  1. Alas, the enemy will lie and say "You should have done XYZ.... why didn't you do ABC" etc etc etc, ad nauseum. Bottom line is: We all have free will. He chose the path to destruction and dismissed the opportunities (that I'm sure where always presented to him in love) to change direction. (( hugs ))
  2. If you're buying slightly/gently used, I cannot recommend CarMax enough. No mystery fees, no haggling, no hard sell. That was the easiest vehicle purchase we've ever done.
  3. Save-A-Blade - Hubby bought it at WalGreen's from their ASOTV section. It works great.
  4. Marriage Retreat weekend in August Tickets to Journey and Foreigner in concert in September Equine Extravaganza in Richmond VA in October
  5. Mainstream Automotive - Corner of Bobo & Mt Tabor Church Road. Great service, quick work, stands behind all of it.
  6. Royal Carribean... hands down. Class act cruise line.
  7. Hubby and I honeymooned here and returned for 5th anniversary: http://www.innisfreeinn.com/
  8. Our company has used Two Men & A Truck several times... good workers, reasonable rate.
  9. Corner of 278 & 61, behind the not-yet-finished Walgreens & relocated Waffle House. Need a Peach Shake and a Chikin Biskit
  10. Till our very own Chik-Fil-A is open!!! http://www.chick-fil-a.com/Locations/Future/dallas-ga
  11. Awwww, sweetie. Not all are like this, truly. My late M-I-L was a gem and I miss her dearly. She faded away into dementia but I thank God that one of the last Lucid Moments she had was with me: She looked at me, knew me and said "I'm glad you married my David. You're good for him." I hugged her, cried and thanked her for raising such a Godly man for me to marry.
  12. Pot meet Kettle. IF future d-i-l did behave this way, then shame on her... HOWEVER, future m-i-l was just as rude to do her scolding via E-mail. Puhleeze... can you say Passive/Aggressive? I knew you could. MIL-dearest should have either let it go OR just spoken/vented privately to the son. Alas, basic manners & unselfish-respect for others is a dying art.
  13. Horse & Rider access to parks (like White Oak) and plans for new parks that include multi-use/shared trails. Yes, people will pay a Per Day fee to haul in and ride. Douglas, Cobb & Carroll Counties all recognize that Equestrians mean income and have broadened their existing & planned parks to include horses. Cracker Barrel Restaurant... dear God, please.
  14. Kudos to the Sheriff's office. Good job!!!
  15. Quote from Greystone's Facebook update: Found out the cause of last nights outage in Dallas. It was a snake! He apparantly had his eyes set on a birds nest. Crews found the burnt remains on the frame. Mystery solved.
  16. On the flip side, my husband and I always make a marked point of going up to couples with Well-Behaved children and thanking them for said well-behaved children... tell 'em "Keep up the good work."
  17. Maybe we should handle 'em this way? from: NotAlwaysRight.com (A father is letting five kids make a complete mess of the restaurant. They're ripping napkins and using it as confetti, breaking chopsticks and screaming their little heads off.) Me: "Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to tell them to stop doing that. They are disturbing the other customers." Father: *beaming* "No." Me: "No, as in, no you won't tell them to stop it?" Father: *still beaming*"Yes." (I have to get back to work at this point and sure enough, the kids keep misbehaving. Several customers com
  18. Yes GG you can still get 'em! http://www.nostalgiccandy.com/ My favorite: Ice Cubes
  19. 6 Cups Fresh Peaches – cut into chunks 3 Cups Sugar – divided 2 Teaspoons Pure Orange Extract 1 Cup (2 Sticks) Butter, melted 1 ½ Cups All-Purpose Flour 4 Tsp. Baking Powder Large Pinch of Salt 1 ½ Cup Milk Vanilla Ice Cream/Whipped Cream (optional) In a large bowl, gently toss peach chunks with half the sugar and the orange extract. Set aside to macerate. Pour melted butter into a four-quart oven-safe casserole dish. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining sugar; stir in milk. Blend well. Pour batter evenly over th
  20. And then there's the young lady who eats chalk. White, pink, purple, yellow... all colors, lengths and thickness of chalk. Buckets of it. She's on the couch talking to her boyfriend and SNAP bites off a piece and chows down. He freaked.
  21. You need to submit that gem to www.notalwaysright.com - She could be the poster child.
  22. I think both the Yaia-Yaia Athenos commercials are a scream! :rofl: Don't not to mess with a Yaia-Yaia
  23. I HIGHLY recommend Brad at MainStream Automotive on the corner of Bobo Rd. & Mt. Tabor Church PM for contact info. Very good work, reasonably priced, done in a timely manner.
  24. This: see below from www.notalwaysright.com (A little girl walks up to me and my coworker. She is crying.) Me: "Oh, honey. What's wrong?" Girl: "I can't find my mom." Me: "Well, I can page over the speaker for her. What's her name?" (She gives me the name. My coworker gets a description of her mother as I page. When it's a lost child, all we say is 'We have something of yours' for safety reasons. This is to make sure the child does go with their actual parent.) Girl: "I think she left." Coworker: "No, she didn't. She's probably looking for you." Girl: "She said
  25. Oh thank God! KFC is "ok" but Mrs Winners rocks. ADORE their chicken, biscuits, fab cole slaw and sweet tea. Nothing like picking up a box and a gallon after church so I don't have to cook
