Okay...no money is a challenge considering a date. Do you have someone in mind or are you just starting to plan a date? This an important, so before I can spend the time brain storming, you need to give me a better idea. Don't avoid my question as a bother because i do have great ideas if given the answwer.

I have been told tat if you put a safety pin somewhere on the iside seam(to hide it) the metal will remove the static...worth a try anyways.

Personally speaking in 50 years i will be in mu 90's, with the family health history, I'm thinking I just might not quite make the 50 year mark, but I guarantee 2012 is just another day that will pass just like the others.

Rick....sadly the famous words..."I think there for I am" really stand true in life. If you think you can't do something then it becomes real. Is there no way that you can set small goals to perfect one thing at a time with your job? Can it be a challenge rather than something you allow to beat you up. I am a single mom with two boys that don't appreciate anything I do no matter how much effort i put out to keep our heads above water. I know what it's like not to feel appreciated. About the car...so what if it's twenty years old...you could be riding a bike instead, you already have more than some people have. I'm 42 and still pay another mans mortgage, I could look at my job and feel I could have been more but instead I learned to like what I do and do it well. I have nothing really but the pride in who I am in life. The truth is that it's not what you have in life, it's how you went about getting it that makes you a good person. I know what you are saying about feeling like the future is bleak but it's always bleaker for someone else. There is much love for you on this sight and I'm glad you feel safe in reaching out to your friends. Thank you for letting me have the honour of holding you up. Much love and a long hug...Lora

Thats an impossible question because depending on the snow... The west coast here, the snow is very wet and heavy therefor holding much more water than the colder dryer climate with dryer wispy snow.

You walk away and know that someone better is in the future...to have this one now just means he/she woud have stood in the way of the right one.

I have to say once we discovered what sex was and that these extremeties were for much more than ridding the body of waste, the world began to grow.

Let us not judge as no one has any idea the things we are capable of doing until in a position like that.We have no right to point and say what is right and wrong. I don't think it was great what they did, it was a very poor choice but while we sit at home in peace in our warm , safe , comfortable homes, we don't have to experience the daily hell these men have been placed under nor can we ever imagine the monstrocities they see every day.

Why would your child be denying you to see your grandchild? I do think if you accet that maybe there is some friction that maybe your child feels you have caused and try to do something to fix that, maybe things will change. Be prepared to have to work at fixing things. To soften the hard feelings, trying to defend yourself will just escalate the problems so acceptance is the best way to handle it no matter what you think. I hope things can be fixed. 

I have heard of doge having hormones out of whack that will cause itchy irritated skin.
