Sorry, haven't been to the board in awhile

Posted By: me on 2009-04-05
In Reply to: Clever ... and one more question. - Laura

and just saw this message. To scan slides I have a scanner that is a Visioneer OneTouch 9020USB. I bought it at staples for I think around $99. (bought it in 2004 or 2005). I think on the box it said it had capability to scan slides and inside has these little mat type things that I put the slide on and it centers it right in the middle. Then I had to do some readjusting the settings. I forget how, but am going to have to figure it out again because I've got more slides to scan. I think I either looked it up on the internet. I don't think all scanners have the capability to do slides but am not sure.

We Haven't Done This in Awhile
Show me the area where you live and what attractions are close to you.

Here's where we live:

I'm not either but every once in awhile
there is one that comes along who's personality just captures you!
Yep, I had therapy for awhile too
Therapy didn't take the nightmares away and didn't take away my fears. My anger from it is better but not gone.

I think if I stay a little angry, I will be a little more vigilant and protective of myself. It will not happen to me again.

I can feel sorry for the jerk but can't forgive him for taking my security away from me.

And, before the "holier than thou" people jump on the religious aspect of forgiveness and healing, let me just tell you this.

I have seen many different counselors over the years for this. I even sought counsel from my church back then and I was basically turned into the church sideshow.

These were people I trusted but they let everyone in the congregation know that I was a little sinner and had brought a horrible shame upon myself and my church family.

This was not some kind of fanatical church but I won't say which one.

So in case Georgia Gal is wondering which church, she will continue to wonder. Just know that I will never get over this and I just can't see how she could. Church or no.

I believe in God, I just do not believe in church anymore.
This happened to me awhile ago - sm
This advice worked for me - click on VIEW, TOOLBARS and make sure ADDRESS is checked. If it is then uncheck it and check it again and see if it reappears.

Also check on your standard toolbar where the front and back arrows, refresh, stop and home buttons are. I have accidentally drug mine onto that line before and it was a smaller version of it. If it is there you should be able to click and drag it down to it's own line.

Couger is fun for awhile. s/m
For 2 years after my divorce, it seemed the only men that wanted to go out with me were younger (10-16 years younger!).  I guess all the guys my age were going after the 20-somethings!!.  It was fun for awhile -- they have lots of energy -- but I really wanted someone with a little more experience in life, but who could still keep up with me (and also liked new music!).  Finally I met a guy closer to my age, still 3 years younger, and it will be 6 years in March!!
A friend of mine did some prostitution for awhile
It was before I knew her. She was very young and homeless and trying to survive. While her case isn't what we're talking about here, as she would have been underage anyway, I still can't imagine putting someone in jail and calling them a criminal because they're trying to survive the only way they know how. And of course, once you have that criminal record, it makes it even more difficult to change your life circumstances. It breaks my heart to think of her as young girl and everything she went through. Today you'd never know she lived that kind of life unless you really knew her and could see the emotional scares she carries (most of which aren't from the prostitution but from the abuse and incest she survived). She's an amazing person, with a huge heart, who spends most of her time fighting against poverty for those who can't speak for themselves.

While I don't know the mind of a prostitute, I'd imagine that most fall into the profession because they have few options available to them. Some don't have options, family support, education.

I think by leglizing and regulating it, you'd have less disease and less drug abuse.
Can't be that. I stopped reading your posts to her awhile back.
She laughed a lot, but it was making her vomit so I had to stop.

Thanks for yet another one of your brilliant brain dumps. They're much better for the tulips than the horse manure we were buying.
Anyone ever have a front tooth pulled and have to wear a flipper for awhile up there. nm

Could someone tell me if there is a Christianity board as well as a prayer board (sm)
or are they one in the same? I have some faith related questions, but don't want to post on the prayer board again if it is specifically for prayer requests. I do not see a Christianity board listed. Thanks so much.
Main board, gab board, company, etc, just like here,
x
naw - that was the old board that did that, aka the 'other' board!
why was it here and not on the Politics board anyway?
I haven't done much yet...

I pulled out some flowers that didn't make it to the end of the summer, but some of my annuals look better now than they did earlier so I hate to pull them.  We haven't had a frost yet, so most of my summer stuff looks great.  Once we have a frost, I will pull the annuals and plant my bulbs.


I am in Central PA, so yes the leaves are starting to turn.  They look so pretty.  Where are you?  Your pepper plant sounded interesting.  What kind of weather, growing zone do they like?


I haven't been through this, but...
A good rule of thumb in life is to (1) not worry about things for which you don't have all the information, and (2) not worry about things over which you have no control. You don't have all the information necessary at this point and you definitely don't have control over what's going on, so worrying is absolutely unproductive and is added stress that your baby doesn't need right now.

I wish the best for you. Now go relax and think good thoughts!
I haven't used one myself, but...sm
my parents and sister have had excellent results with theirs.  They both have big, strong dogs - a black lab and a border collie mixed with something big and long-legged - and they both trained very quickly and easily. 
We haven't seen her yet but....sm
if you know of a weekend day in the future that you'd like to go we might could meet you there. I have a zoo membership and can get 1 adult and up to 2 additional kids in for no extra charge. E-mail me if you're interested.
I haven't been there
personally but have a friend who visits it regularly. For her 13th birthday instead of getting presents for herself, she asked the girls she invited to bring a gift for an animal and then spent her birthday up there at the shelter playing with the animals.


No, I haven't seen it.
I'm not sure if I've ever even seen it advertised.
If they haven't been to one themselves, they just don't get it. Wish I could go, too! nm
x
I haven't, but need to.

I only have the one child, also, but a daughter, so I know the feeling of wanting to get that perfect gift for your "one and only."  She is four and wants everything, so I guess that makes it a little easier, since I can buy anything and it will be something that she wanted.   


Your son is going to be SO excited!  What a good mommy you are. 


haven't been there
but just wanted to wish you well. It sounds like you are making the right decision. My husband's father is an alcoholic and from what I have heard (we have talked about it a lot) it is not pleasant for kids. You are making the right decision for them. My MIL did not do the same for her kids but my husband still wishes she had.

His father is still an alcoholic and now we face the difficult decision with his influence on our children. We make the tough decisions that we feel are best for our kids. It's our job as parents and we know it is the right thing to do, despite what others within the family may say, namely the alcoholic FIL and MIL who still stands by his side and takes the abuse.

Good luck. It will all work out in time.
haven't really gotten into them...
although my sister is always seeming to be watching a lifetime movie!!!
They won't or haven't said. What do you think? nm
@
Haven't seen her on HSN
but to answer your question, from what you're probably describing, she's always like that. I saw some of her jewelry on AI and one of the entertainmnet shows. Some of it's really nice and not overpriced from the pieces she had on.
Haven't seen that one all the way thru...
I'll watch it if so!
Haven't tried this yet...sm

but I have this recipe in my "To Try" files.  If the filets are really thin, I would grill them on an oiled sheet of aluminum foil. 


Ingredients
2 pounds flounder fish fillets 
1/2 cup olive oil 
1/4 cup lemon juice 
2 teaspoons salt 
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce 
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning 


Directions
Arrange fish on a well-oiled grill.  Combine remaining ingredients and baste fish.  Grill, turning and basting occasionally, for 10 minutes per inch of thickness or until fish is flaky and no longer translucent in the center. 


Haven't you ever

Haven't you ever said something and after you said it you realized it didn't come out the way you meant it to and you wished you had never said it.  Men act first and think later most of the time.  My son is always teasing his wife, she wants to become a nurse practitioner and he always says he is going to retire when she gets her NP license.  He is kidding but if she was really touchy about it she would get mad.  He is an electrical contractor and makes alot of money but he still says he is going to retire and let her support him. 


Since this is a new relationship for you I would back off a little bit on paying for things.  Think of free stuff to do and spend more time with him getting to know him.  If he is looking for someone to pay the way he will be on his way and you will have your answer.


I did and haven't had any problems at all. nm

I haven't done it in a while, but here is a site
that looks pretty good:

http://ezinearticles.com/?Crate-Training-A-Puppy-Or-Adult-Dog&id=87816

Keeping the crate in the family area during the day and your bedroom at night is very important for a puppy. Being alone is distressing, and they don't learn as well when they are stressed about that.

I know you're probably getting tired and frustrated, but you can do this. Good luck.
No I haven't - is it good? (nm)

What is this show about? Haven't seen it.
x
I haven't seen his show but...

have seen the ads for his show on HGTV.  He looks fun.  Like you would want to invite him over to a party at your house, even if he couldn't decorate for you!! 


Don't know about what he does with silk but whatever it is, I bet it is snappy!!!


I haven't tried it; I am using fitday.com


This website is free and is a tool used to help keep track of your calorie/fat/carb intake. 


I have limited myself to 1000-1200 calories a day.  I was really hungry for the first couple of days, but then I adjusted.  Now, I am not hungry.  If you go less than 1000 calories you won't lose any weight.  I started about 2 mos ago and I just hit the 20-pound mark today.  I don't have time to exercise.  I work full time and have 2 small children.  Now that it is nice, we walk across the street to the park a couple times a week, which doesn't really count 'cause it isn't "strenuous" at all.  Just being more active has helped me.  Plus I feel better about myself. 


I have a long way to go, but I am off to a great start!  Good Luck!!!


 


I haven't but would LOVE to!

OMG! I haven't seen red poppies since I was
a
How do you know they haven't been told already?
Maybe the parent's already told them and the kids or parents are saying anything to anybody about it. Anyhow, it is not your place to tell them.
I haven't ever met my doctor!

I've had her for 5+ years now and have no clue what she even looks like!  No matter where I've lived, I always ask to see the NP, but that's my choice.  I personally prefer seeing NPs, as I think they spend a lot more time with the patient and aren't as harried.  Plus, she's a fatty and I don't feel so bad about myself when I see her and I'm all nudie-toonie!  How bad is that?!  


                                    


Haven't noticed anything like that here
And I live only a few miles from Oklahoma City, which is Sonic HQ.
I haven't heard this? sm
I know she "surrendered" to the police on the DUI charge in May. She wasn't officially arrested until after she finished rehab. I haven't heard about her in jail right now.
I haven't, but mom has. She is doing great. Please sm
don't worry too much about it. I know she just had to have a hysterectomy and then gets checked every 6 months. So far so good.

Right now I am sort of in a scare too. They found a lump in my left breast. Next step is biopsy since ultrasound and mammo were inconclusive. I have been reading everything I possibly can about breast cancer - and I'm worried, too!
Keep us informed. I know you are going to be just fine!
Haven't had cats in a while, but
what I learned was that the most likely thing is a UTI. The cat thinks the pain with urination can be escaped by finding another place to do it.

Or there has been a change in the litter and the cat doesn't like how it feels on the feet or smells.

Or there has been some big change that has rattled the cat, such as a new pet introduced or you moved or I suppose noisy construction, or something major like that.

A cat behaviorist said if infection has been ruled out, the best thing was to offer several litter boxes with different litters and see what the cat likes.

(Cats always want us to remember they are royalty and expect life to quietly revolve around them, lol).


No MRI yet and we haven't been in the woods
She got a few mosquito bites this summer but no ticks. There has been no bullseye rash or anything like that.

What were the Lyme symptoms in your 4-year-old?
I haven't regretted it one bit
I still spot for a day or so, nothing like before though. My only regret is not having had it done sooner and getting so anemic that I had to have IV iron infusions for 5 weeks...go for it, you won't regret it! Good luck!
I haven't watched it, but
I believe it's the real thing. I watch a lot of reality shows, but this one definitely didn't interest me.
Put a lid on the cage if you haven't already - sm
We have 2 hamsters, and the cat just sits on the kitchen table and watches them (they are on a little table in the kitchen). Provides her with hours of enjoyment!
Haven't heard of that but
you might want to have thyroid and ferritin checked.  I actually went to a derm doc for same thing, and he said it's been his experience that a lot of women with hair problem have low ferritin.  Mine was borderline-low, so started taking vitamin with a a little iron in it.  I probably haven't been getting enough iron in diet and stopped taking iron many years ago.  But I think mine is probably a combination of things, since I'm a lot older than you and all the menopause things figured in there too.  My GYN PA, before the derm doc,  basically said yeah, you're old with no estrogen left, think back to when your hair was in its best shape.  Yeah, I remember that when I was pregnant, but kind of patronizing attitude there with no help.  Yeah, I know I'm old, okay?  
Mmm. I haven't had that in years (sm)
I think I had it at a church potluck. I need to make it, I bet my oldest son would love it.
I haven't watched N/T yet
Unfortunately I've got a nasty cold and went to bed really early last night. I'm going to watch it this afternoon. I heard there were major cliffhangers.
I haven't been where you are but wowsers...
I would've had a breakdown simply between the bird cage falling down and the computer breaking down, so you are a WAY more stronger person than I!  That is an awful lot of stuff for one set of shoulders and I cannot blame you one bit for feeling stressed.  Sometimes it helps just to talk about it like you did here...at least to take the edge off a little bit hopefully.  I have absolutely no advice other than to say you indeed have my sympathy...yeowsers.
 
I haven't seen that movie, so I don't know
what part you're talking about.

I HATE watching movies on TV though. I just can't stand how much they cut out, and it always seems to be a part that I wanted to see. I either buy them or rent them. I do netflix and then I can get old and new ones, and I'm bad about returning them on time so the no late fee thing works well for me.
I haven't gotten check yet, but
There was a post about a week ago that someone had already gotten theirs direct deposited.
I haven't watched it yet, but

isn't it to the performer's advantage not to win?  I know they're all under contract because they go on tour, but doesn't the winner have to pay AI a proceed of their net sales if they produce an album?  I might be wrong on that, but I think that's what I remember reading somewhere when the show first started.


If that is the case, David C. would have been very smart not to come out on top last night.  He definitely got great PR and exposure on the show, but now maybe can cut his own deal with AI getting any $$$.


As for the performers, I like them both but have been a DC fan up to this point.  Of course, I haven't watched it yet (thank goodness for DVR), but DA is just a little too young for me and I like more the rock music.
