at my front door but when he had a mouse in the house and could hear it scratching, my cat hightailed it out of the room as fast as possible. Now that is the true meaning of "scardy cat". LOL!

mine LOVES coconut lime verbena from BABW. LOVES it
it's the smell -- just smells "clean" plus i think it reminds him of me ... weirdly, even my teen sons say it smells nice and clean and they like it too! smells bring about different calms in people... no way should you worry.
We buy presents for kids in a community

Same here, but toss in all the unwrapped Christmas presents still

My father-in-law sends my daughter presents, calls her, etc. BUT
pretty much ignores my son. My son is 16 and my daughter is 8. They are both his grandchildren. He will send a gift to my son on his birthday, for Christmas, etc. same as he does with my daughter. But the presents are usually not equal in price. Then he will call and talk to my daughter and not ask to speak to my son or even ask about my son. He will send postcards when he is on vacation and address them to my daughter with my son's name squeezes in as an after thought out to the side. When he is in town visiting his mother and sister, he will bring my daughter little gifts and call and ask to see her, but usually never asks to see my son.
I don't have a very friendly relationship with my FIL as I divorced his son and the divorce was not an amicable one. However, when my son was little and I was still married, my FIL was very close with my son and treated him similarly to the way he treats my daugther now. It seems as my son has gotten older, my FIL has simply decided he doesn't count anymore. I think some of this has to do with my son being a teenager with a smart mouth who has been very vocal about the divorce, my ex, and his grandpa. My son doesn't get along with his father and he took my side in the divorce.
I really, really, REALLY want to tell my FIL off, but then he'll stop having any contact with my daughter and she's too young to understand everything that's going on. She loves him to pieces, but I'm also afraid that the same thing will happen with her as it did my son -- as she gets older and starts to figure things out and understand and become more opinionated, my FIL my just shut her out too.
It is really just a crappy thing my FIL is doing. If I confront him about he'll just feign innocence and act like he didn't realize he was treating them differently. So maybe my anger is just fruitless anyway.
Leave some open boxes of baking soda inside and maybe search for carbon filters to leave in there,

Oh, and he SAYS he loves her dog.
Muslims aren't supposed to have dog saliva touch them. Curiously, he LOVES the dog but I have seen him raise his LEG to the dog and the dog cower. Psycho wacko freak job.
My dad has one. He loves it and so
do I. Just couldn't afford one myself.
The only man I know who loves being
He says he enjoys it..it is peaceful and quiet...when the wife and her kids and grandkids come home it is like WWF. Chaos, screaming, yelling, fighting. No wonder the boy drinks!

Oh, I had those hugs and loves and all
in earlier years, the works but you would be totally surprised what a chunk of money can do to a person. I never would have thought in a million years and I did instill good values in the kids and never for 1 minute have thought I have failed. I would bite my tongue off before I spoke to a parent of mine like this 1 did about my getting the money. You hear about families fighting in the courts about property left to 1 and not the other and money and things like that- it is not unusual and even though he got over $50,000.00 from this family member, he thought he should have the rest of what was in the bank which I got. It can happen. Oh, by the way, raised with stepfather that both seemed to be pretty close to. I know this sounds harsh but I will not take abuse from him, from my husband or any other person. His father did not give 1 red cent for his upbringing- I did that all. Oh, this son is married so he has his wifes family and that is all he thinks he needs anyway. I do not lose any sleep over this. Never a pushover here and do not intend to start now.
Ditto! 27+ yrs together and he still says he loves me EVERY day, AND thanks me

Loves of my life are
the 2 male cats my hubby brought home from Wal-Mart, some guy had them outside. Guy said found beside road, who knows and really how cares. They are wonderful, gorgeous brothers, long coats, black and white and I love being able to stroke them with 1 hand while still working (do a lot of editing so can do this). I had them fixed at an early age and believe in that but still will feed any stray that comes in my yard or I see out anywhere.
My cat loves cantaloupe
She goes crazy if she even smells it when we open the refrigerator.
My 19 y.o. daughter loves him. nm

You find out what the kid loves the best
and that is what you take away. I have 2 children, both grown. Whereas 1 thing would work with 1 (taking switching and YES, I do believe in them), the other 1 would do anything to not have a switching. So 1 kid did not want to stay grounded and the other did not want the switches so that is exactly what they got. You have to take away anything that pleases them the most. I would go with the thing she likes the least which here appears to be the in school suspension (and it would not stop just at school, punishment should continue at home as well.) You say think barbaric? I went to a very big school as teenager, no fights, no cussing, no acting out- you know something? I would almost guarantee that all got switchings/belts/swattings, or what I would call almost down home beatings and everyone that I knew and grew up with knew how to get along, the majority turned out well, prosperous, good humans. We did not suffer, instead I am thankful for the times I was punished. That is what has gone very wrong with the kids now. They are so out of control. I would never think about talking back to an adult, teacher, parent or otherwise. I had total respect and still do for my elders.
My DD loves hers. Interesting. nm

I get them all the time...everyone loves them

I understand that your dog loves you,
but your dog is a pit bull and they can attack spontaneously whether they are provoked or not. There is no way to predict it. Why risk someone's life?
I don't have any dogs because my husband is allergic to them, but I would absolutely love to have one because I understand they can provide that kind of unconditional love, and frankly, we all need that! I would never, however, choose a breed that is known to be unpredictable and dangerous and could maim or kill someone I love or a stranger walking down the street were I too slow to close the door or forget to close a gait securely and an accident occur.
There are lots of breeds that demonstrate the kind of dedication and love that you describe. My mom has a mixed dog (Pyrenees/St. Bernard) who is a genuine companion to her. She is obedient and trustworthy and gentle. You can get a dog who genuinely loves you who is not a pit bull. I truly hope you never encounter a time when your dog misconstrues your actions and you trigger some instinct that tells her she is in danger, or that you are in danger from another person. Tragedy could strike so quickly.
When a man loves a woman got
me going, as well as Ghost and Simon Birch, believe it or not. DH thought I was crazy.
Very cool! I bet he loves it! (nm)
My daughter loves
the swaddle blankets that have Velcro for keeping in place when you wrap them up.
Since you are not supposed to have them wear coats in the car seats, she lays that in (is pretty thin, buckles the baby up, and then wraps it around (over the buckles). He looks like a little hot dog when she is done. :)
She has also been using it in bed at night. They say not to cover babies up anymore, but his little hands were cold and was not sleeping well. She swaddled him in one of those blankets, and he slept so much better! Being so young he could not move enough to get it unhooked or get it over his face. He will be 2 weeks old tomorrow. :)
My 14-year-old son loves to read too...his SM
favorites are:
Harry Potter series
Eragon series
Lord of the Ring series
Chronicles of Narnia
Series of Unfortunate Events
Alex Rider series
Left Behind Series
...there are many other series, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

be happy he is in her life and loves her

Friends and Everybody Loves Raymond
Repeats of Raymond still make me laugh!
I don't either. If she loves your brother, that means she SM
should love you too, or, at the very least, respect the love you have for one other. She doesn't seem very loving.
My stepdaughter just got booted out of house by my stepson DH bought for the two of them by his new girlfriend. Doesn't exactly sound like love.
If you love man, you must love family or at least try to get along.
Sorry you had a bad time. Again, I don't understand this behavior. Life is easier when all get along and life is too darn short.
My cat LOVES vanilla pudding
He's only had it a couple times when I had to give him medicine, but the second he sees that little cup he goes crazy!
I just love when people kid about who a dog loves most! SM
God love em, what they bring to our lives is just not adequately said. You gotta feel it. He is lucky to have you!
My 9 y/o daughter LOVES Ace of Cakes
I don't think it's weird though. I also really like The Deadliest Catch.
I must be the only one who LOVES driving at night.
When I was a kid, I did a lot of long-distance driving with my dad, and we were on the road a lot at night. I always loved that. It seemed so cool to be out on the roads at night when most of the world was tucked into their houses. It always seemed like an adventure. And then, I'm an avid backpacker and have been known to solo. I love the woods at night and the sounds of owls. It's lovely at night when it's quiet and dark.
Within the last 30 minutes I walked in the door following a 3-hour ride, mostly on the PA turnpike. It's not late, but the days are short now. I purposely left as the sun was going down, because I love watching the pinks and oranges of sunset. The moon is full tonight, and I saw the moon rise tonight, too. Che bella luna! It was just beautiful.
I have a dependable car, and if I were in trouble, I know basic mechanics, have a cell phone and AAA. I also know that most people are good people, and so that's how I choose to live my life ... counting on the good and appreciating the beautiful things. It makes me happy, and I'm well aware that the time is approaching when my eyesight, joints and muscles might not allow me to enjoy the simple things like driving at night or setting up my tent along a trail somewhere. So I'm doing it while I can!
My boxer pup just loves the snow as
well; he is the first boxer I have had that I actually have to make come in the house. He runs and slides he buries his head in it, eats it, just has a gay old time. My golden who just died about 8-9 weeks ago loved snow as well, he would dive in and make doggie snow angels. :-)
My husband loves 'Impossible Pie.' (sm)
It's WICKED easy to make and it's right on the box of Bisquick.
How sweet, my DS loves to cook as well. nm

My teenage son loves giftcards for
game stores. He loves PlayStation, etc. and he always wants a new game. I get him a card and he can go pick out what he wants.
DITTO... WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN
Andy Garcia was AWESOME in this movie. I watch every time it is on!
again, it seems one either loves it or has great distaste for it.

Terrible, but my husband loves it...
And it looks pretty nasty, too!
I cut up a bunch of red potatoes (skin on) to fill the crock pot about 3/4 full, along with one large onion. Then cut up 1# of bacon and 1# of whatever sausage sounds good that day--I prefer spicy italian. Add a little water and cook on low all day. About an hour before dinner time, I take all of the grease off the top of it and get rid of it with a ladle--add 1 pint half and half--salt and pepper to taste. Sometimes I add corn, too. Like I said, it is like trying to cause a massive coronary, but great when it is really cold out!

Misery Loves Company
Who has rubbed your nose in it that is now effected by the economic crisis?
For me...
Investment broker - not much call for stocks these days
Mortgage broker - self-explanatory
Realtor - again.....
All of these people were filthy rich and looked down on me, the lowly transcriptionist, who worked at home, who "really did not work", and look at them now.
I am the richest woman I know...which is not saying much.
My cat loves the Animal Channel.
I swear she does. She is sitting on my desk watching someone fish, catching Marlin, as I am typing this. I have noticed with other Animal Channel episodes she will watch. There is now a bunny going across the street, then back again and she follows her head with the bunny running. No, I am not crazy. My kitty actually does this. Anyone else?
I'd like to know too, mine loves mac and cheese
my little chiuaha gobbles up the M and C!
If you love your daughter and she loves
you, this will be solved. But, I would not change the way I am. I would try to talk it over with her. Are there specific problems that cause this estrangement?
I mean, your daughter is no teenager anymore that her behaviour could be excused.
There are children who will always see in the mother first of all 'the mother' and not 'the friend'. And sometimes this is caused because the mother always acts as a mother toward her children.
I think your daughter should mellow down and respect you as her mother and show her love for you, same with you. There has to be a way to achieve this, communicate and compromise.....
Sounds like Marie on Everybody Loves Raymond. nm
Marie is probably a lot nicer though.
Need information about my furry loves, my cats
I have heard of dander but do not know if this is what is going on with my big boy. He seems to have quite a bit of large flaky material coming off his rump. It is not all over his body. He has loads of fur and when I got him dematted last time, the groomer suggested I put olive oil in his food or some cream for his skin. Did the olive oil and still has these areas. Does dander sometimes appear like that, just in certain spots or would it be an all over problem? Thanks.
weird, mine loves to chew on
plastic bags from the supermarket- I didn't know if it was the sound or what, but they get really gross and slobbery. She also likes to lick photgraphs- I left one out once and she licked it until the picture was gone.
So sad...but thanks for this. I have a small dog who loves ANY kind of fruit
s
My 8-year-old girl loves Webkinz!
I like to help her decorate her room and make smoothies/sandwiches for her chihuahua. It's really fun. We have two other girls we know that are on her friends list. You can send little gifts and messages. It's safe too.
One of our dogs loves all fruits, especially bananas....sm
, watermelon and cantaloupe. She literally sits in the kitchen when you're cutting the latter 2 and cries until she gets some.
My son got a memory foam top for his matress and loves it. nm
