boring job. this is such a boring job.
having trouble staying focused lately. maybe the holidays being on my mind or something. just cant stay focused...anyone have trouble with the bordom?
Yes, boring!!
Yes, fitness and health should be promoted. Why not get off our duffs and go out and be physically active ourselves? And they are way, way overpaid - it is disgusting!
Although not as boring as the

I was boring.
I studied, was very active in church youth group, was in flag corp, babysat a couple times a week, traveled to Central America during 2 summers. I was a good kid. My parents were lucky!
Boring and overpayed.

Sports are not boring.
They are meant to promote competition and fitness. I wonder though if we had a disaster that would require "fit" people to help bring others to safety, would we be able to call on the athletes? I wonder if there weren't enough soldiers or police/firemen, etc., could we count on some athletes? A lot of these organizations also help charity. I know this is kind of off the subject, but I love sports, so maybe that's why I feel the way I do. JMO. Thanks for asking. 
What a boring Monday!!! (sm)
My line count is low today even though I am working my butt off to try to bring it up. I come over here for a break and it looks like no one has posted anything new for hours. Doesn't anyone have anything exciting to say (I don't!!! was hoping you did!) LOL
Beautiful but boring
It is really beautiful, but after 10+ years living here raising the kids, I am beginning to crave a little craziness! Tourist season can be pretty awful, but all those tourist $$$ keep my taxes pretty low.
It is truly a land of haves and have nots. In my town, there is one house for sale for $23 million, but you can still get a real fixer-upper for under $150K. Still not cheap, but like they say, location, location, location.
predictable and boring.

We definitely need a car. Long and probably boring.
Our ྙ Buick has been very good to us, but the transmission is going. We've been adding something (don't know the name) every 6 months over the past year, but we don't think it will hold out much longer. Plus, the last ice storm really did a number on our windshield. We had a "stone crack" that was there since the day we bought the car, but the storm put a crack across the whole length of the windshield and back again. We are driving the car that way, but need a new one.
The problem is we can't afford anything over $2000 and most of the cars we have looked at are $4000 and up. Now, hubby tells me if I close out my IRA and pay for the car, he will guarantee to pay me back next year if he gets back to work. The thing I don't like is the word IF. I have been practically sole support now because he hasn't worked much this year (not his fault) and, with the fall in the stock markets, I lost mucho dollars from my IRA, as he did. He still has double what I have left, but he wants me to close out my IRA.
We need a car so he can get to work (over 50 miles one way) once he gets back to work if he decides not to retire, but I'm tired of paying all the bills plus our health insurance (which he promised to pay half and hasn't been able to do - to the tune of $4000 owed) now having to worry about getting another car. Am I wrong to feel this way? I'm starting to feel like he just doesn't want me to have any control or have any savings, that it is a threat to him if I have any money.He's my high school sweetheart from 1965, so it's not like we're yung'uns. He wasn't this way until his surgery 2 years ago. I know I'll never be able to recoup my losses from my IRA and sometimes think I should just do what he says, but I feel it's my $$ that I worked hard to get, although it will never see me through my retirement.
He just paid the IRS and state taxes before the end of the year before they tacked on any more penalties and interest, and made ME feel guilty because I didn't have enough money deducted from MY wages to cover it (we are still trying to recover from his open heart surgery). I am claiming single and really starting to hurt money-wise. It's just too much for me to handle. I'm paying all the cc's that we had to use to survive to pay medical bills and doctors after his surgery.
What would you do in this case? I use the car maybe twice a week when it's here to go for groceries if he doesn't get around to going for them. Should I take him at his word? Should I close out my IRA and get a decent car (which would probably last us the rest of our life)?
I just need another person's opinion before I make my final decision. Thanks.
I thought it was boring last night . . .
The girl with the nasty photos is "vote for the worse" this year.
Who finds sports boring?
*raising my hand*
Not boring, but professional athletes..sm
are definitely overpaid!
If this is so boring - why bother? they need posters over there can't you tell
by this thread?
I guess we are one of those boring families, too...sm
We don't fight during the holidays, but then we really don't talk much either. My mom has Alzheimer and my brother just doesn't say much. I try to carry on a conversation, but it is hard to when you are met with silence.
I find Danny boring.
Can't believe he hasn't been booted yet. I'm a hardcore Adam fan and would like to see him win, although win or lose he will be a huge star. Anyway,thank God for a world where we don't all have the same tastes. You can have your Gokey, and I'll take my Lambert, LOL!
It was kind of boring, I agree -PS (I like Phyllis)

Well, Desperate Housewives was just a boring recap
of last season, anyway. But Blazing Saddles? I guess he is not as willing to compromise? lol Men! Lord help us all! They're just simple boring creatures, ain't they?
Kitchen Nightmare is BORING. Same show and

Sounds kind of whitewashed & boring.
I don't think anyone would be interested in my boring hermit MT life.

Man, I TRIED to watch the Awards show - I really did - but it was just too slow and boring, so I gav

I really like Blake, find the girls boring this year...sm
Yes, they both can sing, what is different about that? At least Blake is different. I like his sound and how he is not just some other singer. I personally cannot wait for "So You Think You Can Dance." I really like that show much better.
Absolutely!!! Get a room already and stop boring the rest of us!

Adam's screaming is getting repetitive, predictable, and boring... All his

Thanks for that tip on Baby Alive!
I was wondering such! My daughter's birthday is in two weeks, and guess what she's asking for? More food and diapers for Baby Alive! Poor Baby Alive, she hasn't been fed since the day after Christmas! She'll be so happy when birthday time comes!
Baby Alive
You bet!!! My 5-year-old loves Baby Alive. We are on our second extra package of food (10 pack). The cost of diapers was getting crazy so I gave it a shot. You have to adjust the pretty tightly but $7.00 for 40 diapers is so much better than $4.88 for 6! I am wondering if you can used baking soda and water for food? Good Luck!
My Mom got my Baby Alive from
a yard sale, but I loved her anyway! I could only play with her in the backyard on the picnic table, or maybe I just chose to do so??? lol Anyhow, we had great times and I'll never forget her, ever! 
Baby Alive
Me too! I will be 40 next September. Wonder what became of my original? 
He's been found alive
suspect not in custody yet
you're still alive
You are still alive... thats a good thing!!
Sexiest Men Alive
Lets come up with our own MTStars list of "Sexiest Men Alive" Who would you put on the list? I'll start.
Donny Osmond
Kurt Russell
Robert Redford
Ray Liota
sexiest man alive
Viggo Mortensen
sexiest man alive
I have to also, definitely, put in a plug for my husband. I've been with him 22 years, and he's hot as well as considerate/kind, sexy, and not afraid to show emotion. Of course, he also knows I have a fondness for Viggo (Mortensen), especially as Aragorn.
Baby Alive doll
 Here's a tip if you bought your daughter a Baby Alive doll for Christmas. Go to Wal-mart and buy the White Cloud newborn size diapers, 40 to a pack -- they fit better than the Baby Alive doll diapers and they don't leak! Much cheaper way to go if your little one feeds her new baby as much as mine dones.
I had a Baby Alive when I was little, and I am almost 40 now, LOL. I loved her! nm

Baby Alive Doll
I am so pleased you were able to find one! My daughter told her grandparents that is what she wanted and they waited until the last minute and of course the dolls were sold out. I went to Wal-Mart on Christmas Eve of all days and they had gotten a small shipment in. There were only a few dolls on the shelf and I was able to get one. People were taking them off the shelf as I was standing there looking for the least damaged box. I had a Baby Alive as a child, my oldest had the one from the 90s and now my youngest has one. It seems to have become a tradition around here. LOL
yep, alive and well. Married almost 29 years now. nm
saw Paul when Linda was still alive and with him
okay - I've done a lot of concerts!
Y&R Fans -- Nick is alive! :0)
Wonder what the story line will be now? I was hopeful that they didn't kill him off for real.
The one thing that's kept me alive out on the freeway - sm
all these years is leaving a very big space in front of me, and insisting on maintaining it. The obvious reason is that it gives me time to react if something happens up ahead. But actually, the even more important reason, though less obvious, is that it gives the cars to either side of me a 'hole' to duck into if THEY get into trouble. I've seen that one feature prevent more wrecks than I could ever count. It's just as important that a wreck not occur in the lanes to either side, because they can go skidding into your lane. Another reason to leave a big space in front is the number of times people have lost things off of cars or trucks right in front of me! Those items include, but are not limited to, pipes, a ladder or two, a full-sized beer keg, lawn chairs, a HOT TUB, tires (which tend to start bouncing along at about windsheild-height...), wood, sheet-rock, AND.... once on the Ventura Freeway in Los Angeles, someone lost a full-sized TRACTOR off of a trailer right in front of me. So yeah, I like my saftey space in front!
I see Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge is alive and well...sm
God bless us, everyone!
...umm...no...i wasn't alive in 1958

I LOVED my Baby Alive when I was a little girl! NM
s
the man raped and buried a child alive
and the question encouraged him to have an excuse or reason for doing what he did.
What a story this has been. I pray this child is still alive. I SM
have been following it on Nancy Grace and something is definitely wrong with the story the mother of this child is giving.
Contact him and be thankful you found him alive and hopefully healthy. sm
If you pass this opportunity up, you may never get another chance. I think i would call him, but you also have to think about someone else answering the phone and be prepared just in case. i believe everyone deserves a second chance and a chance for explanations. my eldest brother recently had his 23yo son contact him. lots of issues and reasons, but at least his son got to meet his father. now i am trying to get the family together as i am trying to get to know my nephew via myspace. both were sitting around waiting on the other to make a move after their initial meeting and neither were doing it. just FYI though, my brother's wife also had a major problem with my brother meeting his long lost son as well. what's up with that??? i can't comprehend that. as adults, it isn't like they are only after money you know. just want to know their family is all. contact him before you regret it!
I can't keep plants alive, lucky my children are still living. nm
!
Can't give you any advice of keeping plants alive, I'm
lucky my children are still living. LOL!
I am 40 and I still have my Baby Alive doll - packed away in my attic. Love her! sm
Gave her to my daughter when she was little and she loved her - now all her dolls and mine are stored away in the attic for the next generation. I can't get rid of them....don't know why... too many memories I guess. I love dolls.
