mrsturner Maybe give her a card with a gift card in it or something. I know that my mother and mother-in-law would be hurt to get absolutely nothing for Mother's Day. At least with a gift card she could get something she wants even if she doesn't "need" anything. I...

Seeing a friend for the first time in a long time.

mrsturner @mrsturner (518) • Canada 6 May 07

One of my friends is coming to visit next Tuesday. I've only seen her twice in the last 2.5 years. However, when she gets here we will sit and talk and catch up. It will be like we were never apart. Do you have friends that you...

What do you think is the worst disease in the world today?? Why??

djdeep81 @djdeep81 (1061) 6 May 07

I think it is probably cancer. It's getting to the point where you can almost guarantee that either you, or someone else you are close to will suffer from some kind of cancer at some point. At least with AIDS we know how to avoid...

mrsturner I agree that cancer is terrible and affects everyones lives, but there are others as well. There are people with Arthritis so bad that they can't move, sit or sleep without constant pain. They have to watch life go by without participating. There are people...

The Coolest CSI Guy

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 5 May 07

Though Brass isn't actually a CSI, I think he's the coolest one on the entire show. He always has a funny comment for nearly everything, very nicely dressed, and even though he started off with a rough relationship with some of...

mrsturner I think that the coolest CSI guy is Warrick Brown from Las Vegas. There is something about him - since he has recovered from the gambling thing, he seems to go with the flow and nothing seems to bother him.

mrsturner I have so many stretch marks that I could be used as a road map. The thing is though - it doesn't really bother me that badly. I wish they weren't there, but since they are, I don't worry about it. My children are so precious to me that I would count myself...

mrsturner I know the whole dynamics thing with parents. I got married at 27 and my parents thought that I had never slept with my fiance. I don't really see a problem with letting them have their illusions. Sometimes it is easier on the parent-child (for somereason we...

copy cat..and the embarrasment that follows.

wmaharper @wmaharper (2315) • United States 3 May 07

My son copies everything my husband does, which is cute, but can be embarrasing at times. My hubby is constantly smacking me on the butt when he walks by, just playing around, and my son has picked up that bad habit. And now, my...

mrsturner I am so glad to here you tell that story. I thought I was the only mother with a toddler that would smack my butt on his way by and say "see-ya honey". Mostly I have to turn around and laugh silently because, like you, I don't want to encourage the behaviour....

Is It My Place??

LoLoSLoT @LoLoSLoT (22) • United States 29 Apr 07

Okay my nephew will be three in July. His mother, my sister, who is single at that has ways of raising him that I don't agree with. It's nothing that could harm him or endanger him or anything like that it's just a few small...

mrsturner Mothers are very sensitive about anyone - even a cherished sister - telling them that they are doing something wrong. If she asks for your opinion then you have an opening to bring something up. Don't bring everything up at once. That could be disasterous. The...

mrsturner I actually refuse to light the barbeque even though I now know how to do it. A few years ago my sister and I decided to do some steaks. We turned on the gas, realized we didn't have a match, took a little while to find one and then just lit the match. Well,...

$10 million dollars!

atramesil @atramesil (685) • United States 30 Apr 07

Yep, 10 million. That's how much they'd have to offer me to appear semi-clothed in a skin mag. Toally unclothed, Uh I don't think they have enough money for that one. This old body is a more likely candidate for the road map...

mrsturner I'm pretty sure I would sell for $10 million no problem. The problem is that no one would want to see my body with all the stretch marks from pregnancy. I've never had a problem with nudity - mine or anyone elses.

mrsturner I have to admit that I ama little amused at hoe seriously some people take this. If you dropped a quarter down the sewer grate at the mall it wouldn't bother you, but to lose a quarter here is the end of the world. I agree poppoppop111 there needs to be a...

Where do you get ideas for your books?

Rickrocks8 @Rickrocks8 (1751) • United States 12 Apr 07

mrsturner Lucky you! I am so far behind that there is no end in sight. Not that I'd want there to be an end, but there are so many projects on the go that sometimes it is almost overwhelming. Meanwhile the pictures keep piling up. Oh well, when the baby is finished...

mrsturner Somedays I think that I live for the day that I get to pee or bathe without an audience. Now that my son talks all I hear is "You have to pee? You have a bath?" I don't really mind. Normally I wait for the kids to be in bed before bathing so that I can have...

mrsturner I think that it's a lovely idea. We would have done it at our wedding if the aisle had been wide enough. As it was (we had an old-fashioned ceremony) when the preacher asked who was giving me to my husband my Dad said, "Her mother and I do."

mrsturner I don't think there is anything wrong with bathing with your kids till they reach around school age. Then they won't want to anyway I would assume. Mostly I don't take baths with my kids because I like the water way too hot for their little bodies. One time...
