You know you're a plugger when you hear
songs in the elevator that your parents
used to make you turn down.
Man f s recurring itch leaves wife short of scratch
DEAR ABBY: 1 am a 28-year-old mother of
three. 1 have been married to their
father, "Carl,” for eight years.
Every two years, Carl decides he
no longer wants to be a family man
and packs up and leaves. When he
goes, he leaves me destitute. I am a
stay-at-home mom with only a high
school degree.
Carl feels he should have to give
us money only after his own needs
and have been taken care of.
and then only the amount he chooses. The
most he will dole out is SSO to SIOO at a
time.
This time when he left, 1 warned him I’d
file for child support. We were on speaking
terms, and he said he loved me and wanted
us to reunite. That was until he was served
with the support papers. Now he refuses to
return my calls until I drop the suit. I love
Carl, but I can't let him withhold support
from our children. He has a good job, so
there is no reason for this.
Am 1 unreasonable? Should I drop the
suit? 1 want our family back together, but
I’m afraid he’ll leave again. What should I
do?
NEEDS SUPPORT IN TEXAS
DEAR NEEDS SUPPORT: For the sake of
your children, do not allow yourself to be
manipulated or emotionally blackmailed.
Take your cues from your lawyer. Once a
fair amount of child support has been estab
lished in a court of law or by mediation,
offer Carl the option of marriage counseling.
If he’s sincere about wanting to reconcile, he
will agree.
If he returns. 1 urge you to use that oppor
tunity to go back to school and prepare your
self to be financially independent. 1 have

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(March 12). You educate
yourself in new ways and
attract stellar opportunities!
Education affects your income
you can add another zero
to your bottom line if you fol
low through w ith moneymak
ing plans. Those w ho have
been clinging to their single
status could fall head over
heels for someone entirely
new this summer. Lucky love
signs are Aries and Virgo.
Your lucky numbers are: 3,9,
20, 10 and 34.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
When the point is to have fun,
you really get the point!
You’ve got that rare gift of
knowing how to make a party
out of life's most simple tasks.
Consider making a buck with
this skill. No one is more loyal
than Leo and Virgo.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Working in a different envi
ronment is beneficial. If
you're still thinking small, a
Taurus or Aquarius will help
you bust through mental
blocks. Pay bills electronically
so you don’t have to buy so
many checks and stamps!

Vicki comes to me crying and says she
misses Grandma. When she does, I comfort
her as best I can. but it’s hard because I
haven't let go and allowed myself to have a
really good cry. Is it OK for Vicki to see me
cry? I m afraid 1 won’t be able to stop once I
start. And if that happens, how can I comfort
my daughter?
Every week, I take fresh flowers to the
cemetery. Vicki always wants to go with me.
but I've taken her only twice. Do you think it
might help her to go with me? I'm worried
that taking her to the cemetery will only
reopen the wound of losing her grandma.
WANTING TO GRIEVE
DEAR WANTING: You have my sympathy
for the loss of your dear mother. I am con
cerned that you do not have an outlet for
your grief. Please consult your doctor or
clergyperson about locating a grief support
group to help you through this difficult time.
1 see nothing wrong with allowing your
daughter to occasionally accompany you to
the cemetery. It will teach her that although
her grandmother is gone, she is not forgot
ten. I also see nothing wrong with her seeing
you cry. However, if you think you might
lose control and be unable to stop, don’t do
it. because it would frighten her.
Under the stars’gaze
GEMIM(May2I-June2l).
The glimmer of possibility is
enticing. You believe in things
that nobody else does. Plus,
you refuse to keep hitting the
w all, even if that’s what you
were taught by traditional
minded parents. Blend per
sistence with experimenta
tion.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). You're immersed in a
task that's much bigger than
you. More assistance comes if
you show that you appreciate
the help you are already get
ting. Review goals tonight
before you go to sleep.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Social responsibility includes
putting a good word in about
yourself, what you’re up to
and the other people
involved. Decide what your
spin is going to be so you're
not just automatically focus
ing on the negative.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Someone around you natural
ly falls into the role of the
victim. Don’t walk run
away! Fabulous phone calls
come this afternoon. Finally,
you’re getting the kind you
want, not a bunch of solicita
tions and needy friends!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Consider your debt not
the kind on your monthly
credit card statement but the
karmic kind. When you
make good on that one.
you’ll heal the monetary
one. too. For fun. why not
groove to a thumping bass
line?
-e ..
should happen to your husband,
you may need to be the bread
winner. So be prepared.
DEAR ABBY: Several months
ago I lost my mother to cancer. I
am still trying to comfort myself.
My four children were close to
their grandmother, especially my
' 6-year-old daughter. “Vicki.”
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Some of the things you
enjoy are nonetheless bad for
you. but this is no time to
make drastic changes. Health
improves through portion
control. Tonight, watch your
tone, especially with a Pisces
or Capricorn.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). When the person
you’ve been having trouble
with finally digs his/her own
grave, so to speak, you’ll feel
smug. Gloating is not
advised and will only back
fire. Focus on the lessons.
Tonight, you’re sexy.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19). Loved ones have
suggestions but not good
ones. Consider what meets
your wants and needs instead
of follow ing w hat worked for
someone else. By no means
should you pay for programs
with long-term contracts.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). The mundane events of
life seem to conspire to
change your world. An
amazing journey can start
from a clerical error or a lost
shoe. Maintain your sense of
wonder, and wonderful
things continue to happen to
you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). You’ll want to upgrade
your computer or car. but
now is not the day. Put a
memory tickler in place so
that you don’t get smacked
with a finance charge, a dis
appointed friend or a late fee
on those video rentals.
