I saved the changes and it took. Sometimes my new one shows up and then the old one appears again.

Eventually Vanka, disappeared, and the children were very uspset. They insisted that they go to every house on the street, and ask if people had seen "Wanka". By this time they had changed the name to the South African pronounciation.

So in absolute embarressment, I had to go with them, and let them ask eveyone if they had seen Wanka, the blue rabbit because he had left home.

Again, the reactions were hysterical. I was feeling like a complete idiot, which I am sure they thought I was. But sadly, we never saw Vanka/Wanka again. We were all very sad.

I think he ended up on someones plate, at the dinner table. I never told the girls that.

When my girls were about 2,3,4, a Norwegian friend, visitng South Africa, bought them a rabbit , that was dyed blue. The girls asked what his name was, and he said "Vanka". The Norwegians could not pronounce "W".

Well Vanka became a good family pet, and used to go and sleep, curled up in one of the cooking pots. Or he would come and lie over my shoulder and have a snooze. He was very tame.

Sometimes friends would come to visit, and I used to get such a kick out of this. They would have a drink or two, and then Vanka would go hopping by, and I and the girls would just pretend we had not seen him. But my friends would get this very strange look on their faces, look at their drink, or snacks, look up again, say nothing. Eventually someone would say, "i keep seeing a blue rabbit hop past, am I going mad, or what?" Then we would tell them, and introduce them to Vanka.

Why is it society looks at that like it is something very wrong but thinks nothing of an old man with a very young woman?

summer? All summer long I see elderly women in warm winter coats, with hand knitted hats for winter, and I was wondering why? Please don't tell me its the air conditioning, these women are out walking in the 82 degree heat!

It is a wonderful book by James Herriot who started his career as a veterinarian in Yorshire. I loved reading about him and the animals he treated. I first read it in the early 70's and have read it over again many times. He had much insight about people as well as animals.

What brought this up: I noticed another "do my homework for me" question by a student who had obviously not read All Creatures Great and Small. Will she ever realize what she is missing by not reading the good books? Were we really that much different in our youth?

I'm rambling away from the subject. Dear Senior Citizen section friends...... Any comments about the book? I'd love to hear from you.

I used the return vent in the central air conditioning unit. The trunk of my car when they were little. The top of the cabinets in the kitchen with the dropped ceiling. Under my sons bed, he'd never look there! How creative were you?

Oddly enough, you don't have to get very old before realizing that there are many people who resent you, as an old person, taking up space on the planet. If you have a part-time job, it is begrudged you because it should be given to someone with a family to support. I've heard the impatience of people in stores because an old person is in the way and is suspected of being senile: Old and senile, same thing. Some see that your social security is the same as welfare - paid out of their tax dollars. I've heard it on talk shows. They don't consider that it may have taken you 50+ years as a wage earner,contributing to your account in order to collect at age 65.. AARP magazine focuses on seniors who drive a succession of new cars, have second homes somewhere in the world, travel a lot and live better than most of us ever hoped to live at any time in our lives. That's the way it is. The working poor are the forgotten people in every generation. We earned every day of it.

I stepped off a neighbors porch, apparebntly i forgot how tall I was and stepped into the air. Really felt like an idiot and didn't want to complain about the skinned knees/palms and knees or the blood. But man, it really hurt!

I Learned In Kindergarten....did you ever read the book by Robert Fulgham? Here are the basics - do you agree?

Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life.

If you love your child or parent you can't divorce them. Usually you can't help but love them, but what do you do when they use you, don't respect you, and cause you to cry frequently? I know a couple of people going through this right now. It's a hard situation to deal with.

I saw one at the local shopping centre and it was HUGE. How on earth are you supposed to hold it up. Good grief if it ever fell on me I would be crushed, and I aint exactly petite. I'd never be able to pick it up again.

My landlord, who I see on a daily basis for I rent a room in his house, always talks about his sex life & lack of. He is 58 & newly divorced & has flat out told me how great it would be if....
I have NO desire to talk, let alone think, about that subject due to a couple of "incidents" that happened in my distant past. Just about every sentence is filled with either a crude joke about sex or sexual in nature. I have tried various ways to get him to understand this is not something I wish to discuss & I didn't rent this room because of you but it's location & how nice it is. All to no avail. I have even gotten mad & told him just to go pay for it & he said he didn't do that sort of thing! I am at wits end here for I don't have the means to move at this point, but by the first of the year I will.
Need advice here & please no smart remarks, this is a painful subject for me.

Before Real Estate, I worked in cosmetics, after dancing. OMG. And I had to practice the facial massage for an exam.

I eventually convinced my late, to lie on the bed and let me do a facial massage on him. To remember the sequence etc.

He did, and I seemed to get it all right. Then I climbed into bed, and he went into the bathroom.

When he came out, he had all these red spots on his face. And I thought, OMG, should I tell him. He was acting in a very unassuming way. Eventually I told him, and he rushed back into the bathroom, yelling, "look what you have done to me!" I rushed into the bathroom, had a close look.

I had some red toothpaste (forgotten the name), which made your gums red and your teeth look whiter. He had taken bits of it and dotted it on his face to look like blotches, as if he had, had a reaction to the creams. He had this great sense of humour.

and Biblical verses that can be interpreted a thousand ways? Isn't worshipping God an experience that you can feel, while church dogma is an experience in inanity, pride, hate and childishness as the dogma separates you from a true experience of the power that we attribute to God?
