I frequent the faith board

In Reply to: I can compare anything I like and I like, no love, animals - Unbelievable
and I just want to say I agree with you 100%. This woman was irresponsible and is a perfect example of what's wrong with this country. ME, ME, ME it's all about ME. No matter that her poor old parents can't even enjoy a retirement because they have once again been forced into parenthood, but now she wants other people to take from the mouths of truly needy children (and animals!) and give to her brood.
Unfortunately, in saying all this, it is true that the children are innocent and will need to be cared for. I have never had children, so I won't pretend to know how this should be done, but obviously this woman has some psychological issues that need to be dealt with.
And kudos to you for starting an animal rescue! I would love to do that one day, but for now I just give strays a home until I can find them a forever home!

frequent urination
Have you had your sugar checked?

Not everyone responds to emails, so you shouldn't get too distressed yet. Give it more time girl... like someone said especially around the holidays, even if you did priority mail. If it's just regular old snail mail then it could take a lot longer. The thing about how it is frustrating he hasn't responded, of COURSE it is!!! and it's rude. and I would leave that as a warning to others in the feedback, just that there was no response. Maybe he just knows he sent it and is not worried about it and is "too busy"... you never know.
As a frequent massage recipient....sm
You'll more than likely love the massage and how relaxed you'll feel afterwards. They'll find sore muscles that you had no idea were sore - but having the kinks worked out will make you feel tons better. Be sure to drink a lot of water after the massage to help flush out the impurities they release from the muscles.
I do leave my undies on.
Oh Eunice. That's really a shame. But I must say as a frequent
sufferer of insomnia myself, also mostly due to pain issues, I would be so eleated to get 5 to 6 hours of continuous sleep. I can't recall the last time that occurred. Why not follow your physician's recommendation regarding increasing the Pamelor, and if about 1 month you are still displeased with your sleep pattern, request a trial of another medication. There are plenty of them out there. Like I mentioned, trazodone is often prescribed as the initial line of therapy, most likely because it is non-addicting. If your PCP is prescribing the sleep aid, I would mention the problem also to your physician who is treating your fibromyalgia. He or she may be more up on what helps insomniac patients who have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. If you want to discuss this further, feel free to post a message asking for my email address, as I have alot of experience and knowledge regarding sleep aids and could give you the ins and out if you so desire. Take care.
To PAMT down below regarding frequent urination sm
I, too, have to pee alot, and I get so tired of it. I think i'm going to the doctor after the kids go back to school. Sometimes I "leak" a little. I'm only 36 and I don't want to have bladder problems! I do love drinking water, and i don't know if it could be from possibly drinking so much water. Sometimes i even feel a little pressure while doing "bedroom activities", and will even have to stop in the middle and go to the bathroom. I normally don't have pain, but the sensation of having to go and sometimes pressure. So no, you aren't alone.
Frequent Yahoo'er and never any (sm)
problems; emails or otherwise. This place below, however, needs serious work.
Is she losing weight or having frequent
urination? I know from a friend of mine that these are some symptoms. Also, my friend had blurred vision to the point she was afraid to drive. She went to an ophthalmologist for whom she used to work. He suspected diabetes and checked her sugar. It was over 600 in the office. She has seen been an insulin dependent diabetic. She was losing weight rapidly. You are just being a good daughter. Keep an eye on things for her.
Anyone ever have very frequent urination but no other symptoms. What a pain this is. nm
:
Pugmom..the ED checks records and will know that you are not a frequent flyer....sm
And believe me, there are some that are there like every other day.
Something else you might want to do too( I have typed urology both adult and peds for 19 years now and have lots of hints LOL) is to walk as much as possible, drink LOTS of water, and perhaps cranberry juice. The walking is supposed to help the stone get moving, the liquids are to help flush it out once it starts moving. The cranberry juice should help with the start of an infection.
Some people though, never pass their stone(s) and have not one iota of pain and suffering once the initial diagnosis is made.
I am so glad to hear that you are doing better. Myself and others were worried for you. Glad you are back.
Re: Faith Help.
Hello,
Though I have always been a believer (grandfather was a minister), I learned to accept "faith." Faith is not an organized religious system, but in fact just knowing in your heart to trust God at all times..for everything. If you are an atheist, I, too, question why he began dating you. I dated atheists in the past, and it will not work; however, believing in God is another thing. Maybe you have not reached that point where you can learn to "trust" God and have "faith." No, I don't attend church regularly, but do have a lot of "faith" as I have been dealt with by God on this issue. It is truly a matter of "real" belief..just knowing that God is "real." I have been proven to several times in my life that God is real, and that is where my faith in God stemmed.
As for you and your man, if you love him and believe there is no one else to fulfill your life, and he feels the same about you, why would you question him now? Why would you want to break-up? Just have enough faith to know that it will work out in the long run. God is love, and love with overpower all things. If you go to church with him and search out the "faith" not in people but in God, then God will show you that He is real. :) Hope this helps, and hope all things work out for you two.
and some of us are not of that faith too...
We should consider everybody, not just the Christians, but really wouldn't that be the Christian thing to do, to consider EVERYBODY in this life?
*just my take on things*
I am not religious, rather spiritual though and considerate and caring for everybody always and very compassionate. 
I truly have faith and
totally agree with everyting you said. We have a wonderful church family and I do have faith that whatever happens is totally in God's plan.
Faith Hill
I was pleased to see a genuine reaction. When they smile and clap for the other person, we all know it's phony - each of them thinks they will win.
As far as Carrie Underwood winning the award, I agree with Faith - WHAT???? She isn't in the same league with the other nominees and had no business being nominated. Just because someone dreams of some thing doesn't mean they deserve to have it. Being the most popular, which is what American Idol is all about, does not mean you have a shred of talent. The song leaders in my local church have more talent than Carrie Underwood.
Going to see Tim and Faith tonite
My 19 year old great nephew got tickets for us to see Tim and Faith. It was out of the blue and he said it was cuz I am always doing things for him and his brothers, his Dad is my nephew and they are his kids so great nephew. Made me feel good but it is hard to accept as I know he really could not afford them with going to college and working part-time. Hard for me to accept but easy for me to give. Anyway, going out for some fun tonight. Told him I would buy dinner. He is coming by early to put my new BBQ together and then out we go.
blind faith is EXACTLY what...
God expects. You got it right, believe what you cannot see. Have faith that God will show you the way...IF YOU BELIEVE...you must believe and have complete and total faith in the Lord that he will sustain you. It's not easy, of course, but it must be done...according to God...
Women of Faith
 Hi, Country MT - I love WOF. Have been to 2. Really can't pick a favorite; they are all great! Sounds like you are a Christian also - oh, no - will I get in trouble for using that word? By your name, I'm assuming you live in middle of nowhere; I do too. Tiny, tiny town in IL, 400 people max. I love this board. Gives me an outlet when bored. I really should be on working toward the bonus, but it is Saturday, will get to it sometime today. 
Anybody see the Faith Hill freak-out on...
I didn't see the show, but saw the video on, what is it, utube or youtube? Anyhow, I googled it and the video came up...can't tell if it's for real or not! If it is, she's a sore loser! 
I think Faith Hill is over-rated
I never did get the big buzz about her. If she weren't married to Tim no one would have ever heard of her. She's an opportunist and looks like a gawky dodo bird. I'm glad she finally got busted for being the insincere phony she truly is.
I agree... but that's where faith kicks in
My biggest fear in the world is losing someone I love... and sometimes it hits me that something could happen to me in a split second... accidents happen all the time... but I can't live my life like that I wouldn't be living right!
Another good faith based one is Thin Within
you can Google Thin Within on the web also. It focuses on how you feel about yourself. After going through it for the first time I was able to separate ME and how I felt about ME from how I felt about the extra pounds I carry.
I have avoided Weigh Down because I have some issues with some beliefs and practices of the founders, but I have heard it is a well designed and good program.
Faith Hill's only talent is hitchin' her proverbial wagon
She has no more talent than Carrie does. As a matter of fact, Carrie's better and didn't need to marry a big name to break into show business.
Haley and I think she sang If My Heart Had Wings by Faith Hill. She is okay but -sm-
Sabrina deserved to stay. I don't think Antonella should have made it to the top 24. I think the producers had to know about her background and put her on to give the show more attention (not that it needed any). I agree with the poster from the other day that only two of the winners deserved to win, Carrie and Kelly although I have not purchased anything of Taylors. I have purchased cds by Clay, Kimberly Locke and Josh Gracin and they are all excellent. I even purchased a short cd by Carmen Rasmussen that wasn't too bad. Rubin and Fantasia were not my type of singers. I am sure they have a lot of fans to get where they are but they were not my favorites and I would probably not buy any of their music.
Could someone tell me if there is a Christianity board as well as a prayer board (sm)
or are they one in the same? I have some faith related questions, but don't want to post on the prayer board again if it is specifically for prayer requests. I do not see a Christianity board listed. Thanks so much.
Main board, gab board, company, etc, just like here,
x
naw - that was the old board that did that, aka the 'other' board!
why was it here and not on the Politics board anyway?
Is that board still available?
Thought I had it in favorites, but takes me to the main board . . . I do not have board options to the left though. Anyway, the Gab board is to gab about anything not MT, so I'm sure she's fine here, but I had been trying to check out the WAHM board yesterday and couldn't get there, so just thought it funny you brought it up today.
a new board??
Oh, I love it. We can yak about anything here? I'' be back!
RE: Gab board
Sorry about that. . .I'm new to this site. I'll take my questions out to the Company Board. I might get some additional advice there. 
I don't think many on this board ... sm
I posted on scrapbooking one time and didn't get any response. I love to scrapbook and I am about to finish up one that is a thank you gift for the family that we stayed with last year on vacation in Colorado.
I am limited in what I can spend on it so I have to depend on a paper cutter, scissors and I love corner punches. I think I have seen the machine that you are asking about but I really don't know anything about it.
The question I posted back quite a while ago is concerning scrapbook programs on the computer. Do you know anything about them? I think I would like to use one of those programs but I have not found anyone as of yet who is knowledgeable about them. I was trying to research that one day through Google and found this website. You might find the answer to your question on here: twopeasinabucket.com This is a scrapbooking website and I found it quite interesting although I didn't have a lot of time to spend looking for the answer to my question. Good luck!
About using this board -
Does anybody know why, especially in the replies, when I click on the subject sometimes I just get one letter or a mark, or there just isn't anything there? Am I doing something wrong?
I think there is only one Jan on the board,
so you can always skip her posts if you don't want to read them.
When somebody is hurting, it is only natural for a caring person to offer whatever they have that could help. Every Christian on earth was once a nonchristian, and somebody led them to Christ, perhaps by offering them help or hope in a time of need.
Nonchristians of all kinds are also free to offer whatever help or hope they have to offer.
I saw this on another board I was on
and it was said that Walter Reed will not pass out cards made out to "A Recovering American Soldier." So you might want to check before you do it.
Thanks, JMR, we need more like you on this board!
Thanks so much, will copy your info down. MERRY Christmas, and thanks for your positive and kind input!!!
what other old board?
.
What other board?
nt
You don't pay for the other board....
the best thing about it is nobody is nasty towards each other, no name calling if you have a different opinion about something, not much whining and complaining about how horrible someone's job is, etc. A nice breath of fresh air over there. Been on the political board here lately? If you want to see nastiness, pettiness and childish behaviour, hop on over there for a bit.
Where is the other board?
I would like to communicate with some nice people.
Can you tell me where the other board is too?
Thank you.
How many on the board
are finding it hard to make their house payment, car payment or credit card payment?
No you do not need the board, but you do need
xx
this board
I would liken this board to a bus stop. Or talking to someone in line. Americans love to do that. Mindless chit chat, no politics, religion, or anything too personal. I hope you are not scarred, but virtually (pun intended) no one feels super anonymous here. You are okay, just remember you are at the bus stop and these are not your sisters....
This board isn't a job interview.
This is a place to kick back, relax, and vent. I don't see this as a place where people have to behave professionally, although it'd be nice if they behaved more politely.
There's a time and place, and what you see is appropriate for this place. I'd expect to see professionalism on the job search boards.
There are all kinds of ways to get work done. You're right that it's a privilege to be able to work from home. You do it in your manner, and others do it in theirs. As long as the output is professional quality and timely, the methods are as individual and as varied as the people.
That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it!
Why is there so much assuming on this board
because once you assume you know what you are talking about, usually wrong as you are in this case. I took in my stepgrandchildren, 3 of them, 8, 13 and 15 and raised them for 3 years. Their mother on crack, their father in prison and they went around their real grandmother's home and she sold dope and illegal alcohol from her home. I went to their school, middle and grammer, endlessly. I saw things I never saw as I was growing up, so disrespectful to authority figures. The mother took son to crack house with her, kids lucky to eat 1 meal a day when not living with me. So instead of telling me I don't know, think I have probably lived it. I doubt all the kids getting the diagnosis of attention deficit really fit that category. Oh, tell me I don't know about that either, not so because a neighbor of mine used to get a check and had her son diagnosed just to get a check. Get your head out of the sand.
On another thread on this board....
someone made the comment about giving girls a false sense of security and not getting PAPs and physicals because they got the vaccine. That was something I hadn't thought about previously.
I was talking about this with a friend of mine and we got on the subject of DES that was given to prevent miscarriages and preterm labor in the 50s and 60s and the side effects that came from it. I googled DES and the one website has a copy of an old ad that states "recommended for routine prophylaxis in ALL pregnancies" with a picture of a smiling baby above the statement. We all know how that turned out!
States have made all kinds of vaccines mandatory for admittance to kindergarten, but there are ways around it, such a religious exemption. I have another friend whose kids have had NONE of their childhood immunizations. I'm not saying I agree with anything that drastic, but her kids are in school.
Anything BUT transcription on the Gab board, please. NM

anyone who has to come to a public board like this
Anyone who has to go on a public board/forum and brag on and boast about ANYTHING- ( about A MAN, no less *L*).....just makes most posters question the credibility of such posters. Anyone who is truly happy....has no need to type all this on a public forum....nor to hang out on one....
the hubby *put you on a pedestal* so now you can reach the keyboard....*lol* -
Now really, all the nasty, antagonistic posters, and in this particular thread, should get off their mommy's computers and go outside and play because from my view, it's a spectacularly gorgeous day outside
*laughs*
prayer board
Do you have a line right up above your post that says "Mental Health Board - Autoimmune Board - Prayer Request" ? For some reason I can only see this when I'm on the Gab Board.
Yes "Gab Board" is on the right but
I still don't see what you see. I feel like an id!ot. I have seen the prayer board before and have even visited it but it is not here now.
The board moderator
Frankly, I think the moderator of this board does a very good job considering the many posts on a vast variety of topics, and with numerous personalities posting them. If I or my friend on this board would be doing anything that is unacceptable or inappropriate we would have been told. I am quite sure of that.
Why this person continues to make an issue of our conversations about the beauty of animals and the love we share for them and our animals is totally beyond the reach of what I can understand. Frankly, the last post two days after the first insult is an indication to me that it is ongoing. If anyone needs to be told, it is the one who won't leave us or the matter alone. We have done absolutely nothing wrong and have said absolutely nothing inappropriate. I am tired of the issue. It was ridiculous two days ago. No one is forced to participate in this board or made to continue to read what is supposed to be so boring and meaningless. What is meaningless is this constat back and forth over something that is not her business.
To my friend (one of them) on this board
Hey, hi. Actually I was going to ask you yesterday to email me directly concerning my CD. If you would not mind, you could give me your address and I would love to mail you one with a copy of the lyrics. I am not doing this because of any other reason, and would love to hear from you on the board as well, but I know we cannot exchange names/addresses on the board. If that sound like a plan you do just that. Have a wonderful weekend and kiss YOU KNOW WHO for me . better not mention a DOG . . .
