I understand, it's a part of you. You're normal!

I dunno - how can I be sure they're really my siblings? : ) nm

dunno what state you're in but NEVER was I fined
Well, I did file quarterly for about 3 years but not one time in over 7 years of paying yearly was I ever fined by the IRS. I don't really think STATEs have anything to do with it so please ignore my subject line *lol*.......Perhaps you owed or something from prior? Perhaps not. I paid in one lump last year an estimated tax upon asking for my first extension ever - and they returned NEARLY all of what I had sent in - I over-guestimated.......by a milestone...
You're not supposed to take Tylenol
if you consume alcohol. Don't take it if you consume alcohol regularly, and don't take it if you drink a lot of alcohol in one night.
Is that supposed to be funny? Like you're out sm
shopping in Lane Bryant or someplace, minding your own business, and some nut comes up and shoots you for no reason? Yeah, that's really natural selection... Geeze. Insensitive.
You mean we're supposed to WEAR stuff this job?!
Oh dear. That would explain this rash on my buttocks then.
I actually do have a set of scrubs I wear on laundry day. They are the most comfortable things I own but unfortunatley they are not too warm. Otherwise I can usually be found in my jeans or bib overalls and a T-shirt or flannel shirt, depending on temperatures. When I get up, the first chore is to get everyone outside to go pee and then everyone eats before I do, so I have to be dressed for that occasion. My office faces the path to the animals, and every day the daycare kids from across the road come by to see them and they wave to me through the window, so it's best that I look not totally terrifying.
you can get MREs on ebay...they're supposed to be a lot better than they were
right
Maine here. We're supposed to get up to a foot of snow by tomorrow
It's freezing up here right now.
You're supposed to have an exam every year. Most vision insurance
plans pay for new lenses once a year and new frames every two years. I go every two years for both and exam and new glasses because usually my frames are out of wack with loose screws and the like by the then and I just get it all at once.
However, I don't know the rules for contact lenses as I've never liked them, but I do seem to recall with my sister that there is a yearly exam required especially if you are wearing those disposable ones.
You're totally right-on with that, especially the part
about the religious right-wingers getting hissy about a fetus, but stepping over the body of the same child if it dies of starvation or child abuse after it's been brought into the world.
How do you spell ----
H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E ??
Oh, I really think you should go to a derm for that, besides having them removed safely....sm
if any look suspicious you would have the opportunity to have them biopsied for your future health. Just want you to be careful!!!
yo trose? What is *normal*? Normal means
*normal*? that only means one has a preconceived idea of what sanity is....
which I don't - so I have no answer......*lol*
Aging - How old is your Mom?

Aging parents
Well, ya know, you just do what you need to do during these times. I helped care for both my folks and they each died in their mid 60s of cancer. I did a lot of praying to find the strength and really kept remembering I only had one mom and one dad and after all they had given up to give us kids a good life growing up, it was the absolutely least I could do. My brothers and sister were just great too and we got to the point we took shifts, even when they were hospitalized. Looking back, we had some really very nice moments. I can actually say I have no regrets and feel no guilt about perhaps what I should have done later. If you do have siblings, ask for help. Take care of yourselves as you really are not as capable of caring for your parents otherwise.
Anyone with a printer deskjet know why it prints a page with part of it dark and part of it light.
It is not printing uniformly.

Anyone here caring for aging parents?
Whoof. This is so very hard. My mother is/was a brilliant educator, highly respected in her field.
We are walking a very thin line these days. I just hate it, and I do not use that word often.
We have found an assisted living facility that she likes, and I do as well. But, she is not liking the fact that she must decide. Oh, it is so very hard.
She was quite ill back in the summer, went to a nursing home for therapy (to recover from pneumonia), and then home. She is failing, and not going "gentle into that good night." She wants so very much to live on her own, but it is such a struggle. I am afraid for her, and I am so very tired.
Is anyone else living with this? If so, what do you do? I have read a thousand articles, talked with so many specialists, and still am lost.
what's *normal*?? Normal only means one has a
I understand about the aging parents thing
because I was there also, older brother had died and just me for not only mother, father but also my stepmother whom I adored. My mother died first, then my stepmother and father killed in accident at age 90 but I worried so much about stepmom and father- I lived close enough to where I could be there in a couple of hrs and told them phone call away. It is not easy but I really understand. I think most of the younger crowd now is too much of a me generation for the same consideration.
Check with your local department of the aging, too. nm

as I'm aging, I do not like HEAVY pots/pans
La Crueset was too heavy for me as is cast iron plus cast iron is bad for people with hepatitis problem(s) so I tend to stay away from cast iron (puts off iron in the food and hepatitis C feeds on iron) as I have a family member with this particular hepatitis.
My hands are also very bad after transcribing for 30+ years - so I tend to want nonaluminum lighter cookware which would be something like Farberware or Revereware if they still make the latter. *lol*
anyone have an aging dog on meds for arthritis pain??? sm
my bassett is 13 years old and has arthritis in her hips and probably other joints. the vet put her on Carprofen and the first few days she did great! then she started having diarrhea and acting like she's hurting again (shaking, panting, a little whining). I told vet, she said to stop meds until she is over her "sour belly". she tested her diarrhea and it was fine, no blood or parasites. she went without her medicine for a day and a half and it showed, as she couldn't walk as well (which before she went on this medicine she couldn't use her back legs). so i started giving her medicine again. vet said the carprofen was going to be temporary. i was reading some bad side effects for this medicine. i think this medicine is making her have the diarrhea. she's only been on the medicine for about a week and a half at the most.
just wondered if anyone else had pets with arthritis problems and what you used to help. i'm not sure if i should try something alternative. or maybe even Dr. Frank's spray.
thanks
It's not the dancing part, it's the people part that I don't like. K? We clear now?

I dunno....
it sounds good in a Chicken Soup for the Soul kind of way but it just seems like in real life things never work out like that, especially if the kid is emotionally disturbed.
i dunno about that...
my husband is 37 and he's not humanoid! LOLOLOLOL
I dunno . . . . . . .
I just built a 600 sq ft addition on my house that is essentially a big screened porch. This way the cats can go outside and play and roll in the dirt and dead grass (and then go on the bed, but that's another story) and not roam around the neighborhood and get in fights with the neighbor's cats.
Oh, yuck
Where do you live Jai? I thought we had it bad. It's never that cold, but where I live we're always on the national news for having the most snow in NYS.
We are getting it to, but yuck!! sm
My doggies are loving it though! They were our romping in it instead of going potty..and my new puppy was even playing in it. Glad you like it so much..it is beautiful to look at, I just hate being out in it.
dunno how old you are but I'm pushing 60
BCPs were most definitely available to single women in the USA in the mid to late 1960s. I, myself, was on the pill in NY and Arizona as a single girl and had no trouble whatsoever obtaining BCPs. Planned Parenthood and other clinics were making them available.
The thing about the pill though is the minute you went off it, you got preggers.........immediately!!
I dunno how effective it is but
from what I could see most of those exercises could be done just as well on an exercise ball, and its a lot cheaper too.
I DUNNO, I THINK THERE ARE GROSSER
THINGS TO DO - LIKE TYPE A WHOLE DAY OF ESLs. I THINK I'D RATHER FEED THE SNAKE!
I dunno. Why are women so....sm
Aha! See there? You opened this message all primed and ready to take up arms at some offensive characterization of the entire female gender, didn't you? Admit it! I wouldn't have gotten away with something like that for a minute, would I?
"Men" aren't selfish, sex-crazed, messy, insensitive, or irresponsible...some men (and some women) are. "Women" aren't bitchy, whiney, frigid, clucking, nitpicking, oversensitive, or insecure...some women (and some men) are.
So knock off the male-bashing. It's as ugly, offensive and, frankly, as ignorant as racial or any other form of prejudice and I'm frankly surprised that the rest of you tolerate it.
dunno - ask your md - and study trigeminal
hope you feel better soon!!!!
dunno-but I do know about seahorses and sarcasm
I dunno, in 36 years I hadn't done much ESL
before 9 months ago (unless really severe mumblo-American counts) and I've been able to pick them up fairly easily. But I've had a lot of help; lots of sample reports available (and a lot more that I've saved myself, after they've gone through QA), and QA people who are willing to jump up at a moment's notice and assist. And a QA department that understands that "miracle worker" is far, far above my pay grade. :)
So if the OP really likes MT work and is willing to climb the learning curve within a supportive system (which obviously has not been the case in the present job!) it's absolutely doable. Of course, this is a decision only the OP can make.
Having said that... there are always going to be SOME problem dictators. One of my worst is a native English speaker who is just plain lazy about putting all of the syllables into words, and even putting in all the words he probably wants. Fortunately, I work for a company that understands this very well, and they are willing to "ride" the client about "riding" the dictator in question to clean up his act. Garbage in, garbage out.
Hold the pickles.....have had it that way...yuck!

Yuck for you! What state do you live in? sm
Crowns are a lot more expensive here in Georgia, especially around the Atlanta area, going rate is $1800. Crazy isn't it?
First ever male furkid here and yuck!
I have a neutered male cat who is about 2 years old now, love him so but I wondered where the big stink was coming from and turns out it is him, his behind to go into detail. I have 2 other furkids, his brotheI and female and neither one of these are smelly. He nor his brother spray on the furniture or walls, have never seen that happen but can anyone tell me why he might be so smelly- are there glands in the rear I am totally unaware or ?? Being as he is over 20 pounds probably I will have to take him to be groomed but the question is why?? He is in good health as far as I am aware. Thanks.
Yuck - I can't stand snow
Or winter. I really don't know why I still live in the Northeast. We have a lot of snow (we had a snow day already yesterday). When it's winter I don't leave the house unless it is absolutely, positively necessary.
I just said yuck to the cranberry dressing
Don't understand why you read more into yuck! Unbelievable!
Oh yuck! LOL. -just lost my appetite.

YUCK. Irresponsible to the WORLD. nm

Never, ever wear PJs to work in, yuck!
Always shower before starting, clean clothes every day, the deodorant, freshly brushed teeth, sometimes lightener under my eyes (tend to have dark circles). My favorite pants are stretchy black jeans by Gloria Vanderbilt, they fit me to a T and wear those in capris in summer and the long jeans in winter. I try to change up my blouses because I tend to get bored with the same. My footwear mostly sandals all year around, Memphisto or Bergies, thongs but i have to transcript with the right sandal off, of course.
"Not right now My Love?" barf - yuck - e-e-e-w-w
