My youngest little guy is 3. He has the sweetest little face. One that makes you want to just smooch him up. He has an adorable voice and can make the most pathetic sad face you have ever seen. He can melt me in an instant with a hug, kiss or "I love you mommy". But boy can he be a stinker! I think my first child spoiled me. He rarely ever climbed on an

Outraged, you sound like you are the one who needs to grow up. If you are secure with yourself the way you are, you shouldn't be so hostile. Noone calls fat people curvy. A lot of average girls are called curvy. Overweight in the least = fat. If you are outraged about peoples' attitudes toward women with your body type, don't you think it a bit hypocritical to throw around terms like "fat" "cow" and "Fat Women Are Ugly Slappers"? I think

Julian, why don't you move to Europe? There are plenty here that think we have a responsible government. Plenty of people that think that social programs are needed but not in their current form. Plenty of Republicans that believe that people can take better care of themselves than the government can but that the government is still needed to oversee things. Julian, you again try to make it sound as if our government is giving money to the wealthy.

Bed time, I so look forward to it some days. Those days when the 3yr old has whined and destroyed all day long. Those days when the 7yr old is constanly doing the "look at this" "I want to show you something" routine. I hold on until the blissful quiet of bed time. The last couple of nights have been a total disappointment. The 7yr old has another loose t

I like the ladies that wear hats too. I have never owned a hat but for some reason think I will be into hats when I get to be a granny. I will never stop wearing makeup! I will have my hair in any style I fancy regardless of people saying "That is too young of a style for a woman her age." I will refuse to be the old lady that waits around to be driven everywhere. I'll be driving for as long as I am physically and mentally able! In other words, I

You guys seem to get my idea. My basic desire is to revamp the system to discourage both abuse due to lack of need and abuse due to buying non essential products (like Poestmom said, junk food). Shades, I agree that the stores would probably require too much investment. Thanks for the constructive input. KarmaGirl, the old system is definitely my inspiration. People didn't like not having a choice but it did provide them with what

Poetmom, that is the reaction that people would ideally have. You are obviously secure rather than defensive about your beliefs. People who are secure don't tend to lash out but try to learn from things that oppose what they already feel or believe. Unfortunately a lot of people get defensive and angry whenever anyone poses questions about the validity of their religion. Capt, thanks! I always a

I think a big part of this issue is protecting people from having negative stuff pop up about them when someone goes on google and types in their name. You can certainly get your point across without naming names. You can link to the offending blog. You maintain your freedom to express your feelings. You just have to do it in a reasonable manner. I certainly don't see that as too much to ask.

I can think of one thing but it shouldn't be done in the presence of your toddlers I have a hard time getting exercise in also. Do you have any neighbors that you can take a brisk walk with? I have a neighbor that walks really fast her average walk is 3-4miles at a time. My hubby watches the kids and we head out for a walk whenever we can. It goes by fast because we talk the

I like to have something in my life that gives me a sense of accomplishment. Laundry doesn't do it since laundry is never done! I can relate to what you are saying Dharma. I can also relate to that particular interest. I served as a juror on a murder trial and found it quite fascinating.

dharma and NickyG, I'm with you gals. There is a difference between love and like. There is a difference between dislike and hate. You can feel dislike without feeling hate or malice. Maybe that is too subtle for you but it is pretty blatant to me. Also, for the record, I don't share JeremyG's feelings but I do see a difference between him saying he doesn't like a group as opposed to him hating them.

Kupe, I hope that was sarcasm I only know Ron from The Sureal Life. He reminds me a bit of a very perverted Danny Devito so I could definitely see him as a stand up comedian.

Boy Julian, you sure pegged me- greedy, ego-oriented, flippant, that's me all over Thanks for coming to my defense KharmaGirl. Julian, you say you don't mean to be preachy or criticize me as a person but you go right ahead and do exactly that. You don't know anything about me. Your conclusion about me would make anyone w

I am a total Carboholic but you are right King, couple of weeks into it I stopped having the cravings. The only thing I don't feel it is worth giving up is coffee. You are right again that being consistent is key. If you make even the smallest change like not using mayo or using fat free dressings and you do it consistently, you will see results. Thanks for the encouragement!

Phantom, blend of porn and prejudice Love it! Urban, you should have titled it "I don't like Jeremys" since he said in his article that he doesn't judge people prior to meeting them and you have never met JeremyG specifically right? Like Dharma pointed out my point from JeremyG's blog, not liking is different than Hating. People should be careful throwing the "H" word a
