The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

Her ancestors were actually William Wallace and Bloody Mary? My kids and I had some great lessons about them a few years back.

OK, got it all straightened out now...
I was confusing William Wallace and Robert I (aka Robert the Bruce). Wallace is not a blood relative, but, he did occupy the castle (Stirling Castle) for a while after they were victorious at the Battle of Stirling Bridge. The English again took back the castle the following summer, and Robert I came along not long after that to take it back again. Robert I is a blood relative.
The castle changed hands several times over a 60 yr. period after Edward I of England invaded Scotland in 1296.

Jump to Mary, Queen of Scots. She was not "Bloody Mary"...that was Mary I of England, also known as Mary Tudor. Two different people, although they reigned at almost the same time. And, as far as I know, "Bloody Mary" is not a blood relative.
But, Mary, Queen of Scots is the mother of King James VI, who later became King James I when he also became king of Ireland and England as well, and is responsible for The King James Bible.
And, they are both blood relatives.

And, so far, that's pretty much all I know about that...!!!

It's snowing. It is sticking to everything but the road so far. We had nothing at 1:30 when the piano teacher came. When she left at 2:30 our sidewalk and front steps were covered. It should be stopping soon though, so I don't think we will get more than an inch.

To make matters worse, my day was awful as usual! My life is crashing down on top of me, and I deserve it , I’ve deserved everything that’s happened to me, I don’t deserve a girlfriend, I don’t deserve friends, I must be an awful person if people feel like they can be this mean

I just saw the complete schedule for Garden Rocks. Another reason to move to Florida aside from weather, is the ability to see some of my favorite bands over a 3 month period without needing to book a trip.
Me: "Hey dh, Glass Tiger is playing this weekend. "
Dh says, "Cool, lets plan on going after lunch and seeing the first show."

How are people being mean to you? What are they doing/saying?

 

[MySmallWorldof4]

I just looked at the Garden Rocks list again. Aside from a few bands, they are all ones that I would love to see.

That’s why we go during F&G. We can see lots of really good bands.

No, people can be jerks and not every day can be a great day. It’s easier said than done, but you can’t let them get to you. Things will eventually get better. You just have to hang in there and believe in yourself....

Gawd I never dated in school. Heck, I didn't date until my 20s.

Too much drama for me and school was too darn important in my eyes.

 

[THE Monorail Lime]
