does your future son-in-law sm

In Reply to: I am not Catholic and maybe this is how it is in all Catholic churches, but I have to ask! - SM -- I am steamed!

go to church each week.  If not is he getting questioned like your daughter.  I am Catholic and go to church every Sunday.  I know from hearing family members that a  priest will not marry you unless he has proof that you are going to Church each week.  The envelopes are the proof.  The priest does not want to marry you in the church just because your Catholic. So if your son in law does not go to Church he is at fault also.  My DD is getting to another Catholic next year. She became very relaxed about going to Church.  They registered back into the Church once they got engaged and waited six months before contacting the priest. 


Some of what you said seems like it is the priest and not the Catholic religion.  I would contact another Catholic priest and see if he feels the same.  The bad part is if your daughter is probably getting turned off by the Catholic religion before she gets started.  She will have to sign a paper promising she will raise her children Catholic.   My daughter told me that there is separate paper work to fill out if you are living together so most people do lie.  She does not live with her fiance.  Also after they get married in the Catholic Church and then stop going most priests will not baptize the children just for the sake of it if the parents are not going to take the children to church.  All this is really a shame because the Catholic church is turning a lot of people away.   Good luck and give us any updates.

Think about future resale
I could only get preapproved for a mortgage on stick built homes.  No modulars, no manufactured, nothing that had "ever been on wheels or classified as such on the tax roles".  I had to pass up many good deals on great properties because my lender was adamant about stick built.  So keep in mind it may be harder to sell when that time comes.
This just in from my future contractor
"You friend is correct, but may be jumping the gun a little bit.

As I said before, I would avoid purchasing a NEW PC with XP. This does not make sense, especially if your current PC is working for you. Extended support for Windows XP systems will continue through 2014 at least and probably longer. So the timeframe for upgrading is quite long…

I would not upgrade a current PC (more than 2 years old) to Vista under any circumstances. With anything less than 2 Gig of RAM, the Vista OS slows to a crawl and many hardware vendors have not upgraded their drivers.

As far as a new machine goes, I would wait until the Vista SP1 (Service Pack 1) has had time to “soak” for a while before making any decision. It’s also MUCH better to change machines than trying to attempt an upgrade later (to Vista SPn for example).

Again, the other thing to consider is that not all vendors are currently ready to support Vista and the “compatibility mode” of Vista has been shown to be problematic.

So to summarize, here’s what I am suggesting to my clients and friends …

1. Let 2008 pass without upgrading.

2. Revisit the stability of Vista and the depth of vendor support in late 2008 to be ready for a planned migration from XP to Vista in 1Q 2009 at the earliest (and possibly later).

3. When considering the upgrade to Vista, plan a complete hardware upgrade as well.

If you would like to talk about this on the phone, feel free to contact me anytime. See this link http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsvista/sp1.mspx for more information about Vista SP1.



Lack of help from future son-in-law

Please tell me if I'm overreacting.  I'm moving 60 miles away from where I'm now living next weekend for a new job at a big hospital in my hometown.  I'm excited but nervous also.  My daughter is getting married in November.  I only have about 3 rooms of furniture and a lot of it is already boxed and in a storage room.  I asked my daughter if "Bruce," her fiance, and his buddies could help move me, as I am single, with no father, brothers or friends who are able-bodied any longer (I'm 50+).  She asked him and grudgingly he said something to the effect that he could, but we would have load the truck the night before and he would have to be finished up before noon the next day, and his friend would help for $200(!).  The last straw was he told my daughter to tell me not to expect to have boxes, furniture placed or set up, because he HAD to get to the "Mud Bog" by 12:00 sharp.


Is this any way to treat a future in-law?  He knows I don't have any family really.  I did get a couple of co-workers and their husband/brother to help, thank goodness, but I'm really worried about the future with this boy--respect for me, priorities, selfishness--thanks in advance.


That is work; he is your future son-in-law

It sounds like you were lucky to get the offer you got and since you have no one you'd have been better off to take him up on it. 


You certainly can't expect people to do things just out of the goodness of their heart when they know you can't stand them.  If you can come on here and post about your future son-in-law's flaws, then I'm sure he knows how you feel. 


What are you trying to prove here?  He said he'd do it, that it would cost $200.00 for the friends to help (do you expect him to carry everything by himself), but that he couldn't place the furniture?  So what's wrong with that? 


For your future and that of your kids
You may not think so, but you've got a lot of things going for you, the most important being that you realize you need to do something.
Short term: You've gotten great advice about making small changes, like exercising, losing weight, etc. Go for it.
Long term: You're worried about bills, housing, and your children's reactions to changes in their lives, and those concerns are certainly valid. But there is something more important at stake: You do not want your unhappy marriage to be the template for your children's future relationships in adult life. They deserve better than that, and so do you. See a lawyer and plan your exit strategy. It may take time, but *commit* to change. Have you ever heard the saying, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step?" Take that step and you will be surprised what you can do.
Might be exciting now, but future will be grim. SM
I would suggest adding some excitement to your marriage. Try to find the guy your husband was, that turned you on to him. That is where your attention should be.

You cannot go back again and you are not an 8th grader, but are acting like one.
Hmm, maybe modeling in her future? Hope

You probably saved someone's life in the future.
A couple months ago there was a terrible head-on train crash near Los Angeles, and the cause of it was the engineer of the passenger train blew through a red light because he was texting some teenagers. It's a shame he was killed, because he should have lived to see the carnage he caused.
Yay, my future son-in-law is such a peach. HE didn't forget about me! nm

if the sonogram was not wrong, for the future you may want to get your hormone levels checked. sm
a lot of times when women have multiple miscarriages at the stages you are it is because their hormones are off, in particularly low progesterone. if this is the case, in the future it can be corrected by taking progesterone at earliest sign of conception until about 11-12 weeks. so ask questions as to what your estrogen/progesterone levels were on your lab results today. have you carried any children yet to term? wish you the best of luck and pray for a good outcome......
Guess he can take out a loan for future schooling! Son found a phone
