Oh, no....no Saturday questions. I will jump in.

For those of you with siblings....did you get along as children? Do you get along now? We were very different and raised differently. We get along as adults via email.

If you are an only child.... would you like to have siblings? N/A

As a child did you sleep with a light on? Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet? I did not sleep with the light on but my sister did. My mother and my grandmother, in an example of questionable parenting/grandparenting took us to a matinee to see Psycho when it first came out. I was 9 and my sister was 5. My boogieman had blonde hair and a crewcut with black glasses and was in the basement. I described him in detail but he looked like a sketch artist drawing so I'm guessing now he was in a sketch artist drawing I saw on some TV show.

Did you go to sleepovers with friends? no

Do you remember your first adult purchase? (Mine was a vacuum) no

Do you believe aliens come to earth and abduct people? Yes, but not to abduct people. They're all on TikTok acting stupid.

Oh, no....no Saturday questions. I will jump in. - Thanks a bunch for filling in, E-Twist. Hopefully Peg just forgot and she is okay.

For those of you with siblings....did you get along as children? - Shaky. My childhood was really terrible.

Do you get along now? - Outstanding but not until fairly recently. My theory on that is he appreciated my expert advice and my compassion for what was for him a very costly divorce.

Mine was also costly but paled in comparison. SMH. This is a reason why my trust level is so low.

If you are an only child.... would you like to have siblings? - N/A

As a child did you sleep with a light on? Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet? - Nooooo.

Did you go to sleepovers with friends? - Never.

Do you remember your first adult purchase? (Mine was a vacuum) - I don't but I remember something close. When I moved out on my own my first purchase was a six pack of beer. This was back in time when 18 year olds were allowed.

Do you believe aliens come to earth and abduct people? - Nope. No evidence they exist whatsoever.

That was nice of you, E-Twist.

I had an older brother that I idolized. He and I fought sometimes the way all siblings do, but we loved each other. After our parents' divorce, he and I were latchkey kids. He told me on his deathbed that he'd always felt responsible for looking after me. He died at 45 due to alcoholism. I also have two younger stepsisters and a stepbrother who came into my life when my father remarried. We all get along pretty well.

Mr. Bay was an only child. I don't think he minded as he always had friends to play with.
As a child did you sleep with a light on? Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet?
Yes, I had a night light and I did worry about things under the bed.
Did you go to sleepovers with friends?
As a teenager I did that a few times.
Do you remember your first adult purchase? (Mine was a vacuum)
I bought a ticket for my first plane ride at 18. But I didn't really feel like an adult until I bought my first piece of furniture, a sofa.
Do you believe aliens come to earth and abduct people?
No. Considering the distance that would be involved, I don't believe that would be possible.

Thanks for filling in, E-Twist!

Only child here. (I had a brother but he died in infancy before I was born).

Not for the most part, but At times I did.
But, I came from a big Catholic family and had lots of cousins to play with.

As a child did you sleep with a light on? No. Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet? Yes, at times.

Nope. Car, I think.

Thanks for posting E-Twist.

For those of you with siblings....did you get along as children? Do you get along now?
As kids, my brother and I got along pretty well except when he hit me in the head with a hoe and set me on fire. Two separate instances lol. Both were accidents *wink wink* but yeah we did alright. We get along now but we are not close like we used to be. There is a reason, someday I hope to get it resolved. I am 16 years older than my sister so I didn't grow up with her.

If you are an only child.... would you like to have siblings?
I kind of feel like I was an only child. My brother and I were always in different states growing up, until we both moved here permanently.

As a child did you sleep with a light on? Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet?
No, I didn't. It just wasn't a thing back then, that I can remember. I did worry about things that go bang in the night like just a few minutes ago. My motion sensor went off and then I heard a thud.

It scared me as usual, so I pulled up the camera and it was a sweet kitty that had jumped up on my banister and then jumped down. She came right up to the camera. I think she's homeless but she did come to me eventually. She even came in the door and then froze when she saw my cat. It was uneventful, which gives me hope that my rotten kitty will make a new friend.


Did you go to sleepovers with friends?
Yes a few times. I didn't have many friends in either state because I went back and forth so much. My mother didn't want me going to sleepovers so I'm surprised I got to go.

Do you remember your first adult purchase? (Mine was a vacuum)
Hm, well you're an adult at 18 so I guess mine would be a used VW bug. What a piece of crap that car was. But it was cute!! I froze to death in the winter, burned up in the summer and the accelerator cable was always breaking. Fun times.

Do you believe aliens come to earth and abduct people?
No. I think they pass by earth and shake their heads.

Thanks E-Twist.

For those of you with siblings....did you get along as children? Do you get along now?

No siblings, but I probably would.

If you are an only child.... would you like to have siblings?

Not really. Being an only child I had really good life with my parents.

As a child did you sleep with a light on? Did you worry about spooky things under the bed or in the closet?

No light on, but door 2" open. No fears.

Did you go to sleepovers with friends?

It wasn't a thing where I come from


Do you remember your first adult purchase? (Mine was a vacuum)

Too many moons ago but I remember it very well - it was US Willis jeep 1947, I think.

Do you believe aliens come to earth and abduct people?

While I don't believe that we are the only intelligent life in the Universe, l don't believe in alien abduction.

Thank you, E-Twist, for saving the day!!
