that is what does it on the program/platform I work on.
Sorry am hitting age 60.
In your circle of friends and family that is the way but I know of many ranging from 35 to 60+ that definitely want a man to take care of them. Don't know why that would make them vote for a woman but whatever. Just don't think that this shows egg on his face, yours??????
No way is someone hitting my kid in school
I went to Catholic school and we had a paddle. However, if any teacher had attempted to hit me with that thing, I would have kicked their rear. Seriously. I'm all for giving your kid a swat on the butt when needed, but that is up to me, not the school. Plus, swatting a kid for being tardy is ridiculous!
They should bring the dog in and tie the dog-hitting kids.....
:(
Thonk! That was me hitting you on the forehead,,,

Your hostility is strange. Must be hitting a nerve.
Maybe it's your conscience; otherwise you wouldn't care that other people see this differently than you do. It's not like anybody is going to track down your kids and spoil your fun, so you are the one overreacting.
Sore thumb joints from hitting space bar (sm)
They are sore on the opposite side of the thumb, not the underside that hits the space bar. Does anyone know anything I can wear on my thumbs to prevent this from getting worse? I'm afraid I'm giving myself arthritis in my thumbs! Thanks
Obviously, this is turning out to be
a beauty contest or a pick the worst singer contest to see how long that person will stay.
This is getting ridiculous.
When Sanjayea, or however you spell his name, is in the bottom three but he has more votes, JUST SAY HE DOES NOT. Who knows how many votes anybody has anyway????
I am sorry but he is AWFUL and should not be there.
I have a son turning 7...sm
in a month and a half. Last year for his 6th birthday party, we had it at the local fire department. They do parties for free and set it up in their bay, let the kids roam around the fire trucks, get the pics taken, tour the fire house, etc. Towards the beginning they got a call and had to leave but the kids thought that was cool too. They had a limit on the number of kids they could hold in their bay.
This year for his upcoming birthday, we have reserved an indoor pool at the local community center for 2 hours. There is no limit on the number of people and we get our own lifeguard. This makes it very convenient for us as we are inviting 30 kids to the party and some of them have younger siblings that will probably also arrive.
Hey - the more the merrier. They are only young for a short time. Remember to have lots of fun and make some memories.
I am not turning this to a religion argument- sm
I prefer not to have my child taught at a church school for personal reasons. The school they were attending squeezed in church teachings as it is, though they were not a church school, and I was not thrilled with that either. Some teachers did it more than others. As for find a teacher that "really cares" only being at a church affiliated school, that is quite a broad statement to make. At the private school my kids had been attending, the teaches were paid 25% less than what the teachers made at the public school level, which could mean 3 things, the teacher really cared and wanted a small class size to teach, (2) wanted kids that were less troublesome to teach and better behaved (3) the teacher was inadequate and could not get hired in a public school (which was the case for a few teachers where my kids were). ---There are a lot of angles to look at when considering private school religion is one of them, tuition, quality of the teachers, certification, the school board, the parent organization, the involvment expects --ours was extreme involvement which is good and bad (burnout)--I am much happier now with the kids in public school, and my 8-y/o is now actually being taught by a qualified computer teacher and not some old lady who knew nothing about computers or computer programs trying to make a few extra bucks having the kids make designs and pictures on the computer (they had a new computer teacher every year as they'd quit every year). There are pros and cons to every school, you got to find out what you want to deal with.
so turning router off disables it?
I have a wireless router (not OP, BTW) and have never thought about turning it off...does that mean it will reset every morning when I log in to work? Thanks!
talk about turning around my words
Just because you teach your children that something is wrong to do does not teach them hate. I am sorry that you are so closed minded that knowing when something is wrong causes you to hate. My children are not so one sided and can separate the action from the person.
Birthday parties. What do ya'll do? I have a son turning 6 sm
and it's like we know everyone in the world! We are booking this place that can hold a lot of kids, so it's not like I'm paying by head count. He's turning 6, so I wasn't going to invite "girls" but ended up inviting both because I know that some parents would get their feelings hurt. Do you tend to do that? Like invite so and so because so and so knows so and so and if you don't invite so and so, so and so might get offended? LOL
I just sent out the invites and 5 families are invited who have kids that don't really play with my son but I know that if they "found out" we had a party and their kids weren't invited they would be hurt.....
Ahh, the trial and relationships of life! Okay, so why did I do it? Because I hate hurting people's feelings and I don't do it if it is in my power not to do it. So there.
All kinds were turning up their noses when I posted below and yet
this post I guess is considered very professional. What a big laugh.

Turning on floodlites and playing ball in yard with

Olympics - Female Chinese gymnasts - Do you think they were all 16 or turning 16?
I know our girls messed up, but I sure don't think those girls were all 16... just no way.
Is the Turning Stone? If so, LOVE and miss that place. LinK, if I ever sm
get back home (from Rome, NY), let us get together! You sound like a lot of fun! I've been looking at places to stay and visit for a while now - didn't realize Turning Stone had a lodge now? When I lived there (mid-90s) they didn't have it then.
Boy, do I miss upstate NY and snow. Haven't seen snow in YEARS. I'm in GA now. Have fun!!!!!
Just a light dusting. nm

Happy - very light

TLR-maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel
and I'm sorry your mom is not well. I will keep both of you in my prayers.
I hope tomorrow is a better one for all of us.
The light boxes would be much
healthier than tanning booths.
Thank goodness I am too claustrophobic to use tanning booths or I probably would have when I was younger. As it is I laid out in the sun a lot when I was in my 20s, and have the age spots to show for it.
Need some light and laughter.
You know, I have been reading the gab board all weekend and into today and there have been a lot of depressing posts and help needed everywhere. I got to thinking today that lots of things are going wrong this Christmas and maybe we need to reflect on our own lives. I have felt sad and sorry for all the posts I have read.
Mine may seem trivial, but after today's soul searching and reading of the boards, it hit me hard. I am an animal lover. I have 3 indoor cats and have been taking care of a feral cat clan, helping out a local feral cat society. It is a long story but I kind of fell into it. I was taking care of 9 outdoor cats, males mostly with 1 adult female and 2 female kittens (I got them spayed). Well, tonight we found one of the feral cats was hit by a car near our driveway. It hit me hard, even though she *technically* wasn't mine. We named her Momma (original, huh) because she was the mom to all of the kittens over the years. She was a beautiful cat and a terrific mother. She never let me pet her but appreciated me and my time taking care of her kittens. I only regret not taking a picture of her. She was gray with green eyes. My husband buried her in our yard as we were the only family she really knew. My heart goes out to the strays, and it hurts me to know she never really was loved on this earth except by me. I just wanted to post this to have other people send thoughts her way and just think of a cold feral cat in need of love. I will never forget her.
I know it seems petty compared to all of the other issues brought up on this board and don't want to be a *Debbie downer*. I really did want everyone to think of her and a lonely animal in their life whom they could touch and take care of.
Thanks for reading :(
I have to agree with you. IMO, we need to keep it light.
xx
He can light my fire! ;)
The Australian guy that sang the Doors song 'Light My Fire' is GOOD-LOOKING. Doesn't hurt that he sounds good also ;)
Sorry, I don't mean to make light of the
situation from the OP. However, people are going crazy over this and the individual being discussed is not even a part of this conversation. For all anyone knows, this had been handled and the dictator did not mention it in his dictation or has been handled since, so why are so many in an uproar????
I am not in the military, but my nephew is in the Army, and in his unit each situation is handed on an individual basis--there is not a blanket protocol for things of this nature.
Maybe they light themselves, and last for a whole year!
Maybe they blow themselves out too!
She gets a light and the TV on all night, but...
she says it is not fair that she has to be lonely in her bed and the grownups have somebody to snuggle with.
And, shall we say, light in the loafers!

Light a candle... see message
The next time you "feel" someone is with you by some strange occurence happening, light a candle. Communicate with them, actually talk out loud to them, let them know that you are thinking of them. Ask them questions. When you go to bed that night, write down the questions you may have for them and then see if you have any insightful dreams.
I absolutely love this stuff!
Anne
I just tries to keeps it light in this crazy world is all...
Ever see the movie "Clueless?" There's this GREAT line where the father tells this boy that if he doesn't have his daughter home safe and sound at the end of the date, "I got a .45 and a shovel, I doubt anyone would miss you."
Freakin' kills me!
Coors Light? naw just joking ;-)
I had the same problem, but just decided to go with the flow. I started working graveyard and sleeping during the day. I was able to work within family constraints and felt much better.
Don't know if that's an option for you, though. I tried Tylenol PM and other OTC sleep aids but they gave me restless leg syndrome for some reason which made matter a million times worse.
Hope you're able to find some relief.

Well I believe you - I was just making light of my post (sm)
many people have seen these things, including what my friend and I saw.
I like the light powder snow...sm
cause it's easier to shovel than that heavy wet snow....Do you shovel or does someone else do it for you?  Cat
Thanks for promising the light at the end of the tunnel.
You know, I started hot flashes in my 30s and thought I was going through the change. Not kidding I am now over 45 by 1 year and still going through this! Ugggg. Maybe Karma will pay me back for all these years. All this girl wants to do is have fun... and looking forward to it, someday!
That puts a different light on things.
I'm glad you talked to him. It is surprising how honest teenagers will be sometimes when you just talk to them as equals and not immediately come down on them. Kids need to know that their parents trust them, unless of course there is a good, clear reason not to.
I am curious though. Did you say anything about him helping another kid do this? I'm sure he knows from last time around that peer pressure and acceptance are powerful. By not helping this other kid with things like this - he could be helping this other kid overcome the problem too.
What about knowing that it was in your house, etc? Personally, I would still be upset about that and want to make it clear that it should not happen again.
"Carol Anne -- DON'T go towards the light!" LOL. nm

Too bad that all of those with cancer are just too stupid to see the light...
smoke a little pot and - presto - you're cured! I imagine with all of the hippies coming down with cancer these days that, if this actually worked, we would all know by now, but I might just say that to make my not-a-pothead-self feel better about the cancer I will someday not be able to cure because I don't smoke weed, right?
Oh geez folks, light up...
it was funny!
Guiding Light since it was a 15 minute show
 I'm old.
White Shoulders is a very light floral,
a very feminine scent. Not heavy at all. Beautiful smells wonderful, but I think it is heavy. I wear Amazing Grace & LOVE IT.
If the color is very light, paint ceiling with it, too.
Usually enough light reflects up so it appears the ceiling is white, anyway. Only with dark colors will it seem cave-like. I've done it with a celery color and it was bright and cheery.
If you have lots of trim and paint it a crisp white, then I'd paint the ceiling white too. That would look sharp.
energy star light bulbs
Just remember if you drop and break one of the new energy efficent light bulbs they have mercury in them. you can't just suck up the mess with your Dirt Devil(: On the back package there is a list of how to clean up mercury spills or you can call the EPA in your area. Leave it to our govt to create a light bulb where you need a govt run agency to help you clean it up!
Maybe someone could shed some light on this marriage thing. sm
Even though I've been married for almost 10 years. When does your husband lose respect for you? If he does. When exactly does that happen and can you get it back? I swear, if I didn't have God in my life I so would not be sitting here married. He supposedly has God in his life, too, but sure doesn't act like it. Neither do I sometimes, but I have so much more respect for him than he does me. I'll talk and he'll roll his eyes and move his hands in a rolling motion for me to "hurry up" with my story. He never listens. So tonight in the middle of me telling him something I just turned around and stopped talking. He asked me why I did that and I told him what he did (and he didn't even realize it) because he got so mad and defensive and started yelling at me (in front of the kids) to "never, ever tell him another thing again." How childish is that? I wish I didn't have to talk to him again at this point.
I'm sure tomorrow I'll be better, but when we dated he never did this. I wouldn't have married him. Can I be perfectly honest with you ladies? In the bedroom I am his slave (haha). I hate it. I honestly think that is where I went wrong. Now I avoid it like the plague as much as I can (go to bed 2 hours after he does), but I honestly think it's because of all those years of doing whatever he tells me to do.
Do you ever get that back? The respect? I feel like we are so far gone sometimes. Divorce isn't an option right now with a family. I just want him to respect me.
Tell me how I should act to him, towards him, with him, what do I say? I honestly don't know. He treats me like this because obviously I let him. I just HATE his yelling. My voice is SO much softer than his and he is just OBNOXIOUS. I avoid confrontation for fear of his dam* VOICE!
Guys tend to pack light, and
probably would be embarrassed by something you were calling a hope chest. Nothing wrong with having a bin with practical essentials for them to take with them, but if it goes beyond what they can see they'll need immediately when they venture out on their own, they might leave it behind. And if it is girly or can't take a beating or isn't flexible about going from DW to MW to oven, it's not going to get used IMO.
memories, light the corners of my mind.

Anyone know of a trick to get dark nail polish off a light rug? Help!

light slippers. can't *feel* the pedal with shoes. nm

Bring a light, easy-to carry stool.
You will be surprised how long the walk is, and often the grass is damp, but you'll want to sit on it. I walk my dogs up to 3 miles, but it still seemed like a long walk on a warm day.
You'll want a wide-brimmed straw hat for the sun, too. Sunglasses of course and great, cushiony shoes you could stand in for hours. Most kids would not enjoy tagging along.
I enjoy watching golf on TV very much. It's the only sport DH and I both watch.
I'm in San Francisco - 63 degrees, sunny, light wind. nm
