sounds like your husband has a brain

I'm 58, and the first time I played it, my brain
instructions fully.)
The 2nd time I played, it was harder! More numbers! But I managed to get a brain age of 37.
FUN GAME!
No! That sounds too desperate. TIME. Just give it TIME. If it is real, then sm
something will definitely evolve. If you like him, flirt back! Don't act desperate because if he DOES like you, then the suspense will just make him want to get to know you more. Trust me on this.
I worked in the medical records department of a hospital when I was single and dated a few co-workers in my early 30s. It was fun. Nothing serious came about any of the relationships.
This sounds like fun - the beginning of maybe something to come....Keep us informed.
sounds like you have a good time together
that is so funny!! I love stories like that
Your menu sounds yummy - what time do we eat?
:)
That sounds so YUMMY especially with me craving coffee big time right now!
I have always thought about doing the Gevalia thing. You'll have to let us know how it compares and if it's worth the money.
Sounds great..Question about baking time/temp..sm
How long do you bake the muffins and at what oven temp? These sound wonderful & so much easier than making pumpkin bread. Thanks!
How old is your brain?
This tests what you retain when shown something for brief time. The web site instructions are in Japanese, so read below!
1. Touch 'start'
2. Wait for countdown... 3, 2, 1.
3. Memorize the number's position on the screen, and then click the circles in order from the smallest number to the biggest number.
4. At the end of game, the computer will tell you the age of your brain.

my brain is 22
not so bad, I don't really want it much younger than that :)
My brain is 30 and my age is 42. Not too bad. nm

yo, please open up your brain.....
 
Brain tumor
To those of you that replied regarding my sister's 4-year-old son having a brain tumor, Thank you.
Has he always been like this? Wonder if vascular brain changes
s
Odd. Wonder if she may have a brain tumor?
Although there was a case here where a woman, after her child died, stole over a million from her employer and lost it through compulsive gambling and then committed suicide. In her case, she had always been an upstanding member of the community and had no prior history of gambling. Perhaps anger, stress, and grief contributed to temporary insanity and then appalled by what she had done, she killed herself. Everybody that knew her was just stunned.
Ever have a song going on in your brain that you SM
can't get out? Well, I have Black Eye Peas "Lady Lumps"! I don't even like it, but when channel surfing, MTV2 runs it all the time.  Must be where I heard it.
you can only learn if you have a brain

Brain Droppings fan here
When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops is about as good, in my opinion, as Napalm and Silly Putty! I love his fascination with the nuances of our lovely language.
Brain age 20. Chronologic age 49. nm
You do know the meaning of brain-washed
dont you?? Oh well, I guess he will have to find another way to live now. Pretty soon he will be evicted from the home he is squatting on in the Bahamas. He was her enabler, not her lover and he knew it, might have wanted to be. Larry has already said the grandmother would get visitation rights and I think that is the way it should be.
We have worked it out so that I am the brain and he is the brawn. SM
We are both too cheap and too poor to hire anyone!
Pinky and the Brain are hilarious!!! nm

You said it "rejuvinates brain cells"...sm
I was always told it kills brain cells. I always believed that because I thought my ex was walking proof! lol. Does it really rejuvinate them? I too believe in its usage for medicinal purposes. Back in the day (waaaaay back) I smoked it once when I had an excruciating toothache (cuz that always happens on weekends when the dentist is closed!) and it relaxed me enough to tolerate the pain. It was either that or I was going to overdose on Tylenol, Motrin, whatever I could find cuz they weren't working for crap. I also did it once when I had an earache. (again waaaay back in the day). It works wonders. Doesn't take the pain away but makes it tolerable. I definitely am against using it for recreation. When my ex was getting high it was like walking on pins and needles around him. He was wonderful when he was high but when he wasn't he was just the biggest a-hole!
I'm the one who said it rejuvinates brain cells
I can't remember where I read that exactly, but I read that it rejuvinates brain cells. It does not kill them like we've been told by "the establishment". I did find an interesting link that tells the myths about marijuana - here is the link.

Kinda looks like my brain on Friday.
nm
I enjoyed that. Apparently my brain is
26! That's 14 years younger than the rest of me! LOL
nah -- we killed too many brain cells
snorting the crack OUR parents didn't teach us about!
Geesh -- why always so quick to blame the parents? This kid is 14 years old and knew better than to do this. She chose to do it anyway, just like so many others before her time chose to get up knocked up, strung out on drugs, become an alcoholic, etc.
Yes, the kid screwed up, but that's what kids do. Didn't you ever have a friend who stole a car in high school or got caught cheating and ended up expelled? It's not the end of the world, but spreading it all over the media could very well push this kid over the edge and cause her to hurt herself. She obviously is looking for attention or affection. This is certainly not going to help her.
it took a while, not file, work on the brain-nm

Female anatomy and the brain
I do a lot of neuro dictation and I've noticed that seizures and migraines tend to increase in a lot of females with their menses. Anyone know the link between females having an increase in both of these problems with their menses? Would a hysterectomy be helpful? I'm truly curious about this.
See message, there is something wrong with her brain that we don't understand
I have a niece like this, I type for a psychologist who has numerous patients like this and a lot of it is not their fault, they can have adult ADD, they can have other things medically wrong with their minds, etc. You can either honestly talk to her and tell her how it bothers her and try to help her become organized, accept her as she is or find another friend. I also have a great nephew (son of my niece) that has problems with this and like my doctor tried to explain to me -- they really believe and think that they are finishing projects, turning things in, remembering, keeping organized, etc. Their brain works so different than ours that it is hard for us to understand. But to them, their life is organized, etc. Taking EFA's helps, fish oil helps with the brain. Keeping a calendar helps, keeping schedules really helps. After this many years also it is a habit and a way of life for her but she really does not realize that she is the way that she is. I could not understand how my great nephew felt and believed that he did his assignments and turned them in when he did not -- Dr. J told me that to him he did it and he is not lying. Their brain works differently than ours. It is really hard for us to understand but they really think that they are on top of things. If in other ways she is a good friend, then work with her or accept this but if this is truly bugging you and you have no room for understanding your best bet is to stop the friendship as you are not doing her any good. There is a book out called "Brain Gym" that gives exercises to help with the brain, they are weird exercises but they do work. Again, essentially fatty acid supplements, lots of protein, fish, fish oil helps. Lots of exercise that moves across the midline. Schdules. But she does have a brain malfunction if you want to call it that so understand a little more.
And I think he brain-washed Anna, got her to turn
against her mother, got her to go to the Bahamas, knowing good and well he was not the father- if he were do you not think he would have DEMANDED a DNA some time ago?? So simple if you think about it. He did not give 1 at the end and last night when his family was on Entertainment Tonight, I could tell by the way they were talking was not his, telling how they hated for the kid to be taken away- it is NOT his kid. He was the same as kidnapping the child, otherwise like I said the DNA would have been done at the beginning. Use your senses, ok?
Here you go...say it changes brain chemistry and metabolic limits (sm)

yes, melatonin works - is what the brain naturally releases for sleep...
I take half and I'm asleep in under 3 - 5 minutes. Wake up fresh and clear. no overhang.
Senator Kennedy diagnosed with malignant brain tumor.
He has to have radiation and chemotherapy. Hopefully he can recover from this.
Cuz you're numbing your brain so you feel no pain! Flavored brandy

You may be, from the sounds of your posts, sounds like an *illegal*
and that in itself is a crime. Nobody else would take 65.00 for an entire day slaving/laundry, heavy cleaning, etc. LOL. Nah, I don't think so. I'm just saying, what it sounds like to me. : )
He sounds wonderful...sounds like you two have a relationship (sm)
based on love and nothing superficial at all. I'm glad you appreciate him and are so grateful for him. Best wishes & continued happiness to you both :-)
Totally agree, get these from time to time since teens...sm
It's a neuro condition, it does not mean there is anything at all wrong with you, it is actually related to narcolepsy, hypnagogic (sp? I just got up!) hallucinations, etc. And I HATE when I get these, it is always freaky, my siblings get this too, at times. I can "go away" for years and years before you get another episodes, so don't worry! I heard that when you are under a lot of stress or are very busy with things that this happens more??? Take care!!
It's time to stop when you or the kid(s) feel it is time, and no sooner. sm
My grandmother (who passed away at the young age of 107 back in the mid 1990s) was STILL celebrating every little holiday for all of her many kids and grandkids, and she would STILL give me a chocolate bunny every Easter, as she had since I was a toddler and even though I was 40ish at the time (and I still delighted in biting its head off in front of her, as I had also done since I was a toddler, which always met with mock disapproval from her).
Don't let anyone dampen your joy in celebrating your traditions.
Change Your Brain, Change Your Life
I read a book once with the above title. I can't remember the author. He has done a lot of testing (and imaging) and says that often people actually have small amounts of brain damage they are not aware of that cause chronic behavioral issues.
He says that even little incidents of falling off a bike, etc. can cause damage that people aren't aware occurred.
I'm not saying this is your son's case, but I think you will have to keep investigating. Even with those who have damage, they are able to use meds to help the brain compensate for the affected area, which helps greatly.
I'm sorry you are going through this. It has to be awful for the whole family and hurtful to know your son is feeling in such a way to act that way.
I'm sure there is an answer somewhere. I hope you find it soon! - Please keep us posted.
The very 1st time he talked about killing you, was the time
The guy sounds like a psycho.
Rachael Ray has a segment from time to time
on using the bottom of the bottle receipes (i.e. bar-be-q sauce, peanut butter, maple syrup) and I have used many of her ideas and been amazed at how far you can stretch a dollar that way. Go to her website, it will give you many ideas.
Oh Amy, surely there was a man who "kept" you from time to time..
or you were at least married and had access to money!
It was a great time - I just hate the time we are in now
I liked your post. Thanks for replying It's nice to know other people were raised like me. We seem to appreciate the things we have. Oh I should've also said we didn't have A/C growing up. My parents idea of A/C was having my sister and I wave a piece of cardboard in front of them. HA HA HA.
I just couldn't stand the 90s and 2000s are even worse. I hate all the politics going on today, the world events, the bleak future. The degenerates running around, listening to kids talk back to their parents, girls gone wild, etc, etc. I'm grateful my grandparents and mom are not alive anymore to have to go through this with us.
I love watching old movies and the music of the 40s/50s. If I was alive back then I would've been doing the jitterbug and all those other fun dances. Life seemed simpler and cleaner (even though I've got a mouth like a sailer - guess I got that from my Army days).
I wouldn't mind the turn of the century either. I love the clothing and the simple life. Those are the times when the husband took care of the wife. If I could be transported back to the 1800s I surely would in a second.
Time out and then spanking if time out
If we are out in public however, we do not go home. Spanking right there and then and the kids learn REAL QUICK mom means business. I do not mess around and I have a 17-year-old now that has enlisted in the military and THANKS me for his tough upgrowing. It helped him through basic training.
Well, I have questioned myself from time to time.
I figured this was typical. DD has lots of friends but two real close friends. I guess this is all part of building social skills. I am glad I did okay then.
Same thing happens to me from time to time - sm
if I roll over too quickly. I have positional vertigo. There is not too much you can do about it except try not to move or get up too quickly from a supine position. I have never had an earache in my life either so that has nothing to do with it. I don't ever feel sick from it though, just more of a nuisance for me every now and then. If it keeps happening obviously get checked out, you may have a more severe case, though again there really not much you can do about it, all it is is some particles in your ear breaking loose and that causes the dizziness, etc.
If I had not asked time and time again
for the daughter to ask me are you upset- are you angry- are you in a bad mood- People can think what they want- She is a very intelligent person and my asking to please should be enough. Gest of the posting. Selfish, OMG, that is really a laugh. I have and do take care of others well before my needs- I have given of myself, my time, my finances, the whole thing until, now this will sound selfish- it is my time now. I take care of me now- this is selfish but this is the truth. I raised my family, did all I could (still do for the daughter if she needs assistance which she never asks for but I offer)and now in golden years, me time.
Yes. Next time put a time limit on it., but is there any way you

I keep it in the office part time and on the patio part time
I've got the self-cleaning electric litter box (and boy is it worth the $100), and have a huge throw rug under it with a smaller rug by the litter pan that has a bumpy mat on top of it to catch the excess. I keep it in the office from April to October but on the patio from October to March as it is too hot in FL to leave the patio door open for them during the summer months. I also put out a spare box when we go out of town for the weekend.
Try a box that has deeper sides maybe, or not as much litter in it?
Sounds like you are doing everything right...
Hang in there. It sounds to like you are doing everything right. I totally agree that kids are under too much pressure these days and that they certainly need to be given more time to just be kids. Being a single mom I try make sure that my children grow up to be responsible adults with good morals and values, but I also make sure that they have their space so they have a chance to make their own choices (when possible) and see the consequences of those choices. Being a parent is certainly not easy and doing it in today's society is stressful to say the least.
As for your neighbor, I think she could take some lessons from you. Good luck and keep your chin up!!!
