Hi, it is difficult to restore shine when it is gone, but...sm
" Eventually, no matter how diligent you are about cleaning, your no-wax
floor will lose its shine. Then, believe it or not, the best way to
make it new-looking is to wax it.
Use a water-based self-polishing
wax.
Whenever possible use a product recommended by the manufacturer.
If you don't know who the manufacturer is, get a recommendation from a
reputable flooring contractor in your area.
Can anyone that has an older vinyl floor that is dull tell me how to get it to shine a little but
not make it slippery with wax. Thanks much.
Since afternoon is here already,
this is a bit late, but I definitely think you need to go to the ER. I would think a CT scan or MRI, even a spinal tap may be required, that's how odd it sounds to me.
Don't delay.
YEP.. usually afternoon
I have had a coke or something to help me wake up, so maybe I should not do that.. I know they say not to, but sometimes we do without thinkin... will try the high protein & low carb.. cut the caffeine.. thanks.. will let you know if it helps.. i don't do it all the time, but i have days it is horrible.. thanks again..
Dog Day Afternoon :) Very cute!

Did you go to the afternoon showing?
I only do that (costs less for me) because I would hate to pay full price and get a crappy show I did not like.
Off until Monday afternoon -- Happy New Years
Off until Monday afternoon, have a friend coming in on Saturday (female) and for the first time since I have been single, over five years, going out dancing and having fun on New Years Eve. See if this old lady still has it in her to have a night of fun. Not sure if I remember how to dance. Hope you all have a Happy New Years. 2007 is going to be a good one for me.

Mowed lawn Friday afternoon. sm
It started to rain around 10:30 but the rain suddenly went away. I decided to mow because my neighbors were probably upset. They had already done their lawns, but mine was overgrown with weeds. Aesthetically, it looks better, but I have to find something to get rid of the weeds. They grew the prettiest purple flowers, though. Didn't mind them so much, but I know my neighbors probably though the lawn was an eyesore.
I have an upsetting problem and need some advice by this afternoon
After my mom died, I buried her in the family plot. My cousin's husband (Joan and John) asked if there were any lots left (yes, 2) and could they have them. Since they lived in the same town all their lives, I gave the deed to them. I also told them at that time (7 years ago) that I had bought lots for my family and I would be willing to move my mom - I still had some money then. They said it was not necessary.
Joan died Sunday and John called my aunt to get my phone # and asked if I moved mom. I said I didn't because no one really asked me to do it. He told the kids that I refused to move mom. The lots are split, one on the side of mom and one on the my grandfather's side. I think they wanted a stone with both their names on it and buried aside of each other. One of the kids called my aunt yesterday and said there was no hard feelings, but that her dad had called me a couple weeks ago and asked me to move my mom. He didn't do that because he didn't have my phone number!! My aunt told her that, but I'm not sure if they believe her.
Anyway, the viewing is tonight and I should really go, but I'm afraid my John will cause a scene and that's the last thing I need. I'm literally making myself sick in the stomach over this as I can't afford to move my mom now.
Any advice? Should I still go or should I stay home? I've been running this through my mind ever since he called and can't come to a decision by myself.
I will have to see the kids at the family reunion in August, but it may blow over by then. John hasn't gone to the reunion in years so I'm not afraid he'll be there then.
P.S. Over the past 5 years, I have been getting panic attacks at viewings.
Live alone, don't eat lunch. Usually don't eat until late afternoon.

Afternoon or evening ceremony? What is the other mom wearing? What looks good on you?

don't want to rain on your parade, but I too --sm
have been in bad relationships and the one thing that stuck out in your post was the fact that he has been married and divorced twice. Just keep in mind that he has been divorced twice for a reason, and those reasons eventually carry over into the next relationship, as well. It may take 10 years before you know all his faults. I am not saying he is not the one for you, but just use your head, as well as your heart, and keep in mind that he must not have been all that perfect if he was divorced twice. I wish you luck.
I don't mean to rain on your parade...sm
But when I went to that 'breeder's' website, I saw a LOT of red flags: lots of info. about puppies-puppies-puppies!, shipping, taking credit cards, lots of use of the word 'teacup' no mention of a health guarantee, no mention of them doing anything with their dogs other than breeding them, no mention of screening potential buyers to make sure the breed is right for you, etc. Pretty much just seems like, 'Hey we've got plenty of puppies, if you have the money, we'll ship you one, no questions asked!' Not good.
I know you might have fallen in love with him because of his picture, but anybody can put up pretty pictures on a website. If I were you, I would RUN, and find a *reputable* breeder of Yorkies instead of that one.
My suggestion to anyone is to *first* go to the AKC Parent Club for any breed they're interested in. (Just search under whatever the name of the breed plus 'of America' and you'll find it.) There, you'll get all the facts, good and bad, about the breed, and you can get a referral to a *reputable* breeder (and see their Code of Ethics), where you will *dramatically* increase your chances of getting a *healthy,* happy puppy with a sound temperament and correct physical conformation, bred by an expert on the breed.
Here is the website for the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America: http://ytca.org/mainview.htm (scroll down to the bottom).
If I were you, I'd try to find a Yorkie breeder through their Breeder Referral section, hopefully close enough that you don't have to worry about shipping. You might have to be patient and wait for their next litter though, because reputable breeders aren't breeding their dogs like crazy just so they can sell puppies and make $$$. But it will be worth the wait.
Also read the Yorkie Club's section on 'teacups' - http://www.ytca.org/faq.html#A (Calling them 'teacups' is really just a sales tactic used by non-reputable breeders. There really is no such thing as a 'teacup.')
I know you didn't ask for my advice on all this and I've been a little long-winded, but I did breed rescue for many years, and I learned a lot about dogs. I'm not an expert on Yorkies, but I do know how to spot someone who is absolutely not a reputable breeder, and I do know that the parent club is the best source of honest info. for any breed. It would save a lot of heartache if people would go there to start their research first, IMO. Best of luck (and health) to you and your future baby! ;o)
We had rain twice today, so
we are pretty happy here.
Purple Rain
cranked up so loud the pictures fall off the walls.
Scensational's China Rain n/m
I am in Virginia and this is the first rain we have had in days! nm

If you expect $60K to rain down from heaven think again
My Bible tells me that the Lord will provide (and has provided) for all of my needs, it does not say he will send money raining down for me whenever I get myself into excess debt. Rest assured that the Lord will provide the faithful with all that they need and plenty of what they want. It is your right to believe otherwise, but do not step on my Christian beliefs in the process.
Luke 12:28, "If then God so clothe the grass, which is today in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?"
No rain forest, no swimming anywhere here
I have also heard about the things you speak of. He says under the skin and it feels like a worm and he presses on it and it will stop?? I know it is not psychiatric and I would say he is probably the most laid back person, no stress that he ever displays to me so ?? I am so glad (hope that does not sound wrong) to hear someone else had similar. I will certainly pass on.
Help me find a yellow rain slicker
I kid you not. My 20 yo son has asked for a yellow rain hat and slicker for Christmas. He's always been a bit... ummm .... eccentric. He has shown me a picture, and it really looks like the Gorton's fisherman.
On the practical side, my son is majoring in meteorology, so I guess this could be useful one day and more than just a strange fashion statement.
So, does anyone know where I can find something like this for a 6' tall, 190-pound young man?
High of 46 degrees & rain today in
I live in Michigan and we just had 3 days of solid rain and $4.19/gal for gas. sm
We got the leftovers from Ike. Our gas is still $4.19 a gallon. We did not have the power outages that KY, IL, etc had, but we did have 3-4 tornadoes touch down near the MI/IN border. We have a lot of dams that are in danger of being breached and our whole side of the state is in a flash flood watch until Thursday. They figure most rivers will crest near the border by Thursday.
Pay close attention to the post above...It is righter than rain!!!

I'm 5 minutes from Ft. Benning. They graduate on Friday. It will be cold rain here sm
I, myself, and VERY disappointed that it did not snow. I've been here 10 years and have been praying for snow!!! It's only 38 now and won't get much colder than this all week - high in the mid 40s or so. Congrats to your nephew!
