be is what I am currently pondering. I have to say the people, yeah that has been said over and over again to the point it has become cliche. I mean the PEOPLE. Yes I was here in the early days but I wasn't here in the very beginning. The true originals are the ones who set the tone for this site. They are the ones we have to thank for being true to themselves and each other allowing us to enjoy a place that is more than just a place to get cyber fucked. The originals are the ones that established friendships with each other. They are the ones that have opened their arms to accept all who came after, me included. They are the ones we need to thank because without them wanting to be seen on a lil corner of the internet we just wouldn't have the site we have today.
Opportunity knocked and a few good ppl decided to open the door to the rest of us.
Thank you for paving the way,

Thinking a lil ceasar salad on the side might really help keep the vampires away.
Gone garlic crazy,

I have over the past year asked for a few things, basics not extras and was always turned down. Today I found out if I am willing to sit in a class designed to teach life management skills I will qualify for free dental care. Ok so what the hell I will go. I also found out that because I am willing to sit thru this course that I qualify for one on one resume counselling. It boggles my mind the resources that are available, and yet one dept isn't willing to speak to the other. The service is called "Ontario works" but damn they sure know how to keep it a secret.
Wondering what else I will uncover in my quest for employment,
