Haven't done it for years . . . sm
but this year my 14-year-old daughter and her friend and mother are all going to try it again with me. I am looking forward to it, because I think it will be a lot of fun for me and my daughter! We don't go out too seriously, though, just for fun!!! I used to like to bag the bargains when the kids were little, but nowadays the bargains never match my list!!!
a son I haven't seen in 9 years sm
and hav eno idea where he is!
Haven't seen prices that low in years around here - (nm)

I haven't talked to my one sister in 20 years....
and don't ever plan on it. I wrote her off and will never go back. She does not exist to me. Sad isn't it.
Oh man, I haven't had stuffed peppers in YEARS!
My mother was the only one in the family who made them. My husband HATES peppers in any shape or form...can't even stand the smell of them, so I never get to cook them or even have them in the fridge.
She also used to make this funky meal called "porcupine balls."  No joke either! They were meatballs with instant rice in them or something. I dunno, man that was WAY back like in the early 1970s.
ADDENDUM: Holy crap I actually found that recipe googling the term "Porcupine balls!" I'm not as insane as they say! I tried to put a direct link in the box below, but of course it's too long. If anyone wants to check it out, you just have to copy and paste it into your browser.

I've been to Branson a few times. Haven't been in several years
tho. Actually, it's been 13 years. My son was 3 and we did Silver Dollar City and a couple of shows. We also did that duck boat thing. I don't remember what it was called. But it's a boat that drives on land and you drive it right into the water.
I know Branson has come a long way since the last time I was there. So I'm kind of excited!
I haven't had Cream of Wheat in years. Think I'll give it a try again. nm

My husband is 7.5 years younger. Been together almost 20 happy years...nm

My feelings; people shacking up together for years and years
and then all of a sudden deciding to get married don't need a thing, obviously. A shower should not even be given. I lived with my now husband a while (nowadays who doesn't!) before we married and I also had been married before years ago but he was not....so of course HIS mom wanted a shower. I told her absolutely not unless it was just the immediate family, his mom, sisters, etc, more like a celebration/get together. And so that's what we did. Showers are tacky, period. Unless it's a couple of young kids getting married straight out of the house and that doesn't happen much anymore.
Been with a man 13 years older, now with a man 4 years younger.
Younger is better, at least in my case ;)
Sorry, meant 75 cents. Still, that was years and years ago.

I studied to be a scopist years and years ago
Back in the early 1990s I took a course called Note reader Scopist. They read court reporter notes (those long skinny papers that looks like a cash receipt) and types them into documents. I had found the course through something called At Home Professions but just didn't finish it because it was too expensive for me. But I am familiar with them and even found my book from the first course I took. Looking back I think it would have been a blast if I had kept up with it.
It is definitely legitimate. A lot has changed since the early 90s, so I'm not too familiar with the industry now. I do remember what was really weird was it didn't take a lot for me to learn it. For instance I could look at a line of court notes and see something that looked like: NV p srn - and I seemed to know exactly what it said. Just weird. My DH used to say that I understood it because I was an alien and my ship crashed in Roswell. HA HA HA Anyway...that's what I know about it. But if you Google note reader scopist or at home professions i'm sure you could probably find a lot of info.
I have been vegetarian on/off for 35 years, was vegan for about 5 years sm
not that hard. Right now, I am having so many issues with food allergies and celiac disease, having to give up nightshade veggies...nothing left to eat. I am eating some meat now, but not when the gastroparesis sets in!
Being vegan is not hard...unless you are a celiac. This is how I figured out the celiac part because so many of the meat analogs and vegan packaged foods use gluten for the protein and I got really sick from it. I gave up all the premade things and the whole grains with gluten and I was fine.
There is vegan and then there is VE-GAN. By definition, vegans don't wear, use or consume anything that is derived of animals...no leather shoes, most shampoos and toothpastes are off the list, as are deodorants. No wool or silk. Anything with soap usually has animal byproducts. It is very involved and rather difficult to do.
Giving up meat, eggs and dairy is no big deal, except for cheese. You hear that ad about "comfort proteins" in a baby formula and there is such a thing. Mother's milk, be it human, cow, goat, whatever...contains a chemical that triggers the release of endorphins in the brain so that feeding feels good in more ways than one. The purpose of this is ensure that the nursed young want to nurse and thrive. Human milk has a lot of these, so does cow's milk and cow juice triggers the same reaction in the adult human brain. Cheese is concentrated milk and therefore these chemicals are also concentrated. As a result, cheese is an addictive substance. This is the hardest thing to give up when going vegan. Vegan cheese substitutes are nasty and they don't melt. If a dairy-free cheese melts, it contains casein, an animal protein and not vegan.
I studied this years and years and years ago
Most definitely is legitimate. In the late 1980s I studied to be a note reader scopist through a group called At Home Professions. I loved it, but unfortunately could not continue due to no funds. It was reading the court reporters notes which looked like a grocery receipt with a bunch of letters scattered on it. The weird thing was I found it extremely easy. For instance I would see a line that looked like: av e cr, and for some reason I would know what it said. My DH told me that's because I'm an alien and my ship landed in Roswell. HA HA. Well I know that a lot has changed, after all it's been over 20 years since I took the first course and know a lot of it is computerized now, but it is most definitely legitimate and I've heard people like to do it. I think I remember one of the courses was in medical terminology and another course was in legal terminology. Should be able to find a lot of it on google, or maybe go to your local college if they offer it and talk to an instructor.
I haven't done much yet...
I pulled out some flowers that didn't make it to the end of the summer, but some of my annuals look better now than they did earlier so I hate to pull them. We haven't had a frost yet, so most of my summer stuff looks great. Once we have a frost, I will pull the annuals and plant my bulbs.
I am in Central PA, so yes the leaves are starting to turn. They look so pretty. Where are you? Your pepper plant sounded interesting. What kind of weather, growing zone do they like?
I haven't been through this, but...
A good rule of thumb in life is to (1) not worry about things for which you don't have all the information, and (2) not worry about things over which you have no control. You don't have all the information necessary at this point and you definitely don't have control over what's going on, so worrying is absolutely unproductive and is added stress that your baby doesn't need right now.
I wish the best for you. Now go relax and think good thoughts!
I haven't used one myself, but...sm
my parents and sister have had excellent results with theirs. They both have big, strong dogs - a black lab and a border collie mixed with something big and long-legged - and they both trained very quickly and easily.
We haven't seen her yet but....sm
if you know of a weekend day in the future that you'd like to go we might could meet you there. I have a zoo membership and can get 1 adult and up to 2 additional kids in for no extra charge. E-mail me if you're interested.
I haven't been there
personally but have a friend who visits it regularly. For her 13th birthday instead of getting presents for herself, she asked the girls she invited to bring a gift for an animal and then spent her birthday up there at the shelter playing with the animals.
No, I haven't seen it.
I'm not sure if I've ever even seen it advertised.
If they haven't been to one themselves, they just don't get it. Wish I could go, too! nm
x
I haven't, but need to.
I only have the one child, also, but a daughter, so I know the feeling of wanting to get that perfect gift for your "one and only." She is four and wants everything, so I guess that makes it a little easier, since I can buy anything and it will be something that she wanted. 
Your son is going to be SO excited! What a good mommy you are. 
haven't been there
but just wanted to wish you well. It sounds like you are making the right decision. My husband's father is an alcoholic and from what I have heard (we have talked about it a lot) it is not pleasant for kids. You are making the right decision for them. My MIL did not do the same for her kids but my husband still wishes she had.
His father is still an alcoholic and now we face the difficult decision with his influence on our children. We make the tough decisions that we feel are best for our kids. It's our job as parents and we know it is the right thing to do, despite what others within the family may say, namely the alcoholic FIL and MIL who still stands by his side and takes the abuse.
Good luck. It will all work out in time.
haven't really gotten into them...
although my sister is always seeming to be watching a lifetime movie!!!
They won't or haven't said. What do you think? nm

Haven't seen her on HSN
but to answer your question, from what you're probably describing, she's always like that. I saw some of her jewelry on AI and one of the entertainmnet shows. Some of it's really nice and not overpriced from the pieces she had on.
Haven't seen that one all the way thru...
I'll watch it if so!
Haven't tried this yet...sm
but I have this recipe in my "To Try" files. If the filets are really thin, I would grill them on an oiled sheet of aluminum foil.
Ingredients
2 pounds flounder fish fillets
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
Directions
Arrange fish on a well-oiled grill. Combine remaining ingredients and baste fish. Grill, turning and basting occasionally, for 10 minutes per inch of thickness or until fish is flaky and no longer translucent in the center.
Haven't you ever
Haven't you ever said something and after you said it you realized it didn't come out the way you meant it to and you wished you had never said it. Men act first and think later most of the time. My son is always teasing his wife, she wants to become a nurse practitioner and he always says he is going to retire when she gets her NP license. He is kidding but if she was really touchy about it she would get mad. He is an electrical contractor and makes alot of money but he still says he is going to retire and let her support him.
Since this is a new relationship for you I would back off a little bit on paying for things. Think of free stuff to do and spend more time with him getting to know him. If he is looking for someone to pay the way he will be on his way and you will have your answer.
I did and haven't had any problems at all. nm

I haven't done it in a while, but here is a site
that looks pretty good:
http://ezinearticles.com/?Crate-Training-A-Puppy-Or-Adult-Dog&id=87816
Keeping the crate in the family area during the day and your bedroom at night is very important for a puppy. Being alone is distressing, and they don't learn as well when they are stressed about that.
I know you're probably getting tired and frustrated, but you can do this. Good luck.
No I haven't - is it good? (nm)

What is this show about? Haven't seen it.
x
I haven't seen his show but...
have seen the ads for his show on HGTV. He looks fun. Like you would want to invite him over to a party at your house, even if he couldn't decorate for you!!
Don't know about what he does with silk but whatever it is, I bet it is snappy!!!
I haven't tried it; I am using fitday.com
This website is free and is a tool used to help keep track of your calorie/fat/carb intake.
I have limited myself to 1000-1200 calories a day. I was really hungry for the first couple of days, but then I adjusted. Now, I am not hungry. If you go less than 1000 calories you won't lose any weight. I started about 2 mos ago and I just hit the 20-pound mark today. I don't have time to exercise. I work full time and have 2 small children. Now that it is nice, we walk across the street to the park a couple times a week, which doesn't really count 'cause it isn't "strenuous" at all. Just being more active has helped me. Plus I feel better about myself.
I have a long way to go, but I am off to a great start! Good Luck!!!
I haven't but would LOVE to!

OMG! I haven't seen red poppies since I was
a
How do you know they haven't been told already?
Maybe the parent's already told them and the kids or parents are saying anything to anybody about it. Anyhow, it is not your place to tell them.
I haven't ever met my doctor!
I've had her for 5+ years now and have no clue what she even looks like! No matter where I've lived, I always ask to see the NP, but that's my choice. I personally prefer seeing NPs, as I think they spend a lot more time with the patient and aren't as harried. Plus, she's a fatty and I don't feel so bad about myself when I see her and I'm all nudie-toonie! How bad is that?!
Haven't noticed anything like that here
And I live only a few miles from Oklahoma City, which is Sonic HQ.
I haven't heard this? sm
I know she "surrendered" to the police on the DUI charge in May. She wasn't officially arrested until after she finished rehab. I haven't heard about her in jail right now.
I haven't, but mom has. She is doing great. Please sm
don't worry too much about it. I know she just had to have a hysterectomy and then gets checked every 6 months. So far so good.
Right now I am sort of in a scare too. They found a lump in my left breast. Next step is biopsy since ultrasound and mammo were inconclusive. I have been reading everything I possibly can about breast cancer - and I'm worried, too!
Keep us informed. I know you are going to be just fine!
Haven't had cats in a while, but
what I learned was that the most likely thing is a UTI. The cat thinks the pain with urination can be escaped by finding another place to do it.
Or there has been a change in the litter and the cat doesn't like how it feels on the feet or smells.
Or there has been some big change that has rattled the cat, such as a new pet introduced or you moved or I suppose noisy construction, or something major like that.
A cat behaviorist said if infection has been ruled out, the best thing was to offer several litter boxes with different litters and see what the cat likes.
(Cats always want us to remember they are royalty and expect life to quietly revolve around them, lol).
No MRI yet and we haven't been in the woods
She got a few mosquito bites this summer but no ticks. There has been no bullseye rash or anything like that.
What were the Lyme symptoms in your 4-year-old?
I haven't regretted it one bit
I still spot for a day or so, nothing like before though. My only regret is not having had it done sooner and getting so anemic that I had to have IV iron infusions for 5 weeks...go for it, you won't regret it! Good luck!
I haven't watched it, but
I believe it's the real thing. I watch a lot of reality shows, but this one definitely didn't interest me.
Put a lid on the cage if you haven't already - sm
We have 2 hamsters, and the cat just sits on the kitchen table and watches them (they are on a little table in the kitchen). Provides her with hours of enjoyment!
Haven't heard of that but
you might want to have thyroid and ferritin checked. I actually went to a derm doc for same thing, and he said it's been his experience that a lot of women with hair problem have low ferritin. Mine was borderline-low, so started taking vitamin with a a little iron in it. I probably haven't been getting enough iron in diet and stopped taking iron many years ago. But I think mine is probably a combination of things, since I'm a lot older than you and all the menopause things figured in there too. My GYN PA, before the derm doc, basically said yeah, you're old with no estrogen left, think back to when your hair was in its best shape. Yeah, I remember that when I was pregnant, but kind of patronizing attitude there with no help. Yeah, I know I'm old, okay?
I haven't watched N/T yet
Unfortunately I've got a nasty cold and went to bed really early last night. I'm going to watch it this afternoon. I heard there were major cliffhangers.
I haven't been where you are but wowsers...
I would've had a breakdown simply between the bird cage falling down and the computer breaking down, so you are a WAY more stronger person than I! That is an awful lot of stuff for one set of shoulders and I cannot blame you one bit for feeling stressed. Sometimes it helps just to talk about it like you did here...at least to take the edge off a little bit hopefully. I have absolutely no advice other than to say you indeed have my sympathy...yeowsers.
I haven't seen that movie, so I don't know
what part you're talking about.
I HATE watching movies on TV though. I just can't stand how much they cut out, and it always seems to be a part that I wanted to see. I either buy them or rent them. I do netflix and then I can get old and new ones, and I'm bad about returning them on time so the no late fee thing works well for me.
