Multiple Generations on Facebook

In Reply to: Facebook for me has been fun just - JT
Both my adult children don't want me as their friend on facebook. I'm not sure if it's because they don't want me seeing their page and all their friends' pages, or if they just find it weird to be friends with their mommy. Either way, I only have a very select group of friends on my facebook page, and I still don't see the point of visiting it much. I'm only in my early 40's, but apparently my long-lost friends either want to stay that way or are too old for Facebook themselves.
But Twitter still totally confuses me. What is it *supposed* to do?

My mom has had generations of psycho squirrels.
They eat a hole in the porch wood every year. They eat the putty, the paint, the cayenne pepper, the Tabasco sauce, the lemon, the squirrel scoot, the deer scoot and anything else we've ever tried. This has happened for YEARS and nothing works. They don't even really run from us anymore. Squirrels are not our friends. ;-)
Agree. Teachers of future generations should be better

Well found out 4 generations in my family noninvasive
Just spoke with my aunt and asked if my grandmother ever knew/asked when her daughters having theirs (3 girls in all)- she said never, my mother never, my daughter never. I guess some families more trusting in certain regards.
I do Facebook but have not gone over
to check out twitter yet. My BF is on there, but only just got on, so I haven't heard much about it.
Facebook for me has been fun just
because I am now in contact with people I have not seen/heard from in years (I am 50). The people I run around with are all on it, but mostly we just play the games and take the tests (don't ask me why). Posting of photos is nice.
By the way, my daughter (who is 19) thinks it is stupid that all of us "older" people are on it. She did let me be her "friend," but I am not allowed to post anything stupid to her.
facebook
Anybody else think facebook is weird? Looking up people you have not seen and listing off personal stuff about yourself? It seems weird to pretend you know everyone so well, virtually, but not in reality.
Maybe try Facebook for this stuff. nm

Multiple cats, see inside
I have multiple cats due to being involved in cat rescue. Hope I can help. I have several with irritable bowel and they are on a special diet, otherwise get diarrhea. I do the separate room thing and also have what we call Tokyo cages, but in the catalogs, like Foster and Smith and Revival, they are called cat playpens. The cats with problems get put in separate rooms or cages to eat and have to stay until the rest have finished theirs. This way when they come, there is nothing left for them to steal. That is for wet food. As far as dry, I free feed and have found that the Iams Hairball seems to work well for all of them. I don't know what you are feeding, wet or dry, but hope this helps some. Also, check with the vet, maybe this sensitivity is something that can be taken care of with some medicine or a diet additive. One poster said put them all on the same thing as the sensitive cat which is not a bad idea either. Hope this was of some help, couldn't help myself from posting, I am a major cat lover.
and neither are others who have been married multiple times. nm

I had multiple ones burned off 10 years ago....
I had a dermatologist burn off about 30 in the neck-clavicular area about 10 years ago. Those have not returned but new ones have in same area.
My advice is to NOT CUT THEM OFF YOURSELF!! My child has a big one, sent to my plastic surgery friend to take it off.
If you have facebook and really liked Rose Flack (sm)
you can join a group on there to support her. It probably will not get her back on, but it would probably really make her feel better to see how many people supported her. So if you do have facebook and liked her, please join and forward an invite to your friends :)
facebook dangerous in my mind sm
Friends invite friends who invite "friends only" until there are people from all over on what is supposed to be my "family space" according to one family member. Never place a full-face picture on there as they can lift it and put it on a phony license, etc. My son had his identity stolen, had to take time out of work, travel to the city where the crime was originated and go to court. My son is Caucasian, the other person was not, it was horrific! I also do not like other family members posting pics of me and my family on there at every family function under their "family and stuff" albums. I am so sick and tired of preaching - nobody listens, they love the attention, they post every move they are making during the day which to me is sooo ridiculous! I feel the same about Twitter and My Space. I vote hands down.
I like Facebook better, had a myspace page - sm
which I have since cancelled, was approached by a couple guys looking to hookup (one told me what a good lover he was-- yuck, what a turn-off especially coming from a complete stranger) which ticked me off as I clearly stated I was married, etc, then again that is probably why they contacted me. Told each of them off and never heard from them again for which I was glad. Cancelled my account soon after that. But got on Facebook a about 8 months ago and some old friend "found" me back in February and since then have gotten back in touch with about 30 people I grew up with, kind of cool, exchanged a few emails here and there. Just dug out some old class pics over the weekend and plan to post them there, ought to be funny, another girl dug out some, and I have found more so we all get a kick out of it.
I feel sorry for people having multiple miscarriages
Many women do not know this but if one has multiple miscarriages, it COULD be a rheumatological problem, autoimmune problem and not just a gynecological problem. I used to work for a rheumatologist and typed many, many of these types of reports and so I just think that women either *forget* about the field of rheumatology or don't know about the field regarding multiple miscarriages, so I'm merely here to *inform*
*hugs* 2 all who have experienced miscarriages - and best of luck to all!
Try Facebook, Twitter, My Space or those other blogs ..
They are usually on there, at least you'll know he's okay. You must be heartbroken. I have one whose wife plans busy plans every weekend with her mother and tribe, he has no say and he can't see us because he has to go to the in-laws. I wish he'd get a spine! When he does have time, he's blogging. We just wonder where we went wrong. We worked our a$$ off for him and the MIL never worked, so I am considered not so good of a mom by his wife because her mom stayed home and baked cookies, I was in the trenches with the troops. What good did it do me? I was just the working woman, bad in their eyes. I guess my main job was not that of a "good mother" because I worked. I see it as I worked in order to provide a good home for my family and I baked, cooked and cleaned as well, probably not as good, but not good enough. So tired of it! My friends say if they did come over he'd probably have to get nagged in the car afterwards. I wouldn't want that, I love him too much. They do break our hearts sometimes, part of the old saying, "A daughter for the rest of your life; a son until he takes a wife." My heart aches for you, really. I'd find him just to make sure he's okay and if he doesn't respond, it's his choice, at least you tried. Or just see if he's okay and let it go. Watch me get flamed now, that's all I need, I am heartbroken enough and I get flamed enough in person. I don't need that either, worked too hard all my life, for what?
she is on a multiple-times-per-week drug testing
Too bad - but If you always do what you've always done....you'll always get what you've always gotten.....if her kids are less important to her than her partying, druggin' ways...well, how one makes their bed is how they get to sleep in it.....no sympathy here....
K-Fed, in particular, stays clean FOR his kids....and I don't like or even know the guy, but I do know he IS the better parent from all that is shoved at us about these 2 and not just these 2 but all these rehab'd at-risk younger people....
oh and please don't think I don't have a heart - no flames - got my own family history of substance abuse that goes decades back...some even died....
But having kids is like G_d giving ya a second chance to GET IT RIGHT!! Some people just don't get it....
JMHO (just my HUMBLE opinion)
Okay, ladies. I just joined facebook. My friend wanted me to sm
join, but I can see how this could become a neat place to network with my friends and family members. I'm going to try to get my mom to join. I'm so cheesy. Anyoneo on facebook wanna join me? haha Or add me as their friend..even cheesier LOL
My sister has multiple cats who require differnt foods. sm
She feeds them in separate rooms. She gives them 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening to eat. The overweight cat has become beautifully normal-weighted over the past year. They all do well with this arrangement as cats are only munchers cause we keep the food available all the time. I actually started restricting food times for my cats as well and they are all doing great. Hope this helps.
I have to have front tooth removed after multiple apicos on it and it just keeps reinfecting. The
tooth next to it is also not the best having had surgeries so bridging is not an option. These teeth were broken when I was a kid. Any suggestions other than an implant for the space. This is quite upsetting as I have spent a fortune on these 2 front teeth.
Intercome w/multiple units or several baby monitors might do it. You could put a bell or whistle on

Considering her face was broken multiple times by Ike Turner, a facelift is certainly excusable. nm
