| The Lounge | where are the parents? | Jun 12 2009 12:20 (UTC) |

That's really a shame that they are not being watched and I two have been at the playground with my daughter and seen other kids playing and I know they are not being supervised. I can easily say when we are leaving to the child do you want us to walk you home or We are going home now maybe you should too and walk them home. But it would make it hard if I didn't have my daughter with me I would be afraid that someone would think I was trying to kidnap them and have me arrested even if I had good intentions. I know sometimes kids can get away from you and you don't even know it. Or your older child is suppose to be watching them and didn't. Has happened to me one time my daughter walked down to the neighbors while I was taking a shower. And older sister was suppose to be watching her. Lucky when I got out of the shower I asked her where she was and she said IDK and I went out looking for her in a towel but did anyway. I saw her on side the roade. 15 mins later a Sheriff car pulled in the driveway asking I she had been walking down the road and I said "yes I got her". Someone saw her walking and called them (which is probable the safest thing to do but be sure no one knows it was you because Social Serivices can be called if the parents didn't know or are not watching them you may hear slack about it).She was 4 and wanted to play with the dog.When I found her I freaked and instead of yelling sat down on the ground holding her sobbing unconrollable made her realize how dangerous it really is or maybe she didn't want mommy to get upset again because Now that she is 7 she never leaves my side I go to the bathroom she goes to the bathroom, I taking a shower she right there. If we go shopping and I leave her line of sight she freaks out and when she sees me she lets me know that she is affraid that I (Me, her mom) got lost or kidnapped. Her Daddy Calls her his proctoigist (sp?_) (not to her face) as she walks right behind him all the time won't let him out of her site and every time he stops she bumps into him, She follows him around the house like that and if he goes to the bathroom she stands outside the door and talks to him. She has gotten alot better I have to admit. If we go shopping she will run down an Isle to get Cereal while I stand at the end of it but and runs back, she will go in the ladies room but I have to stand at the door and ask her "Everything okay every few minutes so she knows I am there. So she is learning Independance. |

Sorry I have not gotten back to everyone sooner lot going on, which is another problem. Here is the update. Got out of work, texted him that I was on my way home. I got to the camper and he was already in there. Night light on a bouquet of flowers on the table and note telling me he was in the back in bed. He said he was sorry and if he fell asleep to wake him up when I got there.He was sleeping soundly never heard me come in so I went in the house and showered put on a long silk gown and robe, and went back out there. ( I was not expecting anything but I wanted to look nice). I tried to wake him up but he was in a very deep sleep I guess, so I just crawled in bed and snuggled up with him. Which he responded to this quite nicely by pulling me close to him. We slept like that all night, He ended up waking up for work late, which he said "I just didn't want to get out of bed, I was to comfortable and didn't want to go to work" He said " I wish I had called off". Which made me feel really good. He went into the house and bought me a change of clothes as we also own a garage with another guy and he didn't want me walking to the house in my sexy night gown, for everyone to see. Which again made me feel good as he still thinks I am sexy. He came home from work early, Now mind you he went in a half hr. late and came home early which he can do but never does, he usually works late everyday. We where able to talk. I told him that calling me a sex-aholic hurt and he apologized saying he didn't mean it as a bad thing that. He was happy about my new desire. I asked him why he was avoiding it. He then said that he had a lot on his mind and proceeded to tell me. I then told him that he needed to communicate to me what was going on that we have always communicated how we feel and to stop now would only put more strain on our marriage. I then told him that I didn't mean it that I would find it else where if he didn't want me anymore. He said he knew that as because I always said that If we split up I would call him for a booty call if I ever wanted sex, and we both laugh. I asked him if I could joke about him being my "New found boyfriend and Joked about not telling my husband. He said " Only if I didn't tell his wife". I went to work on Wed and texted him on and off all day with things like " I would like to make an appointment for to get an oil and lube" If I could have tube steak for dinner" You get the picture and he replied with a lot of other ones "Eating at the golden arches etc. We can't get to naughty with texts just in case the 7 yr old gets his/my phone and reads them. Anyway we did this all day thursday as he had to work. It was my day off. My 7 year old got off the bus as her sisters. They had something planed anyway. The 16 yr old went shopping with 18 yr old and he house was empty, When he go home he had to work in our garage. Well Here comes the good Part! I got my Sugar Honey Ice Tea, and PUNK. As Eddiep would put it and used some of his very good advice, he was half way under a car when I sunk in the garage locked the door and went to town on him. When I suddenly stop and went to walk away and he asked "What's wrong?" I said I had to make dinner, Well need less to say We ended up ordering Pizza as there was not time for dinner and the girls got home we were still in the garage. It was the longest most intimate time we ever spent together. I really want to thank everyone for your posts and suggestions I took each one as not negative or positive I evaluated them too Notes and processed everything. I valued every ones opinion. But most of all I want to thank EddieP and yes his advice and ideas did work for me. They were defiantly better then casmo mag. My husband asked what I was reading. I told him I got advice from a friend not telling him who and said He doesn't have to know all my secrets. He was a little disturbed as the though I was Airing our sex lives to everyone. I explained that I was just asking a friend for new Ideas, as to make our already good sex life a lot more Spicier. Which I was not lying, I just didn't give details. Anyway Eddiep Where did you do the research from I would like to find out more Ideas. LOL or Maybe you could keep them coming It is so nice to have a man's perspective on this kind of matter. Thanks again everyone!!!! Cathy |

Original Post by glamgram: My hubby fairly healthy 59yrs, he has slightly high blood pressure, but refuses to take medication, he has watches his sodium intake. He is 6"2 and weights 210 not really over weight mostly muscle with a small belly. He seems to be alot less happier lately, think he may have some issues with the girls moving out and alot on his mind. Our 18 yr old moved out 2 months ago and it was not on good terms. Which is a long story. At work he not anymore stressed then he ever was. See that's the part that I don't get. When the kids are around we always find time or a spot, We go out in the woods, drive behind the corn lot, lock our selves in the bathroom. We talked about our fantasies. It's just since the kids aren't home that he started to avoid it, falls asleep on the couch, gets up early and mows the lawn. And I have told him that I wanted more cuddling and intimacy with him. Or just plain time Walk in the park, out to dinner, like we use to. We use to seek time in at least 2-3 times a week now it's like once a month. I read these posts and the cosmo books from my daughter and I texted him tonight. I started out by asking him the usual questions How was work??? Did he get his dinner I made?? Etc. Then I told him that I missed him and what i missed. It took him a few minutes to answer me so I thought opps made a mistake. Well he was taking a shower. He replied with "I know I have been taking you for granted" and some other mussy stuff. Then he said he was going to take a nap to text him when I left work ( he has to work at 6am). I asked him if he wanted to meet in the camper and he said sounds like a plan. Karozel- I think the camper is a good Idea, only because it's neutral and will be easier to talk and if it leads into an intimate evening all the better. I haven't tricked him cause i told him we have to talk. Oh the telling my daughter that "he doesn't love me because he not attracted to me" was emotional upset, a sudden break down, I called her back and appoligized and told her I know that he loves me I just lost my mind for a few minutes, She said she understood and knew that I was having a pms mom moment or menopausal moment, that there was no need to appoligize. She said she knew there was some tention between us and was assuming it was sexual but not sure on who's part or details. Kids know everything. That's why she invited her sister to spend the night and gave me the books. |

Thanks for all you input. I Called my 21 yr old daughter. She is taking my 7 yr old over night, and to school in the morning. My 16 yr old on a sleep-over to study for finals. I have to work till 12am but my friend gave me the Idea to go to the camper tonight and have candles, cheese crackers and wine (beer for him) and just talk about it. printed out these pages will review them and ask him the questions from Nonoreexcuses. My daughter doesn't know the exact details of whats going on, I only said "your dad doesn't love me anymore He's not attracted to me" I think she has the general Idea as she gave me some Cosmopolitan Magazines and said this may help. I plan on reading them at work. Anyway I am going to text him and tell him I am in the camper and to be quiet so my Husband does not find out. When he gets out there I am going to tell him that he is the only one I want to be with, so I am making him my boyfriend on the side. Will let you know how it goes.

I am sorry if telling him that I would find it someplace else sounded so mean but when you try everything. I have even resorted to walking around the house in my birthday suit and nothing. We still enjoy each others company. We talk for all hours of the night about everything. It just seems like since the girls are not home on the week-ends and we aren't sneaking to do something he just not interested. We go out a few times a month, I end up having a few drinks and i have to attack him and the next day he says you really are a sex-aholic which hurts my feelings. I have even suggested Viagra, (i even admit I have though about getting a herbal supplement to put in his food but was afraid that if he had an allergic reaction or something I would have to fess up to what I did and I'm not that good at being deceitful). Thanks Vanessa1031 I will try that. |

Being tall has it's advantages. Yes you can reach the top shelf at the grocery store. You can see over the croud at a concert. You can be a model. It also has disadvantages: Finding a guy taller then you. Sitting in a little sports car. finding pants that fit your waist and are long enough. You can get a pair of pants shortened but you can't get one lengthened, Or not being able to wearing one of those cute dresses because instead of going to just above your knees they go just below your butt cheeks. Just had a flash back: I remember being 13 I was taller then anyone my age, My girlfriend fixed me up with a boy(shorter then me). We (her and her boyfriend, me and my date) went to the park her boyfriend picked her up and carried her down a hill (now she was short and very petite) Well the boy I was with wanted to do the same thing. With much protesting I let him picked me up. We went down the hill and he fell forward right on me. Everyone laughed. Needless to say I didn't date till I was 17 and he had to be a very buff guy. Which was cutting off my nose to spite my face, as I missed out on dating some nice boys. Don't miss out on life and having fun. You can never go back and change it. If you like wearing heals wear them, I say wear the shoe if they fit, If everyone looks at you, It's because they are jealous and wish they could look so good.

Original Post by crazydiamondchrysalis: Thanks for the clarification I have diverticulosis (which never really goes away). I try not to think about it Diverticulitis is what you get when you have diverticulosis . Diverticulitis very very painful. I understand what your sister going threw. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I suffered for 3 yrs with it. my PCP said it was all in my head. I would be so badly bloated that I looked 6 months pg. He kept telling me to drink more h2o. and use enema, and MOM which both stopped working. I ended up in hospital. I thought I was going to die. Had the diverticulitis and Bladder, kidney infections so bad my liver was not working they said if I had waited one more day I wouldn't be here. I went home after 4 days only because I missed my family. They wanted me to stay longer, But I thought if I was going to die I wanted to die at home. I had IV bag of antibiotics attached to me for 5 more days at home. I say the reason I made it was because of my girls they laid on the bed with me watched television and we chatted about every thing. They kept telling me how much they loved me and I would tell them. |

I have problem with diverticulitus or diverticulosis ( not sure which one is the worst) It got so bad I had to be hospitalized for 4 days the 1st time and 3 days the second, and IBS. I would be consipated for a week and have diahrea for days, then constipation and back and fourth. I finally found a good dr. and she told me to eat a cup of fiber one cereal with some other food I chose Oatmeal (flavored) with psyllium husk (2 tablespoons). I mix all three with plenty of water almost making it like soup and chock it down with a full glass of h2o (I chose 20 oz. bottle to be sure I am getting enough) I don't particularly like it but it keeps me moving and haven't had much of a problem (haven't had to be hospitalized). I also take two tablespoons of benefiber in a cup of hot Coffee or tea. I get two sips in the am and I am off to the bathroom, I usually go two or three times a day (lg. soft well formed bm movements). I have lost about 10 lbs and have kept it off. When I had my last colonsocopy Dr asked me what I was doing as everything looked good except for a few polyps. Its a lot cheaper a pound of psyillium husk is about $3-$4, and benifiber (wal-mart brand) $13 Lasts me about 6 months. Good Luck Cathy |

Which why protein powder do you drink, I am allergic to Soy. I got one from the local super market. Not sure how good it is. Someone said it was not a good choice too high in calories. But I couldn't find anything else we live in small town. Have a wal-mart but is the brand they carry ok. I don't want to spend the money on something not good for you. Thanks Cathy |

There is an exercise where you hold a broom above your head and bend from side to side. I did a search on the best love handle exercises and found it. I have been doing it for a few weeks now I do this exercise 4 or 5 times a day to one song. The first few days I was extremely sore so I am assuming that it doing something. It seems like they have gotten smaller. I just can't get rid of my belly ( have had 4 children). I use the ab-lounger which seems to have helped some. My waists is getting smaller with no weight loss but still got a belly. Have fun and Good luck Cathy |

My suggestion Go to wal-mart and use the scale there wont cost you a dime. That's what I did. I also didn't have a tape measure so I used my cord for my cell phone used masking tape to mark my waist. hips and thighs sizes then I could check to see if they went down or not. Good luck, |

I am not a collage student but I do have quite a night life. I always log in my food I am going to eat for that day, and I know pretty much what my activity will be for that night at work. Example: Tuesday's I grocery shop takes 2.5 hrs. plus 30 min, to load and unload grocery and carry in and about 1 hr to put away. The rest of the night is pretty much a nursing night, so I add that then I know that I will drink say 6 double Shots of J.d and diet coke so I add that it. Then I see what it says for an estimate if I am low I just walk to and from the bar and I am right in range. I don't drink any fancy drinks or shots. My problem is When I drink I want to eat, pizza, chips, candy bars, and so on. So I started eating something with psyllium husk in it before I go out fills me right up so I don't eat. I usually go out 3 to 4 nights a week and I have been loosing, maintaining. Good luck, |

Omg You all have given me so many movies to watch I printed the web pages out and went right to blockbuster and add all the ones I haven't seen Plus I got a really big chuckle out of the Marley and me debate. I never thought asking about movies would cause such a problem. Anyway I saw Marley and Me, and me being naive did not know that dog died. I bought it, Because my 7 yr old begged me to get it. Well she is well aware of life and death of all living things, ( She's had to deal with the passing of a grandfather, grandmother and aunt and an uncle and a full litter of kittens born too early). Well I took the movie back after we watched it. She cried for two days Refused to go to school. All because she didn't want her dog Landon to die. I had to finally promise her he was not going to die anytime soon. Which is not something I normally do because you never know whats going to happen, So I wish it had been spoiled for us and someone had told me how much of a tear jerker it was. Would have saved my daughter such an upset. |

I live with 3 of my Boyfriends 1 was only short term it was more out of convenience then anything, neither one of us wanted to live at home and we couldn't afford to be out on our own. Really did not change a thing he had his life I had mine. I wanted more and he could not/would not commit to more. Did not really argue just knew it was time to get out. Mind you I never cheated just moved in with family. Live in Relationships out of convenience never work. (was a good lesson for me) The next one was 2 yrs. Bad relationship all together was a fiance, I wouldn't married him till we lived together first wanted to be sure we could get along after the first live together as we were having problems from the start. Never did get along he was too abusive and I would not stand there and take it. (a very good lesson for me) Number three was the charm we Lived together for 2 years been married 23 yrs., 4 daughters. Didn't really argue the first 3 yrs we where together, then we moved in with his mom. Argued ever since, but still together never changed how we feel about each other and our ability to communicate. We still love each other and act like we dating. Just argue which is sometimes healthy for a relationship as long as no one gets physically or emotionally hurt. Besides we still love to make up I thinks that is the best part. I still get flowers every once in a while, he stopped putting candy on my pillow now it's fresh fruit. And I still take dinner to him at work 2 or 3 times a week. If my husband left today I would not be devastated I would and could carry on, (although if he passed away I do not think I could handle it). He always jokes that it took too long to train me why would he want out now. And I say if I moved out I would call him for a Booty Call. By the way he would get my girls, (He definitely would not have a life taking care of them (I am joking, I could not give up my daughters). Oh we still date once or twice a month. We have Date night and get all dolled up and go out. We sometimes miss a few months of dating and I can really tell that it is time to go out. I wouldn't change a thing learned a lot about myself and what I wanted, Mostly what I didn't want. Just try to remember If it don't work out that It's time to get out, don't stay in a live in relationship to long if it is not working. I never thought of the break-ups as a failure only as a lesson and tryed to learn from it. |

Thanks for the clarification on that, I didn't know that. I never usually bother to look at the date a thread was started I just look at when last post was, and I see so much of "Why don't you do a search on that instead of posting the same question", which I am sorry to say I didn't do a couple of times but after getting my hand slapped a few times realized this. as a matter of fact when I saw this post I almost posted to it when I did a search on Dogs. but didn't because It wasn't what I wanted to talk about. I just don't understand why someone has to be so mean about It. Maybe she really didn't know that you shouldn't do it. I didn't till you told me being new at this and all. She could have just explained it like you did. |

Original Post by alibsam: Maybe she did a search on dog bites and that's the thread that come up and instead of posting a new thread she just added to this post wanting to talk to someone about her daughter and the dog. Who cares why? Do you have to be so mean??? There was no reason to ask why she joined calorie count. We could ask the you the same thing. imtrev4 I am sorry to hear about your daughter. Hope all is well. You are right you never know what to expect from your pets you just have to be cautious and hope the will never bite but once they do. You can be rest assured they will again. And next time the child may not be as lucky. I am not saying the dog needs to be put down but they should be placed somewhere with no children. Or children should no longer be allowed around the dog. I feel sorry for your sister-in-law and the pain it causes her as she probably really loves her dog and niece, and knows it was clearly unprovoked on you daughters part. Maybe it was the noise from the bike or just that the dog wanted to chase her on it and thought she was teasing her. Your right no one wins in a situation, like this everyone gets hurt. I would hate to see what my husband would do if one of our dogs attacked one of our children or grandchildren. It would devastate all involved. I think: The mom in the above story was clearly to blame so the dog should be removed from the home or the child, as to prevent further abuse of the dog and to pervent the child from being bitten again. |

I was not really asking for proof. I was just asking what You Think. Not whether someone is right or wrong but your Feeling. Belief to me Is Faith. I have faith/belief, that my children will make good choices and even when they may not make the choice I would make, that it is the right choice for them, that all people are not bad they just make choices that I would not make. That when I am at the end of my rope that everything will work out. Whether I am right or wrong that's my belief. Belief doesn't have to be proven its not fact It's just how you feel, and feelings are not fact, they can change. Fact or proof is something that never changes that can be proven. Belief is Hope their is a place we go to when we die, Hope that our pets go to that same place.
My original post was I was wondering how many people out there think that animals have a Spirit like we do??? Do you think they go to heaven??? I sure hope they do. Do you think they Pick us or we pick them, or just because??? |

| The Lounge | what does it take to make a "bad" dog? | May 30 2009 08:26 (UTC) |
|
I don't thinks it's neither bad dog nor bad owner. I think it's just personality differences. I have had lots of dogs growing up and have only had to get rid of 4 for bad behavior, 3 German Shepard's and one mixed ??, I love them too that's the sad part. my first was a white Shepard (he followed me home one day). reminded me of the one from that Jody Foster movie, well he acted just like that one. He never attacked anyone in the family but cornered the neighbor in the hall and she call the cops and they shot him ( I was 9 so it was 35 yrs ago). Next one I was 13 and he was following me home and got hit by a car and I was crying the guy that hit him took him to the vet and paid the bill. The guy said I could keep him but if I decided to get rid of him I had to call him and he would come get him. Well this one was big he could jump a 6ft fence and not touch the top. He would steal the neighbors cloths of their cloths line and bring them home, my step-father went to discipline us one day and he attacked him. He loved us kids hated my step-father Good dog the best I ever had didn't get beat the whole year I had him. He finally made us get rid of him ( he went to the man who paid the vet bill like promised) The last one he some how found my House about 4 yrs ago ( Humm I have 22 she was 18 at the time I wounder if he followed her home some how too LOL) Anyway we own a business I couldn't keep him he was great with other dogs and kids he just didn't like some of our customers (nipped two of them) so I gave him to a good friend of ours who has a farm.I had one dog Thunder bolt Bless her heart, ( she's in heaven now) but was given to me because she couldn't get along with my sister's dog at the time I had P.J (puppy Jr.) and Ginger. Well my sister was going to have her shot (not only illegal Unfair, and inhumane). I took her she got along fine with my dogs, also with my friends dogs, she was fine as long as I was walking her if another dog came around, but one day she Went after another dog, and she too was leashed. I just think she was somehow threatened whether or not she thought it was going to hurt me or what. I had to put he down. At the time we lived in a apartment house and the landlord said the dog or us. I couldn't afford to move or find anyone to take her so... I still get pissed cause we found a house 6 months later, I wish we had found it earlier. I now have a Wiener dog, he was abused by previous owner said he hated kids. Well he loves my seven yr old and my granddaughter and all the other kids that come over. I caulk that one up to the previous owner had a 5 yr old and she tried to drowning him in the pool so he didn't like her 10 kids. I don't think I would neither. My Ginger girl I have had her for 16yrs she is 20 yrs old at least, she was owned by my mom and my stepfather well she couldn't be house broke and he was not to nice to her. I was there one day and he beat her I got pissed picked her up and said I was taking her home and if they ever owned another dog again I was calling the SPCA on them. Needless to say she has only had a few accidents in the house (when daughters to lazy to let her out) but no big problem, a little shy with men but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out. She loves my husband follows him all over. We also have Landon a 6month Old Lab mix. Each dog is so loved by all of us My 7 yr old and all three dogs are inseparable they are constant companions to her. If you ask her what her best friends names are she will say Landon, Wiener, and Ginger Schultz. They are family. Oh PJ who passes away after 24 yrs. She was an SPCA dog. She never barked in the house or at anyone accept one person and every time he came around we had to kennel her because I believe she would have bit him needless to say he didn't come around much, and he was not a nice person, so it didn't break my heart. And Sparky another SPCA dog who lived with us for 20 wonderful years. Bless his heart he never did stop bolting out the door when you opened it. I think too it might on occasion be just the dog and breeding. My sister-in-law had a Cocker spaniel it bit all three of my daughters and went after my grand-daughter it attacked each one of them without provocation what so ever. I personally never liked that dog from the day I first saw it. They never abused it took it out, fed it, took it on walks this dog was not lacking in anything. Finally they put it down when the neighbor got attacked and threatened to sue. So I have see dogs have personality conflict with other dogs and humans, They also seem to just come to me and I know that its a dog I am suppose to have. Some times no matter how much you love them they can just be difficult, it's like a kid how can You have 4 kids they are all from the same two parents, you raise them the same you treat them the same but one is a handful. Just plain personality. Its nothing you could have done or changed its just the way they were made. I could get a lot deeper about this subject but I think animals have a spirit and are meant to be with us to teach us a lesson or to learn a lesson. It's life or spiritual growth. I don't take it personally I just love them all the same and try to remember that I have to do what is best and safe for them and everyone around them. Sorry its so long but I like to talk and get passionate about animals. |

Oh I am so happy you pup is doing good. Our Wiener dog (Named "Wiener") got hit on Sunday. We didn't know it till late on that night He must have gotten out without no one knowing it Hubby and 7yr old found him. We can't figure out how he even got on the porch (vet said he must really love us to get himself up there in the shape he was in). I got home from work and he could sit up but not walk , when you picked him up he yelped, no touching him in the hind end. I got him to eat a little and drink. He slept on my lap all night (notice I said he slept I was up all night) On Monday he still wasn't walking. He was eating and drinking a little. Took him to the vets (we have excellent vet he opened for us on Memorial day and only Charged $45.00 + $2.50 for antibiotics and pain med. Its at his house and he knows we don't have much money, yet we take good care of our animals )(we have ****-zue/poodle (wont let me spell it had to put dashes thinks I am swearing LOL) almost 20yrs old named Ginger) Anyway The vet said to take him home give him lots of TLC, he has broken pelvis, shattered upper left leg, broken right leg, and bruised belly. He wagged his tail, and has feelings in both his paws meaning no broken back. Nothing can really be done for these kinds of breaks. We been giving him Pain medication, two days later he whines to go out we pick him up take him out he does his business and comes back in he's walking only short distance and eating. We so happy he going to make it. It's amazing what love can do. Tonight he barked for first time to go out, and walking. Keeping him kenneled due to other animals all thought Ginger lets me know when he needs something (Gets us when he has to go out and runs around the kennel, then to the food dish when he hungry. I think she loves him too, she even cleans him so gently when we bring him out). But It wont be long and he will be sleeping in bed with 7yr old again. Which he wants to do now, but too early afraid he fall off the bed or she roll over on him. I only hope he stays away from the rode now. Ginger got hit 12 yrs ago and now stays away from the road although I think she partially blind and defiantly deaf (unless it just selective like the Hubby and kids) Best Wishes to you and yours Cathy |

OMG I am LMAO. I had bad day at work came home and logged in everything I ate along with My activity and I didn't do enough. I read this post and I think I have just boosted my activity. How much do you get for Laughing??? When I read It it made me ask the Questions as to, How my house gets so messed up when I clean it be for I go to bed and I wake up and its a disaster? Or Where did all the dishes come from I washed them before I left for work? Okay and the famous one Where Did all those socks go I know I put in a pair when I put them in the washer and now I only got one of each, is it the washer or dryer???? As For the Cords getting tangled I have that problem with my vcr, dvd, satellite and tv wires so I kinda fixed it also with the Christmas tree lights. I used old toilet paper rolls I put a slit down one side then wrap the cords around them, paper towel rolls work two. Or you can use a zip tie and then stuff them inside it to keep them separated. Hope this helps. THANKS FOR THE LAUGHS ON THIS ONE @:0) |
