Answer My Question With a Question - Part 4 - Page 3 - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

cinderellawkids · 08-28-2007, 01:04 PM

I was only child until I was almost 14. Then both mom and step mom had a lil girl, to suddenly I went from spoiled only child to not seen or heard. I soooo rebelled. No never picked on the babys, who both now are over 18 and still at home. I moved out the day of my 18th B day. BTW I graduated at 16 too.
Is it strange I feel like an only child and so do they or worse at 20 I was jealous of family pics without me?

cookconfay · 08-28-2007, 01:10 PM

Wow....maybe my oldest thinks that way since she has a 1/2 sister that is 19 yrs younger. I don't think it strange, just wonder do you resent them in anyway?

cinderellawkids · 08-29-2007, 01:50 PM

I only resented them because I was there as part of the family but no longer fit in, it was always mom step dad baby, me pushed aside. We had one family pic taken together so a year after I moved out they had 2 done, that bugged me. Then I really didnt belong anywhere, think thats why I started having kids. The person photographing them the second time was me, I was a professional photographer in another life.
Is all that weird? Does it really matter now that all is resolved and I am recovering?

cookconfay · 08-29-2007, 01:55 PM

How odd...I too was a professional photographer in my previous life....
Did you ever think we'd have so much in common????

GreenTea · 08-29-2007, 06:10 PM

Is there any way we can stop talking about family? (just wondering)

Isn't it amazing that a word can have different meanings?

Like a cricket can be an animal or a sport. I recently took my 4 yr old granddaughter to visit the Patton Museum at Ft. Knox, KY, told her we were going to see the big tanks. She asked "The tanks you wear with jeans or the tanks that the fish swim in?" hmm - she really had a good point.

So what other words can you think of that have multiple meanings?

Japic05 · 08-30-2007, 08:36 AM

Yes, I did know that - I am an Army Brat! My Dad's retired military.
F'd Up Beyond All Recognition is the definition we learned.
Love the Lifetime Channel's new show "Army Wives"

What new TV show do you like?

cinderellawkids · 08-30-2007, 09:35 AM

I saw army wives a few weeks ago at my moms a marathon I think it was good. Would you believe besides that and Dvds I dont watch tv?

cinderellawkids · 08-30-2007, 12:14 PM

Half the people at my office dont have cable or satelite either. Its the new trend. For a while I played withthe antenna and watched fuzzy shows but got tired of it. Do you do that?

Japic05 · 08-30-2007, 12:33 PM

Uh oh - we all are a bunch of TV people at my job - talk about the shows the next day, try to predict what's gonna happen next, Just don't like reality TV -
I'm living reality why would I want to watch it on TV? And is Survivor really reality TV? What do you think the Camera Crew, Director and other staff is doing for food, shelter and other modern conveniences?

cinderellawkids · 08-30-2007, 12:38 PM

How is it reality if theres an ambulance waiting to wisk you away?

cinderellawkids · 08-30-2007, 12:45 PM

K not so dizzy but feel terribly fatigued.
It has to be the heat, but I have so much to do this evening. This sucks. I knew I should have taken the afternoon off

***indigo*** · 08-31-2007, 03:39 AM

Do you think a kind fairy will whisk me off too?

Japic05 · 08-31-2007, 09:42 AM

Can it be a Handsome fairy?

GreenTea · 09-01-2007, 11:57 AM

Here's another military term: SNAFU (Situation Normal, All F'cked Up) -- ever heard it?

(Don't mind him -- much like the Rainman, he's just answering a question from two days ago)...

I don't know, could you? Wouldn't you get a little restless after a while?

***cmc*** · 09-01-2007, 08:59 PM

Which of the three questions should I answer with another question? (hehe GT)

justjo · 09-02-2007, 12:25 AM
