My husband was in a nasty car accident last friday. He was lucky to come out with only some pulled muscles, bruises, and small cuts. A younger girl was looking right while making a left ( really dumb I know) and totally T-Boned...

dpurchas That is really scary. I just had almost the exact same thing happen to me. My husband was on his way back from his brother's house a couple of months ago and was hit by a drunk driver. She was turning left and my husband had the right of way and she turned...

I just went through a few boxes of clothes that my son wore when he was a baby, and I brought them to a consignment shop to be resold. A lot of them were given to me, and some I gave to a friend who has a baby, but she has a girl,...

dpurchas I haven't been able to part with my daughter's baby clothes yet. Part of me hopes that I'll have another girl and part of me just can't let go of those days in her life. I think eventually I'll probably sell her clothes when I know for sure I won't have any...

My Dad was an alcoholic and my daughter is well aware of the fact from when she was a child and saw some of what my mother went through. Now she is married to a man who is putting her through almost the same exact thing and she's...

dpurchas Wow - I sympathize. I have dealt with this with my husband. There are times he realizes he is drinking too much and will try to get better, and then there are times when it gets really bad. Now that we have a child - he has mellowed out. I don't know anymore...

dpurchas I think there are more people out there like you than you know. I as a principle don't drink. I have a young daughter and I don't like the idea of not being at full mental capacity for her if she needs me. Once in a while I do like to have a glass of wine but...

Ok, so I love watching the History Channel. So many interesting things to see. But this particular show was about the 2012 Mayan Doomsday prediction. In this show they mention the date from the Mayan Calendar predicting the end of...

dpurchas Totally. I have mixed feelings though. Part of me would rather know so that I could do a little to be as prepared as possible, but the other half is like you said, I just don't want to know when its my time. Ultimately you have to live life like everyday is...

dpurchas Those are my favorites too. Plus the food channel. I am constantly flipping between those. There are some really neat shows on those channels. Definitely more healthy to worry about the stuff we can do something about. Although I am a control freak, so that...

dpurchas Too true. The last few years I have been just facinated with any of the natural disaster shows. The one about the megavolcano under Yellowstone was really good. And of course, it could go at any minute...:) These shows are fun to watch, and no, I don't think I...

dpurchas Mine too. Althought it would be nice to have an excuse not to pay bills anymore. LOL! I think that is really the main message of any of these show is that life is short - live it to the fullest.

dpurchas That's kind of what they alluded to that it was an 'as we know it' kind of thing. But there isn't anything anyone can do about it at this point if it is going to happen, so your right, dwelling isn't going to do anyone any good. These shows are mostly for...

dpurchas Yeah - I have a yound daughter too. I don't like to think of stuff like this happening in her lifetime or that of several generations. But I guess if it happens, it happens. Nothing is certain in life. :)

dpurchas Wow. That is a great topic and kind of hits close to home for me. I had my first love when around 16 as well. We worked together for a while and then just dated. Eventually we got engaged but then things kind of fell apart from there. We were really too young...

dpurchas I also agree with you. We have so many problems already in this country without having to watch out for the toes of people that aren't even supposed to be here. I think we should be cracking down more on stuff like that and concentrate on fixing the low...

dpurchas Very true! There really are no guarantees. I hadn't heard of the thing in 2000 though. Thanks for that tidbit. For anyone that dwells on stuff like this, that would make them feel better I am sure. I know there have been tons of people predicting this stuff...

dpurchas Ok, Please tell me that wasn't the spider you were talking about! I think I'd faint dead away. For me, I am really afraid of spiders. If they are at least a couple of feet away, I yell for my husband to kill the spider, but if it is coming towards me within...

dpurchas That's kind of where I am sitting. I am not one to put too much stock in those things normally. There have been so many. These days though, so many are talking about such things that it makes you wonder. I'd hate to be unprepared; and that is only 5 years...

dpurchas Wow. That is really sad! People are so self involved anymore they just don't notice or if they do, don't want to get involved. I would like to think I would stop to help someone that needed help like that. You know though - there is another side that is even...
