Nature shows on PBS make me cry.
.
I know it's their nature
That's why I posed: What kind of a plan is that?
The older I get, the freakier it all seems!
Human nature...sm
How many people make New Years resolutions (pledges)? How many break them during the year? Teens are fighting hormones, peer pressure, constant exposure in TV shows/movies, etc. With few exceptions, I think pledges are meaningless unless the person making them is determined to carry them out. I agree with another poster about the father-daughter pledge events. I think it is a bit creepy.
Thank you Nature and Anna
It's nice that others can sympathize with me. I just don't know what it is. One time years and years ago I told him I was feeling depressed and wanted to talk with a counselor. Boy did we have a blow out. He told me I should be able to talk to him about anything and I told him I can't. I told him he judges me and no matter what I feel or think he comes back with "you need to look at things the way I do". He's done that ever since we got married. When I wanted children and he didn't I was supposed to look at things the way he did. When I wanted to see my family but he didn't want me to travel because flying was not safe I was suppose to look at things the way he does. Once I told him you need to look at this the way I do and he said to me "no, because your wrong". I've heard how wrong I am for 25 years now that I just keep my feelings and opinions to myself. Once I accidentally broke a leaf off of one of his plants and he yelled at me for about 2 or 3 hours and I felt like a child with him saying "do you have anything to say for yourself". Then I got the same lecture for 2 hours my dad would give me growing up, and him saying I need to look at this the way he does (me destroying his plants and how would I feel if he destroyed something of mine). Oh hears a good one that will give you a laugh.... we were talking about how bad the crime is where we live. I told him that they should allow citizens from each section of the town pull a neighborhood watch and drive around and have the authority to arrest individuals committing crimes. He looked at me like I was nuts and said 'how, how, how do you think they would do that, they don't have enough money, etc, etc. Then he told me the way to solve it would be to evacuate everyone out of the city, shut down all the roads and make the town a ghost town (mind you this is a town of over 50K people with businesses, restaurants, and stores throught). HA HA...I felt like saying...gee your right honey, I should look at things the way you do.
I guess the weirdest thing though is that I've never had dreams with my my DH in my dreams. Maybe in the beginning I had a dream or two, but that was maybe 20 years ago. Also I know a lot of people can see themselves older and with their spouses, but I have never ever pictured us old together. I don't know what it is but it's like when I look into my future I can see myself with gray hair and being with my family and friends, but he's just not there.
Sometimes I read people's messages and am a little envious and would like to be in a relationship like some are, but I cannot imagine what that would be like. But on the otherhand, I am a very independent person, very sure of myself, and the thought of being alone does not bother me at all. I always think that being alone does not necessarily mean being lonely.
Anyway...just wanted to say thanks for your kind words.
Birds and Mother Nature sm
The birds tell us a lot. The morning of the Great Blizzard of ྊ I could not hear myself think for the noise of the birds everywhere. I live in the NE, I had a feeling they were trying to tell us something. I packed up everything I had that day and left for home and stocked up. I was not able to get out for the whole next week and my husband could not get home. I was fully prepared, but did not know for what. They do warn us! Lots of acorns here this year as well which means it is supposed to be a bad winter. The same thing happened in 1978 with the acorns. We shall see!!
We ALL mess with mother nature
Who among us has not colored their hair, seen a plastic surgeon because we weren't satisfied with our bodies, took a pill to alter our mood or help a physical condition that made us uncomfortable? Who has not dieted, worn colored contact lenses, got a perm, had liposuction? Who didn't get their ears pierced, or love someone who has a body piercing or a tattoo? Even if you never did any of these things, did it make you "sick" whenever someone else did?
Why is it MY business what someone else does with their body? Oh, that's right, it isn't. If I don't like your decision to become a blonde, should it make me "sick"? Should I sneer at you and throw rocks because I personally don't like it that you got breast implants? Well, that's what people do to people that change their sex. What gives them the right?
mother nature never intended for YOU to
It was something that just happened to you. You choosing feels unnatural because it is, and it won't ever feel natural. BUT no one cares if you have a baby or not if you really want to keep your freedom. Babies are a lot of work.
I know its human nature to discuss things such as
there is a 21-year-old college student missing from my home town. She has not been seen since Friday. Her name is Leah Hickman. Her sister and the police were on Fox News last night - Greta (not sure of her last name) interviewed them. Please keep Leah and her family in your thoughts and prayers.
I agree. It is in some people's nature to use those words.
My supervisors at work call me sweetie because they are southern and that is how they speak. Does the teacher treat everyone like that and it is just not part of your speaking style, or is there something else that seems inappropriate about it?
Nature's Plus Source of Life vitamins.
They are made from whole foods rather than synthetic vitamins and guarantee a burst of energy. If I don't take them a few days, I can really tell a difference. I love them.
Awfully defensive in all your posts. IMO, you're a nature nut. Don't you see that most people
tt
Loved all the nature stories! Good stuff.
I enjoy my bird friends. Great entertainment value. Put out a sprinkler and watch the robins, cardinals some sort of little sparrow-like birds show up. They love a refreshing shower.
Disagree-it is NOT human nature. My husband thinks that too (sm)
My husband covered his fishing pole in the back of his truck one day because he said some "average Joe might walk by and take it" because it was just too tempting with it showing. Average Joe wouldn't rummage through the truck and take it - that would just make him a thief, but if Average Joe saw a fishing pole there in plain sight, he might take it. That is wrong to say that you cannot expect someone to come into your home and work for ou and not take anything, that it is human nature. It is NOT human nature. It is stealing and it is wrong. I am not perfect by any means but if I was working as a housekeeper I would not take anything that was not mine.
So were they stolen by a thief? Lol or just a person with human nature? (sm)
I probably would have just warned the cleaning person that some things had been missing and if she happened to put something in a new place to let me know because were having some things we could not find. If it continued I would find someone else.

shows
You've chosen great shows....Etta James?!!?.....I would give my right arm to see her live!....Bring tissues to Phantom if you've never seen it before. You're gonna have a lotta fun. 
It shows an ape for everyone
NM
shows?
any particular great shows or things to see ? ? My daugther is getting married at Mandalay Bay - not sure about the spelling of that.. we'd like to stay there or somewhere close but don't want to stay at a real expensive place. . watching the budget - planning our own marriage/house, etc.
Well, if it shows up in my
chicken and broccoli, then I am going to ask for an accounting somewhere. I checked the site, see nothing there that we use.
This shows you just how much you do not know
I was married, previous husband (deceased) bought a vehicle. At the time he bought this vehicle we were separated. He died before the car was paid off (back together at the time of his death). I was not signed on the papers in any way, shape or form and did NOT have to pay for the vehicle. I told GMAC they could come and get it out of my yard, I did not want, did not drive, etc., etc. Your statement about being responsible for each others bills made during the marriage does not hold water. You do not have all the answers like you think you do.
TV Shows
I don't have much time to watch TV, but I do DVR a lot. The main shows I watch are Ghost Whisperer, Nip/Tuck (when it's on), Flashpoint, Americas Next Top Model, Hells Kitchen, Desperate Housewives, and of course American Idol. I also have to admit that I love reality shows and watch a lot of the reality shows on the E channel, VH1 and MTV shows.
Yes, shows are something we could do, living
where we do. It's not far to go, maybe 12 miles across town.
And thank you very much. One thing we don't want to do is get Sasha's nose out of joint, LOL.
What about going on one of the judge shows?
I heard they pay the plantiff on the spot :)
shows who rates around here
So, the almighty humans get the seatbelts and all we get is a stinkin' leash?
I like the judge shows too, --sm
'specially Judge Judy. I like it when she starts telling people they are i*d*i*o*t*s, and the like. I really don't know why some of those people would even WANT to go on there and be subjected to her wrath! Talk about an anger personality! wheee.
Broadway shows
Hubby and I and 2 kids are going to New York and are going to see a couple of B'way shows. Daughter and I are going to a matinee of Legally Blond and the whole family will see the evening performance of Lion King. What is the appropriate attire. Does hubby need to wear a tie and jacket. I am clueless! Thanks for any info!
I've only seen a few shows (sm)
I've caught it a few times channel surfing, but I was mesmerized by that kid. He definitely has something. Unfortunately I work too much to get 'hooked' on anything LOL.
But yeah, his kids seem really well adjusted and grounded. My 20yo daughter just can't get over the fact that they have 2 kids and been living together forever and not married.
I also got married there- as far as shows
I loved Jubilee at Harrah's(this is topless at later show) and have seen Barry Manilow, George Wallace lately along with George Carlin- the Cirque shows play at 4 places, the Venetian, Bellagio, Treasure Island and the Mirage, I believe. A lot of the shows close around Christmas and they also have blackout nights during the week. I would check on line to see who is playing the week you will be there. Jubilee is there all the time whereas other entertainers in and out. I thought the Bay was sorta expensive place to stay?
Have you ever seen it? All of those shows are just disgusting.
It's very vile. Which is why I only watch t.v. 0.00001% of my time. There isn't anything good on t.v. anymore - or good for you. I have 3 young children and the only safe channel it seems is the food network!
She should do more exposure shows because--
not only does she reach millions, people pay attention.
this one's going to be hard for me to watch.
LOL...we watch those shows
at our house. I am usually the one who wants to see them (female).
No, not in that area. But just shows that this goes on everywhere. nm

fave shows
I'm addicted to HGTV and all the home improvement shows and house selling/buying shows..
My 9am EST *must* is Ellen, even if I only watch it for a few minutes for the monologue.
My 11:30pm **mustmust** is Chelsey Lately!! She is TFF!!!
I luvvvv House
I luvvvv that show the chick from Will & Grace is/was doing... oh shoot, what's the name of it.... grrrr... she's an ex-wife with a diary..
What TV shows do you watch?
With all the renewals and cancellations going on for the networks, what are the shows you regularly watch?
For me:
Lost
The Office
Kath & Kim
Big Bang Theory
Law & Order (& SVU)
House
The Simpsons
We got rid of cable so we rely on Hulu for anything else.
I saw a lady on one of those makeover shows and
she had her hair cut into a really great style that made her two tone hair look really trendy. They did put a third color in her hair. She had longer hair than you but perhaps you can have the same thing done to yours only shorter. They layered her hair.
Baby? That pic shows a kid playing with a See & Say!
If that kid is old enough to pull on the handle, then that kid is also old enough to drink from a sippy cup! Come on, people! Wake up! This lady could have easily bottled her breast milk instead of whipping it out (discreetly or not) on a plane full of people. Nothing like trapping a bunch of people on a plane and putting them in a very uncomfortable situation!
I breastfed my daughter until she started walking. After that, she went on a bottle, then to a sippy cup, then to a regular cup. She's 18 years old now and quite well adjusted.
And, we are not living in a third world country where kids up to 5 yrs old run up to their mother and just start suckin on a tit! This is America, where it's more cultured, where there are other options.
I remember a time when I was a kid at Disneyland and I saw a lady with her baby sitting on a bench. I wanted to see the baby and walked past just in time to see the woman whip out her tit for all to see. My mother was so enraged that she reported her and stood right next to the woman until security arrived and they told the lady that there were baby stations all around Disneyland where she could go to have privacy with her baby during feeding time. BTW, there are still baby stations with seating for mothers to breastfeed their babies.
Hmmm...shows up for me right under the MQ board. nm

Have been approached by 3 of the judge shows before but
you and the other have to consent to both appear. Judge Judy, Joe Brown and Judge Mathis have all contacted me. It is a win-win situation for the people because the shows pay if you win so the defendant (as in my case) if losing would win because if found in my judgement, the judge show would pay. This was a previous case, not this particular 1. Each show has runners that go to the court houses and pull the different cases, that is how they get their clients.
Me, too. Have never watched any of those kinds of shows. nm
s
Missed these shows yesterday...sm
Anything good happen? Did Nick reappear? Please update me...
19yo that only shows up when she needs money.sm
She expects everything handed to her. I actually really do not know why as we never did anything close to that. She moved out to live with her grandparents at 17 (after GED). They give and give. I keep telling them that it is not a way for her to learn, and I think they are finally getting the picture. (They cut off her gas card.) She only comes to myself and dad when she needs money. I love her and always will, but this is the way she is. I have 2 other children (younger) and they have already learned money is not handed to them. They do their chores, etc. and they get to participate in sports or whatever they want. They have their own cell phones (at a reduced cost of course as it is help for them to have it). I just will never understand my oldest kiddo's attitude.
yep - apparently - and he's on many talk shows..sm
This dude spews on certain talk shows and certainly on his blog and I just don't like him and then he never shuts up either........*lol*
Is anyone else watching the new singing shows?
There are two of them, the Singing Bee and Don't Forget the Lyrics. What fun shows! I am loving them. 
Er, house flipping shows. (nm)
.
Testing to see if this shows. Wonder why no posts on
s
You have a remote control for shows you don’t like,
that is why they are made, to change channels.
At awards shows, she's ALWAYS paired up with somebody better, too...sm
Duet with Tina...duet with Prince....trio with JHud and the other Dreamgirl...
That is the only way my husband shows affection. .sm
It breaks my heart sometimes. He especially likes to sneak up on my while I am doing dishes and the kids are watching tv. I hate it because I know that means he wants sex and will hound me until he gets it. He wants it once during the week and once on weekends. Once the kids are asleep, he will pester me until I give in or we get into an argument because I don't feel like it. He use to tell me he loved me every day and give me a kiss at night and in the morning. Now, it's nothing but the groping and sex. I think he considers it foreplay! He is otherwise a good husband. I am hoping as he gets older (he is 32 and I am 40), that it will get better. Right now it seems to be getting worse!
