that is "did not do" and I did ask her - sm
advice. Yeah, very tired. I hope the spelling police don't pull me over!
"Did you find one that fit" is inappropriate? I don't think so.

Probably got her period or something just as --
silly. She was ordered back to court this morning though and I bet will end up back in jail as the sheriff messed up big time. This "medical" condition has never reared its ugly head before so why now.
No, I mean no alcohol period. nm

No wonder I got my period early!!
:)
I wouldn't have it. Period. sm

Let's Review:  Because this man has no decency for manners and boundaries, his father is no better, so you should sit there and squirm?


Get your "@$&s* back, girl!  I wouldn't spend one more afternoon like this.


But I would never have let it gotten this far.  But that doesn't mean that you can't turn this thing around.  He is an adult, as are you.  Too bad someone will have to stand up and be the real one.  Yes, I'm on your side.  Totally! 


Keep us posted.


My Friday is Sunday, end of the pay period.

Most teachers have at least one planning period when they
can grade papers. If their job requires work-related hours away from school, they are given comp time.
But you know how long a normal period
should last, so therefore you take matters into your own hands and be more assertive before you drop over.
(Actually Harry S Truman. No period after the S.

I wouldn't talk about it again with him, period.
I doubt you will ever get it unless he grows up and accepts responsibility for himself.

I wouldn't waste my breath and energy being upset over it any longer. If he came over or called me talking about it, blaming me, I'd hang up or tell him to leave and push him out the door.

The day he can speak to me with decent respect and take his own accountability like a man is the day I would open that door or stay on the phone with him.

Ridiculous.
I just 'knew' long before my period was even
late. I also knew I was having a girl even though everyone kept telling me it would be a boy. Strange how the mind/body works! My breasts were also horribly tender at about 1-1/2 to 2 months along. My money is on you deserving some congratulations... :)
I agree, a 2-1/2 year old is gross, period.
But a blanket over the toddler? The kid would probably start playing peek-a-boo and winking and laughing. How about that for a visual. Ick! lol
Gosh - I'm dressed when working, period. LOL

Period pain after LEEP procedure
I had LEEP for cervical cancer a few years back.  Cancer is gone now, but I have horrible periods.  Am I alone?  Does anyone else suffer since LEEP surgery?  I also have fibromyalgia which only adds to the discomfort. 
Get an excuse, for a normal period that most all girls have?
You seem to be jumping to higher ups before anyone talks with the teacher. I would ask for a conference with that particular teacher to see what is said about the incident. Can you just image giving every female off for having a period? Does that seem like you should have an excuse for something that is so normal? I say introduce the daughter to tampons, welcome to the adult world!

Cold/sinus infection with beginning of period?

Okay, here's the deal.  The day before my period, for the last year or so, I get a horrendously bad cold/sinus infection/flu-type process.  It usually goes away about a day or two after my period.  I have never ever had this happen before and its really bad this month.  I have all the symptoms... stuffiness, red runny eyes, runny stuffy nose, pounding headache, throat like daggers, etc.  It started as postnasal drip yesterday and I thought ohhh great... here we go.  Needless to say I was up most of last night in complete tears because of the pain of it all and not being able to swallow at all.  I have tried researching on the internet about this happening, but can't find any information.  Has anyone heard of this or had this happen?  I just want to stop it.  truly, I would take the worst god awful cramps over this torture.  I have had this both on and off the pill and I am only 31.  Any information would be appreciated as I know what a wealth of information our community could be.  Unfortunately, I am in Europe and so I can't go to my GP easily.  The doctors here don’t do anything about anything unless its major either and I know they will brush it off as some silly sinus infection, but it happens every month and goes away in 3 days on its own, so it can't be a run of the mill thing.  Any advice is welcome.  I go home to the US in 6 months and I can wait if I have to, but maybe some angel out there knows something to help.  I have tried tons of medications and herbal things/natropathic and nothing works except my period being established.


 


Thanks in advance and sorry for the icky topic. ;)


If a person hasn't had a period in 13 years, doesn't that
My money is riding on the tumor theory posted below.
Still entitled to my opinion: Shocking animals is cruel, period.
NM
Yes, sore breasts and missed period are definitely good indicators...
take a test already and let us know--lol
Wow, you sound like
someone with real compassion for animals - NOT.

I personally would rather have my tax money go for this cause as opposed to going to cover welfare and disability incomes of people who are perfectly capable of working and just choose not to because they can. But that's just my opinion.
You know what? If it were me, and I know this may sound sm
way off to some people, but I would treat this young boy with love! Invite him over, talk to him, show him that someone truly loves him. I would invite him to church and pray for him. I know, totally unconventional. He acts that way because of his parents. He needs good, godly role models in his life. I would try my best to be that person.

I think too many people try to throw away bad kids. It's such a shame. They can be rehabilitated. 11 isn't that old. And I am not saying that is your responsibility because it's not! I understand that. But if I lived there, that is what I would do and see how that works. That saying, "love makes the world go round," is because love can turn a bad situation around. Bad always reaps bad.

I know because just this past Wed. I kept 5 kids at my house (I have 3 of my own!) and we stayed outside and played until 9 at night. I live out in the country and have a lot of land, animals, a pool, etc. The kids I had over has a dad serving in Iraq and I just wanted to give their mom a break. They don't have a yard where they live. They played until they collapsed. I ordered pizza and just loved on them. I see their mom struggling with them and I just wanted them to have a place where they could let loose and have a great time. One of them was a little ornery, but I would talk to her and be sweet and I really think I brought the best out in her. They brought their collie with them to play too and he ended up staying! So, we also have a new dog and we love him!

Good luck to you. I know this probably hasn't helped you much at all, but try not to be mad at him.
You sound
like a real taker and nasty, changing dirty diapers on a conference table?? I would have been finished with you then also. Gross. I have been at time share meetings before but a good answer is NO! Did not have to resort to a free this or that and I know how to get a point across without being offensive.
you sound like me

I have read people use timers to get themselves away from the computer when reading email on their working days.  For me, I keep talking to myself and saying "just do it"  especially when I feel the urge I want to begin and don't want to delay getting started any longer.  I was more energetic when I was a SE. 


Here's the sound for ya ...sm

How do you know who I am? You sound
xxx
That does sound a lot like us
I'm one of those tweeners size-wise; I'm not fat and not thin, wearing somewhere around a 10-12 jean, a 16 shirt, 5Ǝ", 170 pounds. But three children and breast-feeding have taken a toll, not to mention the varicose veins and a few randomly scattered keratoses. Like yours, mine claims (and acts) interested until it's actually bedtime, but then finds reasons not to come to bed. Like you also, the supposedly wanted advances have frequently been rejected (not outright, but more a 'not now' thing), so I've kinda quit putting myself out there, too. Fortunately, there are things that still say everything else is okay so I'm sticking it out, but with the price of batteries going up, we may have to find a better solution!
you sound like the big sis I need
Thanks for your note. I could be making more of this than what is really necessary. It is a horrible way to live (always planning for the worse and worrying about what's going on for things we can't control). I think he realized today that all the negative news and me having to work was really getting me down. I just feel myself getting heavier and heavier and I'm so exhausted right now I feel like I'm about to fall asleep and I have got to finish the rest of my work (about another 4 hours). The reason we don't celebrate holidays is actually an agreement we both have. We used to celebrate holidays but every year I found myself so depressed because I've been away from home for close to 30 years and it is still hard, and I cant just go home every year. And he does not like family rituals or whatever those things are called (can't think of the word), as in it's Thanksigiving so we eat Turkey because it's thanksgiving (family traditions - that's it). So over the years I found it easier to deal with the holidays by not celebrating them. If I do cook a turkey on Thanksgiving its because I feel like having turkey that day.

When I say I can't throw too much at him, he doesn't have health problems, but he just can't handle too much. We take one situation at a time. I learned that years and years ago. Me, I'll do 10 things at once, but I keep it simple for him otherwise, so he doesn't get too overwhelmed. Yes I know he's a big boy, but not all men act like it.

I may not be expressing myself too good at this point. I'm so exhausted and need to go lay down.

Thanks for listening. I liked your last line bout thinking his down and out feelings are more important than my well being. I will be thinking on that one more.

Thanks again.
you sound like me -
for the past couple of years, I have said, let's forget the gifts and just spend the day together at my mom's house -- but oh no, that would be horrible if we did not buy presents. This year, my sister's husband lost his job and now it's automatic, we are not going to be buying gifts.

I always wonder, why is it that one person in the family always seems to make the decisions for everybody else?
This is going to sound very mean, s/m
but I have three full grown cats and two of them won't leave the tree alone.  We go through this every year.  For the first two days, I do not plug the lights in but sit waiting with my squirt gun.  Once they are in the tree, I shoot.  They run.  Normally after the first two days, they won't climb it again, but they will sit underneath it and bat at the balls on the lower part of the tree, which I make sure are plastic just for them.  So far this has worked for me.  Now if anyone can find a way to keep them off the counter, let me know!  I have tried pepper, hot sauce, two sided tape and the squirt gun.   
You sound like the
Geez!

I'd rather live next to the cows and pine trees any day!
You sound like me. ...sm
We seem to get the strays. I don't have the heart not to try to take care of them. I am a succer for dogs.
If he has pit in him you definitely do not want to call animal control. I would just feed him and show him love and try to find him a home. I would just tell my husband look he has nowhere to go. Until I find his owner or a new owner I will be taking care of him. My husband gets annoyed with me too, but he won't deny a dog food and care.
LOL, you sound like me
Except not only would I start fights, if my BF was even 5 minutes late coming home I'd have his clothes and stuff on the front porch and him locked out. I'd make him beg and apologize for about 30 minutes before letting him in (but make him wait 30 more minutes before allowing him to bring his stuff back in so I could 'think about it'). Finally I realized why I was doing it and, once I did, I worked really hard on thinking before I did anything.

It takes a long time to drag yourself out of that craving for chaos. Now when I want thrills, I suggest he and I go do something crazy together instead of me throwing his belongings onto the front porch and it's been smooth sailing ever since, lol!

I would still like to know if the OP had the same type of upbringing we did. Hopefully she'll post again soon.
This may sound dumb...
but it's driving me crazy. Does anyone remember a Jewish actress, around 60-ish now, with very short dark red hair, very prominent features, large nose.  I think she played in a sitcom maybe as someone's mom. We saw her tonight in New York and all recognized her but none of us can remember what show she was on!  Just wondering if anyone might be able to help us figure this out.
This may sound a bit weird., but /sm
I read your post and got to thinking about when I lived in a really large house and kept missing the knocks at the front door. I got myself one of those wireless doorbells, and would take the "bell" part from room to room with me when I was expecting a delivery... I wonder if you could take the part that usually screws onto the door frame and put it on a necklace or something for you mother to wear and "ring the doorbell" when she needs help, and then take the "bell" part from room to room. Actually mine was loud enough I didn't need to pick it up and move it unless I was going upstairs. They might even sell them with 2 or more receivers (what I call "bells") so you could hear it ring on whatever floor you are on.

Good luck. I took care of my uncle when he had lung cancer and we rigged up a baby monitor for him, but he was in a 1-story house and I could hear him except at night time, so I can empathize.

What do you think? I know this may sound crazy, but here goes. sm

I am in my mid 30s and currently having orthodontic treatment done. The doctor is so sweet (great looking too!).  I find him staring at me whenever I come in there, unusually so.  He's very, very attentive to me when he sees me.  Fast forward to yesterday. I paid all of treatment within 3 months using insurance and cash (close to 5,000) and I received a letter today. He told me that he was so impressed with the way I set goals to pay my treatment in such a short time.  Then he went on to say he was "looking forward to getting to know me better."


Okay. I was a little shocked. Is this normal? I've never had this happen before. It was a personal, hand written note.


Anyways, just wondering what your thoughts would be on this.  He is the kindest, gentlest doctor I've ever been around.  But, that's besides the point.


Just wanted to share this with you all. Not really looking for advice. Just thought it was weird.


Okay - this is going to sound crazy
But if you are an MT and this is MT business - you might consider contacting the AAMT - which is stationed in Modesto, Calif - even if you are not a member you'd think they could be halfway helpful.  I'm familiar with the Sacramento area and could tell you places to stay away from there in Stockton and Sacramento but not familiar with Modesto.  Sorry and best of luck!!
Doesn't sound right
under those circumstances. Then whenever someone wanted new wall-to-wall they could just crap it up themselves and submit a claim and get a new rug.

At any rate, even if this is somehow true, the insurance company will only jack up your rate or drop you all together, so you're going to pay either way. And then you'll have a claim history and no other company will want you either.
We tried the sound machine...
and he didn't like that. I think he likes the air flow even if it's not directed at him. I hadn't ever thought about the cost that fan is running constantly.

I'm not clear about the white board (drywall?, white boards that you write on?) but certainly is a consideration. I could make that easily removeable and yes cover with fabric. Thanks for the ideas too.
Never will be another Motown sound
or anything close to it. Gosh there was no one who wasn’t the best there, was there? Kids off the street (as in Idol) getting the chance of their lifetime and giving us all that wonderful music. I can sing along with so many of the songs from back them. Such fond memories.
You have to be honest with him, but you do sound a bit. SM

codependent on him.  Something to think about.  I've been married twice (once for 10 years and to my current husband for 4 years) and you cannot change people.  You have to work on things together and try to change things together.  I man will never read your mind and do what you want.  You have to be very blunt with the male species and tell them what you want and need, but be careful about being too needy as that could be a turn off.


You must love him for who he is.


Good luck!  I wish someone would have told me some of this stuff 15 years ago, but I'm in my mid 30s and still learning.


You sound so much like my daughter.
She did it all, no wedding planner. I did not see her dress until the day of the wedding. She asked to see what I would be wearing as she thought (being as I am known for liking flash, sequins and the like) I might try to be over the hill according to her. It met with her approval but I know her and know what she would not like. She had a beautiful wedding and she, like you, a control freak, some are, some arent but that is what makes people interesting. She is a highly independent person so we talk often, I do not get into their business and think things are good like they are. If she needs me she knows the number.
You sound like one of the monitors here.
a
It does sound good, but (sm)
DH refuses to live in a community where they can tell him to mow his grass.  Now mind you, our community is pretty secluded, and most of the people here do keep it up, but he is of the old school where if it is your house and the grass gets a little too high, it's your own business.  We don't like it trashy either.
You sound like hyperthyroid
with hypothyroidism your metabolish slows to a snail and you can actually gain weight. I have the one with the weight gain but never had the feeling of a lump in my throat and no throat pain. Dry skin, hair loss also goes with mine and the tiredness- hey I also have fibromyalgia and tiredness goes with that so I get a double whammy there. I do get really tired sometimes, just bone tired. I have not had some of the symptoms you talk about.
This is going to sound terrible
but my dad used to tell us if he caught us flipping the bird at anyone he would chop our middle fingers off. Of course he wasn't serious and I was the only one gullible enough to believe it.

Also I remember my grandma telling me when I was really young that kids that bite have to have all their teeth pulled out. God, it sounds like I had a horribly sadistic family but they really werent! LOL

I also remember being told if we swallowed watermelon seeds they could grow in our stomachs.
First sound of thunder I am off and see msg

Would you honestly want to be stalked by a man you thought you got rid of 19 years prior??? If the answer is yes, then I will gladly introduce you two.
