True. My company has discontinued our print catalog (which was massive) for an electronic version. Now we are supposed to send customers the flashdrive instead...and when they plug it in and go to use it, it will download auotmatic updates to the catalog.

Fascinating.

Do tell

Apparently you are not supposed to get married until you find a man who is just as Godly as YOU are - that way no one will ever get divorced. Single parents are completely against God's will. And we all need to put on our grown-up panties and "do right" and stop being so tolerant.

Um yeah.

Okay.

I was pretty put off by her statements and I've never even BEEN divorced or been a single parent.

My neighbor and I talk about this a lot, and basically came up with (sorry this is going to be religious for 30seconds but then I will go back to normal) "Mixed families are harder because God never intended for divorce/single parenting." We both have mixed families and spend many an evening over a glass of wine talking about all of this. Its a touchy area and hard not to get offended. I like to be a duck and let everything roll off my back, because everyone is entitled to their own veiwpoint. Granted, only mine is right

but they can still have their own.

This is our first round with croup in an infant. Ella had it last winter, but she was 5, so not as scary. I just took a shower with him so we could be presentable for our Dr's appt in an hour and I was hoping the steam would help him. He's not eating, but he'll nurse, so I know he's getting something. He's finally getting some sleep. I hope he doesn't make a habit of getting croup. My husband wanted me to take him to the ER last night, it's scary when they're struggling to breathe.

Sparkles, I'm sorry about your Emma dog. I hope she comes home.

Bows, just reading your to-do list makes me want to nap.

Good morning, Nella. Or is it a bad morning for you?

Just got a text from Miss Belle
... the doc sent us to the hospital. Jacob is doing better after a few breathing treatments. They're keeping us overnight, but he looks much better than he did.

She wanted me to let you all know.

Oh no need to apologize. It wasn't necessarily that her message was bad - it was the way she chose to put it out there.
