I so get that......*tears*.....I recently lost my dad, he was very_old but we were ThickAsThieves and for a long, long, long time, I'm talking decades and decades...how lucky was I?!?!?!!!  I say recently but it was nearly 3 years ago......I got to care for him during his illness and that was a blessing to me (10 years) along with outside help. 

I wish you and your daughter THE BEST - and I don't know where you live or your financial situation, but if I had the resources, I would find a field where you know it's grown and scatter his ashes, Colombia comes to mind or Kentucky *lol* read the news - hey the Everglades in Florida!!  *lol*

I, myself, want to be cremated and my ashes scattered over New Mexico, the Sangre DE Cristo Mountains near Santa Fe.  [Of course, my religious upbringing does not allow for this...but I'm not all that religious and certainly not in an organized fashion...it's between me and G_d, though one of my children is NOT happy about this *lol*] 

I meant *generally* speaking.  You seem to me to rather be the exception to the rule.  MOST folks (not you, evidently and this is a GOOD THING *S*) in the deep south (and I am not speaking of places such as south Florida) - are against abortion and pro-choice - not all of them but PLENTY of them. 

I did NOT mean to offend....please forgive me....

H went to a farm sale and they were practically giving away scrap iron.  He bought me an exercise bike for $2 and they threw in a bunch of it in with that exercise bike.  Someone came by and asked if they can have it for scrap and H gave it to them.  A person can find stuff on the side of the road like hub caps, car batteries, copper wire.  I saw a mattress laying out on the side to the road as well.    H has a lot of scrap in the backyard he needs to take down. 

Unfortunately, there are some that make this a dishonest business.  It has been rumored that the city has had missing sewer caps.  Someone took that down to the scrap yard.  Gosh, what people won't do. 

codependent on him.  Something to think about.  I've been married twice (once for 10 years and to my current husband for 4 years) and you cannot change people.  You have to work on things together and try to change things together.  I man will never read your mind and do what you want.  You have to be very blunt with the male species and tell them what you want and need, but be careful about being too needy as that could be a turn off.

You must love him for who he is.

Good luck!  I wish someone would have told me some of this stuff 15 years ago, but I'm in my mid 30s and still learning.

After learning this, my husband talked to the security office at his job and was advised that he should request our child be transferred to another team b/c it was considered a breach of ethics for my husband to fraternize with an ex-inmate. 

Why did your husband run to his job and tell?  Did he not want the ex-inmate working with the team or what?  What's done is done.  Sounds like you'd better switch leagues or build a bridge and get over it.  JMO.

I am not denying access to my house...my son is not banned from my house....I just do not see the need for anyone who is not living fulltime in a residence.....my house, your house, sister's house or whatever....People on here keep saying I'm yelling and screaming because I capitalized a couple of words.....

One in seven people believe it is acceptable in some circumstances for a man to hit his wife or girlfriend if she is dressed in “sexy or revealing clothes in public”, according to the findings of a survey released today.

A similar number believed that it was all right for a man to slap his wife or girlfriend if she is “nagging or constantly moaning at him”.

The findings of the poll, conducted for the Home Office, also disclosed about a quarter of people believe that wearing sexy or revealing clothing should lead to a woman being held partly responsible for being raped or sexually assaulted.

Although a majority of 1,065 people over 18 questioned last month believe that it is never acceptable to hit or slap a woman, the poll found that those aged 25-39 were more likely to consider that there were circumstances in which it was acceptable to hit or slap a woman.

Men and women over 65 and those in the lower social class groups D and E are more likely to believe that woman should be held partly responsible for being raped or sexually assaulted, Ipsos Mori telephone poll found.

Jacqui Smith, the Home Secretary, said: “Violence against women and girls is unacceptable in any form no matter what the circumstances are.”

Ms Smith said that more needed to be done to challenge attitudes that condoned violence against women and girls.

She was speaking as she launched a police lead review of whether new laws are needed to tackle serial domestic violence abuses and whether there is a link between the early sexualisation of young girls and violent abuse.

One idea being considered is to allow women to ask police if a new partner has a record of domestic violence. A pilot scheme that allows women to request information on whether a new partner has a history of child sex abuse is currently underway in four police force areas of England and Wales.

But MS Smith was confronted at a working breakfast at which she launched the campaign by a veteran domestic violence campaigner.

Sandra Horley, chief executive of Refuge, accused Ms Smith over breakfast at the Cinnamon Club in Westminster of using “gimmicks” and “spin”.

She said that government action so far had been “piecemeal” and condemned plans for a database of serial domestic abusers.

Ms Horley said: “We have had enough talking – we need action. As for the perpetrators’ register, it is a gimmick and doesn’t address the root problem.

“The majority of violent men don’t come to the attention of police and it won’t keep women safe.

“Police can’t be expected to monitor relationships and love lives of offenders.”

She went on: ”The Government is hoping to get away with useless initiatives like this register and it is hypocritical to sound tough and do little.”

She said that the cases of Sabina Akhtar and Katie Summers showed that not enough was being done.

Ms Smith tried to interrupt the tirade but was shouted down before Vera Baird, the solicitor general, stepped in to argue the Government’s case.

everyone with different opinions is allowed to post here and poster said they were making a contribution in the name of pro-peace....give that poster a break please....

skin tags off without local, as the injections caused just as much pain, if not more, than the quick snip.  These were small skin tags though and the scissors were super sharp surgical scissors, not like the kind found in a kitchen junk drawer ;-)

Depends on your pain threshold and how squeamish you are about things like these I guess.  Couldn't hurt to numb the area with ice or even Anbesol first.
