Hey how do you do that Spoiler thingy?
Immediately to the left of the camera icon at the top of the reply box is the "insert" icon. It's got a drop-down menu. Select "spoiler", give it a title if you want to, then put the text you want hidden in between the sets of brackets.
Or, you can just type SPOILER with brackets around it, then /SPOILER with brackets around it, and put the text you want hidden in between the left-facing bracket of SPOILER and the right-facing bracket of /SPOILER.

Thanks, learn something everyday. Now I need to go over the 29 secret things you can do with Chrome.

With the rain and all, I thought I'd try to fly indoors. The plan was to get it up to about 4 feet off the floor and turn it around to video my smiling and handsome countenance. Notice how I skillfully maneuver the quad just barely manage to get the quad back down as it's wandering all over the place on its own just a couple inches off the floor.

Very short flight:

So where's the smiling and handsome countenance?

You be careful with that thing indoors, y'heah? If you break it (or cut yur nose off), we won't get to see anymore vids. :D

ADD Drone. Please pick up that rubber band. I can't reach it from here. It's killing my OCD.

The only light I can see, is overcoming my own deficiencies. My mother wants me to succeed, to be strong and do well, to know that I will be strong and do well. And I am more determined now than ever, to do so.

You might surprise yourself! Just do the best you can and find happiness, that's all parents really want for their children.

I'm 27. My parents are in their 60's. I am not angry at my father for being so strong, I am in awe of it. I might feel a bit inadequate because of it. I feel like if I ever have to be that strong in my lifetime, I will not be capable of such strength.

I really don't expect my father to live much longer, if my mother does indeed pass (I've read all the statistics, I am not holding out much hope for her. I'm just doing whatever I can to make her comfortable, and happy.). I know him, I know his mentality. If he loses her, he will see himself as a burden to myself and my sister, as well as missing my mother. If he doesn't have that "broken heart syndrome", where a person undergoes heart failure from an emotional trauma, he will most likely find a way to join her in death, thinking that he will provide for us with his life insurance, and eliminate himself as a "burden" to us (as he sees it).

I don't see him as a burden though. For probably the first time in my life, I see him, truly, as a role model. Albeit, one that is impossible to live up to.

You really do need to let both your parents know about what you just wrote. Write a letter if that will help you do it. You could let them read it or you can read it to them if that feels right. You don't want to regret later that you never told them. And it just might open the door for them to tell you some things that you might never have guessed.

Thanks. Don't need any right now unless I decide to just get rid of the ones that don't fit right and start over. Usually when I go to the store for jeans I'll take 6-8 pair in to try on. Funny how the same size will fit differently.

One year our daughter gave both of us gift certificates to Nordstroms so each of us could buy a pair of "proper" jeans. OMG, I was shocked at the prices! However, I have to admit that I would have been happy with any of the jeans I took in to try on. Another shock. That's where I found the Not My Daughters Jeans that actually belt at the real waist! Loved the jeans, but not the prices. Then I found the GV at Ross for $16. When our daughter came over she said, "Nice jeans Mom!" I grinned, spun around and said, "GV, $16!". HA!!

@TrikStari
If you don't do anything else suggested here before now, PLEASE... take this advice! If you have questions or want advice on how to proceed - everyone in this thread is here to help if at all possible!... believe me, I know that from personal experience.

My Dad passed away in 1994, from colon cancer, at the ripe old age of 57 - and to this day I think of the many things unsaid. I so wish I had been able to talk to him more, to express myself about things that happened during my upbringing, for us to get to know each other better as adults - and to thank him for being there for me! He was a hard-nosed hard-driver, but I know he loved me.

I also feel like he left with some things unsaid.

Just do it... before it's too late - and that time sneaks up on ya before you know it.
