  1. Well, he doesn't post here so I don't see why not! TPM Sister #102
  2. We'll see if I can get this to work. I'm not sure about the size of the file. TPM Sister #102
  3. Well, I was out doing some Christmas shopping and he called to ask me if I wanted to go get cocoa. I said sure, and he suggested that I just go over to his place since I was close by. I did, and had barely gotten there when he took me over to the sideboard in his dining room and pulled out a box, which he had made himself. He had been trying to decide when to give the ring to me but wanted me to have it before a girls' night out on Friday, so he gave it to me last night and asked me then! TPM Sister #102
  4. Thanks everyone! Actually, my mother did the "I'll get back to you" thing when my dad proposed. He asked, she took the ring, PUT IT IN HER GLOVE COMPARTMENT, and drove around with it until she decided to say yes. I think my dad must've been a very patient man! For the record, I did not do that to Troy! TPM Sister #102
  5. LOL! I was going to say that my form of changing a tire is to call AAA, but I wouldn't mind learning. I was shown how to do it once, long ago, but never having had to ACTUALLY change a tire means that I wouldn't feel confident that I had done it correctly. TPM Sister #102

    Away For Xmas

    I hope you have a GREAT year-long adventure! I can't even imagine living out of a backpack for a year, but what a great time you should have.
  7. Happy day! I hope it's terrific. TPM Sister #102
  8. Seriously, we depend on you for a little raucous entertainment now and then. I mean, how about a little ownership of the problem??! TPM Sister #102
  9. Well, so did I. Just consider it a compliment that we're emulating you. TPM Sister #102
  10. I can see why she'd feel excluded. You're buying a small house and want to add extra space, but in that extra space is a "good sized room," which you want to save for your exclusive personal use. I don't think it's wrong to want space to yourself, but I think it's important that your wife feel like the new house has something special to offer her, too. The new house is small but you're giving yourself a lot of room that she's not welcome to use. Can you create a space for her, too? If you're creating your own addition, it sounds like you have complete control over the way you use the extra square footage. I would think she'd have less resistance to a place for you if there was also a special place for her. TPM Sister #102
  11. Our low was -18F last night, but Weather Underground says we're up to 3.7F. Hope your heaters are all in good working order!

  15. So, do you still feel like a Karl? What name would you pick today? TPM Sister #102
  16. Snoodilicious. TPM Sister #102
  17. Hey . . . what you do in the privacy of your own home. . . . TPM Sister #102
  18. I didn't know that. A "snood" is what we used to put over our hair buns back when I was little and took ballet. Really, it turns out that we were just turtle brains. TPM Sister #102
  19. That's a good score. I can't consistently get into the 30s at all. TPM Sister #102
  20. 35.312. Wish I knew what I did to make him fly that far again! TPM Sister #102

    Studded Snow Tires

    [replyI've found great success with Bridgestone Blizzaks.[\reply] Seriously, look into them. They've been terrific. They are not cheap but they are most definitely worth it in the snow. TPM Sister #102
