She is a real keeper!
 If she looked at you with those big brown bulging eyes you would really laugh. Sometimes when I am afraid and feel like I might have a panic attack coming on about my mom, or when work is so terrible like now, etc. I think of her and just animals in general and I actually feel myself calm down. Thank you so much for your very nice comment. I don't want to fight with anyone. Thanks for recognizing that.
What an angel! A keeper for sure! nm

No attack on a zoo keeper
She didn't attack the keeper a year ago - she chewed on his arm when he was feeding her, in other words, being a tiger. She probably thought the arm was part of the food he was giving her. They changed their feeding technique after that incident.
Wow! You're a keeper! :) In what media are you

Awww!!
 I absolutely adore them. I have 2. I have a red dapple and a black and tan and they are the best!! They are so lovable...but be careful, cuz they'll steal your heart away! I could not recommend a better breed of dog, but be sure to get one from a reputable breeder as the Dachshund tends to have a bad back. My Molly (red dapple) had a disk rupture and she became paralyzed February 28th, had surgery 5 days later and we were told she would not walk again. However, Dachshunds are a very strong personality and she is walking and running all over the place now! She still goes to water therapy where she walks on an underwater treadmill 2 times a month. They become just like your children! Mine sit near me while I work and they bark when someone comes to the door. They do have a big bark like a big ole hound dog, but they are so cute and lovable. They love to go on neighborhood walks. They also are destructive when puppies but I think if you give them lots of love and attention, you'll get through it okay! Both of mine were easy, easy to housebreak when I took them out every 2-3 hours (like a newborn) for peepee breaks, and then gave them lots of praise. They really are a bundle of energy and love and I can't say enough about them!! I highly recommend the breed.
awww...
Cats and trees can be a lethal mix for sure!
Sorry about your kitty. I had one who lived to be 20. It was like after she met that milestone, she just went to sleep...
AWWW
They are so cute together! My dog Misty liked it too. My daughter loves cats and was sitting behind me and since she is into martial arts she laughed and said that the honey-colored cat is loving the other one, but is proud that he has him in a semi choke hold because when they both wake up he has the edge! Or, maybe he wants to make sure the white cat doesn't beat him to the food dish.
Awww..sm
Isn't it amazing how many colors appear in 1 litter?
awww
That is just the sweetest thing for you suggest that. Thank you so much! I couldn't take your money though! I am getting over the mad thing and easing into the funny. I should make her go to school like she is so she will never do it again. She said that she wanted to cut her hair like her friend Laci because she loved her..... *sigh*... I will probably just cut the long back off and then just keep styling it for now. My mom always use to cut my hair like a little boy and I hated it. Now my daughter is cutting her own hair like a boy... and with SAFETY SCISSORS none the less. I cant even cut paper with these things!!!!
Awww, give yourself a hug from me.
I cannot imagine what that pain must be like, but my heart goes out to you.
AWWW that's sweet!!!

Awww. Thanks for the picture...nm
awww...thanks...Our next one I think we will get a brindle..
nm
awww that's so unfortunate...I feel for you...
However, there is an old old saying, I'm sure you've heard it...
a son is a son 'til he takes a wife
a daughter is a daughter the rest of her life....
(I know it's not the case all the time, but what I have seen this SEEMS to be the case). GOD BLESS YOU and may you find peace!!! 
Awww...what a good nurse you are! Will say

Awww, what a cute kitty sm
so adorable. I love cats but my two youngest boys are deathly allergic. We did have one when they were very small and after she died, that was it. It was right after that their coughing stopped and sinuses cleared. Anyway, if it were my kitty, I would forego the tail. Still lots of kitty there to love. And the pain and bleeding would be gone.
Awww shucks Ma, didn't know that
ya'll 'sept my apology.
Awww...Santa's Helper!
He is so cute! I love dogs!
Awww I love 'zons! sm
I am down to budgies, but I did have an Indian ringneck parakeet for a long time, 2 in fact. I finally decided that she didn't have the life here that she needed and deserved, so I gave her to someone who has always been crazy about her. She is much happier and well loved. IRNs are not as teachable as an Amazon. They tend to be more calm and live in harmony with furkids. Plus, they are so large that no right-minded cat or dog would dare to challenge them. I know of a couple of 'zons who have put holes in cat's and dog's ears just for living.
You have to know that she is very attached to Birdie. I have a feeling, however, if someone was hurting you she'd do the same thing to them that she did to your jacket.
I am glad you spoil her, she is a lucky bird. So many people go into having a larger parrot and don't understand their habits and needs. This is why so many birds are abused and far too many of them can't recover from it. I'd be willing to bet she is beautifully fully feathered and a deep lime green. If her whole head is yellow, she is a double yellow head. If that is the case, they are known to be the best tempered of all the Amazons (and the most expensive in many places). Thanks for being a good birdie mom, we need more like you!
Riight, it's getting really creepy' Awww.....nm

awww...hang in there Kendra...
he will be home in no time and you can have all the sex you want!!!
Awww, makes me want to shote WAHOO too!!
===
awww what a nice fluffy tail too!
I think he'll make a lovely Stubby. Or you could make his middle name Stubby lol
Awww...scoop it up with a glass and a piece of paper and place

Hey - Congrats!
First of all, congrats! (sm)
Yes, the tiredness can be very overwhelming. I would take this as a very good sign. I couldn't believe how tired I was the first trimester in both my pregnancies. Could fall asleep sitting up! Your body is doing a tremendous amount of work making that little baby. You'll feel better in the second trimester, and then tired again the last trimester. Though for me, I didn't feel like I was as tired in the 3rd as I was in the first, but everyone is different. Best wishes to you and your growing family!
Congrats to you and her.....
Nursing school is a lot of hard work!! Lots of nurses in my family (I am also a medical assistant). Just a little secret...when I cannot do my work, the nurses in my family help with my transcription. ;)
Anyway...congrats to her, congrats to you for being such a great mentor and for being such a great "helper" when she needed it! :)
Congrats!
I know the Atkins diet has worked for a lot of people. I know one in particular who has actually done it several times, only to gain the weight back and more, but I think the key is to probably transition into a Zone-type of diet after you are done with Atkins to keep your results. Best of luck to you!
Congrats!!!!
Congrats to the SOX, they got
the job done. Still wish it would have been the Indians though :-)
Congrats!

Congrats!!
Congrats to you :-) sm
I love my Rays. Been going to games (live 2 hours away) and watching them for 6 years now. I'm just so thrilled we got this far. It was such a treat.
But what really bothered me were statements from the media like, 'the series no one is watching, but no one will forget.' Pegging this series as 'not a sexy World Series.'
It's ironic that now that there is drug testing (so no steroids) that the 2 teams who made it, one of which hasn't won since 1980 and the other who has been in the cellar since it's inception in 1997, are deemed dull and a boring series...
I'm not sure about the Phillies, but the Rays were one of the only teams who had no players on the 'steroid list' last year.
I'm insulted as an avid baseball fan and as a Rays fan that the sports media continually poo-poo'ed this series. So... the only way a WS is good is if we watch pumped up steroid playera and/or players who make an obscene amount of money (one NY Yankee player equals the entire roster of the Rays).
I watch my Rays every day they're on TV or when I'm able to get to the games in person (love the Trop and the catwalks LOL), and I've watched every playoff and WS for as long as I can remember, no matter who was in it. I just pick a team and have fun.
I'm happy for the Phillies. It was a good, clean series and their manager has a lot of class. I'm sad we didn't win. Next year seems so far away, but I really had a great ride this year.
Again, congrats to you!!
Wow - Congrats!
That's awesome you lost all that weight!
Thank you both and congrats on the
weight loss. Several years ago I lost 27 pounds and felt like a new person. I have gained it back and more and need to get serious about weight loss for my health. I have new clothes with the tags still on that I want to wear. Thanks again to you both. Wish me luck!
Hey, congrats! sm
Sober for 20 years, can you start a gab fest on how to do that successfully? You are the best! Just leave the rest! I can't swim either and I don't give a rat's pittouty!
Love this thread. What you don't know about me is I am claustrophobic, hate to fly and hate elevators and closed places. It prevents me from living my life as it should be!
Congrats.....
on being smoke free for 18 days! My boyfriend started the patch 2 weeks ago today. I think in that 2 weeks, he has had a total of 2 cigarettes (just taking a puff or 2 here and there, not a whole one at once). I started the patch 1 week ago and have had a total of 3 cigarettes(same thing, puff or 2 here and there, not a whole one at once). I only had a craving once that was really bad. Other than that, it's more the habit, type a long report and go smoke, eat and go smoke. lol I had him buy me an ab roller last night at Walmart and am gonna use that to hopefully help break the habit and maybe tone up my gut. LOL
By the way, cigarettes went up again here. My brother had to stop and pick up a pack for his MIL. Cost him $6.77!!!!! Absolutely ridiculous.
Congrats!!
You will love it!! I have leased two and NEVER had any problems with either one. Consumer Reports loves the car and actually compares it to the BMW.
ENJOY!!!
Congrats! (sm)
Congratulations on getting it done and presumably mailed by 04/15/2009. Next year, keep in mind that you can file an extension until 10/15 if you need to. Of course, filing that extension would probably just mean that you would be going through what you went through today, only on 10/14/2010 instead of 04/14/2010....
Anyway, congratulations!
CONGRATS!
OMG, how adorable! How old is your son? My daughter starred in a series of commercials for local health care facilities quite a few years ago. No matter how many times I saw it, I was just SO proud of her. There were no residuals or anything; just a good-sized savings bond and a few stuffed toys (unfortunately, one of which was Barney and my daughter was terrified of Barney at the time, lol!).
You and your son will have a blast and ENJOY IT! My daughter got full hair and makeup and everything, just like a little movie star.
Let us know how it goes and congrats to both of you!!!
Congrats!
Never saw your original post. Sometimes there are hot topics that quickly push other stuff off the board, so don't take it personally.
Congrats!
I'm so glad for you. Needless to say, this is a good thing for the remaining Chevy dealers, but just a horrible thing for the ones getting kicked to the curb. My son works in the body shop of a Pontiac dealer (you can see where that's going) but there is also a Chevy dealership partnered with them. I haven't heard yet whether they're pulling the plug on that one.
I would think it would be almost a survivor's guilt - so relieved it's not you, but so sad for the others.
Congrats... you should be proud
of her and of yourselves for helping her as much as you could. I did the same thing with my DIL, looked at it as an longterm invest in my grandchild's future, the sacrifice of all of you is definitely worth it. I was as proud as any mom when she passed her boards for LPN. My DIL is back in school for her R.N. now, so we continue to help with the babysitting, etc. Wouldn't trade the time with my 2 year-old grandson for anything, even though most days I feel really OLD by the time his daddy picks him up each night. Congrats again to her!
Congrats! That's great! (nm)

Congrats! If you want some paint fun
go to the various paint companies websites (I like Behr) and fool around with their virtual rooms and color combos. They also have good tips for the how-to of it. Enjoy your new digs!
Congrats!! see inside......
You can definitely still have a very healthy baby and pregnancy. It sounds like you are wanting to try to change a few things so start now by eating healthy, walking daily, and you and your baby will be just fine. The cons or risks that come with obesity and pregnancy include......first of all, you can't feel the baby move as early as others may so don't let that scare you. The other issues that i have seen run in hand with some with obesity are high blood pressure and risk for toxemia. that doesn't mean every obese pregnant mother goes through that. i think there are lots of reasons for obesity and i think that plays a major role. Cut out as much sodium as possible, eat healthy, lots of protein, drink lots of water, and try to get some exercise and you should be fine. i would encourage you to go to blueribbonbaby.org and read up on some of those things mainly the Brewer's diet and if you start trying some of those things NOW it will help prevent things in the future if you happened to be at risk later on in pregnancy. oh, don't let some doc tell you that you need a c-section because of your size either cuz that is BS! Good luck to you!
jealous...congrats wish it were me
Keep me posted...I want to know everything.
Congrats on your new additions!
They sound very cute!
Congrats! I am researching them now...sm
Thanks for the info. My 10-year-old Cutie Utie is starting to have problems and I have been researching the hybrids. Because of a very large dog that goes almost everywhere with me, I am focusing on the Ford Escape or Saturn Vue, but only if they are not too big--have only seen them on the computer. Hope your car arrives in under 5 weeks. How exciting!
Congrats to both of you new homeowners
What fun it is to decorate a new home for the holidays (and expensive). Maybe you could talk one of your friends/family into throwing you a housewarming party -- make the theme Christmas decorations.
We're in the process of building, but we're not expected to be in until after the new year. I can hardly wait. It'll be like having 2 Christmases this year. Good luck -- hope all goes well!
Congrats on that appointment! sm
A lot of people are returning to church. I was too "busy" for years and got away from it and feel it at the holidays. My views of the right/wrong religion have changed a great deal over the years. I no longer believe there should be huge "differences" in churches and ? being loyal to just one. I am "searching" as well because my kids have married people from other faiths and I feel they are "pulled" as to where to go, and that should not be. I'm happy you are thinking of returning and faith is so important these days. You have inspired me to get off my butt as well and get back to church (and I am not going to give up until I get back there.) It can be very depressing because it does haunt one on the holidays (at least me anyway). I can't imagine not having faith. Congratulations to you!
