I had what I think is a blood vessel to burst in my foot on the side. My hubs says not a big deal, and maybe it is not but it seems to have spread a little, not over the top of the foot but bigger on the side of the foot. Had anyone had a similar happening? I am one of the older MTers so might just be an aging thing? Thanks.

Those quotation marks and apostrophes don't show up on this board, do they!
Also, forgot to mention that the Prius is a whopping 90% less emissions than a regular combustion engine. That's a plus. The electric engine supplements the gas and so the car never loses ground going up hills, great pick up. And don't worry about the rumor that says the batteries eventually die and need pricey replacement. That's not true. There are several individual cells that are not at all expensive to replace and should last many, many miles. There are lots of older Prius on the road now that are going strong after 200,000 miles on the road with not even one cell replacement, much less the entire battery system. They are THE standard for hybrid design right now.
You can find out more about them at the dealer or by googling. The tech-geeks really like the car and put out lots of detailed information on the internet about the Prius.

Feels like fall
There's a nip in the air today and a cool breeze with a hint of the smell of apples. I have a tart warmer burning that smells like pumpkin pie all through the house, yum. I love this time of year in the Northeast. Can't wait for the leaves to start changing color. 
Come to NC mountains in the fall.
What a great place to be in the fall if you enjoy being outside, hiking. There are resorts where you can play golf, if that's your thing. Or come to the coast in September or October. The water is still warm and often there are still warm days, but not hot (well, except this year, when it's stayed hot until now).
Don't cushion her fall sm
You did not cut "her" off per se, you stopped enabling her to take advantage of you. You are not a bank, a restaurant or a hotel. She will never learn and will get into deeper trouble later on. You should still love her but not the behavior. I have had to do this with siblings and at first was sick over it, but have stopped enabling. I'm a little lonelier but not being "used" anymore. They will keep asking until the well runs dry and the first time you say "no," you're the witch, so most of us have walked your walk. It does hurt but, "I love you, but 'no' is my answer." Take care of yourself.
Did my fall yard work!
I took out three evergreen bushes that for some reason developed fungus. I replaced two with the round Little Giant arbivortae bushes - so cute. I couldn't do three because the third would have died from too much shade. I did put a Japanese iris in that spot. I put in a cute ornamental pepper plant. It has tiny peppers on it that are purple, red, orange, and yellow, so it's pretty funny. I surrounded it with purple pansies and orange pansies. I had to remove some sod to make room for these in my central bed. (Stupid Bermuda grass). I tidied up some other bushes, but was afraid to prune the azalea because I think it might be the wrong time. Besides, it is guarded by a huge yellow and black spider. I allow her to live because she never moves since DH explained to her that she can't live by the light at the front door. She is HUGE.
I'm very tired now and I think I have a sore throat, but hopefully the yard will look good when the kids and parents come trick or treating.
Anybody else do some good yard work? I suppose leaves are already falling up North.
The Apple Does Not Fall Far From the Tree
I agree with you, Unhappy Camper -
There is little accountability in today's youth as a whole. The kids that are responsible, that know the consequences and live accordingly are the minority. Teens in the military are taught accountability and responsibility if they don't already have those attributes courtesy of their parents.
Interesting article I read in my hometown paper about an underage drinking party where over 25 kids were arrested for illegal possession of alcohol. One of the cops interviewed said out of the 25 parents that had to come and pick up their children, only one, ONE, told their child they got exactly what they deserved and that consequences would result. The others were mortified that their kids were being held, humiliated, and treated like criminals, then berated the cops for having nothing better to do, etc. We wonder why there are problems? The kids want the privileges of being an adult, but not the responsibility, thanks to mom and dad. One cop summed it up precisely. He said when he was a teen, he and his friends did not fear getting caught by the police, they were more afraid of getting caught by their parents.
As a result of such parenting, or lack thereof, it would bother me to see the drinking age lowered. If they don't hold their kids accountable, how can we by allowing the age to be lowered?
Iowa feels like fall too!
I just am not really thrilled for the thing that follows fall. I hate hate hate hate hate hate winter.
We were in the 40s temperature wise this morning. I have my portable heater toasting my toes when I work!
I fall out of bed, grab some coffee and
head to my office in my PJs at 6 a.m. On my break, I change into sweats or street clothes, depending on whether or not I have to leave the house.
That is such a beautiful fall picture!
You can almost smell the leaves and the fall air! That is one happy doggie!
or - "The fall alone will probably kill ya!"
Is this Boliva??
you know, asthma does fall under the ADA and if that is the case.... sm
then she might have to work with me and give me another apartment. I will have to check into it. I am in Pennsylvania and I will check it out. It would be a lot less expensive to move to another apartment than to do a whole big move. thanks very much!!
if you go to Pismo...go in the spring or fall...
Summer is very very foggy most of the time (I went to college in San Luis Obispo about 15 miles away). Also, if you do go, you MUST go to Del's pizza in Shell Beach for dinner one night. Fairly inexpensive and very good food--not just pizza. In my opinion, it is the best restaraunt in the area.
Do those stay on or do they fall off when the kitty scratches?
Also, where do you get those?
HA! Same spider that made me fall down in public (sm)
One of my most embarassing moments!! I was in a busy public area with a park in the middle. I decided to cut through the park and walked right through a web of one of those and the spider was on my face!!! I fell onto the ground, freaking out, flailing like a madwoman. When I finally got up and realized what I had just done, I couldn't wait to get the heck out of there, but I kept shaking my clothes and brushing my hair, just in case!!
POLL:What show are you looking forward to this fall?
I just Netflixed the first season of Friday Night Lights and I am HOOKED! What a wonderful show. I can't wait for that to start.
Also, looking forward to Gray's Anatomy, but hoping for a much lighter season this fall. Last year was such a drag after the first two.
yep - Spring ahead, Fall back.....
First significant snow fall here today
We've had enough to make it slick on the roads, lots of ice and cold but this is the first time it is really snowing and actually accumulating and because it is going to be cold for a couple of days it may stay on the ground. It is pretty, but I hate winter. On the up side, I don't have to go out in it!!
I put mine in the crock pot and they just fall off the bone
Although that wouldn't be an option for you now since it takes all day.
Your probably not gonna like this but
I had/have the same problem. I finally made up my mind to exercise, so I joined the local YMCA. I couldn't believe how much better I felt. Unfortunately, I haven't gone back since before Christmas -- and guess what? -- I'm started to feel the fatigue coming back.
I live in horrible winter weather country, so walking doesn't appeal to me during winter months. It is very difficult to make up your mind and do something about it, even though ya know your going to feel better. I'll get there - Good luck
gonna get along without you now by
skeeter davis (really ooold)when I was younger. now it would more likely be This Gun for Hire!lol
of course im gonna ask!
but that's just me being nosy :)
Hope all is well and it was the right thing for everyone!

i dont even know if ill be a mom by that age!
Im not gonna lie...
those swiffer jet commercials got me.
so i have one. It works fine for regular mopping, but i haven't really had to SCRUB the floor since i bought the house so not sure... plus i have laminate wood floor not ceramic so not sure if there would be a difference...
We're having a big fall/Halloween party on Sunday. sm
 I need some great ideas to ask guests to bring - Husband and I are providing the main meal but I'm asking some friends and relatives to bring "side" items. The main dish will be chili dogs. I asked friend to bring a few bags of chips. Anything else interesting a few people can bring to accompany? Not everyone is bringing something. We do this every year, have hay rides, and it lasts all day. We play games and give out prizes. It's a blast. A lot of people from our church will be coming. I'm really not the only one hosting it, but the other hosts need to know what to bring...I can't think of anything interesting besides drinks and chips!
I'm making my famous marshmallow witches again this year and another gal is bringing baby cany apples by scooping out a portion of an apple with a melon thingie and dipping those in caramel. I've never heard of them before but she said they were so cute! What do you creative women think??I need to let my other hostesses know today some time. thanks!!
I love fall - beef stew & cherry pie nm

I am so tired of hearing how people fall for scams
You do not have to be old to be taken in so let's shelf that right now. I just saw on a judge show where a lady gave a guy 1500.00 out of her acct, leaving her with $81. This person thought she would get repaid and then make some. I read about people answering ads saying send in XXX and make $5,000.00 a day, week, whatever fits in here. I see where people stopped outside a store, a person has found a bundle of money and they want you to go to the bank and get the same amount, then all that to be put in the bundle and you get half of that? Can we say flim-flam? I cannot believe all the gulliable, seems like you have never been outside your home, absolutely idiotic people in my life. Why am I getting so angry listening to all this. I really am just BURNT up.
it it's gonna cause a problem to say something,
give her only a little bit of candy each day, she's 9, she'll understand why too much is bad, and if mom is already packing stuff away, then the kid isn't missing it, so donate it to a thrift shop.
did you say she is gonna be in the circus?

Guess I'm gonna have to git my gun
As I sit here in the middle of the night pecking my lil ol fingers to the bone once again something has the dogs extremely upset. This has happened twice now... dogs barking and growling and staying all upset for about an hour, then something hits the side of my house, they continue to bark and carry on nonstop for about 30 minutes after that then they finally shut up. First time it happened called my hubby, he told me to get his big shotgun and told me which shells went in it. It's still got the shells in the chamber, all I gotta do is pump it and fire. I guess if it is somebody it's gonna scare the H*** out of them and maybe they will leave me alone. Hey, who knows, might actually be some stress relief while I'm sitting here working on crap and not making anything more than peanuts! Heheheheee... maybe next time it happens it will coincide with the PMS monster.
Thanks everyone - I'm gonna try your ideas and see how it goes! (nm)

And I'm gonna applaud yours!
I agree, although I am not quite old enough to be a grandma yet, we still got spankings, but not too many because after 1 or 2, we usually learned our lesson. I spank my kids too, when they need it, just a swat on the butt usually does the trick. I also agree with the switches suggestion, better yet make HIM go pick it...good luck and God bless!
I'm gonna have to jump out on a ...
limb here and say that you don't deserve the two kids that you have since you aren't talking to one because of money and you get mad at your other child for calling you and asking if you are upset. OMG......seriously. Get your head checked!
Are you also perimenopausal or in premenopause? Making my hair fall out like crazy as my

I'm not working either; it's a good thing, since my thumb feels like it will soon fall off - n

Not the pedal foot!!! arg
I dropped a HUGE heavy glass cooking dish on my pedal foot, actually knocked it off the stove onto my foot. Fortunately it didn't break but holy freaking crap does my foot hurt. I'm sure my foot isn't broken but the whole area that got hit is now a nice shade of black. I am not ambidextrous with my feet! lol. Kay...done with my pity party.
Did it help your foot swelling too? (sm)
Because I have that too. And I get so sleepy I can barely stay awake!
With foot & mouth going around, I'd
call the answering service number and ask the MD on call if it can wait.
If they were just clear blisters I'd guess it was a contact dermatitis, but the blood would make me act on this.
LOL!! Should be dog food (not foot!!!) nm

claw foot
Same thing happened to me - my sister wanted it desperately, but they got rid of it before we could ask for it. Absolutely the most comfortable tub I have ever had. The rolled edge is perfect for you head/neck, deep enough for lots of bubbles. Those were the days!
