I went into the Dollar General looking for school
decorations. I walked out without buying anything.I refuse to patronize a store that does such a dispicable thing. I'm a big halloween fan and was miffed they hadn't even put out the halloween stuff yet!
I bought mine at Dollar General but sm
you have to ask for it. They keep it in the office. I use it for walking my dogs. I think Wal-Mart probably has it, too, maybe in the auto department.
Actually is a Dollar General brand Brat cause more light

Yeah I remember Prell!! I think I saw some at Dollar General not too long ago (nm)

Wal-Mart does offer health insurance to their workers. Wal-Mart pays part and the employee SM
pays part of the premium. Just like other companies do.
My hubbie and I went to see Lion King
and we just wore church attire, I wore a skirt and shirt and he wore Khakis and a button down shirt. For a matinee though I think whatever would be fine :-) Have fun the Lion King Is AWESOME!!!! I would definately pay to see it again!

Pumba. Reminds of Lion King. LOL...sm
She is a pretty kitty and sitting under the tree like she is a gift for someone. lol
Elephant and Dog being friends and mine below is Lion being reunited with his human keepers after a

We just put every extra dollar
We could toward paying all the unsecured debt we had until we only owed for the house. Then we decided we didn't really need to be living so grandly, and we really weren't living where we wanted to be anyway, so we quit jobs, sold the house and bought a smaller one where we wanted to live outright with the profit. We had a few thousand left so hubby could take a bit of time and look for work. He's an industrial electrician, so he can really work anywhere. I decided to go in a different direction career-wise, and decided to become an MT.
dollar store
One year was particularly bad and I went to the dollar store and bought 64 things and wrapped every one. It was quite an impressive hill under the tree.
I am less than $100K way from a million-dollar

Half-Dollar sized BA
yes, and that's just your opinion.
Not sure.....I vote for Half-Dollar! lol

Do you have a Dollar Tree nearby?
they have a pet odor remover product in the pet supplies. It contains an enzyme that they use in nursing homes to get rid of all kinds of odors, not just urine. worth a try, especially for just a buck! Otherwise maybe Febreeze but you would probably have to soak it and let it dry out, not just a light spray. Good luck!
SURE he can afford to work for a dollar --
What a load of manure.
My husbands check went up a whole dollar - nm

I was going to say a million dollar home today
in the NE isn't all that spectacular, sadly. And for only 300,000 you can get a fixer upper! Isn't that special? lol
If you have a Family Dollar store nearby, try to....
get a product called "Absolutely Awesome." This stuff gets the most stubborn stains out of literally everything and is so amazingly inexpensive that I finally started buying it by the gallon!
It's nice, but food prices insane and food is really bad,
xx
Thanks everyone, the thousand dollar post before made me feel CHEAP!
I will go with the gas card and some cash, good ideas. I think I got 10 bucks and told I had to start to pay more "board". Times are changing. I don't remember last time we gabbed about this subject but the gifts were way up there for high school. These sound more like what I can afford.
My cat only eats dog food and won't eat cat food or even tuna.
LOL
I am using Angel Food Network for help with food (sm)
Being much more careful not to waste food. No more fast food. Soda only if bought in a two-liter bottle, not singles or fountain. Most of my money waste was spent on food.
Pet food recall -- dog food and cat food

The best thing for dirty diapers - mini diaper bags at the dollar store that sm
smell like powder. You get 50 to a bag - they are little blue plastic bags. Tie the poopie up tight in the bag and VOILA! throw it in your trash and no smell!
tribute in general
I saw it as a tribute to a soldier in general.
I can't stand TV in general.
I watch MAYBE 1 hour a week of regular ol' TV and that is just local news blurbs. I am a big movie fanatic though.
What I really can't stand about the crap coming over the airways is the constant barrage of DRUG ADS--whether they are for prescription drugs or OTC stuff. It's just too much.
I saw a spot on the news about how stores are contemplating putting in little LCD screens into those "kiddie carts" that the adult can plug $1 into, put the kid in the plastic car/cart thing, so the kid basically can stay numbly tuned into some show while the parents shops in quiet comfort.
Heaven forbid kids are made to behave while out in public. Oh don't even get me going on the sheer retardedness of it all...
not personal, just in general...
So many nasty comments...the point of my post was (and this is the last post I'll make on the subject)a teacher won 10grand...woohoo!!! GREAT for him, a hardworking professional (and yes, underpaid) catches a break! I'm happy for him...end of story! Have a lovely day...
General Hospital
I've been watching GH for years. What do you think about Elizabeth/Lucky/Jason? I'd like to slam Elizabeth. I feel sorry for Jason.
In general, you're definitely right (sm)
I am not necessarily saying my mom is wrong - but it's not how I am choosing to raise my kids. I don't want them to be scared. I only spank them as a last resort (for defiance after warnings) and they know what lines not to cross. I rarely have to spank them and they are far better behaved than a lot of my friends' children.
Is it because of the neighbors in general
or just that you don't want to impose on anyone? I have 3 that I can borrow from and have. My very best friend who lived across the street up until last year was someone I always went to and vice versa. We could borrow anything from each other and I mean anything. We joke with each other all the time now when I need to borrow something really crazy that I wish she was still here because if I asked the others, they'd think I was nuts.
Unfortunately, he probably won't be in the general population sm
because of his celebrity status. He'll probably only see the guards and his cell.
Maybe he could be sort of a general fix-it guy
Someone in my area actually has an ad in the paper that says 'Rent-a-Husband'. For household things like building shelves or cabinets, lighting a pilot light, trapping and removing a mouse in the bathroom, or a bat in the garage, things like that. Petsitting and dog-walking are good options for a rent-a-husband, too! Or for busy people, someone to take their car to the shop for a tuneup and oil change, so they don't have to. Back in the 1970's, during the gas 'shortage', when lines for gas were hours long, people made money by taking people's cars to the gas station and filling up for them.
Maybe he could build those cute wooden children's toys you see at the fancier toy stores. And either sell them or give them to organizations that give toys to needy children. If he's 'artsy-craftsy', maybe he can come up with really cute dog-collars & matching leashes, or cute wooden pet-beds that look like miniatures of the real thing. If he likes to write, and is smart, maybe he could start an advice column for soon-to-be-seniors. (Nowadays 61 isn't really a 'senior' - I think it's closer to 75-80!) Or, if he likes kids, maybe a 'rent-a-grandpa'! Or else maybe a small mail-order business, like on eBay.
Well, that's all for my ideas, I need to get to work, myself!
Hope he finds the PERFECT idea!
I do have a son, and who is villifying men in general? sm
The one we are talking about right now is a pedophile, as was my granfather. The one I am married to is abusive.
However, I know many men who I love and respect, my stepfather who only lived with my mother for 5 years but has kept in contact with me and my sister all of our lives who I now help take care of. Many other male friends and relatives. My son who I love dearly. I have seen many women post on here and say how fortunate they are to have such a great husband. I can't defend someone who molests children though, sorry.
Waking up can happen even with general
anesthesia, happened to me in the middle of a face lift as I was having my neck liposuctioned!! So having general (which I think is more than the conscious) does not mean you stay fully asleep. There are others waking with general, have seen stories on it before on 20/20 I think. I had other surgeries after that time but this was the only time I woke during surgery. I joked with the physician later about my awakening that the anesthesiologist must have gone out for lunch at that particular time!!
Finally, it seems to go as "we" the general
I think Lakesha or Jordin, in any order will be next 2, and Blake and Melinda final 2. I like them all, so I dont care who wins.
General legal matter
Definitely take pictures to use in your defense and when you remove those vines from your house, take pictures of the removal of paint too. Most state laws allow you to control whatever is growing over your house, fence and/or yard that results from a neighbor but if you trim their plants that are on your property and happen to kill the entire tree, plant or vine, your neighbor can make you replace them. It's a matter that has no winning situation because you have to live by these people. I say get a free estimate from a landscaper and get an estimate from a painter also, talk to someone in the legal system and see exactly what your options are, and move forward to bring this problem to an end. Once you find out what action you can take, if any, tell your neighbor what you are planning to do and if they do not take care of the problem, you will move forward as planned. No way would I let this go on without doing something about it. Good luck.
Nope, general surgeon.
 Gross, isn't it?! Can't WAIT 'til cold season!
You must pick gross men in general...
Let's just call you stinky girl 
I'm just always suspicious of "statistics," in general, but particularly so -- sm
when given without the backup data which supposedly generated them. :-) Beyond that, I probably bristled more at the descriptor "filth" as a blanket term covering the categories. I suspect that most of what are considered the greatest movies ever made would not pass that "filth" test.
My dog loves coconut oil right off the spoon. Try the health food store. Sometimes in food store,

General legal matter... maybe somenoe knows
I was wondering if anybody has had this happen to them or someone they know. I have a problem with neighbors to one side of me who have trumpet vines. These are very invasive and they grow very fast. When I first moved into my house 10 years ago, they were confined to a very small area along our shared fence. Now, 10 years later, they are all along the length of the fence, are not being kept trimmed or confined, are reaching the roof of my house, growing inside my garage, behind the washer/dryer, etc. When I pull them off the side of my house (the side out front where I never go except to wash the windows in the garage once a year) the paint comes off with the leaves, leaving bare spots on the wood. This is a spot the neighbors can clearly see when they are doing their lawn work. They sit there and watch the vines grow up the side of my house without even pulling them out, knowing what it does to my paint.
The roots from the vines are now invading most of my back yard, and they grow about a foot (no joke) a week, so by the time I mow the lawn again, they are way above the height of the grass, sticking out all over. Now my lawn is ruined, and every year it is just getting worse. In order to get rid of the vines completely from my yard and property, it will have to be dug up and replaced, and even then it won't do any good because the neighbors have them all over their property and don't care if they have them growing on their roof.
I have contacted the city, and there is no law on this sort of thing, they told me it would be a civil matter, i.e., small claims court. I have asked the neighbors countless numbers of times to at least make an effort to keep them contained, and they may cut a little here and there, but a week later, there they are again. I'm done asking.
My question is this, has anybody actually gone through with a small claims suit against somebody for this or similar reasons, and what was the outcome? I have been checking around and it falls under destruction of property and lowering the value of my home. Thanks for all comments.
reads like he's disrespectful to women in general
If he is a passive-aggressive type, there is ABSOLUTELY NO HOPE for the relationship....get out while the gettin' is good....
I agree, let the general public take care of them; I will.

Check with your state attorney general's

An OB doctor yes, I am talking about general practitioners or even.....sm
pricey specialists, most do not even cover emergency rooms or in-hospital patients anymore, many hospitals in my area have gone over to a large percentage of "hospitalists", a new specialist who works only in hospital, and when you go into that hospital, the hospitalist stays in close touch with your PCP and records, but is in charge of your care, freeing up the time of the PCP. So much for progressive medicine, what good are all the advances in technology/testing/meds, when the doctors do not take the time or care enough to spend the time with you, without overloading their schedules every day to bring in more $$$, to truly DIAGNOSE THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM CORRECTLY so the proper care is gotten right away. And I am not talking as an MT here, I am speaking as a former LPN, CMA, and office manager, who used to be "ordered" by her physicians to fit in a few more, many times QUADRUPLE booking.....many doctors have just lost compassion, it does not come with the degree!
I'd still hire a local general contractor.
Whether modular or traditional stick-built, there are a million details, legalities and regulations involved - and you'll likely still need some local subcontractors. A good general contractor can save you a ton of grief and bad experiences.
Wal-Mart - $12 plus $2 tip - sm
I paid $20 plus $4 tip for a couple of years and was never completely satisfied but scared to switch hairdressers. I was in Wal-Mart one day and got a look at myself in the mirror and marched straight to the beauty shop in the store and got a cut. Been going there ever since and am completely satisfied...with cut, price, and convenience. No appointment necessary. I just go whenever I start looking straggly.
Wal-Mart
I was told Merry Christmas at Wal-Mart by the check-out lady last night. . but it is a small town in Ky.. so it might be different in a bigger town.
I have one from Wal-Mart....sm
I got a Bissell with attachments. I love it. I used it just tonight for the first time. You should have seen the dirty water!! I think for the price it is great. It has a switch where you can choose a heavy duty cleaning or a normal cleaning or just a water rinse. I love it so far!!
Hah ! Wal Mart
I swear, at my Wal Mart Saturday nights are a zoo, every weirdo in the county is there. Two weeks ago I was online with my 11 year old daughter for over 45 minutes. There was a woman in front of me with a teenage, a girl who looked about 13, and another who looked about 10. The mother was having a phone conversation on her cell phone, and every other word out of her mouth was the F word. I finally told my daughter to go look at the books so she wouldn't hear this woman anymore. I should have said something to this woman, but she looked like she could beat the heck out of me, so I didn't.
