I think sometimes men are not supposed to have a soft side

some think of as not being masculine but he shows me a calming, soothing, softened touch that I could just eat out of his hand. If he could bottle and sell, women would make him rich beyond his wildest. He is from a very large family, 11 in all and get this- none of the guys (around 7 or so), all married and not 1 divorce in the group! I think that speaks volumes- the range of age is from around 60s down to the upper 40s. I accused him of sprinkling gold dust in my eyes because years later still have that same feeling!

Oh, and double check which side you are supposed to sleep on (sm)
I think it is your right side. I slept on the opposite side from the correct one but can't remember which is which...one side will help your body filter out toxins and the other side makes it harder.
Soft porn pictures, how about your soft porn posts?
Go climb back in your slime ball life.
When 2 cars ride side by side on the interstate...sm
and block traffic so nobody can pass. I will get irate over this. I don't know where people's brains are.
There's one side, the other side, and the truth
And boy is it true.
I will say you sound like my aunt, who never speaks up, gets walked all over and then cries about it later.
Her kids/grandkids have no idea why she is always depressed, they think nothing of doing whatever they want without regard for her because she hasn't expressed an interest or opinion on anything and they don't know any better.
Yes, they use her. Yes, they could do things for her, but she never asks anything or says anything, so they don't press it, because it's always been that way. And she's a martyr, so it'd upset her pattern if things actually changed.
And the truth (and maybe reconciliation) lies in the middle somewhere.
Sad.

Soft Paws (sm)

Wear a soft t-shirt for a while and
leave it in her favorite place to sleep so she will have your scent. Mine love to sleep on my clothes!
soft paws - yes they work :)
Hi,
I moved recently, and we brought my daughter's cat with us. There was no way we could do anything else with him. He is an older cat, and they have grown up together. We moved into a beautiful home, but there was no way I could bring myself to declaw him, especially at his age. It just wasn't an option. So, we researched what we could do for him, and we opted to "try" the Soft Paws. Well, they have been a godsend for us.
Some advice - you do have to clip their nails before putting the paws on, so you need a good clippers and need to be very careful for the vein that runs through the claw. If you are not comfortable trimming their nails, of course you could get it done professionally. The plastic covers slip on and are glued over the clipped nails. You do need to be very careful to get the proper size. They go by weight, and my cat actually needed the large - he didn't meet the weight, but he is a bigger cat, and his feet are just bigger :P. If they are too small, they come off very easily, and I think they are uncomfortable for the cat. Also, they do need to be replaced about every 2 months - they fall off eventually as the nail grows out, and you need to repeat the process. We find that it is worth it though, even with the little nail caps laying around on the floor occasionally! :P
My "furkid" adapted very well to the soft paws... so I would definitely consider them as an option. Hope this helped! :D
Yes, it is soft and scratches easy because...sm
bamboo is not really a wood, it is a grass turned into a *wood* - it scratches easily (kitty litter can scratch it) and so it's *shoes off* in my house. *laughs* I studied woods for 5 years before I made my choice, knowing all about it scratching easy but since my kids are ALL GROWN UP....no problem here. *S*
Our husky is getting soft, he is really good - sm
about coming in when called for the most part (not when he lived with my dad though). But on the cooler nights he tends to drag his feet coming in. Or just give me a look from down where he is lying on the deck ( you know how husky's are) and you know he is thinking I will coming in when I am darned ready to. I then check back in 5 or so minutes and he will come in then, so funny. I usually leave the dogs out until I am going to bed (11-12) and he runs right in and lays down on his dog bed and goes right to sleep. Need to start walking him though, he gained like 10 pounds this last year and he is a big boy as it is (85#-- does not look overweight though which is good, still has a nice waist just a little thicker than it should be) and he only has 3 legs so that is not good for him (2 front, 1 back). Maybe after dinner now that it is starting to cool down, way too hot before with all his fur.
bread; soft fruit

Wow! I actually use medium, but not soft. I don't understand sm
how you have cavities due to a hard toothbrush? I mean, cavities are caused by not brushing.
And root issues due to a hard brush? Again, I'm not disputing what you are saying, but enamel and gums are two completely different things.
And 2 minutes is the minimum that you should brush your teeth. The only thing I will retract in my post is the firm brush - medium is good -soft for sensitive teeth.
If soft porn could possibly be more

I have a soft spot for this story. sm
My aunt went through a similar story. She had a highschool sweetheart, but the families couldn't get along. So, Aunt went off to college, met and married. Had 2 boys. HS sweetie went to different college, met and married, had 3 kids.
They met at 30th HS reunion. Both divorced and alone, children grown up. Both lived in different states so decided to write back and forth via email. After a couple years, they moved closer to one another and started dating. A year later they were married.
They were very happy together and planned their retirement time to spend traveling the country in their RV. They got 5 happy years together, including 1 year of retirement. Aunt got very ill and died suddenly.
Moral of story: Life is shorter than you think. Do the best you can with what you have.
There is teacher's side of story, kid's side of story

My mom painted hers a soft gold color
in the family room, and it looks great. If you have built-in cabinets in the same room, sometimes you'll see contrasting colors used for the inside back, and that can look interesting.
Hmm, hard water versus soft
Well might have thought about that but this was noticed as soon as the tile installed and has never been mopped so nothing like that. Heavens only knows where these little spots came from but definitely not water route.
My dentist says SOFT toothbrush, never firm!
All these years, everyone thought stiff brushes were better than soft, and the harder and longer you brushed, the better. WRONG! I now have lots of cavity and root issues going on because I have essentially worn off much of the enamel on my teeth between the gumline and the center of the tooth. Have had to have more cavities filled, as well as lots of restorative work. Now I use a soft baby's toothbrush!
Fixing a flat (soft drink, that is)....... (sm)
I do this one all the time: Ever leave half a Coke in the fridge, only to come back later and it's FLAT? I simply open up a new one and add some in with the flat stuff, and the result is actually a smoother, yet still carbonated soft drink. And then you haven't wasted half a can.
Coffee ice cream or soft serve vanilla
or chocolate case with fudge icing or butter cake with chocolate frosting or ... how many - just ONE?
yes I do, i like soft music, might even have on a CD of Frank Sinatra. Very calming. nm

I'd cook the rice first to make sure it's soft and edible
s
Soft high-quality black & red licorice bites.
Oh my gosh I found this kind that the store Target sells that are made in Australia, and they are just the best pieces of confection I have ever put in my pie hole.
Green bean casserole - need a soft veggie dish!
I just went on line and found ultra soft brushes from Oral-B and
a few others. I hope this helps someone. The pack of 6 was $18.99, I believe.
Roast up onions & peppers for fajitas. Make roll-ups out of them with soft
s
Rolls, dessert (some kind of soft pie or chocolate pie). Instead of potato salad, maybe sm
mashed potatoes since they are edentulous. Green bean casserole was a great idea. Corn casserole too is yummy.
Yeah, the True Blood series is basically like soft porn...
definitely not advisable for a 14 year old!!!
And what was she supposed to do
tell her to get back on the boat to her face? Give me a break, who hasn't done something similar? Who hasn't made a nasty remark about an aquantaince or neighbor and then smiled and waved when they saw them again? You people really crack me up. Most of you are women. Women gossip. Admit it and get over your holier-than-thou selves. lol
How sad that you think everyone is supposed to think like you do
Very arrogant IMO.
being an IC, you are SUPPOSED to be able to--sm
set your own hours. Had I been asked, I may have volunteered to work, as I have no one at home, but I did have plans to spend some time with my mother and my grown children for various functions. I was not asked and when I emailed and said what days and times I would be available to work this holiday, I was told the work needed to be returned to the doctors by Tuesday, so I did not have a choice but to get it done. Perhaps there will be a *little extra* charge on my invoice this next two weeks, as well. I also have been working every weekend for the past month, seven days a week, and I am pretty burnt out, as well. and yes, I have asked for the weekend off many times, in case someone mentions it, and have been sent work anyway. I am really getting tired of being treated this way. I know I have to take a stand, and soon. I cannot continue to work seven days a week and holidays, for my own health and sanity. Something has to change, and soon. I have told my employer this, but it does not seem to make any difference to her. thanks again for listening. ks
Is this supposed to mean something
Ok, so what is SP supposed to do then?
All of you gals are smart enough to know that teenagers are going to do what teenagers want to do and there is only so much talking/preaching/begging a parent can do about doing the right thing.
No, Bristol should not have gotten pregnant, that was stupid but it was her stupid mistake, not SP's and SP and her husband are being supportive parents. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that! BTW, I speak from experience, I did the same thing to my parents when I was 20 and it had absolutely nothing to do with what they did or did not say to me regarding sex. It was my choice and I knew the consequences. They were supportive of me and showed me mercy that I did not deserve.
What is this supposed to mean?...sm
Push 1 for English
Push 2 for Spanish,
so what? Hispanics are the largest minority in this country, therefore.
BTW, I am NOT Spanish, but 'Push 1 for English' does not bother me at all!
How narrow minded.
Am I really supposed to tip
At the new pizza place I go to, I call to order my pizza, then go to pick it up twenty minutes later. The man behind the counter hands me the pizza and takes my money. He has a tip jar on the counter. Am I cheap if I don't tip for this? I worked a lot harder for my customers in the gift shop, and I never asked for tips for that.
Well Mary was only supposed to be 13-14 and . . .
not everybody believes it was an immaculate conception.
How about *she was suppose to*, when it should be supposed to : )

I don't get this from her note, her DH was supposed -sm
to be helping with the kids so she could bring home money. I am sure he has no problem spending any money she makes, but he does not want to be inconvenienced in the course of her making the money. I know, I have the same problem but not as bad as she does. My older daughter did not even know she had a dad basically until she was about 19 months old, then my DH had absolutely no choice but to help as I gave birth to our second daughter. At that point he'd probably only changed 2 diapers. But with kid #2 he helped more than he did with the first one, but still under some duress. To this day he still won't brush their hair, or supervise/help with teeth brushing (he says he doesn't know how to do it, well he does it himself so where is the problem), they are 6 and 8 now. You never feel pestered by your kids, you get on the phone and instantly they want you and nag you to death until you either lock yourself in the bathroom or get off the phone, then they don't want/need you anymore. Yes, I feel pestered sometimes, doesn't mean I don't want to take care of my children, I'd die for them if necessary. The poster is frustrated, obviously being verbally abused and has a jerk for a DH. I can relate and I am sure many others can too. It is hard to be supermom, work, clean, take care of the kids/house, make DH happy, everyone but you comes first, and then when the DH has to actually help out boy you'd think you were cutting off his leg. Well, mine is not like that now, but he used to be. Now he is good about it and likes his time with the kids on his own but they are older now and easier to deal with. They still can drive you nuts though. I hope she can somehow get him to turn around, maybe stop working for 2 weeks and when he sees the money is not coming in maybe he will realize just how important it is that she have the time to work without interuptions and pitch in some to lighten her load.
Keep calling them, they are supposed to pay - sm
for the vet bills, granted that is of little solace but you should not have to pay for their negligence.
I know this is supposed to be about BFing
with you. You could smother them with your big 1/2 dollar nipples ya' got going there! LOL - sorry had to add to this one! I don't really care if you BF or not, but once the baby can hold a cup or be potty-trained no less (most are starting to potty train now by 2), they SHOULD NOT be feeding from a woman's breast especially someone else's child! That's disgusting! If he/she is going on the potty, they are going on the cup! 
Inside this was supposed to say
thud
but I put it inside brackets so it disappeared. I'll try it with spaces:
< thud >
Darn! How are we supposed to
be able to notice if we get cancer with never-ending night sweats from hormonal changes??
I believe your witnesses are not supposed - sm
to be beneficiaries of the will. As for 2 witnesses, I always thought it was 1 witness. But I just looked at my will and it had 2 witnesses, 1 was the lawyer and the other someone from his staff. Banks notorize too, I'd call your bank and ask if they would witness the will and notorize it too. That would be the easier route I would think, and I am sure they are probably used to such requests.
above supposed to say - you crack me up!! nm

Dachshunds are supposed to be
odor-free, so there is something going on, possibly yeast or seborrhea or teeth or ears or something. I'd say it's time for a visit to the vet.
How am I supposed to get work done now!
This site is hilarious. I'm only up to page 12.
First 800,000 supposed to be deposited
My DH's SSN ends in 03, so I'm hoping we'll get ours today. Nothing yet. We did do direct deposit for our tax refund too.
Sorry, this was supposed to be for Gary, but
your kitties are precious, too!! Aren't they all just messes? Gotta love 'em! 
women are supposed to have
babies, not litters.
My dad was supposed to do the same thing - sm
but I don't think he is now that he is remarried and had become "reborn", now goes to church, bible study and sings in his church choir....all after not going to church since 1971. He rediscovered religion again at about age 65, would read the bible some, but really got back into when he met my stepmother 4 years ago. He is 74 now. So I expect my stepmom will pull out all the stops for his funeral, but that is her preogative as she will be footing the bill. I think they are the biggest waste of money personally. I find it amusing the when people get closer to their mortality they turn to religion. My DH and I plan for cremation and having our ashes scattered nearby. No funeral, no service. My DH absolute hates funerals so it would be kind of silly for him to have one. I know his parents are having them and being buried at a Veteran's cemetary near where they live. His dad is a vet of the Korean war so they both get free burials there. Of course they will still funeral home costs, as I know they will want viewings though most of their friends and family are dead or have moved from the area so there won't be too many people to attend when the time comes. I will have a heck of a time making him go to his own parent's funeral when the time comes.
