Jewlery, seen vs saw, realator - No Message :)
I warned you! Lol
Jewlery making kits/supplies? Can you teach them to knit or crochet? Hand sewing? Hand-made
s
clothes, shoes, purses, etc...........
Believe me, a lot of women do this.
Do you buy always expensive stuff?
Or are you reasonable?
Do you have a daughter that could wear those?
If not, instead of giving them away to charity, send them to me, as a gift, I would wear them!
I am 5Ƌ", size Misses 12-14.
Shoes 7-1/2.
LMAO !

Shoes! Love shoes. Thin soles work best.
Don't be mad, but foot size might have something to do with it. I'm a 7 1/2 shoe size, and I suspect a foot much bigger than that might be a bit wide to easily hit the right pedal every time. Remove the shoe and your foot is narrower and you can feel the controls and not hit the wrong one. Just a guess because I've heard guys have the worst time with the pedal.
Buck
So sorry Hayseed  Buck was a beauty. At least he felt loved and well cared for in his final days.
Anything for a buck sm
I don't think she did it for the love of children. Just the fact that she is holding out for $$$ is a shame in and of itself. As for the media, they are to be ashamed of themselves for becoming part of it by rewarding her. The only thing I would hope for is that any monies earned would go directly to an irrevocable educational trust fund, not to her pocketbook. All 14 of those kids should have an advocate of some sort but who do you trust??? Poor babies didn't ask for this.
Buck stops with you. Your health is your #1 concern.

Does anyone make Juice Pouch purses
I have already made one with 10 pouches, which was a bit too small and not practical for me so it ended up being a container for my daughter's hair bows. They are fun to make and neat looking so I have had my girls and the girls of dd's Girl Scouts save theirs after the meetings for me so I have lots of them now. LOL. I made 2 wallets with gift cards in them for B-day presents for my DD friend's with no problems and they were a hit. Those didn't take but 5 minutes to make. My youngest dd got invited to a B-day party this weekend and I got the bright idea to make a juice pouch gift bag. I thought I would save some money buying a gift bag and usually they don't take long to make, 30 minutes.
The problem I am having now is that the sewing needles keeps coming unthreaded and they keep breaking. I have already broken 3. I did not have that problem with the others I made but this is the first big one. I never read of that problem happening in any of the tutorials I have looked at on how to make them. I am a beginner sewer so I am thinking it could be the machine. I have adjusted the tension all kind of ways and nothing seems to work. The machine I have is a 401A Singer that my aunt gave me. It is from the 1950s. The reviews I have read on this machine have been glowing. It is said to be one of the best machines Singer ever made. However last night I was ready to chunk it and get a new one. (I don't have the money really). Does anyone know what the problem could be with the needle breaking and coming unthreaded. TIA.
You both need top-zipped purses with long straps to sling diagonally over your chest

Change Your Brain, Change Your Life
I read a book once with the above title. I can't remember the author. He has done a lot of testing (and imaging) and says that often people actually have small amounts of brain damage they are not aware of that cause chronic behavioral issues.
He says that even little incidents of falling off a bike, etc. can cause damage that people aren't aware occurred.
I'm not saying this is your son's case, but I think you will have to keep investigating. Even with those who have damage, they are able to use meds to help the brain compensate for the affected area, which helps greatly.
I'm sorry you are going through this. It has to be awful for the whole family and hurtful to know your son is feeling in such a way to act that way.
I'm sure there is an answer somewhere. I hope you find it soon! - Please keep us posted.
You cannot change kids. Can only change the way

Any to think they can save us also-
There was a rescue dog who had the boy scout's scent and sniffed him out today. That dog is really in his prime now, smiling for all the cameras. So happy - see how they can turn out to be out bestest friends!!
It actually does save me a lot - sm
I make enough to almost fill two five gallon buckets and those two buckets will last me about 6 months.
House full of teens, one of them who is very sensitive to a lot of perfumes in different detergents.
My own home made laundry soap seems to get the clothes a lot cleaner too.
It took awhile to get used to not seeing the soapy suds as you do with other laundry soap tho.
how do you save
I know that it sounds like a stupid question, duh, don't spend it. But how do you get over feeling sorry for yourself when you have plenty of money, but you tell yourself no, or you dole small treats out to yourself, but it make you feel worse because you did not stick to your goal? I am chasing my tail!
another great way to save
The extra money towards the principal is a great thing to do, especially when planning on being in the same home for a long time. Some companies also offer a program where payments are made bi-monthly, with the first one being made two weeks ahead of the due date, which also winds up with a lot of interest savings over time.
My best way to save -- my mom and I share
the "club card" for our local grocery store (we only have 1 in our little town). We accumulate the points together and usually qualify for the higher percentage off when it's time to cash in (20% off 1 bill rather than 5%). Then we pick a day we can go together and ring our order up together. Of course we use our coupons, too. We just went 2 weeks ago and qualified for 15% off our total bill. Before coupons/discounts, our total grocery bill was $550 but after our discounts, it was only $283. We saved almost $200 ---- unbelievable but true.
Before dining out, I check the website of the restaurant we're going to for coupons. They usually offer a free appetizer and that helps to fill us up so we can order smaller meals. We have 3 kids and my 2 younger kids share a kids' meal since they can never eat a whole one themselves. I also like to order water -- that always cuts about $5 off the bill.
Remember -- if you donate clothes to Good Will/Salvation Army, it's a deductible dontation, so keep track.
No way would that save me money --
we'd end up divorced and that's more expensive than a haircut!! LOL!!!
PS: It might save her life, too.
I once had a landlord who, when his son was in high school, bought the son the kind of car he wished HE'D had as a teen - a fast, racy, brand-new muscle-car. Then one day, with a bunch of friends in the car, he was showing off, going too fast in it (as people in muscle cars have a tendency to want to do), and wrapped it around a telephone pole.
Incredibly, all survived with only minor to moderate injuries. The car was totalled, as was the telephone pole.
Not only did the kid learn his lesson, the dad did, too. No more car. If the son wanted one, he had to get a job and buy his own. The kid spent the rest of his high-school career car-less. He bought a used bike, and rode it a lot. But they lived up in the hills where there were big fancy houses, but no bus service, so he had to rely on friends all the time. If he went on a date, he had to take the bus or go with friends.
When he finally had the money for a car (roughly his 2nd semester in junior college), the one he bought was old and beat up, but he treated it like it was an expensive new car, and from what I hear, hasn't had so much as a parking ticket since.
Ways we save
My husband has a 401K plan and we also have mutual funds. I had a very large retirement plan with my previous employer that we rolled over and invested. We're definitely not touching any of it, but it's nice to know if we got into a huge bind we'd have the money available.
let me save you some money
You are so smart and brave, and it is just amazing that at this point in your life you would strike out on your own with two children. You are amazing. You are right though about the boy. It is going to take every ounce of strength you have to keep him in line......so he doesn't turn out like his dad.......
Maybe Jacob will save Locke.

Suggestion - save your money (sm)
Unless you need the Tylenol for pain, the only other ingredient in TPM is diphenhydramine for the sleep part. You can either use Benadryl or the generic - costs a lot less, same ingredient.

SAVE ON HEATING BILL!
A friend told me about these and my husband brought an article home today. They are Heat Surge Fireless Flame miracle heaters produced by the Amish. I will try to attach the link to the web site so you can check them out....don't panic at the price! You can order the mantle right now for $298 and get a FREE heater (normally around $600 together) The mantle (which goes around the heater) is solid wood. Right now you can order 2 per household. Click on the link that says "do not have claim code" to see where in the country you are and get the phone#. You only have 48 hours to order, and mine started yesterday.
I sure hope he wanted me to order one, cuz I did!! We already have a wood stove but this will help me not have to get up to put wood in it all night long to keep it going since I have not turned on my house heater in 3 years and refuse to!!!!
Been tempted to just to save the money- sm
but I use it to unwind at night before I go to bed. I just limit their TV time, hour in the morning, then 1-2 hours at night after dinner, off during the day. I do plan on giving them spelling lists over the summer as for some freaky reason my one daughter (5th) grade really did no spelling this year, about 2 months and that was a joke, they would give them 3 written words on a test and have them pick the one which was spelled right. Luckily she is an excellent speller and it really has not effected her but going to reinforce her skills over the summer. She loves to write so have suggested to her that she started making a collection of short stories, she started a couple days ago on her first one. Basically just going to have them play outside as much as possible and limit the TV, computer and video game time...that way they don't become slugs and get fat. Just need to figure out how I am going to deal with work as I have more now than I did last year, guess it is time to get up early though I like to sleep in in the summer, the price we pay to stay home!
This is a great idea - save your hearing
for work. (The electric ones are much quieter).
Since you have a slope, it matters whether it's rear-wheel drive or front-wheel drive. One of them will give you trouble, but I can't remember which. Salesman told DH.
Oh, Lord, save me from your Christian followers.

I'd tell him to save HIS money for a divorce lawyer sm
He seems kind of rude to me. No way my hubby would dictate to me like that. He knows I would show him the door
Save your money, other ways better spent

I think she is hoping to help save his political career so (sm)
she tries to appear supportive - for future money for herself probably. To keep him from going completely down the tubes so he can support his children. Won't work in this case I'm sure though. But it also could be that they feel sorry for the guy...I mean not only does he have to deal with his betrayed wife, he has to face the entire country and lose his career. He's probably near suicidal. I would probably have to feel sorry for my husband if he were in those circumstances, just a a basic human compassion.
I use rechargable batteries and save a lot of money.

This is the smart way to save - it is called "paying yourself first" and sm
is endorsed by Suzy Orman, Dave Ramsey and other financial planners. If you save it b/f you see it, you're much more likely to leave it alone.
Personally I've been debt-free (including my home) for 7 years and have never felt better. I don't understand people who have the urge to buy things they do not need (like the poster who said they had jackets coming from QVC today - why?).
This makes me want to have more babies and save their stem cells. sm
But, I'm confused. Is America not doing any stem cell transplants? Is that why she had to go to China? I wonder how credible this story really is. I have family in the Joplin area. I hate to be a skeptic, but I really wonder if this is true.
Save your money - just buy generic Benadryl (same ingredient) unless you have pain.

I gotta tell you
The way the past few years has been for me financially, I have often thought if I were young, I might just do that!! I can definitely see how it is enticing for young women. (And men will always find SOMETHING to be perverted over anyway!) Lol : )
Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now...
So I have been diagnosed with an overactive bladder (you know like the pipes commercial). I thought I had bladder infection or UTI starting this week. I went to the doctor yesterday and had to give the sample, but it all came back negative. Doc. stated clean as a whistle so I said what is going on? All I feel like doing is peeing and when I go most times very little comes out. He tells me sounds like you are suffering from an overactive bladder. He puts me on the generic form of Pyridium (phenazopyridine) and says takes these, but states if I finish and it is still bothering me, I need to see a urologist.
Has anyone else suffered from this before and what can be done about it? I am at my wit's end. I had this a month ago, too. I am terribly uncomfortable! The pills help a little, but still driving me crazy! Doc. stated anyone can get this and there is no real cause they they know of. He did mention stress, and I have been under more lately. Anyone else out there got any advice. My first thought is I have something major wrong with my pipes like a tumor or cancer? Any and all thoughts appreciated. Thanks!
Please read "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin DeBecker. It can save your life. NM

I agree - gotta be more than pot...
gotta be sweet!!! nm
Yeah, that's gotta be it...
Cause stuff like the OP refers to doesn't really happen right? You wish...if anything, the media downplays the evils of our society...sorry to burst your bubble!
Gotta be cheesecake,
 but my mother's bread pudding and rice pudding had to be the ultimate! I just wish she had taught me to make them!
Gotta be southern

Gotta love it here in GA
They say if you don't like the weather in Georgia just hang around, it'll change, and boy does it ever change! It's sooo windy out today and COOLLDD...just yesterday it was in the high 60s-low 70s...just peachy!!
I know. .. I gotta admit It got the best of me and I HAD to SM
post that. The DEVIL made me do it!!! LOL! Thanks for appreciating my humor!
lol gotta have that pumpkin pie!
that's great that your niece is doing that. I'm sure everyone will tell her how perfect they are, even if they are terrible. lol My 10yo "made" the pies this year. I just supervised. I was quite surprised he wanted to help. He was hesitant on making the pie crust and kept wanting me to finish it for him but I stood ground and told him he couldn't possible mess it up and that I wouldn't have given him the option if I thought he would fail. He's very proud of the pies now that they are done. Even said he'd like to try the pumpkin this year! I dont' think he's ever had a bite of pumpkin before.
you gotta make your own
Take it to a mechanic for a full point inspection.
You gotta understand, I have been seriously
thinking of avoiding her, for some time now, not the other way around. I just asked her the other night how she would feel if I was not around her and she said she did not want that. I have been thinking about avoidance now for the past 2 or more years. I am not changing my spots this late in the game. I think the best thing to do, if I am causing distress to her and she feels like that, then for me to go my way and she go hers. On us going on out of town trip her exhusband was supposed to keep their dogs they had when married. Up until the last minute when he called she had made other arrangements for dog care. He told her then he did not call her because of her attitude. Seems like it might not be all mother issues, huh? She was really hard to live with growing up and I thought, and my aunt told me she probably would mellow with age, just aint happened.
