if your husband objects, he's as sick as they are. Maybe the two of you should go over some night and watch the video, see exactly what your son is forced to watch every day?

oh I agree with your statement about family...LOL...
No, I don't want *ANY* family just *dropping by* unannounced.......*LOL* -
Friends yeah, neighbors yeah
family....no thank you *rofl*
oh and I do love my family.........it's just that *family* can be and usually are so judgmental...........we don't get to *choose* our families.....but we do our friends *S*
but then I rolled off the family tree of nuts.......*l*
I have to agree here. Go home and see your family....sm
who needs doom and gloom day-in and day-out. Really, you need to celebrate the little things in life, like waking up and just being able to breath the fresh air!!
Family is what makes you happy and feel fulfilled........go home and see your family. Be happy, enjoy life...cause you only get one shot at it.
Best of luck and I wish you happiness and peace!
I totally agree, and my family knows I
do not want to be viewed. However, I have heard a few psychologists say it is better for the ones we leave behind to actually see us this way to help process the death and to move forward. I still don't want it for myself. To each his own I guess.
I agree with you, but I worked really hard to come up with the $1,700 and our family had so much fun
My kids are young teens and it was a family affair that everyone loved and we would for hours and hours together. No, it isn't anything compared to losing my home and thank goodness, but it hurts me to no end that a theif got away with it and so will my sister and BIL. There's no way they will pay unless I take them to court, and I just can't do that.
I so totally agree with you there are many, many addictions in my family
leaning towards them in some respect,i.e. gambling, overeating, drinking. I completely stay away from gambling and drinking, and am working on the overeating. Have never needed drugs, i.e. pain killers or nerve pills, but I also hope I never "need" them for fear of becoming addicted.
I am the one who posted about the debate of "disease versus not disease", but so get what you say about labelling it and giving the abuser an excuse to not get help.
I have to agree. Places of worship are like family.

I agree. The Goldman family is a class act. They
deserve justice for their son and this is finally a feather in their cap. The sight of that moron Simpson makes my blood boil. Mr. personality can now give that big Colgate smile to his cell mate in prison. How will he ever continue the search he said he would be on to find the real killer of Nicole and Ron now that he will be incarcerated? What a joke and what ignorance of the people who let him slip through the first time around.
Sick of snow...sick of cold...sm
that lil ground rat just HAD to see his shadow, didn't he! aaarrrggghhh.
I agree completely with Jerrie, Call your local Division of Family Services and they can help
tremendously, especially if she is a danger to herself or others. They can take custody of the elderly, as they can the young children, and protect them from all sorts of abuse, including themselves. You will not be a bad person for doing this, but perhaps a Godsend.
My prayers are with you.
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!
Summer. Friends or family? Family. Tired or Awake?

Big difference between family values and family jewels, eh? lol
LOL. I love this show. I think Gene and Shannon and her sister are a riot! What characters. It really is amazing to me the kids seem so laid back and so normal. They seem like great kids.
Does your family still do the early Sunday dinner w/family?

SIL family, us and another family snacked,played

You are sick
You need a therapist. You told another poster that you have a relative coming to visit - so, this relative can't go to dinner with you and your friend?
It's extremely obvious to any thinking person that you don't have many friends. Your arrogance and self-absorption come through in your every word. It would be interesting to get your friend's point of view on this. I'd bet my first born that this is NOT the first time you've done this, despite what you said to the poster above.
Right back at you - glad I don't know you either. I run in higher class circles.
I am sick about it
Did you see on the news the senator (I believe), an elderly gentlaman who was so furious about this. He said that the hottest places in h____ are for those who abuse God's innocent creatures. Good for him. I am waiting for the day when all of these offenses against animals are considered a felony.
sick with the flu right now
ahhhhhhhrrrrrrrgggggggg
when i am sick,
i keep on working and just try to take care of myself. my husband was sick during his vacation and never stopped complaining about how tired he was, how terrible he felt, blah, blah, blah. it drove me nuts! he never offered any sympathy when i was ill AND working! (pardon my whining)
Am I sick or what?
I am typing a lady with appendicitis. Am I sick to think, "She's so lucky. She got out of cooking Thanksgiving dinner."
How sick is that!!!
..
What a sick SOB....sm
Animal abuse REALLY fires me up. I am a true animal lover, especially dogs. I think they should break both of his front legs and he should not be given anything for pain either. They should let him sit there a couple days too before taking him to the hospital to have surgery to repair them. And while he is sitting there with two broke legs he should have to fend for himself. No tolerance at all when it comes to animal abuse. They wouldn't want me to be the judge in this case.
We were really sick here in TN...
for 2 weeks straight with a bad cold - horible cough, congestion, high fever, sore throat, body aches. We were tested for flu and strep, both of which were negative. Maybe could have been mono? Anyway, I don't think I've ever been that sick in my life.
So you would rather be sick than preggers ...
Ya, me too.
:op
Emergency sick day!
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS just arrived by UPS!
How am I going to work now???
(kidding of course)
That makes me sick.

People are sick!!
What is wrong with people? How could anyone do harm to their kids? Just last night a lady here in SC stomped on her 6 m/o baby and then choked her to death. She is an 18 y/o mother and also has a 4 y/o son, who is now in protective custody. These people need to find Jesus!!
you wouldn't think it was so sick if you had GID

People are going to get sick of me but... sm
The real tragedy is that some gays and lesbians will NEVER be able to have a fufilling life or relationship because they are too afraid to be themselves.
As I said earlier, I have many friends who are either gay or lesbian. I have also lost friends to suicide because they were too ashamed to come out or their families just simply could not accept who they really were.
A girl I worked with many years ago, whom I also considered a good friend, ended her life because her family would just never accept her for who she was.
Her family was Hispanic and very very traditional. This business was just not going to fly with them.
Gloria didn't see any other way and she took her own life. It was horrible.
I never ever want to even think I might be responsible for something like that because one of my children or friends was too afraid to be open and honest with me about their preferences.
Thank you - I appreciate it - yes, he's rarely sick (sm)
and if he gets even a cold he goes to the doctor and takes a day off from work and lays in bed all day. I wish I could have health that good!
I am so sick of hearing about
I have heard enough!
Apparently she still has all of her female parts, except breasts...she gave birth vaginally...so it's NOT A MAN...IT'S A WOMAN. I certainly hope that losing one's breasts does not disqualify us from being a woman. This poor child is going to be so confused when she learns the circumstances of her birth. Not to mention that the other woman is breast feeding her...I feel for the innocent baby who is going to be the one to pay for her parents stupidity!
sick to my stomach
Hopefully when he dies, he will have to live among cats who kick him for an eternity.
I am so sick about the the economy
All those people on TV are talking about a 400.00 or more increse in their mortgages. They spent over 600.00 a month on extras. This was on Operah. I can't believe that these people don't have a clue.
Between the 400.00 and the 600.00 on extras...that is what I get in one month.
I have cut back as much as I thin is possible and it is still difficult to make ends meet. I even have went so far as to unplup everything that I am not using.
How do you cope?
I have always been a little sick of having get everyone a present
It's ridiculous. It's Jesus' birthday, not everyone elses. I would be very happy if I could get away with only buying for my own children for Christmas morning from "santa," and I wouldn't care if nobody got me anything or anybody else got anything for my kids.
It is just so stinking ridiculous to have to buy for my mom, my sister and her spouse, my sister-in-law and her spouse, my brother-inlaw and his spouse, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, two aunts and uncles, three nephews, three neices, and two cousins.
I am just so sick of the money that is spent for all this cr@p. And it is cr@p. Last year one of my daughters got a piano book from her aunt, and she doesn't even freakin take piano lessons. Might as well just flush your money down the toilet.
You could have been sick or dead
in your room for all they knew. wonder what they would have told investigators? The next time they make plans, don't go, tell em you got a ham operator to send out a morse code message, didn't they get it?
sick pets
I get my critters from the shelter also and have brought home sick animals before. I would just take him to vet tomorrow. PLEASE AVOID Banfield at PetSmart. Usually vets offices have a few morning hours on Saturday. Take him tomorrow.
It really makes me sick
that psychiatrists these days are so quick to say "just cut ties and get on!"
Have you tried couples counseling like suggested above? Or talking? Maybe speaking with a pastor? Is your husband expecting this or is it going to be a big surprise?
Don't just give up on your marriage. Just because it's not the fairy tale every little girl dreams of doesn't mean that it can't work out and become amazing. But it takes work. Lots of it. There is no such thing as an easy marriage.
Take care, and please, don't just go off of what your psych says!
My new puppy is sick!!!
Okay, everybody, my new puppy that I love so much already has parvo and is in the hospital. She went in yesterday morning. So far, so good. No vomiting and no diarrhea for 41 hours, but they are not wanting me to bring her home.
Can someone tell me if she is not vomiting and has no diarrhea and she is eating, what are they doing for her that I cannot do here at home? I would rather her be here so that I can watch her. If she got sick again, the vet's office is only 1/2 mile from my house - couldn't I run her back real quick (it is a 24-hour manned hospital)?
Anyway, everybody do what you do - say a prayer, send good vibes our way, whatever your choice is! Just wish us back to good health!
sick of that crap!!!
Kids aren't safe anywhere.....Just this weekend in sunny Atlanta we have an grandfather kill his 6yo grandson and wife over a watermelon and a guy with a shotgun go in his backyard and threaten to blow his brains out!!! There are tons more other stories about people getting shot and everything here, it is common.... My husband uses guns to hunt and that is what they should be used for.... THE SHOOTING NEEDS TO STOP!!!! I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE GETTING SHOT or THREATENING TO SHOOT PEOPLE!!!
that's kind of sick. For some men it is
much more fun when it is forbidden or has to be done in a hidden way. That's also the reason for having affairs behind the wife's back.
Heard that also. I didn't even know he was sick.

Too weird, too sick. Nuff said (nm)

To the person with the sick puppy
Immediately check out this list. The brands you have been giving the puppy are on this list. Thousands of dogs and cats have died from renal failure.
If you go outside in the cold with a wet head you'd get sick...sm
the principal at my daughter's school thought that was still true until I showed him studies that showed it doesn't make you sick, it only gives you a cold head. I wouldn't let a child go outside if it's below 20 with a wet head but I do have a child that hates blow drying her hair and doesn't mind a cold head, so I leave it up to her when it's above 20 outside and she gets a shower before school.
Wonderful news about my sick cat
I posted on here about thinking my older girl had a stroke. She had lost her hearing and her vision and stumbling around, rambling through the house. Not once did I give up on her. I stroked her and told her I loved her- took her to the veterinarian and told him I thought stroke. He gave her injection of penicillin and steroid and said sometimes animals pull through with that. Now I wonder if perhaps she could have had a blue tailed lizard for lunch as found out highly poisonous for kittycats. Also read inner ear problem could cause same symptoms. Let me say this, Monday when I took her to the veterinarian really not sure which way she would go, thought could wake up the next day and her not be with me anymore. I did NOT give up and now she is hearing me- ran from the vacuum this morning and coming straight to me- her eyes are not blank anymore and she is seeming to track better. There is always hope where there is life.
I know - sick sense of humor but...
Movie I laughed out loud to most recently was Hostel. Way creepy movie/plot but still just couldn't stop myself when that girl's eyeball was bouncing off her cheek.
Definitely - Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Road to Wellsville, O Brother, Shrek
Are you a Christian? If so, you should be ashamed of yourself. I am so sick of sm
women, especially women, who degrade other women, especially when they are a Christian. I swear, if it weren't for my strong relationship with Christ who draws me to Him every single day, I would hate everything Christian because of those who judge and throw stones and think they are so much better than everyone else. Let me tell you - I am a Christian. The only different between me and the atheist (I used to be one) is that by the Grace of God I am saved now. That is it. I am no better, not one bit, than anyone else. You will never win anyone over with statements like the one you just made.
This post just makes me so sick nm

I'm sick & husband is being mean...just so tired of it
I am sick with a bad cold or maybe the flu, not sure, so I know I am more emotional because of that...but my husband made breakfast this morning, waffles, and called the kids, then after they started eating said, "oh, do you want to come eat?" So I went in the kitchen, and he had melted butter for the waffles, but he had left the paper wrapper in the bowl of melted butter. Without thinking I just took it out and put it on a napkin to throw away, the tablecloth is plastic and it was on a napkin so it is not like it was going to hurt anything. He started fussing, "why did you have to take that out?" I said I didn't know, didn't really think about it. "Well I was going to take it out after we were finished eating, I didn't want a greasy spot all over the table." I said, " I put it on a napkin, there is no grease on the table so don't worry yourself over it." So then he said, "well why couldn't you just leave it in there? I was going to take it out later." I said, "it just looked kind of gross sitting in there, I'm sorry I took it out." Then I went to get a fork and noticed the bowl he had used to mix the pancakes was sitting on the counter - he had used all the mix in the bowl, just still had some left on the edges, so again, without thinking (I'm a mom and a wife, it's just second nature to me), I took the bowl and put it in the sink and filled it with water. He yelled at me, "why did you do that?" I said, "I am just soaking it so it will be easier to clean." "Well, I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO TOUCH IT!!" So I said, "Nevermind, I don't want to eat." I put my plate on the counter and left the room and started crying...I guess because I am sick I just can't take things as easily. So I was in the next room crying and he says, "why do you have to make such a big deal about everything?" and I said, "why do you have to be mean all the time - you don't have to talk to me like that, it is unacceptable for you to talk to me like that." So now he is mad because in front of the kids, I told him the way he talked to me was unacceptable. But I don't want them to see him act like that and think it is alright, so I am going to continue to say it is wrong. I dont want my daughter to think it is ok for her to be talked to that way or for my son to think he should talk to women like that. My husband's father has always talked to his mother that way and still does. They just had their 50th Anniversary, so he thinks it is ok...it is NOT ok. I am not going to just sit back and smile about it like she does. And that makes him soooo angry!
He had rented a room for us for New Year's Eve - but he has been so mean lately I don't want to go. It was expensive and is nonrefundable. I don't see the point of going there trying to act like we are so in love when we are not, so now I told him I am not going to go. Why torture myself being locked in a room with him for all that time??
He is the same one I wrote about a while back who scraped up my good cake pan and who thinks he may be an alcoholic. This past Friday, he took the day off from work, went hunting all day, was supposed to be back about 7...called me at 9:15 and said he drank too much and was not driving home. I was glad he wasn't going to drive drunk of course, but why does he have to keep going out getting drunk? He goes on several day-long hunting trips and can't call, sometimes he says because of no cell phone service and sometimes he says because he was so drunk he couldn't see to dial the number.
Anybody have stress bother them and then get sick?
Ever since I have been stressed over a certain situation in transcription, and my family's budget I have become extremely tired and it is really hard to get my line count. Every day as the pressure builds regarding this my line count gets lower, no matter how hard I try. Anybody in this situation or ever been, I'd appreciate advice. I am trying stress busters, exercising, reading books, taking time to go outside, but nothing is working.
Every time I sit down to type, I just get more and more worried and I can't produce! It is like my heart is going on strike against the position I have because there are problems with the situation and it makes my money situation even worse. My husband is very understanding but this has got to stop. I want to feel good about my job again and my production. If you say get another job, I understand about that, but what about until the other job starts, what do I do? Arrrggggg. I know life is no picnic but it could at least provide piece of mind so I can do my job! Thanks in advance for any and every suggestion or advice. It will be well appreciated
my friend in Pitts PA is also sick now...
hope you feel better soon!!!
and like I said, many folks here in Florida are ill........I'm not, but I'm keeping my distance too...
It's awful when children are sick
I hope he feels better soon.
