I have been Freecycling for about a year. It can be fun. Just be prepared to work kind of fast if you have something someone wants (and you want to get rid of). Someone requested a mini trampoline, which I offered to her, and she said she had 8 offers within an hour. Believe me, you will have no trouble getting rid of your unwanteds. As for those 10 Magic Fingers...

I have an odd request.

Request for Advice
Hi,
First time here. I was reading through your posts and thought I could get some none biased advice on my current situation.
I am married for almost three years now, we dated for 4 years prior to our marriage, 27 years old and no children.
Here is my little excerpt on my situation:
During the end of our first year of marriage my husband’s drinking began to be an issue in our marriage, and has progressively gotten worse. At the worst point he would get drunk and pass out at his friends house, received a DUI, he would lie about his drinking, spent two nights in jail, passed out on the floor of the house and in the bathroom, we would fight constantly and of course his addiction cost a small fortune (not including the DUI fees). We went to counseling for about six months straight and all the while he was resistant. I left for a week in October, and came back under the impression that he was going to stop drinking (at least work on it). Things, supposedly, were getting better. He has gotten “drunk” twice, started going to AA meetings, reading the AA book and is thinking about getting a mentor to help him through this process. Well tonight he told me that since I came back (in October as stated above) he has been stopping at the liquor store every day after work and any chance he could on the weekend.
My first reaction (as I have had in the past) is I have to leave, and for much longer then a week. My dilemma is that he will be alone and depressed, and I will be the same. I just started at a great firm with many people who have their lives “together”, and may not understand if this results in a divorce. I am 27 and could be divorced by the age of 28, and who would be interested. I am religious, and the terms of divorce is pretty much accepted for adultery. He mentioned that the reason that he told me that he has been lying to me is because he is taking the first step which is being honest, but he had just drank so he was loaded.
Sorry for the length and I am sorry if anything I have written above is offensive to anyone, that was not my intension I just thought I would express my feeling on the matter, and I am also a little confused right now.
Thank you and any advice would be appreciated.
You could just request a diamond solitaire
That's how my husband and I did it. We picked out a nice diamond together, but if your man wants to surprise you you could just tell him what kind of cut you want etc., and he could pick it up himself.
Is that what the prayer request board is for?

It was a prayer request; put it on PR board, please. NM

She can request emergency leave.
My husband is active duty Air Force, so I know a little bit about the military. As far as I know, she can request emergency leave because of the situation with her infant. Also, I do not think they just give military mom's a year off because they had a baby. I know several women that are active duty military that have had children, and they are given the same amount of maternity leave as a civilian.
We have a Prayer Request board - it belonged there. NM

they always request more to cover what others don't send - plus what their budget won't buy -

A child's prayer request from our kid's choir last night....sm
Matthew, age 6, during our children's choir prayer time last night asked for us to pray for his dad, who was just arrested. When I told him that hopefully his dad would get out of jail soon as I'm sure he missed him, his response was "I don't think so. My dad goes to jail a lot." He wasn't sad when he said this - just said it matter-of-factly. All I could do was tell him that he's not the only child who has a parent in jail and that we'd pray for both of them and his mom.
that doesn't sound normal to me at all. i would request transfer to another facility that has be
i got CT scans in the ER. why the need to wait? assuming they had to wait on orders. does he have a PCP? i'd call the PCP if so and explain the situation and what has transpired and see what he recommends, i.e. jump someones tail or transfer. their should be neurologist on call for this reason. they should make rounds daily whether it is the weekend or not. i'd definitely be there waiting on that neurology consult and fill his ear full and find out what his future plans are if you don't transfer to another facility.
call back and request an appt sooner. Since you are paying for it, they should have no problem

I specifically request the same info as you did, but I rarely (and I mean rarely) SM
get a response as to when the item will be shipped. I've probably done about 100 transactions and only once did I not receive the item and had to dispute it.
I'd just keep trying and be very persistent. Maybe you will get a response
Since it was a prayer request it probably should have been on prayer board. nm
