Any ideas how to get rid of this fat bag around my chin/neck area? Do you just have to lose a lot of weight for it to decrease? I am obese at 180 lbs, 5Ɗ". But boy it just looks horrible in pics. It bothers me more than the actual overall weight does. Guess diet is in for my New Years's resolutions........

Actually, it was a hair on her chinny, chin, chin!
I kid you not. It's recurrent, so every 3 or 4 months I can be guaranteed a HUMUNGUS ingrown hair w/pus pocket containing at least a teaspoon of goo!

Keep your chin up.
I am dealing with a neighbor situation also and have been stewing all morning wondering what I should do. I agree with all here. If it were me (and what I will probably do this this evening myself), I would call HER and calmly, firmly state that this has gone on long enough. Your boy will play with who he likes, he will have fun the way he likes, from now on will not have to worry about catering to her child, and you would like the phone calls to stop. If she is so concerned/critical of all the children then her boy should not be playing with them. No one likes a nag and one with a superior attitude to boot. I would also point out that she could use some parenting tips. She is raising a little nark. Do not be so hard on yourself. You are doing the best that you can do and sounds like you are doing a fabulous job. Don't let this woman intimidate you or dictate to you. She honestly sounds like she has issues.
The Holiday does it for me. or Holiday Inn for a priceless oldie.nm

Having constant outbreaks of herpes on my chin. Anyone try anything for this that really works
other than taking all different kinds of drugs. I would rather try something more natural. For some reason I keep breaking out.
more disappointed on 9/10/07 when
At that point, as of 9/10/07, I'm dumping The View........
I *heard* that Ellen Degeneres' show might be shown at the same time as The View. Guess what? That's where I'll be headed if that happens!! Love her show and she is just so not controversial and SHE IS SMART!! I think Sherri Sheperd is lacking in the latter area plus 3 comediennes on the panel? I don't think so......
And Barbara Walters needs to leave. A lady always knows when to leave but Baba Wawa just doesn't get it. 
I am very disappointed
that those are the final 2, but it is a game and they got to the end even though most of us don't appreciate their tactics. I do believe that the person in 2nd place gets money as well, though not as much. I would not bet on them getting along real well after getting out of the house though.
I'm so sorry. You must be really disappointed.
I live in the mid-Atlantic, and we get a real mix of weather. Never tons of anything for months at a time, but every couple of months (or hours!) the weather changes. I was glad that the snow missed us. I hate the shoveling. But it is pretty stuff.
Have you ever been disappointed in your
DD or DS on how they are raising your grandkids. I don't want a rant on DDILs or DSILs.
I spent the week-end keeping the Grands while mom and dad worked. They do not listen well at all. DGS is ADHD, he is not doing well in school and his behavior (at home, not school) is awful. Like I say they do not mind, and DD and DSIL let it go until they are mad and then they yell and threaten to spank them. The kids know that 9 times out of 10, nothing will happen, so they don't quit.
They do listen to me and their other grandmother, because if we say we are going to spank, we do.
They also do not eat well. They eat, fishsticks, chicken nuggets, pizza bites, peanut butter, french fries, yogart and maybe a few other things.
Mom and Dad are junk eaters so they don't serve other things.
I'm disappointed I won't be able to use my little sm
battery-operated TVs anymore. They came in handy during long power outages.
Sm's right. In other words, you can't "watch TV" without a converter box, but still can use the TV for previously recorded things or rental movies on DVD or VHS.
So disappointed
OK New Englander and Heroes hit the nail on the head. I just wanted clarification that I was not the only person who had this impression. I don't usually go on public forums to vent BUT...........
Four years ago I met a guy who is a firefighter/paramedic/ER tech (on his days off and when I met him he was training police across the nation for Homeland Security in Haz mat response. He is college educated, polite, very well mannered. We have seen each other a few times since I met him and we email and talk frequently. Sounds like a nice guy, right?
The first of Feb he called me and asked me if he could borrow some money for an unexpected property tax bill. He changed jobs and moved to a different state right about the time the housing market started to bottom out. I know in the state I live in if your property is not your principal place of residence your tax rate changes. Soooo long story short...I sent him a cashier's check, he emailed me and called me and said thanks I couldn't have done it without you. Then he started talking about coming to my house and do some work for me to work off some of the money and I was thinking well I really need the money but I thought I would just let that part play out. Then the end of April I emailed him and said I really need to know if you can start paying something on this loan. You guessed it...he has not answered, nor has he called me. Three more emails have gone unanswered. My whole family was police officers and I always held police and fire in high esteem....these are the people who put their lives on the line for us everyday. Boy am I ever stupid.....So anyone have any ideas?
Really disappointed this year but still watching
I have chosen Melinda since the beginning but Jordan was also good last night. I like your choices but after that it is all downhill for me. This is the weakest crowd of singers yet. Saw them in concert about 3 years when they made their rounds afterward, not wasting my time anymore. I hope the worst goes, otherwise I fear for the show's staying power.
I'm also disappointed that you chose this route.
It seemed obvious that you didn't want the paddling to happen, but you caved and let someone else (school and daughter) make the decision.
Whether one is for or against corporal punishment isn't even the issue for me. The bigger thing with me is the thought that some adult getting may be getting his/her thrills from paddling a teenage girl.
So disappointed in Whoopi today on The View!
I live in the deep south and talking about Michael Vick today Whoopi is so misinformed. I have sent the show an email and hopefully it gets to her attention but having said that, she was saying how dogfighting was a cultural thing here in the "deep south." I was born and raised in the south and know of no one who condones this type of inhumane behavior. with her having said that with such authority as really knowing the facts, I think puts southerns in a terrible light. I myself am a huge animal lover with lots of pets and her statements really offended me and I am sure other southerns. Maybe she will get enough feedback to acknowledge she might ought to research a little further before making overall statements about how southerns are.
I'm disappointed that you said yes - you can go to the school and change your mind! (nm)

I was disappointed in the group last night basically
No one really grabbed me like I would like them to. Adam was okay but I am just not into him as well. The group overall had none of the zing felt with the first group. Oh, well, I think there is a brand new group next week, isn't that so and how many more groups are there?
I'm very disappointed, but not in what you call "anti-Christian posts."
Have you heard this famous quote from St. Francis of Assisi: “Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.”
He was a very great man who encouraged Christian action and greatly discouraged people preaching AT others.
I have pics somewhere...let me see
if I can find one. I can only seem to find one where the dogs are in it only incidentally, but here it is anyway--oh, and the cutest kid in the whole world about 1.5 years ago--but your niece runs a close second!!! :o)
Saw pics in a magazine once....where are you?
!
All for pics and time
Love pictures of any kind and love visits or being invited to dine with them. Everyone is just too busy these days. Money and gifts not important as quality time. My best Christmas gift ever was when my two kids got together with their kids and did a family picture at the mall, They usually do not see each other except at holidays, so them getting the two families together for a picture was wonderful.
baby pics
On some level, the magazine that buys them will probably earn their $$ back. $300k is not all that much and there are a lot of Palin supporters out there who will buy the magazine.
Here's a issue that kept cropping up in my mind during the election when all of the hubbub was going around after it was announced that she was pregnant. The conservative right wing was so proud of her for keeping her child and not terminating the pregnancy (hello, choice) and yet there was no outrage from the conservatives that this 17-year-old child had been having sex without the consecration of marriage.
I just found it a little odd and more than a little hypocritical.
I'll have to get some more pics of him
Our first night was a little rough, having to get used to being a big boy now!
My other dog, Gizmo, is a shitzu chihuahua cross, and he's 2 years old. He hasn't quite warmed up to Radar yet. I think all the yipping and what not is getting on his nerves LOL. He did come check him out this morning though when he started hollering. I thought that was cute.
Does anyone watch Cesar Milan? I absolutely love that show! I'm learning a lot from it!
Can you post pics on here? Trying ?

I have no idea what the ariticle about the pics said.
I agree with the above post...lucky you. Even if it is just lucky to see them. Was this by chance on the Creeper Trail? I think that is only in VA but not sure.
couple more pics of Lakoda
nm
i wish more people could post pics!
I always look and admire them. May not always comment but I love them like it sounds like you do!!
Hot mail change and no pics
My hotmail email account sometimes changes the way it looks with upgrades or whatever they are doingl. Ever since the last time, when someone sends me an email with a picture in it (not an attachment), the pictures are blank. What can I do?
I have taken pics from previous gatherings
and bought cute pic holders and (like at Claire's and put the pic along with the gift care on that. Guess that would be more for girls, but for boys you, depeneding on their age and likes, you could put it in a baseball cap or something like that.
Posting your pics over internet
ST. LOUIS – It's an international mystery: How did a Missouri family's Christmas card photo end up in the Czech Republic, splashed across a huge storefront advertisement? Danielle Smith said Wednesday that the photo taken of her family last year got sent to family and friends, and was posted on her blog and a few social networking sites. The photo showed her and her husband Jeff holding their two young children.
About 10 days ago, one of Smith's college friends was driving through Prague when he spotted their huge smiling faces in the window of a store specializing in Europeann food. He snapped a few pictures and sent them to a flabbergasted Smith.
"It's a life-size picture in a grocery store window in Prague — my Christmas card photo!" said Smith, 36, who lives in the St. Louis suburb of O'Fallon.
Mario Bertuccio, who owns the Grazie store in Prague, said the photo was from the Internet. Details were sparse, but he said he thought it was computer-generated. When told it was a real photo — of a real family — he said he started taking steps to remove it.
"We'll be happy to write an e-mail with our apology," said Bertuccio, who said he would send the Smiths a bottle of good wine if they lived in his eastern European country.
The Smiths and photographer Gina Kelly hadn't authorized anyone to use the pictures. Kelly said she has asked a professional photographers' organization to help figure out how her image wound up in Prague.
Smith has gotten 180,000 hits to her Web site since she recently posted the story about the well-traveled snapshot. She said the photo wasn't used in an unseemly manner, it was just used to tell potential shoppers about the store's delivery service.
Smith said next time she posts a photo on the Internet, she's going to lower the resolution or add an electronic watermark to make it hard to reproduce.
"This story doesn't frighten me, but the potential frightens me," Smith said.
A double duh here
I was answering the post above me when they said Merck would benefit off these injections. Yes, I said, that is what most pharmaceutical companies are in the business for. I use medications, my husband does, my whole family does. I really don’t understand what you are trying to say?? This in no way will effect me whether it is mandatory or not.
Almost all men look at porn! They love lesbian pics
I reall wouldn't worry about it! It's a billion $ industry - paid for by men of all ages and walk of life. Even if the don't buy porn I guarantee they love looking at beatuiful women in the grocery store or at church!
Adult porn is legal. It's not criminal to look it - I don't see what that has to do with his job! Every model/actress has documentation of her dob and government issued ID on file with the producer. The FBI can inspect these records at any time. Look at any "big" soft porn site (hustler, playboy, penthouse) and click on 2257 diclaimer.
I really wouldn't worry about it. I disagree with the above poster that it ruins lives!!!
Men buy printed porn, call phone sex lines, and view porn on the net simply to get off. It has nothing to do with an addiction or ruining his life! Even what we think of "kinky" may simply be a harlmess fetish/fantasy. He may not want to admit to his wife that he likes wearing women's panties, or that he loves women in fish net stockings. So he buys a mag for $10 and spends $20 on phone sex line or a web cam girl and gets to live it for 15 minutes.
This is me but I would rather have my traveling husband or my son in college look at Hustler and call a phone sex line than sleep with a woman and catch something nasty! I wouldn't want to discuss it with them over breakfast, but I wouldn't worry about it! :)
Porn sites are high risk for viruses - I would be more concerned about getting good anti-virus software on his computer.
Of course, on the flip side, during Gay Days, there were pics
with their wankies hanging out. American Family Association went in undercover and took a LOT of pics much like this. The problem...DisneyWorld treated it just like any other day and parents were bringing their entire families in the park only to find out once inside what their children were being subjected to. There was nothing posted ahead of time or during Gay Days that would have forewarned heterosexuals of the week long event. My understanding is that DisneyWorld still hosts Gay Days, but now announce prior to and during the event so heterosexuals, heterosexual parents raising their children are aware.
This is not false information, it is absolutely truthful, so it has nothing to do with my personal opinion.
Nikon Cool Pix (pics?) digital
Got a Nikon from my husband last Christmas and I love it. It is easy to work, is digital, software is simple, camera is small, but not too small. Pixels are terrific and the features are many. I would recommend it. It is on sale most of the time at Costco. The add on memory is fairly affordable too and I love to just keep the camera with us and add pictures until I have free time to upload them. Another thing I love about is that the battery stays charged for a long, long time. It takes beautiful pictures too!
I'm always ready to share pics of my dogs..sm
I'm going to be in real trouble when I have grandkids if I'm this crazy over my dogs - I do have two granddogs - Golden Retrievers, but no pictures of them to share at the moment.
Cool pics and ideas. We grew our
tomatoes in 5 gallon buckets last year, but not upside down. This year, we have 50(!) tomato plants growing. Think DH went a little too far.
I like the other idea I saw about using garbage bags, too. I wonder how that went. We might try that with a couple plants; and I also like using the hanging planters. I have plenty of those left over from flowers.
The idea of putting basil in the top is also a good idea, but I'm wondering if the tomatoes growing upright after a while would shade out the basil. Do you know?
Double Yea to Andy!
Good for him! Good for you!
I will not tell you what my first thought was when you wrote "detasseling", but I can assure you it had nothing to do with corn!
My son is a college student. He has a job on campus. I pay the college bills he pays for whatever he needs while at school. This is his 2nd year and so far so good - he's never asked me for money. He was home on break a few weeks ago and was so excited to show me this t-shirt he bought at a Goodwill store. It was black with a very large photo of Michael Bolton on it. He thought it was a riot, and so didn't I because we both have a warped sense of humor. He is a very preppy-looking kid, usually wears a white t-shirt with an opened collared shirt over it, nice jeans, clean-cut, short hair. The Michael Bolton t-shirt is SO unlike him. He's now looking for a shirt with David Hasselhoff on it. You will may be entertained by what your son buys.
Enjoy these years, they are THE best!
Thanks. I will be sure to double check this. nm

Say what, in the south we have double
names for males also, since when did you think it stopped at females?
Funny that the double name comes up
I was going to add that to my original post, as both of her girls have double names. So, for the third girl, she wants to keep it the same. They have kind of given up on that tho, since they haven't been successful at finding anything. Thanks a bunch!!!
double standard
Men have been doing it for centuries....marrying and/or keeping mistresses about 15-20 years younger and nothing is said about it, other than "You lucky dog."
Why is it so frowned upon in society for women to consider the same option?
Ditto and NEVER again. I'd rather pay double! lol
Amazing what some people will do to save a buck.
Oh no, we're going to H E double L!
Are you even capable of making a point without the scare tactics? And you wonder why bible thumpers like you are laughed at.
Hmmm, actually don't think she needs Idol, after seeing those pics, Playboy will be calling her,

If you can upload your pics, share with us your pooches and kitties!!! nm

It is considered a double negative, sm
and not standardly use. Use "regardless", or "irrespective". It is considered bad grammar.
According to Wikipedia, double-wides just
depreciate more slowly than single-wides:
"Others have strongly limited or forbidden all single-wide models, which tend to depreciate in value more rapidly than modern double-wide models."
And modern double-wides depreciate less quickly than older double-wides:
"Newer manufactured homes, particularly double-wides, tend to be built to much higher standards than their predecessors and meet the building codes applicable to most areas. This has led to a reduction in the rate of value depreciation of most used units."
Unfortunately that's still losing money instead of making it.
I had a mouse get in my double oven many
years ago and get electrocuted on the wiring. Needless to say the kitchen smelled like something dead for DAYS. I tore the room apart and never found it. When we took the front electrical panel off 3 months later to replace a report, there it was! Looked like it was crucifed. All bones and they all fell out all over the stove. Yuk.
I double lock the door and have a
security latch as there's been a lot of break-ins at gun point lately. We live in an apt and since I work overnight I've actually had people that thought my door was their door and tried to unlock it...drunk ones, of course.
I've thought about leaving my keys in the car and the windowns down (1999 car with 137,000 miles on it)....JOKING.
Are we going to h-e-double-hockeysticks in a handbasket or what? NM

Hayseed how do you crop your pics? I'd like to add to the collection of animal angels here.
Or can I send you mine and you'll do it for me, pretty please? 
Please forgive the double post. Wise NM
