water for a long long ways and water is clean and beautiful. Can't remember the name, but it's about a 3-hour drive from San Antonio. I'll see if I can locate it. They go there all the time. nm

Corpus Christi Texas - 150 miles of beach...
sand is very hard though....LOL - and since I was there, I heard they built up that city. I was there in the 70s but I remember what a GREAT time we had (a bunch of us) and how laid back it was.....bring lots of sunscreen/block as it's subtropical sun there as is S. Florida.....and for west coast of Florida, Naples, Fort Myers, Sarasota, Tampa, Clearwater
My mother had one on her knee, a knee that
had been replaced. She did great afterwards, made all the difference in the world. Good luck to you!
My sister-in-law and I walk together several times a week. We don't walk on a flat surface
we walk around a park that is constantly up and down so we get a better work-out and it is much more enjoyable to have someone to walk with. I have also joined Curves and really enjoy that.
Beach or mountains? Beach. Chinese or BBQ?

Something else about your knee pain
I have been there, know all about the aching and knees giving out but hubs told me I should try omega 3, the fish oil products, and it worked wonders for me. One time got down and couldn’t get up, he had to help me and so embarrasing. I now can do squats, climb stairs and the ole knees basically are working. He has a vehicle that I still use the hand grip to get up into but other than that, my knees are 1000% better - I take it each and every day, not expensive and worked for me.
then how about a knee in the crotch every time - sm
he gropes.....he might get the message then......
Yep. Just walk away. Nod a lot, and walk away even if they are in midsentence.
I even do this with my family if they start up. And when I start up myself (in my own mind) I distract myself and get onto doing something completely different. Some people thrive on negativity. I have enough problems getting my mind positive. Life is way too short to dwell on negativity. Just walk away and go smell a rose somewhere. Just my advice. :)

I'm a Tide girl...
I've never found a cheap laundry soap I like. They just don't make my clothes seem very clean.
I really like all these new detergents with Febreze and Downy in them that smell so nice. Looking at the big picture, unless you have like 10 kids you shouldn't be doing THAT much laundry to where you have to skimp on laundry soap. A large box lasts me a few months so I don't mind spending $15 on it.
Tide is great
I have wanted to try Tide because my stains just won't come out no matter how much bleach I put in with the detergent, usually store brand or one of the cheaper brands. I have 7 dogs, all white and they shed. I've been hanging my clothes out since my dryer broke and there is always hair on them from the dogs. I tried Tide mainly because of the stains to see if it really worked like it said. After washing a normal load that would have had dog hair on it, lots, as I was hanging up each piece I noticed no hair on anything. This is unbelievable to me. I only used 1 scoop for the whole load, a little bleach and I was shocked. This was not even why I bought it, but I am sold and will buy it from now on. I got is on sale 4.99 for 40 load size. It was well worth it and the clothes looked much brighter.
After THREE visits???
I think harder than that about whether or not to toss a sweater.
This shrink sounds like a megalomaniac if s/he thinks this amount of insight can be gleaned from 3 hours' worth of conversation.
Liquid Tide, but I look for sales.

Tide--Mountain Spring nm
nm
My MIL has a hawk that visits her
bird feeder, and it's a normal Cooper's hawk. They are famous for this activity. But I think the one I get might be a red tail. At my MIL's he seems to be after doves, but my hawk seems to come when babies are on the ground - usual the red thrasher babies. I have seen this hawk sitting up on a branch of my oak tree, looking down. I know to look for him when there isn't a bird in sight around my feeders. I agree, dense bushes, preferably evergreen and ones that get berries the birds like are ideal companions to bird feeders.
doctor visits
Do you find that you question your doctor for every little thing? I do and my poor doc gets very frustrated with me.
I recently took my 17-year-old for his sports physical. Every year, we have been in and out, no problem. This year, he says son needs an EKG, that it is required for sports physicals now. (I know that's not true). He says he needs a meningitis vaccine to get into college (don't know about that one).
At my last visit, out of the blue he said I needed a sleep study because I looked tired. Of course, I'm tired. Working all the time, going through menopause, kids to raise, husband who kicks all night long in bed. I told him I would not have a sleep study and he got mad.
I had a friend tell me once that the way the docs at this certain practice (there are about 300 docs in this practice) get their raises is dependent upon how many of their patients actually follow through and get tests done that are ordered (the practice is associated with the hospital). Has anyone else heard of this? Since then I doubt everything the poor guy says.
Totally serious. A box of Tide in a random drawing when I was about 15 and went..sm
to the store with curlers in my hair. What was I thinking? I get embarrassed remembering it. L-O-N-G time ago. I am thinking I am perhaps overdue for a win of some sort!
Agree. I use liquid Tide, which is concentrated, so

no tx just 9-month visits to eye specialist...sm
Told me to keep tight control of the sugar and to be seen q.9 months at this special eye institute....seems to have gotten better too over 2 years....hope your goes away soon.... 
some of these states make home visits
monthly to monitor, speaking with the children in private, so ya, it could happen. Educate yourself on the laws of your state and then give yourself a break.
My deceased husband visits in dreams and
I am remarried, to one of his best friends.
I personally would stop coming home for visits.

R u in Texas?
nm
Same here! Texas and
hot! Can't wait for the window-opening weather!
Where in Texas? I'm in far
north Texas. Just wish my kids could see real snow! Hayseed, it does sound beautiful there! I worked for a company in Maine and got a lot of information and it just sounded sooooo beautiful! But here I am in Texas, no snow, just ice here and there!
OP in Texas, isn't she? Anyway, that's what
xx
and in Texas
 almost 70 degrees and I have been out walking in the sunshine!
I'm a Texas
 girl too - in Fort Worth, where are you??
Can anyone walk me through this?
I just got an ipod today and cannot get songs to download. I purchased some songs, and they are downloaded onto my computer, but I can't seem to get them onto my ipod. Could someone please walk me through step-by-step to do this? When I click on file, then copy to device, it tells me no device is detected, even though I have the connection to the computer and to the ipod. Help, please!! 
That's exactly why I won't walk our dog
My husband and I have a golden retriever/lab mix. I am not an animal lover but do have compassion for animals. My husband is the animal lover. If my husband is out of town on business, I will not walk the dog. Just the smell of dog doo makes me gag and vomit. I will, however, let the dog loose in our yard and watch her to make sure she stays in our yard while she exercises, but I will not walk her because I wouldn't be able to clean up any messes.
As for fines, I would imagine there is some sort of punishment in our small town and I think there should be across the board. Our dog is trained to do her business in 1 area of the yard that my husband picks up weekly before mowing the grass. If I find doo anywhere else in my yard, I am not happy. We have 3 kids who like to run and play and know to stay out of the dog's area. Having to clean off their shoes because someone else was lazy with their dog infuriates me.
Way to go NY!!!!! Hope it comes to my hometown soon!
New Texas Rule
 I for one am so glad I do not live in Texas. To force someone to take a shot like that! It should be the parents who decide. I have suffered from cervical cancer and no I do not want my two daughters having this injection. We do not yet know enough about the side-effects and long-term effects of this new drug.
Do you live in Texas? :)
a
Southeast Texas?

I'm far North Texas
so that wouldn't work for me, but thanks for the info! Sounds like you got a great deal.
In that case, Texas ought to be against also
because their capital punishment rates right up there with Florida and I would bet Texas is definitely into whuppings!
$3.41-3.45 here in West Texas. I have been
checking out yard sales for a bicycle. Not just about gas, I need to loose about 50 pounds plus all these short trips to the store is hard on the vehicle anyway.
i try to walk more than a mile a day
How much did you walk? Every day? How many miles - sm
I have 60-80 to lose (80 pound weight loss being my HS/college weight) and cannot exercise right now except for walking (hurt my arm/shoulder). Since I cannot go to Curves right now until my shoulder is diagnosed and healed (will know the verdict Friday) I plan on getting into a walking plan right now since the weather has finally turned beautiful and am going to try to walk off at least 20 pounds before my OB/GYN appt in 5 weeks. Since you had so much success in 6 weeks of walking, I'd love to know the how much and how often you walked. TIA.
I walk to her videos too!
I have this one where they sing this "power walk" mantra in the background when it starts out. Then I have that song in my head the whole day! I think I'll just plug in my little MP3 player instead and find tunes that match the different paces, because although I enjoy the video immensely, that "music" has just gotta go! Oh, if you walk to her videos where she uses something called a "stretchy band," I found a 3-pack in varying resistance strengths at Walmart for $5.00. Total deal.
my guess is they take you for a walk!!
what a handful! But cute!
WALK THOSE BEAUTIES! LOL! nm

If you'd like to check it out, register yourself in a city near you, or donate, you can check out my website on their website:
http://www.walknowforautism.org/minneapolis/team/teamderrian
I appreciate your time,
Tanya
get out of the house and go for a walk
or a bike ride or a picnic. Sometimes I go outside and talk on the phone or watch my kids play. The point is to get out of the house and be outside.
$2.06 in fort worth texas
Down from $2.15 last week.
Texas beaches suck.

Blue Ridge, Texas
School is out this Friday and my 2 kids will be home and I have to start getting up earlier and working in the early, early morning and late evenings!
There was a hospital here in Texas that called 911
It was a physician owned hospital. The story was on CNN. A man had back surgery there, had some sort of bad reaction to the anesthesia and the wife herself had to do CPR. The surgeon walked in and told her to call 911.
The hospital has been shut down.
Texas-mine started
back today
We live in North Texas
and have been here our whole lives. Have visited both CC and Galveston a lot of times. We're thinking of moving closer to one of them, maybe on outskirts somewhere, but are just wondering pricing for homes or even just land to build on. Any idea if is it way high because of beaches?
Texas polygamist compound
what's with the ladies and the hairdos - you know those pompadours. Anybody know? I know there are more important things in this case, but it just strikes me.
Yes, big Texas accent & proud of it.
