This was awesome. Thanks for sharing!

I'm struggling right now not to just say, "never again." I'm glad to hear Mrs found another love.

Thank you for sharing! I'll watch for him in my dreams.

Thank you- this is EXACTLY what I'm feeling. Appreciate the support!

My daddy is like this too. They have a dobie going through the same thing so we're mourning together.

You guys are seriously the greatest. Thank you for all the support!

MIB only person here whose nose changes when she loses weight? Her costumer spoke about how much weight she was losing every day. No wonder her face and nose look different. Whenever you're working like that sweating like that and losing weight and strictly through that strenuous exercise and rigid diet your nose is…

Thanks everyone. He is practically human...I tell him to say bye and he goes to every person in the room to be petted then comes back to me, giving me the, "lets blow this popsicle stand" look. Now...those eyes are showing the pain. So, steak, chicken, doggie ice cream, a chocolate party- he steals malt balls if they…

Your dog sounds awesome!

My Aussie is wicked smaht. He's also ridiculously gorgeous AND emotionally supportive- he got me through college, bad breakups, lost job, wedding planning, pregnancy, relocating...eleven years of ups and downs. I could face it all with Dan by my side. He's been limping for a few weeks, and after arthritis meds…

Glad someone said it.

Liz Lemon would approve.

However you want to self identify, curvy, chubby, fat, goddess, etc...shopping can suck. Lane Bryant sucks. I hit onestopplus.com along with eloquii and Kiyona. Tons of brands, wide range of pricing (cheap to Lafayette 148 which is fairly expensive), and you can get some steals. There are some tent styles and…

We would also be able to identify true physiological issues, vs. a need for support, education, practice, etc.

Finally, growing up on a dairy farm is useful! Cows are bred, fed, and focused on succesful lactation with a quality product. If women 1) were given a rich, balanced diet specifically designed to enhance lactation, 2) were able to focus solely on lactation and family bonding for 9 months straight in a low-stress…

Oh wow. I can't top help from the groom. That's rough. But I puked at my parents' house in my old bathroom..and my mom had to help my husband get me into the tub. So...yeah, still humiliating. My mom gave me the, "you come from a long line of alcoholics on your father's side," speech. It was mortifying, with my…

I alternated with my flavored water all night. Got tipsy but not obnoxious, and walked home across the street with my hubby and sleeping son. Greatest NYE ever... Maybe 31 is the yr of wisdom. In July, I got catatonic drunk at a friends wedding as well, and my 16 year old niece saw me the next day- SO embarassing. …

Eta:article IV also address the issue.

It's a 10th amendment issue. Federal government cannot step outside explicitly granted rights. Not that that has stopped the government but that's the argument.

The issue is that this is a right not explicitly granted to the Federal government, and therefore reserved for state decisions by our Tenth amendment. That's actually why so many people have a problem with DOMA and debate its constitutionality. By allowing one state or to refuse to recognize a legal marriage from…
