Dear Abby

Husband in knots as wife gives in-home massages

DEAR ABBY: My wife is a health freak who spends in excess of 25 hours a week doing aerobics. In addition to that, she has turned our home into a place of business. She is a professional masseuse and gives massages to both men and women. We have two children under 6 years of age. What effect do you think it will have on these children seeing their mother working behind closed doors? CONCERNED FATHER DEAR CONCERNED: Your children will not be adversely affected by seeing their mother working behind closed doors unless someone puts the idea into their heads that there is something murky or evil going on behind those closed doors. ♦ • ♦ DEAR ABBY: lam a 27-year-old Roman Catholic woman who is very much in love. I’ve been seeing “J” for seven months, and he is the love of my life. We are both divorced and have known each other for six years. (Actually, my marriage was annulled and so was his.) The problem: It’s been J’s lifelong dream to become a priest. I am willing to let him go if this is his calling, even though I love him more than anything in this world. I am leaving the choice up to “J” as to whether he wants to give all of his love to the Catholic community or to me. He is uncertain at this point, but he says he will let me know as soon as he makes up his mind. Meanwhile, I sit here wondering if I should plan for “us” or should I date others. Please help me with this very important decision. PRAYING FOR LOVE IN MASSACHUSETTS DEAR PRAYING: Don’t pray too hard to marry a man whose lifetime dream has been to join the priesthood. (If he should decide to marry you, every marital problem would probably be met with: **l should have become a priest.”) In the meantime, I think you both should have some counseling before even considering marriage. And in response to your intelligent question, “Should I date others?” I vote with a resounding “yes!”

Heloise

‘Foiled’ by the shiny side

DEAR HELOISE: This may sound like a silly question but it is the cause of an argument in my household. When wrapping an item in aluminum foil for the freezer, does the food go on the shiny side or does the shiny side remain on the outside? A Reader, Memphis, Tenn. We called a leading aluminum foil manufacturer to find out the correct response, and guess what? It really doesn’t matter which side is out. Usually the shiny side out looks better, but the food will taste the same either way. The manufacturer said that when the foil is made, it is rolled and one side of the foil gets shiny because it comes in contact with the heavy roller while the other side doesn’t, which makes that side duller. This should settle this issue, and best of all no one was wrong! Heloise DIET TIP Dear Heloise: I hate to think of myself on a diet so I think of it as watching what I eat. You know the saying that you are what you eat! I found mid-afternoon a great challenge because I would be hungry

Abigail Van Buren

DEAR ABBY: In all the summertime warnings about the dangers of swimming pools, I have yet to read any mention of the older person. I wonder just how many elderly people know how to swim? And of those who can swim, how many can swim fully clothed? A friend of mine returned home recently from a golf game to find two heavy coffee tables, two deck chairs and a chaise lounge in his swimming pool! His elderly parents, nearly prostrate, were resting speechless on the lawn. His father, an alert and active 80-year-old, for whatever reason had toppled into the pool. His mother, a tiny 85-pound woman, who, like her husband, had never learned to swim, had frantically pushed into the pool all the nearby deck furniture and, crawling on one piece to another, her husband was able to huff and puff his way safely out of the water. A swimming pool life hook (shaped like a shepherd’s staff) is so easy to use, even a child can scoop up and pull an adult to safety. One should always be on hand. Should a life hook be unavailable, pushing a “staircase” of furniture into a pool could be a life-saving maneuver. JEANE BURKE, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DEAR JEANE: One’s best chance for surviving is, of course, learning how to swim. Water safety classes are available through the American Red Cross as well as the local YMCA and YWCA. But thanks for the furni-ture-tossing idea. * * * Dear Abby’s Cookbooklet is a collection of favorite recipes all tested, tried and terrific!

and ready to eat any and everything. To solve this problem, I cut up some carrots and cucumbers and place them in a bowl. I add a few ice cubes to keep them cool and crisp and when I have a snack attack I nibble on these nutritious snacks. Sure has helped me, and the other gals in the office appreciate it as well. We even take turns bringing the veggies. Each person has a favorite so we get a wide range throughout the week. Ruby M., Flushing, N.Y. This is good nutritional advice for anybody watching calories. We do the same in our office. I like to use low-calorie salad dressing as a dip. Easy too! Heloise
