That is true - and I LOVE that about him - but also want him to be happy (sm)
I want him to continue on his nonconformist path - we have had the talk about how sometimes being a nonconformist can be a lonely road on some days but that it can be worth it too. I also want him to seek out things he enjoys and have lots of friends though
Thank you!! I love your reply! So glad you are so happy! (nm)

Need some light and laughter.
You know, I have been reading the gab board all weekend and into today and there have been a lot of depressing posts and help needed everywhere. I got to thinking today that lots of things are going wrong this Christmas and maybe we need to reflect on our own lives. I have felt sad and sorry for all the posts I have read.
Mine may seem trivial, but after today's soul searching and reading of the boards, it hit me hard. I am an animal lover. I have 3 indoor cats and have been taking care of a feral cat clan, helping out a local feral cat society. It is a long story but I kind of fell into it. I was taking care of 9 outdoor cats, males mostly with 1 adult female and 2 female kittens (I got them spayed). Well, tonight we found one of the feral cats was hit by a car near our driveway. It hit me hard, even though she *technically* wasn't mine. We named her Momma (original, huh) because she was the mom to all of the kittens over the years. She was a beautiful cat and a terrific mother. She never let me pet her but appreciated me and my time taking care of her kittens. I only regret not taking a picture of her. She was gray with green eyes. My husband buried her in our yard as we were the only family she really knew. My heart goes out to the strays, and it hurts me to know she never really was loved on this earth except by me. I just wanted to post this to have other people send thoughts her way and just think of a cold feral cat in need of love. I will never forget her.
I know it seems petty compared to all of the other issues brought up on this board and don't want to be a *Debbie downer*. I really did want everyone to think of her and a lonely animal in their life whom they could touch and take care of.
Thanks for reading :(
laughter is the best medicine.
I know exactly what you mean. We're all there. I like the residents that can't pronounce the big words or the medicines. Or the ones that say "oh, you know what I mean". Do I? Probably but am I allowed to make you sound intelligent or am I supposed to type what you say?
And, I always like when they say "I am seeing this patient on October 24, 1944." Am I in an episode of Quantum Leap?
And, finally, I like when they dictate that "this man has refused a pelvic". Ya think?
Sorry, got happy way too soon, congrats to Steelers, still love Kurt.....(really-a-Patriots-fanatic,

Kids are great. They can bring tears of laughter and sadness
with a blink of the eye. Glad he is okay!
Sharing laughter, but giving each other some space and "me" time, doing little things

Well, you should care. Clearly, you are not God filled otherwise
you wouldn't have such negative, uncaring thinking about Christmas and not merely assume that it's all about commercialism.
I filled in the cracks
I filled in the cracks with sheet rock filler/mud, then put a primer on to make it look texturized and then paint over that. Of course it was my bedroom and I wanted it to look texturized walls. It looked great. But am now taking it down and sheet rocking the walls so it is done right and better insulated. But you will save yourself time if you buy a decent primer before you put on your color paint. Good luck

It doesn't have to be filled with china. SM
You can put anything in there with the china. Books, pictures, knick knacks, whatever you feel looks good. It would be nice to add some color, since glassware is clear and china might be light.
My days are filled with happiness
and not anger. I get out of the house and I unfortunately do not have any roses to smell right now. May be I will buy some. I do lead a pleasant life, and again I am not confused. Again, have a nice day. Over and out.
checked the schedule, even filled out the
other info from my tax return.
protein-filled snacks/foods.....
I meant to say didn't get the Xanax filled. nm

My days are filled with happiness, not anger
and do not dwell on things that happened 13 years ago like some. We were on here talking about 1 thing and when you interject like you did, then the whole subject opened up again. I am sorta you are a confused person. Take a break- get out of the house, smell the roses, lead a pleasant life.
I filled out the form tons of times, but
then would never actually stick it in the mail.. I think I tried that coffee once & it was really good.. me and dh quit drinking coffe, I'm more of a cold weather person with coffee, but I have a Starbucks Mocha frapp every morning, or in the afternoon (if I have to get up and leave) but I stick it in the freezer & let it get slushy, yuummmoo
Filled up the Bounder for our first trip last week. It cost $897.52.
We will probably camping longer and routing very cautiously this year. No more spur-of-moment long-distance trips.
Doesn't offend me to hear Happy Holidays, Happy Hannuka...sm
or any way someone wants to greet me. As a basic rule, people use the greeting most comfortable to the speaker. What does burn my butt is when someone tries to tell me that my comfortable greeting of "Merry Christmas" is not appropriate. To those who are not concerned with my comfort, I have no concern for theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.
I'm having good luck with Slimfast Optima. Keeps you filled for hours

She's sweet. I think she's gorgeous. Love her hair. Love her sm
smile. I wish I looked that great! I don't even come close, so who am I do judge? I admire beauty greatly in other women...I envy them!
sweet....love the heart charm, he's got love.

God bless you on your path, all love begins with self-love, so you are really on your way.....sm
We should have less time putting needless labels on things, paying attention to dividing lines, and pratice more love, understanding, and humiility....we will all have things to answer for, no one is perfect, but I believe we are all precious and loved by the Lord, who knows all hearts, and has infinitely more compassion and mercy than ANY of us can comprehend. Be happy and take care of yourself, sexuality is such a small part of who we are in this world, but you have to be happy and at peace.
I love the animal channel, really love it and
my sweetie and I both watch but I absolutely, even if I know nature and the balance of, want to see small animals being killed and eaten and so forth. I know it happens but I either change the station or pick up the paper and read or find another way so I don’t watch. Also watch Discovery, love animals and love those shows!
I love you! hahaha I love your response! You can come over here sm
and kick my butt the next time I "allow" my husband to make me feel crap for whatever reason - which there seems to be many - he wouldn't complain if I made more money than him because his lazy behind wants to stay home and do nothing all day except to play golf. He tells me all the time, "when are you going to own your MT business so I can golf all day."
But, he is very mean, also. He hurts my feelings constantly and doesn't even care. He makes me drive around in his truck with bald tires and I don't like doing that for fear of a blow out and he'll just tell me, "well, don't go anywhere then." We have the money in the bank to get new tires, but he won't get them.
I love your comment, though!
And for all of you who will say, "well, leave the jerk!" It isn't that easy. We have 3 boys and I would be homeless. I only make 300 every 2 weeks MTing. We have a lovely home with a lot of space and besides him living here, the kids and I LOVE it and love each other so much.
Well, I LOVE a challenge too, Would love to debate this one day with you! sm
haha
Seriously, I was a staunch atheist for 20+ years. It's funny, though. I, too, believe that we are all electrical energies and that energy doesn't "die" and so, theoretically, where does your "electricity" go when you die, i.e., your spirit? I believe that "energy" within us is our spirit life - and that must go somewhere, right? It doesn't just go into the groun - which is what I thought for so long.
Anyways, when I learned about our "energy" and how it must go somewhere, I was really testing the waters of Christianity up to that point. After hearing about that, I was convinced that there must be an afterlife. I believe we go either of 2 places.
Anyways, I love ALL people of all religions, regardless of what I "think" or "believe." I don't think any less of you because of your beliefs! If I were to believe in a God who forgave me and loved me in my mut and mire, who am I to judge and criticize those who think differently of me?
I've always liked you no matter what your philosophy on life was....
Love people who love dogs.

I love the dressing and I love lemon pie..sm
My mom's lemon pie that is. I also love this dessert called Texas Delight or some people call it different things but is is layers of chocolate pudding and cream cheese and whipped cream. The food is my favorite part besides the watching my son open presents on x-mas.
Young love/older love
I think it has a lot to do with your age and his. I married hubby at age 59 and he was 49. Best thing I ever did but say if you are 30 and he is 20, hmmm in that case might not be so workable. What are the ages here?
Give her love, love, love and if she...
doesn't want medicine - don't force it. Does she like to be stroked or does she like her belly rubbed? You better than anyone else know how to make her feel loved. Give her that. If her times comes before Monday, all the better for you and her. She'll die peacefully in her loving home. But, if not, be prepared to give her the last loving gesture you can - if it's time to, than let her go.
I had to put my 13 year old Lab down two months ago. It is one of the hardest things to do. But, you'll know when it's time. My dog, Shadow, told me he was done, tired, beat. He sent me the message quite clearly. But, still I waited, not for him but for me! Finally I "heard: him and did what needed to be done. I sobbed for hours and then just suddenly stopped, I realized I was crying for me - not for him! He had had a wonderful loving home with "mom and dad and brother". He was old and tired and wanted to rest. He deserved that rest! So, it's done. Yeah, I'm still sad. But I know that it was the right thing to do. And, yeah, call me nuts if you want - I know that when it's my time that Shadow will come running, knock me over, sit down on my chest and lick me silly!
Now, I'll go and give my cat lots of love and remember the fun I had with Shadow. My thoughts are with you - make the best of the time you have with your loved one's, be them human or furry! My thoughts are with you.
Most men would be happy for a new toy.
My sister got me a toy many moons ago, I named it gumby. My son was 2 at the time and found it DURING a dinner party I was having. He ran into the room waving "gumby" over his head yelling that everyone should look at this sword. My mouth hit the floor and my friends just about peed in their pants laughing. :-)
Happy 4th everyone!!! (sm)
If you're off, have a wonderful day and enjoy it for all of us. If you're working (like me), I hope we can keep productive and make it through another day with little or no downtime. Again, Happy 4th of July!!!!
happy for you!
congratulations! I hope to be debt free myself one of these days, and once I get out of debt, to be smart enough to stay out!
Enjoy the good feeling that you are getting out of all your hard work!
***** LOL, that should say I think you CAN be happy... ****
Sorry, didn't get enough sleep lastnight and it has been a long day already. My 2 month old is not feeling well.
Happy 62 B-Day to you! nm

Happy. nm

I'm so happy
What great news. I hope she stays on the right track. I'll continuing sending prayers.
They look so happy!
Are they all from the same litter? Brothers and sisters? Come on....tell us a little more about them! They must be quite the handful!
Looks like a happy pup to me!
You know your dog better than anyone, and you know if he's happy. My mom had a dog that would bark over every little thing and it made me not want to visit her. It hurt my ears so bad I almost couldn't stand it. She would put a bark collar on her when guests came over to spare them the assault on their ears, and we all appreciated it, let me tell you! She tried several other methods, but they just didn't work on her dog. Dogs are all different, just like kids.
I used to live in a duplex and the people next door had the most horrible barking dogs. It really made my time in that place miserable. I was pregnant and tired all the time but could not get a nap to save my life because of those darn dogs! The owners have a responsibilty to the neighbors to keep their dogs fairly quiet in my opinion. I am an animal lover (also a long-time vegetarian), but those dogs grated on my last animal-loving nerve! Keep taking good care of your dog - he looks quite content and loved to me!
I think you should be happy
because there is a clinical reason for your troubles and those can be managed with meds and behavioral strategies. Best of luck to you. Please don't let it get you down. Better days are ahead. BELIEVE ME!
Wow! I'd be happy with
half of that!
We did get one snow here in NC that was close to 20 inches, and it was lots of fun, but also challenging because it happened all at once, just like you got, and regular cars can't drive until it's been cleared. Now up in WI, the plows would be on top of it immediately, but here in NC, homeowners were having to use shovels. It was like caveman days for about 4 days here! LOL.
You will be happy to know.....SM
That I called another Kohl's about a half hour away from me yesterday. They had the exact number of plates I needed, as well as other pieces............at 80% off, so I went ahead and got them.
