Well of course I wasn't talking about YOU! It's those other women. The ones you don't like. You know the ones. CS, I hate to disappoint you, but I'm one of those women that the OTHERS don't like...5 ft. 4 inches tall, never weighed over 100 lbs until last year, except when preggers....lost all my pregna
Glad I read all the way through before commenting, so that I know you are just withdrawing, and not totally leaving...that means I can spare you the big sister rant/lecture that I was writing in my head. Keep me posted on how things are going, and what you're doing. You have my email and my snail mail.....and I'll send you my phone number as well. Take care, and enjoy the family time....but don't be a stranger!!

1/ abortion should remain a womans' right Absolutely, positively 100% YES. It's not something I would ever choose for myself, but I will firmly support the law of our land. 2/ war is wrong regardless of the circumstances Morally, I'd say yes....but realistically.....I'm on the fence. 3/ prison is the best solution for the rehabilitation of career criminals I don't know that there i
I started out allowing comments by anyone, but after a couple of nasty encounters with the anonymous hit and run types, I now only allow registered users to comment on my blog. If you are reading what I write, and you have a comment to make, fine, but let me know who you are when you make it.
Dave, I know you read my blog.......I love you, and I cannot wait to see you again. Seeing you come up that concourse towards me, knowing that you're not going to have to turn around and leave again anytime soon...well, it's going to be awesome. I think I'm going to be laughing and crying at the same time - laughing because it
I don't use my real name on my blog. Does that make me a fake? I don't discuss my full home situation? Does that make me a fake? I hope people don't see it as I am. If you do, so be it. I have a great deal of respect for alot of people here, and if I found out there was things they weren't telling me to save their privacy, I'd s
Make a list of all the attributes and responsibilities that are important in a first lady. Now cross out the least important. Next, cross out the second least important, etc. Which one do you wind up with last? For myself, poised or polished didn't cut it. I don't mean to discredit your opinion, I just want to put it in a differe
My hobbies would be reading, doing puzzles--both crossword and jigsaw--, scrapbooking, attending festivals of all sorts, and collecting teddy bears. And I need to get myself back into a decent exercise routine!!
One question.. Did you take vice president Cheney to task when he told his fellow politician to "Go F#$#k himself?" If you did, then you do have a point with Teresa. If you didn't, then you have just given another "lesson in hypocrisy". I think that both remarks were inappropriate, but I don't believe t
Stress has earned a bad reputation. It's really a God-given response that triggers your body for fight or flight. It can spur you into action, saving your life in an emergency. But when feelings of stress linger or are triggered for little reason, they can deplete your body's resources. They can make you susceptible to heart disease, high blood pressure, even the
Just checking in after a brief "JU vacation," and wanted to let you know that my addy will be on it's way to you in a few minutes. DH and I used to write letters to each other all the time when we lived 1800 miles apart, even though we were talking online for hours every day, and emailing. The handwritten letters are just so much more personal and special...and we both have sav
Do you remember the carefree feeling you had as a child going off to summer camp? You can recapture that same sense of anticipation and fun as an adult and strengthen your marriage at the same time. Marriage retreats and seminars provide a relaxed environment away from the routines and responsibilities of daily life. They're natural settings in which to spe
My mother wanted to name me Parthena, and call me Par....can you IMAGINE??? Thank God my father had better sense! And then there was a girl on the teen softball team my ex coached, named Seventy Six....born in, you guessed it, 1976......@@ A buddy of mine swore that he went to high school with twins named lemonjello an
Good for her. Apparently this reporter has repeatedly misquoted her, and Mrs. Heinz finally fought back. In this instance, the tape of her remarks clearly shows that she DID say "unAmerican," yet when he asked her what she meant by that, she repeatedly denied having said it, and THEN told him to shove i
Thank God for a person with guts enough to say what she thinks. Reporters are just bully goons at times and they need someone to talk back. If she was saying what she thinks, why was she so quick to back off the fact she said "unAmerican"....when she repeatedly said that she didn't use that word, she wa
And yes, going through the concerns with the baby still on the way (everything's looking very good at the moment, folks), I can see why that would anger and infuriate people on these blogs. Glad to hear that things are looking good in your situation, and sorry that you had any worries over the comments
Forgiveness is a wonderful thing, and yet, much too often we allow our stubbornness to keep us burdened with guilt, struggling in our marriages, and feeling inadequate. The good news is that no one needs to live that way. When we ask for forgiveness from God and those we have hurt or offended, we turn the tables on guilt and shame. A rush of joy, peace, and
Oh my...this SO totally changes my impression of you, CS!Why is that? Not sure why...it's just not the sort of thing I would have pictured you doing. Maybe I'll get of
The name of the hosptial where the baby was would have been nice too, although I should have gone about that a different way. I should have said that I wanted to send flowers...I wonder what the response would have been then?! Well, I asked Ashlee to get their permission to give me their address so I
In order to build intimacy in marriage, it's necessary to share things that touch your heart and affect you emotionally or spiritually. Don't take it for granted that your spouse knows all about you. If there's a song, quote, book, or movie that means a lot to you, share it. Then tell your spouse why it's signficant to you and how it makes you feel or what it makes
5. I have a baby picture of myself sitting on the steps of the Parthenon (this was taken while my mother dragged my brothers and me around the Mediterranean while my dad was stationed on an aircraft carrier during the Viet Nam war). That is SO cool! <img src="../images/smiles/smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN
Voyage, travel and change of place impart vigor. Think for a moment about those places you and your mate would most like to see and map a plan to go there. Another state? Another nation? Why live like a hamster on a wheel, running in the same rut every day to the same places at the same times? Take time out! Establish a timetable for embarking on your personal ad
So the winning suggestion for my 100th Article came from Poetmom. Yeah! I won, I won! I'll be back to read the list a little later, but right now my youngest daughter is virtually pushing me off the chair so she can use the computer! <
