Couples don't make things safe. A lot of times the pervert gets the wife to find the girl to lure her into a sense of false security. If you absolutely are going to do this, base it on the one with the penis, not the "nice" lady!

It's all in knowing dogs and knowing
what you're doing. My husband is a K9 officer and unfortunately sometimes he gets calls of pitbulls that have been left outside on a chain and they break the chain and go roam around the neiborhood. Does he kill them? No. Instead, he goes out there and gets the dog and puts it back on its chain and contacts the owner and tells the owner that if there is another occurrence that he will get a ticket and the dog will go to our nearby shelter. Dogs are what people make of them. A few years back it was Chow Chow, Doberman and Rotweillers that were talked about as being mean. An experienced dog handler knows how to handle any dog though.
Fabric softener makes towels softer, yes, but it also makes them less absorbent. sm
Which is, after all, the function of a towel, absorbency. :-)
you have no way of knowing
what any of these people would have been without it.
Knowing about the virus, I would
say no because it just gives a false security and the virus can hibernate so to speak for months before rearing its ugly head. If negative only for you, probably she would think fine and good, can continue on as nothing happened. I don't think teaching her a lesson by a blood test and surely not 1 so soon. I had read about some signs of the virus and saw a huge lymph node on daughter's neck and I probably knew then even before her landing in the hospital with excruciating headaches and high fevers. They asked her to give consent for testing (she was under 21) and hers came back false-positive for several sticks- finally had the most advanced test done and then showed so really the test never showed a positive ever. You know, your daughter might be of age to say whether or not she would have 1 done- check that out first. It was not left up to me to give my yes or no. You know with all the rules and regulations they have now days, things have changed to what it was- a child under 21- you used to give consent, check this out first before rushing into the office. Let me know what you find out- send me an email if you would like. Good luck.
Your knowing the wife well would be
much more important than you hubby talking to his buddy now and then. She's the one stuck with cleaning, getting a guest room set up and worrying about meals. Some women enjoy that, but many are just too busy to drop everything.
No , they are white and after knowing them
all these years, it was very suprising. Like I said, we all grive in different ways, but I never would have believed that some of the adults would need to be medicated. It is just tragic and painful to see.
Thank you -- it helps just knowing
I'm not the only one with a child like this. What I did learn from the child psychologist is that I have 2 other children who react normally to discontentment. Yes, they get angry and occasionally fight, but not to the extent that this one does.
I have threatened to call the police but never have. Maybe 1 of these times I will. I sympathize with you in your plight. I hope things continue to go well for you and your son. Thank you.
What does the bus driver knowing have to do with this? nm

Knowing him, he would just start groping me from

Good for you for knowing that!!! (& sharing) :-D (NM)

Yep, I've thought of all that but knowing her

talk about not knowing when to stop...
maybe someone should unplug your keyboard for today.
re: your first post before things got worse:
quote - If you knew about the possibility of having dementia in your mother and possibly subjecting you to same, why in the world would you ever think about having another child and running the risk of the child not having a mother by the time they are a young teen? That is sad in the fact of you writing a note just in case you are not in a mental state as she ages so she could understand. How old was your mother when she had to be put in a facility? unquote
First the writing the note part was a joke -sort of- and was written with tongue firmly planted in cheek. That this went over your head is sad. Secondly, it was not my pregnancy, it was unplanned, the child has already lost her birth mother, hence being my change of life child as I was not willing to lose the child to stranger adoption and I changed my life for a child I did not give birth to. Still standing by your original post?
Lastly, the child is almost 6 years and my mother went from independent living and driving to being institutionalized in less than 6 months, with her admission to a facility Oct 2008 (8 months ago)...meaning the child was already older than the age of 4 years and in my care before my mother's decline. My mother is 78. Am I still unqualified to be this child's mother? Should I have tied my tubes before having my two older children because my grandmother had dementia? Should my mother have tied hers and ergo avoided my birth? By the way, the child is able to understand much more than most (meaning you) about what happens to many elderly people by having watched the process and knowing the person my mom was before the dementia was so severe. How's that original post tasting about now? Welcome to the world of the sandwich generation. Oh yes lest I forget to say later, thanks for your support.
Sometimes it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Are you kidding? They will even more knowing the kids today : (

May you have peace knowing your love will never end. My sympathies
Beyond the Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wonderous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful--lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wondrful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

My main problem with calamari, besides knowing it's
some ocean creepy-crawly like squid or octopus, is that it has the consistency of rubber. Yuck!
IMO, I can't bring myself to watch The Nativity Story knowing
that the girl playing Mary, at only 16 years old got knocked up by her 19 year old boyfriend. What do you think?
I guess these are the times when people just assume without knowing...
I said when I answered her call "She seemed out of sorts, curt reply, telling me to call her back." Well, with all "assuming" that is going on, I assume people are not reading the post as I stated. If she thinks I am angry, I have told her to ask me. A person who assumes is wrong a lot of the time- as you were here.
That is what I was afraid of
Dh and I have had our 401k for years and this is the first year we each dipped out of it to make ends meet. I was working from home and got pulled in-house. I am spending $100 a week on gas plus another 120/week on daycare. I don’t know if I should count daycare our not because I would have my kids in daycare anyway. I am not talented enough to do MT and watch kids at the same time. Also, I am have been buying new clothes, buy lunch, vendors in the hallways selling anything from jewelry to clothes to stuffed toys to benefit the Children’s Miracle Network, United way, Hospital Auxiliary, or just goes into a fund for fellow employees who maybe suffering from hard times. Then there is always the in-departmental fund raises for birthdays, “so and so is going on a cruise lets pitch in a dollar” or some ones kid is doing a fundraiser for their school, sport or whatever and then coworkers selling Avon, Mary Kay or whatever and I just feel the pressure. Never in my life had I felt the pressure to spend, spend spend as this year that I worked in-house. What’s worse our name tags function kind of like a debit card, just swipe that sucker and they payroll deduct.  Sorry to vent but I want to be back home!
Were you afraid he would (sm)
try to take your children in spite? Were you afraid he would be worse during and after the divorce process??
I'm afraid to.
He was just a sobbing suicidal mess before the Concerta (54mg qd) and fluoxetine (40mg qd). I'm afraid to take him off that stuff! I don't know that he could handle being that down again. He's doing so well in school on that too. He has As and Bs, with one C compared to being years behind his peers last year. We go to the doctor again Tuesday morning. I know he's trying his hardest to help my son...plus I'm a sobbing pile of snot every time we visit about my son. The Respirdal (1mg qhs) seems to be helping him as far as the rapid cycling mood swings and the insomnia. We tried to talk a little bit about his maybe hearing things that weren't actually being said....thanks for letting me vent here. None of my friends understand. They all have been blessed with children who seem to function well and aren't high maintenance if that makes any sense.
What are you afraid of?
I pose that question to you because it was one that I had to deal with after wanting a real relationship but for some reason could not fully commit to anyone. That is not to say that I dated more than one guy at a time, it is just that I would not completely let him in my life. My fear was having something bad to happen to my girls by this man that I brought into their lives. So, now that they are grown, in and enjoying their lives/family, I want someone in my life for me....but that fear keep me from committing. Does that make sense to you? And it will always be there for me...
LOL! That's what I was afraid of...nm
I actually am more afraid of who is in
the kitchen than I am of the meat, especially our local restaurant because I see him shopping at the same store I go to and they are a family owned business here for a number of years. But I certainly see your point.
What I'm Afraid Of...& Not
I'm scared to death of flying. Have never been on a plane and never plan to be on one either, unless it is a dire emergency and I have no choice. Hurricanes scare the bejezzums out of me. After going through Andrew, Katrina, Rita, and Gustav, I think I will go as far north as possible next time...if I can afford to. I never want to go through that again...even being 90 miles inland, it is still terrifying when they hit here (the wind is what we have to worry about). I'm afraid of losing my home, my family, and dying alone as well. I'm also afraid of dust and pollen...I'm highly allergic to both and stay indoors when pollen season hits (which is three times a year here...for dust, I just try to keep the house as clean as possible).
I'm not afraid of spiders (unless they are black widows, which we have here), non-venomous snakes, raccoons, tigers, dogs (used to be), or being on or in the water.
I'm afraid
I'm a little scared to try this. I'm 45, but I'm really scared it'll tell me my brain is 72!!!
Are You Afraid Of Getting
Are you afraid of getting old? I'm talking about getting up in age & not being able to do for yourself, having to depend on others for your care.
No, I am not afraid
I honestly do not think that far ahead, and prefer not to worry what may or may not happen.
I'm very afraid of getting old and I'm not too far from it.
I have no daughters, just sons, but not one of them seems to want the responsibility of taking care of us in our later years. We do not want to go to a nursing home. We want to die at home.
I know I could not live alone on our property without a helping hand if something would happen to my DH and have been thinking about what to do since his surgery 2 years ago.Where would I go? What would I do? I surely don't want to leave this property after living here over 40 years, but don't know of any way to do it if something would happen to him.....and so, I think about it all the time. Even now, I have trouble taking out the ashes and definately (sp) could now carry the coal in now, yet living in the "country" for over 40 years, I don't think I could live in a town again to save my life.
No. Too afraid..sm
Too afraid I would transcribe everything absolutely strict verbatim, including background/cell phone conversations and the like.
I'm afraid I don't know cats...sm
Nearly as well as I know dogs, so I can't answer your question about whether it's normal or not (the hardened nipples) but it doesn't sound normal. It can't hurt to call the vet and ask.
I would also suggest that you make an appt. (if you haven't already) to get her spayed ASAP, because she can and very likely will go into heat again right away since it's that time of year (some people call the warmer months 'kitten season.')
I happened to find this website yesterday, while looking for something else: http://marvistavet.com/html/body_giving_birth_to_kittens.html
Here is a quote from it:
>> Nursing the litter generally suppresses the return to cycling but the average female cat is back in heat about a month after delivery of the litter. If she has access to a male cat, she will likely become pregnant before she is finished weaning the current litter. >>
Wow, before she's even finished weaning the current litter? Amazing (and a little shocking?!)
If you go to your regular vet, you can probably get her in to be spayed pretty quickly, but it will cost more than a low-cost spay/neuter clinic. (Might want to get her teeth cleaned too if she needs it, since she'll be under anesthetic anyway, and the anesthesia is usually the biggest part of the cost.)
If you go to a low-cost spay/neuter clinic it will cost less, but you might not be able to get an appt for 2-3 weeks or more. If she's in heat again by then, they will either not do the surgery, or (more likely) they will charge a little bit more for it because it makes the surgery a little more complicated (increased risk of bleeding when they're in heat).
I hope she's okay as far as her nipples. Can you let us know/give an update?
How many parents here are afraid to
let their kids play outside because of the numerous kidnappers and pedophiles wandering around your neighborhoods.
*Jou are afraid of my Guatamalaness!*
And how about the Guatamalan peasant soup he made up? I laughed until I cried first time I saw it!
Why are you afraid people would think you
Vagisil isn't just for yeast infections, just itching or irritation, so it wouldn't hurt for him to try it. You did say he used talc, but has he tried corn starch or baby's corn starch powder before going to work? Zinc oxide (Desitin?). Have you tried changing your detergent? Since he does use his arms all day, there would be constant friction in those areas, so a corn starch product might help cut down on friction, which seems to be what is causing his problem.
Ummm...a lot I am afraid
When we added our son about 4 years ago (he's 20 now with his own insurance, thank goodness) ours tripled! We're about to add our daughter too...but not til she gets a J-O-B...good luck!
Of course you're afraid
If you weren't afraid, that would be worrisome. The fact of the matter is, you haven't been in a marriage in 3 years. Separating is just making it official. Maybe he realizes this too. Divorce is never a one sided thing. It might be more one person that the other, but it's never totally one partner's fault.
The trial would be a good thing. It might clear both your heads.
You are so right. Often afraid to reply
becuase don't want to offend anyone. I really didn't think you were being mean, just want to make sure. BTW, my kids and my furkids are genuises! LOL!
Sounds like you are afraid of something!

I am afraid it would just infuriate him (sm)
I am so sorry about your friend :(
Over the years I have learned ways to calm him down some, by making him feel more in control of everything that goes on. If I get a restraining order right now, to him that is going to be the first shot fired and who knows what he would do after that. But I know there would be repercussions for me for doing that, for sure.
Afraid is not really the word....
I'm not sure what is but I am in such a midst of unknown and my age is CONSTANTLY on my mind, but only because I feel like I should have done so much more by now. I am not old by any means, (turn 28 next month) but I am heartbroken about it. Only because I just started doing the single thing, going out, having fun... I moved across the country last month... My mom always wants me to come back and settle down, get a "real" job because MT is not going to be around forever...
I just feel like I wish I did all this stuff when i was in my early 20s, not my late 20s.
When I was younger (just a few years ago) I really wanted a family and a house and a husband... now I dont care for those things. I still want them some day, but I don't feel the need like I once did. I just feel like my time is running out in the next few years but there is no end in sight to how i feel now (so much freedom!)
What I am truly afraid of is this: My biological clock not ticking ever again...
Nope, afraid not. nm

Afraid of the vaccine
I'm just afraid of the vaccine, especially if they rush it! I'm pretty sure the 1972 flu was the Hong Kong one. I had that.
Huh?!!? I'm afraid "macho-man" here
Can't think what's macho about this joke - if anything it's quite the opposite.
They were probably afraid of the crazy woman!
LOL
My cat is afraid of aluminum foil --
but doesn't mind vacuum cleaners, hair dryers, or leaf-blowers!
>^..^<
You are right - not indicative of all but he is afraid to tell his parents (sm)
So that tells me it is not a safe or good situation.
Should add, these neighbors are not nice at all! I am afraid of what sm
they will do to me and my family if I tell them what I did. I'm just being completely honest with you.
I'm afraid you're being played...
Please put a stop to this now and don't let him take advantage of your kindness any longer. I agree with the other posters, seen this many, many times on those judge shows...good luck to you.
I am not upset that you are afraid of pits...sm
I could understand that. Totally understandable based on media hype these dogs get. But to make the comment that they should be illegal is uncalled for. My dog is not vicious and you have no right to make a comment about a breed of dog chances are you know nothing about except what you hear. You might have well have said my child should be illegal. I love my dogs very much.
People who are so rabidly against it ARE afraid of it -
X
That's what I was afraid of. I haven't heard of anything either. sm
Unfortunately, I decided not to call the parent as I kept thinking about our earlier conversation when I called her about her child slapping my son. She had every excuse in the book why she could not come get her child. I was insistent this child was going home because of her behavior and ended up giving in and saying she could stay based on all the excuses her mom gave me. If I was called and told my child had slapped someone at a vistor's house or anywhere for that matter, it wouldn't take me more than 5 minutes to get there and get my child. I'll just have to chalk this up to like mother, like child.
Too afraid of meat in restaurants now sm
Their meat may be old (sorry). If we do go, will only go to very busy place as even some bought at market are questionable. We have gift certificates which we appreciate as they are from busy places. Sometimes we have a "UFO" party. Unidentified freezer objects - if they're too old we throw them out. Buying light these days.Takes common sense, hopefully things will turn around in ཅ but for now I am being extremely careful and not loading up on meat either unless we intend to eat it soon. Perhaps I'm too cautious but things are rough right now for everyone, even the markets, restaurants, etc. I sure hope the turkeys are okay, even in good times we've gotten "bad ones" - have to open them up and be sure. Martha likes to brine hers in salt water - not a bad idea these days to check them out before it's too late the day of or the day before. Fresh is best - wish we had our own farm as some do.
