been there, done that - am finished (thank goodness!!)....I was really at my peak of 'tude (attitude, what you called CRAB *lol*) from 42-45 with pre- perimenopause.....it DOES get better once it is all over (does take about 10 years from the very onset to the finish). But are we really *finished*? I guess we are in menopause the rest of our lives even if we are *done* and the 10 years has passed....*lol* But I swear, it DOES get better

Christmas starts on the evening of 12/24, not the day after T-giving
I'm Roman Catholic, and we celebrate Christmas until the epiphany. So our decorations are up until then.
I also remember a friend of mine who lived in upstate NY. She said that they had a local tradition where she lived that said they left decorations up until Presidents Day. She was the only person who ever told me that one, so I don't know if that's so.
Exercise for at least 45 minutes in the evening. Will unwind

It is fine for them to stay home alone that evening (sm)
They will have to understand that previous plans have been made. It sounds like they really just don't want to have to do quite so much driving on Christmas day and so to spend the night before makes it easier. Either way, they get to wake up with your family on Christmas morning, which will be a wonderful treat for them. I think they will be fine to just stay home - they have chosen not to go with you - that's their choice. It's really not a big deal.
Well I am early morning and evening worker
My body just does better and so I tell myself it is okay. I go strong from 5 to 11, out to deliver, back and then work 1 to 3 at a clinic, back home and then 7 to 9 sometimes later. Before I had the clinic I still took afternoons off as I am not a good producer in the afternoon and so I worked from 6 to 11 and then 6 to 9 or so. But I have my own accounts and can let me body dictate when my productive times are.

Mowing in the evening hours improves air quality...
My son has asthma. I've learned learned a thing or two about air quality and air pollution.
I don't know if this is why the OP's neighbor is mowing late, but I mow late and yet I get it done before 10 p.m.
Quite frankly, I think some of you all are being a bit sensitive! And just as much as your right to peace and quiet is being infringed upon, you are trying to infringe upon your neighbors rights to do what he wants in his own yard and inside is own house!
One time I was typing on a calm Sunday evening and my son came into the room...
said, "I told you we should buy me a new bike," and I looked up at him and his arm was all bloody and his left flank and hip were all bloody and grungy, I shot off an e-mail to whoever was there on Sunday night and took him to the ER with a broken arm. Bike was also unrepairable. By the way, I offered to buy him a new bike not too many days prior to this incident and he said he didn't need one.
See, I knew if I posted after the noon news it would be different after the evening news! LOL nm

We have several stores here where they
have all the ingredients cooked/cut up and you just assemble them yourself or you can have them do it for you for a fee.
I think they are too pricey to do on a regular basis, but evidently they are popular as I know of at least 3 stores.
I have read about a chef coming into people's homes and basically doing the same thing. They usually prepare a meal to be eaten fresh that night and then freeze the rest. I'm sure there is a market for it, the young singles starting out in the corporate world with long hours, the wealthy who would otherwise probably eat out every night, etc. I think it would take a while to build up a customer base so that you could actually make a profit, but maybe you could work for a caterer too to help out with the busy times of year. Maybe you could get tied in with a caterer and offer such things through the client base the cateter already has.
At certain stores in MI, s/m
They will double coupons up to $1. I do this a lot with toothpaste and stockpile it. A lot of times it is 2/$4 or 2/$5, so I either get it free or for 50 cents a tube. A lot of the $1 coupons are for new items and our local store here is pretty good about having those on sale a lot during the first few weeks it is out to promote it, so I get the new things relatively cheap as well. You just have to be careful about not getting things "just because you have a coupon."
When I coupon shop, it can take me 3 hours because I compare all the prices with brands to coupons, etc. You also have to really know your prices as compared to other stores. I have one store where I get my meat and I don't like to buy much else there because everything else is expensive. Where they double the $1 coupon, I don't buy anything there that I don't have a coupon and on sale for as their other prices are jacked. I'm really careful about it and belong to an internet sites to help me as well.
I think they use... you can buy it in stores and onlinhe.

Where in the Bible does it say what stores--sm
can and cannot sell?? Point out that *scripture* to me..please! The Bible also says *love one another as you love yourself*.
Stores closing..
The stores did not close for Chanukah...my son had to work 6 out of the 8 nights of Chanukah. I would have loved to have him at own each evening for prayers, but he was there after and we still got to enjoy the Holy Days together. Compromise people, compromise! Life is too short for such frustrations.
and some of us have stores readily available ...n/m
Smoking outside stores
I don't like people smoking outside stores either. They stand right by the door so you have to hold your breath and go through the smoke cloud. Unlike the other things mentioned, that does invade my personal space with secondhand smoke exposure.
Problems with pet stores.......sm
My niece bought a St. Charles Cavalier spaniel from a pet store in Houston, TX when she was visiting her in-laws and flew it back home with her. It had a little drippy nose at the time and the pet store reassured them she had just a little cold and said she had been vet checked. Well, by the time she got it home 2 days later, that baby was nearly dead......long story short, they spent a fortune keeping that baby alive....she had one problem after the next. They don't have children yet and she loves this dog like a child, and 4 years later, she is a healthy dog but now and then, has joint problems, had fluid build up in her eyes, and other stuff. She hates it when someone says you should have took her back. She loves the little dog, and I just tell her if you hadn't gotten her, she probably wouldn't be alive, God wanted you to have her because she needed love.
Then she went out and bought a Springer Spaniel, thinking her little girl needed a pal around while she was at work, and he has been a pill and a half ever since. Stubborn streak a mile long!!!!
It is 4 stores around Atlanta, don’t think
national. Let me settle up there first and then I will update. Let me say this, and this gives me hope, the court person the other day said a big chain owed $10,000 and when the truck pulled up in front of their store to load,the checkbook came out so I would like the money back - if not I take more furniture than I bought in the first place. I bought dinette but if I have to remove plan on 4 complete dinettes with 2 sofs and 2 chairs. Already have my wish list just in case!
You can get it from Amazon if not in stores (nm)

I don't blame the stores at all
Its a vicious circle for everyone, and everyone is loosing money. The stores because people won't buy what they used to and the consumer because they have to pay so much more for what they do get!!!
Why do stores, like Wal-Mart,
always redesign their layout just when I finally learn where things are?
Why are the seats of the carts at Wal-Mart so little? My 3-year-old barely fits in.
Why is it when I go to buy something on sale or "as advertised", the store never has it in stock?
stores that are going out of business
I got my teenage son all new bedding. Down comforter, designer sheets, etc. There are some good sales at these stores shutting down.
And yes, he wanted an Ipod, but he sleeps all the time anyway, so have a nice bed I think!
most stores have this, even walmart

Most stores don't carry very large sizes, so you end up wearing what you have got, or having to special order.
Not to digress, but I thought stores never

And, no I don't buy from businesses that knowingly sell homosexual material of any type!
You are so right. I never saw such junk as I looked at in these stores. Well I will be a lot more
careful what I buy and who made it. This was all made overseas. Just junk and not cheap.
well just this year they opened 15 stores in...nm
And that is why I don't shop at those store, but there are many stores that I do
items. I'm not holding any anger from this end, I am just going to continue to stick to my convictions.
consignment stores and outlets
I've been shopping those for years....I get sticker shock at the malls...prices are outrageous. In recent memory the most I've paid for a designer suit that included skirt, pants and jacket....houndstooth print in a petite size (which are hard to find) with the original tags still on it from a major dept store was $25. I did break down and spend $7 on a cashmere turtleneck though.  It's real fun to get a bargain and still have money left over to go grocery shopping.
Goodwill Stores & Halloween - sm
Wow.... I just got back from a trip to the local Goodwill Store, and boy, am I ever ready for Halloween! Beginning in October they bring out all their costumes, and costume-worthy, bizarre clothing. Usually I don't get there 'til it's all picked over, but THIS TIME I went early. Sometimes I get stuff just for the material, or the trimmings, and other times I'll see a piece and do some "reverse engineering" on it to turn it into something else. But I don't need to do that this year - everything I found is good to go!
I LOVE Halloween... it's always been my favorite holiday! Can't wait..!
Try Target......and call stores every day - sm
we went through this in August. Heard 2 things, they will only be selling them in bundles from now on (which we did not want)....and starting to sell them in China now, so not a lot coming to U.S, most are going to China right now so it is very hard to find them. We had bought a used one at Game Stop, but found a problem with it on the last day of the warranty (7-day warranty return policy on used stuff); took it back that night and still had to fight for a refund, and started hunting again. Told to call Wal-mart every day and run in there when they said they got them in (ours was getting 30 a week back in August with 1 weekly shipment but they would sell out in 2 hours). I found them at Target a day or two after we'd bought the used one.....of course they were gone when I went back a 5 days later. But my DH went into a Target in the town he was working and lucked out and bought one there. So if you have a Target, try your luck there, and keep calling until they get a shipment in and drop everything and go when you do find one. I am thinking about seeing if I can luck into any and resell on ebay, make some Christmas money! You can find them on ebay but I am sure as Christmas draws closer the price will rise dramatically. Good luck.
yep, automotive stores and I think Wal-Mart
any store that has an automotive department, could be K-Mart, Auto-Zone, anywhere mechanics get their stuff from.......maybe even the grocery store in the automotive aisle...where you can pick up oil.....
Have had mine 5 years and it stores just
great...Love it and will never deal with untangling lights again!
Pet stores usually have contracts to buy lg.#s of pups

2 things in grocery stores
1. When your looking for a specific item and looking at all the choices and someone walks right in front of you and stops and does the same thing. Then they don't even have the decency to say excuse me or even look at you.
2. When your at the check out stand and writing a check on the little counter and the person behind you comes and stands so close to your back that you can feel them breathing down your neck or they are so close they can read your check.
I am asking in all honesty to not blame the stores
My family is in the grocery business, and like jss said, everything is going up. I don't believe the stores are trying to make a profit off of the bad economy, but groceries have to be trucked in (paying the drivers, the gas, the workers that package the items, etc.). Outrageous prices are eveywhere. My father refused to order red peppers due to the cost and the fact that he knew his customers would not pay for them. It works both ways.
Stores are trying to make 'em get their
Bring ads from other stores. Most pricematch..sm.
So you don't have to worry about trying to get to the other stores before the sale item is gone, bring the ads from the other stores with you. Most store will match the price of other stores if you bring in the ad!! Thus eliminating running all over town in a mad rush. All you have to do is get to the "sale item" at that store first before it's gone, then you can relax while getting the stuff from the other ads because there'll be plenty of stock cuz it's not on sale there. It makes it sooo much easier and a lot less stressful. I hope I worded that so it makes sense. I'm tired.
Or, get together the day before with a few other people who are going. Each of you is designated a different store and picks up what the others want at their designated store. Then meet for breakfast afterwards to exchange the purchases as well as horror/humor stories from the "adventures." Thus, again, eliminating the "rushing" from one place to another.
I think I'll stay in and shop online this year. I heard you can do that for the black friday sales and some store will even let you buy online and pick up at the store. (later, after the rush and madness is over!)
For the "virgin" poster, beware, some people can be downright mean, nasty, rude and even violent that morning. Seriously. Oh, and NEVER leave your cart unattended if you were lucky enough to get one of the "limted amounts per store" items. People will literally take them right out of your cart if you're not watching. Keep your stuff buried beneath your coat at the bottom of the cart and NEVER let your cart leave your side. And keep your purse in sight at all times. If you bring a purse, have it hang in front of you and not on your side. I like to just keep my money and/or credit card tucked snugly in my front pocket of my jeans and not even bother with a purse.
Just go into one of their stores, cancel and walk out...
why let ANYONE intimidate you?
Sneak it to the stores' dumpster sm
at night or an office building that doesn't lock theirs????? Get the kids involved too? Take the stuff to the dumpster at the office where you worked even after you left?
This lady would be wise to ignore your advice. You sound like a real "choice" employee! Teach the kids to be dishonest. Wonderful and we wonder why kids act like they do!
I never mind the extra for shipping, have you seen those stores?!? lol
I do very little shopping at the big stores, NEVER during a sale, and most I do on line every year. I will sometimes even shop from home other times throughout the year when there are big sales, because many stores have the sales on line too, and if you have a credit card they will email you a notice and sometimes even offer free shipping or other deals. To me, it's just not worth going out and dealing with all that madness, it's too stressful and who needs that. Not me :)
ok my post about condoms in grocery stores was
You won't shop in any stores that have gay/lesbian items but you shop in your stores of your choice - where there are probably plenty of gay employees!
Don't you see the hypocrisy? I'm just trying to make a point. You cannot presume to know in a shop who is a gay/lesbian employee, correct? So you're defeating your own purpose I do believe.
Me? I think there's not enough love in this world and so if 2 people find each other in a loving way, it's okay by me. I really don't care who is *doing* who as it is none of my business.
I'm much more of a political shopper as another poster just said.......the poster who posted ALL that info towards the end of this entire thread about all the details about Wal-Mart including the dissatisfied Wal-Mart employees in China....being very careful where I spend my $$ for political reasons. In this light I have a problem with Target......so much of their $$ is given to a party I am not affiliated with, but, on the other hand, I just heard that Target gives so much back to the communities and charities and is a huge *giver* to the communities and charities - and that's a GREAT thing so I'm in a quandry about Target. *lol*
(Thank you to that poster who posted ALL the Wal-Mart problems information - that was TERRIFIC info, especially the stuff about China!!!)
In any event, we all do not need to be spatting about this - I mean it is the Holiday season and we should try to be kinder to each other.
Y'all have a GREAT holiday season and an even better 2007!
Animals being sold in hardware stores. SM
While driving through Miami, FL, I noticed several hardware stores with large signs stating they sold both hardware and animals. My DH knows who handles the accounts of those stores (he sells hardware wholesale) and they said, yes, the stores carry animals for santeria rituals such as chickens, roosters and rabbits.
I'm all for freedom of religion, but draw the line at using live creatures. I'm not a big animals right advocate, although I love animals, but I feel like notifying PETA about this. Or somebody about this.
Any suggestions?
Great teen stores. They are owned by the same ... SM
establishment (for lack of a better word LOL). Gap is the more expensive, higher end, clothing. Old Navy is less expensive and is what the kids around here wear the most of. Either is really good but Old Navy goes a lot further in your budget.
Maurice's is good and not so high priced, if you have one of those nearby. And don't forget about the old standbys like Macy's, Penney's, Sears, and Belk's if these are in your area of the country.
In my area it's all the 7-11 stores, motels, & some gas stations.
They also are buying up a lot of the apartment buildings around here, too.
:(
I am hating all stores with anything for sale on line!!! sm
Went to Target.com to order a bunch of dolls and stuff to go with it and web site stated all was in stock and would ship in 1-2 business days. I ordered this for my daughters birthday in September. I placed my order August 2nd and only got one doll in time for her September 30th birthday!!! I emailed and called to complain about offering merchandise and not having it available. Never got anywhere with them..except a bunch of email replys from someone outside of the US!!!
Went to Toys R Us.com to place a huge Christmas order. I had a coupon for $50.00 off my order if I ordered a certain amount of merchandise and I also had free S&H. Got a call from my credit card stating someone at Toys R Us used my card to order a bunch of stuff for themselves.
From now on shopping only in stores with CASH!!!
Publix stores here have little pizzas and my husband
yesterday bought 1, topped it this time with the Italian ham, before used salami and they are small, just perfect for lunch. He fixed me 1 along with some tea and brought it to my desk. It was yummy!
