My husband was an "oops" baby, and is 16 years younger than the next older sibling. Since his parents were not expecting any more children, they had no baby things for him when my mother-in-law was pregnant. My father-in-law made an absolutely beautiful rocking chair for my mother-in-law to nurse and rock him in. Since it was a chair made for him, she gave it to me on our wedding day, as she wanted his (my husband's) children to be nursed and rocked in the same chair.

We ended up not having children. It was harder for his parents to accept it than it was for mine. His mother has only mentioned the chair once to me, when she remarked quite bitterly, "If I'd known you weren't going to use it, I wouldn't have wasted it on you."

I don't know if I should simply give the chair back to my husband's mother with a warm thank you, or if I should keep it and pass it along to another person in his family later on.

What are your thoughts? I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

Thanks.

This is purely for interest's sake... I'm NOT gay and neither do I think I am. Assuming the question is true, what would you say?

Part 2) How should I word my letter? Am I supposed to be asking ...or demanding for it to be taken off my credit?

Part 1) If I were to write a letter.... who would it be to?
I'm paying off a debt....and I was told to write a letter before sending money, to see if it can be taken off my credit. It is a utility bill. Do I send the letter to the collection agency or the utility co.?

The Bible describes the suspension of the Earth in space.
..........................
Job 26:7
He stretches out the north over empty space;
He hangs the earth on nothing.

..................................
The Bible describes the circulation of the atmosphere.

Ecclesiastes 1:6
The wind goes toward the south,
And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually,
And comes again on its circuit.

.................................
The Bible includes some principles of fluid dynamics.


Job 28:25
To establish a weight for the wind,
And apportion the waters by measure.

......................................
The bible includes reasonably complete descriptions of the hydrologic cycle.

Psalm 135:7
He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
He makes lightning for the rain;
He brings the wind out of His treasuries.

This is not intelligent? Hmm.. I'm still wondering about you skeptics. You scare me.

he's my boyfriend,he's romantic, he's good looking, maybe too much 4 his own good,he's short tempered, and reads too much to most things i say thereby always making me explain myself to correct his wrong decodin of my words, he says he likes me lots. he could be a bit too abusive when angry (which is too often) he's generous. but he doen't listen. a lady likes to be heard sometimes. he doen't REALLY listen. Sometimes i feel like talking deep but i mostly see a far away look which puts me off. what should i do? i need advise pls.

I always see the people who want everything double bagged and I always wonder how many of them have actually had something go right through the bag. Because sometimes I think people take it to far and if the stuff is bagged right then it should be fine. I bag my own stuff and I dont double bag and I have never had it happen to me. My grandmother insists on having hers doubled or with a paper bag and I asked her this question and she said no she has never had it happen. But she doesnt want to risk it. Have any of you ever had it happen to YOU?

I know about the Statement of Deduction for our sub-contractors but has anything replaced the CIS24 certificate we used to give out after receiving a payment for work? I have been through the paperwork they sent me about the scheme but can find nothing relevant. I am new to this!
