it did not take me a fraction of a second to figure out who * he * was! C'mon now.
How do you like to close your letters?
I use Cordially a lot. I have a new job where I'm writing to business people a lot and don't want to use Cordially all the time, nor do I want to copy what they use.
I've received Best Wishes the most. I guess there are the old standbys, like Sincerely or Sincerely yours (capital Y in yours) but those feel weird.
Can Thanks count?
Closing letters
How about "Kindest" or "Kindest Regards,"?
my daughter got these letters from her orthodontist
still, to this very day, she is under their care and ALWAYS receives compliments, notes, and they are (the orthodontists) happily married.......yes I do believe the OP may be reading way far into this. Orthodontists (the male ones) are VERY nice/sweet because they have to deal with the same patient for years (in my daughter's case because her mouth used to be a disaster) and years.
Back off, chill out, and see the next time how you are treated.....right now, ya sound a little desperate to me...
Have a GREAT day!!! 
Of course, dog responds to sound of letters,cause&

answers to chain letters.
I don't like them but I get a chill reading the gloom and doom ones and start to wonder if the person who sent that really is a friend. I don't pass it to any friends. Here is a funny one you can send back though.
I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me your silly chain letters over the past years. Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy. Because of your concern...
I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains. I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans. I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the rat feces and urine.
I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer. I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could get pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.
I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a wet dog on a hot day.
I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.
I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually AL Qaida in disguise.
I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American troops.
I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a stupid number for which I will get the phone bill from hades with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.
I no longer eat prepackaged foods because the hormones they contain will turn me gay. I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.
I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive my free replacement pair from Nike.
I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.
I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me.
I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time).
I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $245,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.
Yes, I want to thank all of you soooooooo much for looking out for me! I will now return the favor. If you DON'T send this e-mail to at least 1200 people inthe next 60 seconds, a large bird with diarrhea will crap on your head at 5:00 pm tomorrow afternoon. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend . . ..
Life is good...
Worn off letters do not bother me at all, I

My son could pick out all letters at 18 months old...
We made it a game. Everywhere we went, we would point out letters for him to name- on signs, cereal boxes, menus, etc. Now, we have him tell us what the letters say and read small words. He can read many words and he is not 3 yet. We did NOT teach the alphabet song until after he knew each letter because I think that it is confusing. LMNOP all run together and as a kid, I thought that it was one word. At any rate, maybe try some kind of incentive, like carrying stickers or jellybeans or something in your purse and point out letters in the grocery store or wherever. If she gets them right, give her a treat. We also play with flash cards and for each correct answer, Clayton gets to keep the card. When he has all the cards, he wins. Just some things that have worked for me.
Generally never, but I am tiny -- sm
AA and A - only sag a little on the A side. Much more comfortable without, but do wear one when necessary (i.e. white shirt, dress, etc.)
I did think of Tiny Tim, but I thought it
was adorable too. I got to hear Jason's performance on the radio this morning, and I loved hearing him in my car. It was a great song for him. Just loved it.
I didn't particularly like David Cook's song, but I thought he performed it well.
I agree that Kristy gave her best performance, but why don't I care to hear her? I switched over to The Biggest Loser and have yet to watch the David A. I thought Syesha was good. I can't remember what Brooke did, but I wasn't overly impressed. Didn't hate it either. I was surprised that the tattoed girl from Ireland fell apart for a second when she caught the look on Simon's face. I didn't love the song, but I still think she's great.
Have you seen this tiny little girl?

i'm proud of my worn-off letters -- confuses intruders
i've purchased many keyboards in my day (as have we all), and i just love it when folks come over and see my E, S, T and R are missing, if not more. when you get a new keyboard and read the box, believe it or not, they are listed as having a life-expectancy of 10 million Keystrokes -- doesn't take us long to burn thru that! right now, i've been using this microsoft ergonomic and all letters still in place (bummer). however, microsoft had some nerve moving the keys all around like they did --- just crazy to my fingers....
Not only have some of the letters worn off, but I have made dents into the keys. sm
My husband saw my keyboard one time and couldn't use it because he didn't know the location of the missing letters.
I like mine worn off so nobody else can use it! QWYUPKZX are the only letters left! nm
There is a tiny little link to click -
click where it says wooly thyme.
It's there, it's just small. Sorry.
I can hear the tiny pop sound, but
DH cannot.
I do remember hearing just a tiny bit about
Amelia Island. What makes it an old pirate town? Would LOVE to hear all about it. I'm going to put that on my list to look at visiting. You know, as far as entertainment goes - I don't care to go someplace else hundreds of miles from my home to do something that I could do in my home state so "local" things to do/places to eat are always high on my list!
This is the unknown in me coming out but is it a "true" island - do you have to take a ferry out or do you fly??
maybe your tiny tower fan inside blew.....
there are vents on the back of the tower - that periodically need brushing out, cleaning out - canned air works well in this/these areas....
there is a tiny fan inside every tower.....maybe it blew? but yes - they need AIR surrounding them - the backs of towers should not be completely blocked....
HTH (hope that helps) 
Agree. 1 of the masses. A tiny cog in a machine. I

Did mine Monday, tiny refund $58 - sm
and "accepted" by the IRS on Monday night, so all done. Just need to print out the state, sign and mail off with our payment to them by May 1. Will probably do that over the weekend then will be all done.
I had a similar reaction from a tiny dose of nortriptyline - sm
the doc had prescribed to try to control my chronic migraines. I took like less than half of one pill, about 1/4 the dose the doc intended me to taper up to. I took it a 10:30 pm on a Friday night. The next morning I didn't wake up 'til almost noon, and was totally, UTTERLY stoned. Coffee didn't help. No-doz didn't help. Finally felt sober enough to drive, and headed off for Lake Tahoe that afternoon (the original plan had been to go at about 9 AM), only to realize that I was still a bit on the stoned side, and didn't remember most of the 150-mile drive there! Aaaagggh! Went to bed early that night (WITHOUT the nortriptyline this time) and finally felt halfway normal by the next day.
Man - if I had to be on that stuff, I'd have lost my job for sure. Not only would I have not been able to DO my job (was an in-house MT at the time), but I most likely wouldn't have even remembered I HAD a job to go to!
The doc said I would have eventually 'gotten used to it' and not had such a drowsy reaction, but couldn't give me a time frame for that happening. I just didn't have the time to live that way, so told her it wasn't an option.
Needless to say, I threw away the rest of the contents of that bottle. Thank goodness Imitrex was on the market in tablet form about a year later. THAT worked like a charm on the migraines, and totally changed my life.
Anyone ever get any of those tiny little red spots on face that look like little blood vessel bursts
but they are flat. What can you do about that.
If they're those teeny tiny ants, those are the sugar eaters. Got anything

Chili peppers and little tiny plastic pinball toys.

Nah, and I NEVER pass on those round robin letters for good luck, money, love, etc. if passed on in

My hair stylist last October got a tiny darling baby Daschund and SM
a huge hawk was constantly circling around every time she let him out in the yard. Her neighbor was concerned as well. Little Rusty is somewhat bigger now and nothing happened, but I know for sure that the bird had his eye on a very nice dinner. Like you said, they have to eat, but nature can be cruel sometimes.
Full of holes? Incomplete? Needs more detail? Cats can squeeze thru tiny spaces. nm

tears
I actually got tears in my eyes reading this... your husband must be very special.. I am very happy for you. . I like the idea of using the bricks in the fireplace..
Tears!
It's been a while since I've smiled so big and cried tears at the same time! As I watched your video, I could picture my grandma whom I miss dearly!! THANK YOU!!!
I have tears in my eyes. sm
I posted below sparklers on the 4th but your post brought back wonderful memories of the same thing. So many of the places that my mom and I shopped at are now gone. My fav was Kresgies (sp) which had a lunch counter as well as what was probably mostly junk. I always had a grilled cheese. Now a park stands there and my mom would take my daughter and niece there for picnics. I lost my mother also....oh just one more day.
I was brought to tears
by his singing but especially by his story.
Yes...bored to tears!!!

I am so fustrated I am in tears...sm
Ok here goes...My husband has hunting beagles. He has about 5 of them. I love dogs and I love beagles. Well he drives an 18-wheeler and is gone a majority of the time. I take care of the dogs daily, i.e. feed them, clean their kennels, and put fresh water. It is a chore, but I love the dogs so I do it. It is for my husband anyway, and we are supposed to help each other. When he is home it is his chore. Well he has a buddy down the road who lives about 10 minutes away. They take their beagles out together and let them run rabbits. Well his buddy is bad about leaving his beagles over here and not coming to get them in a timely manner, and I have to take care of 5 more dogs. Food isn't cheap either. Well you have to make him come get them. A couple of weeks ago his buddy went on a hunting trip in Tennessee and needed someone to care for his beagles. Well I didn't mind taking care of them for a few days. I was fustrated to learn though he brought them and left them in the kennels and left no food for them. I had to feed these dogs of his out of our food and there was 5 of them. I mentioned to my husband that I thought that was rude. I was nice enough to care for his beagles while he went away. He should have brought food for them. I felt taken advantage of. Well he came over last weekend and I thought good he has come for his dogs. Well he leaves without them. I said oh here we go again. I had forgotten to mention anything to my husband because I got busy working among other things. Well today when I went to feed the beagles I got really fustrated because he STILL has not come and got his dogs. So got downright ticked and called my husband. I said you call your buddy and tell him I am not in the kennel business. He can come get his dogs. I said first of all he is back in town and has been a week. Why hasn't he come and got these dogs? I said you should have made him before now. I said I was not asked do you mind taking care of these dogs for weeks. I said you should not allow your friend to take advantage of my niceness. He said well I just figure that if you are taking care of our beagles then why can't you just feed and take care of his too. What difference does it make? You are already taking care of these so what is so hard about putting a little more food out. I said I will tell you. It is twice the dogs to feed. I said he did not bring any food. It is twice the sh** to clean out the kennels, which is done, by the way, by spraying it off the concrete floors with a hose with a spray nozel. I feel like I am being taken advantage of and I think my DH should stick up for me to his friend. 
tears on Xmas Eve!!
I just feel so bad for you in this situation. I love my two dogs so much that I don't know what I will do without them one day... But I agree with you in the sense that I don't want them suffering or in pain. If something happens to them and they go blind or something like that, that is one thing... but when a pet cannot function anymore and you are only keeping them around cause you don't want to deal with the loss that is entirely different. I feel for both you, your mom, and the dog and I'm sorry you are going through this. I do not think there are right or wrong answers, but just remind her All Dogs go to heaven!!!

tears in my ears.
is how the song goes.
It's one of my favorites.
Have you noticed how her mother never has tears?
She has pretended to cry, dabbing a tissue under her eyes but there are absolutely no tears. Her mother is just PO'd she isn't getting the baby's inheritance and that's the only thing she's upset about.
As I write this, tears are in my eyes
because my furkids also gift from hubby and I know, really know the love we give these little ones. She had been through so much. You gave her a good home and I am sure did everything to make her life comfortable. I have 2 boys from my gift and 1 is a purrer and the other 1 not but again know I along with others share your sorrow.
American Idol.. is anyone else in tears like me?
I swear.. some of these clips are getting to me, and Josh Groban and those little girls? I'm just a mess.
I guess it doesn't help that I'm sitting here transcribing an autopsy at the same time, which always gets to me anyway.
Husband in tears this morning
My daughter (not his own child and not raised by him) asked me for his email about a week ago and told me none of my business (just laughing as she told me this) when I asked why. This morning he reads from her "Thanks for being in my mothers life. I have never seen her happier. You are the best father ever and Happy Fathers Day. Love." He was so touched by this, tears rolling down his face for these thoughts. Happiness- priceless.
Hayseed, I have tears in my eyes because
I have read your post and this is the first time hearing this. I have had so many animals, loved animals, that have died and to think I would ever see them again is something that just warms my heart. Birds, dogs, cats and even a white mouse are ones I have lost. Thank you so much for this.
It brought tears to my eyes as well. You have
reason to be proud!!
Oh sweetie, I just have tears in my eyes for you - sm
What a horrible man and I can so relate to not wanting him to touch you.
BE SAFE. My biggest worry would be the guns and that's why I suggested you leave; I know it is important to try to keep your kids stable in school, but nutty control freaks do horrible, horrible things when they feel their power taken away.
Please keep us updated.
Thank you - your post moved me to tears - sm
Your description of walking around with a gaping wound in your chest and no one noticing - You may not believe this, but until I read this I had long since put away feelings I'd forgotten - I HAVE had an experience, and you reminded me. One of my babies died at one day old thirty-two years ago. You described what I remember feeling exactly. How could I have forgotten that? I'm sitting here with tears running down my face.
Your suggestion of a note to the families is a great one. I'm certainly going to do that. God bless you.
Cannot type with tears in my eyes
Am such a lover of fine music and thanks to both of you, this is what I am enjoying this morning. Why in the US are we only allowing a certain age to be on American Idol and not half the quality of these guys?
Wow, I got tears in my eyes imagining that (sm)
So glad you have been so blessed
That was awesome sodiepop! Last one brought tears
:)
that judge with his FAKE tears and emotionalisms
makes me want to vomit actually............he's probably the most BOGUS judge in Broward..........
I live in Broward.....
Your post brought tears to my eyes - (sm)
I was one of the ones praying for your kitty and told you that you would know when the time was right, and you did. I lost mine in Feb and I am still looking for her, sometimes I think I even see her. Don't even worry about picking up her stuff. You'll know when the time is right for that too. I still cry at the grocery store when I pass the cat food aisle or the evaporated milk which was her "special" treat. I feel sure she is sunning herself up in Heaven right now and she is at peace with no pain, just waiting for Mom to get there someday. I think time passes quickly up there too, so to her it will seem soon when you arrive. Bless you.
That letter brought tears to my eyes
and I miss her every day. I could've written your letter, especially the part about ditching her and going with friends. I could sure kick myself now for not spending more time with her. She was a beautiful lady and I miss her, especially at the holidays.
At Christmas 1993, my husband said Let's go see your folks. I said it's such a long trip, etc etc. Next year!
Well, 10 days later, mom was gone from pneumonia. Just like that she was gone and I was left with a big gaping hole in my heart and plenty of I wish and Why didn't I?
God Bless all of us orphans on the holidays.
I
I mean sorry for your loss, so recent. Having trouble seeing through my tears. nm
