Guys not hard to buy for...
If they're tech guys, get them Best Buy gift cards.
Hope you appreciate them -- the guys' families do care and do help. Hard to believe for some....
I am sure by posting that you care, but some just use and abuse and it's always about the maternal side of the family until they need something again. Congratulations for posting and giving the guy's fanily some credit for a change. We are humans, not just a bank. OMG let the flaming begin!!
I think I have this straight-
you took a job without the new job knowing you had a vacation set up and taking right? Bad time to have started UNLESS upfront you discuss the fact you have had set up for this and that length of time. The job I am with now was started right when I had planned in advance for some time a vacation. Before hired, I told them of my plans and asked any problem? No and I have been at same place now since 2006. I never would start a job and then spring on them the next week oh vacation time. As far as advice, just find another job. If you put in your notice at first job, I probably would ask for that back until you get something else.
That's a straight lie
Last Christmas our church bought toys for the kids in the neighborhood for their parents to give them KNOWING that the chances of them ever actually participating in the church were slim to none. We didn't screen, we just made sure those parents got to give their kids a decent Christmas.
That's just one example, I can give you many more.
How about Brother Charlies, a "thrift" store in Georgia who usually just gives away clothes to anyone who can't afford to pay a couple dollars a shirt. Or the Brother Charlies shelter, who takes in any and all men (because most shelters are for women and children)
We have a conference once a month at our church and a budget list is passed out. About 70% of our funds go to organizations and food pantries. We have needed bathrooms and a new A/C unit in our church for about five years now but we are waiting until we can afford it WITHOUT taking money from the charities and pantries we support. Til then we will just put up with leaky toilets and hot summers and cold winters. God never said we'd get to be comfortable!
I'm so tired of everyone always ragging on the churches. Why don't you stop spitting the same ol' rhetoric that you hear and go do some checking out for yourself.
And before you come back and say you already did and they turned you down, then you need to check out different churches. Those that are OF GOD and FOR GOD will turn away NO ONE.
so let me get this straight. If there were a blizzard outside (sm)
and you have to go to the store (or anywhere for that matter) you're going to bundle YOURSELF up in your nice warm coat and let your daughter go with NO coat simply on the basis of principle??? And a FOUR-year-old sent off with NO LUNCH simply because they forgot it?? That is totally unbelievable and uncalled for. There's a fine line between stating a point and neglecting your children and I think you'ved crossed it!!
Straight into the arms of someone to
support me!!!!
You really are not thinking straight
beause it is your daughter but first of all, what is the age of consent in your state? You have no more rights to knowing about his jail as you do in asking him to take test for sexually transmitted diseases nor in seeing his medical records. You are going overboard against him- what about your daugher- what kind of punishment have you dealt out to her? You are blaming only him- not her- I know when I had sex early it was me and him. You have told her you are disappointed. Well, you want to wring his neck- punishing her also?? You are seeing her as this small child when actually she is past that now. You talked - that did no good - you thought lines were open with both of you - that was not true- think about how you are going in a rage against this guy. He may be the worst there is but it was not rape, now was it?
When I get those, I "forward" them straight into my
*
I loved "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" - nm
?
Straight or gay phone sex line?
Just asking because you said he turns you down, maybe it was a gay chat line.
Should I just come straight out and ask if this is like a weird sex thing?
My mom and I both were like, maybe they are busy doctors etc. etc we always try to see things in the good light... so should I just email them now and just say hey look... is this anything involving sex or games or anything like that? what if it wasn't and they then thought I WAS the crazy one and I lose an amazing opportunity! :)
You need to read the post again and get it straight
I said the place where we get the animals from do not "allow" adoption of this breed but having said that, I read and hear about their "sweetness" all the time on the news and papers and I tend to believe what I hear- you can go for it but I would rather stick with other breeds, thank you. Lots of pits not available through the shelters. Watch animal channel sometimes and you will see when they get pit bulls (I know in Detroit this is the case) they put them down, not able to rehome.
At first I just bought animals straight out
and had them vetted including neuturing or spaying and then we gave the animals to good homes. Without licensing, here you cannot sell animals. As rescuers we can just get any animals from shelters, no cost to us. Here in the south you have an overabundance of animals and so many just put down. I hear up north exact opposite. I had wanted to do something like this, like you, for quite some time and rescued a dog for myself, no where to keep, met the lady I work with now off Craigslist, stated she took in all doggies and kitties and would find them home. I gave a doggie another try at good home and I found a good home for myself! I can hardly wait for our rescuing to expand more.
i didn't see the Straight Up Latte today :(
good luck with your search
straight up latte girl see inside
hey I know you said below that you tried your own version. I was going to reply but was afraid that you wouldn't see it way down there. Anyway....I like my coffee with 8 tablespoons of light cool whip. Nothing else. It's very good that way and may be similar to your latte. Let me know if you try it!
Sorry about the typos, been up all night and can't see straight or spell it seems. nm

OMG! My mom told me that too! I ate the crusts and still have poker straight hair. nm

soak w/Windex, use straight-edged blade....
I hate this place. I really do. No snow. It's over. It was coming straight toward us and then
BAM! It went straight north! Atlanta was snowing like crazy. I'm only 2 hours from Atlanta!!!!! I am sick over here. Really. I had everything lined up at the door waiting to take my boys outside to play! Of course, we heard from friends in Tuscaloosa, AL, who had inches of snow and it was falling and sticking and THEIR kids were playing in it! I'm frustrated. My husband could care less about our kids seeing snow (he's lived in this area his whole life and has seen it maybe twice).
I on the other hand lived in NY and VT, so I am well aware of snow. I just want my kids to see it so bad, you guys.
Okay. I am having a major pity party. PLEASE, please, someone remind me (who is blessed living in a place where it DOES snow), remind me of how lucky I am to never see snow - EVER. Keep those lists coming because I need to be reminded of how lucky I am. Right now I feel punishment from God!
ADDENDUM. Just trying to get some straight answers and not sure what to make of this whole mess. nm

For me it is not about gay/straight - it is about government taking too much control of our children
That is a really sore subject with me!! I want everyone to live their lives and teach their children as they see fit. As far as the gay/straight issue, I have taught my children who are 8 and 11 about homosexuality, about people being different, acceptance, not to be judgemental. I just have an issue when public school teachers want to use the school as a public forum for whatever reason. In school I remember a teacher who had strong political views and she taught us daily her way of thinking. I don't think that is fair. I think certain things should be reserved for parents to teach their children.
Getting the stick sounds pretty straight forward to me
You could talk to someone at the school, tell them what you know, what you plan on doing, and see what kind of support becuase they may suspect problems but don't have facts.
I admit sometimes it seems easier just to look the other way, but what if there was someone that could have helped Caylee Anthony and "looked the other way". Follow your instincts.
If your suspicious prove unfounded you are out nothing but a "friend". He doesn't seem like someone I would want to be friends with and if his child acts the way you say, I wouldn't encourage a friendship between the boys.
get your facts straight. Rosie signed a school year
that was when her original contract was supposed to expire, June 2007, a school-year yearly contract. ABC wanted her to sign a 3-year contract for the amount of $$ she requested.........and she only wanted to sign a one-year contract.......
I will miss her as I had given up the View due to Star Jones' fiascos....and now, once again, after June, I will never watch it again. Rosie brought the ratings up because after 9 years of Star Jones, people were tired of the show.
Ta-Ta to The View and ABC.....
Crazy curly in the summer, poker straight in the winter
My hair changes with the weather and it is impossible to get a good hair style because it looks so different from one day to the next. But I like the color, natural blond with reddish highlights.
I used to get up and go straight to work - didn't even bother to brush my hair until after noon.
I had a holy faded T-shirt with Tweety bird (you could barely see him anymore!) and a pair of baggy sweat pants that I wore with big pink fuzzy house slippers! Until I got caught several times with a little old lady from my church stopping by to say high, salesman knocking on the door, and the final straw was my nice looking neighbor stopping buy to borrow my ladder. I finally decided perhaps I should brush my teeth and come my hair just in case!
Now, I get up every morning, take a shower, fix my hair, and put on my makeup. Then I get the kids off to school and I sit down and work. I have found that, believe it or not, I am way more productive than I used to be. I'm not distracted thinking about when am I going to make time for a shower. I still wear jeans and a T-shirt and my house slippers, but now no one can catch me looking like a worn out old hag anymore. And now that I'm single, well ya never know when you might bump into Mr. Right.
I say that all the guys go and just keep the
ladies. I am so not liking the guys this time. Have watched it every single year and there is not a single solid 100% guy there this year. Hoping the girls will do better??? They have the guys beat every which away. There is really no competition here.
are you guys serious????
having a garage door open during the day on a nice day I would hardly call that out of the ordinary or stupid...once again, conversation taken out of context...
Thanks you guys
I only have Wal-Mart here and have not seen it there, but don't go often because they infuriate me. For Prell, I guess I'll suck it up and drive on over there and check. I miss cork too. I miss soda bottles that you returned to the store (when we were broke we just went to the garage and loaded them up and there we were, had enough cash to buy food until payday). Then we had more money and our son did the same so he had cash for things kids have to have, like popsicles and more soda, maybe a slingshot or a pack of beebees for his air gun. Now, it is sad there are only cans and bottles that are worth nothing in this state, we just leave them out to recycle. Big woop. Kids hardly ever have air guns anymore and you can't trust anyone so don't let your kids walk to the store to take back the bottles to buy popsicles. I can't wait to get some Prell! It is like insurance against color grab on the ends of your hair! All you do is shampoo it up on the ends and let it sit awhile and then rinse. Even color comes back most of the time. It smells like my mom too. Sigh. Have you noticed that there are 80 gazillion types of shampoo on the rack at the grocery store sometimes and none that you want? I still say to try that got2B brand shampoo called Squeaky Clean. It smells like heaven and makes your hair clean for two days and shiny too. I am really into that shampoo and magic erasers. They are two of the few things left that are really useful. It is sad to be so old that Magic Erasers sponges turn you on admission. I guess it beats the alternative to being old. Oh cute, I have the TV on the news and there is a pig named Broccoli who fell into a pool in Tracy, California and the firemen had to get him out. He is so cute! He is black and white and VERY BIG. Hayseed needs to see this. Broccoli's owner is petting him and he is so glad to be alive and saved from drowning! Maybe we need to get ourselves a pig. They look really friendly and smart. Maybe we could teach them how to type. My friend has an English bulldog who skateboards like the one on Youtube. His name is Meat. He is a sweetie, but ate a whole couch once when they went to the store. I guess I will stick to smaller dogs and check out the CC&Rs here in case I get a pig too.
Thank you guys
for such encouraging words. I sat in on the consult today with the doctor. They are going to keep my friend in the hospital for eight to ten days under observation, but they feel he will be fine.
Guys are just different than us
Some guys are just more aroused in the morning than at night. If I wanted sex (morning or evening) like you are saying you want, I would not mind either time. I know you are probably young and cannot understand this, but there are a lot of people who have absolutely no sex, and I am one of those- not by choice, but my husband has erectile dysfunction because of diabetes and high blood pressure. He has tried so many things he has read about, not like he does not want to- I am in his corner come hel. or high water because I love him so much. We have closeness and I cherish him beyond words. I probably would say not having been married a year, you or both of you need some kind of counseling in order to work through the problems that are coming through. Just being together a year, you should still be in the honeymoon period. Starving yourself, let me say this- a guy does not care if you are skinny or heavy in the bed, they only care about 1 thing and it is not a figure or lack of. I was married the first time, no organism and finally reached 1 with the 2nd marriage. People do not climax each and every time- some people do continuously, everyone different.
old guys
This is so funny. And yes it does sound like a Marine. I can just picture my step-dad saying these very words and he served in the Marines in Nam. Thanks for the smile!
Thanks guys!
Well you guys made me feel a little better. At least I know I am not the only one. Funny thing is we are both very young, he is 29 and I am 26 and we have been married for only a year. I thought we should still be super hot for each other right? Oh well, it is not me, it is him. The things women have to put up with.
ok,you guys, I had 3 of these and one
girl. I do remember people always saying girls matured earlier, and in some ways that is true. But there was a study with MRI's that definitely showed a lack of frontal lobe growth in boys until much later than girls. Don't worry, they will all be humanoid again in their 30's! LOL
Thanks guys
for all the helpful hints. I think you are right. The bottom of my thigh touches right at the chair edge. This is where I feel discomfort at times, and then my foot will fall asleep. I think I am going to try some of your ideas and see if it helps. It is just so darn uncomfortable and it totally drains me. I am exhausted at the end of my shift, more so than just transcribing. Thanks Again!
Thanks, you guys.
I appreciate all of your support, everyone. Do you sometimes feel like you're walking around with a big red D on your forehead? I do. My own church kicked me off the music team because "divorce is a sin, and God hates divorce." That has been harder on me than the divorce itself is. The ex still attends that church, and everybody feels "so sorry for him" because mean ol' me left him. They don't know the reasons I left, and I will never tell them....but believe me, they are Biblical reasons. It's gotten to where I hesitate to tell anyone at any church I visit that I'm divorced! Another thing, how do you cope with the fact that your long time friends (who are all still married) suddenly act like you have the plague? Maybe I'm being too sensitive. I'm sure you're right....it will get better with time.
Wow guys
wonderful responses and so quickly. I hope we can keep this thread going to help each other out. I wrote down these ideas and am going to start implementing many of them right away. Here are some of my ideas:
1. Utilities - We had 2 cell phones, got rid of one, which was mine, and I hardly ever used it. My husband has to have his because we run our own business. We had 2 house lines, one for our house phone and one for a fax machine. We got rid of one line, and kept the fax line, converting it to accept phone calls as well as faxes.
2. We heat our house with corn which in Northwest Indiana is a pretty cheap way to go. It will cost us approximatey $600.00 to heat our 2600 sq ft house for the winter. We would normally pay almost $450.00 a month with our heat and electric if we paid or electric company who has a monopoly in this area; no where else to go. :-(
3. I used to throw a load or two of laundry in every day, no matter how big the load (I have an energy efficient washer), to save time and so the laundry did not pile up. However, I realized that I was wasting soap, softner, and water even though I have an energy efficient washer. So, I am doing laundry only 2 days a week, maybe three if need be. Washing bigger loads at a time.
4. In regards to above, I use my dryer as a time management issue, because I run the office of our business during the day and transcribe at night. I think I will implement hanging my clothes out next summer, because I do not think it would be efficent in the winter right now - - would it?
5. I buy all snack foods at Aldi's. You save $1.00 to $1.50 an item. I shop at the most least expensive store in the area when possible, only shopping at the higher-priced stores if there is a sale.
6. Turn off lights, computer, etc., when not in use.
7. I buy my cleaning supplies and laundry supplies at our area dollar store. They carry name-brand items as well as generic-brand, but quite a bit cheaper.
I am brain dead now. I am sure there are many more.
Please keep them coming. There were many things that you guys mentioned that I never even thought of, and I am sure we can give each other good ideas to implement. I feel we are in a war here, and we need all the ammunition we can get as we carry out our role as our home managers :-)
Thank you guys so much for your
We really appreciate the support.
I wanted to share a picture of Chewy with you . . . I had wanted to get a picture of the five of them, all lined up getting treats from Daddy, heads turning in unison watching his every move . . .
Where are you guys?...
I have a vacant house in Port Orchard and wonder if I need to be concerned.
Thanks you guys. I can't tell you how much I appreciate
this place and the ability to vent and have you guys listen unconditionally. And thank you for being so kind with your advice. I know what I did wasn't good and almost immediately regretted it. But you all are right, what's done is done, and I should just focus on my family and friends who do want to be part of our lives.
Just a followup, in case everyone was wondering about reaction to my email, I've received two responses. One from a daughter-in-law of my FIL's wife who offered her ear and her prayers and also told me that she has always wanted to say the same things. The other response I received was basically "shame on you for airing your dirty laundry" and told me I sounded like a bitter disturbed person which I guess I am. For right now anyway.
Thanks again, you guys are the best!
I think guys like this should be PUT DOWN.
Come on, you guys....sm
Please review the annals of crime. You'll find plenty of horrendous crimes that have been committed by women.
This one thread has two very sexist remarks in it. One poster signed in "what is it with men, anyway", and this poster opines that women would not commit crimes like the subject of this thread. As a male on the board, I find such remarks objectionable, and rather odd considering that the news has been rife in recent years with the Anthony story, female teachers being arrested for raping their students, and women being arrested for cruelty to animals. Before that, we had the woman who ran a boarding house for older men and poisoned them for their Social Security checks.
Please! You wouldn't tolerate this if it ran the other way.
you guys! that is exactly what i say.
i sure do. when you say up north, what do you mean? LOL. out west we use it too :)
haven't picked up on the ya'll. and even if i say it, it does not come with your cute accent. haha
plenty of people love your accent like you love English accents though! :)
Thanks a lot guys!!!
still hurts like crap, but at least it is healing!!!
Have you guys seen the news...
about the alert and info on the 9-month-old? People just blow my mind with some of the things they pull these days!!!
You guys are killing me...LOL!!!!

HEY, THAT'S BOB AND TOM!!! Great guys sm
We get them here 6 days a week from 6a to 10a. What a couple of nutcases they are! Funny as heck. Their website is www.bobandtom.com if you want to see what they really look like. Go check them out and no, I don't get referrals or anything like that for sending you to their site. They are just the funniest people I have ever heard. I mean, really, get paid to laugh on the job? That's all they do. They have the best jobs ever.
Were you guys close before this? I just
cannot believe this has escalated into this now. Even if she couldn't pay for it, she should have just admitted that they were at least partly responsible. To physically attack you though...I mean, this is your sister!
Good luck with everything and keep us updated.
I just think it is funny that you guys
call it "pop". We call it soda in our state! All that I can say is, drink water and exercise. Try to cut back on portions. Even when I did Weight Watchers, I halfed-it, and this allowed me that piece of cake, although I'm not big on sweets, but I loooovee potato chips! Even if you're not in a formal program of exercise, try doing some extra laps around the house. Put one dish away at a time and walk across your kitchen. I know it sounds silly, but I do this, and it seems to help. I only had trouble with my weight after giving birth to both of my children.
You guys are brave!
Those IUDs give me the heebie jeebies. They look like fishing lures. Oh my god, remember the ones from 30 years ago that looked like razor blades with teeth?! Not much grosses me out (I could watch surgical videos all day!), but those things make my stomach roll for some reason.
How do you guys get your backs
if you use it all over the body? I could never figure that one out.
Are you guys high?!
So I've got this thingy set up to "alert" me whenever my "handle" comes up or the name of the company I work for--and it shows this wacked thread!
I'd love to see a woman in the White House as well, but definitely not the one currently running. There's something about her that just rubs me. Oh yeah, the fact that she's still married to that dickhead for starters.
I'd vote for Ellen DeGeneres...female, gay (really frost the republicans behinds!)...and most important....A FRIGGIN RIOT! I'd love to believe that the world's problems could be solved with humor. It'd be fun to see her give it a shot though. Jon Stewart would make a great vice president.
If I were president, the White House would have a petting zoo, the rose garden would also have petunias in it, macaroni and cheese would occupy at least 1/4 of the food pyramid. Camp David would be open to the general public. All UFO information would be declassified. Political correctness would be outlawed and greenbud would be legal. Lastly, public schools would have classes on manners, school uniforms, and corporal punishment...but I guess that goes back to my pervy private fantasies again....
