because most of the time you are not going to want to lift it down. If they still have pictures of the tablets, that was a handy feature in case you ever find an unpackaged tablet in your house and can't identify it. :oD

Those quotation marks and apostrophes don't show up on this board, do they!
Also, forgot to mention that the Prius is a whopping 90% less emissions than a regular combustion engine. That's a plus. The electric engine supplements the gas and so the car never loses ground going up hills, great pick up. And don't worry about the rumor that says the batteries eventually die and need pricey replacement. That's not true. There are several individual cells that are not at all expensive to replace and should last many, many miles. There are lots of older Prius on the road now that are going strong after 200,000 miles on the road with not even one cell replacement, much less the entire battery system. They are THE standard for hybrid design right now.
You can find out more about them at the dealer or by googling. The tech-geeks really like the car and put out lots of detailed information on the internet about the Prius.
this is funny *lol*.......el....ya know the rest

Good. She is no better than the rest
of us, but she thinks she is. Isn't she 26 years old??? GROW UP. GEEZ. She is just getting too much attention and SHAME ON HER PARENTS. They are enalbing her. 45 days. GREAT. She better not get out again.
Her visitors can bring her magazines and books, or maybe she cannot read. LOL

I can't believe nobody could possibly believe maybe this man just has a kind heart and saw a woman about to give birth ALONE, who's maybe not in the best of situations, and he was able to help.
There are kind people in the world, and really they have known this woman for a decade, there is a friendship there.
My husband doesn't consult me on purchases, nor do I consult him, we have separate accounts, we make our own money to use as we wish. I can assume this couple is the same way, since the OP had to check HIS checkbook to even know what he spent.
The stylist was lucky to have a customer with a heart.
The rest of the story . . .
I took him the stuff as a thank you for his time and because he looked like death warmed over (found out later he'd pulled 16 hours, off for five, and called back to that intersection). Actually, when he came back with flowers I was shocked. I figured his main agenda was to talk me out my panties since his girlfriend was on a cruise or something. I had just come out of a 14-year marriage that went from good to bad to downright ugly. The last thing I wanted (or felt I deserved) was attention from a decent man. I said thank you for the flowers but I can't accept them. I would put water out for a dog on a day like that. No big deal. I declined his offer to go out and he persisted. I figured he was turned on by a challenge and I would stop this right quick. I told him I was fresh out of a bad marriage and that I like my men like my cats--neutered. Well, he had a thing or two to say to me. He said he simply wanted to take me to dinner for my kindness in giving a snack, he wasn't trying to get in my pants, and he sure as hell wasn't asking to marry me (God help the poor SOB who ever did ask me is what he said). Well, then I felt like a hateful shrew so I apologized and agreed to meet him that Saturday in a public restaurant. We had a very nice time. He gave me his number and said call when you feel like it and I hope you will share your number with me if you feel comfortable. No pressure. He became my best friend and true partner.
Thank you for sharing the rest of
the story. It just proves there are really decent people out there, but sometimes it is difficult to trust. I am the same way. I am so glad things worked out the way they did for you!
Do not know much what is going on in the rest of the world, outside US........nm

there is really no bed rest anymore -
I went home from the hospital 12 hours after my son was born and had no problems whatsoever. I was at Wal-Mart shopping that night because the doctor told me it was good to start walking and just not to overdo it.
I don't remember there being any pain after he was born, just soreness all over really.
Not the pedal foot!!! arg
I dropped a HUGE heavy glass cooking dish on my pedal foot, actually knocked it off the stove onto my foot. Fortunately it didn't break but holy freaking crap does my foot hurt. I'm sure my foot isn't broken but the whole area that got hit is now a nice shade of black. I am not ambidextrous with my feet! lol. Kay...done with my pity party.
Did it help your foot swelling too? (sm)
Because I have that too. And I get so sleepy I can barely stay awake!
With foot & mouth going around, I'd
call the answering service number and ask the MD on call if it can wait.
If they were just clear blisters I'd guess it was a contact dermatitis, but the blood would make me act on this.
LOL!! Should be dog food (not foot!!!) nm

claw foot
Same thing happened to me - my sister wanted it desperately, but they got rid of it before we could ask for it. Absolutely the most comfortable tub I have ever had. The rolled edge is perfect for you head/neck, deep enough for lots of bubbles. Those were the days!
I was in the same position until I put my foot down.
Stopped doing all the little things they liked. One by one, they wondered what was wrong with me. I finally said they could at least pick up their things. Husband cleaned the kitchen that night and the dining room floor. You have got to put your foot down and stick to it! Don't feel bad for them, you help them by not doing so much and taking care of yourself. Then, they will realize and pitch in. It does not happen overnight and you may have to grin and bear a messy house for a while. But don't see it, and do something for yourself instead, get out of the house, read a book, take a walk every time you feel bad for them and then do for you. It works, speaking from experience. But you have to stick to it! You will feel better. Try it you will see!
foot tattoo
It did hurt, but it was the kind of hurt that stopped after a bit. I think that the whole top of my foot was pretty numb after the outlining. I will try to upload a pic, but I have never done that so it might not work!
can you put something under the foot pedal to (sm)
raise it up? Is the back fo your leg touching your chair too much? Maybeif you raise up your foot you will get better circulation.
I get toe/foot cramps....
when my potassium is low. When I take my potassium supplement it resolves, so I do believe there is a connection, at least in my case.
Foot problems, anyone?
I do not have diabetes, no Morton's, do not have neuropathy that I am aware of. I have been to orthopedics, podiatrists, etc. and have not gotten any help to now. Both feet have issues. When walking along my right foot will hang in mid air as I should be stepping down on it and that makes me do a double jump so I will not fall. The other foot, left, hurts in toes 3 and 4 and sometimes on the outside of the foot. This sounds silly but had toes painted ( on that left foot) and the other night my darn end of my toenails hurt on those 2 toes. I took the polish off the next day and since then they have felt ok as far as the toenails aching but still having pain in the toes. I am at wits end trying to find a solution for these issues. Does anyone have a suggestion? TIA
foot problem
I had a similar problem about 10 years ago. It turned out to be a Morton's neuroma between my 3rd and 4th toes. Simple day surgery to remove and total pain relief. Very short recovery period required.

My stepmom, rest her soul
used to love to have my child visit (we are talking in 60s/70s and so) as did her mother who visited them quite a bit. She always talked about how my son loved to be around her mother, her mother quilted, broke the beans in the summer as did my son right along with them. The stepmom only in say 14 years or so (they first took him home with them, my dad and his wife when my son less than 6 months old) that my son acted out on her- at a grocery when she had bought him something and he wanted more. She was mortified that he would have done this. She said he never did this again as he got his privilges taken away. The kids now are certainly in a different place then when mine growing up and I think the Man above for allowing me to raise my children then, not now.
So why has most of the rest of world abolished

Rest in peace, Fred!
We just put our 22-year-old cat, Fred, to sleep this evening. He had wasted away from 17 pounds to 5 pounds and was too weak to stand or eat. He was a loving companion for the past 22 years and will be missed dearly.
Rest in peace, Fred. Benny, Gus, and Lily will be waiting in heaven to greet you with open arms!
What a nice response by a nice mom
What a gracious, well-adjusted response to a rude, obviously maladjusted poster--Hard to imagine someone with such an empty life and such a petty spirit that they would take the time to post criticism about a kid's feet! (Some people really have major issues, LOL!)
The foot that hurts is not using the pedal.
The pain is in my left foot, but my right foot uses the pedal. I think if I tried using my left foot on the pedal it would be too painful...
Foot-in-mouth-disease
At one time or another we have all suffered from it. Sometimes, things just pop out of our mouths before we have had a chance to edit them. What was probably a poor attempt at conversation turned out to be an embarrassing situation for both of you. Accept his apology and move on.
Cat foot vs. puppy food
I don't know anything about the Canidae or Felidae brands, but most of what I've read about cat care has said that cats need a lot more protein than dogs, and different nutrients. And cat food might be too rich for dogs. Especially for urinary health, and especially for male cats. I lost a lovely young male cat last year to urinary tract blockage and eventually complete renal failure. Although no one can be entirely sure if it was 100% food-related or not, I feel that it may have been, because my kitty ate ONLY dry food, which isn't good for cats, either. He just didn't like canned food and wouldn't touch it. I also had gotten lazy and occasionally let him eat cheap grocery-store dry cat food, which is too high in minerals that can make them more prone to feline lower urinary tract disorder (FLUTD). Unfortunately he didn't die quickly or inexpensively, either! It was quite an ordeal. So in order to hopefully prevent this tragedy from happening in the future, my new cat now eats ONLY a premium dry cat food (Royal Canin) and gets canned food twice a day, in addition to plenty of fresh water.
Anyway, that's my personal experience, but of course, your best bet is to talk to your veterinarian! :)
I sounds like you have a foot drop. Do you..
sit with your legs crossed a lot? That can cause peroneal nerve palsy, which causes the foot drop.
Thanks! :) I checked out Foot Locker SM
and saw some really good deals on shoes. Also, Macy's is having a 1-day sale tomorrow, and I saw a Nike Hoodie for 19.99! I've been carusing all the websites today! (Abercrombie and Fitch, Old Navy, Macy's, Kohl's, Foot Locker, American Eagle, and E-Bay.) Eeeek!! I'm not getting much work done today. Oh well! Hehehehe. I'm going to have so much fun with this.
Again, thank you to all of you...you've been such a big help.
Big hugs,
Chickadee
Question for the dog lovers - cut pad of foot
My dog cut it's pad probably this past Sunday. He came limping home on Monday morning but by then it wasn't even bleeding. He is used to being outdoors (we live in the country and he can run free) and is about to go crazy because I have kept him either tied up or in the garage to give this time to heal. I have soaked his paw daily in warm salt water and have applied neosporin to it as well. It is looking good and there does not seem to be any infection, swelling it totally gone, and I can manipulate it without it causing pain.
This is on the main part of his foot and it is quite a slice causing a large flap to just kind of hang. A friend who had this similar incident said her vet had her apply ointment and then wrap the pay with masking tape to keep the flap against the paw so that it would heal shut. I have been doing this for the last several days. He will only keep it on there for 5-6 hours and then he'll pull the tape off.
Here's the question - is there some kind of product that I can safely use to "glue" this pad back to his paw? I know in surgical reports I have heard about a surgical adhesive that they use but is there something over-the-counter that I can get for this or even home remedy stuff to try. I hate for him to lose the substantial part of his pad and leave his paw prone to injury with more tender skin. I have been told that I can cut it off but I don't want to do that unless it is a last resort. I tried to "goggle" this subject and came up with a board where it was suggested to someone else for them to just use crazy glue and glue it back in place. That didn't seem quite appropriate! Hopefully someone can help me figure this out!
Your foot is not going to fall off. Now I confess I did not

Pain in foot with my berkies....
I have worn and tried to wear some newer Berkies and what has been a problem before started so much with these had to return. They had a very high arch support which I need the support - maybe this was too high- but my foot felt so contained the outer foot from the little toe to almost quarter way back was so bad felt like I would get a cramp there and just took the shoes off. Have something going on and have seen numerous physicians to no avail. Leg on that side just deep aching yesterday and had to rest on foot stool to relieve. Have any of you had similar feet problem and what did it turn out to be? Am wearing thong White Mts. at the present time and these are working ok.
used to have an old iron claw foot tub
in my old house, worked really hard to keep it, replumbed entirely and it was the most comfortable tub I have ever had. That said - others may not appreciate. The people who bought the house ripped it out almost immediately. I was sick when I drove by and saw it sitting in the driveway.
Watch the foot network. sm
 I started watching food net work a couple of years ago. It is amazing how much I have learned. Especially Emeril, R. Ray and Sandra Lee. Good luck, hope you and your family enjoy your new cooking skills.
Mountains. Back rub or foot rub?

Your foot is looking like Swiss Cheese
Better quit shooting yourself in it. Twould that you did a little research before you spout off as an authority. Point in fact, 'stupider' is an American English colloquialism, found in some modern literature but still not considered 'proper' English, and is not used in British English, which is what you claim you use.
secluded from the rest of the inmate population
They may be citizens and are paying taxes like the rest of us.
What difference does it make?
Agree with that! Looking down from her high horse on the rest of us?!!!

Ex-husband had it. Same thing..out of nowhere, even at rest, his heart would just take off, up
over 200 beats a minutes. It was very scary. I think his was caused by congenitally having an extra vein or artery on his heart on the underside to which electrical currents travels and no way to slow it down. Evidently, he went to a cardiac electrophysiologist who did an ablation. Basically, put an electric wire up through the femoral artery to the problem and zapping it with an electrical current which shorted it out, much like if you would stick a wire or key into an electrical outlet. It cured him, but up until that point, he was having to stay on medication to control his heart beat so they wouldnt go out of control.
