We should do a lot of things, but I'm pretty sure that isn't one of them.
Whoa...
How'd you know exactly
what I've been telling my boyfriend?

Any talk Brady gives has got to be better than the one I got.
"Never take an open drink from anyone. Ask for a can of soda, and insist on opening it yourself. If you feel you must take a drink someone has opened for you, pretend to drink it, then discretely go dump it in the toilet.
Never be alone with football players. Ever. Not even in school."
That was it. And that was twenty plus years ago.
And what is wrong with toes? I wish I had pretty feet. They look better in strappy little open toed shoes.

Good morning house of loincloths and sex.
Isn't this where I left off last night?
Dunno...
Where you online?

One, as far as I know.
But hubby was an airman when I met him, so apparently that counteracts the fact that he'd played football, because my mother was happy with me dating him.

Good morning House of "The Talk." Oy.
Since I have a teen son, the talking about sex and stuff goes to Dad.
Since I have a teen son, the talking about sex and stuff goes to Dad.
My teenage boys usually respond to facts of life discussion with, "Ewww, mom, I don't want to hear that."
Their little sister, however, is fascinated with all things biology. She wants clinical facts.
Sometimes I think she just pushes me for details so she can run into the other room and watch her brothers scream and run away as she passes on her new information.

One of my favorite stories along this line . . .
I have some friends who adopted a boy years ago. When the boy was a certain age they discovered that he and some of the neighbor girls had been playing "I'll show you mine if you show me yours."
Since the boy was still fairly young the parents just took it as natural curiosity. So, the dad sits him down to explain a few things (while the mom left!) and also show the boy a book about women and sex and what have you. He assumed that would fulfill the boy's curiosity.
The boy listened with polite interest while dad talked and showed him some of the illustrations in the book. Afterward it went something like this:
Dad: "Did that explain things?"
Boy: "Yeah, I guess."
Dad: "Any questions?"
Boy: "Do you have any other books, ones that have little girls without their clothes on?"
Dad: "No, if daddy had any of those books they would put him in prison."

good pm, all. Well, I called the 2nd roofer since he didn't show up either Mon. or Tues. and told him to forget it since we needed the job done asap and he instead of saying, "Wait, I'll be right over." He says, ok and hangs up! I don't know whether to laugh or cry. It's really ridiculous. I guess the economy has picked up so much that they don't need the jobs...
Y'all have a good day. Hope the fires 'n sex talks work out.

How are you finding these roofers, Susie?
There are a lot of shady characters in the roofing business. If you can, find something locally (with a physical presence not just a phone number) and who has been in business for at least ten years.

Also, Susie? Along with AC's sage advice, I'd also suggest getting a referral from a neighbor or friend, if that's possible. That's another way of finding someone with a good reputation and track record.
Sorry you are just finding the bummers. They really ought to tell you up front if the job is too small or they don't want it for whatever reason.
You can also tell them that if they don't behave, you have a gang waiting and ready to come beat them up.

AC and other cat owners/lovers might really enjoy this...especially if you love Doctor Who.
