Guinness
NY attorney but I quit that sleazy scene to raise my only daughter, who is now 6. I have a twin brother who is an officer in the Marine Corp. plus three other brothers, all great successful men. One sister, my best friend! I, Guinness, collect vintage books [and yes I read them] as well as mid-twentieth century American art glass and French Quimper pottery. I speak French and understand Italian and Portuguese. And yes, that's me in the pic. No, I don't have a big A**. but I probably will someday since I do love to cook and even more, love to eat.
Has anyone tried "slim shots" and if so, what's your opinion, do they work at all?
My sister wants to try them and I'm telling her it's all hype, that nothing like that really works.
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness1 decade agoWhat are you left thinking when your brother gives $ gifts to all the kids in the family except your child?
I am very hurt by this. He has plenty of money, is in his early 40's, lives alone in his own condo, no kids, no pets, great paying job. He told me he would send it; he never did. We had an argument a few months back, but I thought we'd gotten past it. If he takes that out on her, I will never forgive him. He has 5 nephews and 2 nieces, my daughter being the youngest of the lot at age 7. She could really use the money, I could take her to a movie, he knows we are strapped for cash.
