Spew factor!
Okay - Just took a swig of water when I read this and back up the nose it goes! That's exactly what my husband said.

I think weight is a big factor, too.

My daughter didn't start until age 13 and she is very, very thin.

That was the deciding factor--sm
in my separating last year. I saw a Dr. Phil promo where he said the only thing worse than staying married and unhappy for 20 years was staying married and unhappy for 20 years 1 day!!

This has been the best year of my life. I was married for 26 years and lived w/o love, joy, or any communication other than how stupid, fat, lazy I was. Knew it was untrue, but took an ad on TV to really KNOW it. Good luck.

OK, I'll try to explain the ick-factor...
He's creepy...always has nude women on his show, degrades females in general, and just plain perverted. Makes my skin crawl, seriously. He makes Howard K look like an angel, IMHO...that to me is icky...

Thanks - that is a major factor in my decision (sm)
My children. I feel like I am choosing between my happiness and theirs and of course they should win. They are happy now, but if they had to have visitation with their dad - who is definitely a control freak - I worry about their happiness. But is it better for them to visit him than to live with him. And wouldn't I be showing them that you don't have to live like that by leaving??? it's so hard!

don't let money be the main factor
If you think you will like the job and the people you will be working with, take it and don't worry about the money, and if you're not ready to move, hold off for something else.

Spew factor - had coke come out my nose on that one!!
too funny

I think a clean maker can be the biggest factor sm
I have had a Bunn, Mr. Coffee, GE, etc, and the main thing in how my coffee tastes is how clean the maker itself is. I have learned the hard way that it must be cleaned with vinegar or a coffee maker cleaner once a month or the coffee maker will be slow to brew and not have a good taste. Also making sure to check the manual for how much coffee to use - mine states no more than 3/4 Tbsp per 6-ounce cup of coffee even though the coffee itself says 1 Tbsp per serving.
