Dinner music, Johnny Mathis, Rickie Lee Jones, Bonnie Raitt.
If you can get over the ick factor, Michael Jackson has great dance music too.

Rolling stones - Mick Jagger claimed
he would rather be dead than be up on stage when he got "old". Then again, that was when "don't trust anybody over 30 was big - we are all in our late 40's and early 60' now.
Sheila has it right and in addition...sm
You can encourage her to look at her bills and see what she can cut back on. For instance if she pays her own rent then she can do things like be sure to cut off lights, have the A/C set at 78 instead of colder, consolidate trips in the car to save on gas to help free up money for other things.
We give the kids a bonus in our household. For each month the utilities bill come in under the budget amount they get to have 1/2 the savings for entertainment. It sure helps give them an incentive to cut off lights when not in rooms, not stay in the shower until every drop of hot water is drained, etc.
With the increasing cost of gas when we leave home we try to consolidate errands as much as possible. Now instead of going say to Target for odds and ends and then Publix for groceries we go to the Super Wal-Mart where we can get everything at one stop. These little things add up and I'm finding myself now going about 2 days further between fill-ups than I used to.
I understand...I lost my mom in 1999
She did have a traditional burial, but it was in a tiny family cemetery that we had to drive almost an hour out into the country to get to. The last couple of roads weren't even paved. It was so far away from "civilization" that during the graveside ceremony I heard a rooster crowing and that made me realize how quiet it was - no cars, no traffic, no radios, no noise....just peace. Since it is a very old cemetery, there were lots of mature trees and shrubs with flowers, and it was very well kept. Although I haven't been back there since my mother died (I live 500 miles from there), it gives me a peaceful feeling to think about that beautiful, tranquil place.
So I can certainly understand your desire to have such a place when you think of your mother. There are a lot of wonderful ideas here. I hope one (or more) works for you.
It's not just about rolling pin
It's more about asking me first. What If I loan out his PS3 or baseball kit without asking him? Oh come on ... you can't imagine the fuss he is going to create over it.
Furthermore, If it was something easy to clean, and such, I'd be more prone to loan it out. I haven't priced rolling pins in a while, but I know that it seemed steep when I bought it! (I kind of did my own hope chest. I had dishes, glassware, flatware, linens, pans and such before I moved out! I started buying in my teens.)
Keep the ball rolling...
Keep the Ball rolling-how about
favorite all time TV show. So many to choose from-Friends, Hell's Kitchen (love Chef Ramsey), 90210, CSI, Cold Case, again, just to name a few!
Oh yes, they should have given her album too
because she is just such an excellent role model. Not. My thoughts were oh great now she can afford even more heroin and crack. LOL. Unbelievable :(
i can not imagine a therpist rolling their eyes
that just sounds so unprofessional to me. I would recommend checking out other therapists. It took a little time to find the right one for me, but it was worth the work becuase I feel she has definitely helped me. Good luck to you.
I thought she should have one album also!
I am hoping she takes this as a sign to get her life straight. She is very talented and still very young so has a good chance!
Prince....
I guess he'll never age, huh? He was very entertaining! Loved the Super Bowl. How about the bit behind the curtain with the shadow of that guitar (his silhouette was something else)? 
I have my prince too...
so yes, there are good, kind, decent, loving and respectful men out there. No one deserves to settle for anything less...and no one deserves to be used for their money or just to provide a lifestyle, that's just wrong.
Have you even heard the album?? It's phenomenal! Like nothing else out there currently. sm
Besides, the Grammies aren't awards for morals, they are awards for music, and her music IS something unique and special.
No way is there a prince charming sm
when you eventually ditch this guy and get your kids raised, you will see how useless and inconsequential men are to us. I have been happily unpartnered for the last 20 years. Best time of my life. There is no prince charming. It is a myth. American men are the worst.
I DO NOT believe in a prince charming at all but, I do believe sm
there are good men left out there. I think they are fewer and far between, but they are there. I also think that couples tend to give up on marriages a lot quicker than they used to (but this is just an opinion). I have been married for almost 20 years. He has his faults. I have mine. However, we work together to accomplish things. We are good friends as well as being husband and wife. We neither one started out being great parents, but we learned together. We learned how to work through our arguments and compromise. It takes time and committment to make things work. In saying that though, I do also believe that if the time ever came, I would know when it is time to call it quits. Just remember to try first. If you try and then it does not work and you know you gave your best effort, then it is time to cut your losses and look for greener pastures. I wish you the best.
There is no Prince Charming BUT
There are a lot of decent guys out there who have a good heart but also have the normal flaws and faults as we all do, male or female. I went into marriage (at age 26, no less) expecting to live "happily ever after" and boy was I disillusioned. The first year of our marriage I can't tell you how many nights we literally argued until 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning. Each of us was determined to change the other. Well, guess what. Neither of us succeeded.
27 years later, we have been happily married for....oh....maybe eight years or so, total. Fortunately about six of those have been the last six - in a row.
All I can say to anyone who is considering marriage or who is unhappy in their marriage (for reasons besides abuse or alcoholism/drug abuse on the part of their partner) is get counseling - BEFORE you marry if possible, and certainly after you are married if you have problems you are not able to work out yourself.
Very interesting statistic - I live in a state that REQUIRES premarital counseling, and the latest study shows that one out of five couples decide NOT to get married after going through counseling. ONE out of FIVE!!
Marriage is hard work but it can be very rewarding. There are no easy answers. And there is NO Prince Charming. There are just human beings doing the best they can (hopefully).
There are Prince Charmings out there
You just would not believe. I think a lot of women/girls have these lists of what they expect, good looks, tall, handsome, etc., etc. I myself have heard women read off their lists. I know you don’t have to settle, not saying that but am so glad my husband did not fit the above requirements because he is truly 1 in a million. Just gotta look at the entire package. Oh, and what he makes is really the big $$$ but love him for him, nothing else.
I have my prince charming.
We have been together for 8 years, lived together 8 years, and everything has always been great. Of course, we occasionally have the normal arguments and bickering that almost all couples have, but we always work through those, and we are both extremely happy. We treat each other with respect and always go out and have fun during his days off (he works out of the house in a hospital as a nurse, and I work from home as an MT). He always brings me coffee in the morning, and sometimes comes home during his dinner break at work just to see me for a few minutes. I feel extremely lucky to have him, and I know that he feels the same way. So, there are prince charmings out there.
Baking Stones?
Somebody gave me a brand new baking stone from Pampered Chef. I know people love them but I have never been able to figure out what you do with them except for cooking a frozen pizza... maybe...?
Baking stones
I LOVE my baking stones and use them all the time. The best thing to cook on them at first is something really greasy, like using crescent roll dough and make something with them. They are a greasy dough, so they help season the stone. I have a recipe for veggie pizza that uses the roll mix. The more seasoned your stone is, the better your food turns out. I make pizza, cookies, french fries. ANything that can be baked on a cookie sheet (within reason) can be baked on a stone. It makes killer calzone and pasties. Experiment and have fun with your new stone.
Had mine out too. No stones...
but only an 8% ejection fraction. I too was told I could eat what I wanted afterwards but I really can't. Some things still upset my stomach like fried foods, but it doesn't really matter though since I rarely eat junk or fat or meat, love those good old veggies, fruits and whole grains. My procedure was very simple too; I took a week off of work( I was a grocery checker at the time and couldn't lift anything), never took a pain pill, felt better pretty much immediately.
Empty photo album and a journal.
Have you heard her first album titled Frank?
Great stuff! Especially considering her age! She'll get through this rough patch and hopefully make great music years to come!
Phil Spector did an album many moons ago with SM
the Ronettes, Shirelles and others, in that great Phil Spector way, which is my favorite. All good songs, Frosty the Snowman, Winter Wonderland. Makes me feel happy.
Yes, I know Phil is nuts, but the album (cd) is great.
Yes! Their Silent Night is my favorite on that album...sm
goosebumps for me each time I hear it, as well!!!

I know there a true prince charming out there for me and sm
my 3 kids. I just know it. My husband was not brought up right, so therefore he does not know how to treat women, or anyone for that matter. I didn't know ANY of this until we had already married. Honestly.
So now, 10 years later, it's getting worse between us every year, but I think of all I have with him, the kids, our family, and right now it just would not be easy to just leave. Like I said, I don't have much as far as income when it comes to us.
Anyway, I'm glad I have ya'll.
Oceans.... Stones or Beatles.

Poems or Sayings on Grave Stones
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my mother 16 years ago when I was only 19, and it was the hardest thing I have ever been through in life. This web site has many varieties:

Good luck with finding what you are looking for and always try to focus on remembering the good times you had with your mother.
