  1. They got mad because you wrote their names on the same line or separate lines?

    They got mad because I used both their names and didn't pretend they were married. I think I used separate lines.

    They were in their 40s and had been living together for a while. I guess it was offensive to use the separate names as it pointed out that they were not married.

    It wasn't a big deal to me as I had a small number of people I could invite and it opened up two more spaces for my friends. Lol

  2. My mom used to count very fast in an effort to reign in her temper. When she started counting like that, my sister and I knew it was time to stop talking or arguing and scatter if possible. Lol

     

    I like to talk to myself when performing complicated tasks, but I try not to do it when I am not alone.

     

    I say whatever works for you, you should do. :-)

  3. Barkeepers friend will take care of the rust. http://www.barkeepersfriend.comYou can find it at Walmart or some grocery stores. Just sprinkle the powder on and scrub it with a little water.

     

    Dawn mixed with vinegar 50/50 will take care of the soap scum. Don't use it in a spray bottle, it smells horrible. Just wipe it on and leave it on for 4hours or so. Then it should come off with water and gentle scrubbing.

     

    Good luck. :-)

  5. Sorry about your divorce.

     

    My mom kept her married name after only 7 years of marriage. She said she wanted to stay the same as me and my sister and also because her citizenship was under her married name and it would cause a bigger headache to try and change that. She is kinda annoyed at be the only one left with my dad's name (my sister and I are married and both of us changed our last names) but I think at this point she is used to it.

     

    I think you should keep the name that feels the most like you.

  6. My son has worn glasses since he was 9months old. At first he wore glasses that had the wrap around the ear things (very expensive.) Then we used sunglasses holders to tie them to his head. He really needs them to see, so he never takes them off. Now that he is a little bigger and likes to wrestle with other boys, I ask him to hand me his glasses to keep them save. I think the main thing is to make sure the glasses do not come off or are stored safely. A four year old boy will have no concept of setting them down in a safe place.
