Never had a cat before? You are in for a real treat (sm)
Posted By: Old Timer on 2007-03-27
In Reply to: My 6-month old kitty cat had surgery today. - Never had a cat before her, and we just love her.-
Cats are just so cool. I have 3 dogs and my 20 year old cat just died in Feb. They work their way into your heart just like dogs do, but in many ways are so much easier to deal with. And they have this way of looking at you when you give them the "wrong" food that day, like you have just totally lost your mind. If you're gone for a few days, your dogs will be so excited to see you when you get back. Cats will act like they don't care, and are just so uninterested that you came back (till an hour or so later when they decide to "forgive" you. As you can probably see, I miss my baby. Best of luck with yours.

TLR- ice cream treat
And by the way thanks to some of the ones that don't mind reading them!!
I decided to take a much deserved break a lot earlier than usual from the craziness going on today and plus it was so beautiful out I couldn't sit any longer. Cupid and I went to Bruesters Ice Cream for a treat. He was sooo excited he ran up to the stand!! I think he knew something special was waiting there for him! It was the first time we went to there so he didn't know what was there yet. The first thing the girl asked me was if I wanted a doggie dish. When he got it, there was a little dog biscuit stuck in the icecream. It was so cute. I hope your having a good evening, later.
Just found the best cat treat EVER -- sm
it's called Kitty Kaviar-- but I think it should be called Kitty Krack, LOL
It is thin dried flakes of real tuna and my cats cannot get enough (and they are fairly finicky).
My male kitty is diabetic and with these treats he lets me test him and give him his shots without any fuss whatsoever.
No not treat yourself -- see message
I type for a psychologist well known in my area whose caseload is 75% ADD. He does a lot of natural remedies and supplements. A good book is Brain Gym that helps with exercises to train the brain to be focuses. A lot of exercise is necessary. Lots of protein, DEH, etc. But without getting him evaluated you are shooting in the dark as to what will and what will not help. Insurance pays for it. But there are a lot of natural supplements and things you can do but you need an expert to work with you and not just an MD that puts them on medications. I have two nephews that have it, they went to this doctor and diet, exercise and supplements have helped tremendously and now in high school they are off medication. If you had an infection or a medical problem you would go to a doctor and not treat yourself so don't treat this yourself. Patti
They say docs won't treat them?
geez, I'm afraid...
trick or treat?
I'm figuring the way this day is going that I will turn off my lights, sit in the basement and eat 2 bags of Snickers instead of handing it out tonight. I hear those little candy bars up in the pantry calling my name. I figure I am saving the neighborhood kids from cavities, weight gain, stomachaches and a night of bouncing off the walls. I know they'll thank me later.
What did YOU do for HIM???, does he treat u good every other day? nm

can you treat a UTI over the counter?
I am one of those lucky MTs that dont have health insurance and that makes it pretty annoying when I have probelms. Like right now I am sure that I have a UTI, but dont want to go to the ER and get that $600 bill. I bought some AZO and cranberry vitamin. I figure I will drinks lots of water and see what happens... any suggestions? Thanks a lot!
Michael Vicks ... I wish I could treat him the same. sm
I'm sorry but I am writing letters to every single sponsor of his and to the NFL and the Falcons.
If I could, I would treat him the same way he has allowed those poor dogs to be treated.
I would treat them like Paul Revere (SM)
Make em history! You are better than that. I used to always try to figure out why someone acted a certain way. . like you I wondered what the problem was. Found out from a wonderful psychologist who helped me over a terribly painful relationship that went bad . . It DOES NOT MATTER WHY. . what matters is that it happened. You need to move on. They are just not nice. I would think you took up bowling in the first place to have a good time! GO FOR IT elsewhere! GOOD LUCK!
Thanks for the treat...awesome photos!! nm

don't enable him to treat this way - especially with child to see
nm
But did you and your no account brother treat her

What a nice treat...I get stuff sent to me..
that way from Philly, cheesesteaks, hoagies, good pretzels, TastyKakes...it's nice to be able to get something good from home when you live so far away!
So then you WOULD treat a woman like a criminal?
what's that phrase, judge not lest...?
Treat everyone as if we all worked in the same office.

If you have not yet seen the deer and cat video treat yourself to
something wonderful. Copy and paste and enjoy. This is truly beautiful.

what is a fast solution and a long-term fix? thanks!
What's your favorite Christmas treat/candy, etc?
Mine are the 'chocolate oranges' and Andes mints.
For homemade stuff, can't beat fudge, Chex mix and Christmas sugar cookies.
What're your favorites?
Does he treat you badly in front of your children or is it
usually "behind closed doors?"
Ladies, any assistance on how to treat herpes
My daughter has just sent me some information on something called Lectroject, apparently it is something that is used to inject medicine directly into the herpes blister?? Never heard of it but has anyone else. Any suggestions at all on how to treat herpes outbreak on the lips? Thanks so much!
Silly Girl shouldn't have to treat her
husband like a dog or a child. After all, she is his wife, not his mother. If she wants a pet, she can go to the animal shelter and get a dog. She married a man and he needs to act like one. It sounds like she gives and gives, and he takes. I think Silly Girl should start taking care of herself for a change.
Rice-A-Roni, the San Francisco treat!
My favorite Christmas treat is January 2. lol. be glad when it is over.

He has "stud tail" but don't remember how to treat it. Call your

Doesn't matter what religion they are, the Indians treat

sounds immature and simple minded; treat him as such.

When puppy does her business where you want her to, reward her with a piece of food treat.
And when she pees in house, use paper towels and then place paper towels (soiled) to the area in the yard where you want her to do her business. Dogs tend to prefer where they smell the odor. Be patient. This dog is young. Confine her to an area where the floor will not be damage (tile or vinyl). Take her out six times away,including first thing in AM, right before bed, after she eats her meals. Pull water up a few hours before bedtime. Do enjoy your new puppy dog.
I do occasional exercise & treat myself to good chocolate. I'm not completely agoraphobic,

Agreed; if they ask you to treat something stat, it should be compensated as stat. nm

If all this is for real...
I can't imagine that you haven't ripped her superior little head off! What a nerve this woman has. Stand up for you and your child. She is NO better than you are just because you chose to raise your children differently than she did! I am more like you, in raising my children that is, they do not have a lot of structured activities...my 7 YO just wants to be a kid and play! I don't force him to play with anyone he doesn't want to...and you shouldn't feel like you have to force your child to play with anyone he doesn't want to.
Take a stand against this woman...tell her what you think and let it go...what's she gonna do, ground you?
Definitely real.

Up and real
We've had ours up since the day after Thanksgiving along with all the inside and outside of the house decorated at the same time.
let's see, what is more REAL,
googling something
or experiencing with knowledge 1st hand???
Real Dad
My husband met his real Dad after 20 years of searching. We live on the East coast. His Dad lives on the West coast. My MIL did not want him him meeting his Dad for the same reason.
I can tell you this, his Dad was very receptive of him. He answered some questions that neither my MIL nor anyone else could answer. It was a nice reunion.
Please disregard your mother's opinion at this point because she is probably scorn and feels you should feel the same way. It just doesn't work that way with the child that wants to know their Dad. My husband didn't care what his Dad was like, but he wanted to see him and talk to him.
He now only talks to him occasionally, but I can say that my hubby sleeps much better at night and has learned acceptable, which has really helped emotionally with this struggle he has had all of these years wanting to know his Dad.
Even if you just write a letter explaining that you just wanted to know who he was and to make sure he is safe! Holding grudges and putting a lot of emotional junk out there at first is sort of a turn-off in my opinion, but in time, you'll find your answers.
Good luck to you, and so glad you at least know he's safe and has a family that loves him, albeit he left out on you. Hold those kinds of feelings in your heart instead of holding grief or demeaning feelings because the "good stuff" lasts longer and doesn't cause as much heartache!
Take care and God Bless!
Is this for real?
This could be anybody...and probably is NOT a young expecting couple, I'd bet...wow, how unbelievable.. BTW, how did you find this? Just curious. Guess I'm just not very Internet savvy, cause I can't find anything worth looking at out there...
Get real
It is unrealistic to expect parents to pick up a high schooler - chances are both parents work.
You are missing the point here - the schools are not doing job!!!! Kids don't feel safe at school because they are not safe - and that's the fault of we adults. We have to demand better accountability from the school officials, including the school board. Even if it means some of the Dads - or Moms if they feel qualified - patrol the school themselves as a voluntary security force. It's pathetic that our kids have to even think about protecting themselves from other kids, but that is the world we have handed over to them.
HomeMT, I applaud you for protesting your child's suspenson. I think she should be allowed to carry the pepper spray. I would get her into a self-defense class, too, just so she can learn some other methods of protecting herself. This doesn't have to martial arts, but there are 1 and 2 hour classes where they can teach you methods to protect yourself from an attacke from behind, etc. All female children should have this trainng.
I am about as real as it gets
I am putting the truth out there and if some don’t like, nothing I can do about it. No one, including this girl, is allowed to have any sort of pepper spray, knives, guns, paper cutters and if you think children are not being suspended for just having drawings, then you are not listening to the world around you. A 15 year old knows right from wrong about school issues. I do not see this parent getting anything reversed. Her child was wrong in having it and if the parent bought for her to take to school, they are wrong as well. You should read my post because I said either she or someone else pick up the child if safety is such an issue. I think in high school most children hate riding the yellow bus and would rather walk,drive or be driven to school and usually is the case now. I hold the parents resonsible for the sad state of affairs with the schools- too much pampering with Johnny and Janie. The kids have no respect for their teachers nor for their own selves.
I am not real sure about this, but---sm
I have seen advertisements for the newer digital type hearing aides that run around $1500 for each ear. good luck.

This guy doesn't need a kidney - he has taken a new job and has to learn a new route. The mom should leave him alone - if he isn't smart or resourceful enough to contact the vast number of resources that NYC has to offer tourists and new city dwellers on how to get around in Manhattan, then he isn't smart enough to have that job.
For crying out loud, some of you women just won't let go of your little boys.
I think you are for real. .
I believe what you see is for real. . I don't see these things to this extent. just a little. I think it must be a gift. though we can't undernstand it fully. . .
Are they for real?
I can't imaging a service posting a pay of 5 to 7 cents per line - I wonder how many people can (or would) work for that??
Yep - this would be for real and actually
I did take today off to drink it up with jose and lay in the pool all day not giving a flip anymore!

rent here in Miami for a studio is 2K a month - I drive my car to the store twice a month stock up and live on about $300 a month for groceries -- BTW furnished room too for $575 (small kitchenette, full bath and living/bedroom area) so quit griping and realize how lucky SOME of you do have it -- BTW - Im single, and even s/o who does not live with me has had problems with money lately -- we are both "stressing" but surviving
so you babies need to grow up and quit griping and working a weekend, 2 or 3 wouldn't hurt either.
Yes they did! And I have a real one and I
If you go on e bay, please don't get the felt ones which are fake. You need to get a real one. Though the vintage collectors (which I am) will pay top-dollar. I took a lot of time to find one and it is real wool and I love to wear it. The crinoline underneath can be found on e bay and you can put in the search as square dancing crinoline, or crinoline. Make sure it does not go below the skirt much like the wedding dress crinolines, 2 different things.
I do suggest e bay, but do not look under costumes. Look under vintage poodle skirt and make sure that your mom or someone who knows the real thing from the fake. If you are going to spend money, don't waste it. Also you can get saddle shoes, (white and black tie shoes). Believe it or not, I wear it around (I live in Florida) and may elderly women stop me and so do their husbands to thank them for the memories. BTW: Friskyfrocks vintage is one vendor on e bay who knows all about crinolines. You can e mail her and ask her anything you want to know. She is very honest. Her name is Nellie. Tell her Diane from Florida sent you. Good luck!
Are you for real?
That "all woman" robot will never experience menopause either, so why would anyone suggest she take a pill? Bashing hormones and birth control pills and feminism? I'm not sure where that all came from out of a simple question about menopause or how you even can put all of that together. Just like every woman's PMS, giving birth, work, family, marriage, etc experiences are different, so are the experiences of menopause. For those who can get through them all gracefully and without problems, I say you go girl! But for those who can't, I say if a man came up with a pill that will make all the discomfort go away, he's my new best friend. And phooey on you if you just don't get that not everyone can be (or wants to be) an "all natural girl." That doesn't make us any less "all woman" or our husbands "all man." Bravo to the women who have reached out and asked for help - too many of us don't until it's too late or we've agonized for too long. Deenibeeni, take a bow - you've earned the applause!!!
There's no real need to tell them . . .
imo, that may open the door for them to rationalize that behavior. My son's 13-year-old friend was over the other night telling us the stories that his dad and grandpa had done as a kid (fairly wild). He thought it was hilarious. This boy was thinking it was pretty cool and my husband and I both shared the thought "What's he going to do to outdo dad and grandpa?" It's okay to admit you're not perfect and you made mistakes, but to tell them might just justify it to them. We told our children drinking is an adult decision and when they are adults they can make that decision but for now it is illegal and big trouble. We also told them what consequences they would face if they were even around kids drinking. My kids love sports too much to take that chance. sex is a tougher issue, but we've explained it is also an adult situation that should not be brought into their child lives until they are adults. That is an ongoing conversation right now . . .
