Or call your state office for help, i.e., look under CT State, VA State, etc., and ask questions. Around here, they've kind of (New England) let up a little on your assets, used to be you couldn't have two cents in your pocket. Check it out.

Food Stamps
I just got back from the store and the lady in front of me had 2 small kids and paid with food stamps. When I was loading my groceries in my car, she was putting her children in car seats and driving a BRAND NEW CADILLIAC ESCALDE!! This thing was LOADED! Grrrrrrrr!

The thing is that some people do abuse the system and always will. But I do think there are people who really need help sometimes.
Food stamps and other help sm
Our local paper this a.m. had an article on how people are eligible for food stamps if less than 40K per year for family. He needs to seek help from the state where you life. You did not cause it and can't cure it. He is letting pride get in his way and playing on your sympathy. If he's depressed, he is eligible for help as well. You are not a bank, a restaurant or a hotel. Been there, done that with a brother, will never, ever be "used" again, my husband and kids come first! Get tough!
Where pray tell do you think food stamps come from?
From the food stamp fairy? I read the entire post. You are counting on someone else to do your job, lady. Talk about sitting home on their behinds. Welfare and food stamps, same thing, government at work.
She mentioned the car. You go apply for food stamps, sm
and see what it takes to qualify. Maybe you will enjoy that experience. You have no idea. Go ahead, I dare you. Take all you receipts down there, and you children's birth certificates, and all your utility bills, etc, etc. You will see just how great it is to apply for food stamps, and exactly what you get for that.
It is because poor people get food stamps. right.

Tell that to the soldiers using food stamps at the commissary.

How do you feel about Food Stamps/Welfare?
In the way home from school last night, I had to run into the Ameristop to get a gallon of Orange Juice.
Well, as I was pulling in, this lady (about 25) was walking in, sort of rough looking girl.
Well, she was ahead of me in line then and she got her food stamps out, and typically this kind of thing makes me upset. Because, you could see physically anyway, there was nothing wrong with her.
But, maybe there was....... or maybe she lost her job, and is trying to manage. Not that I was being nosey or anything, but there she had 2 Gallons of Milk, Sausage and Biscuit Dough. So, maybe she was trying to get breakfast for her family in the morning. So now all of a sudden I feel guilty.
But, if we weren't in these hard economic times where jobs were scarce, I typically wouldnt be as understanding, because I do feel Welfare is Abused.
What about you?
THEN, another thing......... maybe you will know, Sometimes you see Welfare people ahead of you in line at the grocery store or something, and they ALWAYS have "Name-brand" in their cart. Never Store Brand. Well I shouldnt say Never, but it always seems like your name brands.
Does Welfare require them to get Name Brand?
I feel that if food stamps are really needed...sm
Then there is nothing wrong with it.
Just because a person is on food stamps doesn't generally mean they are disabled or can't work. Some people on them are those that work for minimum wage and cannot afford to buy groceries especially a single mother who makes minimum wage. Then again some people just don't work at all and get them because they don't want to do any better. It depends. Welfare is lots of times abused.
I wouldn't think people on food stamps would be required to buy name brand. Maybe it is just the person's preference. I don't know.
I DID NOT DRAW WELFARE. I got food stamps
only for a very short time. I was also a taxpayer then and had been for a number of years before and still continue to be. Why don't you come down off your high horse and realize that sometimes people need help. I hope that you and Amy never become disabled and have to rely on government services to help you.
They resent anybody on aid, especially food stamps, and have no clue what it takes to get them.

postcard stamps are 26 cents...sm
There used to be a time when you could buy all kinda holiday postcards. Have you ever made your own postcards outta your old cards? Just cut off the front, draw a line down the middle, address and send...pinking shears or regular scissors work just fine ....I've done it for the last coupla years and the folks at the post office love it....It's economical and you're recycling as well.

Stamps go up 1 cent Monday
I first heard of it today, they're blaming it on the cost of gas to deliver mail. At least this time I won't have all my bills returned for a stupid 1 cent more postage, like happened last time.

I am using Angel Food Network for help with food (sm)
Being much more careful not to waste food. No more fast food. Soda only if bought in a two-liter bottle, not singles or fountain. Most of my money waste was spent on food.

When I was looking to go short, I typed in short hair style or short hair cut or similar wording. A lot of the sites have the same pictures (but so do the magazines, which bugs me) but once you get there, some have all different lengths and not just short styles.
I would google for
small business startups for your individual state. Seems like there would be the possibility of health codes to follow, health department inspections, but no experience with this.
You are brave!
I am sure you could google
pool maintenance for free articles?
Use Google....see msg
Go to Google home page, and at the top click on "Products." Click on that, type in the name of the toy, and search. You can click on "lowest to highest price" to refine your search better. It showed some at Target for $39. Good luck.
Google.

Thank you all for your responses. I did Google this sm
and didn't find too much. I did find some support on holistic sites, though, about Hartz products and other people saying their dogs have become sick on other once-a-month flea meds. It might be too early for people to make the connection.
Thank you all for your responses. Healthy pets for all!
Check out Google
Today (Valentine's Day) Google's home page has a special way of spelling "Google". The second "g" is in the form of a chocolate-covered strawberry with chocoloate dripping down to form the bottom of the "g" but there is no "l" so that "Google" appears to be spelled "Googe".
I google whatever ? comes to mind...sm

He has been wanting his own show. Sorta explains the playing up to the cameras and the unprofessional behavior, doesn't it. It is just too bad everyone is forgetting the sad story and the woman behind all of this, huh?

I had to google, too. I had no idea.

Started to google but when I saw going here and going there
just decided not gonna read all that. First of all I think you and only you make your life happy or sad, good or bad. I do good for others and it comes back to me, always but I do because I want to, not have to. Life is in our hands and ours alone, not our husband, children, other family members.
Did you try asking Google for the info? sm
I do that often when I have questions like that because more than likely others have the same question. Put in your type of satellite and something like "set timer to record" and you may find an answer out there. Good luck!
