Doesn't offend me to hear Happy Holidays, Happy Hannuka...sm
or any way someone wants to greet me. As a basic rule, people use the greeting most comfortable to the speaker. What does burn my butt is when someone tries to tell me that my comfortable greeting of "Merry Christmas" is not appropriate. To those who are not concerned with my comfort, I have no concern for theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.
Birthday wish to justme2....Happy B-day to you, happy B-day to you. now make your wish...
I wanted to wish you a very Happy B-Day...I am aging so tomorrw I may forget or at least remember at midnight...LOL...to all you celebrating B-Days this month, Congrats
Happy Bikrthday to me, happy birthday
Unbelievable, I have reached the age of 65- where did the years go?? I would retire but gosh, darn just love this work so much, want to keep on working. Hubs had me a delicious huge chocolate cake this morning and daughter coming over for pizza tonight, oh forgot working today also but like I said, hard to give this terrific life up, that is a life in between my working!
This is SO not your business. sm
It you grandchild has cavities, then it is up to the parents to provide dental care. Why you would want to deprive a young child of that age an Easter basket, I have no idea. You seem to have issues with the exhusband, but at least he provided the magic of the season.
You are not raising this child, or are you? In any case, thank God the father and stepmother came up to bat for the holiday.
Have your daughter take that kid to a dentist, and stash all the cavity-causing evil Easter stuff.
That is SO none of your business.
Kids can resent their parents for a multitude of reasons. Let their parents choose when to let them know.
Is it your business?
Why is it your concern that she sits in her room every night? If she pays her rent on time and doesn't break any laws or rules what is your problem? Did you want a roommate or did you want someone to control?
Obviously, you don't approve of her choices, but that does not make her weird. She isn't shooting up drugs, having a different sex partner in every night.
How much is too much alcohol? If she isn't passing out and she is going to work every day, it isn't too much. Some people think one drink is too much.
If you don't like her, just tell her that it isn't working for you and you need to find someone who fits your lifestyle. With the next roommate, be up front about your expectations - look for a Mormon who goes to the gym every day.
Frankly, you sound like a piece of work.
Oh well is right. None of your business. sm
Please don't start. Your posts sound like you're just chomping at the bit, and it would be a shame if this thread got ugly.
It probably really isn't their business...but,
I told. I think my kids appreciated that their anal mother was human too. As they got older, I told more and we all got a good laugh out of it...
It isn't my business what they do...sm
But I personally don't agree with it. I think it is just disgusting but that is my opinion.
how are they still in business?

It's their business, no one else's. At 28, she
I think people need to get out of other people's business when it comes to stuff like this. What does it matter to anyone what age difference? Both are well into adulthood. It is their choice.
I think she should mind her own business - NM

Exactly. The racehorse business
is just that - a business. They don't breed and run these horses out of the kindness of their hearts just for the fun of it. There is a huge amount of money involved. The money that passes through the betting windows on a daily basis is unbelievable. It is the same with greyhounds. I don't care how pampered they are or how much they are loved, they are bred to earn money and that is exploitation.
Travel business
Hi, check out my site at ManzoTravel.com and then this site to found out more,
www.teamresult.com and click on Steve Carmack's presentation about the business. I joined and have saved thousands. If you need more info e-mail me at mdalrymple@tampabay.rr.com. You will love this, I have saved thousands.
It's the Entertainment business . . .
it's always been that way. It's called American Idol, not Best Singer - you kind of need the whole package. The Idols that have won and didn't have the look have not amounted to much.
Nope. It is not your business to tell them.
Yep. Risky Business was fun but
I never found him attractive as a man, just "pretty." And I don't like pretty boys unless they have some character to back it up. And I don't mean "crazy character" like jumping on Oprah's couch! LOL
re: housekeeping business
I think it is a very lucrative field and if you do it right you could make quite a chunk of money! However I think you need to be bonded if you're going to have alot of houses/clients to work for. Not sure how to do that. Also doing cleaning for realtors as they sell houses is good too! Used to do that and then the houses were empty, just cleaned bathrooms, carpets, walls etc....
It was a good job.
The down side is that you may end up running yourself ragged!
Let us know what you decide!
uncalled for AND NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS
   
Mind my business?
You rude ( I cant say on here what I would like so I will leave it to your imagination). If I was minding her business don't you think I would be calling her or going over there. No I am not. I AM minding my own business. I am well aware that a person can do what they like with a gift or card they get. But what a rude person to just put a card in a drawer that someone went to the trouble of sending. It doesn't change the fact it is rude. Don't tell me to mind my own business. You are probably one of those people who has no friends so of course you wouldn't have in insightful info on any experiences with friends. Therefore don't answer my posts. Concern for a friend does not make me clingy. Yes we talked all the time on the phone and emailed a lot. Why wouldn't I be concerned when that stopped? I have a life. I have a job, a husband, a son, and many pets. I have plenty to occupy my time. But I am not the type of person to not show concern.
If its a business letter,
I wouldn't use Thanks. It's too informal for me. I use the old standby Sincerely most often.
stores that are going out of business
I got my teenage son all new bedding. Down comforter, designer sheets, etc. There are some good sales at these stores shutting down.
And yes, he wanted an Ipod, but he sleeps all the time anyway, so have a nice bed I think!
Honestly -- it's none of your business!
.
And how is it your business what I put in to my body, if I sm
do not drive, use in the privacy of my own home? You are a self-righteous prig. MYOB. Live your life.
Alcohol and cigs should be illegal?? Wow, what a repressive person. Just b/c you don't like something doesn't give you the right to take it away from everyone else.
business vs. family
If you haven't given notice already (reading between the lines, it looks like you have), my recommendation would be to NOT give notice until you have received your last check. Find some reason to call-off during the time period between last day worked and last paycheck.
With family, you would still have the same legal options if she is a regular employer, it's just you would flame the fire by using them.
Those options include reporting to the labor board in your state, filing a claim in small claims court, etc. You would need to get specific advice from an attorney based on your state's laws.
If she has been paying you under the table, it could be more complicated than that.
Aside from all that, though... Try to mend the fences NOW - figure out why she's so angry with you, and if there is anything you can do to make amends, do it! Life is too short to carry grudges against family.
Best wishes!
I had a similar business
no one really appreciates homemade stuff. They would rather buy something at Wal-Mart. I spent all kinds of money on packaging that looked storebought and labels, to sew inside, etc, and I still ended up giving them all away for free.
It is none of his business or anyone elses for that matter. sm
I love Halloween. I love Christmas. Well, I don't really care what anyone else thinks. I decorate more for Christmas than I do for Halloween. There are people now that don't celebrate Christmas too. You know what I think.. to heck with them and ALL of THEIR beliefs. I am going to continue to do what makes me happy and what has been celebrated in my family for way more years than I want to admit. The world is changing. Whether we decide to go with it is OUR choice. If you have fun doing it, then don't worry about what anyone else thinks. It really is none of their business. For the first year in probably 18 years, I am dressing up with my children and I look forward to it (They asked me too). And even tho it is early, Happy Halloween!!
once you are of celebrity status, your business....
.
I'm well aware of such business ventures.
It is one thing to have legal international business ventures and quite another for our financial institutions to be actively pursuing illegal aliens in this country and offering them financial sanctuary.
Go douse yourself with some of that flea repellent, lol.
Not arguing about the right for a business owner--sm
to refuse service to anyone, but, according to the article I read, OJ and his group came into the restaurant, sat in the back and were not causing a problem. The owner had the problem, as one of the waitresses was *giddy* that OJ was there. He specifically stated he asked OJ to leave because he did not like what OJ had done (in the past). To me, that is discrimination. He was not causing a problem. It was the owner of the restaurant who had a problem. But that is just my opinion.
I just do not think it is right that a place that is *open to the public* can ask someone to leave just because they do not like that person. If OJ had been causing a problem, that would have been different, but he was not. It was all the owners feelings about the man. that's all.
However, this thread is taking an ugly turn and since I have said all I have wanted to say on the subject, I am backing out now. Have a good day.
business. Get lost because I'm not ready! nm

what I did growing up really is none of my kids' business.
Here and there I've volunteered information and shared stories that actually do lend validity to my opinions and the rules I have set for my kids. But I have to tell you that I was really a pretty good kid. I have maybe only one or two regrets, but I haven't shared those with my kids. And if they asked me about them, I'd lie and say nope, never did that.
Has any of you turned your hobby into a business?
What is it, how did you go about it and how well do you do? I'm SOOO tired of doing MT work at night and would like to start doing something I love as a way of making money.
Tell your roommate to mind her own business
is your choice. Kick the BEOTCH out and enjoy your glass(es) of wine or wine coolers.
Tell her you've gone into the petsitting business
(In my area petsitters charge $20 per visit for one animal, $5 extra for each additional animal in the household. That doesn't include extras like walking dogs, giving medications, etc. If she expects you to take a cat to the vet if it gets sick while she's away, she should leave you a signed, blank check made out to the local emergency veterinary medical center. Most won't let you in the door for less than $500, and won't treat the animal 'til that's paid. My guess is your sis would be inclined not to pay you back if it were to come out of your pocket. Might consider having her sign a waiver of liability, too.)
It's the same business model as Amway
I've talked to Melaleuca people before. It's the exact same business model as Amway or any other home based business. Yes, you make some profit from selling the product itself, but your real profit is from signing other people up to do it. It's multi level marketing, which is absolutely legal..
If you're good at approaching people you don't know about buying something, then it might be good for you. Don't do into it thinking you'll sell to your friends and family and build a business from there. I've tried that with another product (one that my friends and family loved, so it wasn't like I had to work to convince them about the produt itself).
If you decide you want to do it, go for it. Be aggressive and treat it like you would any other business. You have to work it and it will take a while to be profitable. It won't happen over night.
If you decide you don't want to do it, be very, very, VERY clear to the guy. They are very persistent, borderline aggressive in trying to get you to do this. They do not hear the word no. It's not in their best interest to hear that word. Take note of his tactics and think about whether you could apply the same things to other people. If you can, go for it.
I think he's a self-righteous busybody who should mind his own business. SM
Most of the people I know celebrate Halloween. They understand where it came from. It has nothing to do with evil. It's a celebration of dead soles and the hope for a mild winter and plentiful spring and summer seasons. What's evil about that?
Business owners are usually private citizens
and as such have right of refusal - I sure did when we had our own business. If you see a potential problem you want to get it back out that door pronto. Maybe the owner knew his clientele would not stand for OJ sitting in the restaurant and being served, etc., and believe that is his choice, his call. If he has other patrons of different races, religions, etc., can't see he would be concerned about a law suit. This is not even a religious matter or sexual discrimination - which is protected by law - OJ is hated still by many - his problem.
A big sign at a local business that had moved said
Come see us at ARE new location - on both sides of the sign!
Houskeeping business PT? (sm) can't stay motivated! (sm)
I love working my own hours, love the medical field - but I am getting fatter by the day, and I am tired of the house being quiet, and our format has changed and now I can't make enough money. I am thinking about starting a housekeeping business. What do you think?
better business bureau, consumer advocacy, etc.
and I suggest you do the same...they don't care about us in the USA...they opened 15 stores in China less than 2 years ago....yes they have the absolute CHEAPEST prices but I'll pay a tad more to not sell out.....but it's difficult....finding things NOT made in China, by China, etc.....been using agreatergift dot org to buy gifts - they are from foreign countries but at least they state what country and all $$ benefit artisans and craftspeople of that country....and the quality of their goods is EXCELLENT.....I spent over $300 last year on my first and only order so far.....and gave away as gifts and folks loved the items, oh and they were lovely items at not very expensive costs.
I still say boycott Wal-Mart - Sam Walton is turning over in his grave as we speak........blame his offspring.....
And he'd know all about her private business/health issues, too,

Your decorations sound great. He has no business telling...
you how to live or how to decorate. Comparing Halloween decorations to the Amish shootings is more bizarre than your decorations could be. I would definitely not take it down. Just because he does not celebrate Halloween is no reason to ruin yours.
Some states require a Doing Business As license if you work

I've decided to start a cookie business! Anyone up for helping me out with a name?
I know with the economy and all, it's probably not a good time to open a new business, but I've been thinking about this for years and just want to do it anyway and very happy and excited about it!
So, some words I've been playing around with are yummy, goodies, goodness, sweets, comfort, cookies ... but nothing is really grabbing me. I've even tried to think of ideas without those type of words above, such as "Big D's" or whatever.
If anyone has any good ideas, I'd love to hear them!
Yeah...might not if you use blunt scissors to "take care of business" LOL
Sorry..I'm evil today but cheaters have HUGE issues..I was an "other woman" and trust me..it isn't just the wives they lie to. I loved this "married" man for years and years, but you know how that goes...He was going to leave her for me..always..just needed to wait until the kids were grown, worried about breaking his mom's heart...etc..I learned a long hard lesson about cheaters. I feel sorry for his wife. She never deserved that.
When puppy does her business where you want her to, reward her with a piece of food treat.
And when she pees in house, use paper towels and then place paper towels (soiled) to the area in the yard where you want her to do her business. Dogs tend to prefer where they smell the odor. Be patient. This dog is young. Confine her to an area where the floor will not be damage (tile or vinyl). Take her out six times away,including first thing in AM, right before bed, after she eats her meals. Pull water up a few hours before bedtime. Do enjoy your new puppy dog.
