French fries and vanilla ice cream! nm
x
I'm going down same road - please answer questions for me-sm
I have no other option but to get this done. I have been putting this off for awhile now, terrified of dentists.

1. Do you feel better healthwise since you got the dentures? Sometimes, I feel I will just generally feel better and maybe have more energy if I get this done.

2. Did they pull all top ones at once or in a few visits? Seems like such a traumatic thing to me to have done, maybe it's not so bad though?

3. What kind of anesthetic did you have, just novocaine or nitrous oxide or completely out?

3. Do you feel better about how they look and happy about having it done, now that it's over?

Thanks so much.
Just Answer The Simple Questions --

1.  What treatment did your daughter receive?


2.  Will/did she require plastic surgery?


3.  You say you filed a police report, what was the police's resolution?


These are very simple questions.  Yet, when asked in the posts below, you choose to ignore them.  It's what makes people suspect that you are just in it for the money and that no real harm was done.


You first claimed that you just wanted them to pay your daughter's medical bills, that they shouldn't benefit from your insurance that you pay for.  Yet, later, you state that the $800 would be for pain and suffering for your daughter (as your insurance has already paid it).  Lastly, you state that $87 would be reimbursement for your medical bills and the rest would be pain and suffering for your daughter.  Pain and suffering is not something one generally reimburses another for without a court to determine the extent one is due. 


The only one suffering here is your conscience!  Again, I say, answer the 3 questions above, or are you afraid of what it might reveal?


Hi, Kelly., answer tio your questions..........sm
They say it is more or less a forever thing. But as soon as you have good results, you can take breaks. When you notice that the hairloss starts again, restart the treatment.
My problem was not severe, I just noticed some hairloss.

Minoxidil works in that way that it is a vasodilator, therefore the drop in BP, and it widens the arteries, also in the scalp, so the follicles get more blood supply and new hair sprouts.

As even your doctor recommended it, you should have no problem inspite of your thyroid issue.

At least you can try it out.
But be patient, as the process in the beginning takes time, as the follicles have to be 'revived' first.
But if you can get through the first 3-4 months, you will see results.
I know that a lot of people use this.
Rogaine and Propecia are the 2 treatments with proven results.
But Propecia is in tablet form and ONLY for men, as it contains testosterone.


answer the questions game for mimi
How old are you?

How long have you been an MT?

What state are you in?

Is it cold where you are tonight/today?

What is your favorite thing to do in your spare time?

Who did you most want to be like when you were a kid?

If you weren't an MT what would your career choice be?

If you could go on vacation to anywhere in the world where would you go?

Last but not least...

If you won 1 million dollars and couldn't spend it on yourself what would you do with it?

(this should keep you busy for a while Mimi!!)

You could post an update and answer some of the questions raised?

Cheeseburger and fries casserole
Made this earlier in the week and my guys loved it

1.5 lbs ground beef
1 small onion chopped
1 can cream of mushroom
1 can cheddar cheese soup
16 oz frozen french fries
1 lb grated cheddar cheese

Brown ground beef and onions then add soups and mix thoroughly. Add salt, pepper, garlic salt to taste. place in 9x13 pan and top with fries. Bake in 375 oven for 25-30 minutes until fries start to brown. Top with cheese and return to oven for 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted.

To lighten this up, use lean ground beef, healthy request soups and low fat cheese.
I used to dip my fries in chocolate milkshake! Yum! - nm

Short answer: Yes, it's VERY rude. Long answer inside.
I wouldn't want my husband to ask, either. In fact, if he did and the people said yes, I still wouldn't go and stay with them, because I'd feel like they were pressured. Believe me, if they wanted you to come and stay with them at any point in the last 10 years, they'd have asked you. I, too, live near a vacation destination, and I hate it when people ask to stay with me. They're the rude ones for asking, but it puts me in an uncomfortable position of trying to politely say no. And it seems that when I do say no, the thwarted "guest" then complains to everyone else in our social circle that we are cheap, mean and unwelcoming.
Tell your husband to crack open the wallet and pay for a hotel.
.the French do it your described way
making you not nazi-like *l*......french really do it the way you described.....in France. 
por favor is *if you please* in FRENCH......

ROFL


French Press..
I have never personally had one, but a physician I worked for did and he would grind his own beans every morning and make his own coffee in it, rather than just the regular stuff we drank. I believe I tasted it once and it was very good, stronger than the regular coffee but of course that may depend on the type of beans you grind, etc. He was a coffee-fanitic!
french press
Love mine! I started with a glass one but then found a thermal one which will keep the coffee hot longer.
RVSP is French for
Respond if you please (respondevous si vou ple)not positive of my spelling here)!

That doesn't mean 'respond if it pleases you' it means kindly respond either way.

As to the rudeness, it could possibly be ignorance/indifference - each generation seems to be less well-mannered.
French toast sm
I always made my own either with Texas toast or regular, but I happened upon some Murray's French Toast sticks at Wal-Mart one Mother's Day and bought it just because there was a time frame debate and used it in a pinch since it was already made, etc. It went over better than my own and saved me a big mess and have used these sticks from then on, just pop them in a flat pan and then when they go, open another box and pop them in the oven when I see the dish getting empty. Just a thought. Several different kinds of juice available always helps as well, of course. Sounds like fun! Bacon is another big hit, even though it's not healthy, the guys really go for it and you can make it ahead. Time is the only problem, with people arriving at different times, some things have to be precooked.
Baked French Toast
I made this Thanksgiving weekend for breakfast. You start it the night before so it can sit overnight in the fridge. It is so simple and quick, and is absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it!
Note: I sprinkled cinnamon on the top just before baking. Can't have French Toast without cinnamon!

BAKED FRENCH TOAST
Ingredients:
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
8 slices of 3/4 inch thick Italian bread, cut in half.
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions:
Mix eggs, milk, brown sugar and vanilla. Pour half of the mixture in the bottom of a 13 X 9 pan. Lay the bread out in the pay and pour the rest of the mixture on top. Flip the bread over so that it's all coated. Cover and let sit in the fridge overnight.

Melt butter in a second 13 x 9 inch pan. Stir the brown sugar and maple syrup into the butter. Move your soaked bread into the pan with the butter mixture. Cook at 350 for 30-45 minutes, depending on desired brownness.

Has anyone used a French press coffee maker? sm
if so, did you like it or dislike it?  Thanks!
I doubt this explanation....roux is french

Roux in French means to cook equal amounts of butter/flour together to make/thicken sauces.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roux


However, medically speaking here's a descript. of what name means/comes from:


The name (Roux-en-Y) comes from the restructuring of the small intestine to form a Y-shaped structure. One arm of the Y carries digestive juices and the other carries food. The two arms come together farther down the intestine where digested food can be absorbed.

Adam is all over the internet with his own French kissing but
not with a member of the opposite sex. Oh-la-la
I thought "s'il vous plait" was if you please in French.

Rachel Ray had the cutest looking french toast cups yesterday. sm
She soaked the bread in eggs, milk, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon mixture and put the bread into a muffin pan so that they made a little cup (you cut a slit in the bread and it forms a cup when put in the muffin hole). Baked them and then filled them with fruit and topped with maple syrup and bacon pieces. Looked really good. I am going to try that this year!
On vacation I had Bananas Foster french toast. Breakfast buzz! nm

I've been told I have bats in my attic...and that I'm a french fry short of a happy meal, too!

French toast using texas test bar-b-que bread. Yummy. Potato casserole is sm
the best, too!
southern style potatoes frozen (ore-ida)
1 can cream of chicken soap
8 ounces sour cream
1 stick butter
1 package mild cheddar cheest
mix all ingredients and bake for 45 minutes

Then if you want to add a meat such as ham or bacon you can do that.
Questions

I have breastfed and am currently breast feeding and would like to ask you


If you were on the air plan which would you prefer the mother breastfeeding her child to comfort and keep him/her quiet in this cramped uncomfortable environment or to listen to this child scream bloody murder making your trip totally unbearable???? 


Some thoughts:


Children that young dont know how to clear their ears when changing altitudes and it easier to either have them sleeping or sucking.


Also some young children that are breastfed refuse bottles completely.


Older babies do not like to have their faces covered while eating they want to see their mommy and surroundings.


Personally:


I am the mother of a ten month old that will be flying (on a long flight) for the first time next month.  I plan on breastfeeding him if needed and if I do need to I will have my older daughter there to hold a small blanket up as a sort of shielding wall. I am more than ready to be done breastfeeding and am working very hard to get him there as well but because his schedule doesnt agree with mine I dont think that I should be barred from traveling on a plane and I think the other passengers on the plane would prefer I comfort my child to the best of my ability so that they can try and enjoy their trip as well.


The sucky part about is I will be on the mentioned airlines soooooo may be my son wont get to meet his grandparent for the first time because my child comes first always!!!!  Take care everyone and enjoy your holidays I am climbing off my soap box now


you need to ask yourself 2 questions sm
1. Can the bridesmaids comfortably wear a strapless dress (not everybody can)?
2. Do the shoulders need to be covered if the wedding is in a church?

I'd choose number 2.
Two questions

Has she been anywhere that she could have come in contact with bedbugs? (stayed at a motel, slept over at a friend's house)


Is it possible she has been in contact with poison ivy?


We went through a similar problem with my husband a while ago. He has to travel sometimes for his job, and several years ago he picked up some bedbugs from a hotel.


Since then, we have moved to a new house and he got a new bed. When he started itching again we were concerned it was bedbugs, but the rash was similar to how you describe your daughter's rash, and we finally figured out he had probably gotten into some poison ivy in our back yard.


Good luck - I hope you figure out the cause (and cure) soon.

questions
I think a lot depends on your specific circumstances. I got an apartment because he refused to move out. I had planned it for months. Legally though if you leave and the house is in both your names, that's not good because he'll get the house.

As far as the kids, so much depends on their ages but you'd be surprised how much they already intuitively know. Just be honest with them and make sure they know they are loved by both of you, and that none of this is their fault. Give them as much stability as possible and once they see you are happier, their lives will be too.
There are a lot of questions here,
1 being the fact that this "nanny" was supposed to be with the 16-year-old. The police said they are sticking with their story, the Travolta camp saying differently. Supposedly this child had two (2) nannies that were supposed to be with him at all times. If a cover up, it has a lot to do with it.
Some questions sm
Boy this is a tough situation. My first thoughts are to ask you if you feel he has been a good husband. In other words, if this DID happen 17 years ago, perhaps he has changed his ways and become a better partner. However, you indicate you think he's lying to you so I'm wondering if you have trust issues even today. You really need to sit down and have a long heart to heart with hubs and clear this up because it's not easy to throw away 17 years of a marriage and children together.
Well, more questions then
If this only happens once a month, or approximately every 28 days....

How long has it been going on?

Is she gaining weight?

Is there a boyfriend in her past or present?

I've had friends who got pregnant at 14. It happens. And nobody had a clue that anything was going on.

Sorry if I ask the obvious questions, but ...
Are you providing scratching posts loaded with catnip, fun toys, that kind of thing? I have had maybe a dozen cats over the years, none of them declawed, and none ever touched any of my furniture (some of it leather to boot)because I started them when they were young with taking them to the claw posts, praising them there, providing toys, etc. Give it a try before you declaw, please!!! Good luck.
thanks for all the answers to my questions--sm
I appreciate the input, even though it saddens me that this would even happen anywhere in the USA!
Common questions that men ask

Questions that I've been commonly asked in the "dating world" since I'm single.


"Why arent you married"


"Do you want kids?"


"Why hasn't someone snatched you up"


"Do you date?"


or when the guy states...


"I'm a really nice guy"


"I'm a great catch"


"I've always been too busy to meet someone special until now"


Another thing..for some reason, I find divorced men who have kids living with their mother to be a turn off.
I feel that they made their families and now they are dating while the brunt of child care is now on their ex wife.
Maybe it's ignorant of me, I don't know. I really admire men who LIVE with their children or I'd prefer to date men who didnt have children at all.


I guess the purpose of this post is mostly a rant..anyone identify with any of this?


I have the same questions except it's a second marriage? SM

A friend of mine is getting married for the second time.  The first time around it was a huge, and I mean HUGE, affair with an engagement party, bridal shower, bachelor and bachelorette parties, huge Catholic wedding with a huge reception with food and free booze, etc.  They registered at Macy's and expected everyone to get their presents from there.  There China was over $100 for a place setting!


The couple divorced and now she is getting married again and has sent out invitations to all the festivities.  She's planning another huge wedding and she has registered again at Macy's!  Now, personally I feel this is just wrong.  I think a small tasteful wedding is in order for the second go round and I don't think it is at all necessary to register anywhere for the second wedding.  How much China can one person use?  I mean, she got almost everything in her divorce!


I'm sort of a down to earth, pratical kind of person so Wal-Mart dishes are fine with me, so I guess maybe I'm not the best person to understand wedding traditions and etiquette, but do I really need to go to Macy's and get another expensive wedding gift?


Lots of questions

1. How old is the first house? The one with the sewing room and the carpet coming up?


2. How many sq ft is the second house - the newer one?


3. Have the rest of the houses in your neighborhood appreciated 66% in the last five years?  (from $75,000 to $125,000)


Your husband has a good idea about putting the money in savings for six months to make sure you can afford to pay a mortgage that is twice what you are paying now. And after six months, you will have $1800 more to put down on the house.


This is strictly personal experience - but last summer we moved from a 25-year-old house to a brand new one. We lived in the 25yo house for 12 years, and the money we spent remodeling and updating (+ original price) it would have bought us a brand new house of the same size. So I would say go for the newer house if it comes to a choice. Older houses can be a LOT of work.


OTOH, you say your husband likes woodworking. If you're willing to live in a house that is in a perpetual state of remodeling...go for it!


Some important questions
Are there people around who can look in on the grandparents and get back with you? If I were unable to get in touch with grandparents, aunts, siblings or the like and had always been able to, I would contact the police to get them to intervene. I would think they could check up just to ease your mind and make sure they are ok. Oh, by the way, you might text or leave message on cousins phones since you are unable to hear from them this is your plan-- It is surprising how putting this out there will get the attention you are wanting. I just recently got some wonderful results from a person not responding to my emails, realtor to be exact- told him what I planned on doing, no need for him to reply, 4th email and that afternoon a phone call and an email. Works wonders!
Never heard that before. Questions sm
Do you only use this to pretreat clothes before putting into the washer or do you actually add it to the laundry right in the washer like you would bleach? I've been looking for an alternative to bleach as well, as I can't stand my clothes, sheets, etc. smelling like bleach.

Also, if you add it into a load of laundry, how much do you use for a full load?

Thanks a lot!
FIL in hospital. What questions should I ask? (SM)

My 72yo FIL was transferred to the trauma unit in a bigger city this past Saturday because of a fall and head injury he sustained Saturday morning.


Since he has been there (more than 48 hours now), he has not eaten and is not receiving a dextrose drip or the like through his IV. They only took complete x-rays, CT, and MRI on Sunday afternoon. The first time a doctor/resident evaluated him was on Sunday evening sometime after 9 p.m. Also, he is somewhat delusional. He knows his name and where he is, but he is grabbing at things in the air, wants to take the trash out, etc. This is definetly abnormal for him. He has always been alert and oriented.


My question is this: Should it take 36 hours before he is evaluated by a doctor? Is it normal not to give him any type of nourishment (no food, no IV) for more than 48 hours? Is it normal to wait 2 days to see a neurologist (who won't be in to see him until late today) when the main reason he was transferred was for neurology consult? I understand he went in on the weekend, but should it take this long to get answers.


Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Answers to Questions
She's the same age as all the kids in her class. She started kindergarten at the right time (she wasn't one of the young ones). She's not into sports very much, but she does have a few extra cirricular activities. I think she's just disappointed because she never had these problems before. I wish she wouldn't be too hard on herself.
I have a couple of questions
When is your daughter's b-day? I.E. is she "young" or "old" for her grade? Also, is she involved in a lot of extra curricular activities, sports, etc? I had a child in advanced math and one was just too tough so he took it later on. Really I see no harm in waiting either.
Fibromyalgia Questions

I had low back surgery in June of 2006.  About 5 days after my surgery, I had a huge muscle ball up in my back.  Then everything went to pot.  I finally was sent to pain management and they diagnosed me with myofascial pain syndrome. 


I know the dx of fibromyalgia is very skeptical.  All I know is I feel like I have been run over by a truck.  My joints are killing me in my hips, knees and ankles.  They are constantly popping and cracking.  My neck muscles are constantly sore to the point where I cannot hardly move my neck.  I even had 1 bout where all my muscles in my neck, down to my scapula and left arm locked up.  I have very little use of my left arm with lifting because of pain in my left shoulder.  Sometimes I feel like my body is misaligned. 


Can you tell me if this is consistent with fibromyalgia symptoms and pain?


Poll questions...

1.  What ages are your kids?


13 and 8 (boy/girl).



2.  Do they have their own cell phone?


13-year-old just got cell phone last September.  8-year-old does not have one.  He's been responsible with the cell phone, and I like him having it in case I need him right away as he skateboards a lot outside with his friends in the neighborhood.



3.  Do they have their own TV and or computer in their room?  If so, are there set hours they're allowed to use these:

Both of my children have TVs in their room.  They watch it mostly in the evening hours when they are settling down for bed.  The computer they use is centrally based and my husband mainly monitors that one with the parental controls.

4. Do they receive an allowance?  If so, are they required to do chores to receive this?


They do not get a regular allowance.  I'm fortunate in that they really don't ask for much as they get what they want for their birthday or Christmas.  However, I will on occasion get them something special if we are out and about "doing my deliveries" and they are with me.  My son has to take care of the trash throughout the house twice a week.  My daughter has no chores.  I want them to focus on school and just being kids.  I was made to do chores from the time I was 5 due to my mother's legs (she had severe arthritis), and I was not always allowed to go places for this reason.  I figure in due time they'll have their own homes.  They watch me and will help if asked, but have no specific chores to do. 


good questions
I have a soon to be 13yo son and an 11yo daughter.

We added my son to our cell phone plan last year when he was in 6th grade. It made it nice for when he was finished with his extracurricular activities and could call me plus the kids visit with their father and thought it would be nice for him to have that with him also. Plan on doing the same for my daughter next year, as long as her grades are similar (son gets straight A's) and she continues to help around the house, etc.

They both have TVs in their bedrooms but no computers. We have been discussing the possibility of a computer for them to use but it will NOT be put in their bedrooms. I have explained to my son that there are websites he may be tempted to go to and if a computer is in his room, it may be more tempting. I want to know exactly what they are doing on it IF we do decide to get one. Have a friend who can set up parental things on there (sorry I'm computer illiterate)... and I would like to possibly have my friend discuss with both the kids the potential risks involved with being on the internet, sexual predators, etc.

No allowance here either. I have explained to them that we are a family and mom doesn't get paid to keep up the house either, it is a group effort. They do have savings accounts. They put bday money and christmas money, report card money, etc. in there by their choice. I have been considering the possibility when they get older of giving them a set amount of money each week to pay for lunch, fun stuff or whatever so they can "manage" this.
Love the questions!

1.  What ages are your kids?   Daughter is 8, Son is 6



2.  Do they have their own cell phone?  No.  They have no reason for one at this age.  I can see once in Middle School possibly, but not now. 



3.  Do they have their own TV and or computer in their room?  If so, are there set hours they're allowed to use these:  Each of them have a TV in their room that are only for DVD/video before bed.  They are not hooked up to dish for regular TV.  They do have a computer that they share in daughters room that is NOT hooked up to internet.  They have computer games that they are allowed to play on their so as not to tie up my computer!  They are allowed to play on the weekends on DH's laptop... daughter LOVES webkinz and son LOVES nick.com, but these are always monitored so they are not on something that they are not to be on.



4. Do they receive an allowance?  If so, are they required to do chores to receive this?  No allowance.  They are to help out when we are cleaning.  They feed dogs/cat and are to let dogs outside when they need to go out.  DH was never made to do chores and never got an allowance.  My sister and I always helped out at home, but never got an allowance. They get everything that they need now.
