sniff sniff. Has anyone here had experience with having to find a good home for your dog? sm
We have a 10 pound peekepooh who needs a good home. We've had her for 3 years now and our baby is highly allergic to her. She is an indoor dog. I've put this off for too long. I am so torn, but I know this is best.
She hates being outside. I will not take her to our pound. I've thought about pet finders, but I'm just confused. Don't want to do the local paper either.
What do any of you suggest? 
Has anyone seen The Notebook? I watched it for the first time today. sniff sniff sm
I've never cried so much during a movie. Wow. I'm speechless. Especially the end. I think it's b/c I saw myself in Allie. I had a high school sweetheart and he went into the military and we lost touch. He found me, proposed, and I chose the "other guy." I regret it till this day.
That was 15 years ago. I found him on line 2 years ago, found out he has been married 3 times in 15 years and was fixin' to get a divorce! He told me he kept trying to find "me" in those other women and just couldn't (yeah right.... but it was nice to hear anyway).
So, the man I am married to now. Well, let's just say it's more convenient than love and my heart is broken today. If anyone has love like Allie and Noah had, you are one blessed woman.
sniff. sniff. to all. Thanks you guys!!!!!!! nm

ashley madison dot com
Am I the only one who finds this offensive? it is a "dating" website specifically for married people looking to have an affair. Ironically, I saw the commercial for it while watching "Cheaters." I know I'm not supposed to be judgmental, but affairs are so hurtful, and I realize they sometimes just happen, but to actively seek out an affair on a website just seems really, really wrong to me. I try to keep an open mind but this is just over the top!
We bought some Ashley furniture sm
If the picture comes out (is there any way to preview before you post??), it is the sofa you see on the left and also the matching loveseat. We are very happy with it. But there is just my husband and me and our college-age son when he is home, so it doesn't get a lot of wear.
We just moved into a new house and bought new furniture for the living room and dining room. The other brands we chose were Hammary (dining table, chairs and sideboard) and H00ker (entertainment center). We are very happy with all of it.
LOL - it wouldn't let me post H00ker!
Ashley is married to the guy that played Christian on (sm)
Y&R. His real name is Christian something or other.
Be sure you sniff it too. Some of them
have a strong, odd smell that makes me a little ill.
Haven't bought any lately, but one trick I use is to put regular lotion on all the skin over joints so they don't soak up too much color. Fronts and backs of knees, elbows, ankles, soles of feet.
One product was spray on, but you still had to smooth it in to get it even. It was pretty good, but it does get on the floor.
scratch and sniff cat food labels...
so sick of Picky Pete! this kind?, this kind?, this kind? -- three a day is my limit of trying to guess his mood...
Thanks, Laura! I'm excited now! nm

to Now Laura and others: Separated sm
Separation papers were signed yesterday! Thank you to everyone for pushing me to make the decision. What followed was a visit to my pastor, visit to a women's advocate center, visit to an attorney, keeping a journal, him finding the journal and getting freaked out, and us making a separation agreement, which is now signed. It takes a year in our state for a divorce to become final.
Laura was my BF and after not talking to her sm
for 22 years, we got back in touch through classmates.com and now talk to her monthly.
Wow, Laura E, you are just an incredible ray of sunshine! Are you always
soooo positive?
Laura, what happened with the coat???? Any updates? nm

God bless your sis, Laura, I lost three babies in a row...sm
and had to have four operations just to get pregnant, I had severe polycystic ovarian disease all my life, the tears we both shed were unbelievable, but we would have gone on to adoption....thankfully, the last-distch operation which was risky worked and I got pregnant and had my daugher that same year (although I had a stroke with the pregnancy and a postpartum hemmorrhage where I almost went bye=bye), but I adore these kids even more, the two sons I had after Ashley were miracles, too. My friend who endured years of IVF was so SICK from all the meds and shots, she gained lots of weight, had horrible cramping at times, was nauseaous most of the time, and all she wanted was one healthy baby to love. As I said, she adopted finally, it took 2-1/2 years for it to go through, and THEN she spontaneously got pregnant and gave birth. So many stories like this!
perfume
If you like something light and flowery try Beautiful by American Beauty. Kohl's carries it. Smells wonderful. I also like Red Door but that is stronger, as well as I hate to say it but its Britney Spears perfume Curious.
Perfume
I have two. Armani for women and Cashmere Mist by Donna Karan.
my most favorite perfume ever!
and i love it!
perfume samples
Thanks so much!
Luke & Laura getting married again Tomorrow, 25 yrs to the day after the first time. Try and catch

The counter...
 You know the one, the countdown until Christmas on the main board. It is stressing me out!! It reminds me how far behind I am on my shopping.... I do not like to shop, but I hate having to be reminded that I am late.....
counter
I would counter for 140,000 and see what they say.
counter pup
The dog I mentioned above (Clara) is a counter pro. I hear ya!! I knew she could do the counter thing, so I put 5 wine glasses around a just-delivered pizza which I went outside for a second. When I came back in, not one glass was moved, but 3 pieces were gone... she was the only **one** in the house!! LOL
Clara is an average sized dog with great jumping ability. I'm amazed that a beagle can achieve that feat!! You must have one amazing doggie :-) I know, I should scold, but I have a soft spot... or 3...
Curious about perfume/cologne.
I want to buy myself a b-day present, new perfume. I need ideas on some light flowery summery ones, nothing heavy. What's your favorite?
So, what's your favorite perfume today?. ..sm
The original Burberry for me.  Cat
Lily of the Valley perfume...
I forget who makes it, it's a cheap brand and kinda cheezy but my mom always wore it and it reminds me of her and springtime and is my absolute favorite. I always put a spritz or two on when I'm feeling down and it's an instant pick me up.
You might feed the cat up on the counter.
That's what my sister does. Otherwise you could use a baby gate. I used to lean a baby gate in a doorway. The angle left an opening for the cat, but the dogs were afraid of tipping the baby gate.
You are buying great food though.
Counter Surfing
Our beagle gets up on the kitchen counter and eats anything he can get his grubby little paws on. We came home one night and he had eaten an entire bag of peppered beef jerky, including the little packet that keeps it fresh and is labeled "Do Not Eat." Another time, he took a package of chocolate candy off the counter and ate it along with the foil wrapping. He is also able to open the kitchen cupboards and has eaten pure cane sugar straight from the bag. Obviously, we cannot keep anything edible on the kitchen counter or in any of the cupboards within his reach.
To avoid this, I take an over-the-counter
supplement:
Fishoil + vit D + vit A,
all in one capsule.
The reson that your husband is deficient in vit D, although he gets a lot of sunshine mightt be that he is deficient in calcium.
The body needs to get enough calcium to be able to absorb vit D, and vice versa.
can you treat a UTI over the counter?
I am one of those lucky MTs that dont have health insurance and that makes it pretty annoying when I have probelms. Like right now I am sure that I have a UTI, but dont want to go to the ER and get that $600 bill. I bought some AZO and cranberry vitamin. I figure I will drinks lots of water and see what happens... any suggestions? Thanks a lot!
Perfume samples/trial sizes
I'd like to be able to buy some trial/samples of various perfumes. I've found a few random ones, even free ones, but I'd like to be able to try some of the expensive brands by just purchasing those small samples or trial sizes. So far I haven't found a very large selection of these websites and the ones I have found only had a few fragrances from which to choose. Anyone know where I can go to buy these for a decent price?
Thanks.
Yikes!! Yes, Abreva's over the counter.
I think it's around 18 for one of those little tiny tubes. Well worth it though.
Keeping kitties off the counter...
I have always had good luck with this. Cover your counters entirely with aluminum foil. Tape it down. Leave it a day or two. The kitties absolutely hate the feeling of the foil under their paws and won't go back. I have even used this on the back of a sofa and it worked there too. The picture of you sitting there by the tree, in wait with the squirt gun is priceless. All this kitty talk, I'm getting ready to go to the shelter and get me another little furball of love. Wise
My favorite perfume is Eternity by Calvin Klein - nm

Anyone on here with interstitial cystitis that has found anything over-the-counter that has
helped this problem.
Not weird..old Czech glass perfume bottles, some angels, old
s
what about the mom that smokes weed with her 2 year old left on the counter
that could fall off, grab a knife, who KNOWS. just so she could "FEEL GOOD".
this is a ridiculous argument. should it be illegal? who knows who cares, i look at it like anything else that alters your mentation, including alcohol.
both can turn out to be bad BAD decisions
do i personally care if you smoke pot once in awhile, no i dont but that's like assuming EVERYONE is doing it responsibly.
that's a joke
A lot of people are so desperate for work that some will give you free bids and give you ideas while
nm
Is that over the counter. I checked on Zovirax ointment and it costs $180 for a teeny tube. That
is crazy and the insurance wont pay a penny.
What a nice response by a nice mom
What a gracious, well-adjusted response to a rude, obviously maladjusted poster--Hard to imagine someone with such an empty life and such a petty spirit that they would take the time to post criticism about a kid's feet! (Some people really have major issues, LOL!)
You do not give them food, you give
the children food but if they did not have the food to eat, probably would call family and children services. I do NOT give away money to anyone.
Nice to know I'm not alone ...
my son is 20, and is finally taking his road test in 2 weeks, and even at his age I'm scared to death. Have been riding back & forth with him to college, lately I've been reading a book while he drives to be sure he isn't depending on me to watch out for things for him.
He has been learning on and off for years, one minute he wants his license, the next he couldn't care less. But I guess it's finally time now. And I do feel he is much more mature at 20 than he was at 16, but for most kids it's hard to get them to wait.
I'm not as nice as you, but
I recently tried to say something really nice to a person at church I admired, and who had just had surgery and was finally back at church. I said something about missing him and caring about him and he seemed offended. Everybody seems to love my husband, though he doesn't go very often, but they seem annoyed with me. Not sure what I did either.
I have a cat I got when she was 1...nice with certain
She is now 3-1/2 and she always hisses at my daughter and her fiance.....it's really not nice, and it's always ongoing, and I *think* she (the cat) may be jealous. I never had a jealous cat before. *lol*
I had a male cat for 13 years who died in 2004 and he did hiss but not at the daughter (but then she kind of grew up with him....)
hope it gets better with your little furkid...(cute!!)
It's so nice to know I'm not the only one
I have three children and have bottle fed all of them. With my first, I was so determined to breasfeed. I "breastfed" my daughter for 3 1/2 weeks. She always cried and I thought she was just colicky. Come to find out I was not producing enough milk and I either needed to supplement with formula or bottle feed all together. Well, I went home and cried my eyes out feeling like a terrible mother because after her first bottle she hardly ever cried again!!!!
It is so nice to know I am not the only one that had a problem like this. I have always felt so bad that I could not breastfeed. I do not think that other women should me made to feel that way. Breastfeeding is a wonderful thing, but it is not the only way to have healthy children. I was bottle fed and doing just fine and so are my three children.
I met her once - she was SO nice!

Very nice
But I'm in zone 7a! It might survive here, with southern exposure, but it would be iffy.
My hydrangea is just about to bloom, though - the blooms are somewhat similar. I thought I lost it over the cold, cold winter but it came back and has little florets all over getting ready to burst into bloom.
it's nice you appreciate her this way
there are so many nasty ones at that age that care only about their own image, no compassion for others. My daughter is like yours, too, and she cannot stand all the snotty immature ones - who raises kids like that.
nice!
have you ever heard of kicking a person when they are down? your posts are disgusting. maybe you did need your dad to give you some better manners. we are all thrilled that you have such a wonderful life. personally, wonder what you say to them when they are upset, scrape their knee, make a bad grade, wreck their first car, or are in a bad relationship one day. hope you respond better to them than you did this poster. shame on you.
Nice guy
I love random acts of ego boosters. :-)
nice guy
Just yesterday, my daughter and I (she drives with her permit) were taking my dog to the vet for a routine visit, and our dog was in the front seat belted in with his harness leash, with my daughter driving and me in the back seat. On the way home, we stopped for an iced cappuccino at a drive-through, and the young guy giving us our order kiddingly remarked to my daughter as to the fact that the dog is riding in front, and she "makes her friend" ride in the back seat. My daughter replied that it was her "mother", and he said, "Wow"! It made my day, but I take care of myself and have always looked younger than my age. I am a humble person, but I know I am attractive. I strive to always be in good health and in good shape.  That was a nice "pick-me-up."
Isn't it really nice to use?!
I've only tried the Bare Minerals and only use it when I go out, which isn't often, so it's lasted me a looooong time. I have skin that peels, breaks out, or gets a rash from just about anything I put on it--even baby moisturizers. This has been the only makeup I have been able to use without any of those side effects. It doesn't have any smell, any weight to it, and yet it magically covers and stays put. The only bad thing I've had happen is when I wore it and worked up a sweat this summer....it did make my face itch but nothing bad happened. I highly recommend it to anyone with uber-sensitive skin like mine and I'm glad you've enjoyed it too--no matter what the brand!
