"Dennis Here" youreply wrote in message ...
Vickychick wrote in message So right. You must have patience. I am now teaching J and C to iron. I taught both older boys to iron. When married I used to do most of it anyway. After seperation I was the one who always sent them to school in an ironed uniform. Still the same with Freddie's mother, uniform comes back un-ironed on a Sunday night! Since I started work I have bought another. Just before I came on line tonight I was supervising Freddie making cakes! Real man's work. Trouble is we fight over who gets to scrape the bowl! Dennis BOTH a male and female child are doing the same chores and I do not label them as "male or female" roles. That does not fly in my home. V You go Dennis! Freddie will make a wonderful hubby & father one day I am sure, due to his guidance from you! V |

On Sun, 07 Dec 2003 23:46:59 GMT, "CME" Hey! I know how to do that!!! lol Being stranded on the highway outside of Calgary with 2 adult women and 4 kids (one being an infant) sure makes a girl learn quick.. but I will admit to changing into a tight shirt to get us help because EVERYONE passed us, and we did need some help (the spare was flat... hey, it wasn't MY van. lol) And you want to know who ended up stopping after 2 hours??? A woman, then 2 more guys stopped 15 mins after her... I thought Albertans were supposed to be friendly? She even followed us to the Wal-Mart (on her spare) so we could buy a new tire. Ahhh summer holidays. Christine What a nice woman! We have a highway patrol.. the phone number is on the back of our window registration sticker. Getting stuck on the side of a highway is so dangerous. 'Kate Uhh not here in Canada... honestly, that never even crossed my mind. :| Christine I think that's a little naive, read the news. Even after only 10 years, I have seen a dramatic increase in the number of violent incidents in Eastern Ontario. Alberta is no exception. Lisa Uh no actually I'm not naive, I study crime in University... watching the news is not an accurate portrayal of crime. Christine I'll give you that watching the news is not an accurate protrayal of crime. That's just the stuff we hear about. Then there's all the **** that we never hear about. Text books aside, Canada is not the safe bubble that we would like to think. In comparison to other countries maybe, but, I think I prefer to err on the side of caution. |

"Dennis Here" youreply wrote in message ... Lisa aka Surfer wrote in message ... Why Kate, how interesting, that's the exact man that PROPOSED TO ME on Saturday. Can you believe it? We're getting married )))))) So I assume that you said yes then. Was it a romantic bended knee job? Just curious. Congratulations! Dennis I definately said yes, well, once I got passed the o my gods We had lunch at a very intimate spot, not quite what he was looking for but lovely none the less. He did not get on bended knee, although he said that he was going to if it had felt right. He was so sweet, he was shaking when he held my hand across the table and proposed. The ring was in a beautiful porcelain music box, still can't place the tune that it plays though. We are both very excited and thrilled, to say the least. Thanks for the congrats!! Lisa |

"CME" wrote in message news:Gk5Bb.26393$d35.5441@edtnps84... "Lisa aka Surfer" wrote in message ... What would you personally consider makes a 'good man' all political considerations aside? A good man is a loving, kind, and considerate father. He stands by his children and spouse regardless of the ups and downs. He communicates openly with his wife about the children and works with her as a united team for the benefit of the family unit. He makes himself available and takes an interest in the children's interests. He wants to spend time with them because he genuinely likes them. As a husband, someone who asks, "How are you doing?" and means it. Someone who is honest, open, trustworthy and will not betray my confidences. Someone who sees me as a woman and not just a mother, housekeeper, or any of the other roles that I take on in life... and one who cherishes the marriage by doing things that are special to us as a couple. He would be intelligent and make me laugh but know when it's time to be serious too. He would not be prone to angry outbursts but be passionate about life and have a wide range of interests. He must be able to express himself without being demanding or putting others down. Why Kate, how interesting, that's the exact man that PROPOSED TO ME on Saturday. Can you believe it? We're getting married )))))) Lisa Congrats... at least one of us has got their happy ending. (Ya ya you too Bri. lol) Christine Thanks Christine. I've always believed that we will all have a happy ending in our own time Lisa |

'Kate wrote in message ... On Wed, 10 Dec 2003 01:08:10 GMT, "CME" I never said Canada was this glorious little haven, I'm just saying the chances of our getting jacked on the side of the highway outside of Calgary in the middle of broad daylight on one of the most busiest highways, is slim to none. I prefer to live my life, not live it in fear of being victimized. Christine Well... actually, I meant that when a car is stuck on the side of the highway where other cars are driving very fast and very close to the disabled car, the possibility of surviving a crash is decreased. The number of cars on a busy highway is greater than the number of cars on a side street. Sometimes a driver just drifts over, tired or distracted, or thinks that there is a new lane and doesn't realize until it's too late, that the car on the side is disabled and stopped. I have a friend who lost his fiancee, one of her twin daughters, and the fiancee's best friend that way. The driver of the car that hit her car as she was exiting the vehicle took his eyes off the road to retrieve a CD player. I hadn't even thought of being jacked. 'Kate Well we were in a driveway of sorts... not to mention we have quite a large whatchamacallit on the side of the highway... but yes, I see your point. Christine |
