I was a banker for 21 years. The check was not returned for insufficient funds. There is a different reason. "Refer to Maker" means just that. Please contact the maker (your employer as you said they are payroll checks) and they will tell you what is wrong with them. Chances are they may just issue you new checks. It could be some little simple problem as someone stole some checks and they aren't sure which ones or a variety of other reasons. No way to speculate - just do as it says, refer to maker and they will let you know. Please let me know what happens.
Just the muted light of the television on mute (so no disturbing sound). Best if turned to the blue or red video screen unless you like the light changes of regular tv shows.
Love is a two way street. If you aren't sending flowers or letters, how can you expect to get them? The other key is, would you give a flower to a person standing in front of you with no face? A picture really is the way to go. Posting in the forums will tell all your opinion and show your sense of humor. It's the best way to get to know the "regulars" here. Welcome.
Thanks everyone for your kind posts. Today is a tough day for me. My favorite radio station was kind enough to dedicate a song this morning. Tim McGraw's "Indian Outlaw" which we did see performed live at Foxwoods when it came out. The other song that tells of our life is Tim McGraw's "Live Like You Were Dying" which ironically came out just after Tom's death. My advice to you all is live your life that way, making each day count and never forgetting to say I love you. There are too many of you to name individually but many of you are special friends to me (and at least one stole my heart) and to those I say, I love you.
Hillary Clinton and her driver were cruising along a country road one evening when an ancient cow loomed in front of the car.
The driver tried to avoid the cow but couldn't - the aged bovine was struck and killed.
Hillary told her driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what had happened.
She stayed in the car making phone calls to lobbyists waiting for her driver to return.
About an hour later the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in disarray. He was holding a half empty bottle of expensive wine in one hand and a rare huge Cuban cigar in the other, and was smiling happily, smeared with lipstick.
"What happened to you?" asked Hillary. Well, said the driver, " the farmer gave me the cigar, his wife gave me the wine, and their beautiful twin daughters made mad passionate love to me."
"My God! What did you tell them?" asked Hillary.
The driver replied, "I just told them I was Hillary Clinton's driver, and that I just killed the old cow."
Rocker, you are not alone. I have lost relationships by being honest, but I can't not be so that's the way it has to be. If it costs you someone, they really weren't right or worth it. Stay honest and true to yourself.
My late husband had that arrangement for his son and the poor kid felt like he never had a home. I'm against it for that reason. If he wants to see them more often, fine, but they need to know one place is their permanent home. Your issue of homework is also a valid one. I advise no.
Bless you my great man Barbaro. We all watch you run and the talent and power that would have made you a Triple Crown Winner. May you rest in peace, you great warrior. We know how much heart you had.
My first CS secret crush is gone - taken--solidly fallen in love with someone else, or so he wrote. However, there is another who has caught my attention and has been knocking on my heart.... who knows what might grow.
Well said! As for your earlier answer, my husband had small cell cancer (oat cell) and I could tell from the very first ultrasound they sent us for. My untrained eye could see the liver covered with spots and I immediately knew before the tech could ask a single question.
To all smokers, if you haven't the courage to stop for yourself, please have the courage to stop just to save your loved ones the most horrible fate of watching you shrivel and die in pain. It's the least you could do. I've been there and done that!
That statement that you would quit for the right person is untrue, because the only person with enough power to make you quit is yourself. Yes I am a non-smoker but I know more about this than all you smokers put together. My true love smoked, he tried so hard to quit for me, he was finally successful, but it was already too late and he died of lung cancer. We were together 6 years, one of them in wedded bliss of chemo treatments. He was the love of my life. Quit for yourself so that when the woman of your dreams comes along, you won't do that to her. Don't wait until its too late -- do it for yourself now. I wish my love had done it for himself cause then he might still be here now.
Stop thinking so hard and enjoy life. You are alive, healthy and able to love. That is a success, enjoy it. Life has many ups and downs. Enjoy the ups and depend on the love of yourself and others to get you thru the downs.
Accept yourself for who you are. You don't need to tell others how great you are, just be you and love yourself. That will come across to others. Love others for who they are and they'll love you. Treat others as you want to be treated and (most of the time) they'll do the same.
I get up that way to Southington every Friday. Ever been to the Cadillac Ranch? Great music and dancing. My girlfriend has a trailer up at Lone Oaks Campground.
