I wouldn't tell people at a busstop these things, either! nm

Nah, I wouldn't. I notice those things too but...(sm)
I always just let it go.
I wouldn't bother with another divorce if things go bad
Sounds like you're just going to marry him again, so deal with it!  I can relate to those love-hate relationships. In my case, it was a battle of wills, we both wanted to be in charge. Loved each other up until the day he died, but we both were pretty bull-headed.

Not true. Things are MUCH worse today
we didn't have nearly as many shootings and crazy things going on 20 years ago and it's not because we didn't have access to the media/cable TV stations etc, back then, it just wasn't happening like it is today. I don't know if it's the kids so much; I just think the world itself is extremely screwed up and too many things making people crazy. Couple that with society's obsession with wealth, status, looks, racism, etc., many people having no morals or faith, and it is makes for a very scary situation. Myself and many people I know (and I'm sure many I don't know) are deciding not to even bring children into this unpredictable and scary world. Can't even imagine another 20 years. It is very sad.
That is so very true! Can't befriend people where
husband works. I tried that one and they just want to "get to be friends with the Pastor," or "she's her friend and not mine gossip etc." For a while I would not tell anyone I was a pastor's wife because once that came into the conversation it was like I had some disease. Like I was either a nun or I was always praying or whatever. Believe you me it is far from that. We are more than normal, eat pizza while watching CSI, etc. Plus, my dear friend who lives where I just moved back to and is a teacher at the school we just went back to used to be a Pastor's wife, but she has her own problems (lots of kids and grand kids) so she understands how it is but I remind her too much of the old days and she stresses.
So, thanks for listening here. My husband listens to me and the other pastor's wives who are my friends who work with my husband, well we keep things light because they have their own problems. LOL. I want to quit this job of preacher's wife thing, but since I love the man behind the cloth and my family, well, not an option.
Absolutely true; that's why I would think most people prefer girls.

True. And why dont people going on Survivor learn

some people just like to stir things up even more--sm
than they already are. This is one of the sickest suggestions yet, or so far, that I have heard of concerning this already sordid story. The only one that is going to suffer is the poor baby girl, because she will have to grow up knowing that these sick minded people were saying these things about her mother! vicious, gossip mongers! The woman was no saint, but neither was Marilyn Monroe or Madonna, for that matter. No one would even care, if she had not been a public figure.
You should never judge people like you just did and say things sm
spiteful like that. Would you say these things to her or to someone like that face to face? Shame on you for being rude like that. It's so easy to beat on people when they are down. Calling someone's post the most ignorant post you've ever read and calling her selfish was very mean spirited.
He will run out of people, places and things. nm

And your post is exactly how people see things differently,
for example you think Kelly and Carrie the best- well I for 1 do not care for their music, would have never voted for them and absolutely loved hearing Fantasia- so you see different minds play into who the final contestants are. Simple.
That's why people go to yard sales - to look for things
that people don't know the value of and are selling cheaply.
Things not to say to people!! Ultrasound tech said (sm)
After doing my ultrasound for an ovarian cyst she says as I am getting up, "are you still having your cycles?" Thanks. I'm 40.
You know how they say dogs sometimes can sense things about people?
We had that AT&T U-verse stuff installed in October and three installers came to the house. Not a single problem with the dogs. (We still had LouLou at the time.) They sniffed the installers and then let them go on about their business. The one installer was at our house for 12 hours.
On Saturday, two AT&T techs came over to fix the computer. Again, not a single problem with Duke. He sniffed them out and didn't bother them for the rest of the time.
On Sunday, the AT&T tech who came over called to say he was on his way. He said he was somewhat spooked by dogs and he just wanted to make sure we had a friendly one. I assured him Duke wouldn't bother him.
Duke didn't care for that man in the slightest. He growled at him and the hair stood up on his back. Every time the man came in the room, Duke reacted the same way and would back away from him.
I wonder what it was about him that Duke didn't like?
You sound like a grinch to me, cuz there are people going thru these things right now.
Just changed the station.
Sometimes people don't realize how important the little things are...
Until they go through a loss themselves. Last year I lost my father and cherished every card I received. At the same time, I also felt terrible about the times I had neglected to send a card to someone else. I had thought at the time they were inadequate and probably unnoticed until I was going through it myself. Now I realize how important they are.
Don't be too hard on your friends and co-workers. One day they'll likely feel remorseful, as I do.
Case in point - I am talking about people thinking things out
I said some women went to a psychiatrist. He asked them to strip - which they did- he is a psychiatrist- he does not do physicals. They are on television telling how they pulled their blouses up when he asked them to. Now do you understand?
Morally-wrong things hurt other people. Loving

I've heard good things and about things about taking prednisone. My mom was on it for SM
for awhile and it made her look so swollen. I sympathize with you.
you can give the people the facts, but the decision making process should be left to the people
This is what our country is founded on FREEDOM OF CHOICE! I'm laughing already; you are just as mortal as the rest of us, and don' even attempt to that you've never done anything in your lifetime that was unsafe or unhealthy. NOT gonna buy it.
it is wonderful to see how many people have such strong opinions about people in debt.
I thought that the purpose of this board was to be able to post without being judged unfairly or have somebody tell you how wonderful their personal life is, and therefore you are causing their life to be less wonderful with your irresponsibility. Well, the saying "walk a mile in my shoes" is a good one in this case. Since you have no personal information about the person you are lambasting because they are looking for information on their debt, you can feel superior. Had you had personal information about them, you might act in a more human manner. Consider fighting cancer for 4 years, working and being debilitated while you do, suffering the effects of chemo, going into debt to maintain your home for your children and looking for a way out of debt SHOULD YOU EVEN LIVE THROUGH THIS!! Thank you for the kind comments. To the judgmental people I say please take a step back before you judge. You do not know who you are talking to and if you knew the personal information maybe your comments would be kinder.
I get frustrated by the double standard they use when judging people. They let certain people go sa
What do you think about the voting process?
People who go around calling other people "low class"
have their own issues in life. Ignore them. Nothing like a misplaced superiority complex to make a person feel good about themselves. Like they've never done anything gauche or made a faux pas. It must be nice for them to be so perfect and live in a glass house.
For that matter, you probably saved your piggy's life by popping that mondo zit! It could have gotten infected or something.... (yes, I have a zit popping fixation myself, but you were really descriptive on that pig zit. gag LOL)
Man, you would have appreciated the time one of my relative's popped a HUGE cyst on her face. I was standing right next to her at the time and leaned back because I knew it was going to blow. It did! Big time! All over the wall, mirror and light fixture. I'm still disgusted by the thought of it 10 years later. LOL In a revering kind of way...
some people did, some people didn't. It's their choice.

LOL-I wouldn't think twice about getting the pup sm
When I lost my cocker 2 years I was looking around for another 2 weeks later. I couldn't stand the thought of not having my own dog. Sure, hubby has his Golden, but my faves are cockers and I absolutely fell in love with my new guy's face on the internet. We drove 2 days later about 40 miles and picked him up. I melted when I saw his little face cocking to the side when I spoke to him. Of course, I still miss my other dog and my new one looks just like her, only the personalities are SO different. And the Golden finally got his playmate. He's just like a pup again. When we first introduced the two, we did it real gradual and took our time with it. The new pup was VERY feisty and the Golden wasn't used to that with before. LOL-my other cocker was 14 when she died. She didn't play at all, only slept and ate. Big change for the Golden.
wouldn't do it...
I lived in a mobile home for 9 years before we moved up to a house. I would never go backwards. You're still going to end up paying more. Like others have said, they do depreciate, not appreciate. Lot rent goes up and up and up each year (at least for us it did, started at 125 and ended up at 269 in 9 years). They are definitely not built well, at least ours wasn't and we supposedly had a better made one. Good luck with your decision.
I wouldn't do it...
I wouldn't, either. I have a 4-year-old daughter who knows why I wear a bra and understands she will one day when she's a young woman. I'm sure the girls who do have bras so young are a little heavier, which brings on earlier development. I can understand that then. When we walk in a store, she loves to look at all the pretty pink pajamas and clothes, but she knows she can only look. I'll say maybe Santa will bring her something, but I won't allow her to beg me for something. My boys don't, either. My husband and I tell them before going to the store exactly what we are getting and that's it. I think 5 is too young for a bra. Same thing for pierced earrings, not until she's old enough to understand them and how to take care of them. This is a gimmie-gimmie world, but it's up to us parents.
Good luck!
I wouldn't...
No way would I invite myself and my family to stay at someone else's house. It'd be way uncomfortable and unpleasant, IMHO...if he insists, make him call and ask them.
I wouldn't eat it
Left over food should be refrigerated within 2 hours, otherwise bacteria and such can start growing and it is unsafe to eat
I would not appreciate it, but I wouldn't be mad about it.
My golden is on a strict diet of dry dog food only. Any sort of table food or "human" food is a no-no. She has allergies to some "people" food. That would be the only reason I would not appreciate anyone feeding her, but then again, I don't leave her outside very long. She is a family dog and a house dog.
Well, which one do you like better? I wouldn't put too much sm
emphasis in the relationship of the man who isn't as interested in you. If he's acting like that now it might be a sign that he's not ready, has ulterior motives, or just not that into you. Good luck!
I wouldn't do it
I'm pretty sure the hospital can't actually take anything from him. In his shoes and being elderly, before I did any of that stuff I would look into reverse mortgage. He could perhaps get enough to pay all of it or very close and then make payments on the remainder.
Thanks! That's why I wouldn't want
it to be a set date - just in case I didn't have the funds in there.
No, I wouldn't.
While you may know these boys like they were your own, what if they have 'friends' that show up with other ideas? Also, what about her reputation? I know times have 'changed' but having a reputation to be proud of as your daughter gets older is definitely something that has not changed. I wish you the best with this.
He probably wouldn't want you either.

In this day and age, I wouldn't do it.
Plus, it sounds like people will know since you know the bus driver. You just never know who will be lurking. I'm sorry, but I trust no one. It is worth it to pay a neighbor or someone else until the child is at least a teenager. Sorry, but my daughter is in 3rd grade, she'll be 9 in January, and I would not leave her here for an hour by herself especially if the bus driver knew it. JMO.
I wouldn't do it s/m
rather be safe than sorry. I have a third grader as well and there is no way I would let him stay home alone. He will be nine in March. I don't even leave him home alone to run to the store, which is 10 minutes away. We live in the country, but it wouldn't matter where I lived. Things happen so fast and you just never know. It isn't just about not trusting your child, but trusting others as well. What if a solicter was walking up to the house at the same time as your child? What if someone was breaking into your house as your child walked through the door (this actually happened to my neighbors! The boy was 14 and scared out of his mind. He walked into the house and ran out when he realized what was happening.)
I also have a 19, 17, almost 9 and 7 year old. I think my oldest was around 13 when I first let him stay home alone, but it was for short periods of time and we went over so many things. What to do in case of a fire, answering the door and phone, etc.
I wouldn't tell them anything.
I don't think your kids will say, "Thanks, mom! That's inspiring and enlightening. I will definitely not make the same mistakes that you made."
It's more likely that they'll someday say, "You did it, and everything turned out just fine. So why can't I?"
Well, he sure wouldn't....sm
....sleep in my bed or do his laundry with mine! :D :D
I wouldn't know....sm
I can't afford a cleaning lady on MT pay. You must have a better paying job than I do.
I would be annoyed too if my stuff got broke.
I wouldn't do it.
Something's up with this guy and you don't know what it is. This kind of thing always comes back to bite you in the butt. I think it's an odd request and he's hiding something.
I wouldn't send it and this is why . . .
People like this get off on how they are hurting people. She can see in your email that you are hurting, and although it is a valiant and kind effort on your part, she will see it as a sign of weakness and groveling, which is what would delight her.
I'm so sorry you're put in this situation. You sound like a kind, gentle person and you certainly don't deserve the way she treats you.
The only thing I can suggest is to be around her as little as possible (family gatherings, traditions, etc.) and always choose to be in another room, on the opposite end of the dinner table, etc., as physically far away from her as possible.
Continue to be pleasant, don't stoop to her level, and you don't owe her an apology for anything.
She's the one with the problem, not you.
I wouldn't worry too much!
My husband and I, when we first got married, would go to Bath and Body Works and pick out scents that we both liked. It was something that we both enjoyed. I wouldn't put too much into it. Offer to rub some lotion on his back after his bath or hop in the tub with him!
I wouldn't trim it beforehand either.
 But add some pineapple slices with toothpicks and maraschino cherries to that brown sugar and cloves and you've got yourself one goodtastin' ham...
I wouldn't register.
home. Housewarming is more like a gathering. Some people may bring something and some might not. I did a combo housewarming/holiday time (beginning of December) open house. Most brought bottle of wine, holiday decoration, etc. Some did not bring anything at all. It sure was fun though. Have a great time.
Wouldn't bother me at all.
In fact, I know a single guy who will not date women with children. Don't blame him.
I do have a conscience and wouldn't
kill another person unless I had to such as defend myself, my family, etc. However, I would have an abortion in a heartbeat. It's nothing but a medical procedure to me.
I like how you say "even though you don't believe in god you must have a conscience." LMAO, like maybe I don't because I don't believe in god.
My beliefs (actually lack there are, lol) are certainly threatened by yours. You want to take away my right to have an abortion because of your belief in god. Obviously, I don't care what your god thinks since I don't believe in it.
I just don't understand why you care so much what other people do, think, and believe. I don't get it. I don't care what you think, believe in, or do as long as it doesn't threaten what I want to do. Why not just let other people be and worry about yourself? Why is that so hard for some people?
Also, please save your mercy comment for someone who wants or asks for it because I certainly don't. I'm quite fine the way I am and don't need anyone or anything to valid me or my life.
so ya think if ABC fired her, they wouldn't tell the
  
Well if everyone did it, then it wouldn't be a hoax, right?
Can't blame someone for trying :)
I wouldn't be comfy without.
Need my feeling of security. Even under pajamas.
