Woman tells stepdaughter to move out, gets evicted after failing to realize she owns the house

I am certain that each and every family out there has had issues at certain point in their life. The thing is that family disputes are more common than we think and the reasons for it can be various. Sometimes, members simply don’t get along and have different points of view regarding important decisions that need to be made.

However, in order to reach peace, they sometimes need to get over things and learn how to forgive as well as never forget that communication is the key to a healthy relationship.

An internet user took to Reddit to ask complete strangers whether she was the a***ole for kicking her father and her step-mother from the house. The OP wrote, “Am I The A**hole?” and hoped to receive the support of the internet community.

Of course, without reading the entire story, one would immediately judge the OP, but wait until you learn the reasons behind her decision before you tell us what you think.

“My family lives in my grandparents’ house just outside the city on an acreage. My dad works out of town and my mom liked having the help with me and she liked helping out her folks. My mom passed away from cancer about 12 years ago […] dad still had to work so I just kept living with my grandparents. My dad always spent time with me when he was home. I wish my mom hadn’t passed but I had a pretty good life.

When he was home he would stay in their old room or we would go on vacations. My grandparents both passed away over the last couple of years from COVID and complications. My mom was an only child and so am I […] mom’s life insurance went to my dad, and he used it to help renovate the house. My grandparents never charged him rent. Sorry, I realize how confusing this is. Anyways I am the only person in my grandmother’s will. I got money and the house and my grandpa’s truck.”

As you can see, the woman posting the story lost her mother at a young age and went through heartbreak, but her parents, as well as her dad, took great care of her and she never missed anything.

“My dad started dating a couple of years after my mom passed away. He never brought anyone to the house until this last one. She is young but pretty[…] So she’s been living with me for about six months. Now she just got pregnant. My dad asked her to marry him. I’m happy for him. He is a great dad. My stepmom-to-be has started in on me about when I’m going to move out since they will need my room for the baby. My dad never told her the house is mine […] I told her it was my house and I’m not giving up my room. I also said that my dad had a fair amount of savings and could probably buy them a house.”

Sharing this, OP asked if she should feel guilty for asking her dad and her step-mom to move out of her house.

There were plenty of responses, and most of the users said that OP shouldn’t feel bad about her decision, because at the end of the day, it’s her home and she is the one to decided who to share it with.

“The house is yours. That is just a reality. You are not moving out. That is another reality. She offered you her apartment at a discount- this is funny considering she is living in your home for free,” someone wrote. Another user added, “Facts are facts. You’re not leaving them without options, and she wasn’t leaving you without one (although, it irks me a bit that she wanted you to rent her apartment). Doesn’t sound like there will be bad blood. Rest easy.” To this, OP responded with, “My dad has like 20 years of savings to pay for a house. They aren’t going to be homeless.”

Dolly Parton grew up ‘dirt poor’ and she now generously donates to charities

By

Dolly Parton is without a doubt one of the most iconic singers that have ever walked this Earth.

She isn’t just a blond bombshell whose incredible looks mesmerized millions over the years, but also a strong woman with an incredible personality with a sense of humor and a big heart who has always spoken openly about everything in her life. And that is one of the reasons why her career spans that many years.

This country music legend who is a songwriter, businesswoman, and humanitarian among the rest, has given the world of country music a lot over the years.

Born on January 19, 1946, in Locust Ridge, Tennessee, as one of 12 children, Dolly Parton‘s family struggled to make ends meet at times, but they were very close and the children grew up in a loving home where music was always present.

Her father was a share cropper and the family lived in a tiny cabin so she and her siblings spent most of their time playing outside.

“We were dirt poor but wonderfully joyful,” she once said of her family.

Dolly first saw a toilet when she was eight years old, while visiting her aunt’s place. She recalled that she was afraid to use it because she thought it would suck her down.

As we all know, she turned to be one of the most famous female musicians there are with a career spanning many decades, but Dolly never forgets where she came from and how family struggled in the early days of her life.

When speaking of her life and her music, she often brings up recollections from her childhood and says, “My love for my family will never end,” and adds that it “is always there and directs me in whatever I do.”

It is believed that she has earned over $600 million over the course of her life, a net worth that she is more than willing to share with others.

Dolly is involved in more charities that one could possibly imagine and donates money wherever and whenever there is need.

In 1988, she started the Dollywood Foundation whose goal is to grant scholarships to children. Her contribution to the community through the Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has been immense. Dolly created this initiative back in 1995 as a homage to her late father. It started in Tennessee, but spread throughout the country, delivering over 1.3 million books to over 2 million children each month. In 2018, the initiative reached a milestone when the 100 millionth book was distributed.

During the battle against the coronavirus, Dolly donated a million dollars to help create the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.

Dolly’s kindness knows no limits. When things go wrong, she’s always there to do it all in her power in order to make them right.

In 2016, she helped raise $9 million after the devastating Great Smoky Mountains wildfire through her My People Fund initiative.

When her niece battled leukemia, Dolly donated millions to the hospital where she was treated, the Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Over the years, she has made generous donations to several causes, including the American Red Cross, HIV/AIDS charities and various animal rights organizations.

The list of Dolly’s donations and kind deeds is pretty long and hard to beat.

She says she loves being there for those in need of help and adds that she’s “addicted to the sensation of giving,” and enjoys “knowing that I’m making a difference in the lives of others.”

Dolly Parton is truly one of a kind. It doesn’t come as a surprise that she is loved and adored by millions.

Sad news regarding Scott Bakula, a beloved actor

By
Monica Pop
-

After seven seasons, NCIS: New Orleans, which first premiered back in 2014, was canceled in 2021. This was a huge blow for the many fans, as well as the cast who had been working together for many years.

One of the greatest stars of the show was actor Scott Bakula, who felt nostalgic. Following the cancellation, Bakuta said, “Sad to end our love affair with this phenomenal city but so grateful for all the friends we made along the way. I will miss the music. Big thank you to CBS for seven years.”

According to Newsweek, the reasons behind the cut was low ratings.

Besides being part of this show, Bakula has also landed roles which are considered iconic, such as that of Dr. Samuel Beckett on the NBC sci-fi show Quantum Leap. The show let the character live through other people by “walking in another man or woman’s shoes,” after the scientist had an experiment in time travel go wrong and he was stuck randomly “leaping” into the bodies of strangers. The people used Beckett’s body to fix different historical wrongs.

When he was starting his career back in the day, Bakula didn’t see himself as part of Hollywood as it was theater that has always been a dream of his. When he pursued that type of career he was just 22 and just seven years later, he found himself playing the role of Joe DiMaggio in Marilyn: An American Fable. Other productions he was part of are Three Guys Naked From The Waist Down, Nightclub Confidential, Romance/Romance, and a lot more.

Yet, the role of Samuel Beckett in Quantum Leap is considered by many one of his most memorable ones.

As news of a reboot of the series spread around, many of Bakula’s fans were eager to see their favorite actor re-do the famous role, but to their devastation, Bakula said he won’t be returning to the series. He, however, gave the reboot his full blessing, saying, “I am crossing my fingers that this new cast and crew are lucky enough to tap into the magic that propelled the original Quantum Leap into the hearts and minds of generations past and present.” Bakula continued, “I wish them good luck and happy leaping!”

When it comes to his private life, he tends to keep it exactly that; private. He rarely speaks of himself and doesn’t share many things. “People Magazine wanted to interview me at my house for a hundred million years,” he said while promoting “NCIS: New Orleans” in 2016. “Where do you draw the line?”

Bakula has been married twice in his life. His first marriage, to Krista Neumann, who is best known for her role in the 1982 film Silver Spoons, seemed picture-perfect so when the two divorced in 1995, many were left surprised. The reason why was probably the fact that he spent plenty of time away from home because of work commitment.

In 2009, Bakuta married his second wife, Chelsea Field. The are still together.

Little People, Big World star Zach Roloff has undergone an emergency brain surgery as confirmed by his wife Tori.

In a post she shared on Instagram, Tori posted two photos of her husband in the hospital bed and wrote, “Not exactly how we saw our week going… Zachary had emergency shunt revision this morning.

“They say it’s routine surgery but it’s far from my routine and Zach and I are nervous,” added Tori. “It feels big to us but we trust his doctors and their ability and knowledge! Any prayers are greatly appreciated!”

Once the surgery was over, Tori posted an update. “It’s been a scary 72 hours but he is doing well and recovering!!”

Even before Tori posted about Zach’s surgery, fans knew something wasn’t right as Zach’s father, Matt, shared a photo of his 32-year-old son and asked for well-wishes and prayers.

Tori and Zach share three children together, Jackson, 5, Lilah, 3, and 9-month-old Josiah. 

The Roloff family hopes that this surgery would help put an end to Zach’s health issues.

“I’m here praying that Zach’s recovery is quick and easy and that this will be our answered prayers to relieving his migraines!” Tori wrote.

“You’re a freaking bad ass, Zach. You just had brain surgery… and handled it like a rockstar. I’m so proud of you.”

6-yr-old boy dies and leaves blue stain on carpet: years later, mom makes heartbreaking discovery

By

Mothers face great number of challenges on a daily basis. They don’t have it easy as they are constantly torn between cleaning sticky hands and faces, piles of laundry, feeding the kids and getting them ready for school, and a bunch of other duties and errands they have to run over and over again during the day.

No matter how much they try to have everything done, there is always a mess coming from around the corner such as spilled milk, scattered toys you are very much likely to step on, and stains all over the place. Having a quick shower before going to bed or taking some time for yourself is a luxury not many mothers can afford.

Flickr/Rob

A woman named Heather Duckworth who went through all these struggles and joys of being a mother, had recently shared a touching post about the things we take for granted while raising our kids. All these messes they leave behind are inseparable part of the process of growing up in front of our eyes and becoming the people we always hoped they’ll become. That is why, no matter how hard and impossible that seems, we have to strive to find the joy between the messes our little ones make, for one day they will be the greatest reminder of the childhood we as parents provided for them. Unfortunately, there are women out there who don’t get to experience the chaos and the clutter children make, or bereaved parents who lost their little trouble maker and now those masses are just a reminder of the child once made their life complete.

Heather’s post titled “The Blue Stain” that has gone viral touched the hearts of many mothers and mothers-to-be.

Facebook/Love, Faith & Chaos

As Heather was trying to scrub the grout her daughter made with the slime, her heart started bouncing as she recalled the mess she had to clean years ago.

This mother of two-year-old triplets and a four-year-old big brother would spend most of her days chasing her kids, picking toys after them, making sure no one gets hurt in the piles of laundry she couldn’t do that day because of the many other things she had to take care of, but as she says,“My hands were full, but so was my heart.”

Facebook/Love, Faith & Chaos

That evening, before going to bed, Heather and her boys were dancing to the music coming from the radio as they were putting the toys in their place. None of them could imagine that would be the last time in a while they had so much fun.

Just as she though the boys were getting to sleep and she gets some time to rest herself, she heard one of the kids say, “Uh, Oh” and that’s when she discovered the big blue stain that will remain with her forever. One of the triplets was clutching a pen that exploded in his hand and sprayed ink all over the place. The little boy resembled a smurf as his hands, face, and his pajamas were all colored in a bright blue color. Seeing this, Heather got frustrated and felt as though she failed at her mother’s role. She wasn’t mad at her son, but she blamed herself for placing the pen in the reach of the children. She let her emotions take over.

“I gasped as I saw blue splatters across the floor and a thick pool of ink sinking into our carpet – our brand new carpet. I quickly yelled for my husband, who had been doing the dishes, to come and help me. I instantly felt so upset as I grabbed my son and took him to the bathroom to clean him up and my husband started scrubbing those bright blue stains on our carpet.” 

Facebook/Love, Faith & Chaos

The stain couldn’t be cleaned from the brand new carpet, and any time Heather would notice that stain, she would feel frustration an anger all over again. Until the day the stain remained a symbol of all the beautiful moments she could spend with her boys.

Only one month after the blue stain got on their carpet, the boy who made that mess was diagnosed with cancer, and two years later he passed away, leaving the stain behind him to remind his loved ones of the time they spent together.

Facebook/Love, Faith Chaos

“It was still there . . . and now . . . it was a constant reminder of my son. It was a constant reminder of my frustration over something so trivial . . . something so unimportant in the scheme of life.
That blue stain was a constant reminder that life is messy, but that’s what makes it worth living. A constant reminder to not sweat the small stuff. A constant reminder that ‘things’ aren’t important, but people are. A constant reminder that accidents happen. A constant reminder to let go of the little things and hang on tight to what is important.”

She tried hiding that stubborn bright blue stain under the furniture but every time she would clean the place it would stare back at her, reminding her of her pain and her loss.

Heather’s story is there to teach us that we very often take things for granted and fail to enjoy the little things in life that make us who we are. She wants to tell all the mothers out there that the piles of laundry and toys are what make the house a home. Those messes are created by the most important people in our life; those messes Heather refers to as “a blessing in disguise” are what make our lives worth living because there comes a time when we dearly miss those moments. “I would have a million blue ink stains on my carpet if it meant I could have one more day with my son.”

Her message for the mothers is that they mustn’t allow to be absorbed by what is happening around them because that wouldn’t let them enjoy the time with their children. Always focus on what is important, because life is too short to spend it on rubbing stains.

Mom of black and white boys often gets asked which one of them is hers

By

Meet Daniel and David, identical, yet quite different twin brothers from Nigeria. Although they share same parents, and both have big brown eyes, these cute siblings have contrasting skin and hair color. Daniel is black, just like his mom, dad, and his older sister, while David is white and has golden-colored hair, result of albinism, a genetic condition affecting 1 in 20,000 people.

Their mother, Stacy, said that none of the scans showed David was different from his twin brother, so when the boys were delivered everyone was quite shocked. Speaking to Bored Panda, she revealed how the first thing doctors told her was “It seems you are having totally unidentical twins.”

A post shared by Daniel and David (@danielanddavid2)

People with albinism are likely to experience health issues, including ones related to their vision, but according to the proud mother, David is perfectly healthy.

She also shared how her husband reacted after seeing his boys for the first time.

“Their dad was really overwhelmed and immediately named My Twin 2 (David) ‘Golden,’ so he fondly calls him Mr. Golden. He was all overjoyed seeing his boys. He stood for more than 10 minutes staring at them and said he was just looking at God’s wonderful work and that they are his best gift ever,” she told Bored Panda.

The family receives a lot of attention but there are never any mean comments regarding David’s unique appearance.

“There’re always side talks whenever we go out, people often wanna know how and what’s happening and maybe due to their cute and adorable nature, you just wanna come close to say hello,” Stacy shared.

Wanting to allow her sons tell a story, one of understanding and appreciation, Stacy opened an Instagram account for them. There, she shares lots of beautiful photos of her little jewels. So far, they have around 26K followers from all over the world. They also get offers from a bunch of modeling agencies, mostly from the UK.

Daniel and David steal the hearts of everyone who stumbles upon their photos. We truly believe they will make successful models one day if their parents decide to accept any of the offers.

Their mom says that besides their physical appearance, her boys are opposite of one another when it comes to their characters, too. In February this year, they will turn 3!

Daniel and David are truly special and very beautiful in their own right.

Jim Carrey listed his 30-year Los Angeles sanctuary estate for whopping $28.9 million

By

His endless energy, fearless approach to comedy, and incredible ability to fully embody a character makes Jim Carrey one of the most-loved Hollywood personalities.

Carrey made his professional debut as a stand-up comedian in a Toronto club at the age of just 15 and soon after, he was able to make a living as a comedian.

Over the years, he’s played plenty of iconic roles which made him a fan-favorite.

However, his decades-long career seems to be coming to an end, because according to the actor himself, “he’s had enough.”

It was during a conversation about his latest movie, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, that the 60-year-old star revealed to Access Hollywood that he is “retiring” from acting. During this same interview, Carrey was told how icon Dolly Parton would love to see him portraying her former music partner Porter Wagoner in a Parton biopic, to what he replied that “it’s a lovely thing,” obviously caught by surprise. “But I’m retiring,” he added, to everyone’s disappointment.

Asked by host Kit Hoover whether he truly meant what he said, The Cable Guy star said: “I’m being fairly serious.” He then went on to explain it jokingly: “It depends. If the angels bring some sort of script that’s written in gold ink, that says to me that it’s going to be really important for people to see, I might continue down the road. But I’m taking a break.”

It seems that in recent years, Carrey has been more focused on his spiritual side and painting than doing movies. He truly enjoys the quieter life.

“I really like my quiet life, and I really like putting paint on canvas. And I really love my spiritual life. And I feel like, and this is something you might never hear another celebrity say as long as time exists, I have enough,” Carrey told Access Hollywood. “I’ve done enough. I am enough.”

Following his retirement plan, Carrey is going through yet another change in his life. It has been revealed recently that after 30 years, he’s selling his Los Angeles mansion which spans on 12,700 square feet and is located in the Brentwood neighborhood.

The actor bought the lavish place back in 1994 for $3.8 million, and today, almost three decades later, it’s on the market for whooping $28.9 million, as reported by The New York Times.

“For three decades it’s been a sanctuary for me but I don’t spend a lot of time there now and I want someone else to enjoy it like I have,” Carrey was reported to have said. “Every night the owls sang me lullabies and every morning I sipped my cup of joe with the hawks and hummingbirds, under a giant grandfather pine.”

Source: Twitter

The place is enormous and very well decorated. The living room, the dining room, and the family rooms have massive ceilings, skylights, fireplaces, and glass doors that lead to a courtyard patio whereas the kitchen has a breakfast room with a breathtaking view of pear trees.

The outside is as enchanting as the interior of the place. There is a bricked pathway lined with shady trees and small bushes as well as a pool with a pool house containing a bar. The oasis is also equipped with a spa area.

This legendary actor is unrecognizable from his 1970s heartthrob days

By
Monica Pop
-

Although he has been considered a bit of an oddball, actor Nick Nolte has spent his life under the spotlight.

On February 8, 2023, this extraordinary man who was once considered Hollywood’s heartthrob turned 82.

Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Nolte started his acting career on stage at the Pasadena Playhouse and in regional theatre productions. He had his breakthrough in the TV miniseries Rich Man, Poor Man (1976), in which he played the role of “Tom/Tommy Jordache.”

It wasn’t just his inner talent which helped him reach Hollywood and become part of the film industry, but his looks as well. On top of that, he possesses this inner ability to play various different characters, which makes him one of the most versatile actor we know of.

Throughout his career, Nolte has received plenty of awards, among which a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama in 1991. He was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for the film The Prince of Tides that same year.

Other roles for which he earned himself an Oscar nomination are those in Affliction and Warrior.

During the 1970s, Nolte was considered the ultimate American hero and was even named Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine.

When he got the role of Tommy Joradche, Nolte weighted around 150 pounds.

”I remember the different stages I went through for Rich Man, Poor Man. That was the biggest expanse in age. It went from 16 to 45. Physically, I thought of the weight I was as a sophomore in high school, which was 150 pounds. So I dropped down to that weight and got that boy body back. I ran around that Hollywood reservoir day and night,” he told Insider in 2022.

It was in 1992, that Nolte’s career sky-rocketed after he landed the iconic role in the groundbreaking action-comedy 48 Hrs in which he starred alongside Eddie Murphy.

“The thing about 48 Hrs. that really isn’t thought about much is that’s the first film where the black and the white criticize each other,” Nolte said in 2011.

“After Civil Rights, it was very awkward for whites and blacks. We didn’t know how to talk to each other.”

Over the course of his life, he went through three divorces and is currently married to Clytie Lane.

Nolte’s bad-boy antics sometimes overshadowed his talents, like in 2002, when his disheveled mug shot went viral. He has been involved in a number of problems and was arrested more than once.

Until 1990, he was a heavy drinker and during an occasion, when Katharine Hepburn accused him of falling down drunk in every gutter in town, Nolte replied: “I’ve got a few to go yet.”

After seeking professional help, Nolte has managed to stay sober for years.

”I was at a low point and I got slack,” Nolte has said.

“I drank in order to deal with anything I found difficult – relationships, failed projects – using alcohol even as a tonic against loneliness and the ironic kind of isolation that celebrity often brings.”

Nolte is a father of two, son Brawley Nolte and daughter Sophia Lane Nolte. Both his children have tried themselves in acting.

Sophia even starred alongside her father when she played Nolte’s granddaughter in Honey in the Head.

“She is kinda like this little grown-up. Sometimes she calls me Grandpa instead of Daddy because all of her friends’ fathers are young. I’m pushing 80. My son Brawley is in his 30s. He did some acting, but that’s not what he wanted. He’s studying to be a doctor,” Nolte told Saturday Evening Post.

Being 82, it’s obvious that his looks has changed drastically, but he’s still as charming and as gorgeous as he was in his younger days.

”As for being old, I don’t regret it at all. I’m not having much difficulty with age. I’m really kind of comfortable with it, knowing that there’s one more big adventure to do. It’s kind of spooky, but I accept it. You fight like hell right up until the last. I think you just have to keep moving and keep doing it,” he says.
