Oh dear...I am reading posts backwards and I see we have trouble again. Work is getting in the way of my keeping up with DAR.

Rambi, res- We can't even get along on this thread, a fact that has me baffled at the moment..

Yes it does seem that way at the moment doesn't it. I however have gone through a detailed and painstaking analysis of the issue and have come to the following conclusion...

Bright people, that is people of a high educational level, can get easily irritated by others peoples behavior. They tend to want to control aspects of others behavior, with regard to posting, which irritate them. What I believe they (at times) don't fully understand is these threads belong to everyone on SI. The tenure of discussion can change into anything anyone wants it to. As long as people are polite, who really cares?

My humble opinion is if you don't enjoy the topic of another person, simply press next and forget it. After all is it really that big a deal? So, I guess what I'm trying to say is I would like to see people lighten up a bit and simply accept people the way they are. That's really been the best thing about this thread. Total acceptance of others views, belief's, personality, and personal anguishes. A tough concept to follow. And why it's such a rarity on the rest of the boards of SI.

Now let me tell you some really important things Miss Penni...:-)

I forgot how small a newborn baby can be. She rests on my forearm like a little doll. Her hand is as big as my fingernail, and her foot the length of my pinky. Sometimes I look around and wonder where she is, and inevitably I find her snuggled next to mommy. She rarely leaves her side, as she moves from breast feeding to sleeping. It's so wonderful seeing the beauty of a newborn again. Of course, I'm still a burping master, and changing a diaper is like riding a bike again. :-)

Ooops, I better go do some housework, been slacking on the laundry today!
