so I take it he's not sexually mature yet?

So right. Shawn is probably much more mature

If you are both mature and desire a child sm
I was immature for the first, thought I was mature ten years later for the second and now that I'm too old to have one, wish I had more but it's too late. This is not an answer but a longing that I wish I had more than two and it's too late. My husband did not want another as the first had medical problems, so we waited ten years and I am sorry I don't have more kids. I love kids! Also, my MIL didn't like kids and was not happy, complained about both pregnancies as "another mouth to feed". Each time I see a happy family planning for a baby, I cry. If it is going to make you both happy, do it, you will be the happiest in your life when you hold that child. Just IMHO. It will work if you want it to. If you wait until you "afford" one, you never will. Children are beautiful and worth it, they enrich your life, why else would you get "married"?

I like the idea of not crating now that dog is mature enough. Never heard of that sm
and sounds like a possible solution to OP's problems. She did say that the dog was just fine next to her while sleeping on the couch. Good idea. She should try this.

And incredibly mature and smart. You are blessed. nm

Yes, I think it's the most mature decision she has ever made. When she dropped out of school, we
suggested the military and she went ballistic, but a see a few signs of maturity and now she really views it as a career choice for her. She was told if she went into healthcare that she could be tending to the injured etc.but that she wouldn't be on the front lines. Then again, I was also told that recruiters will say anything to get you to sign LOL..

I thought about it too. Michaels has lots of beads. Just wondered if my mature

Find a lawyer, find out where you would stand - sm
in the event of a divorce/separation, regarding custody, house, etc. Custody was my main concern as well since I lied on numerous occasions about the finances. Where I am I was told that would not factor in to the custody at all. I can prove that I am my kids caregiver 90% of the time, I ferry they around everywhere, help with homework, get ready for school, meet at busstop, etc. I could also point out my husband is an alcoholic, self treats his depression with alcohol instead of getting proper medical treatment, has threatend to kill himself (or me) numerous times (though he always says he was joking and did not mean it.....that is his standard answer to everything, or that he never said that). Now I do love him enough to deal with all that because deep down inside my DH is full of it, luckily for me, he has never followed through on anything he says he is going to do. But I thought my confession would be the straw that broke it all and send him over the edge. He still is angry with me, I am sure he will be for a long time, but is keeping it together pretty well, though he has said the stress was going to kill him, now he know how I felt I guess. I am sorry your husband is such a smuck. I feel like a dog sometimes with the sex demands, have to do it the night before he goes out of town....he will be traveling a lot for work for the next 3-4 months, which I am more than glad about, much calmer here then, though it gets tiring for me but as he is not really helping much right now it really won't be much of a change. As for yours going on 5 day weekends.....have you considered having him followed, sounds like there may be some infidelity afoot, and if so that would strengthen your case in the event of a divorce and custody I would think. Sounds a bit fishy going out until 1 a.m. and his frequent trips. My DH fishes too, but he goes 2 miles from here with one of our male neighbors, they shoot the breeze and he gets to unwind some which I encourage. Very rare weekends with a buddy of his, I am talking once every 2 years, which again is fine with me. Start keeping track of all you do, when he is home, where he supposedly goes, with whom, etc. He cannot show he will be a responsible dad if he is never there or never interacts with his own kids. My DH would probably suggest I take our older daughter and he the younger, spliting them up, he has the same perception, the oldest is mine, the youngest is his. Our younger daughter is much easier to deal with, our older daughter drives him nuts and she is only 10. My younger one (8) knows something has been going one though, and worries we will divorce, which she does not want. She is very perceptive for her years. I hope that if you do go the divorce route, which would actually probably be best in your situation, that it all works out for you and you get your fair share of assets, etc. Make sure before you do anything like that you have all your ducks in a row, so talk to divorce lawyer. I talked to one for 45 minutes, cost me $160 but was worth it to set my mind at ease. Good luck.

Looking for ~K~ names...

Hi everyone! I am looking for a name that begins with K...Do you any of you have the perfect ~K~ name for the perfect baby girl coming to our family? Thank you all for your suggestions!!!

K names
Kara, Karaleigh, Karissa, Kaela (derivative of Kayla), Korrie...all my granddaughters

Pet's names
Siberian Husky is Spunky; Blue heeler is Blue; Cats-Kitty, Sweetie, Ginger, Turtle, Killer, Twinkie; goats-LuLu, Bonnie, Clyde, Blackie. Rest of the goats have no names and neither do the 30-somwthing chickens! BTW, kids named several of these!

You do not have to name names, you
gave the state and all a person had to do was Google about student murdered in the state and the name is there.

well, I don't like it. Names are
hurtful and unnecessary. Does he not realize he is the measure for this child as he grows up? and that everything he will learn about being a good father himself he will have learned from his own. While he needs to mind, he does not need to be made inferior doing it.

Why would you consider the names
more different??? Everything has a name.

Names for a dog...sm

My husband and I are going to be getting a new puppy within the next couple of months. I don't know if it is going to be male or a female, but we were just having a discussion about what we should end up calling him/her. We are looking for somthing origional (no "spot" or "fido" or anything like that lol). Something funny maybe, but nothing we would be embarassed to call him/her in public.

What are some of your guys' favorite "pets" names?

Thanks!!!

Dog names

Well, we named Bumper said name because as a puppy, he was clumsy and bumped into everything.

We loved him so dearly that 20 months later, Maggie came along (her AKC papers read Bumper's Princess Magdeline). We actually named her after Maggie from The Simpsons, who is such a sweet and innocent child. Now, Hubby wanted to put "Bumper's Lady Margaret" on her AKC papers but I told him I have an aunt named Margaret that I don't like, so it became Bumper's Princess (that, she is) Magdeline. Plus, I liked the biblical reference.

Toby, our rescue, was already named. I guess his original name was Oliver (how cute!!!!) but his first owners changed it to Toby. Then, when he was around 3, the mother got pregnant and decided she didn't have enough time for him. Don't get me started on folks like that. Dogs are a lifetime commitment (unless there are aggression issues, etc.).

Now, we have so many nicknames for each dog, it's not funny. If you want to hear them, I'll post them when I have time. Somehow, Bumper ended up being called Beef but I don't remember why.

Also, we've tried to breed Bumper and Maggie (our rescue is a neut) with no success. If they ever do have puppies, I'm going to do a theme. Right now, I'm thinking of names from the Broadway play Cats. There are so many cute names in that play!

Names...sm
I know someone else who named their dog DOG and pronounced it the same way. I thought that was the coolest thing.

Right now, I have cats Lucky, Tripp (Named for Matthew McConaughey's character in Failure to Launch), Stella, and the newest edition is Smokey, but I call him Max. I like people names for animals, too, so you can see who I didn't name. Over the years, I've had Mickey, Max, Sam, Pete, Chloe, and Sneezer (all cats) and my dog was Casey, who passed last summer at just shy of 13.

You are correct...
except for one thing: It was never a war. It was and is an illegal invasion and occupation of a sovereign nation. Since the invasion was illegal (based on lies) Mr. Bush is guilty of war crimes. Hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi's are dead - on Saddaam's worse day he never massacred like this...

And our news media WILL NOT tell you the truth on any day, but the numbers of US soldiers horribly wounded is astounding - all because of the many war profiteers - including mainstream media.

Everything you said is correct

The muslims are demanding foot baths in the airports so they can wash their feet. I think they might have gotten them somewhere, but not 100% sure. They are also the ones that threw the fit last Christmas about the Christmas decorations in an airport and none for whatever holiday they celebrate. AND THE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS WERE TAKEN DOWN!! Now, I'm sorry, but something stinks here. I know this probably doesn't belong on this board and might be deleted, so I apologize in advance to the moderator, but I am so sick of the symbols of Christianity being shoved into a closet somewhere, especially at Christmas. I do not sent out holiday cards and I do not put up a holiday tree and my kids don't have winter break. I put Christmas in front of all of those words because that is the reason for the seaon, in my house at least!

Okay, stepping off my soapbox, bowing in apology to the moderator, and going about my business. Have a great day!

Oh, and to the OP, sorry you had to take YOUR decorations down, too. I just don't get it sometimes.

You are correct in a way sm
There is definitely something wrong with her, that's why we have to help her, that's all I'm saying. It's been out of her hands for a long time and she has had so many young people follow her that she needs to straighten up and "fly right" as my Mom used to say, so that the younger ones who adored her can learn that there is hope in recovery let's just pray she recovers. Your decision to not do this is totally correct for what you believe in. My take is a little different, I want her to straighten out and become a spokesperson for those who have become addicted and try to show remorse and accountability, which is going to be almost impossible but at least she could try. If she dies from her bad behavior, she will be a "saint" to those who still believe in her rise to stardom. (i.e., Anna Nichol, Marilyn, etc.).and extreme behavior. The young are vulnerable. Those of us who have walked our talk know better. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm hoping for a turnaround, that's all. Expect a miracle! Her children would benefit much more from their Mom in recovery becoming a power of example than dying drunk or stoned. Some speak from their own childhood experiences. I'm thinking of her little ones now more than her. I guess I've heard too much in my life (or is that hurt)? IMHO

You are all correct and thanks...
Causing it I believe is my own guilt that I am not doing everything 100%, job 110%, kids 110%, house, etc. And yes, I am forgetting about myself.
I don't want to quit my job at all, I remember that I love it. I just need to balance really my mind and time better so I take the stress off myself.
And you are correct. I did pamper myself already a bit today. Went to a local store having a sale and got a pair of shoes. Maybe go get a manicure tomorrow. I also took a major step and joined Gold's gym where I can finally get out of the house anytime I want and go on the bikes and I signed up for tanning hoping that the sunlight will cheer me. My little boy went and is excited about the Wii and rock climbing wall he can play on there when I am working out. So, doing these things today and tomorrow will make me better for my job, and my family. And for me! At least I hope I am doing the right thing. Of course, I have to type more now that I just spent money on shoes and the gym, but maybe those phermones from working out will kick in as well. Anybody else have suggestions would be dearly appreciated. And thanks for your kindness.:)

correct
I had it so bad I could not sit at all for about four months without being in agony. I enrolled in a yoga class at the YMCA. It took several months, but it finally healed and I know the exercises to do when it flares up.

Correct.
Leave them open when you pay them off so it shows you have available credit.

I know a couple who wanted to buy a house. They paid off all their credit cards and closed the accounts thinking they would have a great credit score. Guess what? Nobody would give them a mortgage because they had NO credit at all. In this situation, you're da**ed if you do and da**ed if you don't.

TinyLyn's names

Screen names...how did you come up with yours?

So how or why did you come up with the screen name you use here?

blondie_1147, deenibeeni, cherrychecked, phillygal, LinK, Just the big bad, backward typist, gourdpainter, PAMT, PAMT~MDM, mtmomof2, Twiters, XanaX, Silly Girl, Old part-timer, SkateGirl, Just Me, starving artist, Horski, Lolabug, GabbyChick, Kendra, sbMT, Kaydie, Marmann, Amanda, Stardust and all others?

Those are AWESOME names...sm
Our pastor gave our group the name The Lighthouse Gang, but I like you suggestions much better!!!

No names, none at all listed.
My brother and I were kids ourselves then but even his wife (stepmom to me) not listed.

Human names
I name all mine human names as they are a part of the family. Plus, when you meet someone by that name it is hilarious! I especially love old fashioned names for them. Right now I have a Hazel, Eliza, Eleanor and Stella that I named. Named one Nick as I found him at Christmas time for St. Nick.

OUr pets names..

At the moment we only have dogs, you wouldn't be interested in the coon dogs, dh named them Bob & John..lol..

we have an australian named Rex

dh also named this other dog Zip (because he runs fast)

We have had in the past, horses, other dogs, cats & a rabbit in the house

Rowdy, Dusty (was a dog & a pony), Sadie, Smokey, Bandit, Laddie, Freckles, Gus, Sheba, Spek, Skippy(rabbit), Bo, too many others to think...Fluffy, Josie (cats)

some others I like Amos for a dog, a friend had a blue heeler named amos

but I agree with the other post about seeing the animal FIRST.. then go from there, I have to look at a dog or any other animal before naming them..

Since so many of you posted about your pet names....sm
I figured I would post some of the ones that I remember from current/childhood pets.

DOGS: Cody, Ginger, Roxanne, Molly, Toby, Murphy, Patch, Zoe, Cassie, Tater, Reno, Gretchen, Sally, Baby, Heidi, Bear Dog.

HORSES: Missy, Rose, Bubba, Charlie, JJ, Shadow, Vet (like Corvette), Cherokee, Dusty, Stormy.

CAT: Spanky.

FISH: On Oscar named Skit (short for schizophrenia, he has multiple personalities, I swear it!).

Correct me if I am wrong
but I believe worms are hermaphrodites so the "males" would be able to get pregnant....

Now the correct sentence for her would
have been 30 years.

What is wrong with our system??

Yes, beliefs would be correct. Why would you sm
live your life like that - not being positive or certain about anything? I, for one, believe in God deeply and I take Him at His word and if He makes a promise I hold Him to it and He's yet to forsaken me. Unless you've been there I guess you can't understand what I mean.

I know things can happen. I've been through some extremely difficult times in my life (losing a child), but I do say words like refuse and I AM, or I WILL and then I do them. I don't leave my life up to chance. I don't say I hope to do this or that. If I want something bad enough I go after it and usually don't quit until I get it. Yes, it's in my beliefs. It's my core. It's who I am. I am very positive, despite the many setbacks I've had in life.

I wonder if that is a correct diagnosis

Her symptoms sound more like what a couple of people I know experienced with cardiac arrhythmia. I don't know the exact diagnosis, but one of them was treated with ablation and is doing well, and the other had a pacemaker and defibrillator implanted and is doing well. These women were both in their 30s when they started experiencing symptoms.

I was a military wife for a long time - there are some good doctors in the military but they can be few and far between. I hope your friend will ask to be referred to a non-military cardiologist.

You are precious. You are correct. I'm with you 100%, Jan. nm

Being politically correct...

I don't want to cause any problems, commotions, arguments, or what have you - I just want opinions/advice on the following:

We are a small office of 6. Every year, we decorate for Christmas - put up a small tree, hang some ornaments from the ceiling tiles, wrapping paper on the door. This year, the newest member of the team is JV. Though he does not talk about it, push the subject, etc, he has very politely and quietly sent me emails regarding that he doesn't celebrate birthdays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. SO, the question is... how do we decorate the office without offending anyone?
