I wear Focus Dailies - they are SO comfortable (sm)
and it's great to have a fresh pair every day! Plus it saves a lot of time and money to not be cleaning and enzyming, etc. (is enzyming a word?) There is usually a rebate on these, too. This is my third year with them, and I'm very happy! KM
Focus on yourself and your kids
Do things you enjoy - find hobbies, read, exercise, whatever makes YOU happy. It takes time and there are also lots of support groups you could get involved in. You could even get a lot of help online. Give yourself time, nurture and heal yourself. You have been through a lot it sounds like and probably so have your kids. Jumping into another relationship because you are needy and lonely might not be the best thing.
Sinner! :) I don't wear my seatbelt except when the kids are in the car...
and then only if they call me out on it. They buckle up out of habit and usually its my daughter who gives me a hard time. In my defense, I'm a short person and the seatbelt rubs me up hight on my neck causes a red mark! 
Okay, okay. It's a lame excuse I know.
I also bite my nails, drink too my Coke. I'm sure there's more.
I lose focus after a few hours : (

I definitely do focus on his talents and of course I don't use that word with him (sm)
But in his grade in his school, he is one of the few. He has started trying to play sports with the other kids at recess, etc and they yell things like "you s*ck" at him. I strongly focus on his talents of course...I am his mother...I am his biggest fan and supporter.
Focus on getting healthy, not on losing weight
I don't know your height, but was 5Ǝ" and 175 when I started trying to get fit. I lost inches first before losing weight. It took 4-5 months to lose 25 lbs, going from a size 16 to 12. Once I got there, I was more fit than 93% of all women my age. I was doing mountain hikes that put my teenagers to shame.
A few years later, I had some GI problems and started losing inches and a bit of weight, but not much weight. I lost the muscle as I had already burned off the fat. I dropped only 5 lbs, but went from size 12 to a size 8. I was anorectic. I'm back up again. ugh.
Just wanted you to know that if you think about getting fit, you may be more successful than if your goal is to lose weight. A lot of people give up because they don't lose the weight they expect of themselves. Your body will tell you where you should be. If you lose too much weight, you'll stay sick. If you are fit and stay fit, you'll feel it in any muscle and bone of your body. Good luck! Sounds like your off to a good start.
anyway, they saved a life; that's what we'll focus on

Does anyone else notice when you work too many days in a row you lose your focus or something. nm

he is not a Minority; you don't use that word in front of him, right? Focus on his talents; tell

What the women wear or don't wear is not the
issue here. They can wear what they want. The issue is what is actually going on in the compound and the laws that are being broken.
Cut 'em off.....!!!
We have the same situation here. My husband's stepfather totally cut us off after his biological mother passed away! I still get blamed, of course the wife!!! I was left out of the obituary on purpose! It stinks, and I've gotten past it now, but the stepsister calls with "oh we miss you". This is a bunch of crap! After 3 years, I bet all she misses is the gossip and causing trouble! Cut 'em off! Cut 'em off! Let your children know that sometimes their Daddy is yelling because he feels hurt, and that is his way of "dealing". Sounds like you have a grip anyway on dealing with both your husband and children and that you have a wonderful family right in your own home! The only other option is to "hash it out", but leave the children out of it! Hope this helps.... I don't know if it will or not, but your situation really brought out some "hurt feelings" for me personally... Take care and God Bless. Hope it all works out...
Yes! Geaux get 'em!
Water 'em! (sm)
Hose them down outside, put them in the shower, or leave them out in the rain.
Only other option get rid of 'em. Which would cat

Tell 'em siser...
So when they get tired of being fluffy, they come here, rouse things up, and then go back and report that this board is childish, but of course that's the pot calling the kettle black now isn't?????? 
I actually would rather be here as there are a lot of different topics and you don't get bashed by the moderator because you feel a certain way! Go moderators!! Keep up the good work here on Stars... Sometimes ya' just want to vent and not have SS up your tailend with e-mails that make absolutely no sense!!!!
The funny part is instead of them calling themselves miserable, they come over, copy paste and then make a thread out of a borrowed post from here... 
Well, I enjoyed 'em
Doubt I'd have the guts to buy most of them, even if I could afford it. They are fun and certainly a conversation piece - if I had a business with a lobby, I'd go for at least one just to be memorable.
maybe husband just likes 'em
however, not my cuppa tea....
Nah. Just let 'em prop on my belly. LOL
Nah...I just tuck 'em into my socks...
Where? I wanna go pick 'em myself.
Ponchatoula?
Give 'em a shower! sm
I spray mine with 409, let it sit for about 10 minutes and then shower it off. Or, I stick them out in a down pour and they get nice and clean.
We hate 'em all. - LOL - Luv Phyllis

Tell 'em you're going to SELL them to the
niece and restaurant -- are those right? can't get 'em
just hate that. i've added those to my Expander so they correct themselves... i know there's more ...
Stores are trying to make 'em get their
If you can't control 'em at home, no way will it be
Most of us would like to see a movie or go out to dinner in peace, without having other people's little indiscretions trying to eat off of our plates. Keep 'em off airplanes, too, for that matter.
Gotta give 'em credit though, ya' know...
Not many people would take that plunge!
HEY, Y'ALL VOTED FOR 'EM. don't whine now! nm

It doesn't stop 'em from coming around, but
kill 'em and clean 'em at the same time -- using a spray bottle with a good spray and some type of cleaner (even watered down) in it, stun them with the spray first, then totally blast them with the spray . . . wipe with paper towel.
Now they unfortunately call 'em designer dogs...
but they're really just muts. They are all lhasa-poo's. It all began when we lived in a townhouse in the city of Lowell, MA. I really wanted a dog but they (the condo association) had a weight restriction of 40 pounds. So, we were out for a Sunday drive one day and happened upon this lady walking the cutest little dog. She told us where she got it and we drove right to the kennel that day. They had one puppy left (our Winston) and we snatched him up right on the spot.
He's getting mighty old and to help the hurt of his eventual passing not be as bad, I had the bright idea to get his replacement another lhasa-poo( a couple of years ago (Patton). Well, the young whipper snapper was constantly pestering poor old Winston, so I said, "Hey, we need to get him a playmate." Enter the third little guy, "Sherman." Also a lhasa-poo. So there ya have it.
The oldster is still with us...blind, toothless, and kinda stinky, but it's one big happy family of little portable dogs and I don't think I'll ever get a big dog just because I like the little lap dogs. They are totally gay though---little puffs of yappiness.
Gave 'em a shower - look brand new - thanks!! (nm)

That's why Hayseed's neighbor shoots 'em
He probably had his house skunked, and never wants to go through it again.
There are sprays that you can use, bit I just swish 'em in soapy water
s
my Home Depot has 'em. no message inside.
.
They may still bloom in the sun, but the most intense color will come in the shade. Love 'em! nm

C'mon ladies-God wouldn't have given you maracas if he didn't want you to shake 'em! sm
The blonde dance instructor in Dirty Dancing.
I love it.
Give 'em a swish in the sink. If concerned about color running, try with 1 stem or leaf first. Or

It didn't work out due to combining of kids and step kids. nm

Cook 'em however you both will like but cook n serve kraut separately. Great with cooked

Whatever you want to wear - sm
You are going to love the Lion King! When I went a couple years ago there were people in dresses and suits, but a lot of other people, including myself, in just a nicer outfit - slacks and a sweater. Some people were even in jeans.
I got some to wear in the car when
we went on vacation last summer. They were great. I could actually work and not hear anything else going on in the car. However, I never use them at home because they are SOO big. I have my favorite pair that I wear, but when they wear out, I guess I will be wearing my expensive BIG ones! They do work, though
what to wear?
Need a bit of help. I am a full-figured woman (26) and have been invited to a fancy, fancy wedding. What am I going to wear? I do not wear skirts or dresses. I have looked online for plus size fancy occasion pant sets but cannot find anything that looks good. They all look real cheap. For this affair the cost of an outfit will be no problem. I just need advise/help on finding something. Probably need size 26/28 as I would rather get bigger than smaller and then have it tailored.
There is no way I would wear the one ...sm
with the jewelry hanging from it. That irks me. I just want to grab the thing and jerk it off. LOL. The one with the crystals in the contact lense without the thing hanging I think is cool.
yes some did wear them
My mom used to tell me about it. I was not born then either. She actually had one. The underskirt is something like the slip they wear under a square dance dress, they are made of very stiff tulle/mesh.
Mom said they get that stiff because they would spray them with spray starch/sugar water and hang them to dry.
The most of the poodle skirts you will see now are made of felt. You can get a pattern for it in the Halloween catalog for the major pattern companies. Look on line for McCall or Simplicity.
You should wear them...
I'm sure she'd be glad you liked keeping her close at heart and also you probably look very beautiful in them and she would be glad you are enjoying these earthly things that she took the time to purchase. Just remember, life is too short, and the jokes about "giving me that jacket" were showing how much you loved her taste in apparel, so why not wear them and know that your sister would have thought you look great in them! JMO.
I would wear them - sm
When my mom died I took about 80% of her clothes. Right now I cannot fit into them but we were the same height, though she weighed about 10 pounds less. But I can easily wear all her shirts and dresses...once I lose some weight, put on 35 pounds after she died. It makes me feel good to have her stuff and some of the smaller tops I have given to my daughters who are thrilled to have a little bit of grandma with them.
That's why I don't wear them
Too expensive and too restrictive, but I'm small enough to get away with it.
Probably not Pentecostal either. We wear
pants lots of times (even to church). We don't have home church meetings either. We have church in the sanctuary like most other denominations. 
I normally wear two rings;
my wedding ring on my left hand and an opal on my right hand. For some reason, I always have to take my wedding ring off because it slows me down if I'm wearing it yet I keep my opal on because I feel it slows me down if it's off. ???? Strange I know.
I also wear Ace bands on my wrists. Have done this for a few years now because I don't want the big CT and it slows me down now if I don't have those on.
I don't wear mine either.
We've been married since 1998 and I wear my rings maybe once a week for only an hour or so at a time...I am so hard on jewelry I'm afraid I would either destroy them or lose them. Some of the things I do around here could get them crushed on my finger as well, so I even consider them a safety hazard! I only wear them when we go out. My husband never wears his either except when we go out. All of them are kept in my little jewelry box so we know where they are. It's never been an issue, but we're not that mainstream of a couple either!
None, never wear a bra, hate it. nm
