  1. DD14 wants to move to Scotland and find the Loch Ness Monster. :001_huh: She's only half kidding. She's recently been researching colleges in Scotland. DS11 has about 30 things on his list but he wants to be some type of scientist for sure. DD8 wanted to be a dentist for a long time but now she wants to write and illustrate books.
  2. We don't have indoor pets but I stepped on a leftover pine needle from our Christmas tree the other day. It hurt like heck!!
  3. I'm can't imagine how awful it was for her, too. I'm sure her mind's filled with a lot of 'what ifs'.
  4. I'm sorry your DD is hurting. My niece is also trying to figure out what she did wrong. It breaks my heart. Thank you all!! I'll take everyone's advice and lay off bashing him. It'll be hard though!:tongue_smilie:
  5. I think you nailed it. I hope I can drive the bolded part home to her.
  6. I mentioned it because a lot of people think 'Oh, it's just young love. We all go through it. She'll get over it. What's the big deal?' and I wanted to point out that she was truly, seriously heart-broken.
  7. I think all in all he's not a bad kid but he's definitely a bad boyfriend. He didn't want her but he didn't want anyone else to have her either so he strung her along and started dating someone else before he broke it off with her. I let her know that her hurt is very real and that she has every right to mourn. She graduated mid-term so she's at home all day by herself. I need to figure out something to keep her busy during the week in the daytime hours. Thank you for the suggestions!
  8. My 18 year old niece's boyfriend of almost 2 years just broke up with her. She's absolutely devastated. Her mom moved 2 states away from her when she was 2 years old so she doesn't have a mother-figure in her life. Her dad's not really there for her emotionally, either. He did raise her all these years, though. We, as adults, know everything will be okay but this is every bit as painful and real to her as it would be to us. I've said all the basic things....It's gonna take time, He was a jerk anyway, It's better you know now, I understand, etc... What can I do for her to really help? I remember how painful things like this were at her age.
  9. Lucky! I don't think we're ever going to get snow this year. Yesterday, we got tornadoes, though.
  10. We're having a normal day here. My youngest is the only one I have left in school and her school is open but if she was home we probably would have taken off for the day.
  11. I'm not necessarily saying God let the Broncos beat the Steelers last week because someone prayed but Tim Tebow's Broncos beating the Steelers caused John 3:16 to be the top thing trending on Google for awhile. As a Christian, I find that to be a good thing and I have to wonder how or maybe more importantly why did the Broncos pull off that spectacular win. http://articles.businessinsider.com/2012-01-09/sports/30606383_1_tim-tebow-tebowmania-google
  12. $80/month...internet only (Verizon air card). We get 10 Gigs a month. Insight is an option here but we're so far off the road it would have cost $1400 to bring it to our house.
  13. Do you know what drives me crazy? Internet spelling/grammar police.
  14. My grandma and grandpa could never agree on which way to hang a roll of toilet paper so grandpa installed a second hanger that way they each could have their own.
  15. I'm glad you posted. I had forgotten about buying it. I'm looking forward to browsing through everything tomorrow.
  16. You can find tons of the episodes free online. Also, I have a free old time radio app on the iPhone that has a lot of Fibber McGee and Molly plus many other shows.
  17. I found my email. It was signed by Jim and had this email address listed below his name: homeway@scrtc.com Maybe he can help.
