wow, not sure what to think of this
Comments (22)You've gotten lots of great positive feedback here. I'm sorry your feelings were hurt, mine would have been also. The guy probably was just looking for work, either for himself, or someone he knows. I am a 'hodge-podge' gardener, with my tropical/cottage gardens. I'm sure plenty of landscapers would have something to say about them. They make me happy, they help restore my soul. They are my haven in this crazy world that we live in. May you feel love, joy and peace as you continue to work in your gardens. Hugs ~ FlowerLady Here are some thoughts: Gardening is any way that humans and nature come together with the intent of creating beauty. - Tina James, 1999 A garden is a delight to the eye and a solace for the soul. - Sadi He who plants a garden plants happiness. If you want to be happy for a lifetime, plant a garden. - Chinese Proverbs Gardening is about enjoying the smell of things growing in the soil, getting dirty without feeling guilty, and generally taking the time to soak up a little peace and serenity. - Lindley Karstens When gardeners garden, it is not just plants that grow, but the gardeners themselves. - Ken Druse Seek to understand what draws you to the garden. You may discover greater rewards than the blue ribbons awarded for the biggest pumpkin or the best preserves. You may find the garden becomes a teacher and crop "failures" become lessons learned. However big or small your garden is, if you allow nature to touch your spirit, gardening will bring returns of peace, satisfaction, and well-being for as long as you continue to wander the garden path. - Norman H. Hansen, The Worth of Gardening...See MoreFather needs some advise
Comments (20)It seems to me that you are like two separate families living in the same house. That in her mind, it is "we" meaning her and her son, and "them" meaning you and your kids. Perhaps a counselor could help you and your wife an all of the kids to become a true family, where you are all working together as a family, caring about each other, and all following the same rules. You two need a "good" counselor to help achieve this goal, and for you and your wife to "come together" and parent these kids in a way where you feel you can trust her to be loving and fair with your children, and she can trust you to be loving and fair to Jordan. Perhaps a counselor could help you find ways to unite, such a holding family nights one night a week, where you play a short board game together or play music and sing and laugh together, and spend a few minutes having a family meeting talking about whatever the counselor says would be a healthy way to cover the families upcoming week. Anyway, as I thought about your your struggles, this is the thought that kept coming back to me. To somehow bring you and the children together as one family. I think that is how I would present it to your wife and the marriage counselor. Tell your wife that this is not working for you, or anyone in the house. Tell her that you believe that your marriage, and this family can be so much better, but that you need someone to help you both find your way to bringing this family together as one family, and coaching you both in how to accomplish this goal. Let the counselor help you learn how to handle discipline issues, and learn how to handle these situations in a way that you can both trust each other in this area. You sound like a good father, trying to do the right thing by your children and your wife. I fear that disengaging from Jordan may backfire, as it would seem easier to correct bad behavior now while he is so young, than deal with behavior that is ignored during his youth, and having these issues in a teenager that has never been dealt with....See Moreyes........ finally i am a nurse
Comments (43)Congratulations! I took my RN's back in 1970. We had five three hour multiple choice exams done on paper so I'm a little curious as to how yours are administered. Does the number of questions depend on how you are doing as you go along? Going back for your degree is also a nice career goal and I hope one you will achieve. We were the first year to write the three hour psych exam. What we were not told was that the pass mark was zero as it was a trial of the test questions. It was optional but suggested so we could licenced in other provinces. Those that opted out were not happy! Now the whole structure has changed and the testing combined rather than by subject matter - medicine, surgery, pediatrics, OB, psychiatry. If you failed in one area, you failed to get your license and had two chances to repeat the tests. The tests were only held twice a year....See MoreBlast from the past - 2000 'Get to know each other' thread
