Sugar Mama joke?

I am just about 4 months single now and recently started dating a guy - was looking for someone with a good heart, compassionate, etc. He seems to fit that bill. He has some financial worries but money is not something I am looking for. I work very hard and get some money from my ex husband, child support, etc. I paid a couple of times when we went out because I have no problem with that if it is my idea to go somewhere and he says up front he doesn't have the money to go. But today he called and I said I had to work because in my profession if I'm not working, I'm not making money, and he said, "yeah, I can't have a sugar mama who is not making any money so you better get back to work." I said in a mad voice, "You can't have a sugar mama either way!!!" He laughed and we hung up. A few min later he called back and I didn't answer, and he left a message saying he hoped I knew he was joking. But I am a single mother and to me that type of joke has a grain of truth to it. I feel like a mama bear - I am furious. I have accepted his health issues, his ED issues, etc., but I am just plain furious about that joke. Do you think I am making to much of it or do you think my instincts are correct?

MAMA MIA
Just wanted to let you know if you need a good laugh, go see MAMA MIA at the movie theatre. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it made me laught a lot which is good for anyone. The music is all by Abba and I remembered some of the songs. Anyway, just like to share when you can find a movie that entertains you and makes you laugh.
OH mama
Rest assured that if I don't speak to my real mama EVERY DAY, she will send the cops out :)
Mama's boy
Yes, he has ALWAYS depended on mamma. She has gotten him out of so much financial and law trouble. Everytime money issues come up he says his mom will give us some. And you know, mama ain't always gonna be there for him. She won't live forever. But he wastes money like it ain't nothing. Has a VERY bad habit that he wastes tons on and I can't stop him. He has already ruined my credit..I lost my car, my credit cards, my cell phone. I have nothing left. I will check out those books.
get rid of both, I mean MIL and Mama's boy!..lol...nm

Mama took my eyebrows.
Still laughing over that line and the look on her face.
Mama Tiger :)
:) I know, I have never heard of a live in maid but I'm keeping an open mind and not expecting much you know? The thing about it is there are certain things I could stand. Nudists? i dont care! As long as I am not required to be nor is there any weird touching. Of course, i dont REALLY know how i'd feel in that situation. but I keep to myself in my room a LOT obviously as an MT... so I'm just keeping my fingers crossed this is just like keeping up house like I would keep up my own... and maybe they are just busy professionals?! :)
tragic sad mama fer sure
We were discussing Julia Roberts the other day. Some just disappear to live a nice life with their kids and others...
How to handle mama cat.
A few months ago a stray calico started coming to my door. I found her to be very friendly and so I let her in when I am working. I started feeding her. She keeps me company. I haven't really taken her to the vet yet as I was still wondering if she might be a neighbors cat but none will claim her so I guess she is officially mine. H agreed to keep the cat outside. He doesn't want house animals of any kind so I feed her outside but I will let her in during the day time and H has agreed when the weather is cold she can stay closed up in the Utility room at night. Anyway, she had 4 kittens in the neighbors wishing well a week ago. I am taking her to the vet to get her fixed as soon as she quits nursing. I don't know how long that will be though. The neighbors said that she and her babies can stay as long as they need to. Anyway, as I was typing along I heard a mew mew. I looked behind me and see mama carrying one of her kittens into my girls bedroom. I have my door open and she can get through a hole in the screen. My girls would love that but I know H wouldn't. What should I do?
Both of my children, 24 and 25, call me mama. Always
have and I love it.
Pam Anderson: Hot Babe or Sad Mama?
Pamela Anderson is a biological enigma.
One minute she looks smokin' hot walking the runway at Richie Rich's fashion show in NYC -- and the next she makes you want to get a 1999 pashmina to cover up the 41-year-old mother of two.
There's a thin bikini line between sexy and tragic.
I used to be a pajama mama, but I'm a Flybaby now.
I've been trying to get the hang of FlyLady, and it's starting to work. I always used to be dressed in my flannel sleep pants, but now I get dressed every day before I even come downstairs. I still don't wear any shoes. FlyLady seems to think that's very important, but I don't. Usually jeans or casual slacks with enough Lycra to make 'em comfy for all day sitting. I'm also putting on light make-up in the a.m., just foundation, a little bronzer and some blush. Hubby has noticed, and he's been kissing me as soon as he walks through the door!
I get Mommy and Mama for now, DH get Daddy, Dada (sometimes) - sm
I kind of like Mama though, guess it will change over to Mom soon though as they are 7 and 8 now. A girl in our Brownie troop has to call her mom, Ma'am, which I think stinks and I feel bad for the kid (and the mom as she is just making her child feel unwanted I think, plus it is a little weird).
That's why they're called Mama's Boys. nm

Drama mama- judge ordering Paris
back to jail. Supposedly a rash was the cause of her getting out but now they report it was she nearly had a mental breakdown. She should follow the fricking laws just like you or I do and maybe little miss twit wouldn’t land in the slammer. I feel no sympathy at all. I think, as well as probably millions of others, she is no better than anyone else. The judge is ticked she was let out, GOOD FOR HIM.

Sugar free
My husband is diabetic and my oldest son is hyperactive. We use splenda. For Kool-aid we just buy the old fasioned with no sugar and add the splenda. I actually use is everyday. It works in everything except for brownies and fudge and things like that.
We are actually making pecan pie, pumpkin pie, choco-cake and even cranberry sauce for thanksgiving with it. Give it a try we did and it is the only "sugar" in our house now.
Good Luck
No sugar, low fat desserts
My very best friend just found out she has sugar. She is on a low sugar, low fat (carb?) diet. Well, she is coming over tomorrow night and I don't have a clue what to offer. I usually bake something (brownies, omg), so need some help, PLEASE! and thank you...
Sugar Substitutes
Splenda is not a good *sugar free* substitute either. You have to read the packaging. It uses High Frutose Corn Syrup *HFCS*, which is sugar, and an additive that addicts you to eating more with cravings. I have done alot of research on this subject, as I want to live a healthy life without government/pharmaceutical intervention. I care about what I eat and you would be AMAZED at how much the upper eschelon is not telling the american public about what is being added to our food. I have learned that Xylitol is the only safe sugar substitute that does not include high fructose corn syrup. try to keep in mind the great cigarette coverup concerning nicotine and other additives to keep people addicted to and buying their products. the same is true with our food, hence obesity/diabetes/other illnesses attributable to food additives such as hormones and growth stimulators. be aware. JMO.
try going sugar free if you can - sm
no sugar made me feel 20 years younger. sounds strange but it is true.
if you are presently on sugar, it will be hard for a few days, but really worth it. i personally cannot do a gradual weaning off sugar but need to go cold turkey. same with white foods - white bread, white flour, white crackers, white whatever. i eat protein, protein, protein when getting off sugar. fish, skinless boneless chicken, every 1/2 hour if you are hungry. after a day or two, you will not want sugar or white foods. you will be satisfied with lean protein - the less beef the better - and vegetables. and no milk or milk products. sounds strange, i know, but i would be willing to bet my next paycheck that you would feel 150% better. eat like that for awhile and then start adding back in the foods you cut out. one at a time. gradually. maybe one food every 2 weeks. and notice how you feel. your body will tell you what it does not like. yogurt was the first food i added back in and right away my nose started running, clear drainage, knew that i could not handle yogurt.
that is just what i have done and what works for me. not medical advice at all. just my experience.
RE sugar in diet
When my mother was dx as being diabetic, I started using sweetener substitutes, thinking that would be better than real sugar. Dr. Gott, a physician who responds to letters much like Dear Abby in our local newspaper, had a patient write in that when she went on vacation and no longer used the sweeteners during that time, her leg pain went away. When she got back from vacation and started drinking her diet sodas and artificial sweeteners, her pain came back. She was able to determine that she has an "allergy" to the stuff. I only drank one diet soda a day and one cup of tea with artificial sweetener a day, but I thought I'd try this with my leg pain/issues. Hard to believe, but it's made a world of difference. I've been 3 weeks without the stuff and can't believe the difference.
Dr. Gott is a supporter of the no flour, no sugar diet. If it contains flour or sugar, to not eat it. A lot of people have wrote to him with success with being on the diet. I did it for a while, did great, but like all diets I didn't make it a lifelong commitment.
Oh that's right! Carrots have sugar don't they? sm
Peas do too, another of my favorites right along with the oranges, bananas and grapes I have in the fridge. Sigh. Guess I had better get a book on low sugar cooking since I will be taking high doses of corticosteroids again real soon. That will certainly send my glucose into orbit.
Sugar Cookies
Is anyone out there a good baker? Looking for a good recipe for the B I G sugar cookies, not those small ones you can buy, slice and bake at the store. I think some also call them sour cream cookies . . . not sure. They are about 3 inches round and maybe 1/2 inch high. You can top them with icing or sprinkles or colored sugars. Thanks in advance.

Thank you! I will try this very soon. Sounds Yummy!!!!
No sugar in my cornbread - just in my tea!

Have your blood sugar checked! I'd nod off (sm)
to the point that my nose would actually touch the keyboard!! While funny, it was also a symptom. I had undiagnosed diabetes and would just "poop" out when my blood sugar was too low (or even too high!). According to my doctor there's more undiagnosed diabetes out there than you'd believe!

Candles (try Sugar Shack) s/m
They're out of Edgar, NE. I fell in love with a Plumeria one when visiting a sister up there. Started ordering them, then got a tax ID #, attempted to sell them, but never made any $ on them. The votives are pretty good, but with the regular candles, they're in glass jars, which keep the fragrance really well. You may want to check out their w/s. Not sure how far you are from NE. Obviously I am, being in TX.
I will LMAO when you end up sad and alone--no sugar daddy. nm

I call it like I see it, don’t try to sugar coat
What do you call a single person intentionally taking fertility drugs when having 6 kids already? As far as the reduction thing, that had been brought up by the physicians when this person was pregnant- I was not the first to think of that and it is done all the time with multiple pregnancies. Check it out on google.
Have you ever had your blood sugar suddenly
I was just wondering, because I think that's what happened to me today just as I was finishing up with getting a little exercise this afternoon. Usually a piece of meat or cheese and I'm completely normal again, but this time it's much slower to go away. Just as I was about to call it a day anyway, I suddenly got very weak-feeling and slightly nauseous, & a little light-headed. Sat down until it passed, then skipped going to the market afterward, like I'd planned, and came home. While driving home I was sweating so much that in about 10 minutes I was soaked. I came inside, had some cheese and some slices of chicken, then lay down, using a big bath towel as a blanket since that's what was handy. Soon that was soaked, too. Felt better about 30 minutes later, took a hot shower and had some dinner. Now I'm almost back at baseline. I've had similar spells very occasionally in the past, but they always cleared up within minutes of having either some protein or a banana. Does that sound like a hypoglycemic episode to you? I'm not diabetic, in fairly good shape, not overweight, and do tend to eat a lot of sweets.
This little smiley shows how quickly it comes on, and how it feels!
Question about sugar free products
I love sugar free stuff (soda, kool-aid, etc), but i've heard that phenylkeroturic (not sure if i spelled it right) wasn't good for you. have any of you heard this or know of a place to find out more info? i'm going to try google. my kids like the sugar free kool-aid and i don't want to give it to them if it's not good.
thanks
Hmmm, less sugar helps your pain? sm
Geesh, I'll have to try cutting back. Since the holidays when I way overdid the whole sweets issue, I find my pain has increased signficantly, but I assumed it was due to all the painting I have been doing in addition to all the stress. I take Relafen 200 4 tabs daily and have Darvocet for the more severe pain, but I only use that at night, unless of course I have a nasty daytime headache, then I take one. I only take 1 day ususally. Would like to be able to cut back on both but it hasn't been possible.

We love him! He doesn't sugar coat...
anything, which is why I like him so much. If you are in debt and drowning it's usually your own fault by overspending, buying too much house, trying to keep up appearances. While I do understand when there are medical bills, etc, causing debt, when you have a couple of car payments, a huge mortgage, a boat payment, and every credit card charged to the hilt, it's your own fault, not the credit card companies. Live like no one else so later on you can live like no one else! We loved seeing him in October and will probably go see him again this year.

Warning....!!!!
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas. Luckily my friend told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get out of the car. Then we received this email yesterday:
'WARNING FROM POLICE - BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)'
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating... You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You start the engine and shift into Reverse. When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the m iddle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car. And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car. So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away. Remove the paper later. And be thankful that you read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep this going
Hopefully this is a joke...sm

No Joke
There was a couple on one of the talk shows that did it. In fact, the person who first started it was a minister. I think maybe he wrote a book about it? He's been on the talk show circuit as well. (This was a few months ago)
Yes, I know, it was a joke. But
I cannot miss to notice that in EVERY joke Mr. Tech Support posts the 'macho- man' comes through!
