Ex.......................my first job I had when I was 17, and no laughing... was a secratary, then on to a receptionist, the funny part was what I had to wear, the white blouse, the skirt, nylons and high heels.................that is so NOT me!!!!

Yuck!!!

"EVERYTHING" by Michael Buble...............gives me goosebumps, it's sooooooooo old fashioned and romantic! In fact I love all his stuff!

If I knew how or remembered how to post that particular piece, or You-tube, I would !

Whether it's positive or negative publicity, I bet she is just lapping it up, she loves being at the centre of attention, she's getting exactly what she wants, the whole world paying attention to her!!

Hi Belle....nice to see you too!!!

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a "New York minute?"

Chas............here's another idea your little one might really like, I just started up a little business along with my sculptures, doing treasure hunts, when it comes to entertainment for birthday parties, school activities, company parties, businesses, church picnics, you name it, can do it inside or out, with any amount of people, any age group, even midnight treasure hunts with a flash light, I design the treasure maps and all the clues, do the whole preparation, but I leave it up to the person having it, to purchase something for the treasure and then I'll put it in the treasure chest and hide it along with the clues, I hide the clues the day before in zip-lock baggies and let the person in charge know where all the clues are hidden, that way I don't have to be there for the party and it frees my time up to take off on the weekends. I charge according to the difficulty of the treasure hunt and all the preparation that goes into it (some of the maps get pretty elaborate and people want to keep them as a souvenir) I've always had this thing for treasure maps so I decided to expand on that and I came up with this idea, right now I'm putting some on at my boys school, kind of like a trial run.

I think it's all just an act.

TheHighway...............just read your post and I wanted to say don't give up with your drawings, just because you are looking at someone elses work and drawing something similiar doesn't mean you don't have the talent to draw, it comes with alot of practice and ALOT of artists just starting out learned to draw by copying someone else's artwork and then they went on to develop their own style. One artist that is world famous for children's illustrations, does the illustrations for the author Robert Munsch, his name is Michael Martchenko and that's exactly how he got started by copying other people's work, then he came up with his own, now his stuff is all over the world.

Go for it!!

Mark..........

I'll make a wager with you.......you'll be in "depends" and drooling way before me !!

I'm curious..............I'm beginning to see someone who is 8yrs younger than myself and no I am not desperate, I've had my fair share of dates but no one with 8yrs difference between us. So far he seems to be a real sweetheart. Sometimes in my mind I wrestle with the thought about the age difference but the majority of the time I just enjoy him for who he is and not get wrapped up in the age thing. I think because in my day and time when a couple got together it was so drilled into our heads you dated someone close to your own age either wise it was almost considered taboo, also it was more acceptable for a man to date a lady quite a bit younger than himself than for a lady to date someone alot younger than her.

Any thoughts on this?

Suda..................those pictures you posted, who is that, iIve seen the face before but I can't put a name with it

Thanks

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........................

Thanks to all of you for your prayers............................he started to improve, was sitting up, they took out his feeding tube, he was able to laugh and comminicate, he was coming along pretty good and then he developed pheumonia and took a turn for the worse, the Dr's say it's only a matter of time and he doesn't want any heroic measures taken, if he can't have any quality of life, then he doesn't want to live.................

My mom's partner of 16 years. He just had another heart attack and they say it doesn't look good, please pray that he pulls through it.

Thanks Eyesopen, Rhino and Rainbowsgirl for your suggestions, I ended up going with the strongest glue possible even if it means the walls come down when I go to remove them, lol!! As for cleaning them I just use the shower head and spray them down. aleast they're not going to budge!!

Rainbowsgirl................as far as your question goes, the answer is yes, he's a real sweetheart,

Cowgirl

I have a collection of heart shaped rocks that I have been collecting and I want to glue them to the lip of my bathtub for display, so we're talking about about ceramic, plastic and stone. I need a really good glue that drys quickly and is pretty durable, can anyone suggest a glue that will stick all three of those with no problem?

Thanks

Dot....................you can always go live in the jungles with a tribe, that's my answer when things in my life get too overwelming, I wouldn't have to pay any bills, wouldn't have to pay for food, no taxes, no gangs, no crime, lots of sunlight, wouldn't have to be concerned about clothing, wouldn't have to have a 9-5 job, life would just seem so simple and uncomplicated.

Cowgirl

CoolChef, thanks for the suggestion, I just might try it out and Cindy, what a great site, thanks, I'll definitely put it to good use!!

Cowgirl

LOL Kathy !! I stand corrected ......lady, female, woman

Odd man out here !!!

To tell you the truth, even though I didn't agree with her sexual preferences, I enjoyed her, I found her to be funny and down to earth, she wasn't afraid to be herself. I like the fact that she wasn't afraid to speak up.

Cowgirl

I have to agree with that guy standing in front of the orange pickup truck..............Mr Zelotes !!

Can any one recommend some good curry dishes, the kind with a sauce and chicken or shrimp that you would serve over rice?

Thanks

PS I meant to include low-fat in the recipe

I have 5 children, 3 of who are boys, 9 and two 8 yr olds................the boys had some friends over and were playing outside, they were trying to impress the girls, one of my sons starts throwing rocks on top of the van, he's impressed with his aim and gets a little more daring, while his two other brothers are standing by, witnessing all of this, thinking Oh this is fun!" he hurls a

rock right through the back window................GLASS EVERY WHERE !!! GO FIGURE!!!!

He's grounded for LIFE!!!!!

P.S. These are the same guys who last year cut all the tops to my tomato plants off!!

Is this typical for boys????
