crochet flip flops
Comments (5)Msmeow, I saw the heading for your post this morning, but didn't take the time to look. Of course, those are a bit casual for me to wear to work at the law office. But I finally decided to look at the pattern and I'm really glad I did! Yes, they are cute, and I think I'm going to fix up some of my flip-flops, but the reason I'm glad I looked was for that little tip on how to keep the yarn from tangling when you are using both ends of a skein. Thank you. Whenever I have had to do that I have had to stop every so often and untangle the danged mess. I guess I won't have to do that anymore, thanks to you. Bravo....See MoreChild Flip-Flop
Comments (8)Thanks so much you guys for the variety of perspectives. And Scarlett, thank you for that thought, this is my biggest fear that he'll take years to finally make up his mind and it will be decision by default, or we'll have to do IVF (which I dread, I know so many people who have had to do it and the process sounds awful), or my parents will no longer be around, etc. For me the sooner the better. By the way, I finally coaxed the 'reasons' out of him, and aside from just basically enjoying the freedom right now, I think 'diapers' came up about two dozen times...he can't see past that for some reason, you'd think diapers was a pit of poisonous vipers to hear him talk about it! So after a week of fighting, making-up, heartache, tears and laughter, we agreed to put the plans on hold for one year, and then we could revisit it. I'll be 31 at that time, so hopefully with child by 33, I can live with that. In the meantime I'm going to keep busy with hobbies, traveling and reading, in the hopes that I'll have no regrets if I use the time wisely to do things that would be more difficult to do with kids. Me time! Try to turn lemons into lemonade, what else can you do, right? Thanks again, everyone...I love this site...so many positive insights, and so few judgements.

Comments (27)Susan_on, would you be able to share the recipe for the homemade concoction you spray with? We have problems with mice at our camp every fall/winter. Currently, I put moth balls in the campers and cabins when we close camp in the fall, but then we are left with the smell of the moth balls to air out in the spring. Would love to hear a good alternative! Jemdandy, the heck with thoroughly cleansing! I hate the filthy little buggers so much, that if I catch one in a trap (which happens a few times a year at the camp), I handle it the same way that I do dog droppings! I put my hand in a plastic bag, pick up the trap, pull the bag down around it, tie it shut, and straight to the garbage! Yep, I know I spend more on mouse traps that way, but I just don't want to rehandle them after they've caught a dirty disease spreading mouse! I know, I'm extreme, but I sure don't like 'em! Never have! I found a dead mouse in the spare bedroom the other day, right out in the middle of the floor. That was sure a puzzle. We live in an old, turn of the century (1900) house with an unfinished basement. We've been here five years. We do get mice in the basement, and other 'livestock' (a chipmonk once or twice) too, but have never seen a sign of one on the main floor or upstairs! All I can figure out is that maybe he came into the house in a box of something??? But even so, how did he end up dead on the floor? We once lived in a house for a number of years without any real mouse problems. Then, one winter they got really bad. Some came into the house, but the worst part was the ones that were in the walls. We could hear them there all the time. They actually chewed a few small holes in the ceiling panels! Poison, and lots of it, was the only way we made a dent on the populations. I wonder if someone burned down a barn in that neighborhood!...See MoreDo you wear flip flops?
Comments (52)PlanetShoes.com also has Keen shoes/sandals, as does ZBSports.com. "If you're stubbing your toes in them they are probably too small." Not necessarily so. I have never, ever, worn shoes that are too small. I have no bunions, corns, or callouses on my feet; and often get compliments from total strangers that I have very pretty feet. Yet I can stub my toe into things like you wouldn't believe......See Moreshotzy52
