In Reply to: When an invite says RSVP - sm.
on an RSVP to let them know that they can count me in or out. It just seems like one of those common courtesy things...at least call whoever to let them know you got the invite for sure and it wasn't lost in the mail.

Total shock
That's all I have to say. 
I am in total agreement with you.
I have been working today and just thinking about not ever having to do any business with anyone who talks like the ones I have done today. I laughed the other day when 1 on here asked when did she go from Transcriptionist to interpreter. You may not know this, but years ago we got a difficulty factor, just for dictators like we have to do day after day now, unbelievable, isn't it? None of those dictators could even approach what we hear now. It is irritating. Some days I have taken off a little early when I know I am having 1 after the other, can make up that time another day- just too irritating and getting on my nerves to continue.
I am a total believer and do believe that
kids see things before they are old enough to think they are not supposed to. I still will smell my dad's aftershave every so often. I just think of it as he is coming around to see how I am doing. (My BF thinks I am crazy by the way.)
total witch
you are a stalker and i am reporting you
Thanks. I am total IC and work for one company..sm
and I have worked for them for 3 years. I do have a FED ID #, as my employer requested that I have one when I first started. Hence, I also have a business name, but I file under my SS# and my personal name, not my business. I thought maybe that would make a difference. I still have the letter, as I keep all of that stuff *just in case.* I know that being an IC, we are *suppose* to file quarterly and I did read somewhere that there may be fines involved if you don't, so I did not think too much about it when it happened. I file in April and everything is in their officed prior to the 15th, so that could not be a reason why the fine, either. Needless to say, I am confused. Maybe I will seek out an accountant this year and leave all that stuff in their hands. It is getting to be a drag and too time consuming for me anyway. just trying to save a buck, even though I know it is deductible. thanks for answering me. I appreciate it.
My stepmother and father (a total man's man)
just had their bathroom remodeled and had a big sunken tub put in just so he could take baths. He is 64 and in very good health, but finally realized how good a tub soak feels. My step-mom tends to light candles for him and add bubbles and he loves everybit of it. BTW, she often joins him as well. they also have weekly at home massages by a masseuse. Men need to slow down a little sometimes and enjoy the gentler things in life.
This Southern Gal is in total agreement with you! Nothing else need be said.

This will be total and much needed catharsis....
I am almost 54 years old and the permeating thought in my brain is that I am "a monstrosity," something my mother called my sister and I because we were tall. My father is still alive at 86 and says about some "pretty little thing." THAT drives me INSANE because I am not. He asks when I am going to play piano for him, and I laugh, but I think, "Never, because you have always criticized me." Still does. God help us all. That's the thing that has totally messed up my brain. I am a "monstrosity" and will never be a "pretty little thing." There. Now I have said it on the internet.
But, FYI, I am not a tall humongous woman, I am just tall and not a "pretty little thing." There, I typed it and that's almost like saying it out loud.
This thread ROX!
My husbsand is a total embarrasement
He thinks boxer shorts are shorts to wear at home when company comes over.
I bought him a nice denim lined shirt/jacket that he took to our seamstress and had 2" round buttons to replace the "normal" looking buttons. I swear, all he needs now is a Tonka Truck to complete the look of a properly dressed 2 year old.
HELP!!!! I think things need to start vanishing when I do laundry!
Those total sons of you-know-whats.
My situation was not QUITE the same.... It turned out I was the other woman; the guy I was dating and thought I was exclusive with turned out to have a fiance he didn't bother to tell me about. Looking back, there were a few hinky things I should have noticed, but they weren't the usual things, so I was thrown off my guard.
I do have a very good male friend whom I call my adopted big brother. (He's married, has been for decades, and his wife is aware that we are friends/business associates.) I asked him flat-out why men cheat, and he said (a) because they can, and (b) the thrill of the chase, or some bullhockey like that, that we testosterone-deficient females can't seem to understand, I guess. He also bluntly told me that I probably was not the only one, i.e. the only "other woman." I would not be surprised if that were true, but I never actually found out, since the SOB (and I do NOT mean 'short of breath') married the fiance and left town.
My best friend put it rather succinctly, when we were discussing another topic:
Men don't change, and women just learn to be abused gracefully. (Because this too is a form of abuse.)
Smaller total amount of more feedings?
Have you tried feeding him more than 2-3 times a day and just putting a smaller overall amount in the dish? He might think he's actually getting more.
I am white but my hair is a total 'fro!
Always has been and I can relate to your distress! I would use any conditioner but only lightly rinse it out after shampoo. I also use a wet my hair with a spray bottle of water and use a little bit of conditioner straight on my hair before combing it out...and I always use a pick--just like you would if you got a perm or had an afro. Seriously! The bigger and wider the teeth, the easier it is. Or, if you absolutely hate the idea of a pick, use a vent brush. The trick is to not comb through or brush out dry curly hair because it will only frizz and boof, know what I'm sayin? If a hairdryer is necessary, like for wintertime, get a diffuser so no direct blast of air hits the hair because it will frizz out.
During my school years, a braid or ponytail was my best friend. I wish I could do it now but all I can manage are Pippi-Longstocking braids and they look kinda gay on a 35-year-old chick.
you need to buy the brush to put it on, total price for the first time is $28
you can apply it in two different ways, one way in which you let your moisturizer dry and the put it on and another is use a bit of moisturizer to get that "dewy" look. Also you should always start off with less (at least with our brand) because it is layerable for a fuller-coverage. Also there are 6 different shades to choose from so you should be able to find a perfect match.
I saw it. A total hoot. My teenagers loved it
and so did I. 
I was a total cougar til my prey caught ME, lol!
My boyfriend is YEARS younger than I am. Started as a one nighter that turned into a 4-day sleepover...I thought he was totally hot but also totally dumb as a pet rock.
Fast forward 2 years...He's sitting on my couch watching the news, and we've been living together 1-1/2 years. He's still totally hot, but not at all dumb as I had initially suspected and, in fact, handles our finances, etc.
Yeah...being a cougar totally rocked, but it turned out even sweeter than I expected when my prey caught ME!!!
Takes a total of about 10 seconds to click
on every site. I sincerely hope anyone that visits this site would want to help all of them.
Heck yes!

What the heck is it????

Been there - heck, there now!...
Same thing at my house - if i'm the least little sick, husband asks if I need to go to the hospital. If I say I don't, then by golly I should be well enough to keep working, cleaning, taking care of him and the kids, etc. I feel your pain! :(
Heck, ask him. Maybe you can get some $ from

How the heck
Call me dumb but I have to ask before I try this. You put the dandruff shampoo on your face? and is this a 3-step process, rinsing between, or you put it all on together? How often do you do this once a week, a month?
What the heck?
Physical ramifications? Which ones are those? You all start on the biggest bunch of getting shrinks for this, ramifications for a piece of skin cut off as a child, no wonder kids now days are a bunch of wimps. The parents are making them like that. No man or boy that I have ever known has had to go into therapy because of a circumcision. Bunch of crock.
Dave Ramsy, The Total Money Makeover....
His message, "Live like no on else so later on you can live like no one else." Budget is not a bad word and saying no to the kids is not wrong and does not make you a bad parent.
I am in total agreement. 13 years old and wanting to date - no way!!..
One of the problems is, as a previous poster write, is DRAMA. Some girls live for the DRAMA (i come from a family of six girls). These kids (but not all) want to and in some ways are forced to grow up too danged fast and it can lead to life-long problems if they do not have a strong mom/dad or just an extended strong family support system. The media has played and contuinues to play a role in the evolution of our teenagers as well (MTV, etc). That is why it is important to keep these kids busy and involved in activities because it is helpful,. JMO..
No, what they heck are they thinking?

What the heck does your post have anything at all
to do with my husband's health??? Obviously you've posted in the wrong area!!
Romey! How the heck are ya?!
Ham was in the cam all day today...it's about 45 degrees out and she has been out there all day is turning BRIGHT pink! I'm actually worried she's going to burn, but she insists on lying out there and soaking in the rays. Can't say I blame her one bit. If I could, I'd be moving this 'puter thing outside and doing my work out there today! It was 10 degrees out there this morning and overnight and we have had nothing but snow and ice for ages it seems...such a welcome sight that sunshine is!
Well, after a week in the Mirra chair, I sat in this Aeron and wow--what a difference. I actually like it better than the Mirra! The seat is bigger, and with a caboose as big as mine, that makes a huge difference. This is a well-used demo model though and it kinda tips to the left, but I think if I am gonna spring the bucks, I'm gonna do it on this style. My husband now has the Mirra chair for a week and as soon as he sat in that one he said, "Oh yuck...can I have that other one back now?"
I haven't talked to the rep guy yet..just got his voicemail, but when he shows up next week to take these chairs back I will most definitely ask that question for you, as I'd like to know the answer too!
Glad your friend enjoyed seeing piggy. Just WAIT until mud season (which hopefully is only a few more weeks away)...she will be out there all the time and in her absolute glory! Her favorite game is to tip over the water trough and make more mud...that's when you see me, all wild haired and disheveled, running out there to turn it upright and refill it with H20. It usually goes badly because she dumps it as it's filling and I can't do squatola about it. I may be big, but she's waaaay bigger and I think if we were to get into a fight, well, she'd win hooves down.
Heck yeah!
My daughter is a few months younger than Celine's son. She has her hair buzzed by her request. (I use the 3/4 inch buzzer guide.) She is tops of her class, very respectful, and loves to help out her teacher in class. She is well behaved, but she does pick on her little sisters sometimes like any kid. She's a really good kid. When we go to the nursing home to visit my husband (he's a nurse), the residents typically assume she's a boy because of her hair, which annoys her. Otherwise she is as girly as can be, much girlier than her mom with long hair!
I figure it's just hair--who cares as long as the child can handle the hair issues? Eventually there will be much bigger battles to be fought than the length of hair.
Go Celine!
HECK NO!! I can eat what i want, drink what i want
it's time to eat all the cheesburgers and milkshakes I want!!! I'm looking forward to old age :)
Can I guess, heck yes, I saw her
Yes, it is a her, not the him that is still waiting but she could not stop that horrible slobbering, crying crap. I appreciate the fact she can sing but do we now have to put up with all that stuff that goes along with it. I would rather have a low key as good a singer without all that drama. Oh, well, the judges' choice.
I bet you thought what the heck! ...nm

You have one heck of a memory...sm
I can't even remember what my screen name was! I do remember the story about mysterious rocks in the yard, though.  Some of those stories were hysterical. Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. Remember how weird things turned during the guess-the-item/person contests?
heck yeah!
I'm single, 44 and have 2 grandkids (my girls are 21, 24 and 26) - one more grandchild on the way! And I start training tomorrow nite to become a foster parent ... I told my kids it's either a puppy or a baby, so we settled on foster parenting lol... I'm glad I had my kids early, it gave me a chance to grow up with them if you would and they couldn't pull any shenanigans... made it a lot easier for me to relate to what they were going thru and know what they were up to haha... my mom was clueless due to her being 36 years older than me... it was really rough raising 3 girls by myself - especially the 2 oldest that were so close in age - it was the hormone house from hell, but I would do it all over again if i could in a heartbeat! 
The Illusionist - total chick flick! Great movie!

Ooooooo! That's an awesome theory! I'm a total Lost freak too. SM
I can't believe I missed this thread!
What the heck does CRCT stand for?
I live in Virginia and they take SOLs here. My daughter will have to take it for the first time this year, but I've heard that if they don't pass the SOL test then they don't move on to the next grade!! I really hope this isn't true, it's a LOT of pressure.
Heck no sounds like you can't tell the difference.

Ah heck, she just made you a cake
and didn’t want to tell you any different.
new grads--how in the heck to they make any
I went to a brick and mortar college for my year long MT educational course which included a 225 hour preceptorship at a local clinic. I obtained a job at a local hospital and was STILL looking up stuff and asking for help from the gals I worked with. I think it's incredibly nieve for anyone to think they can take a correspondence course and jump right in to making any money at this. Things like peau d’ orange and "full stop", they don't teach you that in school, you need hands on for a while.
Mine sure as heck did - he became a 'she'.
Heck no! 40 is a great age- you know enough not to mess around but you don't have Alzheimer's
How the heck do some of these people have money for all the surgeries? NM

And what the heck is "mechanically separated chicken"?? nm

Heck no! Finally had to get a fake one due to hub's allergies, but it is a beauty once it's up

To Heck With Ole Santa Clause - Loretta Lynn
Ay-Ay-Ay it's Christmas and I don't know what to do -- Ay-ay-ay It's Christmas and I don't have a gift for you. My kids especially love it! They sing it to me and in response I sing to them "I'm Getting Nothing for Christmas" -- except changed to "You're Getting Nothing for Christmas."
If anything irks the heck out of me, it is when "single mother" is mentioned as to
why someone would be more entitled to get something. What it means to me is she should wait for kids until maybe she can afford them and not before. Being single does not entitle. Dang, I know welfare folks who feel about the same entitlement and they use the welfare system and have gotten plenty, section 8, food stamps and just because something free, they would wait hours in line to get a freebie. I know 1 lady, previously married, 2 kids, got welfare, food stamps and yet living with a guy who had a city job making good money. Sorry but I feel different about food stamps because I have seen so much abuse go on and definitely hate the fact when someone brings up "single" mother meaning they should get more just because they did not think ahead about feeding extra mouths.
Adam and Eve, to tell them to stay the heck away from the forbidden tree!!! sm
Tell me we wouldn't be in better shape just hanging in the Garden of Eden??? (When my daughter was little, she used to wish she had a time machine so she could go back).
Make your own income, hire a plumber. Total unnecessary. Men are useless in the family plan.

Heck yeah I'd love a gift certificate to Tractor Supply!
I found a really neat gift there for a horse lover thats only $50. It's a (fake) bush that is cut like a horse and has Christmas lights on it. Very cool (at least I thought so!)
Maybe a personalized saddle pad? You could get someone to embroider his name (or his horses name) on it.
Heck no!! In fact just bought a GMC Yukon Denali to haul the family around in for trips.

This is total BS ! Every policy policy must have a beneficiary!..nm
