Summer. Friends or family? Family. Tired or Awake?

Family and friends
Thanks for understanding. I agree. I have found that family is not necessarily blood. They say blood is thicker than water? I say blood could equal dysfunction. The real family we have are those we choose ourselves and who love us in return. Your peaceful Christmas with you husband and your friends sound like what Christmas is all about, not the other stuff. Thanks for reminding me Christmas can be peaceful and warm.
We actually had a small family gathering at my inlaws
And we had take out. It was easier to do it that way and a lot more relaxing since they live in a small condo and didn't want to bother with a huge dinner.
best gift to me is having family and friends....nm

Do you have any family or friends you can stay with? I do not
know where you are, but there are many options for battered women (both physically and mentally) and I can help guide you on who to get in touch with in your area if you give me an area to look. PLEASE feel free to e-mail and I will help if I can. I do remember your posts from awhile ago and I was thinking then that the situation was going nowhere but worse, so please think of your sanity and the fact that what is going on in that house is DEFINITELY spilling over onto the children.
Family member with small cell lung CA

Anyone have direct experience with this disease?  I have done MT for longer than I want admit, so I know a lot about the clinical aspect of it, poor prognosis, neurological side effects of the chemo, possible brain irradiation down the line, etc. 


My niece, who is 49 years old, was diagnosed today and is starting chemo tomorrow.  She has 2 masses, one outside the lung and one inside.  One mass is near the lymph system and at this time they are not sure if there is mets or not - will do a PET scan and an MRI in a week or so to better assess this. 


If you pray, offer her and her family up, otherwise, please think positive thoughts for them.   Thanks.


just a thought-all criminals have family and friends

All criminals/bad people do have people and family and friends in their lives who love them.  Does not make those people, the family and friends who love them, criminals.............


 


Pismo beach is great for the family; it is small and quain
Ocean views about 200 a night or so (I go there). But also Santa Cruz which has a theme park of some kind. Carmel is great. The 17 mile drive is awesome, then there is Big Sur - it makes you feel close to God. If you want 4 cars at the stop light or less, central California (Pismo) might be your style and you won't have to worry about crime. I stay at Cottage Inn by the Sean which is a Thomas Kincaide like hotel with such ambience. And you can bring the dog for about 250 a night and fall to sleep to the sound of the ocean and wake up in the morning to it, too. I go there whenever I can. It is such a nice town with no pretense and good hotels and restaurants. :) Have fun
Kids at grandma's for me too! Pizza, pizza, pizza!
Yay.
Just signed it and e-mailing the info to family and friends. nm

Bowling League
Isn't there another league that you can join where you can meet people that are nicer where you can have fun. I bowl Thursday nights and I love it. Most of the people are very friendly and we have a great time. I would never subject myself to these rude people. You want to have fun and not be afraid to go bowling for fear of not enjoying yourself.
I was sore from bowling!
After playing it all night when we first got it, I woke up this next morning and my right shoulder was killing me! I mean, I lift weights regularly, and I don't even get as sore from that! I also love the tennis one, and I take the Wii Fitness test almost every day! I am getting Mario Galaxy and the Mario Olympic games next week, and I can't wait! I also have to recommend the Rayman Ravid Rabbids game as that has to be the FUNNIEST game I have ever seen! Shooting toilet plungers at crazy screaming bunnies! LOL!
My sis has a Wii and the bowling game is great....
you get some exercise, can have a drink or so while playing, and don't have to smell like cigarettes when you get home. Or spend any money on shoes etc. LOL.
Free bowling for kids this summer - sm

I just got told about this yesterday, it's a summer program thru Aug. 31 for kids to bowl for free, 2 games a day until 5pm, for the whole summer, just have to pay shoe rental.  I signed us up for it, have a nice place here about 30 mins from us on the list of participating bowling alleys, and we are set. They also have a family plan that is $23.95, and up to 4 adults can bowl too w/o incuring any additional fees except for shoes again.  Last time we went it was $100 for 4 people, 2 games, shoes, a pizza and a pitcher of soda.  So this is a steal.  Just thought I'd put the word out.  I plan on buying us all shoes so we can save on rental, and will break even on those in 2-5 visits/person depending on what I spend.  Our place charges $5/person/game and $4.50 for shoe rental, so one outing for us (4) with no food, 2 games, $58, so we go rarely.  Just thought I'd pass this on!

A few years back I tried joining a ladies bowling league sm

on Tues. mornings. Worked out perfect since I'm off Tuesdays. Here's the dilemma. Most of the women (90%) were so rude to me. No matter how friendly and nice I was to them (which I am very outgoing) it just did not matter.


I'm thinking of joining it again. How does one put up with bad attitudes in this situation? Don't I have the same right as they do?? I mean, just because I'm young doesn't mean I can't be there. The bowling alley was the one who put me on the stupi*d league in the first place! I should add that my average at the time was 160 (I've been on leagues since I was 8 years old) and I am an above-average bowler. Now my average is even higher. I was constantly winning small pots due to high game (200s or more).


Why am I so afraid of going back? There were at least 75 women in the league. Most of them retired. Why do older women like that have bad attitudes? Is it the environment? Jelaousy? You'd think after all those years they'd be over that. There are no men around, so it can't be jealousy. I'm so upset and annoyed and I haven't even signed up yet! UGH!


When you have friends - it's good. But when you don't have friends it's

REALLY GOOD!!!


I swear, I have this one friend who just gets mad at me stupid stuff.  I told her a few weeks ago that I could probably go out this sat. but now I can't make it (just dinner). So, I emailed her and told her I can't go. She's upset.  Thinks I should not have made plans in the first place. Well, things come up.


Why are people (women) so catty? Immature?


Are there any women out there who can: Forgive, understand, not get offended because I am not perfect? If so, I'd like to meet you.  I highly doubt she exists though.


Family is great but I am never back in my hometown where family is... So I always have extended fami
You can always pick your friends your stuck with your family. An Xmas for me is where my husband and kids come home to. It is what you make it!
Big difference between family values and family jewels, eh? lol
LOL. I love this show. I think Gene and Shannon and her sister are a riot! What characters. It really is amazing to me the kids seem so laid back and so normal. They seem like great kids.
Does your family still do the early Sunday dinner w/family?
s
So go over and have pizza..what's the big deal?
Not like she asked you to plan it or have it at your place and cook a meal. Maybe I'm not understanding.
How much do you tip the pizza delivery guy?

I usually give them 3 or 4 dollars.


But I got to thinking with the cost of gas, maybe that's not enough? Don't they usually pay for their own gas?


How much do you tip?


California pizza
I always wondered if they were any good... now I can try one
Never had mac and cheese pizza, but
I have my grandmother's recipe that we grew up on of baked mac and cheese. So much better than the box varieties.
If you're talking about Pizza Hut then....sm
the $1.50 fee goes to the restaurant to help pay the base salary for the drivers. I know because I asked the manager when they started this practice a few months ago. I usually give a 20% tip as they always deliver pizzas to my house within 20 minutes and faster than the internet says they'll deliver when I place the order.
does pizza hut begin with the letter D?
nm
I like my pizza stone and can opener the best.
Any stone is nice if you bake.  The items I use and LOVE the most are their spatulas.  Everything is kinda pricey.  They do have things in all price ranges though.  I also like their cook books.  I have never been to a power party!  Have fun. 
Pizza in a home over. Not hot enough. Tasty, but sm
never as good as baked in a real pizza oven.
Pizza Hut - He was a cook and I was a waitress. nm

Here's the pizza guy's point of view

The pizza place we order from
I have assumed that would go to the driver.
I wish I MADE as much as a pizza delivery guy

Pizza is every kids favorite!
I have used the pie irons before but never thought of anything other than the desserts or grilled cheese. Pizza sounds like an easy and healthy lunch for the kids that they will actually eat and can help make. Thanks so much!
Homemade Pizza Dough

Does anybody have a recipe for a good pizza dough recipe that does not take a long time to make?


Also what do you put on your homemade pizza?


Pizza Hut - he was a cook and I was a waitress :)

Uncooked whole tomatoes on pizza
We have that here. I actually love it. It's like a bruchetta.
My ultimate favorite pizza
Is the Pizza Margarita (sp?). It's the one where the crust is brushed with EVOO and then just topped with slices of mozzarella, fresh tomatoes and fresh leaves of basil. I adore it, and would you believe cannot find it in the central California area?

The only regional foods where I live are pretty much raisins and grapes *sigh*

We're more famous for our crime rate than our cuisine, lol!
The pizza I had in Buffalo was supposedly
pepperoni. The whole tomatoes were supposedly the sauce. I love, love, love tomatoes, just not what tastes like whole, uncooked on my pizza.
Never buy frozen pizza from the store
I have never found one that does not taste like eating a piece of cardboard. I have a Johnny's Pizza probably as close as the nearest store and my goodness, what terrific pizza but I also love my pepperoni and green olive stromboli. Yum, yum.
California Pizza Kitchen
makes a very good frozen pizza; for a while I was hooked on the 5-cheese and tomato. You can just see the calories dripping off of it.
Group singing
I think the group songs have been much better this year than previous years I've watched. Mostly their voices blend well and pitch has been good.

Didn't Chris sing well during his solos in the group songs? I think it was just fierce competition/tough schedule that dis him in. Either that or he just wanted to go home.
The name of the group is Heartland -
I just looked up the words to see if I could find them - I did - I cried again. 
Hope they are a better group than this

Maybe a cat or dog rescue group needs help. - nm

Choosing a group

You can pick a charity by clicking on the "Add a Charity" button at the bottom of the page.  On the next page, on the left side, is a box for the not-for-profits groups.  If you click that you will see all the groups listed.


Or you can just type in "Pet Rescue By Judy" and use that one, LOL!


Once you have selected your group you can check how much your are helping by clicking on the "amount raised" button.


Can you imagine how much MTs can help with all the searching we do!  We have the power you guys!  Don't forget to shop through this site also!  You can shop for Target, ebay and many others.  Just click on the shop through GoodSearch and shop as usual.  It really helps!  You can make GoodSearch your home page too and see just how much you can help!


Thanks for all the great responses!  May God bless you with many, many lines, easy reports and no ESLs this week!

Is this the same group against Gays?

Youth Group Name

My DH is a youth pastor, our Youth Group at the beach was called WAVES, which stood for Worship Active Voices Exclaiming Salvation.  We moved up to the mtns of our state, and he had coined the name for our Youth Group as EXCITE, which stands for Exalting Christ in Today's Environment!!.  We are still looking for a home church since we moved in Jan 2007.  My DH is getting very disheartened...  Good luck to your Youth Group.  Oh, by the way, if you live anywhere close to Myrtle Beach, SC then consider taking your youth next year to the Big God Conference on New Year's eve/day.  It is AWESOME!!


Wonder what a group of men would be saying about women?
sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Please don't group everyone under the assumption
that our jobs are unfulfilling. I enjoy my work and am very happy with my accounts.
Oh, and I think anyone can start a group there.

You can start an MTStars group most likely.  It will advertise MTStars as an MT forum and then if people use monikers, they can say who they are, or they can just be a part of the Facebook MTStars group.  I am not sure if MTStars would mind or not, so maybe we should ask the admin, but I would think the would want posters to draw their friends here.  JMO.  I don't want to step on any toes though.  It is networking and I learn a lot from Stars. 


So, Yeah, Thanks for being here MTStars...   


I feel bad for the 1st group. There were
several more of them that would have made the top 12 if they have been included in this group rather than their own.
SIL family, us and another family snacked,played
