I love "The Divine Feminine".
It took me a while to respond to your post cuz I got busy with other posts and
forgot, we still have to fight over your husband! I can't afford my own.
So, did he cost a lot of money?
Husbands can be expensive.... he cost me thousands.
Before I met him, I'd dated someone else that lived in another part of the country. I thought I was going to move to his state, and we were going to live together. Well, that was the plan. When I had saved up all the money I needed to move wisely, he got cold feet and dumped me. Besides being devastated, I had what (to me) was a lot of money lying around. I didn't really care about it, though, and my standard of living wasn't high, so it just sat there collecting dust.
When we first married(I knew my husband two months when I married him), him, his brother, and my roommate drained that stack of cash in a month. It was mostly him, though, which is why I say he's expensive. He says he's paid me back by now. This is likely true. I wasn't keeping track, anyways, but I say it to be funny.
Can I call you "Snow White"?
You are one woman who lives with so many men! (Oh wait, we already have a forum member named
@Snow White )
Most of my cats are boys, too! However, my dogs are a bunch of *****es. But, I don't think
@Snow White wants me to take her name.
How many altars do you have? Can you share a picture of one of them?
I will show you my Navaratri altars as soon as I can! I just have an old flip phone, and it doesn't take pictures well. I'll get my husband or oldest son to take pictures, and find a way to get it on my computer somehow. The three altars are in the living room all year, but we tend to use them during Navaratri.
We've got a puja room, which has a wall devoted to Shiva and his family, a wall for Vishnu, and a wall for Devi. The fourth wall is a big bay window. We've got another 'temple room', but its full of stuff from the never ending home construction right now. That's where my Ares altar is. There's a few altars that aren't currently up because of the construction.
Your family and friends find you exasperating? More women like George would drive the world nuts? I would find it a breath of fresh air. You would be surprised how many women are shallow-minded?
I can be very stubborn. I do what makes sense to me, and am not really one to go along to get along. I'm also quite eccentric, and I don't really try to hide that.
The name George means "earthworker". Are you an "earthworker".?
I don't know! What's an earthworker, exactly?
Two questions
What is the messiest room you have ever seen,
That's a hard one. Maybe my ex's bedroom? I learned that the decomposition of bologna has four stages... I think that also qualified as the smelliest. I don't understand how I lived in those conditions for so long, and I'm not exactly a picky person. That place was just bad.
That room was appalling.
How about you? What's the worst you've seen?
, and what is a talent you have that has been completely useless in your life? (Wait, that was three questions).
I got good grades in school. It never got me a thing.
Probably all of my talents have been rather useless in the sense that I've been a bum all my life!
I would think being a bum would require a lot of talent! My husband was a bum when I met him. I've had lots of friends that were bums, too. It seems like a lifestyle that would require skills, even if they're different than the ones people would use in a more conventional setting.
Your avatar is interesting, because speaking of smelly places, I used the restroom of Saint Olafs today where lots of bums hang out. It was one of the worst smells ever, because it wasn't just feces, but he had moldy clothes and socks in the sink and beyond. the whole room smelled just terrible.
Take some febreeze next time! Just spray everything down...
BTW, one of your husbands sounds like he was quite worthless. Sorry. I don't know him, but the way you described him he just sounds completely laughable. We have to love and pity such people. Even if we don't like them or want anything to do with them.
I've only been married once, and that's to my current husband. My oldest son's father and I never married; he wouldn't marry me because I refused to wear a white dress or get married in a church. I think its very fortunate we never did marry.
He's actually my friend now. I don't hate him for the stuff he did to me. He was mentally ill and immature and didn't know any stinking better. In the long run, he suffered more than I.
Are you ready for Navaratri tomorrow?
