  1. Whenever I find the checkbook or whenever I remember to grab the checkbook on Sunday when my kids are keeping me busy getting ready for church. It always gets paid , all of it, but just sometimes once a month and sometimes b-weekly. But we always keep track of it and make sure it is done.
  2. Oh boy, now I am worried again. LOL! I am sure it will all work out.....somehow.
  3. In my case it really isn't as sad. I consider myself very luck to have a man that is good to me, puts his religion as a priority and honors his respnisibilities and preisthood. The sad part is where my ex is and how my children need to learn to deal with it. My heart hurts for them, but divorce was a very last ditch effort to keep them safe. My husband's ex sought out her own cancelation w/ my husband. I would like to be sealed to the man that treats me like a person. To me the cancellation from my ex and sealing to my husband will be a happy day.
  4. 24 FIrst time, 35 second time. But I have a friend that is 41 and just got married for the first time last week. And another friend that was 30 and felt like she was never going to get married, then was married just a few months later....it could happen fast.
  5. I know there has been emphisis from the first presidency in the last few years on how important nursery is. They even have their own lesson manual. Seems people would be 100% behind you when you send out the letters. I might even put something in the letters about how these kids have a lesson manual and are a "real" class and you have a lesson to do and such. It might sound a little mean when you write it, but there needs to be no room for asuptions. It needs to be clear that they need to be out. Don't point out too many details. Just put that the general authoirities gave you a lesson plan and that you due to the exra mommies in the class that children are unable to focus and leaders are unable to follow the plan as given to you be the first presidency. Mommies in the room distract the child from fully focusing on the leaders and the lesson, and make it hard for the children to learn. Mommoes that would rather spend the time with their children are welcome to take them in the halls or to RS. Might be mean and all, but firm.
  6. Thanks everyone, not as paniced, now!! :)
  7. I forgave him long ago. Last night (tho the kids don't know what is going on) reminded them to pray for their dad. I always pray for him. Temple, no, but not a bad idea. I will put his name there. He called and left voice mails about the liver thing...many of them. He told me not to respond to them, so Ihaven't.
  8. Plenty! But he said to wait until this next June...(the bishop said to wait) But this death thing is new, and I can't get a hold of my bishop until Sunday.
  9. Oh it was started years ago. The only hold up is the lies he put on his letter. My current husband's sealing is cancelled, but no clearence yet due to this. My husband and I are both recommend holders. And we even went the night before we married. We each have tow kids from before and one together. We have been married for almost 4 years.
  10. Would it be benificail to have my sealing cancelled asap, then still wait to be re-sealed?
  11. I have known for a day, and already been worried about him and the kids and such, but this just came to my mind, just now.
  12. So, A long time ago I asked all kinds of questions about my sealing, kds and other things. So, now, there is the possiblity that my ex might pass away, very soon, our sealing has not been broken. Please tell me that this will not prevent me from being sealed to my husband! If he passes before our sealing is canceled and cleared, can it still happen if my ex dies? (My ex has drunk himself almost to death, his liver is failing bad)
  13. My kids bike to church whenever there is no snow.....
  14. Asking for honeymoon money is super tacky! I know many people that are just happy to have friend come to the reception to share the big day, then don't even have a honeymoon. They are just happy to be married and be together. I think is sad that the people these days feel so entitled that they have to guilt trip and beg money so they can go so far away. It is very nice that they want to go on the trip and how nice would it be to save for a few year and really enjoy the satisfaction of knowing the saved and sacrificed a little for it? I am not shocked or auprised they had the guts to ask because that shows how tacky and entitled "kids" are these days. But I am a little, just a little, upset that I keep seeing this more and more. Tacky, tacky, tacky.....
  15. I have big kids, 10 and 12. And a bay 16 months. I have left the big kids with the baby, for a few minutes. They know how to open the door and find me if need be. So no big deal. I would be ticked if someone called me on that. I would never, even for a moment leave the baby. Even in my driveway if I forget something I take him out or have a big kid sit with him.
  16. Random thought: I realize a date can be a form of forplay. However I think it would be too long for the garment to be removed, just me, no reason for that thought that I can back up. Buth ere is my random thought. Why not carry the cute stuff in your purse and put it on at the end of the date, so yo can go right into the bedroom when you get home? I don't know if that helps or even id ok, but it's an idea.....
  17. I would recommend the bishop ASAP. Don't worry about the mission date. Your concern right now is to make yourself, with help of the bishop and the spirit and mostly Christ, feel better, and stonger to get the bad feelings to go away. Porn is one of those things that really stick with you and Satan knows that. You can't unsee it. Yes, it was a mistake, and that is better than searching for it. However, you were looking for more than you should have. (You already know that.) Just so you know, it's not a sin to stumble upon it. The bishop with help with that part of looking for girls in skimpy clothes. I can't make that call. Perhaps since you were looking for the girls it makes it a bit more serious, I don't know. just go an talk, either way, weather it pushes back the date doesn't really matter right now, you wouldn't want to go feeling guilty. Who knows it might not push the date back. Now and prepare to serve and honest mission. :)
  18. seems we are always assigned to talk about conference talks. Like given a talk to talk about....weird since the GA that gave the talk always seems to get it just right so it's hard to not want to just read it. LOL!
  19. I am in the same boat. I have a child with my new husband and we have a baby. I am still sealed to my ex. I was concerned for some time about it. I know that child is OURS. WWhen I get sealed to my new husband, that child will be really be dsealed to us. No need to take him to the temple. He was born with the blessings of being sealed. It is hard to understand, but it IS ok.
  20. I guess, just as normal, I need to pray for understanding and teach my kids. They know it anyways, but like usual, teach them continuously about morality. :)
  21. I understand there isn't much we can do about it. And I am not arguing, because I agree with most of the points made. I just really don't see a difference between letting girls and boys change clothes and sleep in the same tent, as long as they obey the "rules." I am not trying to argue, I am really looking for how it is much different. It is like saying as long as they stay moral, boys and girls can now sleep in the same tent. I have tons of gay friends, and I am not against them, so please don't take my comments that way. I also have likes a female and lots of male friends, but I wouldn't have them all sleep in a tent together.
  22. My concern as a parent is not so much that anything is going to happen with my boys, since those boys need to ALL live the standards. My concern is that the boys might be looking at my boys when they are changing or something. It is kind of like having both girls and boys in the same tent. Perhaps nothing is going to happen, but the looking doesn't need to happen, either. I think it makes for a very inappropriate situation. I do also realize that it is not going to be a super common thing, however common enough for my concern. I have 4 boys. I am not taking them out of scouts, however depending on how things play out, it could come to that. Out scout leader already said he will ask to be released if something comes out and he has a gay scout to look after. He isn't trying to be prejudiced just not sure how to handle it. He doesn't want boys checking out other boys.
