I think this year is setting a president with hubby and me. We have a double whammy on Christmas as it's also our anniversary (5 years!). Our dilemma is that we are pretty much broke as hubby has been out of work for several months and there is no way I would even put pressure on him to give me anything and I sure hope he's not expecting anything from me but a nice home made card. Right now all I want is for him to get a job! That is my Christmas/Anniversary wish! No tchotchkes for me, after all soon I may not have a house to put them in so what good would that do, sigh.

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and hoping for an abundant New Year!

This is going to sound strange and probably highly impossible

by Calico Ethel in

i think a few of you out there know my story a bit.

i used to live in wisconsin and then i met someone from england, here on jwd, and then i moved to england to be with him and we got married in april...(very happily married i might add).

anyway, in the process of moving i left my kitty behind, only thinking it would be momentarily, but it's been an absolute nightmare to get here over here.

If it were me I would find an adoptive parent for Tiger and look for a new cat in England to adopt. I know one cat cannot fill the void of another cat all having special personalities but really think of Tiger being so traumatized on the trip over the pond. Man that would scare a human let alone a cat locked in a cage with complete strangers looking after him. Have some pity on poor Tiger and find him a good home stateside.

Good luck and happy hunting!

Do all men cheat?

by Save My Soul in

a friend (someone i respected a great deal / mentor) at my job has shared some information with me.

he cheats on his wife.

wow!!.

bikerchic

No not all men cheat just like not all women cheat. I think this poster nailed it with this comment:

I have never cheated on anyone, especially my wife. However, as I have told the wife in the past, I'm a good dog, but you have to pet me once in a while if you expect me to stay on the porch. Hopefully, I get "petted" tonight.

When I was dating my second husband he said he would always treat me like a queen and he did then and he still does, but I also treat him like a king.

Love is mutual respect of each other. Those who cheat don't have love either for themselves or the one they've betroth, that is sad everyone looses especially the children in the marriage.

Minimus and me

he told me that the thread he started yesterday tell me what you think of certain posters had been locked because some people though the bantering between he and i was serious.

im sorry but i laughed.

a lot.

bikerchic

Mama Mia!

So, who ever locked the thread and reduced Minimus’s posting limit to 25 a day, (I’m still laughing my ask off after he sent me an e-mail about that) please reconsider and do the right thing now that you know he was not serious about beating my ass (he thinks he’s Tony Soprano).

The guy’s fricken Italian. That’s how Italian guys from Boston talk about puppies and baby duckies for Christ sakes. They all think they are Tony Soprano. Just type in the words “The guy from Boston’ on a web browser and see for yourself. They can’t help it.

How was that Min? You going to send me the money now?

Dave

Now thatsa Italian!

Awe sheese you guys you outta know x cult members are way too serious for their and anyone else's own good, so quit kidding around will yas?

In all honesty I don't think yours and minimus's banter is why the thread was locked down. It smelled of doom from the beginning I am rather surprised at minimus for even starting such a thread he of all posters should know better, and I know you understand that Dave.

Have a good one I'm just happy to hear minimus isn't going to off you any time soon Dave.

What a couple of old farts you two are! LOL Save me jesus if I ever get like them!

I Snapped at a Witless Today

by Gretchen956 in

you know i'm not usually the type to do this, i really didn't even think i had it in me.

i was waiting for the bus, it was time for it to pull up, i was chatting with a co-worker and standing right in the middle of a whole bunch of other people, and here come two men in suits with briefcases, one looked to be in his 20s and one older, maybe late 30s or early 40s.

the younger one tries to hand me the magazines, the new way, by shoving them in your hand.

bikerchic

LOL Sherry I know what you mean about snapping! But good for you for speaking up I hope to be so bold next time myself.

I had an experience while walking through the airport this October on my way to baggage claim, mind you I'm tired already from my trip. These two JW's were standing holding the mags and I hadn't seen JW's for in what seemed forever so I made brief eye contact, my mistake!

Her mistake was she offered me the mags by putting them right in my pathway......I pushed them aside and said "NO I would never read that trash!" Really loud! I surprised myself but I wished later I had made a better reply and given her a good *coff*coff* anti-witness!

List of childhood simple pleasures...

by avishai in

friends

i'll start.

rubbing the stubble on the nape of your neck all day the day you get a haircut...

bikerchic

Waking up early on Saturday mornings and going for a walk with my brothers down the railroad tracks looking for hobo camps. Then putting two penny nails on the tracks waiting for the train so we could play war with our army men and our new swords.

Climbing my Grandma's walnut tree as high as I could get before she yelled at me to get down!

Playing statue maker with my cousins in Granny's backyard and hide-n-seek.

Family reunions in the park, roasting marshmallows, hot dogs, Bar-b-Que, and eating all the good home made food that my Aunts would slave for days to make and yum the ice cold watermelon! Playing endlessly with my cousins.

Skating, biking, card and board games that would last for days. Anyone have marathon Monopoly games?

Wrestling with my brother.

Our neighborhood war games those were fun times in the summer! Now days it might mean something entirely different!

Popsicles and the ice cream man.

Going barefoot down the creek behind our house. Swimming in the canals dodging water snakes, yikes!

Trips to the beach and camping at the beach.

Knowing a trip anywhere meant our entire family of 6 and several stragglers in a two door coup and no seat belts!

Listening to KRLA on my transistor radio low at night under the covers singing myself to sleep.

Cold foggy school days walking to school when you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Lunch in the cafeteria and recess! Dodge ball, tether ball, crossing bars and jump rope were my favorites.

in a sense its my fault, i made her take a look in the loft to see what she wanted me to take down.

anyway while she was perched on top of the ladder, she slipped back and banged her head/neck/back.

she is ok, up, smiling and joking compared to before when things looked quite serious.

bikerchic

Wishing you a speedy recovery Megan!
