Oldham County had the best schools in the area and is just outside of Louisville (sm)
Been a few years since we lived there, they were dry counties, but if you wanted wine or a beer in you frig, pick it up on the way out of Louisville on your way home.
Beautiful countryside, good schools and low crime rate.
Family is great but I am never back in my hometown where family is... So I always have extended fami
You can always pick your friends your stuck with your family. An Xmas for me is where my husband and kids come home to. It is what you make it!
that's a GREAT story - don't get mad, get even...
What a great story.
I hope they both sleep happily on (or in) your bed and there is still room for you. :o)
I remember my DH one time coming into the bedroom and launching himself into the air, planning to land on the bed next to me. That's when I had to announce that there was a cat under the covers he was about to land on, so he had to change his plan in mid-air.
Great story! NM
That is such a great story!!!!!! Loved it.

That is a great story. Made my day. Thx for sharing.

That is a great success story! I am really happy to hear that (sm)
someone got out of a really bad situation and worked hard and made it and is now happily married. That's the dream.
What a great story, I have a basset hound named Biscuit. nm

she is from my hometown!!
Now she writes a column, I believe, for Ladies Home Journal magazinel. She has a million dollar home,believe it or not, where she is from which is a small town in PA.
The problem is... once it's in your hometown,
there won't be any masks available to buy & someone has to be the first one infected in your town... If I was single with no children, I'd probably sit back and do nothing until it was closer, like you, but I have children & I'd rather have some masks on-hand *just in case* because I'd rather be safe than sorry. I agree it will probably not come to that, but I'd rather spend a couple of bucks and have masks on-hand just in case for my kids' sake...
The beach in my hometown in Florida (sm)
I would buy a cheesy little beach cottage and paint it tacky colors and have lots of plants outside and open my own little herbal remedies shop! Haha! That's what I want to do when I'm old and retired!

I'm in Gwinnett County, and here
the last day is tomorrow!
We're leaving elementary school behind with my youngest graduating from 5th grade at Harbins.
Pay varies by county
In my (rural) county, aide pay starts at, I believe, $11.50/hr. (I live in the southeast, too.) In neighboring county, big city, horrible kids, it is about $8.50/hour, and the aides are required to have at least 2 years of college. Go figure. The teacher pay is higher here, too.
In Washington County. nm

Bridges of Madison County s/m
The scene where she is in the truck with her husband in the pouring down rain and Clint Eastwood is in front of them and she has her hand on the door handle. I cry there every single time!!
Any Habersham County, Georgia residents out there? sm
if so please e-mail me. We're considering moving there and I'd love to meet someone in that area. Thanks!
We have 5 acres in a remote county about 12 miles - sm
away. My DH has been wanting to sell but I want to hold on to it. It has already doubled in value in the 5 years we have had it and as the sprawl comes towards us it will get more and more valuable. Plus it is river view land (5 acres), 4 acres cleared and flat and nicely sloped too. If we don't build in the next 10 years we will probably sell it later, figure maybe college money if we don't have enough set aside (we should) but it is nice to know it is there and we can cash it in if needed.
Yep. Burlington County is a big part of the Pines. nm

I worked at my county clerk's office
You get to sit through trials and stuff like that. You essentially take notes during the trial - court minutes - and keep record of the verdicts. I loved that job, but unfortunately it didn't pay very well.
they are not allowed in miami-dade county
Pit bulls are either not allowed in Miami-Dade County in Florida but I heard something about having $600,000 insurance if you own one.....but that COULD be Broward County where they are allowed. I'm in Miami.
We have a few school closings now in Sussex County.
I am in Morris, very close to Sussex and in the mountains. We should be getting a few inches for the day is over.
In our county, they summon people directly from
the registered voters pool. I'd always heard that from friends who worked at the county clerk's office, but didn't really give it much thought. I get summoned a couple of times a year & my husband never did, then when I talked him into registering to vote, now he gets summoned all the time too...
rocklin county, NY, armed gunman
wrestled to the ground by school superintendent; no shots fired. (per Fox news) gosh i'm glad my kids are grown....
HAHA... YEAH... I can just see our county jails filling up with (sm)
scores of pregnant women who (gasp!) CLOSED THEIR EYES during the *mandatory* video-viewing.
In Limestone County, Alabama, Thursday the 24th is the last day.
Students go half-day Thursday.
Reading series - Brides of Lancaster County
I love to read!! I like Christian fiction and these books are about the Amish and are soooo good! Author is Wanda Brunstetter. My husband bought me about 60 books for Christmas. I have about four left to read!

Schools have people across the county monitoring weather sm
to assess delays and closings. If there was legitimate fog, the school would be aware of it.
If it wasn't excused, it likely was A) not significant enough to cause any major delay or B) nonexistent.
Think, people.
Cool. Was born in SC. My brother lives in Butler County
I live in Finney County
Call your local county extension office or animal control to see if

I was the first girl in the county play Little League - made the All Stars too! Girls rule! Also..
that very same year I won the county spelling bee! The word I won it on was "ptomaine."
One other special thing happened to me that year I got my ears pierced and hit a home run on my 10th birthday. I swear it... I totally remember touching my little gold studs before I got up to bat and then "crack." Even the people that didn't like me playing because I was a girl had to cheer. 1978 was awesome.
My grandma also played baseball during WWI.
This thing is not connected to the above, but I am related to Martin Van Buren, 8th President.
Yeah, I just did jury duty, served on 2 trials in my small county court. There was a girl
did absolutely nothing. Good-looking, well-dressed young lady, may went out a few times (I'm sure to deliver a message or something), but other than that- absolutely nothing. What a job!. Am sure in my county at least, its all in who you know.
Good luck with your jury duty.
Limbo. Great song, great game. Also,
The girls all line up and walk through a room as if they are modeling on the catwalk. Get a couple of bright colored boa's from the party store. It's a real riot and the kids have a blast especially if a couple of brave boys grab a boa and do it too. We've had many a birthday party doing this and it was totally hilarious.
Wow!! What a great attitude! I love that - great perspective!

There is teacher's side of story, kid's side of story

Yep, we have it in our area.
Central PA, lots of Pennsylvania Dutch. My husband's family owns a butcher shop and they make and sell a lot of scrapple. I personally don't like it. And yes, I do believe it is made from scraps. I can double check if anyone REALLY wants to know. LOL!
I don't know what area you are from, but..
around here you can buy gift cards from grocery stores that give gas perks and earn points towards getting cheaper gas. A lot of them sell a wide variety of giftcards.
KC area
We live in the Kansas City area, my daughter's school had a threatening note found in the bathroom,now have metal detectors and police on campus, another county close by had all schools shut down due to bomb threat, but get this, the person suspected is not a kid, he is 47 years old. In the last 1-1/2 days, have had 4 schools in this area shut down because of bomb threats. It is getting too scary to even send your child to school, can you imagine what it is going to be like in another 10 years?
NMB area, what area are you in..?
Don't know if available in your area but...
you may want to check at your local WalMart for a NET 10 phone. In our area the NET 10 is a lot cheaper, .10 a minute compared to .25 a minute, and NET 10 and Trac are both made and serviced by the same company. May be different in your area, but worth a look? We tried the Trac phones first because we did not know about NET 10. The NET 10 phones are much better quality, they cost just a little more, and they seem to pick up in more areas, we have a lot of mountains. You can even go to the website and buy minutes, NET10.com. With the prepaid phones, it sure teaches the kids how to manage minutes, they hate to carry my phone if they run out. Costs me about $15.00 a month per phone because once the minutes are up, they have to wait until new airtime is due to get more minutes. Trac and NET 10 both do roll over unused minutes not used when you buy new airtime. Even our local dollar store carries the airtime cards, and once set up it is easy to add minutes. Just make sure you add minutes by the due date or you have to call the company and have the phone reset. That can be a pain.
area
It was at a place called Riverside park in a very populated area.
I'm in FL too but in an area where they don't do this.
I'm in Miami-Dade for 30 years and they don't paddle here in the public schools nor do they make you write 100-200 times the same sentence. Yes, the school system after elementary school is absolutely awful here, but they don't paddle. My kids went through the entire system here and came out FINE....though the entire time, even in elementary school, there were 40+ kids in every classroom....and is another reason why the system here is awful.....My kids were never late to school and got awards for attendance until getting to HS. Things changed then but they got over it and are pushing 30 and are well-rounded hard-working individuals.....Their best education was obtained in the home, I must say in this particular case. *grins*
In my area it is *70 and turns it off just for..
that call. If that doesn't work look in the front of your white pages telephone book and it should give you the code for your area.
Is there a dog rescue in your area?
I would call them ASAP. They will probably know exactly what is going on with her. They may have meds to treat her too.
