I have been crocheting for about a year now, & I still can not figure out why all my pieces turn out shorter than they are supposed to be. My mother-in-law said I was crocheting too tightly, so I loosened things up & she says that I am doing good now, but I am still having trouble with the height of my pieces. She can not figure out what I am doing wrong either. For instance, I am now working on a bed spread for my daughter's single bed. The pattern is supposed to fit a queen size bed with enough left over to cover the pillows. The finished pattern has 6 diamonds (in a verticle row), mine will need like, 8 or 10 to be long enough to cover her bed from end to end & go over the pillows like it is supposed to. I am using the correct hook & yarn for the pattern. Any ideas? Thanks.

i have a question for you... now be honest k...?

my ex boyfriends birthday was on june 3rd. he's with a girl now and shes either pregnant or has had the baby already should i send him a birthday card? well its in the envelope with a stamp on it already, all it says is "i dont mean any harm by this but i just wanted to wish you a happy birthday i hope your doing well and i hope the wifey and the babe are good too. happy birthday -me, i hope this doesnt get you in trouble because it shouldnt."

now i was with this kid for almost 4 years and they have been together well.... maybe 1 year.. she got pregnant when they had been together for 5 months.. if your b/f got a birthday card like this from his ex girl would you feel threatened?
i really dont want to cause trouble but it was such a big part of my life and i miss him, not as a b/f because the one i have now he couldnt even compare, but as a friend. i really just want to know he's still alive and doing good. so do i send it or not?

With China and India putting most CO2 into the air, should America invade these countries to save us from GW?

They have too many people and pollute too much. Lets get out of Iraq and into China. It's the only way to save us from Global Warming. We must take action soon or we will all die. The world will be one big desert. We will die from Global Warming in 10 years unless we level China and India. Let me know what ya'll think of my new idea to save the world.
