Never miss a thing. Make your homepage.

TO SOM:

I do pray for all of us and it's really none of my business, but it you don't tell your kids why you don't see them - is it better for them to think you don't love them enough to spend time with them or tell the truth and set the record straight? I know I would rather be sure my parents loved me enough to sacrifice seeing them because you are worried for THEM than to think you don't care.

good. nice to know that one of my usually dumb ideas might actually help someone.

Sick of Mites. I think you should tell your relatives what is going on with you. And I think you can go over there without giving anyone this mite, too. You would feel better, once you did this.

Hi Som

Could you rent a car to drive to your family?

Scrub yourself really well (maybe use some bleach just

this once) and rent a car so you dont bring any in

the car with you. Wear brand new clothes. Do not

spend the nite.

I think you can go there for a few hours if you are

careful.

But i understand your worries.

i missed the holidays last year also with my family

becuase of this.

I have missed 2 weddings and countless other special

events because of these evil little pieces of

sh#%t!!!!!!!

I live with my boyfriend and he does not feel a thing.

I have lived in 3 houses with this when it was really

bad---noone felt a thing ever!!!! And i am talking

about 8 different roomates!!!

Just think about it......

We all feel for you and have been there...
