In Reply to: Yesterday I was at the mall and a - Which one was it? LOL
Just yesterday, my daughter and I (she drives with her permit) were taking my dog to the vet for a routine visit, and our dog was in the front seat belted in with his harness leash, with my daughter driving and me in the back seat. On the way home, we stopped for an iced cappuccino at a drive-through, and the young guy giving us our order kiddingly remarked to my daughter as to the fact that the dog is riding in front, and she "makes her friend" ride in the back seat. My daughter replied that it was her "mother", and he said, "Wow"! It made my day, but I take care of myself and have always looked younger than my age. I am a humble person, but I know I am attractive. I strive to always be in good health and in good shape.  That was a nice "pick-me-up."

What a nice response by a nice mom
What a gracious, well-adjusted response to a rude, obviously maladjusted poster--Hard to imagine someone with such an empty life and such a petty spirit that they would take the time to post criticism about a kid's feet! (Some people really have major issues, LOL!)
Nice to know I'm not alone ...
my son is 20, and is finally taking his road test in 2 weeks, and even at his age I'm scared to death. Have been riding back & forth with him to college, lately I've been reading a book while he drives to be sure he isn't depending on me to watch out for things for him.
He has been learning on and off for years, one minute he wants his license, the next he couldn't care less. But I guess it's finally time now. And I do feel he is much more mature at 20 than he was at 16, but for most kids it's hard to get them to wait.
I'm not as nice as you, but
I recently tried to say something really nice to a person at church I admired, and who had just had surgery and was finally back at church. I said something about missing him and caring about him and he seemed offended. Everybody seems to love my husband, though he doesn't go very often, but they seem annoyed with me. Not sure what I did either.
I have a cat I got when she was 1...nice with certain
She is now 3-1/2 and she always hisses at my daughter and her fiance.....it's really not nice, and it's always ongoing, and I *think* she (the cat) may be jealous. I never had a jealous cat before. *lol*
I had a male cat for 13 years who died in 2004 and he did hiss but not at the daughter (but then she kind of grew up with him....)
hope it gets better with your little furkid...(cute!!)
It's so nice to know I'm not the only one
I have three children and have bottle fed all of them. With my first, I was so determined to breasfeed. I "breastfed" my daughter for 3 1/2 weeks. She always cried and I thought she was just colicky. Come to find out I was not producing enough milk and I either needed to supplement with formula or bottle feed all together. Well, I went home and cried my eyes out feeling like a terrible mother because after her first bottle she hardly ever cried again!!!!
It is so nice to know I am not the only one that had a problem like this. I have always felt so bad that I could not breastfeed. I do not think that other women should me made to feel that way. Breastfeeding is a wonderful thing, but it is not the only way to have healthy children. I was bottle fed and doing just fine and so are my three children.
I met her once - she was SO nice!

Very nice
But I'm in zone 7a! It might survive here, with southern exposure, but it would be iffy.
My hydrangea is just about to bloom, though - the blooms are somewhat similar. I thought I lost it over the cold, cold winter but it came back and has little florets all over getting ready to burst into bloom. 
it's nice you appreciate her this way
there are so many nasty ones at that age that care only about their own image, no compassion for others. My daughter is like yours, too, and she cannot stand all the snotty immature ones - who raises kids like that.
nice!
have you ever heard of kicking a person when they are down? your posts are disgusting. maybe you did need your dad to give you some better manners. we are all thrilled that you have such a wonderful life. personally, wonder what you say to them when they are upset, scrape their knee, make a bad grade, wreck their first car, or are in a bad relationship one day. hope you respond better to them than you did this poster. shame on you.
Nice guy
I love random acts of ego boosters. :-)
Isn't it really nice to use?!
I've only tried the Bare Minerals and only use it when I go out, which isn't often, so it's lasted me a looooong time. I have skin that peels, breaks out, or gets a rash from just about anything I put on it--even baby moisturizers. This has been the only makeup I have been able to use without any of those side effects. It doesn't have any smell, any weight to it, and yet it magically covers and stays put. The only bad thing I've had happen is when I wore it and worked up a sweat this summer....it did make my face itch but nothing bad happened. I highly recommend it to anyone with uber-sensitive skin like mine and I'm glad you've enjoyed it too--no matter what the brand!
What a nice looking dog.
as an owner. We can love our dogs and have our peace at the same time.
Not nice, Kit because
I work 14 hours a day, have a husband, have four people who live in our home and find this a trial because our home is too small for what we have, especially since my mom died and left me all her stuff. I can't seem to get rid of enough stuff to make cleaning easy or something do-able in a reasonable period of time. On my day off it takes my daughter, husband and I eight hours to clean and I am still not satisfied. I have massive amounts of laundry that I do each day besides work and cook all our meals too. It would help if we could afford to remodel the house (it is old and has no storage areas and not enough electrical outlets), and I already have three sheds in the back yard that are full, so I am at a point where I either have to get a loan and remodel, move to a larger house with storage and more outlets and a couple more clothes closets would be nice. It would be wonderful if I could have a pantry again. I especially abhor my kitchen which is small, designed by a man who must have only warmed up leftover takeout, and has NO ROOM for people who actually cook food and do dishes and own appliances. I am too tired to move and too scared to get a loan, so I keep on staying here and the time it would take to clean it to my satisfaction on a daily basis would ensure that I could only work 4 hours a day and then we would all starve because of lack of income. It only takes a couple of minutes several times a day to check the internet, so that time saved would be of no help to me. I only watch one TV show a day while we have a lunch break and after I eat the lunch I fold clothes, unload the dishes and start dinner while watching the other half of it, and have three a week that I watch in the evening (usually I record these and watch them after I go to bed at night) so that time would not be saved either. I have delegated, my daughter is an immense help, but still I CANNOT CLEAN MY OWN HOUSE to my satisfaction in a reasonable period of time by myself. Sometimes I feel like just leaving it all here and moving away without anything and starting over in an EMPTY HOUSE. That, I could clean, no sweat!
That was so nice!
Thanks Desperado and the same to you also! 
you obviously were being nice
and letting her delay the 2 wks rent...but if she is going to start 'acting like a renter' -- whoa! that sounds bad -- i'd say its time to cut your losses and ask her to leave.
that was really nice of you (sm)
Can't say what I would do, but that's a very lucky dog to have you as a neighbor. A friend of mine was in a similar situation. Her dog was poisoned by an annoyed neighbor... or someone... She lives in the country and the pen wasn't even near anyone's property, but dogs are vulnerable to any mishap when left out on a long-term basis.
My dogs howl when they hear the garage door when I come home from an errand and many times get the neighbors' dogs howling...
They'll also howl on cue. My daughter looks at my male and puts her head up in the air like she's howling, he he will immediately start and then my female dog joins in. It's like a little tune. The rest of us in the house (and probably the people next door) are not amused by this...
You are a good person.
very nice (nm)

Sure it would be nice
but there's no reason we can't discuss those here.
Seen any good one's lately? not me. too expensive to go to the theater.
Oh, but I did see the lake house...wow! That was such a good movie! I watched it about 5 times in 1 weekend!
NICE!! Thank you! nm

Nice pic!
Now I'm looking forward to summer! It's 17 degrees here and windy.
Plus, I'd love to look that good in a bathing suit!
must be nice to not need $$$
what a braggart!!!
No, this was definitely not nice. Not toward
my mom and also not toward me. But now, as my sister took all the money from my mother, she has to care for our mom in case something bad happens, she might even pay for our mom's stay in the nursing home if her retirement funds run out.
So I just let it go, it's my sister.
It looks nice, but I would have liked it more without this
white fluffy thing on top.
How much do you ask for it?
And do you make it only in black/white or also in other colors?
Very nice. I really like the third one
You really should start doing that on the side. Go to craft shows, etc. Sell on line. Who knows? Might be profitable for you. Good luck.
How nice of you!
You made my day! Hey, wouldn't it be cool if all us animal lovers could form a rescue group where we MT'd and rescued together so we could make money and then spend it all on the animals! LOL The group could be called:
MTs To The Rescue!!!!
Thanks, nice of you to say so....nm
ss
i think its nice when they say something
like that or just thanking the transcripitionist for typing, etc.. some they just do their dictations & are done, so it is good when someone seems to really care..
very nice
First of all, I certainly hope I never remember what you wrote because it is crass, rude, irrelevant, and it is incorrect. My children are all adults now with families of their own. And we are all very close and have wonderful and loving relationships.
That is really nice to hear.

there are nice people out there!
I have a son, a Marine, 1st.sgt. serving in Iraq. In his BD package I put in a jar of Mrs. Renfro's Jalapeno Green Salsa, HOT. I received a request a week ago from his unit, wanting more, the jar was nearly gone! I ran to the store, bought a case and shipped it. The nearly went out of their minds with thanks! I thought it would be nice to let the company know how much their product was liked, so I sent an E-mail, describing everything. A Becky Renfro E-mailed me back immediately, wanted the address of my son and his company in Iraq...and they too sent a case! I'm so glad there are people out there that appreciate our troops and want to be good to them. I support the troops 200%, but not the current administration. Anyway, I thought it was a lovely, lovely thing for them to do.
Semper Fi!
It was a nice day Misha....
I'm glad the time changed. Longer days, more sunshine! LOL I'm ready for the new season... Would love to do some clothes shopping! 
Destin in NW FL is nice! nm

KMA, nice site (sm)
that does stink; did your sister own KMA or are these 2 different things?
Here's a link to a Cricut discussion there for the OP:

Then go to her and tell her, say your piece but be nice - sm
about it. She will no doubt get defensive, so unless you want a permanent rift you (unfornately) have to be careful in how you phrase your complaint of her being totally nasty, rude and tactless herself. Just explain to her that her little digs hurt your feelings and you are only trying to help her out as you care for her, etc. Tell her if she continues to make the cutting comments about her perceived inability to help her out now and then that you will just have to stop helping her and limit your time with her as she is making you feel like dirt and killing your self-esteem. Maybe that will get her to knock it off, if it does not, then just cut her out, no one needs that kind of garbage in their life and let her be bitter and alone and nasty to herself.
What a nice break!
Only 24 hours though, seriously?! That's just too danged short!
I went there maybe 10 years ago and went to the keys...oh wow just gorgeous. LOVE the fact that there are a ton of "tiki" bars serving fruity drinks almost everywhere down there. We took our rental car and DROVE right on Daytona Beach! I dunno if you can still do that or not but it was incredibly fun!
When it was time to go home I actually cried. On the drive back to the airport we pulled over some place and took a walk through some sort of boardwalk in a swamp and saw a few spiders that were as big as my head. I got totally heebed out and deciced it was really time to go back to New England, cause that just ain't right.
Glad you had a safe trip and welcome back!
That would be sooo nice.
We've been getting rain here in NC, so I'm grateful for that, but I am not in love with the head and humidity.
aww, what a nice post and
There have been many awesome women leaders, not just of countries, but of organizations, companies, etc.
I believe a good, strong woman could do the job as well as or better than any man.
I do like Hilary. There is a lot of stuff in her past as well as present that impress me. She is incredibly eloquent and cannot believe all the coherent thoughts she can squeeze into one sentence.
Not sure yet who I'm voting for. Unfortunately, I like some of the guys that will be lost to the wayside in the coming months.
Should be an interesting race, nonetheless! :-)
Oh, and thanks for the kudos to single parents. I've been one for over 10 years. My last is in college :-)
Boy nice to know EVERYONE wants money - sm
Yes, money is nice, but not everyone at my wedding gave us money. We received many "gifts" that we actually use, guess your "friends" don't know what you like (oh, yeah, it's money). Of all our "gifts" I only returned 1 as we just did not like it, some sort of crystal tray; my DH picked out a very nice roasting pan in its place and we use that all the time. We received a dinner cruise from one friend, baseball tickets from another which we used with my parents, towels which we still use after 11 years (very good quality though 1 set is finally dying), T-Fal set we still use today, pasta machine which makes incredible homemade pasta, a toaster oven (that died from over use), picture frames (can never have enough of them) and a ice tea maker. All of them get used, some more than others yeah, but we appreciated every gift, as well as the monetary ones which basically ranged from $20-200, with an addition $26K from the parents ($1K from his, $25K from mine-and his are wealthy) None of this money went to paying for the actual wedding though we did use maybe $800 to pay for the hotel for my DH, and for the honeymoon. The rest we banked and eventually bought some land as an investment which since we bought it has doubled in value. By the way our wedding was about $5K total, including honeymoon, fully catered (that was most of it at about $2500), and only 50 guests. W/o the parents $ we received close to $3K; in your greed I am sure you got more but what did you do with it? Buy fancy car or home, take an extravagant vacation/honeymoon, pay off the wedding debt? I bet you have nothing to show for your "friends" generosity. I sure hope you wrote thank you notes but from your entitled attitude I doubt it.
Why thank you! What a nice thing to say!
My lovely piggy demonstrated to my neighbors and me that my electric fence no longer zaps like it should by blazing a path through the fence to their apple tree, which is currently dropping lovely apples all over the ground just for her! They said she's actually been doing that for almost 2 weeks now but never told me because they love having her come over and visit! Can you imagine?! Here I am, typing away all day, having absolutely no clue to the malfesiance going on in my own back yard! I mean, she would be in her stall in the morning for breakfast, and at night she was in her stall waiting for dinner. Little did I know she had this daily appointment for the past few weeks!
Obviously I can't let her "walk abouts" continue because it's just not cool. They are super great neighbors and am so lucky they love animals, but no one likes a rogue pink pig.
So, I just came in from whacking about 1/4 acre of incredibly thorny scotch thistle that is growing along my electric fence line, which is stealing the juice from my zappy fence, and I almost did my "fainting goat" routine. As I was whacking with a manual weed whacker (kind of like a sickle), a GARGANTUAN black and yellow spider was danging from the end of my whacker in extremely close proximity to my face.
I just froze and nearly lost bowel function. I think it was a good 10 minutes before I was able to move from where I was standing, spider just sitting on the sickle without a care in the world, clueless as to it's power over me. My eyeballs still hurt from not blinking the whole time. I'm still covered in goosebumps as I write this. So, now the sickle thing is lying out there and I'm in here like the big wuss I am, reading one of my favorite forums. Now I'm gonna have a beer (or 3) and reflect on why I do the things I do.
I know, but it is a nice thought. nm
Nice to meet ya!
From the Cape May area on the bay. Are you that far south? - Deena
Good way to put it :-) I say nice guy!

Sounds nice. sm
I'm ready to rescue a kitty now after we had to put our beautiful cat to sleep but my roommate is not ready yet. So I understand where you both are coming from. I don't know the solution. If you do decide to wait though, I'm sure there will be another very deserving dog who needs a good home like yours.
Your post was very nice
I also have a Spaz who ducks everytime you try to pet him. He's getting better as he gets older - he's a little over a year old now - but after having a cat (now deceased) who was such a cuddle bug, it's like a slap in the face. I'll try to upload his picture. His name is Tripp and this was when he was a baby. He's now 14 pounds!
Sounds nice. sm
I really love my Prius.
Mine is very nice. She gives
us plenty of space though. She accepts my limitations. I have no doubt she would prefer I had 2 or more kids and we lived in her same town and came to all the birthday parties and all, but it was never my thing to be around all that and she has never been critical. As long as I love her son and he loves me, I guess she's okay with me.
We visit her when we can, and I remind DH to call her, try to help out financially when we can.
She's a very good MIL.
Hello, how are you, nice weather - that's it.

Thanks all for the nice comments. Yes
Hayseed, he is a boxer. His name is Dempsey. He is the only thing keeping me sane lately LOL.
Thank you for your nice post.

Thanks for all of the nice responses!
I have really no major medical problems with diabetes or hypertension. I am lucky in that sense. I just feel like I got started off on the wrong foot by being so heavy. I feel like I am doing something cruel to my baby. I have major issues with my weight and it is so hard right now, especially being pregnant. I guess I just need to try to work on it but it has been like this for years and I just don't see how I am going to change it overnight. But I really do appreciate all of the responses and I will keep everyone updated! Thank you all! It has meant a lot to me!
Nice picture! Thanks.
Cute doggy. I remember snow ...
We've gotten about 2 inches of rain, and I'm ecstatic for that ... but Bear is not so happy about getting wet. Looks like a big black bear, has webbed toes, and doesn't like to go out in the rain. What a goof.
