  1. I think that asking the man in your life if you look fat in something is really putting him on the spot and a violation of the Honey you always look beautiful to me code that is available in most healthy loving relationships. I don't go there!!! There was a time that I did ask those kind of questions and I learned it just isn't fair to the other person. If you really care about your relationship and the person you are involved with find someone else that can tell you the truth and you won't be tempted to think about in an intimate moment with your sweetheart!!!
  2. Yes, we remember everything and it was a great time with out alcohol. Plenty of food and a place to sit outside of the reception hall with a beautiful sunsset in the background. Marvin is fine! We took him to dinner on Friday night and on Saturday, with the wedding and reception, he chose to keep a low profile. Thanks for asking Raf. Where does he go next?
  3. Wow, a delay in processing the information is a symptom and doing things under pressure of time are symptoms of this condition... That fits me a little too well!!! Glad the Stattera is helping. I read an entire book last weekend and have another one started I hope to finish. Reading a whole book and not getting bored or distracted was good for me. Reading helps me concentrate when I have other stuff to do after I read.
  4. We are back to lowest price being $2.59 here in Lincoln, NE!
  5. It isn't fun when you skip from thing to thing and can't stay with something. Do you eat much sugar? Do you deal with on going depression? I want you to ask yourself those questions and I don't expect a response on this public forum about the answers. I have trouble sticking to stuff at times and sugar and depression add to the issue. I also do not stay on the same subject when talking to my friends and loved ones. I talk in a circle about things. I start with one thing, change, change, and go back to the first thing. I do try to let people know when I'm going to switch and will make more of an effort not to do that if people say it's bugging them. I am pretty sure I have that disorder. I'm very fortunate that my husband decided early on that he wasn't going to be disturbed by my talking about several things in a conversation, switching subjects alot. I do try to say "Switching subjects now, okay?" or some other heads up. Try some stress reduction techniques and see if that doesn't help. Suggestions: Chanting Listening to new age music that you like (sometimes known as anti-frantic music) Walking Deep breathing Less TV Good luck!
  6. In addition to the vows I wrote I added to also make room for more Turtles. Oakspear has a Turtle collection that has grown quite steadily!!! At the grocery store where Oak works he is notorious for having a clipboard and that his clipboard and organization skills are quite awesome when we are planning other events... The flow chart for the wedding was amazing!!!
  7. Wedding Vows Tom, you have brought a beautiful serenity into my life… Your humor, your honor, your intelligence, and your voice of reason are just a few of the gifts that you bring me every day. It is with gratitude that I get to be your bride today… I treasure our beginnings and I promise to be a full vested partner in our life together. I take you to be my husband just the way you are every day and in every way. I vow to love you, your clipboard, and to hold up my end of our partnership. I vow to stand beside you at all times and to tell you the truth. I vow to respect the time you need to recharge yourself. I vow to listen to your point of view and be the best wife I can be… To make sure we have room in the cupboards for your tea and room for even more love, warmth, serenity, joy, and laughter in our home and in my heart.

    Out of Debt

    The average house in the Lincoln, NE area is upwards of $100,000...However...the fixer-upper's tend to be below $85,000.... Credit can be very hard to resist like those candy bars at the check out line in the grocery stores. Credit can be very awesome as in buying a long term asset or building a business.
  10. Susie's salad 1 can of fruit cocktail (drained) 1 can of pineapple tidbits (SAVE THE JUICE) 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese (softened) 1 small package of slivered almonds (if you like) 18 Large Marshmellows or a ratio of 6 small ones to one large one. Take the pineapple juice and warm it up on the stove. Melt the marshmellows in it and then melt the cream cheese, a little bit at a time in it. STIR and keep the heat off or down. Add fruit cocktail and pineapple (can get creative and add mandarin oranges or other assorted fruit)and almonds (if you like) Refrigerate...It needs to set-up.... This can be doubled very easily!!!
  11. Thanks for posting this from someone "in it." My friend has a daughter who was going to medical school in New Orleans. She left with her two cats and some stuff in a car. The college is at work helping her find a new place to begin her education again. She hasn't looked back. She did have her boyfriend to leave with. He has to find a new college as well.

    I suggested registering to Oakspear because some of our friends here at Grease Spot were asking if we had registered anywhere. 5 days and I will be Mrs. Oakspear... 4 days and family from out of town will be here...

    We Set A Date

    The reality is that we went to Target and scanned some items in and registered. We also went to Target's website and picked out a few more things. The registry is listed under my name as well. Susie Rhoads. Thanks for letting us know you can't find us. Try my name and see what happens.

    I also wanted to explain why I have not been in the chat room. I go to work at 9:30 P.M. and try to spend the time when i'm not sleeping with Tom and my daughter. It's getting really close to the wedding and I'm so excited. Tom ordered the food yesterday. My son is coming out. I get time off from work. Oak Mom and Dad are coming out. It's going to be awesome!!!

    Favorite Quotes

    I thought it would fun to exchange favorite quotes. I am also going to suggest that they be humorous and or inspiring. Orignial sayings are fine, however, an explaination might be helpful. "The cheese has fallen of his/her cracker" "The lights are on, but no one is home" "Out of body, I'll be back in 5 minutes" "Things have not been the same since the house fell on my sister" "It's not smart to mess with a witch"

    Two girls

    This other child is obviously "obsessed" with Kelly and getting her way in this situation. The only way out of this one is probably time and Kelly not giving any emotion or attention to the other young girl at all. Stalkers feed on any attention they can get. Shell, private topic me if you want some special assistance. I wish for you and Kelly both to get through this quickly and as painlessly as possible.

    We Set A Date

    It is nice that you are acknowledging our special day. To those that said they were coming and had to bow out, you will be missed.
  19. Gasohol is $3.20 and so is Diesel! We can't tell people over the phone what our price is at the convenience store I work at.
  20. Now that I know what an ICED cell phone is I can get that done... 90% of the time I don't have my cell phone with me...

    We Set A Date

    Yes, we found a place to live.
  22. I use my cell phone rarely. I have a plan that gives me 50 minutes and I never use them all. The phone can eat your time just like TV or even Grease Spot posting, lurking, and reading... Good for you for shutting yours off!!!

    Enjoy your cruise with your lovely Carol. Thanks for letting us know. Maybe someone will have a video camera to tape parts of the reception and the wedding itself. Bright Blessings and maybe some day I will get to meet you in person.
