Fabric softener makes towels softer, yes, but it also makes them less absorbent. sm
Which is, after all, the function of a towel, absorbency. :-)
Travel, travel and more travel
years ago took my children on really nice vacations, Mexico, Carribean, Greece and the like- now they are out and gone I travel by myself on tour groups, last year Alaska, this year another fab trip. My hubs and I go to Las Vegas a couple of times a year and then we go visit Mickey Mouse sometimes but I have the traveling bug more than he does.
When you travel...
prefer to stay at a hotel or with friends or relatives? I personally, as well as my immediate family, prefer to stay in a hotel. You can just do what you want to do. I have a relative who insists that she stay at my house and I just can't understand it. I wonder if I'm strange or if she is strange.

I saw the same thing, on a travel ad
busses?? This is a well known agency.
I'm married, but I travel alone often.
My DH and I have different ideas about what is fun. After a few years of trying to make joint vacations work, trying to compromise, and trying to love what the other one loves, we've decided that separate trips are better for us. Even our honeymoon was a disaster! LOL I'm the outdoors type, and would rather camp and backpack, and he's a serious track and field competitor who thinks that a great vacation is a week of running in competitions. We both like history and museums, so what we do is sprinkle weekend getaways here and there in our lives. But he couldn't do a week in the woods with me, and I can't stand sitting next to the track waiting for him to run.
I've done all sorts of week-long trips by myself, and I highly recommend it. The first time you do it, you might feel a little nervous, but gradually, as you relax and enjoy yourself, your confidence builds up. I happen to travel without groups, but my mom has been widowed since 1983 and has done lots and lots of guided trips around the world. She loves traveling that way. Pays one price and everything is planned. She meets new friends and sees wonderful places.
Get out and see the world! You'll love it! And if anyone wants to share info about Ireland, I'd love to hear it. My son is planning a "tramping" trip to Ireland, backpacking and staying at hostels.
Travel the world
Although, I would have to win the lottery for that! I'd probably take out every loan I could and run up the credit cards. I've been to France and NYC (both of which I absolutely loved!) I would love to see Italy and Greece. If I absolutely could not get $ for that, I would volunteer at animal shelters/rescues and volunteer with kids, maybe with Big Brothers, Big Sisters. I've had some scares with health myself and I have thought about it, unfortunately. I would just try to be as happy as possible! I wish you and your SIL the best.
My daughter and I both travel alone
she likes to go to Cancun (we had traveled there years ago when she was much younger) and I have traveled the past few years (plan to this year also) to places like out west and Alaska. I used to travel in the 80s and 90s all the time, just me and my 2 kids out of the country to the carribean (spelling?), Mexico, even to Greece. I absolutely would never let being afraid keep me from going.
And I don’t think it is dangerous just to travel, sm
If I had waited for a Starbuck I might never had a trip before. Believe it or not, never remember seeing 1 anywhere I traveled. Your response is strange.
Hubby is a travel agent...sm
We have been to many all inclusives. For us, we go with a big group of friends every year on vacation, and we will always do AI. The best yet was Barcelo Tropical in Puerto Juarez. It is about 25 minutes away from Playa Del Carmen and 1 hour from Cancun. You never have to leave the resort. The food is EXCELLENT!!!! This place is amazing. Check it out on trip advisor. Lots of places (in Mexico is all I know) are AI and NOT worth it, meaning the food sucks, drinks are watered down, no activities. You have to be careful because you don't want to spend the $$ on an AI and then have to go out to eat.
Definitely NOT work! Be with family, travel if possible. Try

Same here - retire, hop in an RV, travel the states!

Didnt say that! I said if she's uneasy with travel to
the US? Mexico will still be thre (unfortunately), so just wait and go when the the crime rate drops a little bit. We Americans have had great big TARGETS on our backs for a long time now, or havent you noticed? So the statistics might not be on an American tourist's side there right now. And if I'm going to be the victim of a crime, I'd rather it were here than in
Mexico. Sure wouldn't want to end up in one of their jails, or even in one of their hospitals.
I think, though, that the main thing that was meant by the gov't. announcement was that college kids shouldn't be going down there at this particular time, especially the girls. Not a very good place to be naiive and inebriated, even in the best of times.
Travel Agent... off original topic
Always looking for a new career away from MT...Since your DH is travel agent, would you recommend it? Can you make a good living at it? How to get started? Have thought of this in the past, but never really knew how to go about it. My DH and I love to travel and he will be retired in a few years, so a career change may do us both good. Thanks for any info. 
Sounds good to me. I am going to get in that car and go or go with a travel group. Life is too
short to wait around on other people for whatever. Probably plenty of people to talk to. I just got out of the habit of going alone actually and it is time to get back into it. Sometimes I agree you go with people and spend more time worrying if they like where you wanted to go than doing what you want. Yep I am going to go for it.
Ask the Department Stores that sell them. They often have travel sizes. NM

This is disgusting.
Keep in mind that HPV is not the only way to get this cancer. From the National Cancer Institute:
Incidence of cervical (uterine cervix) cancer in the United States in 2007: New cases: 11,150.
This is the epidemic that we have to vaccinate our young girls for?? :(
This is so disgusting...sm
The Westboro Baptist Church that protests at soldiers' funerals is planning to protest at a funeral tomorrow for one of the VT students. I don't know if my link will work, but there is a whole page on The Smoking Gun.

Oh that's disgusting...
There's not enough Clorox Cleanup in the WORLD to get rid of those germs...sick! I despise cats, they're a waste of space. And this cat has peed on your kitchen counters...where you prepare food for your family...more than once? It's making my stomach turn just thinking about a cat being ON the kitchen counters, much less urinating on them...gross, gross, gross!
That's as disgusting as You Are What You Eat
I've got to say I think this is worse. All of it looks disgusting and yes, appropriately titled. I started watching You Are What You Eat about a year ago (seen every episode) and I bought her book. Really makes you want to be a vegetarian. Even though I don't eat that, it's still time for me to lose weight
What is disgusting about the
Duggar family? They are amazing. Completely debt-free and do not rely on the government, kids have morals, are respectful and are kind to one another, mom and dad spend oodles of time with their kids and treasure each and every one of them. Maybe strange in this day and age, but disgusting, no.
I think it is disgusting
the owners allow these (and probably are the ones promoting) tip jars. It's pathetic.
will high gas prices affect your spring/summer travel
j/c. I wanted to go to the beach this year but I don't think we will now. 
I keep a little travel pack in my purse and one in the glove box..bought them at Wal Mart..nm

Nothing disgusting or wrong
While I do agree that the above poster has every right to make up what rules she wants followed in her house and feel this should be respected by her children, I don't think there is anything wrong with 2 consenting adults having sex married or not. It's not the 1920s anymore, and woman can have and enjoy sex just as much as man can and shouldn't be called immoral for it. If a man or woman wants to have consensual sex, that doesn't make them bad or lesser or a human being, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it as long as they are safe. It is up to them and not for anyone else to judge. Sex is quite natural. It's not some big evil thing to be ashamed of. You do what is right for you, and other people will do what is right for them! I just don't understand why the majority of people are so worried and so quick to jump to conclusions about what other people do
As far as girls having a lot of partners because they start early, that's not necessarily the case either. I started having sex when I was 16, and I'm still with the same man 15 years later. If that makes me immoral in anyone's eyes, I'm quite sure I won't lose any sleep tonight.
absolutely disgusting.......sm
and that's putting it mildly....sounds like someone with no heart whatsoever and whose life is *immaculate*.....sorry, ain't happenin.....we all have stories.....sad ones at that....
AND we all have probably come a VERY long way from our own beginnings too......*said humbly and thankfully*
Have a nice day!
What do they show that so disgusting?
Is it just like an entertainment tabloid show?
Have you ever seen it? All of those shows are just disgusting.
It's very vile. Which is why I only watch t.v. 0.00001% of my time. There isn't anything good on t.v. anymore - or good for you. I have 3 young children and the only safe channel it seems is the food network!

Pugman's postt is downright disgusting,
telling us that she leaves the bathroom door open when she 'does her business and pees' and her dogs all jumping over her!
Eeeewwww! But it seems that you find this not extraordinaire, obviously you do the same.

No fast food. Disgusting. Only locally owned restaurants.

this makes me sad...
Life is too short to be unhappy. If you don't love your husband and are not attracted to him anymore, then why don't you leave him? I can't imagine why people (both men and women) stay in a bad, unhappy marriage. It can't be worth the effort.
Thankfully, I am very happily married (though of course, we do have our bad times...) and can't imagine my life without my husband. But at the same time, I can't imagine being miserably married either.
You need to search your heart and really figure out how you feel about your husband. Good luck!
makes me sad, too. nm

Makes you wonder
how often this has happened with him over the 7-year period of his relationship with the other gal. I would be very cautious as the other posters say. Wait for someone who is worthy of you!
What makes you think she will?
I have always been very open with all of my children, and I have 4, 3 are grown, and they tell me everything. So far I have one who is in grad school and still a virgin because he said he refuses to have relationships just for the sake of having them, he'll wait until the "one" comes along. One is married. One is 18 and did have sex at 17 and said it was the worst thing he'd ever done and he wishes he would have waited. He told me about it the next day and was upset about it. My daughter isn't dating although she has 2 boys at the current time who are interested. She said "Mom I'm too young for that, I'd rather be friends right now." She also knows that should the time come when she IS ready for a serious relationship, she could come to me to help her make decisions and take full precautions. She in fact told the doctor she knows all about "crotch rot" and it isn't worth the risk. I have friends who say their children won't even talk to them if they need a laxative and that's really sad...if they can't talk to their parents, who will they talk to? So if my daughter tells me that she agrees she doesn't need it and her doctor said if she has no "at risk" behaviors she doesn't need it, then there's absolutely no reason to get it, esp considering there ARE side effects to it and it's new on the market, so the full effect won't be known for a few years.
