There's not a single thing in the original posting asking us to pity her or that she was suing anyone. Nothing. SHe's not asking for your judgment or your forgiveness either. I'm just saying your tone is all holier than thou. Obviously you've never struggled with fat or any other addiction; I have and I didn't ask for anything from anyone else either. You're just self righteous is all I'm saying.

Oprah just had a special on the other woman....
and found it very interesting to hear from these women who had affairs with married men. Only one of the 4 women was still with a married man, while the others ended it. The psychologist on there asked her what was it in her childhood that brought her to this point in her life to feel like she didn't deserve better. You deserve better. Your child deserves better. His wife deserves better. They also said how the men tell you what you need to hear...they know what you need to hear, so he's not real. He could also be saying the same things to another woman at the same time, or maybe not, you never know. Please don't feel sad...get out now and meet the man of your dreams. He's out there waiting for you, but you're not available to him yet. You deserve more. Your child deserves more.
Yes, in my opinion, you have every right to be and I wouldn't be doing ANY favors. sm
Friends and family just don't morally do things like that to each other.
I don't know, this post down below has me thinking. What are your thoughts, woman to woman. sm
If your spouse came to you and said he was having an affair, would you be more upset if it was with a male or female? For me, definitely a female! If it were male then I would think that it had absolutely nothing to do with me and everything to do with him. I would be devastated if he were with another woman. Another poster below said she would be more upset if he were found with a male. What about you?
No wait, wait... 'mere Mom, me and my friends
can all drink it too. Come on guyz... my Mom won't mind, have a drink and have some fun. Bring the chocolate syrup! Doesn't she have big nipples. "My Dad likes 'em too and my baseball coach!

This has nothing to do with being a christian, it has more to do with group dynamics. I have to deal with it all the time with 6 women in an in-law situation. They are narrow-minded Bible-thumping bigots.I happen to be of another "denomination" and I do attend every function of theirs, weddings, funerals, all of it, receive their communion. I have had my parents die, lost my younger sister and many things happen where they could have reciprocated, yet they will not "step foot" in my church. So where is all their faith, they certainly are not practicing the do unto others. I can relate, it is a horrible way to live. Thank God, I had psychology courses and know about group dynamics, I am in the middle of a herd mentality. I could go on forever, they even have "interventions" when someone in their family wants to marry or date someone not from their denomination. They are awful. I know your pain! It's not your imagination, they hide behind their cohesive "numbers game," one speaks and all the others agree in unison. No one has a chance against this mob. It's tough to be your own person, lots of tears. And guys think it's all in our heads - NOT! Hang in, perhaps you'll have a Divine Intervention somehow.
Kangaroo. cat woman or wonder woman?

I think probably they did not have as much to put on special -
I bet that people are just not buying as much and they are having to mark it down before it ruins.
I don't think they ever threw it out - they just were able to sell it before it got old.
No, there is nothing really special about
Danny's voice and Danny in general. Very common. I have already forgotten his voice, I remember only his rock shrieks......
What brought him that far was only compassion for the death of his wife or girlfriend........
Well, isn't that just so SPECIAL.

20/20 had a special on E-Bay the other night,
warning about scam sellers - it was actually a repeat though they touted the show as new. On the test buys they ran, all the sellers who scammed them in one way or another had 98% or above feedback. The feedback means nothing, really, as there are lots of ways to remove it - i.e. paying for it to be removed, and also lots of feedback blackmail, where most buyers are too wimpy to leave a negative, as it means they will get one, too. So the feedback system is not valid at all.
I remember a 20/20 special about this...sm
I remember seeing something about this on 20/20 a couple of years back and just remember it's not always the best way to go. Doctors recommend it too fast without looking into other ways. There were women on 20/20 that wished they didn't have it done, can't remember all the reasons. Do tons of research before doing it. Good luck!
I do know a special needs trust will not

I remember seeing a special on these
odd animals many, many years ago. I was probably about 18. I found them quite upsetting, LOL. I have only seen anything about them one time since, and my impression the second time was that they were very small, like mice, instead of the larger rat-like creatures I was picturing the first time.
There are special chews that have
enzymes in them. They are sold along with the toothbrushes and toothpaste at the pet stores. You are using doggy toothpaste when you try to brush them, I assume. Even if you only get a few swipes of that enzyme paste on the teeth and feel like you aren't doing any good, it actually does make a difference, judging by the comments my vet made about my Misha's teeth. We did do it from a young age, but not often, and she would only tolerate a little bit. But she had great teeth for her age.
Another good way to keep plaque down is to use true raw bones and let them gnaw on those. They work pretty well also.
But I do see the most benefit from any attempt at brushing, and also of course when I've gotten them cleaned under anesthesia if they needed something else done.
There is something special about wintertime.
It's hard work getting things prepped for this weather...but when you come inside in at the end of a day--it's a good tired, a satisfied-feeling kinda tired.
Of course that specialness lasts about 48 hours (or at the first slip and fall on the ice) and then it is so not fun anymore! Anyone down south wanna swap joints, er residences, with me for a few months or so during the winter, you know where to find me!
Me too! I feel so special! (nm)

Thanks - they are running a special
It's for 11 pieces including brushes, video, etc. I'm starting a new job in a couple weeks and if I don't get it by then I'll check out WalMart. Thanks for the tip.
There is a special place for them
The worst crimes committed are abuse to children and to animals. In the bible it does state that hurting or maiming an innocent animal is one of the worst sins, the first being abuse to children. These are innocent creatures who are here to help us and give us comfort and love. They never ask for anything, are always there for us and never complain. It sickens me to my stomach to hear of abuse to animals. When I was younger I had a dalmatian pup. He was outside one day, fenced in, and got out through a small place in the fence. Someone in our neighborhood saw him, hit him with their car, and left him to die. I was heartbroken and it took me a long time to get over it. I would not like to be the person that will have to stand before God in judgment when it comes it comes to abusing these blessed animals. Only a coward and a bully would commit such an act.
We did not do parties except on special
occasion birthdays, normally just took the kids to see their grandparents as they did want to see them on their birthday. However, it is your tradition and if your in-laws do not want to participate leave it up to them. Invite them and they can choose what to do. Don't change your traditions because they don't "approve."
There's a special collar
I bought mine at Petsmart or Petco. It has spikes on it that grip into the dog's neck. Sounds painful, but it WORKS. And my dog has never yelped, not even once, so I don't think it actually is painful (my dog is a yelper at the slightest amount of discomfort, like trying to wash out his ears).
Anyway, look in the collar aisle at Petco or Petsmart for it. It's around $10-15 and it will make your walks peaceful!

Anyone ever been trustee of a Special Needs Trust?
I've been the trustee of my older sister now since 2001 when our mother died. She is mentally retarded because she fried her brain on LSD and mescalin when she was a teenager, also is bipolar and on SSDI.
She just called me to say she is on the edge of losing all of her benefits, including her state-funded housing, because her love toy went and blabbed to the housing authority that she was getting this "extra" money and it's a huge amount. Well, it's not a huge amount by any means, not even $40,000 to last her lifetime. I'm sure she and her benefits are protected via the whole category of "Special Needs Trust" but to say my blood pressure is up is an understatement of the decade.
I just want to drive 8 hours to smack the sh*t out of her and her G-spot Johnny (did I mention she's also hypersexual?!) boy toy. Now, I'm not a violent person, but the attorney told me that the government could also come after me if they feel there has been any sort of fraud here. I'm not the one that did drugs, yet for some reason this responsibility was tossed in my lap. Hmmm...could be that whole atheist thing and this is mom's retribution.
So, anyone know anything about Special Needs Trusts I should be particularly concerned about?
Has anyone bought the special toothbrushes...
Okay, way off the wall and out there. Have any of you bought the fancy toothbrushes they try to sell you at the dentist's office? Mine in particular is pushing Rota-dent. I REALLY want the results, etc., but $120.00? Is it really any different than the electric spin brush you get off the drugstore shelf?
I'm going in tomorrow to start some extensive and expensive dental work, and I want to take the best care I can, but again, is it worth $120.00 or should I just stop by Walmart on my way home?
They look pretty, I wear them, if I am going somewhere special.
To make them look real, I stole an idea from Marilyn Monroe. I cut the lashes in half and then I use the resulting minilashes and put them starting from mideye to the edge of my eye nearest the ear. Be careful just to put a little glue. Then, you can put eye liner over it. I have very blonde (almost platinum) hair and eyebrows, so it can't be heavy handed. Also if you use the half lashes, you can put a light color like cream under your eye brow arch and on the lid, with a bit of brown in the crease. Blend it together and it will look glamorous yet natural. Only you will know, because it looks like a lot of mascara on the edge, or you are blessed with long eyelashes! Have fun with it. I do.
Your cabin sounds so special
I love where I live because I do have animals around. Some deer were standing close by my home when I started out the other morning, a bunny ran across the road the other evening and I told my husband my home is magical. Coming home the other night I could have sworn the moon was sitting right behind my home so big and bright. I have loads of birds and squirrels and I feed those.
It's always crowded but more so on special shopping days. nm

I got to get back to typing her but need special prayers
my DIL and grandson are in flight from Hawaii to LAX to be with her mother, his grandmother in the last few days of her life. Her name is Pat. She lives in Placentia. She is in the hospital right now but wants to come home when they get here. My son also in HI, scheduled to leave within 10-12 days to Iraq but he is having some medical issues. Please pray they will not be of a serious nature. Please pray, he is thinking his men will think he is faking this. It is just all the stress he is under....Thank you in advance
Wonderful news!!!!! Special Olympics

My husband built special houses outdoors for
our cats. We have strays, which we have collected over the years. He built a couple small houses that look like doghouses. He installed infrared heat bulbs inside each house -the kind you can buy at a pet store to keep reptiles warm. He bought guards that go around the bulbs so that the animals don't actually touch the bulbs, which I think you can get at a Lowe's or Home Depot. It may sound complicated, but it did not take him long at all. We have used these houses for years and the cats love them. I can look out my back window on a cold day to see 6 cats(3 in each house)keeping warm in those houses. A girl I work with liked them so much she had him make one for her cats. Gee, maybe we should start a business!
I remember mine and he certainly holds no special place
I could probably use every horrible word for him. I was just another "trophy" for him to brag to his friends about. We parted on horrible terms and when we'd see each other in public we'd be screaming horrible things at each other for everyone to hear. Gosh and it's been almost 30 years (yes I was very immature but still no reason for him to treat me the way he did). It was my first time and he told all our friends I gave him some terrible sexual disease (of which I didn't even know what that was back then). I just say good riddens to him.
I am a CASA (court appointed special advocate) and I personally see nothing (sm)
wrong with mothers working at home while their children are there. For goodness sake, the mother can get up and check on them, the children can come to mommy with a problem. They are not unattended. If I were investigating a case as a possible neglect situation where the children were at home with mom working I would have to laugh.
I have seen many more neglectful moms who were doing nothing, I mean nothing except talking on the phone, watching soaps, napping, engaging in all sorts of sexual behaviors, using drugs or alcohol, etc. These parents are by far the more neglectful and causing more harm to their children.
The children of MTs are observing mom multi-task and yet they still have the advantage of having her there to break up an argument, put on a bandaid, etc.
With all the horror stories of day care anymore how can you even suggest they are harming their children.
the length is about 80 minutes long, per the client, no special format.

Don't wait.
The attacks will definitely become more frequent and more sensitive. Even limiting your diet to bland foods will eventually not be good enough.
The pain is from the stones trying to pass into the biliary duct. It can be devastating if that happens.
I had open gallbladder surgery. It was painful, but I had no complications. I'm glad I had it done.
Don't wait. Infection can set in; necrosis can start.
Wait!!!!
I have the thickest, curliest, kinkiest, frizziest hair going. I was ready to pull it out when I saw something on the Today show. They said sodium laureth sulfate causes hair to be frizzy. I went out and bought organic shampoo and you would not beleive the change. I use Frizz Ease spray leave on conditioner and only wash it about once a week. I am sooo much happier with it now. I personally am too scared to make a change because if you don't like it, there is nothing you can do. Good luck whatever you decide. You could try this first and see if it helps.
No, but can't wait to see it!
And he may be targeting the pharmaceutical companies next. That ought to be good, too:)
N/T - Can Wait
LOL. If you to talk about the show or the new season, please feel free to email me privately (as can the rest of the posters).
Thanks. Cannot wait to here from him. nm

Oh boy could hardly wait to add my
doggie's picture to the forum
Meet Pinkie, she lives in Hawaii right now.
Oh, BTW, that's my grandson Cameron with her!! Luv him a lot too!!!
Thank you very much!!!! Can't wait to try them out! NM
..
Please wait
Please see a counselor before any sort of meeting with the other people! I'm not sure that it is a good idea. I know you have a need to meet this woman, but I'm not sure that it will be good for you in the long run. Please reconsider! Best wishes.
Can't wait to see it!...nm

oh, wait....
Thank you, I am going to just wait and see
if there is an appropriate time and I realize that may never happen. This is something so personal, I just want so much to share in their joy without judgement. When it happens it happens. I am just sooooo glad there are people out there that don't judge. We need sooo much more of that in this world!
