  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

GIT'ERDUN! Post the one thing you HAVE to get done for your family today here.

LOL! Right now paperwork to file covers the floor of one enitire room. I hired the kids to sort the papers into stacks (make them match) for $2 each (to earn money for the upcoming trip). Now I have to file it all.

They did a pretty good job. It took them about 2 hours, while I was making supper, mending some clothing, and doing bills.

So, today, laundry, filing, more packing, more sewing and making it to a school presentation of my middle child by 2:30 p.m.

yeah...laundry...i still have a basket to fold, and two hampers are full again.
i haven't been able to do my labels/business cards for my Aunt's support group.
The file is on an old disc, and the new Vista won't open it up. :scratch: So i have to think of something else.
Also, i cannot get a hold of the seamstress who has my coat! :( Her voice mail is full...and her store is closed all the time...there's a note that says "the seamstress won't be taking any new orders for 3 weeks due to an overload of work....but she will be open for pick ups.
well......i've been there 3x and she is closed!! :o
I want my coat!! :swoon:
