Steph-
Sorry to hear everything isn't going well with you lately. I know you have a lot to think over but I know you will make the right decision for yourself.
I had to chuckle about the doggie being 10 pounds over their weight limit for the co-op. I just hope landlords don't start doing that to us like they have been doing it to pets. Course I wonder why they set up these weight requirements for pets or animal restrictions (no dogs just cats, etc.,) since according to my old landlord young children and teenagers/college students do more damage than pets; I know the kids next door to us definitely did.
I will keep you in my thoughts while you go through this. I hope things improve for you soon. *hugs*
-Michelle

Sounds like we have the same luck....bad. I'm so sorry Adrian got this bad news. I just know you both are trying so hard to make a happy life together. People just keep getting in the way though.
Does Adrian only want to be a police officer? Does he have any other interests? Does he have any more possibilties with any police opportunities in Canada now?
It's hard to find a place to accept pets....of any size...at least that's what I'm finding. It stinks! Dogs are so awesome.
Hang in there, Steph. You guys will make it through somehow. It may not be your first choice...but they say there is more than one situation or choice that can make you happy. Life makes us compromise and work with what it gives us...even though it doesn't seem fair. It isn't fair!!! Not at all!
Please keep us updated, sweetie. I hope Adrian is okay...and that you two will have some peace with your life soon.
Hugs and love

Hi Bob
I didn't want to get into a big discussion because, from past experience, touchy subjects like politics and religion and ideoligies and such can get ugly here. That's all All I meant was that the responses to Steph's post seemed to focus on issues with the military being those such as worrying about whether your partner would be killed, the quality of the military etc.
I can't speak for Steph, but if it was me, and if my partner told me he was going to join the army, I'd have some major problems with that. I am vehemently anti-military, anti-war, anti-violence, and I would have some major issues to deal with if my partner was going to join in with that, particularly if he was going to be part of illegal wars lik in Iraq. It would not be about me worrying about whether he would get killed over there (although if he did go of course I would!) - it would be more like a wake-up call that some of our fundamental values differed greatly.

And if you're not pro-military,then why did you get your hair cut short?
ummm...that's a joke, right?

Yes Laurel I see your point. But I don't see how Stephie didn't know that years ago? Yes, yes, the haircut comment was a joke. But I do think it looks good. -Bob

Thanks Tommy! I wasn't quite right, but not too far off. The books sound interesting. Once I finish reading about the Austro-Prussian War, I'll have to check them out. I saw your lamenting about the NY state taxes. Well, I think NY has the highest income and property taxes in the US! When we lived there, my Dad was always grumbling about the property taxes. My friends still on Long Island say they've just gotten a lot worse. -Bob
