Thanks for posting that Angel, especially the part about not hitting your kids. I remember my mom hitting us, slapping us, and pulling our hair, and all I focused on was fear of her, not the lesson she was supposedly trying to teach us. Because of that, I will not hit my daughter but talk to...

Awesome....She must have double-jointed everything.

Shoulder length, lightly layered thick brown hair with a touch of red, soft curls; MUST blow dry if I don't want to look like Harpo Marx.

Exercising will help too, especially if it puts on muscle. Muscle uses more calories than fat; the higher your ratio of muscle to fat, even if you keep your body weight the same, the more calories you will burn, and the leaner you will look. DHB made a good point; no matter what you eat...

There's no avoiding an occasional disagreement now and then. No matter how much you love someone, you are different people and are not going to agree on everything all the time. Besides, it's good to have the sense of self to be able to develop your own opinions and defend them. If there is...

I agree with Endymion, coffee is good for an icebreaker. Take her somewhere comfy and casual where y'all can talk and she won't feel threatened, and it's easy for either of you to end the date early if things don't go well. But I hope they will!

Excellent advice. With one exception: I met my husband at work. BUT he wasn't my superior, nor I his. At my former job, the married, multi-billionaire owner had an affair with the receptionist/secretary. She ended up with a couple of his kids and a very nice child support settlement...

Nancy, I had a black eye as a baby. I climbed out of my crib when I was 9 months old and got a whopping shiner! Everyone in the family had their picture taken with me, but my mom wouldn't take me out of the house until it was gone. I guess she didn't want to get reported to CPS!

Oops! Heath was quicker than me.

The only thing that works for me is not to drink in the first place. If you find a sure fire cure, you'd better patent it! You'll make a fortune. There have been times I would have been willing to clean out my bank account for such a cure. However, alcohol is very dehydrating and much of...

I admit to not explaining myself well. I have been in Washington D.C. for work for the past week. They came up for the weekend to visit, then went back home. I have to stay at least another couple of days, maybe until the end of the week until my job is finished. That is why I didn't get to...

FreeWoman, it happens to me with clothes. I will go looking for something in particular and can't find it, or can't find it in my size, or in a color I like. Then when I'm shopping for something else, there it is! When that happens, I just go ahead and buy it if I can. I'm small but curvy...

I'm vegetarian, and for whatever reason, my first husband and I decided to go out and eat a steak on our anniversary. My stomach hurt so much for days, I felt like I'd eaten a gallon of lard! (On second thought, it may have been the reminder of another year wasted on that jerk that made me...

If you could be any animal (other than human), what would it be and why?

SmiLe ImL, I admit that I am down because my family left and I am alone here again now and will not see them again for several days, and miss them. But my little girl just called and their plane has landed safely, so at least I know they are safe.

Hmmmm...maybe the guys don't want to admit they're not invincible. :giggle: I was hit by a car when I was 6 and fractured my skull in two places. My sister always says that it explains a lot. The next year, I fell at school on a mud scraper (you know, to scrape mud off shoes), and got a...

I admit to being concerned about Sweetheart. What happened last night?

Thanks CutePommie! I admit I feel better already! :hug:

I admit that I'm in D.C. for work and my family just left after coming to visit for the weekend, and now I'm feeling down in the dumps. :cry:

My marriage license hasn't expired yet.
