Vicki I hope she isn't going to let her cheap father give her away....He doesn't deserve the priviledge.

Unfortunately, that's the one priviledge he still gets to keep. How do these men do it? How do they get away with being such bast****, and still get to be held up in the eyes of their children?

I've often wondered that myself but I think it's important for my son to have a father figure no matter how blissfully ignorant he is. It doesn't take away from my relationship with my son.

I would be humiliated to not give anything toward my children's welfare or wedding but for some reason, it doesn't bother these guys. I'm just thankful that I'm in a position to help.

I guess it's all relative.

I remember when I got married, it was on a mountain, and I was wearing a prom dress, the zipper totally ripped open as I got out of the car, there were ants in my bouquet which was fresh picked for me by a new friend, and I saw a coyote as I got out of the car...which means look out, you're about the make the biggest mistake of your life...which it was, except for my beautiful son.

Now with regard to him getting married. He said that if he ever got married it would be a ceremony like in Braveheart...that's the Celt in him....a spiritual ceremony. He doesn't believe in tradition. Neither did I.

However, some traditional weddings can be so beautiful.

Looks like money won't be an issue with him...it never is.

Thought I'd share that.

Gee Leigha, do you think God was trying to give you some signs? How funny.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I FINALLY found a dress to wear to my sons wedding. Was going to wear a beautiful pantsuit but wasn't really comfy about that so my daughter and I went from store to store to store yesterday until we finally found just the right dress. Light pink and very flowing, longer in the back and has a matching shawl. Break out the self tanning lotion! My white skin doesn't look that great with pink.

Dianne, That sounds lovely...how will the pink go with your bruises? Or are they all healed now?

And do you have a pink thong to go with it? (Sorry, couldn't resist...Dee's story is STILL making me chuckle!)

You said the wedding's at the end of the month. Is it close to you, or will you be travelling to get there? I hope your son has a special wedding, full of love of family and friends, and wonderful memories for everyone there.

I still have some bruising on my knee and can't put pressure on it. Probably should've had the doc look at it.

And YES, I do happen to have the perfect pink thong to wear. I only wear thongs and I know some of the women here think it's disgusting.

Wedding will be in Northern Arizona, where I basically grew up. It's going to be like a family reunion because my sister and her husband are coming from France and also her grown children from TX. I'm so excited!

Hi Dianne
YUP...and I missed all of them for seven years. Taught me a lesson...now I watch for signs like a hawk whenever I have to make a decision. I watch my front door, back door, side doors...anything and everything.

Talk about refining awareness...even became psychic so I wouldn't miss any signs...how's that for careful. They say to balance something you usually go from one extreme to another and then balance out somewhere in the middle.

I'm still waiting for the middle! Can never be too careful! That's where feelings are great though...learning to trust your feelings! That took a long time! Finding the balance! Oh lord, it's in the door under my feet, the one I forgot to look at. HA! Ha! Have a nice day Dianne!

With love
Leigha
