One thing I ain't got is smoulder.

I have to disagree with this, I've seen several pictures where you are sexy and smouldery.

I think you are right to make her stay with this team. She needs to finish this. I am guessing if she does stick through a season or two with this team , she will be playing that much better. Honestly, going through this will make her see the difference between DH's dream and her reality. The last thing she needs is regrets about a possibility that may have never been there. As for Dh, he nees to look at the child that is there , not at the child he wants. It isn't evil on his part, plots of parents do it. and if K-bug had never gotten on this team , he may have never had to face it.but now he does, so it is hard on him too. But itis double hard on her, finding her own limits and dissapointing a parent at the same time . poor bug. poor mom

I get that I'm pretty (or can be), but it's a total Sandra Dee, girl-next-door, girl scout cookie type of pretty. I will never be all darkly sexy and dangerous. One thing I ain't got is smoulder. Got lots of sunshine-y wholesomeness, but not one drop of smoulder.

Teppy have you seen you?

I'm not bagging on me; just -- I know my strong points, and some people like the St. Pauli Girl look, is all. Theda Bara I ain't.

OTOH, the IRS sent a letter saying we owed another $7,000 in taxes. After going though the process, we ended up with an extra refund of $174 instead.

yay for more money.

I think there are moments, Tep. Which is all I ever have either, except for the fact if I ever have a nasty thought I might as well take out an ad, for it's all over my face.

I don't understand how come your DH is so invested in the softball.

Gud, I don't know either. At first it seemed to be because she has a rare blood disease and went through some major medical stuff when she was 2.5 and seeing her run and play means she came through that with flying colors. But it has morphed into an obsession with him.

The odd thing is that our son had spinal surgery when he was 4 months old and we didn't even know if he would walk. He plays ball too - but DH has not obsessed over his play (yet).

Dallas, you dirty girl.

Gud, way to go. What a relief. And vindication.

We dyed my sister's hair black for halloween last year or the year before, and it looked surprisingly good, so I suspect I could work it.

Yikes, you've been through a lot of medical stress with your kids SuziQ.

I'm not bagging on me; just -- I know my strong points, and some people like the St. Pauli Girl look, is all. Theda Bara I ain't.

And, I am not trying to feed your ego, but you can do smoldering quite well.

Smouldering Teppy.

IJS.
