No, No!! That's the Hanky panky the other poster mentioned... Get your dances straight, laura-ven!!

Forget tall and handsome!! Focus on character and nature!!
My former husband was tall and handsome, well-educated, made lots of money, had "presidential" hair. But he was controlling and cold-hearted, could not give praise, affection, support, and was a lousy lover and withheld his lousy lovemaking as punishment for any perceived infraction.
Current husband and soul mate is short, built like a roll of sausage, not much hair, weak chin, very intellectual and intelligent, was a philosophy major but due to financial and family challenges did not obtain a college degree. Doesn't make a lot of money either. BUT he is the kindest, most gentle man I've ever met. He is always supportive, no matter what, and treats me like a goddess/queen. And that little man knows how to curl your toes and doesn't know when to stop... if you know what I mean...
I couldn't be happier with my short stubby little fellow, who is the smartest person I know but doesn't have the paper to prove it.

to address the few comments that alluded to the kids not having proper manners as regards to referring to people as "fat"...this is how I feel--I don't think it is a good idea or even healthy for parents to teach their kids that "fat" is a bad word or something bad to call someone...in fact, if they are taught that, then maybe they won't say the "f" word, but when they see someone who is fat, they will think there is something "bad" about that person...is that really a better attitude or lesson to teach your children?...heck, most of the time I call myself "fat" without mincing words, because at over 240 lbs., I certainly am fat...this is the thing, though--even if kids are taught that it isn't healthy to be fat, they should also be taught that human beings come in all shapes and sizes (as well as all colors and ages and religions and accents, etc.)...just because someone is different from what you are used to, that doesn't mean they are bad people or that you shouldn't respect them...*that* is the lesson I would want my kids to learn

The breakouts can be caused by a high Protein diet. I experienced breakouts during the first few months, and I am old and dried up! Until then I had not had a zit in decades! It will pass. Just like all the other maladies you are experiencing.

Whether PTO will be required is a company-specific issue. The law simply states that the employer may require the employee to use accrued paid time off. You will be much better served to ask HR in your company, as they will have the answers you need. All anyone on this forum can tell you is how it was in their company, which is of no use to you.

I was not taught good dental hygiene as a child, and that coupled with weak enamel, led to massive work at age 19. Since then, and I am now 60, I have taken extremely good care of my teeth and gums. Obviously I lacked in other areas, such as weight control.
I say do what you must to get the smile you want and deserve. You are still young at 40, not old!! You still have a good 40-50 years left if things go as they should. Nothing is more noticeable yo me than bad or sparse teeth!

I get a few but obviously not as many as you. You've been around a long time and your success is evident.
I just answer as patiently as I can.

the only thing I can think to add is that if the reason he broke up with you has to do with mood swings from this temporary life situation, he isn't the type of partner you want to see you through "thick and thin" and all the crises that life can bring...I realize that doesn't help with the hurt and sadness, but perhaps it can add something to your perspective

I'm so sorry, but don't fret. I'm thinkin' the boys will be standing in line for your attention sooner than you realize!

The tire wasn't weak - it just hit something in the road! patch it up and get back on the road.

Are you sure your PCP did ALL the bloodwork the surgeon's office would do? My surgeon's office performs very detailed blood work for Vitamins, Iron, etc. that my normal blood work does not include. Given that we are prone to B12, D and K deficiencies I wouldn't skip my follow-ups for anything! I intend to keep mine through at least two years, if not longer.

Me, too. And they have some great firming potions too. None are cheap. All are worth it.
