Dryer Balls are the safe, natural, easy way to soften
fabrics while saving money on fabric softeners, dryer
sheets and energy. Best of all...There's No Chemicals!
The unique design relaxes the fibers during the drying
cycle leaving clothes softer and towels more absorbent.
As they tumble around in the dryer they lift and separate
fabrics allowing air to flow more efficiently thus
reducing drying time up to 25%.
Use them over and over again and they last for years! Each
package contains 2 Reusable, Non-Toxic Dryer Balls. Do
yourself and the environment a favor and grab a set. Visit:

HUSBAND'S MANY CONQUESTS LEAVE WIFE FEELING DEFEAT
DEAR ABBY: I'm a 58-year-old woman who has been married 40
years. I married at 18, put my husband through school and
raised three children.
We have now been separated five years, after I found out that
my husband had had numerous affairs. The last one lasted
three years and I had no idea. During his last affair, he
had the woman in our home and told her personal things about
me. He lied and told her we were getting a divorce.
We have not divorced. Financially it would be hard. I can't
seem to get over the pain and hurt. He still calls to see if
I am OK. I continually visualize him with the other women.
Thirty-five years is a long time, and he's the only man I
have ever known.
I want to get over him, but it's hard. I now work full-time.
My husband constantly sought women who admired his power
and status in the community. I don't think I can ever get
over his hurting me so. I tried counseling. It didn't work.
He continues to call, which keeps me hanging. Should I break
all ties? Is that what's holding me back?
-- SAD IN OHIO
DEAR SAD: Let me talk to you like a friend and offer a
suggestion: Talk to an attorney. After 40 years of marriage
to a man with "power and status," one wealthy enough to
afford serial "cookies" on the side, he must have accumulated
enough assets that you shouldn't have to hold down a full-
time job.
If you availed yourself of some of the assets to which you
may be entitled, you might have enough to get more counseling
and do some traveling, which might help to lessen your un-
happiness. THEN you can decide whether or not to break all
ties.

DEAR ABBY: With graduation announcements pouring in every
day from everyone whom I have ever known who has a child
graduating, I think I have seen a new low.
I actually received a photocopy of a high school graduation
announcement. There was no picture, no personal note, just
a photocopy folded into a cheap envelope. The "real" ones
had been sent to more "important" people.
My question is, should I send the kid a photocopy of a
congratulations card and a photocopy of some money? What's
the best way to handle this?
-- FLABBERGASTED IN THE SOUTH
DEAR FLABBERGASTED: If you have not seen the graduate since
grammar school and aren't particularly close to the family,
just toss it!
DEAR ABBY: I saw the letter you printed recently about
"pennies from heaven" and thought I would share my story
about a coin of a different kind.
My son died at the age of 16 following an auto accident.
Among the feelings I was having was guilt that he didn't
get to go to Italy with his Latin class the spring before
his death because I couldn't afford it. Now, he would never
get to go.
One day after returning to work, I was getting into my car
and noticed a coin on the seat. I picked it up and was
shocked to see it was an Italian lira! I took that as a
sign that he DID get to see Italy, and I keep it in the
frame with his picture.
-- CHRISTOPHER'S MOM IN EVANSVILLE, IND.
DEAR MOM: Please accept my sympathy for the tragic loss of
your son. The coin was sent to comfort you, and I'm glad
it served its purpose of tempering your feelings of guilt
and loss.
