I couldn't go to the funeral, but drove 4 hours to see her the night before, and to pay my respects at the funeral home. Haven't heard from her since. Proper to call and check on her or give her more time?

It has affected me, personally, twice in recent months, and a couple of my close friends, as well. How about anyone else? Have you noticed a huge increase in theft in your area?

Everyone I've seen thinks it looks great except one person. She said it looks terrible. How do you respond to a comment like that?

Tomorrow is the day I give away my kittens. I can't keep them -- I already have too many pets. It's just so hard to let them go. Any thoughts?

For me, the best was my father's desire to always help everyone, especially at the holidays. The worst was his quick temper. I got both traits. And you?

Tue, 03 Jun 2008 09:08:15 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/783089 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/764323 I am putting together a carnival as a fundraiser on Monday -- Ring toss, Penny pitch, cake walk, balloon animals, face painting, dunk tank. What are some other easy ideas for games or booths? Fri, 23 May 2008 14:34:07 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/764323 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/763190 I've had a really bad couple of weeks -- one of my favorite cats died, I had a large amount of money stolen from me, tonight lost a long-time employee due to a disagreement. What do you do when so many things pile up on you at once? Thu, 22 May 2008 20:33:54 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/763190 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/756297 Trying to decide what to get my friend's daughter for graduation. Whatever I do, I'll have to do four more times as the younger children graduate, so I don't want to set a precedent I can't follow. I thought about a $50 gift card. Is that appropriate?

Sun, 18 May 2008 18:03:09 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/755877 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/755812 Do you cringe when you look at your profile and activity and see negative points? Do you feel like your back in school and have just gotten a test or paper back from your teacher and it has red checkmarks all over it? Sun, 18 May 2008 17:25:07 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/755812 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/752848 Caught one of my employees on tape stealing from me -- over $1,400. He is only 16. The kicker is that on the same night he stole the money, I had loaned him $20 for gas. I called the cops on him and his two accomplices (ages 18 & 29). Was I right?

Each year, on the anniversary of that day, I've sent his sister (who raised him) flowers. I want to do something different this year. Any ideas?

Why is it, when you lose a pet, someone always says, "I have a cat you can have?" or "Well, you have lots of other animals." Why are people so insensitive regarding the loss of a pet?

The vet says he likely got a virus from a tick bite, and the virus acts very quickly and is fatal to cats. Has anyone heard of this or can anyone give me any more information? Mon, 12 May 2008 11:41:19 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/745518 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/741529 I discovered today that someone has used my work computer to look up some pretty bizarre and distasteful topics. I cleared out the history, but should I mention this to my boss, or just leave it and see if it happens again, or what? Fri, 09 May 2008 20:25:13 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/741529 http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/733024 I was doing a fundraiser today for Children's Miracle Network. One lady said to me, "I'll just let the two people who had the baby take care of the baby!" How rude and uncaring! What makes people show no regard for their fellow man?
