Busted bubbles.
Oh, ok. I guess the Federal Government is wrong. I guess they should check with you. I guess the State Governments should also check with you.
Mom + Kid (no dad in the picture) = single mom.
Does not matter whether divorced or widowed. When the dad ends up AWOL it is a single mother.
I don't care what you think. I don't care about your opinions. By the looks of it, there are other people who feel the same way. People fear what they do not understand. You obviously have that.
Karma has an interesting way of working. You are still living and breathing. Anything can happen. People who are so nasty and vocal about things, they tend to end up going through the things they are so judmental about.
By the way, when you get old and you end up in a nursing home...and you don't have the money to pay for it yourself, that is where the state picks up. Saying what you did, then when this happens to you and the state has to pay for it, you will become one of those people that you have been talking so badly about--simply because you didn't plan appropriately for your "golden years" and will be a burden to the state.
There ya go. No one is immune.
Yep, smack dab in the middle.
Near some joint called Bangor.
Any father figure who can lay the smack down?
You're the mother, it's your nature to protect, but somebody needs to protect you in this situation as well. I have no advice at all...I've never been through something like that, and can't even begin to imagine what it's like to be in your shoes.
She really needs an intervention or something...too bad she has frigged up her life so bad that not even the military would take her. That's the only think I can think of that would strip a person down to their core and rebuild them up bit by bit all new like without costing a small fortune that the private "reform" places do. She is 19 though, a legal adult. Maybe a one-way bus ticket, some cash, a peck on the cheek, a "you are the weakest link--goodbye."
I'm probably addicted to working out!
I go to the gym about 5 days a week, and the days I don't go I run on my treadmill at home, and I always feels great and I have so much energy. It even helps my production with work! I'm a lot more focused and concentrated on my work, especially after a good work out!
I'm addicted to working too!
I've been doing this a long time, and it's almost like therapy for me to type. I do have my own accounts and I do find time to take vacations. My kids are school-aged and I enjoy taking them places and watching them play sports. I love transcribing. It is where I can sit and just type and think and I feel it is very soothing in my case. I have not transcribed while traveling yet, but then I travel for vacation only and do not travel too far. Sometimes smelling the roses is maybe taking just a few minutes each day for yourself.
Same here. I love my job and am probably addicted to it too - SM
I have only been transcribing for about 6 years, since I was 20, and I'm now 26. My husband works out of the house at a psychiatric hospital as a nurse, so I pretty much work when he does and take time off when he is off, but I still will work for at least a few hours on the days that he is off. When we travel, I just take my laptop with me so I can work (He just bought me a brand new laptop!) A lot of days, I will work for about 12 hours, but it doesn't even feel like I have been working that long because I love it so much. I type almost all ER reports, so it's really easy money and I love it!
Sure it's easy to get addicted
to food when you eat junk food, candy, cakes, McDonalds, ice cream, etc. I've never seen an obese person who eats healthy. If you are obese, you too are taking advantage of the healthcare system. What does it matter to you about my health...I don't worry or ridicule obese people. Comes down to it's none of your business. I do not smoke on the streets, in front of children, or people who have health problems. When I see an obese person stuff their face with crap and they weight 300 pounds, I find that disgusting. They too are hurting themselves. All addictions are the same no matter what even though you are too opinionated to see that!!
addicted to chaos
Even if your husband is not addicted to chaos, he can still get just as bored as you. I think it would be easier and more fun to spend money to convert him to being more exciting than paying a counselor to calm you down!
My neighbor is addicted to QVC. The UPS truck
every single day. Her apartment is just as small as mine, and she doesn't make that much more money than I do. I've looked at QVC, and the stuff on it is nice, but expensive! I don't know where she's putting it all. Sometimes she over-buys, and ends up giving some really nice things to me because she has no room. Of course I appreciate the gifts, but I do worry about her sometimes. She's told me her credit card debt is pretty high, too. (She should know better - she works for a bank!)
My mom was so addicted the QVC logo was burned into her TV screen
Made watching movies hard. :-)
Ladies, am totally addicted to home shopping
and being at home just makes it easier for me to do this. I buy from 2 different places, HSN, their credit card there and then QVC, like their clothes better I think. I have ordered 2 new outfits today, justifying by saying will use on my vacations this year. Also easy to watch because do not have to listen to anyone talking, can just watch and can order really fast in between working. I am hooked. Anyone else?
She should BLOW IT OFF sm
However, men who are out of work have some strange ideas and thoughts. They seem to get miserly on one hand and spend thrifts on the other. I am not sure that most men *get* the whole money thing away.
I had a friend whose DH was out of work. They had usually had a gas station automatic car wash about every 2 weeks. In the interest of money, she gave this up, but he stepped up his washing to weekly. What is the big deal? It was $5 a pop. She was ever worried about every dime and he was saying what is $5. He would decide that $20 was okay to go spend having beer with his band members (he always played with a rock band after work), but would get after her for buying the kids $1 hamburgers at the Golden Arches. It became petty arguments over every minute money issue.
I think that men and women view money very differently and Suzie Ormand agrees. She says that women can't deal with anything they don't have a relationship with, and most of have a dysfunctional relationship with money. Umm this is a man who does too.
I keep thinking SOME PEOPLE, but I have had a husband out of work who felt that while being out of work with no unemployment that it was the perfect time to start shopping for the house and bought an area rug and lamps for the living room he never used, and that expense didn't change a thing.
blow by blow!
that's rich.
You might think that just because you don't give the details they shouldn't be inferred, but as soon as the words leave your mouth they can have all kinds of effects. Me personally? Like I said above, when someone says "conceived," they mean, among other things, "That's the moment we were doing the do." Exactly what I don't want: a hole drilled in my head & the image of some faceless couple's flesh slapping together, complete with sound effects, inserted into my brain like something out of Brave New World.
I don't plan this. It's like "don't think about pink elephants."
I'm telling you, it's Too Much Information. Everyone who knows how old your kids are can do the math without having to visit the scene of the crime.
What a blow. I have filed BK before, but sm
I never had any money in the bank they could freeze. BK puts a stop to just about everything people are trying to get from you. Mortgages, rentals, all of that. It stops. Call your bank and keep asking if they have the case number, or make your attorney do it. The minute they get the BK case number, they should unfreeze your funds. It doesn't have to take a week, if someone is on top of it. If your attorney has a case number now, call then bank and give it to them.
Farmer blow...
need I saw more!
what is farmer blow? nm

Blow dryer
My daughter had lice once and with really thick hair it took me a long-time to get rid of it, until a doctor gave me a RX that we had to let set for 1 hour, then take the blow dryer outside and dry hair for an hour or longer. the heat from the blow dryer and the medicine finally killed them all within 2 days.
Use a blow dryer
I put the hair dryer on cool and "dust" the artificial flower arrangements with it. Takes just a few seconds and if you do it every week or so, you never have to wash them.
Otherwise, I would dip them in a sink of Woolite or similar cold water wash. Some people put them in a sack filled with salt and shake it, because the salt is abrasive enough to get rid of the dirt but not hurt the arrangement.
i have already addressed this. they blow those comments off
this was a TEACHER.
Blow them off, change your *name*, and carry on!
;)
Bummer the pictures don't blow up more.
I'd love to see all the little details on them...must be just amazing to look at. I sure do love sparkly things!
I think I've seen replicas for sale, like on QVC or even E-Bay if you ever wanted to start collecting. Have no clue how much even fake stuff would go for. Even if they're just covered in crystals, I'll bet they're still expensive. I've always wanted to collect those silly little crystal animals and things you see in Hallmark stores. Oh the way they catch those lights! I visited a Swarovsky crystal place in some mall once and I was just mesmorized....oh the sparklies!
Ok, probably animal lovers might blow a gasket but
I have 3 cats. When I got the younger cats they were swimming in fleas. I would say they were maybe 6-8 months old. I visited the vet, got the medicine they have as in your posts and it just was not working. The cats were scratching themselves to death. While at the vet place 1 of the ladies told me if I got fleas in my carpet I could use Borax washing powder. A light went off in my head. I thought if I can use on the carpet, why not the cats? I was very careful about protecting their eyes but tried it and my golly, the fleas died almost instantly and they have not been bothered since then. They are now over 2 years old, brothers from the same litter. This was the most effective thing I had ever tried including all the flea remedies they have at the vets and pet stores.
Strike up the band, blow up the balloons!
Ready to celebrate. I wrote here some time ago about a problem with a CPA cousin. My father died and he put in writing and also told the people where he worked any money coming from there should come to me. When I got the money it had to be made out to estate of .......My cousin who supposedly was taking care of my father's last bill, etc. told me I could not cash the checks (duh) and to send to him for putting in estate money. I asked him to pay off father's last owed bill out of the money (he never did this 3 years ago now) and did not probate my father's will (said not enough there left after most all spent). I wrote a letter to cousin finally last year and said I wanted this back, next of kin, basically belonged to me. Ignored, another letter, ignored and finally asked on here who to contact for the head of CPAs and a person told me. Thanks to you, contacted the officials and after giving my cousin a deadline and telling him I had contacted the people over him, he finally sent me a check on the very last day of the deadline I gave him!! Now I wonder with him doing family like this, who else has he jipped?
And don't throw her a ball, because if she misses and it hits her guns, they may blow!
LOL
