boards, several, in the same room and of course they are going for the couches. They have killed my favorite fabric chair but can get another 1 really cheapo off Craigs List but the leather? The bad thing is when they are doing their thing apparently is at night when I am sound asleep. I will take the advice in mind though and get my water bottle ready and practice my loudest HEY!!

Scratch up at least half of what you owe - sm
(all of it if you can) go on a road trip to see him, 2-day drive or so if I read it correctly (or remember correctly), pay the ex off/get up to date on CS then stay a week or two, at least show your son that you want to see him and not just sitting back waiting for him to come to you when your ex decides it fits his schedule or is okay. Obviously find out if your ex has anything planned for the time you plan to go then just show up, I would not aprise anyone to your plans, just go. Even if he screws you over at least your son will see that you really, really wanted to see him and tried everything to accomplish it. This will make your ex look like a real schmuck if he does not let your son see you while you are visiting. Good luck.

I don't use Jiffy. I do mine from scratch. nm

scratch and sniff cat food labels...
so sick of Picky Pete! this kind?, this kind?, this kind? -- three a day is my limit of trying to guess his mood...

Hopefully you use an expander, and aren't typing it all from scratch? NM

Know how you feel, I scratch my back on doors or corners (sm)
rubbing up against them like an old cow on a tree or post. Maybe I ought to check into finding one of those too. Though my family enjoys laughing at my unusual gyrations.

Baking bread from scratch is hard work, sm
especially for people like us who abuse their hands working. Kneading bread is exhausting!

I have a bread machine and love it. It allows for both bread mixes and scratch ingredients. The bread tastes delicious, too.

I totally understand your point but people saying itch when they mean scratch
.

Bertoli's shrimp scampi is awesome. In the frozen food section. Don't cook from scratch! nm
