If Money were not a factor....

If Money were not a factor....

Oh well since this wave of money won't be coming our ways guess I can get started on those household chores, paying bills, etc...gosh, isn't reality fun

Take care all...will check back in later...

I'm in the holiday spirit, our local Christmas parade is this afternoon, Earl & I are going when he gets home from work

If Money were not a factor....

Hey Lady I believe we can all find happiness...just seems some days we have to dig a little deeper in ourselves to find it heh???

If Money were not a factor....

**oops, folks

If Money were not a factor....

Come on folk let's talk about something positive , even if it is only dreaming

If Money were not a factor....

How would you like to spend the upcoming holidays

Me (Peaches) Would fly all Earl's family in for some great turkey, ham, and barbequed Pork shoulders with all lthe trimings..yum yum! His family plus mine would be a great Get-Together!!

Then I'd put that motorcyle of Earl's dreams under the Christmas tree

Before everyone got here I would hire an A-One carpenter team to finish some of the household things that we've not gotten to

And I would hire a Cleaning Crew to scrub the house from top-to-bottom..I love everything organized and clean as a whistle.

Then I would call a decorating crew to come and decorate our home to the hilt with fresh greenery, garland, holly with red berries, etc....and just make everything so warm and comfy for my husband, family and guests

And give Earl a week off with pay to spend with us.

For all this I would be grateful , but to tell the truth if we are all in good health and safe, though not together for the holidays, I would be very content to know how Truly Rich Our Families Are in Blessings from our Lord Above

But if money were not a factor I'd go CRAZY for those whom I Love so Dear

PS...I would also choose to share our financial blessings with other families in need during the holidays and share the warmth of giving

RE: Snow

The only time I get excited about snow is during deer season. After that, I don't want to see any more.

But then, since I moved down here to NC, I hope it's a looooooooooooonnnnnnnnnggggggggggg time before I see it again

RE: Happy Birthday to me

Happy Birthday

Hope all in your life is going well

Doing Great since moving Raynew (ie..Earl) down South

RE: "What are YOU looking for?"

Admit it....dang it you love us and you just can't stay away we missed your warped sense of humor and cute little smile

RE: "What are YOU looking for?"

I found all of the above in one beautiful woman and married her

RE: New York Governor proposes drivers licenses for illegal immigrants

"If they're not here legally, then how can the granting of any legal document or privelage be justified."

Agreed

"If they get into an accident, then how would they be held liable? Worst case scenario would be if it proved fatal."

The worst that would happen is either being deported or imprisoned with us paying the taxes for their upkeep

" Catering to them is what I call it..............."

We're already catering to them by allowing them social security benefits thanks to Bush

RE: What makes you dispair of the human race?

How people of any age, gender, social or ethic group can so easily and coldly hurt one another with mere careless words...... though they can't break bones, they so easily break hearts and souls in two and some of these breaks last a lifetime for so many people how sad that we don't pay more attention to the words we use with our loved ones, friends...sometimes giving more kindness to strangers instead

But on the positive note I've seen some real genuine kind words exchanged here on CS..and very often So I know kindness occurs too, and hopefully in more proportion than hurt

RE: Have you ever had an abusive Partner?

I'm so sorry you had this experience

I like to garden so if my present hubby ever gets this idea, I'll just add some more lime to my garden to take care of the new fertilizer that will surely be added shortly after he completely loses his mind during a rage of that sort.

I do have experiences of this type in my past, so it makes any future choices of how to deal with it pretty simple to decide

Take care and know this is only one of those days that will temporarily affect you and that you are capable of overcoming and growing stronger from it

RE: When First They Met...

Kansan, truly one of the best gifts you give your "Jackson" is one of knowing how to beautifully express your Love for her in a gentle, non-provocative, sincere manner that geniunely treats her like the "Queen of Your Heart" What a very Blessed Lady

Gentlemen of this world could learn much from you as to how to "Cherish One's LifeMate"

You know "The Love's" right when you can bring out the "best in each other" without even trying., and overlook the worst in each other and not "keep score."

I pray for you and Miss Jackson many many many years of Love, Laughter, and Memories together

RE: If you could undo one thing your parents did, what would it be?

Lots of things, Peaches

Baggy Pants

I'm sure everyone knows about the fad where kids wear baggy pants that have the crotch down around their knees.

I always thought this was started by blacks (no disrespect meant) but finally learned where it got started. Not long ago I was listening to the radio where they had a psychologist on the phone. The baggy pants fad got it's start in prisons by inmates showing they are "easy".

RE: Would you do it again

Whoever hurt you Jodi isn't worth the effort. You're a beautiful woman and I'm sure there's someone out there for you.


Myself, was married for almost 10 years before she gave me the boot. Divorced for 12 years before I got remarried to Shelia. Took that long to find the right one this time

RE: need advice

I feel so sad for your ex I really believe someday she will have such remorse and regret, and yall's daughter's wedding day only comes this one time only once.

I'm glad you and your daughter have had the courage to make this important decision
Peaches

RE: need advice

It's your daughter's day..the heck with what anyone says except her and her soon-to-be life mate If after talking to the two of them, and making sure everyone is informed about the possible turn-of-events, they then say "yes" to please come, then "Yes" do that in honor of her.





ps...didn't use the word "step daughter" because she obviously loves you more than just a step Dad,
so make her day as special as you can. She and her Mom can work it out later when her Mom hopefully takes the time to understand how important this was to her daughter and regrets putting such an ultimateium on either of you Good Luck and I hope this works out for everyone

RE: Would you do it again

Peaches here, hi!

Was married 25 yrs the first time, never thought of divorce until that marriage ended

Didn't plan on making a life commitment ever again, that is, until Earl came into my life and brought a rebirth of Love into my heart

So yes I've done it again, 2nd time and I feel sure Last Time, cause this type of Love is rare to find

I believe later in life we can appreciate Love for so much more than selfish needs and desires. It does become "A Heartbeat Between Two Souls" that drowns out the World

Veterans Holiday Monday..do you have to work or do you have the day off?

Woohoo for the gov't jobs that is

Veterans Holiday Monday..do you have to work or do you have the day off?

The church we attended on Sunday honored the vets there Some were from as far back as WWII. What an honor to be in the presence of such honorable persons who gave so much for us so long ago

Veterans Holiday Monday..do you have to work or do you have the day off?

Earl (aka..Raynew)'s working

Peaches

RE: To all Vets.....

No Greater Love Than to Give His or Her Life for another

Thank you all and your family members too who have sacrificed for our Country
{{Hugs, Peaches}}

RE: Does anyone here "play" Second Life?

I've read about it in a couple of articles. In one, the creator of it is suing someone over copyright infringement or something to that effect.
In the other, it was about how people were spending more time in their "second life" than in their first. The article was called Game Widows

RE: For cat lovers

I have a kitty rescue with 15 cats right now, and their favorite trick to do is to see how many can sit on my lap all at one time. They all have their own Kitty House in the backyard with a fenced in kitty playground. I love them very much and my male boxer who they think is their personal guardian. I do feel they have definitely trained me at times..little stinkers

RE: Life, Living and Reflections

Daniel, I believe someone can only appreciate the "man inside" you after meeting you face-to-face.

During the family campout July 4th week of this year, I had the opportunity to get to chat with you some, and you were wonderfully patient as we talked during my roadtrip up to NH to get Earl,.

But the time we had to chat at your home, over that delicious steak dinner you prepared for Earl and I with your Niece, was I able to see the special gentleman that you are.

I know the webcam can be more personal than a phone call or IM message, but only when someone meets and sits down to talk with you one-on-one can he or she ever really get to know the great guy you are.

Mom said you boys were very much like your Dad, so a girl can only be Loved Incredibly by the men you all became. I know Earl is the most incredible guy ever. Just he doesn't show it off except for the people he cares the most about. I know you're made from the same cloth!

At 44, you're still in your Prime

Girls do you ever wonder what cold toes are good for?
