I dunno. I guess it depends on your situation.

If he's gushing about having talked to her, sharing little anecdotes that might be less than appropriate, then talk to him about your feelings.

If he does mention that yes e did talk to her and left it at that, let it go. Unless he's giving you reason to be concerned about the situation, then just breathe and move on.

Personally, I still talk some with my ex. We still have some financial issues that we are resolving, but also we were together for 15 years. We have a history and are still, somewhat friends on some level. Hell, I had to call him the other day to ask about something on my truck, because I didn't remember what was done. He called me to say "you were right" after he had a heart attack. It is what it is.

You just have to reconcile your feelings with your situation.

This is kind of tough though... I consider 1, 2, and 3 are all equally important.

My parents, without a doubt... isn't that what they are there for?

Bad influence... my grandmother. The woman is evil and makes me want to live life better just to not be anything like her.

Eh, I love both. Being that they are two completely different animals, it's hard to choose one over the other.

When I need a kick in the butt... I'm all about Metallica.

When I want to chill out... I'm lovin' Seger.

Aww, thanks! I've been lurking a little, but not really posting. Been busy with work and life.

I agree with what Lilith had to say regarding the certified letter, etc. Sometimes you just have to go that route.

I guess I'm lucky on the rent issue. I've got a cute 2 bedroom, 1 bath house... with a new central heat & air unit, 1 car garage, concrete driveway (although it is cracked in a few places), fenced back yard, mature trees, landscaping, storm cellar for $325 a month.

Then again, I am in small town Oklahoma. But it is a great community. Most everything I need (shopping & entertainment) is less than 5 miles away.

I don't mind it. But, I prefer Mountain Dew.

My first one is of rto dolphins jumping over a cracked globe held by waves.

It's for my two stepdaughters and their screwed up world. Each cresting wave represents one of the main people in their life that supports their world and holds it together

My second and only other one is another dolphin that is on my ankle with a tribal band.

I think the most views I've had in a single day was 68... but that was when I had "the large gal in the neon green bikini" pic up as my av. Wow, she was popular!

The second most was my "tongue" pic and that got something like 50 in a day.

Scouring my house in anticipation of the general's (my Mom) visit. She's one of those people that come in and swipes her fingers across random surfaces checking for dust.

I rarely get perved anymore... unless I have some bizarre picture up.

*sigh*

Have you been perving & nudging again?

I want to preface my response by saying that I am an avid supporter of our Armed Forces. I was married to a career Marine. I have several family members and friends that are service, have served and have died for our country. I'm sure I'm going to get blasted for this, but I this bothers me.

While normally I side with veterans on most everything, I do however have a bit of problem with this assumption of "entitlement". I understand that this man has essentially given his life for our country, I do not think that gives him (or his family members) the right to assume that he gets to go and do for free. The park official that stated "We just can't be in a position of picking and choosing. We have grandparents (who pay admission) that come in our park every day that have no intention of ever going on a ride." is completely within their rights to require payment.

I think if these people had called ahead, talked with management, etc., that this could have been handled much more diplomatically. But to assume that he'd be admitted for free is a load of hooey.

I'm as patriotic as anyone. My ex husband is a disabled Veteran that has been treated badly by society. But he has no preconceived notion that he gets a free ride because he has titanium to hold his spine together, will likely die at an early age due to "Gulf War Syndrome", has been shot, stabbed, left for dead, or the multitude of other issues that come with being career military.

Ok... *Rant Off*!

When you figure it out, let me know. I'm having a hellaciously bad morning as well.

I just go start talking random blabber until they realize I'm still talking. If that doesn't work, a slap to their head works well.

'Lonesome Dove' by Larry McMurtry

I've only read it a million times. I enjoy it every time and have a different perspective of it every time I read it. Definitely a good read.

Search, search, search. Online newspapers, state employment centers, temporary services. I've moved more times than I care to acknowledge and have had to overcome this many times.

You just have to search everywhere. Many times you could just have to set up as much as possible, explaining to prospective employers that you are definitely moving to the area and that you are looking to find employment. Many will even let you do a phone interview with a promise of a face to face soon.

Ex lived down the street from Jimmy Buffet as a kid. Everyone knew him as "drunk Mr. Jimmy". We went to see him in intimate concert and he actually remembered my ex and bought us drinks. It was a trip!

Ex also used to work from Charlie Daniels on his farm outside of Nashville. One day going to pick up his kids from the ex, we get stopped on the road leaving and he asked us over to his house for tea. We sat on his front porch in rocking chairs, drinking sweet tea and visiting for a couple of hours. Pretty cool.
