Alcoholism is a scourge we also have in the family, you’re not alone by any means.

sorry
I didn't have that problem with a parent, thank God. My oldest son was an alcoholic who refused help or to seek help.

In response to "Identity Theft Leaves You Vulnerable "

Triggered my memory of having a Bank of Montreal account, ages ago.

I use a local bank where they know my face; but, identity theft goes far beyond that. One thing about WDC I like is that much of my writings are here which gives me a fighting chance to retrieve what I've written and a chance to prove that anything I've written is mine.

As for passwords... I can't remember them all. So, yeah, some are far too simple and others are written down. I use my WDC account daily. That helps.

It's okay Ms. Lucifer Morningstar

. I actually like the song... and sometimes its good to get the blues out of you so that the sun can shine again.

Those two songs are my blues tunes.

After I listen to them it is often good to listen to something upbeat like Overcomer.

In response to "Say Something.... I Was Just Joking"

"I was just joking!" would be my pick too. I have some family members who deliver horrible insults then act like anyone who reacts without a hearty laugh has no sense of humor and / or is stupid. It's mean all around.

Big hugs on the song triggers.

Yes, number 8 is senseless. It only shows how flimsy and empty the ideas or the talk of the person who says it. Mostly, I shrug such cliches off.

The video is... triggering.

Sometimes I feel like a ghost... there but not there.

Yeah... #8 is cruel.

Boycotting Nestle Water

30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT July 18th
Have you ever boycotted a company or product? If so, tell us the story. If not, what would a company have to do for you to boycott its products?

Nestle is selling their water company out of Canada. It is being bought by a Canadian company. It was taking Aberfoyle water and bottling to sell. Not something we wanted here and it is leaving.
https://www.thestar.com/business/2020/07/02/environmentalists-cheer-as-nestle-se...

After years of criticism from environmental groups, Swiss-based consumer products giant Nestle is selling its Canadian bottled water business.

The company announced Thursday it’s selling its Nestle Pure Life business in Canada to Shelburne-based Ice River Springs. Might as well keep the money in Canada.

I find it funny that they are claiming that this decision is not based on public outcry... but I find that hard to believe.

Our household tries very hard to buy Canadian. We want to support our local foods and services.
