A million emotions all at once and all I could do was run to my room and well up in tears. What to do? The life- coach in me felt overwhelmed with the need to roll with it. Suck it up and not be that woman who complains and is incessantly unhappy. The micro man- aging decorator in me saw my vision for my home disintegrating in my head and wanted to stop the killing of the dream. The tug of war was excruciat- ing. I was in tears, literally. I walked in Jim Bosman, you matter What was being built would surely hold a few Glade candles at best. The tension was obvi- ous, I mean I was making waves of epic proportion or so it seemed. I worried about if I was going to make anyone mad and I worried about if I was going to have to settle for something I didn't want in order to not make anyone mad. There is no formal application form, however, all seven areas must be included for the applicant to be considered. Applicants are encouraged to include up to three letters of recommendation. It is the desire of the committee to find a recipient who shows a combination of great promise and a desire to work in Northern California following graduation. Selection of the scholarship recipient will be completed by early-May. All applicants will be informed of the com- mittee decision. Award recognition for high school seniors will be given at the high school awards ceremony in June plus the Cattlemen's Annual Winter Dinner in January. The first one thousand dollars will be awarded after the scholar provides the committee adequate proof of enrollment with a minimum of 12 units of study leading to an agricul- tural degree. The award of the second one thousand dollars will occur after the individual provides the committee ade- quate proof of completing the first semester with a 2.5 min- imum grade point average. The selection committee is comprised of five members including the President of the Tehama County Cattlemen's Association, the Director of Cooperative Extension and three members of the Tehama County Cattlemen's Association.

What I had envisioned to be a fusion of Country French and Romantic Shabby Chic was looking more Amish Simplistic. I came out of my room and started to speak about my expectations being dif- ferent. How the designer and I had made a plan to tie the mantle into the wrap on the bar in the kitchen. I point- ed with longing at the corbels on my kitchen bar and said that I knew the design included the same corbels and a large mantle that would accommodate my larger-than-life decorating expecta- tions of massive silver candle sticks. It was my mantle. The crown jewel the process of planning my cabinets and other custom pieces in my home, he always had a steady and kind approach to dealing with me. It simply can't be easy creating a vision when the visionary is a bit blind, you know. The truth was that Jim Bosman was upset that I wasn't happy. It mattered to him that my mantle did not look the way I envisioned. It mattered to him that I was happy. Needless to say, I am the happy owner of a beautifully made custom fire place complete with my over the top corbels and a mantle piece akin to an aircraft carrier that is holding a ridiculous amount of can- dles. Jim Bosman matters because he probably had to go out of his way to make me happy. He may have been frustrated with my expectations but I never had to feel a sting of being a pain in his butt.

Be kind in the Jim Bosman helped make National Alcohol Screening Day want to share a per- sonal story that I decided to be very public about: I'm a recovering alco- holic. The irony of my situation is that I made a successful career out of writing about using alcohol to cope with the stresses of parent- hood in books and in my Web column. Then one morning I woke up with the hangover from hell (I actually ended up in the emergency room), and that was literally the turning point: I got the message loud and clear that my life was a mess, and alcohol was mak- ing it that way. I remember when I '''fessed up'' to the readers of my blog, ''Baby on Bored.'' I was terrified that they'd think I was this enormous hyp- ocrite. Instead, I got countless respons- es from women thanking me and recounting their own stories about their secret drinking.

Thousands of colleges, community-based organi- zations and military installations par- ticipate in NASD. One element of the day that people should know about is the free and anonymous screenings available online. The screenings help individuals assess whether they should visit a clinician or take a similar course of action to get a handle on their drink- Lane ing. The screenings can be accessed anytime at howdoyouscore.org. Alcohol is a problem for more peo- ple than one might think — including the ''cocktail moms'' I've written about. It's a health issue that's treat- able, but it needs to be brought out into the open. National Alcohol Screening Day plays a big part in doing this. Sin- cerely — Stefanie Wilder-Taylor Dear Stefanie Wilder-Taylor: Thank you for sharing your story and underscoring the importance of screening for alcoholism. Our readers have told us in heartbreaking letters how alcohol has destroyed their lives and those of their loved ones. Once again, those who wish to be screened can do so at howdoyouscore.org Dear Annie: My daughter is get- ting married this summer, and my hus- band and I are upset about the infor- mality of the groomsmen's attire. They are planning to wear only tuxedo pants, shirts and vests. No tie, no jack- et. This is going to be a formal church wedding, and I have spent a lot of money on my daughter's dress. My husband feels this shows a lack of respect for my daughter. What is the best way to handle this without issuing an ultimatum? — Bride's Parents Dear Parents: If you are not foot- ing the bill, you don't have much say. Not to mention, this could be a way for the groomsmen to save money. If you are paying for everything, you should ask your daughter how she feels about it, and let her talk to her fiance. Other- widening ment of Transportation (Cal- trans) invites the public to an informational open house regarding a project to widen Interstate 5 to six lanes from the South Bonnyview/Churn Creek Road Interchange in Red- ding to Anderson. The open house will be 4-7 p.m. on April 12 at the Shasta Out- lets, between L'eggs, Hanes, Bali, Playtex Outlet and The California Depart- Styles for Less, 1949 High- way 273 in Anderson. This project would con- nect the six lanes being completed on Interstate 5 in Redding, with the existing six lanes south of Deschutes Road Interchange in Ander- son. The project will reduce congestion, enhance safety, and improve merging opera- tions. The project team will be available to describe the project features, answer questions and listen to con- cerns the public may have. Caltrans would like to thank the Shasta Factory Outlets Faydra Rector, MA is a mental health administrator, author, public speaker, educator and life coach who lives in Red Bluff.

What the groomsmen wear is of little impor- tance to the rest of the day, and once they start dancing, the jackets and ties come off anyway. Creating ill-will before the wedding, however, will last a very long time. Dear Annie: I didn't care for your response to ''Senior Citizen Who Respects Women.'' You said: ''Many readers pointed out that these women may not wish to have sex outside of marriage, a perfectly respectable posi- tion. If that's the case, however, they should tell him so he understands the ground rules and doesn't keep badger- ing them.'' explain themselves? Even if everyone else is having premarital sex, a lady doesn't have to give reasons for being inaccessible. And it's insulting to assume she would otherwise crawl in the sack. — Lois Dear Lois: As a matter of etiquette, Why should the women have to no woman is required to explain a refusal to become intimate. As a prac- tical matter, however, if you want to keep dating a man who keeps asking about sex, it helps to explain your posi- tion.
