That's why I don't read anything else but self-help books. Guffaw. nm
Y me?
I've read the books (sm)

We actually got HBO solely for the reason of watching this series.  So far it is...okay?  I love the books but the series is not sticking strictly to them, and is changing some things that I don't think should be changed.  However, by itself, I do like the series.  Just hate it when they go from books and change majorly seriously big things!!

My daughter had the books and I read them
at 50. Absolutely love them and am going with my daughter and her friends to see it. I was disappointed after I read the last book that there were not more.

I am currently also watching TrueBlood on HBO and absolutely love it. It is based on a series of 9 books and I am on book #5. Certainly would not recommend the series or books for young teens (very graphic in all aspects), but very good series. The series is not following the books, which is a little disappointing however.

I only hope the Twilight movie in in line with the books.
I just read 2 books on menopause sm
Apparently once you miss your first period, it takes on average 4 years for the peri- and full-blown menopause to be completed. Some get through faster, some slower. I'm 50 and have only missed a single period so far, but the mood swings are horrendous already, as well as the increased bleeding. EEEK - this is not gonna be fun!

Google Dr Christiane Northrup; she's written extensively about the process.


I believe we read the John Gray books because that was what was out then, but -
I think Dr. Phil's books are better and more practical. We got the relationship book when it came out to see if there was anything else we could work on. Go to counseling and REALLY work on it. It will work if you give it a chance (for the most part). I will tell you there were couples in our class who were FAR worse off than we were who said at the end they never felt closer. Not sure where they are at now, but I know for a fact my hubby and I have never been closer or happier. Remember, put as much effort into your anger, resentment, etc., as you do into cultivating a good relationship. Most of the time men are clueless the little things they do harden our hearts to them and are very open to doing what it takes to make us happy once they find out what we want and need. Good luck to you. :-)
You need to read some books on early Hebrew beliefs

experiment books, how to draw books, origami, map skill books

Do young girls still read Nancy Drew books? - sm
I know I read them when I was around 10 or 11, but that was 30 years ago and I am not sure what girls read these days.  I am trying to find someone who would really appreciate them because I believe my mom buying me my first one truly led to a love of reading that continues today (true crime no less!).  I may just donate them to our local library.  Any other ideas? 
Does anyone read the Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum books? I am hooked! sm

My MIL gave me the first three and said I would love them.  I did but too much because I stayed up until 3 last night to finish the last one!  I went out today and bought 4 through 13!  I feel like a junkie but I absolutely love them!


I think Carlos does get his sight back, don't remember where I read that.
I prefer Mike and Susan together also, I do not care for Jackson (although I was sorry to hear about his accident).
Haha! Mine spells their names wrong - and they have very common names! (nm)

Dont read this post if you dont want to know names
Brandon was not the worst of the bunch. People are for sure not voting for who they like. I will vote for Stephanie and Blake until they are gone. I couldnt get through on Lakisha and Melinda. They will be the last two IMO. I also like Jordan. I like none of the other guys. Would it be funny if all guys went home first and only girls were left!
I've sold 125 books on half.com but most were my childrens college text books. I have sold some
t I picked up for a quarter at a thrift store. Old Dr. Seuss books do well. I price them a bit lower than the rest of the pack and put that they are from a nonsmoking home. Half.com does take a small commission but they deposit the check in your bank account monthly.
Books! That's it? Books! I was expecting
maybe some leather chaps or some strap ons by the sound of your post! lol
don't remember Minnie, but I remember Kiki! Though I would rather not.

Definitely remember Buffy's Bark. Also had a Bassett Hound and remember his bark(EOM)

Looking for ~K~ names...

Hi everyone!  I am looking for a name that begins with K...Do you any of you have the perfect ~K~ name for the perfect baby girl coming to our family?  Thank you all for your suggestions!!!


 


K names
Kara, Karaleigh, Karissa, Kaela (derivative of Kayla), Korrie...all my granddaughters
Pet's names
Siberian Husky is Spunky; Blue heeler is Blue; Cats-Kitty, Sweetie, Ginger, Turtle, Killer, Twinkie; goats-LuLu, Bonnie, Clyde, Blackie. Rest of the goats have no names and neither do the 30-somwthing chickens! BTW, kids named several of these!
You do not have to name names, you
gave the state and all a person had to do was Google about student murdered in the state and the name is there.
well, I don't like it. Names are
hurtful and unnecessary. Does he not realize he is the measure for this child as he grows up? and that everything he will learn about being a good father himself he will have learned from his own. While he needs to mind, he does not need to be made inferior doing it.
Why would you consider the names
more different??? Everything has a name.
Names for a dog...sm

My husband and I are going to be getting a new puppy within the next couple of months.  I don't know if it is going to be male or a female, but we were just having a discussion about what we should end up calling him/her.  We are looking for somthing origional (no "spot" or "fido" or anything like that lol).  Something funny maybe, but nothing we would be embarassed to call him/her in public.


What are some of your guys' favorite "pets" names?


Thanks!!!

Dog names

Well, we named Bumper said name because as a puppy, he was clumsy and bumped into everything.


We loved him so dearly that 20 months later, Maggie came along (her AKC papers read Bumper's Princess Magdeline).  We actually named her after Maggie from The Simpsons, who is such a sweet and innocent child.  Now, Hubby wanted to put "Bumper's Lady Margaret" on her AKC papers but I told him I have an aunt named Margaret that I don't like, so it became Bumper's Princess (that, she is) Magdeline.  Plus, I liked the biblical reference.  


Toby, our rescue, was already named.  I guess his original name was Oliver (how cute!!!!) but his first owners changed it to Toby.  Then, when he was around 3, the mother got pregnant and decided she didn't have enough time for him.  Don't get me started on folks like that.  Dogs are a lifetime commitment (unless there are aggression issues, etc.).


Now, we have so many nicknames for each dog, it's not funny.  If you want to hear them, I'll post them when I have time.  Somehow, Bumper ended up being called Beef but I don't remember why. 


Also, we've tried to breed Bumper and Maggie (our rescue is a neut) with no success.  If they ever do have puppies, I'm going to do a theme.  Right now, I'm thinking of names from the Broadway play Cats.  There are so many cute names in that play!

Names...sm
I know someone else who named their dog DOG and pronounced it the same way. I thought that was the coolest thing.

Right now, I have cats Lucky, Tripp (Named for Matthew McConaughey's character in Failure to Launch), Stella, and the newest edition is Smokey, but I call him Max. I like people names for animals, too, so you can see who I didn't name. Over the years, I've had Mickey, Max, Sam, Pete, Chloe, and Sneezer (all cats) and my dog was Casey, who passed last summer at just shy of 13.

No names, none at all listed.
My brother and I were kids ourselves then but even his wife (stepmom to me) not listed.
Human names
I name all mine human names as they are a part of the family.  Plus, when you meet someone by that name it is hilarious!  I especially love old fashioned names for them.  Right now I have a Hazel, Eliza, Eleanor and Stella that I named.  Named one Nick as I found him at Christmas time for St. Nick.  
OUr pets names..

At the moment we only have dogs, you wouldn't be interested in the coon dogs, dh named them Bob & John..lol..


we have an australian named Rex


dh also named this other dog Zip (because he runs fast)


 


We have had in the past, horses, other dogs, cats & a rabbit in the house


Rowdy, Dusty (was a dog & a pony), Sadie, Smokey, Bandit, Laddie, Freckles, Gus, Sheba, Spek, Skippy(rabbit), Bo, too many others to think...Fluffy, Josie (cats)


some others I like Amos for a dog, a friend had a blue heeler named amos


but I agree with the other post about seeing the animal FIRST.. then go from there, I have to look at a dog or any other animal before naming them..


Since so many of you posted about your pet names....sm
I figured I would post some of the ones that I remember from current/childhood pets.

DOGS: Cody, Ginger, Roxanne, Molly, Toby, Murphy, Patch, Zoe, Cassie, Tater, Reno, Gretchen, Sally, Baby, Heidi, Bear Dog.

HORSES: Missy, Rose, Bubba, Charlie, JJ, Shadow, Vet (like Corvette), Cherokee, Dusty, Stormy.

CAT: Spanky.

FISH: On Oscar named Skit (short for schizophrenia, he has multiple personalities, I swear it!).


We exchange names, so we don't have to give many, but
this year DH and I drew my parents. Since it is a couple's draw, it gives you the freedom to spend $100 on the couple or $50 for each. Well we got nice sheets in the color they wanted, from the store they wanted, got mom a pretty silky nightgown and robe she could pack easily, and got Dad the digital tire gauge with the big readout he wanted. So they each had one to open and then a couple gift. They seemed pleased, especially about the sheets.
Yikes!! She named names!!
   
Regarding brand names of furniture

Am thinking about getting some new furniture. I noticed American Signature had a really good sale on but have never bought any from there. I kinda got stung buying some, what I thought really inexpensive and nice-looking furniture from Ashley's when I moved into my new home in 2004. Well, excited about the newness, I did not check out each piece as it came in 1 x 1. That was my mistake- could not be returned, shoulda checked the small print. A living room chair has arms, 1 is lower than the other- my Bombay chest in the foyer has 1 leg on the bottom that is slightly turned out more than the other- my bedroom furniture has the paint on top flaking off. Needless to say, I do not care about using Ashley again. Now I know I can buy the really, really costly like Broyhill, Thomasville and the like but I have just spent out almost $10,000 getting my main room tiled and my bathroom fixed in slate so now am trying to see what else I can find. Has anyone used American Signature, if so do you like and I am open to any and all suggestions about others. Thanks.
