Beautiful but boring

It is really beautiful, but after 10+ years living here raising the kids, I am beginning to crave a little craziness! Tourist season can be pretty awful, but all those tourist $$$ keep my taxes pretty low.
It is truly a land of haves and have nots. In my town, there is one house for sale for $23 million, but you can still get a real fixer-upper for under $150K. Still not cheap, but like they say, location, location, location.

A beautiful picture and a beautiful message. s/m
Here's wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! We truly do have a lot to be thankful for. 
boring job. this is such a boring job.
having trouble staying focused lately. maybe the holidays being on my mind or something. just cant stay focused...anyone have trouble with the bordom?
Yes, boring!!
Yes, fitness and health should be promoted. Why not get off our duffs and go out and be physically active ourselves? And they are way, way overpaid - it is disgusting!
Although not as boring as the

I was boring.
I studied, was very active in church youth group, was in flag corp, babysat a couple times a week, traveled to Central America during 2 summers. I was a good kid. My parents were lucky!
Boring and overpayed.

Sports are not boring.
They are meant to promote competition and fitness. I wonder though if we had a disaster that would require "fit" people to help bring others to safety, would we be able to call on the athletes? I wonder if there weren't enough soldiers or police/firemen, etc., could we count on some athletes? A lot of these organizations also help charity. I know this is kind of off the subject, but I love sports, so maybe that's why I feel the way I do. JMO. Thanks for asking. 
What a boring Monday!!! (sm)
My line count is low today even though I am working my butt off to try to bring it up. I come over here for a break and it looks like no one has posted anything new for hours. Doesn't anyone have anything exciting to say (I don't!!! was hoping you did!) LOL
predictable and boring.

We definitely need a car. Long and probably boring.
Our ྙ Buick has been very good to us, but the transmission is going. We've been adding something (don't know the name) every 6 months over the past year, but we don't think it will hold out much longer. Plus, the last ice storm really did a number on our windshield. We had a "stone crack" that was there since the day we bought the car, but the storm put a crack across the whole length of the windshield and back again. We are driving the car that way, but need a new one.
The problem is we can't afford anything over $2000 and most of the cars we have looked at are $4000 and up. Now, hubby tells me if I close out my IRA and pay for the car, he will guarantee to pay me back next year if he gets back to work. The thing I don't like is the word IF. I have been practically sole support now because he hasn't worked much this year (not his fault) and, with the fall in the stock markets, I lost mucho dollars from my IRA, as he did. He still has double what I have left, but he wants me to close out my IRA.
We need a car so he can get to work (over 50 miles one way) once he gets back to work if he decides not to retire, but I'm tired of paying all the bills plus our health insurance (which he promised to pay half and hasn't been able to do - to the tune of $4000 owed) now having to worry about getting another car. Am I wrong to feel this way? I'm starting to feel like he just doesn't want me to have any control or have any savings, that it is a threat to him if I have any money.He's my high school sweetheart from 1965, so it's not like we're yung'uns. He wasn't this way until his surgery 2 years ago. I know I'll never be able to recoup my losses from my IRA and sometimes think I should just do what he says, but I feel it's my $$ that I worked hard to get, although it will never see me through my retirement.
He just paid the IRS and state taxes before the end of the year before they tacked on any more penalties and interest, and made ME feel guilty because I didn't have enough money deducted from MY wages to cover it (we are still trying to recover from his open heart surgery). I am claiming single and really starting to hurt money-wise. It's just too much for me to handle. I'm paying all the cc's that we had to use to survive to pay medical bills and doctors after his surgery.
What would you do in this case? I use the car maybe twice a week when it's here to go for groceries if he doesn't get around to going for them. Should I take him at his word? Should I close out my IRA and get a decent car (which would probably last us the rest of our life)?
I just need another person's opinion before I make my final decision. Thanks.
I thought it was boring last night . . .
The girl with the nasty photos is "vote for the worse" this year.
Who finds sports boring?
*raising my hand*
Not boring, but professional athletes..sm
are definitely overpaid!
If this is so boring - why bother? they need posters over there can't you tell
by this thread?
I guess we are one of those boring families, too...sm
We don't fight during the holidays, but then we really don't talk much either. My mom has Alzheimer and my brother just doesn't say much. I try to carry on a conversation, but it is hard to when you are met with silence.
I find Danny boring.
Can't believe he hasn't been booted yet. I'm a hardcore Adam fan and would like to see him win, although win or lose he will be a huge star. Anyway,thank God for a world where we don't all have the same tastes. You can have your Gokey, and I'll take my Lambert, LOL!
It was kind of boring, I agree -PS (I like Phyllis)

Well, Desperate Housewives was just a boring recap
of last season, anyway. But Blazing Saddles? I guess he is not as willing to compromise? lol Men! Lord help us all! They're just simple boring creatures, ain't they?
Kitchen Nightmare is BORING. Same show and

Sounds kind of whitewashed & boring.
I don't think anyone would be interested in my boring hermit MT life.

Man, I TRIED to watch the Awards show - I really did - but it was just too slow and boring, so I gav

I really like Blake, find the girls boring this year...sm
Yes, they both can sing, what is different about that? At least Blake is different. I like his sound and how he is not just some other singer. I personally cannot wait for "So You Think You Can Dance." I really like that show much better.
Absolutely!!! Get a room already and stop boring the rest of us!

What a beautiful dog. Good luck with her. As a side note, I was very sorry to hear about your dog's passing.
He is beautiful...
there are so many, many poor ones at shelters and other places waiting for a home. some who may be put down if they do not have someone to rescue them from a sad, sad fate. have you considered one of these * outcasts * who are just waiting for some loving person to come their way...stop at their cage....and say * that's the one i want ! *
It is beautiful.......our vet sent this to us

That is beautiful...
That is a wonderful way to honor your sister. So sorry for your loss.
She is just beautiful!
Her eyes are killer...they look like amber gemstones. You can say what you want, but I'll bet my lunch SHE is the queen of the roost and you are the one at her beck and call! ;-) That's how they operate...tricky little things they are!
He is a beautiful pup.

He's beautiful!
And he'll be beautiful even with a bob tail with that long coat. My sister had a Manx with a long coat like that, born with just a bump for a tail, and she looked just like a bunny.
So this is you? You are so beautiful SM
Don't be hard on yourself. So what if you are not 20 years old? There is true beauty that comes from age. Thanks for posting - I enjoyed seeing it!
WOW... that is BEAUTIFUL!!! Did she

Beautiful dog!
Is that a huskie? Be sure and come back with more pics when you bring Bear home! Love the puppy pictures!
he is beautiful!
He must be happy to have found a home! Have fun!!
I think she is quite beautiful
but she would be even more so with some curves. I just don't get that emaciated look, it looks hard to me. I think Scarlet Johansson is quite a vision.
Very beautiful
I love their eyes.
BEAUTIFUL!

Beautiful here too, but....
I'm in Upstate NY too and I just checked the weather for next week. They're calling for possible snow on Tuesday and the temperature is dropping too, not more than 45 starting Saturday. Kids are on spring break next week and I'm off for the week too and bad weather, figures.
how beautiful!
where are you located?
Aww! She is beautiful!
