RJW- Your post was great! My husband also 40ish hates to be called cute! But it beats the opposite, right?
Also very thoughtful words for LilmsFoodie.

Another rave - the great and FUN people on this board.

rj-Instead of cute, we'll call you HOT! rj you are hot! How's that? Saw a guy at my class reunion, used to be overweight, big overbite and generally a dorky looking guy. He was HOT! All the girls were just drooling! Like a fine wine, we improve with age. ;-)

Rant-Destruction caused by hurricanes.

Rave-Bless my daughter's first grade class, they were praying for all those in the hurricanes and Iraq. Out of the mouths of babes...

Rant-Sat in my ob/gyn's office for 2 hours the other day.

Rave-New Year's Weekend at Put-in-Bay, the last big hurrah. Weather is supposed to clear up.

rant: buckeyemom, I had a 'talk' with my husbands cardiologist the other day about that very same thing.

As a professional, I would never ever consider keeping a client waiting.

If I have a 11:30 appointment, I expect to SEE the DOCTOR by 12 Noon at the very latest.

To me, that is unprofessiional and unacceptable to keep someone waiting that long.

Family members are in the medical business and know this just frosts my butt.

Rave: I like the name rjthehottie!
