Hello! How is everyone today?


I try to keep my opinions to myself! But with my DH I express them very regular.
People always have an opinion about me having so many kids. When I go to wal mart or somewhere I get very bad looks and lots of opinions!
Like example:
That is a lot of kids. You are not having any more are you?
You know what causes that right?

LOL I just tell them I am trying for 20! That normally shuts them up!

Yall have a good day!

Some people may not want to cause you harm,,, they are just offering an opinion (even when you didn’t ask for it) but they want to be helpful. Most people don’t mean any “harm” it’s just that their information can be taken wrong. However there are those who fall into the know it all category and nothing works well in the world without their approval before hand.

That’s my 2 cents worth of story and I’m sticking to it.


If I was the other customer and heard the information NWV gave about the dog toys,,,, I would have appreciated the information and bought the toy anyway. Not all dogs are the same in their training and personalities. Nor are their masters.

When A customer brings an item into a store to get a part for it, there is no reason for another customer to look at it and say it is garbage, junk and not worth a rusty penny. That is not helpful and will only hurt someone's feelings - particularly when the owner of the item is a woman. Obviously I like the item or I wouldn't be looking for a part for it. How else could I have taken it when he said he wouldn't own one if it was given to him? I told him that was just fine with me because it wasn't for sale and if it ever was, he couldn't afford it.
