Hi, All
First, for anyone having any problems bringing up the freePatternWizard pattern creation software by using the top drop-down menu, feel free to Take This Link
Our showcase has been updated. If you've previously uploaded a showcase in the past, please check to see if it's been posted; meanwhile, if you want to submit one (or another one, if you've already posted before), feel free to do so!
Also note we now have an additional (optional) assembly page for the freePatternWizard. This is for larger pieces that have multiple pages. Much smaller patterns won't need this.

To read a particular post, simply click on it!
Thank you! Sure, that is a better idea. I will do that from now on.

Neave,
You know...from what I've seen over the years, people do some mighty stupid things. I've seen people blowing money on crap many times. I know some people who have blown money on meals out, gambling, buying drinks for people in bars...it's pretty outrageous. I used to know a young married couple with two kids. Life was hard for them, so they blew a lot of money on meals out, even though they couldn't afford to do that. When they got a little bit of money in an inheritance...they blew that, too. It was so sad to watch.

Another time they got another few thousand from some family thing, can't remember what it was, and they decided to take a vacation...because they "deserved" it. When they had other bills arise, they had to borrow money to pay them. They didn't like having to pay bills, they preferred spending on things that did nothing - but gave them temporary enjoyment.
Budgeting is one of the hardest things to do. Nobody wants to go without...people would much prefer doing what they want and enjoying...but without big-time money, many people simply fail blatantly. I don't know what the answer is to that. If things were ideal, of course, everyone would have what they need, but things aren't ideal and people don't generally like to confront the ugly truth, that they have to go without luxuries, because it hurts.
Which doesn't make it my place to judge
them, but at the same time, I've seen people throw away good advice
(and good money) in favor of having a nice time.
People have thrown away huge
inheritances, mind you, not just small ones like what the couple in
question went through so quickly.yeah when ever cal copies it from his cell phone to dvd for me haha
