So much seems wrong this post --
First off, if you have no insurance, what difference does it make what diagnosis he puts on the requisition form? I did billing for years and the diagnosis only matters if you have insurance. A lab will run any test you want as long as you're paying for it regardless of the diagnosis.
Secondly, did your doctor ever hear of hyperglycemia? There are many causes for it and some are correctable. Just because you've had 1 high reading does not make you diabetic.
If it were me, I'd see another doc, but first I'd make sure that diagnosis was not on my lab order. If you've had the blood work done, ask your doctor's office to correct it. If you haven't had it done yet, get a second opinion.
Pinkie - the baby pig
Pinkie is around 10 days old. I have a Chihuahua, Mione, and Pinkie is about half the size of Mione, LOL. I will get one of my older kids to take Pinkie's picture so I can post it here. When you are feeding her, she pushes her little feet around like she is kneading dough.
Think you are sorta wrong about your post
the first time we even saw SP was when she was brought out by McCain and introduced. We did not know beforehand. Right from the start everyone got to know her reallyyyyyy well, especially with the introduction of the speech she gave at the RNC gathering. Loved her interviews, really bright lady!
Anonymous was me....I had accidentally used the wrong name on my post...nm

For Amy, Pinkie is right, some good ideas, keep us posted.

I get the spelling
correct for people I care about, enuff said?
I never one a spelling bee but
even in grade school when the teacher would announce spelling with 1 group on 1 side of the room, the other on the other side, I always had my hand raised first because something I loved to do. My kids told me 1 time they were glad I could spell and type, otherwise what in the world would I have done as far as making a living...
Our GPS is a Gamin (I believe that's the spelling)
I couldn't live without it. My husband said it's the best money we ever spent. And as someone said above, if you make a wrong turn it gets you right back on track. I would recommend one to anyone who has problems with directions. It also saves a lot of fighting when you're in the car with a man who won't stop for directions. LOL.
We resorted to spelling b-y-e but now he even knows that.
He also used to be able to tell time. Before my son got his license I had to pick he and his sister up from school every day. Casey knew exactly when to go lay by the door so he didn't miss out on his ride. LOL!
Okay here are the rumours LOL, sorry for the spelling
I did read in one of the soap mags (no longer buy them, just read them while in line at the grocery store) that Sabrina is definitely leaving the show. I also read elsewhere that it is rumored Sabrina and the baby will die in a car accident. Well, of course if Sabrina dies so will the baby. Anyway, I think Heather may get herself in danger with Walter since she is starting to connect him to David and Ji Min. It has shown in flashbacks that David killed Ji Min. Don't know why yet. He has ties with the mob and Walter is getting him to do the dirty work. Do you ever go to Soap City on the net? Here is the website.
http://www.sonypictures.com/tv/shows/soaps/index.html
They will give you daily recaps as well as a weekly preview. Any other questions just let me know. I take my lunchbreak during Y&R so I can watch. Each days episode is also on the soap channel at 7:00p.m.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
and don't correct my spelling...
I see my errors. LOL
probably----just love my spelling - nm

Campho-phenique (spelling??)
Patent leather (spelling?)
Shiny black would probably be pretty. What color are the flowers? If you like metallic, silver would probably look really pretty, too! Have fun!
i was going to use this if I had another girl. LOVE this name/spelling
as
Kalyn (or variation on spelling)
a little unusual, not quite the norm. Although my daughter is Kalyn and she gets called Kaitlyn a lot.
Carmex (spelling?)......in pharmacy OTC..
So true, spelling and math.
Wanna have a laugh, when at a store if the amount is something like 12.56 give the young clerk a twenty and a nickel and a penny and see the puzzled look you get. Then when they put the amount into the ''computer'' and see you will get 2 quarters back they are like OH! okay. This is our future generation. It is scary.
Spelling police? Pleeeeeze no...
Unless you NEVER make mental errors (its versus it's, your versus you're), please don't correct our mistakes. Rest assured, I always kick myself when I see a typo or grammatical error that I've made without anyone having to point it out. However, this board being named 'gab' implies a casual come-as-you are atmosphere...i.e. no spelling police. We will return the favor. Thanks!!! 
excuse the spelling errors nm
m
yes, but I did apologize for being the spelling police.
Interesting about the national spelling bee...
7 of the 10 finalists are Indian.. probably American raised, but there were a few parents in the audience in Indian garb. The winner's last name is Shivashankar (sp!). Man, though, all these kids are really sharp! They were allowed to ask questions about the origin of the words, etc.
How many of us MT's are former spelling bee winners? I bet lots. 8th grade county champ here. My final word was ptomaine.
I was the building spelling champ when
I was in 5th grade -- boy were the 6th graders mad. I was also on the 5th grade 3-kid all-star scholastic quiz team (kind of like jeopardy) and we beat the 6th graders that year, too! We didn't get to compete any further than within our own building.
Of course, as for the spelling bee last night, I only watched the last few rounds, but I couldn't spell any of those words. Whew! I was surprised at the questions they were allowed to ask. We were only allowed to ask definition and to use it in a sentence. The one last night asked what the root word was -- I'm not sure that should have been allowed.
Anyway, the winner definitely earned it!
You ead my response wrong, terribly wrong
I am trying to ask what does she think it will help, not being nasty- tell me and I will try this. I would stand on my head and gargle peanut butter if I thought it would help - I wanted to know why a letter? They are thumbing their noses at the courts - commanded to appear- I was there and they werent.
Spelling police is not necessary on the MTStars forums.

well your english/grammar/punctuation/spelling
Who would want your rudeness around their children or good neighbors anyway? Since you seem to be just a judgmental person, perhaps there is some utopia somewhere for the likes of folks like you....hmmmmm? We wouldn't want you in the city nor the country as neighbors of our family, that's for sure, and WE DON'T IMBIBE...so there!
Rudeness and hate is taught in the home - now we know how it was for you.....poor thing....
Did anyone watch the national spelling bee last night...sm
and feel like a dunce like I did? My husband & I felt brilliant when we were able to spell the words they used.... but missed most.
Oh, but you didn't correct my spelling of "tooma,"
tooma for tumor, LOL.
And besides, the traditional spelling for the reply is,
"It's nodda tooma."
:oD
Cat's spelling is of one of the stars in a constellation. Forget
v
Presidential candidate Huckabee (spelling?) said that
Christmas is taken from "Christ mass" and therefore it is Christmas and he was going to continue to say "Merry CHristmas" - jest of his commentary on the radio the other day when questioned about it.
Tried, failed in math so could not figure, only do spelling!

Lucky, you! I am sorry I got the spelling of this gorgeous breed SM
wrong. I study dog breeds, know every one in the dog shows, etc. and then made that fo-pa. Not intentional, I assure you. They had the Pembroke and Cardigan. You would have loved it.
Yes. You must make a point to see this next year. It is so adorable and a change of pace for those of us who don't watch the football game. They have them on what looks like a football field with lots of toys and they are all running around, and they play a sound track in the bakground that sounds like fans cherring in the crowd!
You can get in trouble for being spelling police here but as far as living
where I live, these places can be rural as well as in the city- I don’t want to put up with undesirables. Take that anyway you would like.
Cut the snippy remarks back and forth. Spelling police are not
p
I used to love spelling bees too. However, I went to a Catholic school and......
they were required, just like learning the catechism. LOL. I have a TON of holy cards from my grade school years. But I'll be darned if I can remember the word I won my last bee with in 8th grade.
I told my son's 6th grade teacher that I was concerned about the fact that they didn't study spelling, or grammar, the old fashioned kind of subject, verb, and object grammer. Those of you who are in your 50's and plus will know EXACTLY what I am talking about. But that is a subject for a whole other discussion.
spelling police beware the swift correction of the administrator! ha! nm

Or just sick of spelling correctly? Meant "ever" and "dating" nm

Please don't take this the wrong way
but after reading your note and the way he is "flirting" - sounds like he's thinking below the belt. Unless that's what your're interested in also he could be trouble.
Um, wrong!!!

what is wrong with you (OP)???
How in the WORLD is playing peek-a-boo with your child ICKY?? Wow, hope you aint a mom..........................
it is very sad, but you are wrong about these
horses being exploited. I have horses. I have been part of the horseracing business and my husband's life was spent riding racehorses. These are very well-taken care of animals, and by nature love to run. They generally work for minutes a day (except on race day) and then are pampered the rest of the time. There are exceptions, but these horses are very much loved by those that work with them. There was absolutely no monetary benefit to keeping Barbaro alive. They could have collected huge amounts of money through their insurance had they put him down right away. They could not breed this horse; Tb's cannot be AI'd. They tried to save this horse because they loved him and he had poured his heart out to run his best. Just yesterday after watching the Sunshine Millions races, i told my husband that they've tried long enough to save him, that it is time to put him down. I agree with that decision.
wrong -- MOST don't end up this way.
Many of these horses go to working ranches, competition of other kinds, like barrel racing, etc. There are also numerous organizations set up by the racing assocation and others to find them homes in the general population. If you really want to know where much of your packing plant horses come from, look at the BLM, wild mustangs. They sell here for $25. yup, even bred mares. So these people that have no heart, buy em and turn them around for a profit at the packing plants. BTW, a feed lot is generally a term for steers in a concentrated lot being fed-up for slaughter, and horses are used there to work the cows.
VERY wrong! What would
you think if you caught your husband in the same situation. It seems to have become an addiction. Stop now cold turkey. Read the 5 love languages book and see if you cannot reconnect with your hubbie or go get some marriage counseling.
Is this right or wrong?
I am a female in my early 40's and I have never been married and do not have children.
With every job I've had, some people feel the need to interrogate me about why I've never been married.
I never bring up the topic myself.
I usually answer, I've never found any one, maybe I will meet someone, etc.
I recently started a new job and have told co-workers when they ask if I've ever been married, I tell them I am divorced.
Now, I barely hear a peep about being single, whether these folks tell me they wish they were single or complain about their kids.
I just think it is rude to ask someone why they have never married. I would never ask someone why they married their spouse.
Is this right or wrong?
It's definitely wrong.
That you're so good in bed that limiting yourself to just one man would be a crime against humanity.
Then ask them, "Which one is YOUR husband, by the way?"
So everyone else was wrong, U only one to get it right? nm

You are so wrong
As a former teacher, I'm appalled at your ignorance. Teachers start at salaries lower than truck drivers. Of course it varies from region to region, but generally it is about $28k to $29k. Some of these positions require a master's degree or a specialist degree, which is above the Bachelor's degree.
As far as the hours teachers work - they are really never off duty. They have papers to grade, meetings to attend, clubs to sponsors, committees to serve on, parents to phone, write, email, and and websites to update daily. Then, there are the workshops and/or college courses they have to attend to keep their credentials current.
Summer vacation? Who teaches summer school? Who works 1 or 2 jobs to supplement the lack of income for the 2 summer months, to keep up the student loan payments, take a college course or a workshop mandated by the school district or the state dept of education?
Then, there is the fact they aren't allowed to be human. If a teacher is seen drinking in public, smoking in public, or smacking their own child's bottom, they are bound to be pilloried by some self-righteous citizen.
You need to shadow a teacher for a week and then coime back and tell me how easy the job is and how well paid they are.
If it were easy, everyone would be doing it and we wouldn't have the teacher shortage we have.
Did I mention the number of teachers who are assaulted and permanently injured by their students every year? I'm waiting for 60 Minutes to do a story about that instead of the extremely rare but so publicized cases of teachers having sex with their students. Anyone else notice that it's the female teachers who get the publicity? I know a lot more male teachers having sex with their students - of both sex - than female teachers.
Nothing wrong with that-
it sounds like my friend who comes over to my house and hangs out with me and cleans my house for me. Sometimes I give her money when she needs it and I can afford it; Also she drives my other car and I pay the registration and insurance on it. She is unable to work and the amount of disability she gets is impossible to live on.
There's something wrong with her, all right! nm

Nothing wrong at all with it sm
The Clydesdales live at Grants Farm in St. Louis, a wonderful place to take children. The Budweiser story is rich with American history between President Grant and one of the founders of Budweiser's daughters - we took our 12 and 7 year old on a tour of both Grant's Farm and the Budweiser factory. The horses are beautiful a part of American history dating back into the 1800s. I would guess this box is worth far more than the $20 you paid for it.
My 2 cents.
So what's wrong with that?
