Cellphone, cigarettes, keys, eyedrops, cash

That has nothing to do with their service. It's a bussiness. You don't pay your bill on time you don't talk. You wouldn't go in the grocery store & load up on groceries, carry them out telling them you'll be back the next day to pay. That's just good bussiness sense!!

That is a good deal. But, I won't go with contracts. Been burnt on those before with poor service & losing money. But, I could see where it would be useful.

Well, now you've got me very ticked off!! I must ask my BF to buy me one of those newfangled phones!!! That's actually really cool!! What kind of phone is it? I used to talk to a woman who had arthuritis so bad in her hands that she used a tennis ball with a pencil stuck through it so she could grasp the ball & type with the pencil. Was very painful for her to get on the PC & chat with anyone & she lived alone so the PC was her main companion. I could see something like that being a big help to some people who's hands for whatever reason prevents them from participating in conversations, etc.

Ok, that makes sense. Was thinking of a possible duplicate redirect thing to send you to a fake Gmail to get your info. At least that's what went through my mind!! Thanks for clarifying!!

I really needed that chuckle this morning!! Thx

I'm wondering why she'd need to give a phone number? I never used mine when I signed up for gmail. Occassionally they'll ask for a verification code (type in what's showing in a box above password login). Also, I log in all the time from a cell phone. My desktop & a laptop. Hardly ever have to put in a code & also in different states with different IP addresses. Normally you'd have a secondary email for them to send you your password information through alternate email. I smell a fish!!

I view advice & pep talks differently. Advice is to help you find a solution & peptalks usually consist of everythings going to be alright when most times they aren't!!

I agree 100%. My BF is one of the biggest flirts I know. Nothing I could do to change him. Heck, sometimes I even get a kick out of it because they are so young most of them wouldn't even give him the time of day. I actually turned around & went back yesterday so he could get a look at a gal. Heck, it was all in fun & it's not like he jumped out of the car & nailed her in the parking lot. I think it depends on your partner & how secure they are in your relationship.

I have once. Didn't really turn out so well. But, I don't regret taking the chance.

Always!!! Sex is like vitamins...taken daily & pop a few extras for good measure!

I'd like to do something like that but on a broader scale. I'd like to travel to towns like they do on curb appeal, etc & set up recreational centers & other things to help keep kids out of trouble. Recently I was in a part of VA & the kids had to travel anywhere from 45 min to an hour just to find something to do. The town was absolutely dead as far as activities.

Yuck!! Hate cherries!!!!

I've raised two kids of my own. No amount of parenting or time spent with kids makes you an expert but I'm no dummy either! lol But as you mentioned accidents can happen. Unless I watch them during the day he wouldn't be able to get them in June & I won't take that away. It's not the idea of caring for the kids during the day while he's at work. I'm just not sure how to entertain them & keep them occupied not really knowing much about them. I'd hoped to go with him & meet them. Then in June I'd know a little about them & be better prepared to watch over them while he's at work. I don't want to bore them to death or have them not like me. His oldest DD has cystic fibrosis & has to do treatments daily but I think she manages her care on her own. I'm willing to do it just a monkey wrench thrown in on how I'd planned to meet & get to know them.

I'd try not to hurt ya too bad! Cheers!!!

Act6ually that's about the only thing thatd wake me up!! But, I pity your azz when I'm done!! I'm not a nice person in the morning!

His ex's proposition is for him to come stay at her trailer (without her there) while leaving me behind. Then she'll let him have the kids a week in June. Now, mind you I've never met his kids & won't until then. Guess who get's to play babysitter with 3 young girls while Daddy goes to work during the day because he'll be using all his vacation time next week to apease her? Me!! Now, I'm sitting here imagining myself as Barney Fife on Andy Griffifth being tied up to a chair & gagged while he's at work!! It's not that I mind. But, how do I meet his kids for the first time in June & them being left in my care while he works knowing nothing about them? As for getting custody he works across country traveling to different states frequently to provide for his kids. His current job doesn't allow for custody/visitation rights. He is working on finding a well paying job in his line of work back home. He's begged me to hang in there & help get things worked out. It's always her way or no way. Hurting the kids in the process is all she knows. Am I suppossed to sit back & say I don't care?

I hope this doesn't mean you're leaving us here!! I'd miss ya!!!

I'm starting to realize I miss AA more than I ever thought I could. I've been going through a lot of BS lately & right now I sit here drunk wishing I had an AA friend to talk too but of course I tossed them all away for what I thought I wanted. Maybe a meeting today...

Right now I'm beyond pissed. We've argued all evening. I've decided to stay here in WV while he goes to see his kids. If I go she wont allow him to see them. Guess I'll deal with the backflash of **** when he gets back. Thx
