Des, I'm the same way exactly about smells. I have very strong scent memories and I seem to be very scent-oriented. And I love Home Depot and Lowe's, too - I probably look like an idiot sniffing the way I do in there.

(Hugs) Recon..sorry for your loss.

My grandpa will be moved into hospice care tomorrow. The doctors and many of my family members are not sure if he'll even make it home from the hospital as he is relying solely on the breathing machine as of now. Tomorrow is going to be rough.

Today was the 1st day of school here, the 1st time in the last 18 yrs I have not sent a child off to school. FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST.

Sad and glad all at the same time.

UGH...that reminds me that school is about to start. I have one starting high school and one going into second grade. Crazy mornings ahead!!!

Hey Des..Yankee Candle has a "Sawdust" scented candle..it's called 2x4 I believe..lol..they have a new line of "Man Candles"......I like that sawdust smell too..I used to like how my ex bf smelled when he came home from work when he was a diesel mechanic..it was just kinda sexy ...call me crazy..but he was kinda dirty and the scent was just..mmm

Congrats Tossed! Yes always seems a little bitter sweet when the kids grow up.

You all start school early.. School here starts a few days before labor day

why does figuring out school and job crap have to be so confusing? ugh. just when i start thinking i have things figured out, my mind starts to change again....

I hate it when I sit down on the toilet and my penis is resting on the inside of the bowl!

Kyle- Can't you just move it? I guess I have never even thought about this!

Update: Today has been far better than I thought. Although my grandpa has been moved into hospice care when they took the breathing ventilator out he continued breathing on his own! As long as he can last through the night, he will be coming home tomorrow to serve the rest of his life there. I thank you all for the prayers. They have worked wonders!

whyme-----------that is awesome! keep us posted!

Well me and the boyfriend are over, I realized I love this girl more than him. I have a photo of her up on my profile. She makes me happy and I make her happy. My ex thought he did something wrong and was acting out his emotions. I had to talk to him and let him know that it wasn't him, and let him know that his happiness is what I was concerned about. So I created him a profile on a dating site so he could find a girl that can make him happy. I even said I hope he finds someone to be his girl and told him I was sorry that I couldn't be that girl.

Recon, I hope all works out well for you -- hugs

Thanks Viv. Hopefully she can come see me soon. I'd hold her tightly and give her kisses if she was here right now.
