Hi, Karen and Karen B., I have no idea what the name of this plumeria is. I got it as a gift 2 years ago from my cousin in TX. The bright yellow was the 1st branch that bloomed. The other 2 pics are of the new red rimmed flower on the 2nd branch that has just opened up. If you look at the buds in both pics, they are very different. The yellow has bloomed 2 years in a row now and they've looked exactly alike. I hope these pictures come through so you can see them! I have no idea what I'm doing! lol I wanted to put bigger pics on here so you could easily see the buds.

Downloading and installing Returnil is simple. If the above doesn't open the keylogger program...that simply means that "Keylogger" isn't on your computer. There are many other programs that record everything you do. "Keylogger" was just the first one I tried. Returnil works great. You can get every virus in the world and just reboot, and your computer is clean. Last night, I put it through the tests...I visited those adult sites and got loaded down with viruses. I even tried to destroy my computer by deleting every windows file I could. As soon as I rebooted...everything was back to normal, like nothing ever happened. This program works from your memory and nothing is written to, or deleted from the hard drive. I've been using Returnil for about a year. It beats all AV software...hands down, and wipes out all changes made to your system just by restarting your computer. If you want the best award winning software for complete protection...Returnil is it. If you are really just wanting to spy on DH...try keylogger, available at download.com

I agree with everyone, including the OP, on all the gaffes here. I would cut them a little slack; the mom-to-be is pregnant and not feeling well, there is a divorce going on, and maybe more we don't know about -- etiquette probably seems relatively unimportant right now to this family. But still, the point here isn't that they didn't do anything wrong; they did. What the OP does about it, though, is another thing. I don't blame her for not wanting to attend -- it sounds like it will be very tense, and of who wouldn't feel like a chump with the information about the greediness? But I wouldn't withhold my presence as punishment for bad manners. It isn't the guests' place to teach the host and guest of honor manners, even if they are wrong (and it wouldn't work anyway). Leaving early in an obvious show of disapproval would be very rude (and mean). Certainly don't suggest cancellation or rescheduling -- of course they have already thought of those options, so it would not really be a suggestion, just a criticism. I assume that the OP is close to these people, either a relative or the one friend attending. I would let that be the guiding factor here, not their behavior. I think it kind of boils down to how you feel about making this family happy, dabunch. Suppose they hadn't violated any etiquette rules -- a friend gave the shower, the mom was to be there, no comment about wanting gifts -- would you be wanting to gladden their hearts and celebrate with them? Then do it anyway. Your presence and good wishes should be offered or withheld not on a merit system of how they are behaving, but on how you want to make them feel. So if you love these people, I would go to this awful party and do it with a smile. We would all want our friends and relatives to do that for us if we made a mistake, I'm sure. Stay away only if you think you cannot be gracious the whole time -- no snarky whispers to other guests, tempting though it would be! Perhaps all the other guests feel as you do and will NOT hold back. It would be a real kindness to the hostess to be a supportive guest -- maybe the only one. Good luck! Take public transportation so that if there is wine, you can use that to get through the party ....

Vith, thanks for the lingo correction, that`s one of the things I was looking for. We did have a HVAC guy do a walk-through yesterday, and he says that what we see are different stages of central air wisdom. When the house was built, there were as many air supply as air return vents, and when the addition was made, the thinking was to have one or two big air supply vents in the center of the house and only air returns in the bedrooms, so we ended up with a weird hybrid. I do have some temperature issues with the master bedroom being too hot (in the summer), but apparently that`s because it`s a corner room that gets afternoon sun. I asked the HVAC guy about rebalancing (didn`t know the term, but that`s what I meant), and he said he can bring expensive equipment to test that, but he suggests spending the money on another air return in the master instead. So given that I got a `possibly uncomfortable but not serious` vibe, I figured I`ll wait and see what happens in the winter before acting. And we`ll do the attic insulation next.
