My mother had me watch The Exorcist as a child... it remains one of a few films that doesn't give me nightmares because it reminds me of real life experiences I've had with such spirits.
So .. same age. I want to climb a tree but the only one we have is a huge oak with the branches lke 10 feet off the ground. So my little brain decides that if I can get to a branch the rest would be easy. I thought I will get a ladder from the garage and that will achieve my goal. Nope. Ladder is to heavy and awkward to carry at my height and weight. So need a new plan. Then inspiration hits like a brick to the forehead. The swing set is almost high enough. If I stood on the very top and jumped to the branch I could then pull myself up into the tree. So I climb the swing set and stand up on the cross bar. Then to the very tipy top. I fought to balance on such a skinny pipe but I got steady enough to be able to launch myself towards the branch. I made it ..... to the leaves of the branch which I was still holding when I hit the ground flat on my chest. As I lay there gasping for breath, my brother, who saw the entire extravaganza imediatly ran to the house and to my my and exclaimed.."Dain is dead"!!!! Mo came running out to find me, leaves still in hand, attempting to stand. She pulled me up straight and smacked me in my bottom and sent me to the house. No cookies and milk that day.
The more of these things I get, the more robust my reaction is. I got most all the side effects last night.
My man had Covid pretty early on and I managed to get him to have two vaccines on top of that before he told me that he'd had enough. I accept and respect his decision... he's had Covid, so he knows how bad it gets for him.
I just wonder how many more of these I'm going to get before I, too, say "I'm vaccinated enough"??? I've had three doses so far and, each time, the side effects are increasing.
This is the first time that they bruised me like that - and my vaccine was delivered by no less than a doctor.
After I got home, I found out that I should have had the (suspended) supervised 15 minute wait because of what they've seen in me after I was vaccinated on previous occasions.
At the same time, I'm scared to stop getting vaccinated just in case they do bring the vaccine pass more wide spread and try to stop me from carrying out my role as a carer... but... do I let them kill me with it???
There is a rumor going around that there are only a few real people on this site in the rest are clever algorithms. I suspect someone on this thread is one said such algorithm.
Whatever games you pick, make sure to get a clear understanding about copyright laws. One channel I follow played through GTA 5 in 10 videos and 9 of those were demonetized because of songs that played in other people's cars. If your channel isn't as successful as his, the copyright owner probably won't be satisfied with taking the profit and have the video taken down instead. And even if music isn't an issue, the games are copyrighted as well.
I had heard stories about it before... particularly relating to the stolen coin. I guess I'm more alert for that sort of thing since my own collection was stolen.
I hadn't seen the buildings concerned prior to the video, though.
I know that it's not uncommon for the Mint to not strike coins when they have "enough" in circulation - I have a couple of gaps in my 20p collection over recent years, where I know that no coins were minted.
The thought that struck me deepest was that I have an Australian penny from 1933... that is the oldest coin in my collection.
I’ve linked this post on my useful links post now https://similarworlds.com/groups/new-sw-members/3813508-Useful-links-for-SW-newbies-and-non-newbies to remind everyone to definitely not comment after me 😈
He was driving down the road, approaching a small industrial estate, when he says he felt a *pop*. He's guessing that he ran over something in the road way.
The only part of it that doesn't make sense to me is that he claims that he was stopped by the police after the incident had happened - and he told the officer to go and check that stretch of road before he was allowed to continue on his way.
Logic tells me that a flat tyre on a car makes it unroadworthy - and no police officer would allow you to drive for almost a mile like that... even if you don't have a locking nut removal tool.
However, I also doubt my logic there because I know that my man has also finished a journey on a similarly (though not as bad as that) shredded tyre, too. I trust and believe him more than soon to be ex. In both cases, the rims themselves weren't affected to the point where my man would have mentioned it to me. Of course, I know where my man was going that day, but not how far away from his destination he was when it happened and I know that he did a "roadside repair" to better protect his rim, too.
Something tells me that the part involving the police didn't happen, though.
The decision to facilitate it's return was in soon to be ex's hands... I only alerted him to what had happened and he took care of the rest from there.
I know that I did the right thing and I'd like to think that someone would do the same for me if the boot was on the other foot.
I'm still happy that the lady got her sign back... it sounds like it was very important to her.
Hij heeft er thuis last van gehad, nog voordat we een vaccin hadden... we hadden toen amper een test.
Ik was zo bang voor hem door het isolement en zijn terugkeer naar het werk.
Ze zeggen dat Omicron een zachtere variant zou moeten zijn dan degene die ervoor kwamen ... Hoewel ik hoop dat hij dat nooit meer hoeft mee te maken, hoop ik ook dat, als hij dat doet, het echt milder is dan wat hij de vorige keer had.
Er is niet veel erger dan te weten dat iemand van wie je houdt ziek is en er is niet veel dat je kunt doen om hen te helpen.
Hopelijk doe ik het deze keer beter nu ik hem en zijn interesses beter ken dan de eerste keer... misschien ben ik interessanter gezelschap voor hem.
Ik sleepte gewoon de hele bestelling naar binnen, doos en alles in één keer.
Binnenkort was ex ook wakker, dus ik liet hem me helpen om de melk en het brood in de koelkast te zetten.
Hij kijkt naar de doos en denkt dat deze een handvat op het deksel nodig heeft.
Ik zou graag willen dat het een beetje wordt versterkt, omdat het alleen in elkaar past en ik het omhoog voelde glijden terwijl ik het droeg.
Ik vroeg hem om het in elkaar te schroeven, maar ik vraag me af of het misschien beter is om het in plaats daarvan aan elkaar te lijmen???
De reden waarom ik je om een second opinion vraag is omdat het hout van je modellen en het hout waarvan deze doos is gemaakt erg op mij lijkt.
Binnenkort ex slaagde er ook in om wat olieachtige vingerafdrukken op de zijkanten van de doos te krijgen, dus nu moet ik uitzoeken hoe ik ze er weer af kan krijgen.
Ik wil ze eigenlijk niet hoeven afschuren omdat het ruikt alsof het hout ergens mee behandeld is, dus ik dacht dat ik misschien een gumtje zou proberen... dan wat doorzichtige vernis om het voor mij makkelijker af te vegen als het vies wordt.
Ik wil het niet bevlekken omdat het bedrijfslogo in de voorkant van de doos is gebrand, wat een aanraking is die ik leuk vond.
Remember when that tyre blew the other day??? We left it for a few days while we waited for the new locking nut to come from Amazon... well, we apparently have a scrap car that we were using as a skip (because it was full of stuff that soon to be ex was taking it to storage the day after the puncture).
Apparently, there's also a bed on the front of our property, too... it's a living room arm chair that fell apart. Oddly enough, we do have a bed that needs replacing - but the bed is with a neighbour and I'm still using the broken bed. So, whoever reported us has been listening into conversations and has reported me for something I haven't even done yet.
The laugh of it is that the tyre has now been changed and the car is empty again.
It just makes me wonder how many times she's gonna report me and the landlord is going to waste time coming out before they learn that she is just wasting time and doesn't like me. She won't even talk to me because soon to be ex was friends with a guy who told her that he didn't want to date her...
well to be fair I don't think that's strictly true, cause I remember when I had discord, I was basically on there 24/7, I felt the need to interact with everyone and reply to everything on there cause the messaging so just instantaneous. I was on like 10+ servers lol, talking to everyone and I did not want to miss anything, I deleted the account and deleted the discord app from all my electronics after 2-3 years. never looked back

The trick here is to write a bot that will flag the fuck out this post immediately after you post.
I can't take deep breaths at this stage. My whole lower ribcage hurts and I'm debating between taking my last ever nebuliser or going to hospital for two of theirs.
I don't want that because I know that they'll be keeping me again since my bp is "high" and my blood oxygen will be low because I have thicker blood than usual.
So ... same bike same age. I could ride sitting on the seat and would slap the pedals with my feet as they went by. I couldn't ride in the road so I would just circle our small yard. One day, on my journeys, I discovered a washout running down the back of the yard down the hill. It looked inviting so I road my oversized bike down the washout. I got about half way down and hit some of the unevenness of the trail and me and the bike went into a tumble. The handle bars hit me dead center in the stomach. I lay there for what seemed hours tangled up in the bike and gasping for air. My brother witnessed my bad judgment and ran to the house and screamed at my mom "Dain killed himself". Obviously didn't say Dain. So my mother runs out of the house and down the hill and snatches me up and out from the bike. She brushes a little dirt off me and asks me if I am okay. I nod because I am still out of breath. She then notifies me that the hill is off limits and heads back to the house.
Having added a few more rounds on it, it's looking quite nice... I'm sort of liking the variation between the printed colours and the spots.
I would show you both - only I can barely move right now. Even on my top up meds, my pain is right up there. I'm debating taking morphine to sleep tonight.
