welcome! Glad to see you decided to write..i will be anticipating the next one! I heard through the rumour mill about you moving out, moving in with G'parents etc...they just left out the why. Everything was sanitized..."Oh, well, I guess she needed something new. She's growing up....." It's interesting to realize just how much people leave out when they want something to look a certain way.....

Whenever your kids are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to God's kids. After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. The first thing he said was: "Don't". "Don't what?" Adam replied. "Don't eat the forbidden fruit." God said. "Forbidden fruit? We got forbidden fruit? Hey, Ev

but now my mom will think she has to remember everything for me. she already thinks i'm a space cadet. Mom does not think you are a space cadet. And you already knew that she has to do all the worrying for the family....why shouldn't she worry about remembering everything too? PS I don't thin

I didn't see that ad during the game, but I'm glad you posted it here. I think they did a tasteful job. Yeah, they had the ad in there, but it wasn't ostentatious.... I went to Seaworld once before on thier dime....I'll have to take the opportunity again....

When Hyperborean Wanderer and I were newlyweds, one of the things that drove him nuts, was my absentmindedness. I frequently locked myself out of the house and out of my car. I would forget what I was doing and what I was supposed to do. (Although I was plauged by the sense that I had forgotten something important) I was always running back into the house for my p

For those of you who watched the Fiesta Bowl on New Years Day, the girl who threw the football durring the halftime show and was then surprised by her husband from Iraq.....well, that was my best friend, Tresa McCormick. I was literally jumping up and down because I was so excited. I was probably just as happy as she was. We had been told that she would ge

our BX they carry Coach and Douney and Bourke purses and leather goods...the prices of which are ridiculous. Yeah, I out of the corner of my eye, I saw the perfect purse....until I saw the price tag. admittedly it was marked $30 less than the "real price" plus no tax, but still, I can't spend $60 on a

You made me get all weepy. I'm so sorry that you have missed so much. It hurts me to know that every time he does something cool...you have to hear about it second hand. The fact that you would have missed it even if you had just been at work here is beside the point. It is just unfair that you get the short end of the stick...you are off doing great and noble things and your reward is missing out on the things that other families take for granted

Spiritual Traveller....I understand the idea of looking inside to find Him (we were created by HIm so therefore we contain a bit of the divine simply because we are His) BUT I think it's important that we must look outside ourselves. How can we learn of sacrifice, love and compassion unless we learn to look outward ? The only problem with looking internally, is it doesn't afford the same opportunities to grow that come with focusing attention

In a recent article about religious zelots who are critical and judgemental of others, I realized that there needs to be a distinction made between those of faith and those who use thier faith to persecute and those who use it for the good of others. This sparked a few thoughts on the subject matter. So hang with me as I see where this leads..... I've been

Everyone,Thanks for the support. Danny...I think that is a great idea and for many separations it has worked...just not this time. But you have a good head on your shoulders...that will come in handy when you are a dad one day. Mamie, Thanks. He still asks when we can go to "grey house"...I think he misses you too.

Amen to this. I heartily agree with Angloesque on this one...I read this and thought it was cool when I was in high school too. I dreamed that i would be that kind of woman...until I grew up and realized that I really didn't want to base my self esteem and morality on what was fashionable. I'm worth more than that and i hope other woment realize that too.

One of the hardest things about being a parent is seeing your child hurting and not being able to do anything about it. Whether it is a fall that scraped their knees or a heartache that crushed their spirit, a parent can only do so much. After that, the feeling of helplessness is difficult to face. I just had a taste of what is to come as my children grow

daehaksang, I'm sorry that you feel so unhappy with the churches in your town. I think that you shouldn't give up your search though. There are many things we can learn from those around us. Mamie said it right when she pointed out that "people mess up religion". Don't let people get you down because ultimately that's not the important part....important truths will never be changed, regardless of people and thier reactions to it. Pantherch

That anger isn’t going to do anyone any good, being angry won’t help you get revenge on the people who made you angry. I told her that the only person she’s hurting with that anger is herself. I told her you gotta ask yourself, is this really worth getting angry about? Is this worth the stress you’re putting yourself through? Is

I decided a few months ago to start reading a scripture every night with my son. We also memorize one scripture every month as part of our daily devotionals. This month was from the Doctrine and Covenants "Behold, mine house is a house of order, saith the Lord God and not a house of confusion." (I chose it as part of my New Year's resolution
