I don't know. My husband hasn't told me yet. nm

Who told your husband? lol
x
If I told my husband and he did nothing...
then I would speak to her myself; that's just my way though. Of course it is disrespectful! Is he afraid of his mother or maybe is jhe just uncomfortable in confrontational situations? You're his wife, you come first now. Good luck.
maybe you daughter told her husband not to tell anyone so they could do it together -- then
he found he could not stand not being able to burst out with it, and came up with the hint-in-a-bag...technically keeping his promise to his wife. (Guys are stupid when they try to think.)
(and/or) perhaps your daughter wanted at least one day (or whatever) to get used to the idea and wallow in it just the two of them.
maybe?
You had every right to be upset. Your husband should have told his friend
and then would get back to him. Now, if you don't feel comfortable going on a long trip with your small children and their practically grown children, tell your husband you don't want to go and that since it's your money your earning as well that you want to have some say in planning a vacation and that it should be done together as a couple, even as a family, and not just by one person.
My husband told me I sound like a you know what when I yell. . sm
He said he just couldn't stand to hear me yell at the kids anymore. It was annoying him. I'm sure it was. All he wanted to do when he came home from work was sit in front of the tv and relax. Me yelling at the kids to do every little thing was really cramping his style. I stopped yelling at them because it really didn't help them listen anyway. If I had to tell them something more than once, I would turn to my husband and say "Jeff, it's your turn." Then he would yell at them! I can't believe how well it is working!
First thing my husband asked when I told him was...sm
Did she get married before it happened?
That is either the sweetest or saddest thing I have ever heard.
I'm sorry, I don't, but if she hasn't seen
a rheumatologist, I'd try to get her in with one. I hear the wait around here is a long one. I would definitely get people praying for her.
no he sure hasn't
but that's it
It hasn't too much, except in the 401(k)...
We are debt free but the house, the payment only requires one of DH's paychecks (he gets paid twice a month and then on the off weeks he gets his overtime check) or my paycheck for the month when I can get my lines in, we have never taken out a second mortgage or touched the equity in our home. Our mortgage rate is low to mid 5%, cars paid off, CC paid in full, great credit score and we live below our means. We still take vacations, eat in restaurants, etc. Our circle of friends don't seem to have any problem with this economy, other than investments. We are in our late 40s, early 50s, kids grown and gone, we don't pay for college. DH drives 66 miles round trip to work, but has an economical commuter care. Our SUV gets about 20 to 24 mpg, which compares to some newer ones out there.
My DH has worked for the same company for 25 years, however, layoffs are coming, and he is putting out his resume just in case. He will get a nice severance package, etc, if it happens, but we are planning in advance just in case. House is up for sale, a few very interested people, and if it sells we will make enough profit to buy a house free and clear.
We have always lived below our wage and I think that has helped us tremendously. Do we want new cars, TVs, etc, sure, but why bother, we don't want the payments that come with them. We are happy with what we have, don't have a lot of the gimmes or wantitis that has a lot of Americans in debt up to their eyballs with no way out.
Mine hasn't, but I went and got a
IUD (5-year Mirena, not copper) put in because I, like you, did not want to make that decision to never have kids again even though I am happy with the 2 I have.
The doctor and information they give you says that the IUD is as effective as getting your tubes tied. I have had no side effects and really almost don't even have a period now. If he decides against getting one, I would really suggest looking into something like this. It only cost me my co-pay of $20 to have it put in too.
If it hasn't faded yet, it probably won't but
the shades are usually based on your natural shade, not what color it is at the time.
The dark blonde should be fine, but just make sure to keep checking it because the longer you leave it in the lighter it will get. If your gray is already covered then you can ignore the extra time you are supposed to leave it on for that. Hope this helps!
P.S. For anyone who hasn't seen him perform sm
Check it out.
I know, she hasn't been on here in about a month or so
Hope she's okay.
It hasn't been long
No, I gained the weight during the time I was in pain and my uterus was swelling out of control (hormones), so most of the 3rd year post ablation. I had a lap supracervical hysterectomy with left oophorectomy (ruptured large complex cyst) on a Monday- up shopping in Walmart on Wednesday, taking care of my kid at home, too.
Since the surgery (which was only a few months ago), I have been able to change my diet and have lost 1 dress size, but haven't added exercise. If I did that, I know I could get the rest of the weight off. I'm moving next month to a place with walking trails built into the community and I hope to take advantage of that.
I do honestly believe the ablation accelerated my hormones, but like I said, everything about my body is extreme, so I'm the 1 patient in a million you hear about. When my doc first offered me the ablation, she told me that in my case, I would end up needing the hysterectomy anyway, but because I was so young the ablation would buy some time. She even said it probably would only give me 3 years before needing the hysterectomy, and her timing was exactly right.
Oh, and I have not had a need for HRT although I do have 3 hairs on my chin now (groin).
If this hasn't be mentioned before (sm)
Chances are the school has a policy regarding this. If not, the child/parent may have some recourse.
Generally school policies supercede general law and rights, i.e. search and seizure regarding lockers (they can go in them as they please).
I'm thinking if they imposed such a stiff penalty, they can back it up lawfully. It really matters not if we think it is right or wrong. If it's school policy (approved by the school board) and stated in the handbook every student gets at the beginning of the semester, then that's the bottom line.
Actually I do this already :( hasn't worked (nm)

Apparently MS hasn't seen the Mac
commercial making fun of Vista.
Neither do I, but it hasn't stopped me ;)

If you mean Britney Spears, who hasn't? lol
Sorry, I just saw the most recent article and pictures of her. My oh my.
Exactly - why hasn't Richard aged?
Or did they think showing him with longer hair when Ben was young would make him look young, too? Well, it didn't. He looks exactly the same. And does he wear eyeliner?? (Richard)
Ben is definitely twisted. I am sure Juliet is aware of his history and that is why she does not like him and shows no loyalty to him, other than just enough to keep him thinking she is still on his side. I don't know why she and Jack had to keep that secret from the rest of the group, though. If they had just said, hey, Ben is a psychopathic megalomaniac and he would kill Juliet in a hot minute if he thought she had turned on him, so she's playing along until we can take care of him, well, I think the group would have supported them. Now there are all kinds of hurt feelings and jealousy and divided loyalties. But I guess that's the point - drama, drama, drama.
And what kind of hold does Ben have over Richard and the others? It sounds like he is as afraid of Jacob as everybody else.
This just occurred to me - a lot of Polynesian islanders believe there is a god in volcanoes that makes the lava spew out when he is angry. What if there really is one? Named Jacob, maybe?
Just a WAG. 
Time to see the vet, especially if she hasn't had initial
ui
Book-in-bag still hasn't moved.
Except now it has a drillbit sitting on top of it for some reason....
She needs to apply for scholarships if she hasn't already.
My daughter did that and with the multiple scholarships that she got it covers nearly all of her cost and I pay the difference.
Mine's almost 47, hasn't changed. nm

He hasn't hit my child in 8 years, because (sm)
he knows I would turn him in. Has not hit me in 3 for the same reason. My pastor is giving me some resources and contact people to help me get out, not encouraging me to stay by any means. I don't go to that kind of church.
It hasn't effected by routine....sm
Not like a do a lot of beauty routine anyway seeing as how I work at home, but when I do put on makeup and stuff I haven't changed anything.
Why hasn't that hospital adopted the *Time Out*
The entire surgical team is involved in the *Time Out* and *Pause for the Cause* (called different things in different states). All involved in the surgery standing in the OR at that moment must be in agreement on confirming the correct patient, correct procedure, correct site of procedure, correct position of the patient, etc.
I went in for surgery and they asked me multiple times to repeat my name and the procedure I was coming in for as I went through multiple rooms on the gurney.
That is really scary that these types of errors are still going on.
Obviously, that is a hospital I wouldn't even take my dog to.
He hasn't lost a thing! Awesome performance!
I've always loved Prince and was not disappointed by his performance at the Super Bowl. Best halftime show I've seen in a long time (blew out Janet Jackson AND no wardrobe malfunctions!)
Hayseed, it hasn't changed my mind about little dogs
At the moment I am considering a one-year-old Papillon/Pomeranian mix that someone is giving away because she has a toddler and two dogs and lives in an apartment. It will be about a month or so before I will even begin the process, because we have to get my son settled at his new college first.
What Fox's health problems have done is made me aware of what to look for in a small dog, and what to have a veterinarian check for before I choose another dog. Fox was so stoic - he almost never complained, despite all the surgeries and pain he went through. I don't want to see another dog go through that kind of pain. It just breaks your heart.
If a person hasn't had a period in 13 years, doesn't that

Does your husband or significant other do this? Just now, at 7:30, my husband came home from sm
playing sports with a friend. After showering he comes downstairs naked and tries to start a conversation with me. My "office" is in the living room and he is standing in back of the couch so I can't see any private parts, just him without his shirt, but I can see enough to know he clearly is naked! I think he wants me to be amused or get turned on or something, but I'm not amused one bit. In fact, I keep working and basically ignore him.
Poor guy. I swear he thinks he's Vince Vaughn or something. I should at least smile at him but all I want to tell him is to put some clothes on! ugh!
Dh just told me a something
before it got back home. He took my oldest daughter to an out of town football game. Me and the baby stayed home as it is really too cold for her to be out. Well, he told me that this gal (recently divorced and hot to trot) came and sat by him and they were enjoying the game together.  He said people were staring. All I said was "okay." Okay, I need to keep my head. I should just trust Dh but we are having marital problems and the subject of divorce has come up but I thought we were going to put it behind us and work it out. Help me not blow up and blow it out of proportion. I can sometimes loose my head.
That's what they were told - sm
That the repair would be so obvious, it would be like night and day. I don't know, I guess if it were me, I would definitely want to know just exactly how much my premium would be going up before I made a decision. They do have the option of just havig their LR done for 200-300 dollars though, versus having the entire carpeting replaced and paying a higher premium. So, in reality, they will be paying for the carpeting anyway, like a poster above said.
He just told her (sm)
that he was about to compliment her, and that she could ditch the surprised act and just say thank you. He said something like that a couple of times, in other words to not act so surprised she's getting a compliment and like, really? really? me? and just say thank you, and that's what she did.
She really sang great last night, like she does just about every time.
Boy was I just told - NOT - sm
I just got a call from the mother of this girl who comes over now and then telling me that I am a horrible hostest and how dare I make her daughter feel uncomfortable.
OH PUH-LEEEEEEZ!
I'm laughing, hoping this means we won't see this brat OR her nasty witch of a mother darken our doorstep again.
So this is what happened. The girl comes over to "hang out". I was up from my desk moving a load of laundry from washer to dryer and when I walked back into my office, there she is, typing away on MSN messenger talking to friends.
It is a well known rule in this house by EVERYONE, including the kids that come over, that they do NOT even look in the direction of my computer because it is a company computer and my income depends on it. There are TWO other computers that are for family use. STAY OUT! Clear enough? Apparently not to this little brat.
I came back into my office and told her she needed to get away from my desk, telling her for the millionth time that it is my work desk only. I was nice at this point but not happy.
She then tells me "Just a second, I'm talking." That's when I blew a gasket!
I said, "Get out. Go home. Now." Very firm but not yelling and screaming like I would have loved to do. She turns around and makes this face at me, then pushes my chair back really hard as she is getting up and it bounces off my bookshelf, giving it a good rattle. So as she was walking out the door I simply told her, do not come back. You are not welcome.
Then her witchy mother called. I couldn't care less what the hag was yelling about so I just interrupted her and said, "HEY! She's 15. She should know better than to act like that in someone's home and if YOU don't teach her that BEFORE she does that somewhere else, this will NOT be the last time she gets the boot!" And hung up on her.
My kids were hiding in the hall giggling as all this took place. They never had the guts to tell her to get lost.
Before anyone tries putting a guilt trip on me... this kid is FAR from neglected, comes from a nice home, parents are well off, just SPOILED beyond belief and she believes that everyone should jump when she says jump. I AM NOT PLAYING ALONG!
I told her she should have said
They wouldn't like you either!
What nerve, what stupidity on his part, what ignorance. I am going to address how I feel about cats personally in a separate post and comment on some of the responses I have received. I am very appreciative of the responses and the dialogue back and forth. It is in some way healing, at least to me, and I hope to others.
tell her exactly what you told us
and she needs to be aware of the STDs out there..They think it will never happen to them, but it can...that is why talking with a GYN or nurse practitioner would be a good thing to give her pamphlets and brochures and also keep the lines of communication open between the two of you.
I was always told not to mix
your alcohols (wine coolers, beer, cocktails, etc), but more importantly don't break the seal or you'll be in the ladies' room all night.
Have Fun!!!
Perhaps I should have told the
whole story, but just wanted thoughts based on the information I did provide and the assumption that it did happen. What would you do if it were your child and you were certain that this is what was said?
Thanks to those who have responded. I look forward to seeing what others have to say as well.
Told her that already.

What I told
I have three - told them the truth. It worked for my daughters, worked some for my son. One of the big issues was "parties" and I just said no. They asked why. I told them that I knew them and did not think they would find it especially fun to watch their friends and themselves drink and ralph on other people's shoes. I actually described a few parties I had been to and all the graphic details. They believed me and decided not to go to parties until they were old enough to leave on their own power whenever they wanted. I just told all of them the graphic truth (my mother did not tell me and let me learn everything on my own - that was not such a good idea either in my opinion and she could have saved me a lot of grief if she had only spoken up. My son did drink when he was 18, but only at someone's home and says he did not drive. I believe him because he is now 37 and has no reason not to tell me the truth anymore. So, tell what you feel comfortable with. I think parents can have a big impact on their children when they are honest.
Have you told them what you told us?
I'd lay it right out to them like you just did here. Maybe they truly have no clue as to how it makes you feel.
He just told you
that he's looking for other options. He was being honest with you - he looked and hasn't found anything YET. Get a lawyer, get out of the marriage, and get on with your life.

When my MIL first told me.....
I told her that my SIL was lying. MIL said she thought so too until the doctor said she was pregnant. Still....no ultrasound or anything performed. Still holding out for this to be a false positive.
I have been told that once a dog sm
tastes blood the urge will never stop. I have no idea if this is true, but it seems to make sense in some cases.
I was told that
in the morning is the best time because the pregnancy hormone is most concentrated during that time.
Told ya so! About getting a cat, I mean
I remember when you posted about your mouse problem a few weeks ago. Good for you. I have a cat who is a mousing champion! He would rather catch mice than eat or sleep. I know it's gross, but I don't have any mice.
My DH has never hit me, told him before- sm
we married that if he ever did I would divorce him in two seconds flat (that and cheat on me). I will never put up with any man physically abusing me.
