    That's a real shame Shiela.....did they say why? or just one of those things.  Unfortunately we can't live their lives for them so they have to make their own decisions.

    WEll she has a 4 year naval committment--------4-5 hours between them --her next assignment is on a ship for 8-12 months. He was willing to follow her whereever , even though as a lawyer that would be hard. She didn't want that.. All of this was discussed thoroughly before engagement inFEB.........he only got an inkling something was up about two weeks ago

    I thought her maturity level was such that she had thought it through as well as he had.

    Yes but not a lot.  Why?

    I do remember you saying that you were wondering what they were going to do because of her commitment to the navy.

    Alyson mentioned setting a fire earlier---------is that the heating method of choice? how are the forrests holding up?

    We only have a very small house and the fire is a combustion fire so uses very little wood.  The old Almond tree that blew down last year is fueling our fire this year.  We usually use about a ton of wood a year.....not a lot when you think about it and a heck of a lot cheaper than electric, gas or oil!

    Something nice I was reading stuff on the rest of hisFB page--------favorite qoute" With hard work comes Privelege". Since about 10 y/o we used the phrase "With  Effort comes Privelege". I was proud to see even though modified that it is part of him now, that was a mom warmer.

    Hi Chrissy & Sheila, I didn't get those nuts off to you Chrissy today, had to baby-sit grandson unexpectedly at his home all day. While a positive experience, he is a little live-wire and at 10 months taking his first steps already which leaves me exhausted by the end of the day.  They say that early walkers are highly intelligent and I don't doubt it with this one. He used to look at everything with a questioning look as if he was trying to understand what it was all about and now he has what I call a 'knowing' look.  Things are starting to make sense and he is figuring out which ways he can make mischief from them.  His mother at 25 is exhausted most of the time as GS doesn't sleep through the night yet and my son, like most males, doesn't hear a thing all night long. I think that's called selective hearing.

    I will try to get to the PO tomorrow if I can still walk after crawling on the floor, chasing, cleaning food off the walls, floor etc., all day.

    Sheila.

    Isn't it nice when something we pushed at them as kids comes back and reafirms our faith in human nature and our job as parents.

    The combustion stove wouldn't happen to be called a Franklin --would it?

    Like I say something else is up, but we won't know for awhile, I'm sure of it.

    No, it's a Woodsman, it's little but works well.  It heats the place so that I can wal around with a long sleeved cotton shirt......not too hot, not too cold!

    Sometimes we get so used to our childrens partners and when the relationship doesn't work out we actually miss them......there is always in the back of our minds questions of why it didn't work.  It's a shame but I guess they know what they are doing.

    Chrissy---is that stove a Franklin if not see if you can find it's origins---------Benjamin Franklin made an effecient wood burner that was revolutionary for it's time, besides all his other inventions and the revolutioary war activities.
