and it's great to have a fresh pair every day! Plus it saves a lot of time and money to not be cleaning and enzyming, etc. (is enzyming a word?) There is usually a rebate on these, too. This is my third year with them, and I'm very happy! KM

Both of our kids wear the Focus Dailies disposables. They like 'em. nm

Never - not comfortable.

Focus on yourself and your kids
Do things you enjoy - find hobbies, read, exercise, whatever makes YOU happy. It takes time and there are also lots of support groups you could get involved in. You could even get a lot of help online. Give yourself time, nurture and heal yourself. You have been through a lot it sounds like and probably so have your kids. Jumping into another relationship because you are needy and lonely might not be the best thing.
Give what you are comfortable with...sm
and write a detailed letter telling how proud you are of him--there is your personalized gift. I understand your wanting to do anything to make him happy, but times are hard for a lot of people right now. Surely this young man and his family understand that, right? BTW, I also like the gas card and keychain ideas.
I lose focus after a few hours : (

The word comfortable comes to mind! nm

I definitely do focus on his talents and of course I don't use that word with him (sm)
But in his grade in his school, he is one of the few. He has started trying to play sports with the other kids at recess, etc and they yell things like "you s*ck" at him. I strongly focus on his talents of course...I am his mother...I am his biggest fan and supporter.
Crocs are the most comfortable shoes around, but
I got blisters when I wore mine outside without socks. It looks dorky, but if you happen to be diabetic make sure you wear socks with them.
SO very sad there is not a single person who you would feel comfortable
or that you would want to just drop in on you without prior notification. What a humdrum, unspontaneous, antisocialist, by-the-book etiquette approach.
You should deliver your baby where you're comfortable....sm
with the hospital. Remember your OB/GYN will be with you only to check in on you and do the delivery - otherwise you'll be dealing with the hospital and its nursing staff. Delivering babies is a huge money maker for hospitals and you have a choice of where to go. I'd schedule an appointment with the other hospitals to tour the L&D/post-delivery area. In the Atlanta area all of the hospitals are happy to do this because they want your business.
I'd also switch doctors if they weren't available. There's no excuse for them to be too cheap to hire an answering service, or provide patients with at least a cell phone # of someone to contact after hours.
As far as the nasty nurse goes, send a letter to administration about her. They need to know who the good and bad employees are. Each time I've been to a hospital I've sent these kinds of letters and a good administrative team will tell you that it's feedback like this that helps them identified people/areas to improve and to know what is truly going well from a patient perspective.
Good luck on your upcoming delivery!
Focus on getting healthy, not on losing weight
I don't know your height, but was 5Ǝ" and 175 when I started trying to get fit. I lost inches first before losing weight. It took 4-5 months to lose 25 lbs, going from a size 16 to 12. Once I got there, I was more fit than 93% of all women my age. I was doing mountain hikes that put my teenagers to shame.
A few years later, I had some GI problems and started losing inches and a bit of weight, but not much weight. I lost the muscle as I had already burned off the fat. I dropped only 5 lbs, but went from size 12 to a size 8. I was anorectic. I'm back up again. ugh.
Just wanted you to know that if you think about getting fit, you may be more successful than if your goal is to lose weight. A lot of people give up because they don't lose the weight they expect of themselves. Your body will tell you where you should be. If you lose too much weight, you'll stay sick. If you are fit and stay fit, you'll feel it in any muscle and bone of your body. Good luck! Sounds like your off to a good start.
Comfortable shoes! Bring a few different pairs :)
As far as clothing, anything goes!
anyway, they saved a life; that's what we'll focus on

Does anyone else notice when you work too many days in a row you lose your focus or something. nm

he is not a Minority; you don't use that word in front of him, right? Focus on his talents; tell

What the women wear or don't wear is not the
issue here. They can wear what they want. The issue is what is actually going on in the compound and the laws that are being broken.
Whatever you want to wear - sm
You are going to love the Lion King! When I went a couple years ago there were people in dresses and suits, but a lot of other people, including myself, in just a nicer outfit - slacks and a sweater. Some people were even in jeans.
I got some to wear in the car when
we went on vacation last summer. They were great. I could actually work and not hear anything else going on in the car. However, I never use them at home because they are SOO big. I have my favorite pair that I wear, but when they wear out, I guess I will be wearing my expensive BIG ones! They do work, though
what to wear?
Need a bit of help. I am a full-figured woman (26) and have been invited to a fancy, fancy wedding. What am I going to wear? I do not wear skirts or dresses. I have looked online for plus size fancy occasion pant sets but cannot find anything that looks good. They all look real cheap. For this affair the cost of an outfit will be no problem. I just need advise/help on finding something. Probably need size 26/28 as I would rather get bigger than smaller and then have it tailored.
There is no way I would wear the one ...sm
with the jewelry hanging from it. That irks me. I just want to grab the thing and jerk it off. LOL. The one with the crystals in the contact lense without the thing hanging I think is cool.
yes some did wear them
My mom used to tell me about it. I was not born then either. She actually had one. The underskirt is something like the slip they wear under a square dance dress, they are made of very stiff tulle/mesh.
Mom said they get that stiff because they would spray them with spray starch/sugar water and hang them to dry.
The most of the poodle skirts you will see now are made of felt. You can get a pattern for it in the Halloween catalog for the major pattern companies. Look on line for McCall or Simplicity.
You should wear them...
I'm sure she'd be glad you liked keeping her close at heart and also you probably look very beautiful in them and she would be glad you are enjoying these earthly things that she took the time to purchase. Just remember, life is too short, and the jokes about "giving me that jacket" were showing how much you loved her taste in apparel, so why not wear them and know that your sister would have thought you look great in them! JMO.
I would wear them - sm
When my mom died I took about 80% of her clothes. Right now I cannot fit into them but we were the same height, though she weighed about 10 pounds less. But I can easily wear all her shirts and dresses...once I lose some weight, put on 35 pounds after she died. It makes me feel good to have her stuff and some of the smaller tops I have given to my daughters who are thrilled to have a little bit of grandma with them.
That's why I don't wear them
Too expensive and too restrictive, but I'm small enough to get away with it.
Probably not Pentecostal either. We wear
pants lots of times (even to church). We don't have home church meetings either. We have church in the sanctuary like most other denominations. 
I normally wear two rings;
my wedding ring on my left hand and an opal on my right hand. For some reason, I always have to take my wedding ring off because it slows me down if I'm wearing it yet I keep my opal on because I feel it slows me down if it's off. ???? Strange I know.
I also wear Ace bands on my wrists. Have done this for a few years now because I don't want the big CT and it slows me down now if I don't have those on.
I don't wear mine either.
We've been married since 1998 and I wear my rings maybe once a week for only an hour or so at a time...I am so hard on jewelry I'm afraid I would either destroy them or lose them. Some of the things I do around here could get them crushed on my finger as well, so I even consider them a safety hazard! I only wear them when we go out. My husband never wears his either except when we go out. All of them are kept in my little jewelry box so we know where they are. It's never been an issue, but we're not that mainstream of a couple either!
None, never wear a bra, hate it. nm

Whatever it is you choose to wear...
just make sure it compliments the bridal party's ensemble.
It doesn't necessarily have to be a solid color, but if you choose a dress with floral patterns, make sure it doesn't clash too much with the MOB or the rest of the bridal party.
Go here (but in case it does not show) Smarter.com and search mother of the groom dress. It will give you several online stores. At least you can get an idea of what you might want.

My little princess would not wear
a collar! I was so worried that if she gets out she will not come back or be returned cause she wouldn't have a collar on with a tag. She just kept pawing at it and one day got her bottom jaw stuck trying to take it off. I gave up....
I'm glad I don't wear it all.
What would you wear to this occasion? (sm)
Mother and father-in-law's 50th anniversary part, at a country club, 7 p.m., not a dinner, just sort of a reception with cake and such, wine...how formal?
I just wear flats
I'm actually taller than my husband so I always wear flats. I think they're so much more comfortable for me anyway. Heels actually make the balls of my feet hurt.
It seems that is how they like to wear their hair...
I don't think there is anything specific behind it. Maybe they believe it conservative? 
Use it up, Wear it out, Make it do, or Do without!

Maybe because no one has said to them they SHOULDN'T wear it...
nothing uglier than muffin top under too tight shirts, fat thighs in too tight jeans, sucking down an soda and eating a burger. Some people need to look in a mirror, or better yet, shop at a real department store, spend some money on good quality clothing, stop trying to dress like a teenager, and bring along a friend who will tell you how you REALLY look in the clothes you try on.
Anyone ever buy swim wear online?
I'm having a heck of a time finding a bathing suit anywhere locally (Wisconsin). The only place I see them are online, and I'm a bit hesitant about purchasing because it's a hassle returning, etc. Any suggestions? Goin' on a cruise in December. Thanks for your suggestions.
No, But I Only Wear an Engagement Ring....
It's not the biggest diamond in the world so it doesn't bother me. The whole "bare wrists" is another story, however.
I wear my rings all the time
I don't think I can get them off if I wanted to. LOL. My husband only wears his ring on special occasions. He can't wear any jewerly. His fingers swell up. He also can't wear necklaces or watches. It used to bother me, but as long as he wears it when we go out, I'm fine with it.
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!
Do your dogs wear clothes?
little doggie sweaters or hats or boots?
mine don't. I had a dog once that I tried to put a sweater on but I lost.
My cats wear tutus. :)
he, he
I think it is perfectly fine, as you have to wear it, not him!
I did not pick out the exact ring, but definitely discussed the cut and style I wanted. My feeling is if a man truly cares about the woman he would want to get her the ring SHE wants, not the one he can afford or the one he picks out. I'd be more worried about that to be honest. JMO
Either 1 or 2 - whichever I could possibly wear somewhere else. nm

La Venta Inn wedding - what to wear???
I've been invited to a wedding in CA at the LA Venta Inn the weekend of Thanksgiving. I would like some input on what to wear. Looks like a pretty nice place and I know they are trying for a sunset wedding ceremony - like around 4:30 with the reception at the Inn afterwards. I know it gets cool in the evenings, but if anyone has any suggestions on what to wear - I would appreciate it. Sounds like a formal or semi-formal affair. Thanks.
I used to wear gas perms years ago (sm)
and if I am remembering correctly, it seems like I was told to periodically scrub the lenses with some baking soda to remove all the deposits (I have a lot of allergies, too, and they'd get covered in the gunk). Seemed to make them fit and feel better.
There are some good ones - wish they'd wear badges or something!
That reminds me of the situation my cousin ran into - she used to work for AOL customer service answering people's calls about problems with AOL. She was fired for averaging too much time helping the customers!!!
Really now. Do you think MT companies really care? I wear
xxxx
Same here..neither my husband nor I wear our bands.
they are just plain wide gold bands but he is prohibited from wearing his at work (this is 12-14 hr a day, so by bother putting them on just to sleep in?) because he could lose a finger, etc. on equipment. Mine also got tighter, etc and I previously worked in a physician office and had to wash my hands constantly and the soap, etc would get underneath and cause irritation. Like poster above, plan on keeping my husband after 29 years... with or without the bands on our fingers.
