Too stressful for them. None of my siblings live in my town. My hubbys family lives in this town, but they´re all assholes, lol! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 0 So this will be our third annual Thanksgiving camping trip. We take a ham, the weather is always cool. It´s wonderful. We appreciate what we´re really thankful for. Wish you could come with us. that sounds so nice! I may have to do this next year. Its nice to get a break with just your family |

I plan on blogging about this over the weekend and another point of the holiday season. I will be writing a book about this and have an inspiration angle in it, too.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80062619 United States 11/25/2021 01:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well i have the virus... going on day 18. So my good friend invited me for dinner, has almost every year since he got married. I had to say no even though he didn't care. They aready had it, but her parents will be there, they're vaxxed but still no way i'd go. Rest of my family is in FL. where i could go get free monoclonal antibody treatments, which work. So i'm stuck here at home waiting for my temp to fully come down. It's up n down but barely one degree high, been like this for weeks. Very tired at times but other than scratchy throat and stuffy head not much else. Temp is just barely a degree high at times but has been up n down for weeks. Can't smell much but taste returned some. Sucks because i have sinus issues and i can't smell mildew and such, which i'm allergic too. Had a test a week so far though. Prednisone is over, haven't tried to get more, that really helped but not sure if i want to keep taking that stuff. Where i live it's hard to get real anti viral treatment unless you go to the hospital and are admitted... It's a joke the level of competence fighting this thing here, Biden's state...Anyway getting ready to take my senior pup for a ride and see if any drive thru's are open. Try and get tested again tomorrow, Got some quecitin, nac and tumeric yesterday in the mail. Taking zinc, lysine, C, D,nattokinase, and some other stuff. Sorry for the ramble, sorry to vent... I need to get over this and get back to my grind and make some money... Well to the other single folks, hope it's a good day. Hope you're well and hope you have a fur buddy to love...Find something to do, something you enjoy and do it. Helping others is a great way to spend some free time. This too shall pass, i hope...Take care OP. |

Well you are in the sense that you'll be alone, but you're not the only person who'll be alone today. I don't celebrate any of these holidays because of their origins. I could, I just choose not to. I mean, even if there was a group of Indians and pilgrims who got together and shared some maze and a turkey, the Indians were still wiped out by the pilgrims in the end. I'm not going to celebrate that. Far as Christmas goes, it's a pretty easy google search on the evils of that day. I get it though, friends and family blah, blah, blah... Whatever. It's the same thing year after year. Bunch of people getting together, pretending to be happy about it. Lol No thanks. |

This too shall pass, i hope...Take care OP. I was sick with something a couple of days ago. Cough, ear ache that wouldn't go away, and the beginnings of a fever. Took some IVM, and 25,000 IU of vitamin D3, and the fever left me within an hour or two. Don't know what I had, but it didn't want to stick around. But having whatever it was has caused me to re-think sitting indoors eating with an extended family, as for all intents and purposes none of them looked to be sick. They were all vaccinated, though. “Queen Sarah, save us from the Black Dog King!” - from the play, Dissocia [link to tasaonline.org.au (secure)] "Never be anyone's French poodle." - Mr Hamilton |
