Not everyone feels this way, Anthony. I found the 50s a very cruel time where people were discriminated against if they were different than the majority. I feel no nostalgia for the 50s

Nice thread, Peter! My memories of my mother (who died 34 years ago) are not good; she was controlling and emotionally abusive. I developed very poor self esteem due to this toxic atmosphere and really struggled in my 20s, almost not making it thr...

thanks Pete. The biopsy showed "plasma cells" which I don't understand. but anyway it's very slowly getting better. it still hurts, and combined with a bad string of infusion sites, I'm having a little pity party for myself right now. Please take some pictures on Saturday, and you can put them on your page for us to see - that way you'll get some practice uploading them.

oh, I noticed below that you commented on Sohair's painting. However, you commented on your page, and you should have left the comment on her page. she probably didn't see it, unless she came back to your page for a visit. It's a very common mistake. I have been here at TuDiabetes almost two years, so I can hardly remember when I didn't know how to do all the stuff I know now. Many kind members helped me out a lot, too.

Hello Peter

Hi, Peter! Yeah, I have lots of things to do thru the day and there is never a dull moment in our house.

We have a total of 10 people living in the house. I'll be looking for a bigger house by early summer hoping to have at least $3000 in the bank for moving and down deposit on another house rental if I don't buy a house by than.

This time to have some room to put the pool table in the house and not in the carport. A double garage would be nice to use for entertainment in the family.

My husband and I are the center core of the family who has more that what the others have a stable life. Which sometimes don't know how I got involved when I like my life and my home quiet.

I'll message you, I'm working overnight so I have some quality time on my laptop tonight. LOL

your computer does not have to have a camera. You can have a friend or family member email you and add a photo as an attachment, and use that. Or you can browse the images on Google, and use a cartoon character, or another picture. I'm going to ask one of the more technical people on the team if this is an area where we can help those with "older" computers.

Ha ha not really, the weather is going to be frightful though *winks.
I shall probably have a quiet one, which is always enjoyable :)
Are you trick or treating? or going out in fancy dress?
you take care too
