Recently, we had a teenager go missing from my direct area, a small town down the road from us. He told his mom that he was going camping, and he's been missing for a week. His mom said that when he goes camping, he is supposed to...

Sissy15 @2ndchances24 I understand that and I'm sorry that happened to you, but the issue here is that while what I am saying wasn't your personal experience or that of others, there is always a possibility it could be his that is what I'm saying. I'm not saying it...

Sissy15 @2ndchances24 based on everything the mother and other family members have said no it's not normal. If he were abused that would be something else but based off the story I have no, it's not. Most teenagers don't just randomly disappear for a week. Normal is...

Sissy15 @2ndchances24 He is 17. I don't necessarily think he has mental problems, but you have to look at all of the information. Leaving without telling anyone where you are going is not normal, especially when it's something you haven't done before. People who...

Growing up, my mom had this friend who was an odd duck, as was her family. I decided to see if I could find her son online, because I grew up with him until a certain age, and then never really saw him again. He was always a...

Sissy15 I don't really want to know so I can physically be in their lives; I wanted to know more out of curiosity. I don't see how knowing anything about them could be harmful since I have no real illusions of anything, nor do I want to reconnect. I guess sometimes...

Something I have always found interesting is the way, during WWII, countries began rationing food supplies. During the war, some countries, I'm thinking mostly about the United States and the UK in particular, but others also did...

Sissy15 My grandma was also a great cook. I remember she used to make Sunday dinners for the entire family (I'm talking my mom and all of her siblings and their children and their children's children), and we would crowd around her kitchen table. There were always...

Sissy15 @Wrexxo They do, but it's also survival of the fittest; those with the strongest will to adapt will survive, the others will not.

Sissy15 I actually knew that. People really relied on their own produce and farms during that time. They heavily relied on vegetables to make meals. Things like potatoes, turnips, and carrots were used to make things you never would have thought to use them to make.

Sissy15 I never experienced it either. I wasn't born until the late 80s, but I love learning about it. My grandmother lived through the depression and the rationing during the war. My grandma was very resourceful and didn't have much even after the war. She raised a...

Sissy15 That is definitely one of the better things about humans. I feel people were much more resourceful back in the day because they had to be. I don't know how many people would be able to survive now if something similar happened, because we have been spoiled by...

Sissy15 That makes sense. I imagine the farmers during that time in any country had it much easier than those who didn't farm. I know a lot of my family were farmers, so I imagine they weren't hurting as much as some. I am guessing those who struggled the most were...

I just realized I've been on Mylot for almost 20 years. I was practically a kid myself back then. I started writing on here before I met my husband or had my son. It's funny to think how much of my life has happened while I've...

Sissy15 I wasn't really jumping the gun; I knew I hadn't been here quite 20 years, which is why I said almost. I went by my actual name back then and used an actual picture of me. I changed it to a screen name and a random photo probably about 5 years or so ago, that...

Sissy15 I wonder how many of the old Mylotters are still on here? I always wondered what happened to a few of the originals I used to talk to.

As I sit here writing this, I have a cat lying on me, making writing difficult. Still, I love my Frankie boy. I don't love that he practically pushed Felix off of me to claim his spot, but I still adore him. Frankie is short for...

Sissy15 @JudyEv That makes sense, it's safer for cats to be indoors and they live longer that way. My cats are indoor cats. We live near a highway, and I'd be worried about them being outdoors. Cats actually don't ned a lot of space, unlike dogs. My cats have a whole...

Sissy15 @JudyEv I always like it when it works out that way. Sometimes mistakes happen, and it will even turn out better than you initially planned.

Sissy15 Thankfully, most of the hard parenting was when he was little, so now he is mostly well-behaved, and I don't have to discipline him much, which means we are able to enjoy hanging out instead of me having to always be on him about stuff. There are definitely...

Sissy15 @2ndchances24 I'm not really thinking negatively, but just thinking of all the possibilities. I really hope they find him alive and well, but with the weather we have been having, I do have to wonder where he is and how he is surviving. We have had some bad...

My family has been big on taking day trips this year. We do things that are cheap or free. Some of the best advice I can give is to take advantage of reciprocals for passes. Local science museums typically have decent reciprocal...

Sissy15 Which pass? The science pass? Or does your sister live in or travel around Ohio?
