Vote for MBs Quilt and possibly win a prize

Hi D'Ann........ It took me a while to figure it out too, BUT I got it now. Take a look under the quilt itself and there should be an icon that says something like 'VOTE FOR THIS QUILT'. Select that and then fill out the info and you are complete. I still dont know anything about the rules of winning in Florida. It bums me out to even think there would be a reason to not include Florida.

hey guys- i got some samples today Looking at the faux wood b/c i dont want to worry about warping- we get A LOT of sun! Looking at a creamy off white color- so it will be lighter than the walls but not stark white-- the two i am looking at are HD Faux polymer soft cream (* i love the color b/c its in the same tone as the walls but definatly a lighter version-- but there is not real "wood grain look" its painted... is that ok? 2nd is Levlour Visions Faux Wood Sand Blasted-- color is not quite as creamy as the first one-- but it does have more texture and graining.... Thoughts Last thought of the day-- Will i really love wood blinds? I love feeling open-- and these blinds are HEAVY so i dont really see opening them all the way-- more i see just using the wand to open and close them but not lifting them.... Do you love the look? Do you think its right for my large family room? I wish i could decide!!! And do you think the painted color will look good-- creamy ivory....

My 18 year old step son is ruining my marriage
Q
Comments (18)
Sweeby, I tend to agree with you. I truely believe my SS is a sociopath. I have researched it extensively and he is dead on. Even to the point that we got puppies for each of the kids last year and he would feed and water his, walk it when the others walked theirs but he never loved on it like the others did. Never smiled at it when it was happy to see him. He was detached. Honestly, that was when I first started to notice he was a little different. He can turn it on, when he knows others are watching, or even mimic others "normal" behavior, he is just different. His puppy didn't grow and learn like the others because he didn't take time with her. When he went to his mothers and said he wasn't coming back, I was at least relieved that I could find the puppy someone to love her. To this day he has never even asked where she is! Was my husband a great father? No. He thought he was, he tried so hard. He stayed in a loveless marriage for 20 years convinced (by his wife and her family) that if he left he would never see his sons again. That is a ridiclous farce! But my husband, while the kindest soul I have ever know, isn't the most intellectual man. He was on his own at age 15 and all he wanted was a family. He endured SO MUCH to keep his family together and while he THOUGHT he was doing the right thing, it was in the end, the absolute worst thing he could have done. Children who grow up in a battle zone, watching their mother belittle their father over and over, watching their mother lose her temper and hit herself in the head, having one affair after another, that is bound to produce some twisted individuals. My husband tried to keep them busy, Boy Scouts, football, basketball, bowling leagues, track...he was at every practice, every game, helped coach..anything he could to keep them busy and focused on something positive. Yes, he feels gulity. I don't bring it up anymore, he talks when he needs to talk and I listen. Last night for the first time, he said, "I should have taken my boys and left when they were little. They would be different now." I know that is true and I know that is why he puts up with so much, he is largely to blame. No, he wasn't a mean father, but he was an ignorant one, either way, his boys are damaged. I feel bad for my SSs and I am very maternal by nature, so I have tried so hard to take care of them. I wonder if maybe there isn't some jealousy there by the 18 year old because he didn't grow up with that kind of mother. His mother is SO selfish! I have never seen anything like it! Well, my SSs....I have loved on him, he and I had one on one "date nights" and days of shopping and lunches like I do with the others, talked about everything under the sun. I just think it is too late... When his behavior affects my children I have to say no more. Some have asked about my 20 year old SS that I have only met twice. Right in the middle of the split between his parents, he "came out". He was 17. He really , really needed understanding and nurturing. He didn't get it. His mother was vested in her new relationship and his father was licking his own wounds. Both adults were selfish and not there for their son in a very, very crucial time in his life. He is still angry and hurt. While my husband now sees his mistake and wants to be there for his son, he is now going to have to wait until his son is ready to forgive him. Which is why my husband calls him very Sunday and leaves him a message, without fail. He tried to live with his mother and her boyfriend and that didn't work out because the boyfriend was calling him a *ag every day! I wish he would give us a chance but he just isn't ready... I saw on FB recently that he was saying he needed money for groceries. I told my husband (who doesn't realy do the FB thing)and he sent him money for groceries. It's a start... Need to add, the SSs do NOT get along! It's just a big mess! : ( I have to leave it all to my husband. He created this situation, regardless of his intentions, it is time for him to step up and take care of his own. I am just going to take care of mine and see in time what develops.

Learn about 3D printing and see my son-in-law's 3D projects
Q

The Winged Victory of Samothrace is a beautiful 2nd-century BC sculpture of the Greek goddess Nike (Victory). It has been prominently displayed at the Louvre since 1884 and is one of the most famous sculptures in the world. It is estimated to have been created around the year 200 BC and is 8 feet high and made of marble. After visiting the Louvre earlier this fall, Brad fell in love with Winged Victory, and after returning home used a 3D printer to create a miniature version that he and my daughter, Jaime, can display in their home. I'm adding a few pictures of the process. Brad's winged victory was created in multiple sections of various bright colored plastic material (whatever he happened to have on hand - color doesn't matter since the finsihed product will be painted and finished to look like the original marble statue). In one photo, he has incuded a wine bottle for size comparison, so you can see his model is quite small.

I just voted again on all 3 browsers - it is now up to 228!

Yesterday, it wouldn't let me vote on IE--it said I had already voted, but today, it let me vote there in addition to Firefox and Chrome.

Kat, sometimes when it is a one-a-day voting thing, it knows the time of day that you voted and won't let you vote again for 24 hours. So if you vote at 5PM one day, it won't let you vote at 4PM the following day.
