Get a new car? Ha!
OdorXit (online) makes a product that neutralizes even pet urine. Look at their website... It's not the spray, it's a tablet or packet.

My parents used to cut up a scented candle and put it under the seat. But I don't think Mom ever spilled collards. When I worked for Alstate they advised us that a cut up apple could absorb orders.

Personally, I'd have the interior detailed.

I have an air purifier that might help, but I'm in Illinois.

Sigh, indeed. So much of the news is heart-sickening.

Perhaps I speak for both of us, this in not the America I grew up in.

I try to remember that God is in control, but somedays it is very hard to remember that!

Everything about this picture is beautiful. :)

^^^ you are dear! I hope you are having a wonderful day!

They are all so sweet-looking and special!!

I noticed how tall Zach is getting! I'm glad you were able to be with the grands.

The girl to your right and the little boy in front have your smile!
And your hair is really HAIR now! You look cute :)

OPI Cajun shrimp or something like that. Count on me to pick a polish named after FOOD. :P

I love this photo, the girls are all in blue, so precious.

Mine did the best she could...now I can see that so much of my mother had to do with abandonment issues because of her father. Then, she married a man whose job took him away from home and incommunicado for days at a time (dad was an undercover narc--but he was a state trooper when she married him, which would have felt stable)...I can easily see why things were the way they were, now.

My mother was a beautiful woman.
However,
Like the girl with the curl,
When she was good, she was very, very good..
But,
When she was bad, well...you know the rest of the story.
I loved her. A lot.

I came back to add that I do love my mom. I am blessed to still have her!

I often think about my mom having me at just 18 yrs of age, with barely enough to survive on. Hard to criticize much when you consider the circumstances... And for being 18 to start, she did so many things exceptionally well.

Love my mommy! So glad the God chose me for her. I see her in me and my children a lot. Her family situation was not the best but she had two things she knew she wanted to happen for her three girls, she prayed to God to live long enough to raise them and she wanted them to feel love. She can check both of those off now but we still need her more than ever even though we are technically "raised." Happy Mother's Day to you!

You have such a gift for stating things wisely and well, with very few words :) We all need to extend a little grace... especially to our moms :) I'm gonna need a lot of it!

I do not know what the Arias's case or trial is so maybe my opinion doesn't matter, but I know the case of OJ or Scott Peterson etc. The sensationalism of trials is a long held tradition. People were filing into courtrooms for Lizzie Borden's murder trial over a hundred years ago and people showed up at the Hangin' :) of those convicted of some crime in the assasination of Abraham Lincoln. Do we all have some inate sense of wanting to see justice done. Probably. Sometimes, as in the trial of Scott Peterson for the murder of his wife Lacey and his unborn son Conner, I was really hoping for a closure for myself. That was going on while I was pregnant and postpartum with JT. I felt connected to the story, not in a morbid way but in a way that made me angry and confused. Angry that this girl didn't get to have the same joy I did when I held my son, mad that her mother was deprieved of her daughter, symphathic for everyone close to her that had to go on without her and confused about why people do horrible things to other people. I had to watch the trial. I wanted to see justice served and I wanted that closure...but even after the guilty verdict came in, I was still left with the same feeling. It did not solve anything. So I say all that to say that maybe some people really do want closure, and justice and even a bit of venegenace. But I willing to say too that they probably leave those gatherings not really any better. Typically in these situations there are no winners, just all of us losers because of sin.

Very forward-thinking of you! I don't suppose I'd take the time to gather for a verdict, unless it involved me personally.

Reminds me of public hangings--or OT stonings.

Um, they have lots of spare time to make idiots of themselves on the TV because they're not working, because they're collecting a government check. Meanwhile, I am not there, because I HAVE TO WORK to pay for their food stamps and WIC and subsidized housing and Obamaphones. And that's probably not all... (Or should I say "prolly" since that seems to be the New English?)
Are you ranking your responses?

You would think she was the only person who ever murdered anyone. Personally, I am disgusted by all the attention for this one person when thousands of minority children are being murdered in our cities with useless remedies being offered. Shall I also include the millions of abortions?

I didn't follow the trial and only knew about it from stumbling on to news reports.

I am unfamiliar with the case, but I have never felt inclined to spend my days waiting for the outcome of a trial. That's not to say that I never will, just hasn't happened yet. I did see some of the OJ thing, but usually out of the corner of my eye. I can almost guarantee that I would not go stand on the courthouse steps.

Nope, I wouldn't gather outside the courthouse. I wouldn't want any further mention of her name in the news/twitter/etc. I wouldn't buy her artwork. I think we give way too much attention to these people. Innocents get hurt when we turn a trial into a showpiece for the nation. I don't think we should flash pictures of mass murderers either. Let the crime be reported without the "glory" for the shooter/bomber

People are weird

These kids are pretty good. Do they remind you of anyone?
