  1. I have 3 dachshunds and two cats. Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  2. I'm a Static Line graduate, and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have become a skydiver any other way. AFF would have stressed me out, mentally and financially. I never paid for coach jumps and got a used rig from my instructor as well. It's not the newest and prettiest, but it works great. Some people will swear AFF is the way to go, others say the same thing about Satic Line. I think it depends on the person.

  8. ***I just licked your avatar! __________________________________________________ Oh great....here comes another rash of sex threads!! Duck and cover people. Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  9. Oh...no I didn't miss it. I was just traumatized at the idea of my 8-year old telling his Bible Class teacher that Mom cleans house in a french maid outfit, and that daddy's so happy when she does that...and then years later when he figures it out, what that would do to him Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  10. ***They are willing to live a facade until the kids go off to college. ------------------------------------------------------------ ...or they could do like my parents did and NOT live a facade, so that when my sister and I left we just looked at eachother, shook our heads and asked..."Why in the Sam Hill (or another word would do) didn't she leave his sorry butt a long time ago?!! Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  11. ***When my oldest son was young, and he was misbehaving, we would tell him that we're going to put him back into the box he came in, and send him back. Once, a FedEx truck drove by about that time. Words cannot describe the look on his face. __________________________________________________ HMMM...I'll bet that would work on my 4-year old. Ooops, did I say that? Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  12. ***UNDER the handcuffs and leather thong! __________________________________________________ CRAP!! My husband is out of town until Friday Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  13. It's IN the manual...just keep reading! __________________________________________________ I can't seem to find that manual. It must be in the same place as the one on how to raise kids Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  14. Honestly, I don't think any of us really know what we would do unless and until we were actually faced with that situation. We just know it would suck! Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  15. My situation wasn't a matter of one of my parents simply not loving the other one. My dad was simply a drunk jerk-wad who didn't love HIMSELF. My sister and I would have been better off not growing up with that. It depends on what we're talking about by not loving someone anymore. Sometimes people define love by how they "feel" towards the other person. Marriage and love are not all about feelings. Any one who's married long enough is not always going to feel loving towards the other one. That's just life. Marriage takes maintainence (sp) and a lot of it. It's sad that some folks take better care of their cars than they do their relationships To the original poster: I'm not sure if this is what you were talking about, or if it goes a lot deeper. Relationships are very complex and I'm not trying to say this is simple or easy. Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  16. I started to get depressed when I read and responded to this thread, but you changed that very quickly. Thanks for the laughs! Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  17. You are correct. Children would much rather come from a broken home than live in one. I LIVED in a broken home for 17 years, I know Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  18. You are hilarious 'Twardo. I actually meant the whole SCR thing....and I think Texas is known for it's neighborly kind of atmosphere! NO PRICKS ALOUD IN THIS STATE Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  19. ***IT'S NEVER OVER!!!!!!!!!!!! __________________________________________________ Okay, now I'm really gonna have nightmares! Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  20. Hey girl! Looks like third time was a charm for both of us It was great wasn't it! Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  21. ***insted of being a prick why didnt you just answer the question? **************************************** Exactly! My understanding is that it's most popular in Texas. Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  22. ***No I didnt! It was soooo painful for me. Believe me it hurt me more than it hurt you. I feel so bad about the entire thing __________________________________________________ Well at least you didn't put any down the back of my shirt like a certain someone else did Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  23. Okay....stop all this sex talk. My husband is out of town until Friday. Have a little sympathy Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
  24. During Skyfest 2005, I was in San Marcos taking ground school. I remember thinking to myself "I will be there next year." Boy, time sure flies! Besides Skyfest being a blast, it was impressive to see the bond between Skydivers, and the way everyone helped eachother out. As we were dirtdiving for my SCR, I was overwhelmed at how so many pulled together to make it happen. One of these days I'll be good enough to help someone else get their SCR, and it will be just as much fun if not more. Skyfest was Truly an outstanding experience. Thanks to everyone!!

  25. ***It's amazing that with Texas heat...a "little" beer being poured on you can make it REAL cold all of the sudden __________________________________________________ That's funny, I was actually thinking about that during the ceremony. Jumpjunkie2004 and I were clinging to eachother, shivering something awful. And I was thinking about how just a few hours before, I was sitting on a plane with all my gear on, wishing someone would pour something cold on me. Lesson learned: Be careful what you wish for Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28
