Can wax paper be substituted for parchment paper? nm
Actu7ally A&H Super Scoop is what I use, tho' cat
It doesn't seem to be the texture so much, as I've found even softer ones (the softest being Feline Pine Scoopable), but she wants no part of it. Prefers plastic or linoleum. Have removed all litter and just used:
a) Empty litter box
b) Newspapers or paper towels -
but the problem there is it's only good for one use, then the box has to be completely washed out. Not very practical, sanitary, or good-smelling.
You make them big by the size of the scoop you use. I like to add in more vanilla than
s
Thanks for the "inside scoop"! I'll avoid Sears. nm

glass
You can find them alot of places. Crafts stores carry them, Wal-Mart, and any store that pretty much has a craft section. Check them out.
For me, there is nothing like a glass
or two of merlot after a hard day at work to relax!
Trying to buy stained glass
I am trying to find an hanging stained glass octagon shaped item for my daughter. Anyone bought some before and if so, where from? Thanks.

Painting on glass surfaces
Ok, here is my problem. I bought a beautiful set of China in a magnolia pattern, stunning, for little of nothing. I then was able to get some platters, 4 bowls, salt and pepper and the like from a replacement China company but no where can I find a gravy boat. I have been looking for about 2 months. This is what I had thought of and perhaps someone out there has done this. I have a white gravy boat that I had thought of buying paint to decorate the outside some to make it blend in with my set that I will be using Christmas. Has anyone done any China painting like this or just painting on dishes and what kind of paint would I get. I do not want to have to finish with processing it afterwards, just a 1 stop painting and drying deal. Thanks.
Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?
Water or Coke?
Could not believe this..... Very interesting
WATER
#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
(Likely applies to half the world population.)
#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is mistaken for hunger.
#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%.
#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs
for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of
Washington study.
#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of
water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain
for up to 80% of sufferers.
#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term
memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on
the computer screen or on a printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of
colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast
cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop
bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water
you should drink every day?
COKE
#1. In many states the highway patrol carries
two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from
the highway after a car accident.
#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke
and it will be gone in two days.
#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the
toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour,
then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes
stains from vitreous china.
#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:
Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds
Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour
a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble
away the corrosion.
#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola
to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into
the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the
drippings to mix
with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
#8... To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke
into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run
through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen
grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your
windshield.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.
It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric
acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major
contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the
commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place
cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean
engines of the trucks for about 20 years!
Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?
With those big leaded-glass windows the builders put
in, it's kind of hard to hide when the lights are on inside and you are in the LR. If I'm in my office and DH isn't in the LR either, I just peak out to see who it is. I may have to replace that dumb front door, but the window in the door is the only window in the living room. Stoopid builders.
How do you get stuff off glass stove tops? SM
I have tried the white creamy stuff from Sears, where I purchased stove. That doesn't get everything off. One site suggested a straight razor, but since I type for a living, I am reluctant to use one (except when shaving legs!).
Any tips? Please? Thank 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!!!!
Oh, Miss Perfect, people in glass houses
It sounds to me like her daughter turned out just fine. I'm sure there are a lot of skeletons in your Christian closet so should keep hypocritical mouth shut, I'd say.
I love my electric ceramic/glass cook top, but
you have to clean the darn thing and keep it clean!!! Its not as hard as taking the electric coils out of the old one and cleaning it. You can turn it off for the last 5-10 minutes of your cooking and it will still be hot just as hot and cut electricity that way!!! DO A LOT OF COOKING IN A SLOW COOKER.... you can even bake in a slow cooker. it costs 2 cents an hour!!!! The oven can cost up to $5 depending on what kind you have!!!
My dog just ate a piece of...
Broccoli!!!!! My last dog wouldn't eat that. She likes things like bananas too. Does your dog eat funny stuff?
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..

Split up what you have and stagger the pieces, play with it, add some glass, and/or start
s
Not weird..old Czech glass perfume bottles, some angels, old
s
Then go to her and tell her, say your piece but be nice - sm
about it. She will no doubt get defensive, so unless you want a permanent rift you (unfornately) have to be careful in how you phrase your complaint of her being totally nasty, rude and tactless herself. Just explain to her that her little digs hurt your feelings and you are only trying to help her out as you care for her, etc. Tell her if she continues to make the cutting comments about her perceived inability to help her out now and then that you will just have to stop helping her and limit your time with her as she is making you feel like dirt and killing your self-esteem. Maybe that will get her to knock it off, if it does not, then just cut her out, no one needs that kind of garbage in their life and let her be bitter and alone and nasty to herself.
I just saw a funny piece on (sm)
"Best of Craigslist."
Somebody advertised that they would pay somebody to come and clean their refrigerator and then described the problem, which was one specific spill that was growing new life forms or something. It was hilarious.
okay, just one more piece of advice
Hey Emily Ayn - I've seen your posts on this board so many times its almost like talking to a friend - okay, an invisble friend because I can't see you, but at least you answer me back :-) Anyway...this is the only piece of advice I would offer you, and a couple of my thoughts. (P.S. - I hope you didn't think I was shouting at you, I didn't mean the no, no, no to come off as shouting, it was more of an Oh my gosh, no). Anyway...if I was facing the same situation, this is what I would do.
I would most defintely get the address and name of the people. I would then take that with the ad to the local police and ask if there is anything illegal that has happened at this address and show them the ad. They should then be able to tell you at least that this couple is not wanted by the law or has done anything that you would need to know about. Everything could be very innocent and legite, but that would be the only way to really be sure.
As for their ages, I would come out and say to them (again if this is me) I would say.
"I noticed your ad asked for my picture, and I have never heard of that before and just wondered why you wanted a picture of me". I'm not sure if asking their ages would mean anything because "weirdo's" (if they are weirdos) come in all ages. If they have any sense at all they will understand your concerns, and if they get offended that would send up a signal. Most defintely though the only thing I would do before hand is check it out with the police to make sure they are not wanted for anything.
By your posts I know you are a smart person and if you've dispatched for 911 you've heard a lot come your way.
Just wish you all the best and hope things work out for you. I understand totally about needing to feel safe. If you do this please let us know how it goes.
Take care, be safe, and as they say on X-Files "Trust No-one". (That's a saying my DH lives by).
Boy you are a piece of work- nm
xxx
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
s
Awww congrats! She's a keeper! nm
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!!!
Had mine at 29. It was a piece of cake. (sm)
Had the surgery at 7:30 AM. Home by 12 PM. Doing laundry by 12:30. No pain. No complications whatsoever. 43 now and no menstrual comps.
I would try to find a piece of carpet
somewhere in your house - closet, etc., and have cut out the area and install the other piece - it will stick out like a sore thumb for a while as it is not worn - but eventually will look fine. You might even be able to find a carpet installer to help you with this
I had a tubal/ piece of cake sm
My husband is a big baby. I was working full time at an insurance company. I had my surgery the day after Thanksgiving. I was home by 10 AM feeding the baby (not my husband) in the high chair because my husband had to run to the store for stuff we needed. Not a big deal. Didn't hurt, woke up from anesthesia quickly.
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
painful at first but wedge a piece of cotton
from a cotton ball underneath the corner - sometimes numbing with some topical agent like neosporin plus helps a little. I cut mine too short because walking in tennies aggravate me and this happens. Works pretty well - wedge it under with a tweezer.
..:) Depression glass, cut crystal, candle sticks, figurines. Strings of twinkie lights

Her mother is a piece of trash. So is that biological father.

Try reaching for a stick of gum or a piece of hard candy.
The doctor I work for prescribes Chantix and it has been very successful for many patients.
