If I got rid of my land line, how on earth would I be able to call my cell to find it!

In Reply to: those of you that have gone to no - land line
LOL! I misplace my cell all the time. I use my land line to call my cell so that I can find it.

My cell is clearer & more reliable than my land line,
I realize we still need those 2 things - the P.O. & land phone lines, but you'd think that by now the two would be a whole lot BETTER than they are.
We just got rid of our line land and use only cells now. nm

Got rid of our land line this summer.
I just added another cell number to my plan too so the kids can take one when they go to practice, friends houses, etc.
I got one to Land's End but can't find anything I like.
And boy, are their prices expensive. I'll be lucky to find one shirt or one pair of pants. We also got gift cards to Home Depot and Cabela's. Spent the Home Depot one already so I now have new tile in the bathroom. Haven't even looked at Cabela's yet.
Even higher bill w/3 cells & a land line, but sound quality & customer service are good.

Can you do an anonymous call rejection on the cell? nm

Call the consumer line at
WSBtv radio station- they have people there during the day hours answering questions- tell them Ms. Glink had topic on the other day about nursing and could you have her website. I myself checked on the website for ThinkGlinkcom and did not find anything about the subject- but call the hospitals and ask if they have schools, find out from financial person at school, just ask them about outside payments for schooling. Step up and go for it!
No I listened to the 911 call on line
The caller was talking to the 911 operator and then spoke to the doctor while on the phone with the 911 person. Anyone can listen to it. It is on the internet. I heard the same recording via TV as well. The doctor did not make the call.
You first should call and find
out exactly what you will have to have to get it to work. You are saying have new TV with digital. I heard that is not enough. Why spend money on having an antenna put up if it will not work. Does that make sense to you? This has been broadcasted for the past 6 months at least, I saw it each and every day. What is so hard about calling first to see if antenna would do it?

Um, he approached her about the land
he physically went over there to pay the rent. She made it a point to stay away apparently. So who is chasing who here? LOL :)
Living in la-la land
I cannot believe in this time that anyone would leave their door open for anyone to enter. It does not seem like you either hear/read the news or know about things that go on around your little world. Why invite danger by opening your door to the world? In my town some children molested by strangers coming into their rooms in the middle of the night- oh by the way, not only their doors left open but some windows not locked of a night. I read a post on here where a man showed up in one persons home through their garage door. My home is just as secure as I can get it. I love and cherish my life, my hubby's and my pets as well. What is someone other than someone you know comes in 1 day- then what? Good luck with a dangerous situation.

11 years and your still living on his land
and talking about moving on to your mothers land. Here's a thought, buy land from him, or buy land from her and then its YOUR land. Better yet, move away completely and stand on your own two feet.
About your fellow land-dweller
She could easily put up her own mail box right next to yours. As long as she clearly labels it with her name, the postal carrier will separate your mail from hers. That's how theya do it out here in my neck o' the woods anyhows....

Preserving planet earth
I've begun my own conservation program this week in honor of earth day. I'm starting small...bought my first fluoroscent light and it's not too bad. REplacing my kitchen cleaning products with things like baking soda, whie vinegar, lemon juice and club soda as well as borax. These can be used for various things around the kitchen/bathroom and are much cheaper than store-bought chemical things. Not much but it makes me feel good that I'm doing my share little by little. For simple ideas do a Google search. There are plenty of sites that come up with simple suggestions that we can all do and benefit from.
Happy Earth Day..we should do this EVERYDAY!
We should be caring about planet (mother) earth EVERYDAY and not just on April 22nd.........
If we do not, someday there will no longer be a planet Earth......
Probably here on earth longer than you, but what I am talking about
is the fact that young females can have WITHOUT taking antibiotics. The post above me seems like it was set in concrete this was the problem and fabric softners. There are so many scare tactics here in the US and it just continues and everyone things the sky is falling, oh my!
I liked show and her, She is funny and as down to earth

Grandparents are Heaven on Earth
I have no kids so can only give you a viewpoint of how my grandparents shaped my life. I grew up very close (personally) to my grandparents (grandma was my second mom). My grandparents (moms side) lived up the road from us (about a 5 min walk with an open field between us). In the mornings we would walk outside and if she was out we would yell "hello up there" and grandma would yell back "hello down there". She took care of my sister and I during the day while mom worked. We went everywhere with her every day (hairdresser, butcher, stores, errands, church activities, her friends house, etc). She taught us how to whistle with a blade of grass, play "here is the church & here is the steeple, open the doors and see all the people" with our hands. We ate every Sunday supper with them and then she and grandpa moved the living room furniture and taught us how to polka to Lawrence Welk. We also ate there often during the week. Once a week we would spend the night at their house. Grandpa had a lawnmower repair and sales business but anytime I was having trouble in school, he would come in and after supper sit down and help me (mostly with math), but he didn't even think twice about not helping. He was the most unselfish person in the whole world. When I was feeling down about my grade on a report card or test (I was a C & D student, occasionally a B and very rare an A) he would ask me if I did the best that I could and I said I tried really hard but I just didn't understand. He told me as long as I tried the hardest I could he was proud of me. We grew up in the country and g'ma taught us about wild flowers, quilting, and other country type stuff. During the winter we would have sled parties at her house for my girl scout troop and she would bring out hot cocoa with mini marshmallows. Just a couple years ago my best childhood friend was telling me she had just been thinking about that sled party and my grandma bringing us the hot cocoa, and I just have so many wonderful life memories the list would go on and on. She died when I was 16 (30 years ago), grandpa died a few years ago. I miss them so much it still hurts. My dad's grandparents lived 15 minutes from us and we spent every Sunday afternoon with them and when I was old enough to drive I would go up on my own during the weekdays and sit at the table and talk and talk with grandma for hours. I miss them both so much too. I think grandparents are the most wonderful gift a child could have. I was blessed to have mine live so close to us. They spoiled us rotten and we loved it!
Oh how I dream of being young again and having my grandparents to talk to. I'm now 48 and live alone with husband. All my grandparents and mom are gone, dad lives across the country and I see him once every 3 years. I sure do miss them all. I hope all kids have a chance to be close to their grandparents the way I was.
My mom (when she was alive) and dad all have fond memories of their parents (they both told me they had the best parents anywhere).
So the only way I can sum it up is that "Grandparents are Heaven on Earth".
Earth Quake...NC Indiana
I live in north central Indiana, and slept right through it. When my sister got to work her boss was talking about it. What was it rated? I haven't heard.

You all are really lacking a lot to have this man rule your lives. If you were a man I would tell you to man up but both of you lack a backbone.

My friend has you beat... she paid $35,000 for a small piece of land
and a home 30 years ago; she just sold it for $375,000, clear profit; she and her DH paid it off last year and now are reaping the benefits.
Earth in proportion to Sun, other solar systems
http://www.rense.com/general72/size.htm
We had an astronomy presentation for our Girl Scout troop Friday by one of the girls' dad. The above web site is just a few pics of the size of the Earth in proportion to the rest of the universe that we know about. I never knew this. We really are like the speck in Horton hears a Who!!
why on Earth does the guy mowing his lawn at night
not sure why you live in suburbia if you can't handle it. Sounds like you need to be in the country!!
why on god's green earth are 8 jumbo crayons
a pack of 8 regular sized crayons is 2 for $1. I can get a pack of TWENTY FOUR crayons for 17 cents. But a pack of 8 large sized is $1.50 a pack at the cheapest. I found them at winn dixie for 2.99 a pack. I need 2 packs. Six dollars for 16 crayons?? That's highway robbery...geez

Hayseed, I love your down-to-earth way of putting things
My beliefs are similar to yours - I do believe that their is something within us that lives on, but I don't know in what form or how. I have studied many religions and I think there is some truth in almost all of them, but none of them have a corner on THE truth - if there is sich an animal.

Find a lawyer, find out where you would stand - sm
in the event of a divorce/separation, regarding custody, house, etc. Custody was my main concern as well since I lied on numerous occasions about the finances. Where I am I was told that would not factor in to the custody at all. I can prove that I am my kids caregiver 90% of the time, I ferry they around everywhere, help with homework, get ready for school, meet at busstop, etc. I could also point out my husband is an alcoholic, self treats his depression with alcohol instead of getting proper medical treatment, has threatend to kill himself (or me) numerous times (though he always says he was joking and did not mean it.....that is his standard answer to everything, or that he never said that). Now I do love him enough to deal with all that because deep down inside my DH is full of it, luckily for me, he has never followed through on anything he says he is going to do. But I thought my confession would be the straw that broke it all and send him over the edge. He still is angry with me, I am sure he will be for a long time, but is keeping it together pretty well, though he has said the stress was going to kill him, now he know how I felt I guess. I am sorry your husband is such a smuck. I feel like a dog sometimes with the sex demands, have to do it the night before he goes out of town....he will be traveling a lot for work for the next 3-4 months, which I am more than glad about, much calmer here then, though it gets tiring for me but as he is not really helping much right now it really won't be much of a change. As for yours going on 5 day weekends.....have you considered having him followed, sounds like there may be some infidelity afoot, and if so that would strengthen your case in the event of a divorce and custody I would think. Sounds a bit fishy going out until 1 a.m. and his frequent trips. My DH fishes too, but he goes 2 miles from here with one of our male neighbors, they shoot the breeze and he gets to unwind some which I encourage. Very rare weekends with a buddy of his, I am talking once every 2 years, which again is fine with me. Start keeping track of all you do, when he is home, where he supposedly goes, with whom, etc. He cannot show he will be a responsible dad if he is never there or never interacts with his own kids. My DH would probably suggest I take our older daughter and he the younger, spliting them up, he has the same perception, the oldest is mine, the youngest is his. Our younger daughter is much easier to deal with, our older daughter drives him nuts and she is only 10. My younger one (8) knows something has been going one though, and worries we will divorce, which she does not want. She is very perceptive for her years. I hope that if you do go the divorce route, which would actually probably be best in your situation, that it all works out for you and you get your fair share of assets, etc. Make sure before you do anything like that you have all your ducks in a row, so talk to divorce lawyer. I talked to one for 45 minutes, cost me $160 but was worth it to set my mind at ease. Good luck.
I only use a cell. It got to
where I figured I was paying for a home phone for no reason, as most people were calling on our cells anyway!
Actually I am considering just using cell...sm
I am considering the cell phone as my primary phone. My husband also has one and there is no use really in having a house phone and cell phones. My cell talks perfectly fine here. Bellsouth offers DSL now w/out a phone line too. So I may very well do that.
Thanks for your advice. :)
I have Verizon cell and
they do not offer any discount at all. I pay $180 a month for both.
I had it on my cell phone too! lol

How many of you use only a cell phone? sm
We're going totally wireless in our house next week after our alarm company converts our system to a radio one. The cell companies in our area have finally gotten the offers down to where it's cheaper to go cellular exclusively than pay a cell and regular phone bill. What about you?
cell phone
My family and I (husband and two teenagers) all have our own cell phones. In a dire emergency of no power, our car will accommodate an attachable adaptor for the cell phones to recharge. It made things simpler, and no extra added bill from a phone company. It has been this way for over three years now.
cell phone
I have 4 phones on my bill. We pay $9.00/month extra for unlimited texting for my son, otherwise our bill would probably be that high. Our bill with 4 phones and extra for the texting is $90.
Buy a home of my own - not a palace, but more of a smallish home on a large piece of land. (nm)

What is your cell phone co.? I'm shopping around sm
Our family uses TracFone. My daughter is trying to convince me to go to something different. I need to keep costs down, but would like any info on something that includes texting and some free anytime calls. What are your experiences and what does it cost you a month for a family plan? Thanks.
