Good news TnT. Glad to hear it.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Thank you everyone for sharing our joy! Trish has a long way to go for recovery, but is making baby steps toward that end.

I've had some generous time off from work lately,,,, good thing too! So many projects to finish before TTITD! We are happy to be working side by side again,,,, Trish paces herself, but is MUCH improved.

Given the eplayan fondness for puns, spinoffs and sequels, why do we not have a "Time for a Hippy Thread" yet?

While I'm madly curious, I am also tickled to enjoy her post based on its current merits. :lol:

Also, I'm torn between thinking 1) "It's NEVER time for a hippy" and 2) starting a "Time for a Hippy" thread.

But I've never started a thread before, & I don't want my first to be that. :shock:

My brother is awesome...well, he can be from time to time one of the biggest jerks you will ever meet...but I love him.
He is 23, super smart, super skillful, working, living by himself, now thinking to go to college (because 4 years ago he was just stupid jerk who was too lazy to go to sign up of the classes, so they kicked him off).
Anyway, even thou he is working hard, living alone is quite expensive (I can tell), so he really has to count every penny.
My parents will probably have to leave the flat they live in for 25 years now...it is sad, like seeing your beautiful house with flowers in windows to turn into drug addicts dungeon...the good news is, they found new place they could live in - very nice, quiet, with garden and garage (5 mins from where they live now), they will have to renovate the flat, but the owner wont charge them for rent for about 5 years, so it is cool!!! Today I found out the way how they can afford the renovation - mixture of loan and savings they have. And here we go!
My mum had 2 saving accounts...she gave me one and of course I counted that she will give the other one to my brother...but now she will spend it on the renovation. It does not seem fair to me to be given money while my brother wont get anything...so I called him today, explained him my money plan for the renovation and he was very happy about that. Than I told him, that in this point of view I should give him half of the money I was given, because we are siblings so we should have the same, but I cannot give them to him right now, so if he agrees with me paying in longer time period. He asked me if I am dumb or something, that he doesnt want the money, that I wont pay him anything, because parents paid for his private school much more than I was given and they stopped giving me money for studying at university at that time as they could not afford to support us both (It is only partly right, because they supported me at my first university and the thing I decided to study more was only my decision).
He said why I even ask such things - we are family. And I said that I know how nasty it can be sometimes so I needed to have this clear :)

After that he sent me on FB chat -
HIM: You stupid bitch, so you get all the money, grandma will give you flat and you let me broke?!! You BITCH!!! (something like this you mean sister? :) )
ME: yes :)
HIM: So, from now on you will have to listen to it everytime I see you BITCH!!! ;)

How awesome is that :)
