Hey Kerry, I could use a favor if you have a sec... Given my lack of technical prowess...can you teach me how to insert all my threads as links in my sig line? I'll be starting a new thread next week, and as you know, I'm a little busy over here. It's a low priority actually, just something I've wanted to do for a while. I'm off for a pedicure...something I'm very good at! Peace.

The foyer is quite extravagant for sure. Scarface is a interesting visual, for sure. It would be nice at times to unload a machine gun on someone.
As for the gifts, D wanted to buy gifts for X and her new fiancee, so I allowed her to do so. She bought X an inexpensive $7 pair of earrings and a necklace and got the guy a pack of pens so he could correct papers. In fact, we spent more on the gift for the dog than the two of them, so I wasn't too bothered by it all.
I always tried to make sure that Matthew got his mother a gift for Xmas and her B-Day...just to teach Matthew the art of giving...and I do the same with Caleigh...I can only imagine what it would be like for a child to want to get a parent a gift and not be able to do so just because their parents are pissed because of a divorce..
Yeah, I probably should have taken the kids xmas shopping, but they got back from Maui without enough time. I do let them buy their mom gifts when they ask me as we did during our Thanksgiving trip to Canada. The hardest part was letting them buy a gift for old man Ed, who they now call daddy.
ouch...daddy??? For the record D9 did not ask ...so I did not buy anything...for mommy or ....whoever (by the way I don't want to start a war here and I know you are laid back ...however, there is no effen way D9 will call anybody daddy but me and maybe her father in law ....one day)
I dont think there is anything I can do in regards to the "2nd daddy" that my daughter says. I am not sure my son says that. He does call me Eddy sometimes after I have picked them up. They do know that I dont care for that.
My plan has just been to not try to force my opinion of their mother and Ed on them and let them come to their own conclusions over time.
In other news, S9 was reading the Guiness book of records and asked me what the word "Virgin" means. I told him it is not something we need to talk about now. That of course was not good enough for him and he insisted I tell him. My answer..."Ask your mother" and I quickly changed the subject. Anyone else know how to answer that one without going into much detail? Could I just say it is a person that has not ridden a bicycle?
I am meeting a new lady on Sunday for coffee while S9 is at Chinese class. She is a lawyer (for some kid centric organization), likes to hike and travel, has an S9 and D7 (just like me) and her STBXH cheated. She looks pretty cheerful and classy in her pictures. Maybe I will show her the Chinese school as she said her daughter is interested in learning Chinese.
