Awwww. Too sweet.
LOL about the casserole!
Awwww, what a precious, sweet face!
Thanks for sharing!
awwww <3
She is soooo cute! What a lovely picture!
Awwww...
that's so cute!
Awwww
He's precious . . . cute name for him too!
Awwww, how cute
he is. I just want to give him a big hug LOL!!
awwww Hayseed - don't let the rat get you down
We knew yesterday when it was posted, this was evidently a nutjob poster.....you ought not to have *ruminated* all night about this.....got to consider each battle....and not fight every battle because the bigger picture would be winning the war......we like you...and now we don't like the poster who referred to low class.
Poop on them FOR SURE.........
Awwww poor little guy!
His eyes seem to be saying, "Why are you humiliating me like this?"
Awwww, cute dog.
Mine are sweeties too. One is a little mother to all of the animals.
Nobody messes with his kitties. Other dogs roam about and he is there standing guard to make sure they don't get his babies.
Kinda funny to watch our pits take turns giving the cats a bath. They are also better mousers and gopher hunters than the cats. Go figure.
Awwww I feel for you...your SIL has turned into
your SIL sounds like the way my mother used to be (deceased many years now) her entire life...like Joan Crawford in Harriet Craig, a movie I just saw the other night on TCM.
My father used to call my mother "Craig's Wife" when I was growing up and I never understood why until I saw Robert Osborne on TCM explaining all about this movie, Harriet Craig....which was also a remake of another movie in the 1920s or 30s called .....CRAIG'S WIFE!!!
Just know that you're the better person and I don't even know you, but I know so many women in Florida (and elsewhere too!!) who are like this and it all comes from their own insecurities and their need for control.....
Hope you get to feelin' better real soon!!
Sweet-chocolate; not sweet-cheese. nm
Adorable! Sweet, sweet, sweet!. thanks.nm.

You are soooo not alone! sm
I've lived through this, and this year was no great shakes, though not because of presents. We don't make a big deal out of presents at Christmas -- a few nice presents for the kids (teenagers), and DH and I don't actually exchange gifts, but we do go and spend time together one night during the holiday season, usually dinner at a local spot we like. I'm very happy with that arrangement. If I want something for myself, I can buy it when I want it, so it's the time together that I value the most.
Unfortunately, I had a horrible Christmas this year, but it was because I felt completely unappreciated. I spent weeks preparing things, all the usual traditions that we do in our house, decorating, cookies, entertaining, all that sort of thing. I like doing it, but it's a lot of work. Christmas Eve came, and we went to church. After church, I asked to go for a drive to look at lights. DH made a fuss over it, and I made a fuss back, saying that it was one thing that I enjoy, and given all that I do, it sure would be nice if he'd kick in and do something *I* like to do just this one night. He then insisted that the boys had to go, too, because, "If I have to do it, then they have to do it, too." You'd think I had asked him to clean toilets or something! I didn't really care if the boys came. they are 16, 17 and 18 years old. I didn't expect that to be their idea of fun. But they were forced to go and we piled into the van. We started down the street, and they were all heckling and making rude comments. We only drove for 15 minutes when I told DH to go home. I had enough. It was no fun, and DH was goading the boys on. It certainly wasn't any fun for me. They stopped laughing and talking at that point. When we got home, I lined them all up and recounted everything I do for them, told them that they were ungrateful little so-and-so's for not at least trying to tolerate something that interests me, and since I was the one who shops for all of them, and I'm the one who knows where their presents are hidden, they were stuck for Christmas until I darn well felt in the Christmas spirit again. I went up to my room, stuck my iPod in my ears and went to sleep. By 10:30 the next morning, still no present opening. I didn't feel like it. I had another conversation with them about how unappreciated I felt, that they don't even bother to say "Thanks, mom. Dinner was delicious," when I make them dinners every night. "Ever wonder where your clean underwear comes from? There's no maid in this house!"
It wasn't a pleasant Christmas morning, but men never seem to understand what we want -- to be appreciated. And most of us aren't brought up to bang our own drum, but you know what? I'm no saint. I can't give and give and give just for the sake of being a "good" wife and mother. I'm not a doormat. Men have to be told that once in a while, just once in a while, they need to say thank you, make the females in their lives the center of attention, and not be so stinking selfish. It took a while, because they thought I was mad because they made a fuss about going to see Christmas lights. I really had to work at getting them to see that I was mad because they couldn't do this ONE little thing that I like to do, and that they get a darn lot of good things in life because I orchestrate it for them. They need to realize that all of that doesn't come from fairy dust and wishing. MOM does it. Once in a while, be nice.
OK, so how the story ended . . . I didn't make them dinner on Christmas. (Luckily, no company for us.) They made themselves bacon and eggs. I wasn't hungry and I told them I was going to take care of myself. Today, 12/26, is my birthday. One son made me breakfast this a.m. They all said they were sorry, and DH told me this morning that he was sorry for setting a bad example for them on Christmas Eve and making the boys go. He also gave me a very nice birthday present.
I am soooo glad. Even with her gone
I still don't plan on watching it. When they brought on Rosie, I saw a side of Barbara and Elizabeth that I don't like. I never cared for Joy so guess the show just isn't for me!!! I liked Meredith and Star. The original group made for some interesting, intelligent conversations. Don't need any more crap TV.
bye bye Rosie
Soooo sorry for your loss
 (((Hugs)))
That is soooo true.
Sometimes I post under Me, but it is I, Misha with the dirty-nose dog. And you're right, you have to snap the picture quick because the dirt falls off their Teflon-like fur.
In the first picture of your dog I have a strange urge to start tufting her. In the next picture she's all brushed out - whew. It's hard to control that urge to pluck loose tufts.
Soooo true! LOL! nm

Soooo happy! sm
As the Tacoma newspaper headline read, Phinally! Wish I could skip work and go to the parade...just like when I skipped school in 1980 for that parade.
Soooo....I'm getting braces...please sm
Does anyone have any advice for taking care of braces that the dentist doesn't tell you? What to expect while getting them on, how to take care of them afterward, etc. I've never had to deal with braces before...no kids. And I'm not sure what to expect. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks
That is soooo funny!
Do any of you cat lovers have info/ideas about allergy to cats? I absolutely love them but immediately start itching then wheezing when I get close to one. This year my daughter started feeding a stray cat. A few months later the cat started "talking" to her, and shortly thereafter led 3 little kittens up to her. Forward 7 or so months to our freezing winter and 3 more darling kittens. She set them up in a spare bedroom, but of course they are beginning to trapse out and about (4 weeks old). They are adorable. The 2 grandsons of course are carrying them all over the house and bringing them to show grandma how cute they are. So far Benadryl and a lot of CPAP is keeping me breathing. An allergist told me years ago that taking "shots" did not help with continuous exposure. In another 3 months or less, hopefully, the weather will be where they can safely be set up outside. Also my daughter has promised they will all go to the vet and the momma will be spaded, and whatever else needs to be done for them. But 8 cats!! and they are all adorable. Help!! Thank you ever so much for any advice/input/experience you have.
This sounds soooo good - sm
do you get this out or you make it yourself? If you make it yourself, how?
I am soooo glad I grew up when I did
This comes from an older voice but I had a close friend in high school. I used to visit in her home and had no idea that this girl only owned 1 blouse. She told me years later how poor she was and she washed that 1 blouse out every night and wore to school the next day = this was in high school. I still have this friend to this day, 40 something years later and so glad I was not so superficial as to just like someone for what they had or did not have.
I would fight you for that! He is soooo sexy....nm
nm
I SOOOO agree with you. You are spot on. nm.

I am soooo decorating challenged and need help. I want to put some color
on my bedrom walls, I'm thinking a light sage color. If I paint the walls the sage color, does the ceiling get painted the same or an off/white? If I paint the ceiling the same color as the walls wont the room feel much smaller and "cave" like? I have comforter with olive, sage, dark brown colors. Average size room with windows on 2 walls so there will be light coming in.
Thanks for your ideas.
Soooo let's talk casinos and gambling
I had lunch today with my women's golf group at a buffet inside one of the local casinos. I was astounded to see how many people were in there, gambling away, mid-day, mid-week. I must admit, I've never been in a casino before this afternoon, so I am totally in the dark as to what the appeal is.
Any of you here enjoy the games, the gambling, the atmosphere (at least it wasn't smoky!)? What's the draw, cuz I sure don't get it?
Oh my gosh.. I agree he was soooo terrible! Sanjaya here we go again. nm

I soooo love Friday Night Lights, except sm
they are actucally putting it on Friday Nite. I am afraid that many people that watch this show actucally go to Friday nite hight school football. My hubby and son always go see our high school team play. I just don't want them to have low ratings and get dropped.
AW he is soooo cute. We just adopted Chip last week - sm
He is what the shelter called a beagle mix, but if he is mixed with anything I will eat my hat... Okay I do not have a hat, but I would be surprised...LOL.
Here is a pic of him..

I hope your transition is as easy as ours was. We have 2 other rescue doggies, both lab mixes and female and the three of them were fast friends. Of course we have no diningroom left with 3 creats in it, but who cares...
FEELINGS. . . SOOOO sick of that stupid thing! NM

Soooo cute! I have a lab/great dane mix... scary to some 'cause he is so big. But he is a big wus
Are those mini-pins! A while ago I was running with Walter (my dog) and we came across a lady with 2 mini-pins. Walter wants to meet everyone and the lady said they were friendly so we let them sniff, but all of a sudden they were all over Walter with little tiny flashing teeth. Walter yiped like a little baby and skulked away and the lady said "oh my they never do that." Why do they always say that, like it is my big dog's fault?
Well anyway, just this weekend I saw the mini pins in her car at the market when by coincidence I parked next to it. When I opened my door they were up on the dash and leaping at the crack in the window and snarling and barking at me. I know they could not get to me but I cringed and hustled away. They looked really scary! I swear I felt like they could jump up on me and grab on something like my ears or something and not let go.
But I am sure they are sweet... NOT! But it goes to show you never know... they are all animals, after all. And like people all have very distinct personalities, very much formed by their family (the people family, I mean). I could tell the owner of the mini pins was kind of a ---- well you know, not that nice... she left them in the hot car, after all... and they were pretty much a product of their upbringing.
I too actually think pits have some of the sweetest dispositions I have ever met in a dog.
What a sweet, sweet face!
I have tears in my eyes. I will see what I can do about getting him a hat from PA. Do you know do they just want ball caps or would a beanie be okay, too?
Sweet or not sweet cornbread?

These are all so sweet....
This is the sweetest posts I have read here for a while. I have two. First, the love of Jesus in my life. There is no other comparison to his love. Thank you Jesus! Second, the way my DH searches me out in a crowded room. That makes me feel pretty special! Enjoyed these sweet posts!!
This is actually a sweet one-
My twin sister and I were adopted and from as early as I can remember we were told that we were special cause mommy and daddy got to choose us. For years I envisioned this baby store where parents would cruise up and down the aisles until they found the ones they wanted. And I always did feel special because of it.
Aw, how sweet.
On Father's day I called the house and mom answered, but I had a question about a gift I was getting Dad, so thankfully I thought to ask if Dad was right there too (couldn't tell if we were on speaker). Turned out he had also picked up, which surprised me so much that instead of wishing him a happy FD, I told him he needed to get off the phone! How wude!
I did see him later in the day and apologized, LOL.
How sweet.
My child is the light of my life and love reading things like this. Be sure to write that down so you and she don't forget it as they grow up so quickly. You made my day==thanks!
sweet 16
My daughter is not studious but more of the artsy, eccentric type, but she did not want the big sweet 16 bash. Instead, she had a formal tea party at our house with 7 of her friends. They all wore fancy dresses, high heels. She filled the room with flowers, made little sandwiches, tea obviously, fancy desserts, tablecloths, doilies, etc. It was so over the top, it was funny rather than weird and geeky, and they had a blast! Later, just she and I went to NYC together and saw some plays, went shopping, did museums.
But this is a kid who shops at thrift stores and vintage shops and would not be caught dead in anything bought at a mall. So whatever is "in" is "out" for her.
Sweet 16
 How about tickets to a concert by her favorite performer/group for both of them, rented limo to take them to a fancy dinner first? Or, does she know her friend's family well? If so, how about a dual party? Just thinking out loud. It's a special day for her, one she ought to remember always. My parents didn't have a lot of money, and my sweet 16 (a gazillion years ago) was just a house get-together with about 6 people, but it was fun because that special day was acknowledged. I had a cousin whose sweet 16 was held in a nightclub. Trini Lopez was performing there, and I saw Connie Stevens sitting at the next table!
Wow! How sweet to ask! sm
I didn't want to post "little change in condition" but thank you for asking so I will post an update. It is getting worse but not progressing as quickly as I thought it would back on Saturday. I'm having to hand feed her and am trying to find goodies that will tempt her to eat. I had some liquid pain medicine from before and so she was taking that in tuna water (which she used to love) but now won't even drink that so I can't get any pain medication in her. She didn't sleep well last night. She keeps looking at me and meowing and I wish I could speak cat. The time is close I think. I'll let you know when.
sweet
Good to hear you smiling again Hayseed......Cedric is so cute Misha...He and Sasha are gonna keep you busy!
How Sweet!
Wish my baby was still sweet. She's a black lab now 1-1/2 years old and sure knows how to rule hubby. She gives him heck every time he won't do what she wants. 
I can't sit on the couch when he's working or she jumps right up on me and lays upside down on my lap. She's no lightweight, either. She weighs 80 pounds.
They want to be near YOU! Sweet! nm

Definitely not sweet...nm
:))
Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! - nm
!
How sweet! sm
Yeah, it's a bill, but it's something for you specifically, something you can use all by yourself :-)
Of course, you'll use the money on bills that you didn't have to spend on glasses. lol
That was very generous and kind of her.
They look so sweet!
 Cat
sweet.

Thank you, you are so sweet!! nm

sweet!!!
for clothes
Sweet isn't exactly what he is going for. LOL
Wish it was that simple. He's a man, he has an alterior motive and it's not to be sweet. He even tells me so. lol
