Did you try Replacements Limited to search for your pattern pieces? Or even an eBay search? ..sm
Replacements Limited has been very helpful to me in the past. If you're determined to paint your own, go into Michael's and check through all their paints for those made especially for glass and ceramics. You'll end up having to hand wash and dry your item since the paint can't be fired on, but it should work, even if you have to keep touching it up as the years go buy. But do a search first and maybe you'll get lucky that way! :)

insurance scam
this girl is looking for more than just medical expenses, trust me. Same thing, went to hospital and had x-rays, nothing wrong, then all of the sudden, couldn't hardly walk. How do I go about this with absolutely no one knowing it's me who is turning her in?
Insurance Scam
Usually, I am the type of person to pretty much tell you what's on my mind, but hubby doesn't really want me to say anything to her because he is good friends with her hubby and figures if I upset her, then he has to stand by her and that'll end their relationship. With me, it's what you see is what you get and I tell it like it is, maybe that's why this is bothering me so much. I always mind my own business too, but for some reason this is just bothering me more than I should allow. I am fearful of her even coming to our home, falling and getting hurt, then suing us; or even having her in my vehicles now because of what I am seeing - a woman I thought I knew but now see this dark side. She is figuring on going to court if they don't give her what she/lawyer wants and I already told her "not to count on me to testify in her behalf" because I totally am in disagreement with what she is doing". She said nothing to that comment. Hubby figures no way she'll get what she is expecting due to no surgery and it's just a strain, but I have seen people fall in sh__ and come out smelling like a rose, and she is one of them. I agree with other poster, she has turned in all claims to private insurance so maybe they'll check into that. They already asked to access past medical records and lawyer said no, that it has nothing to do with this, but that was early on right after accident. I am not afraid to say something to her, I am just not sure if I should, especially since my hubby really doesn't want me to. He cannot even stand her anymore and they used to be fairly close and tease each other as being bf and gf; that's how close we were. Also, secretary is my neighbor - go figure. We just leave that subject alone when together. I don't know what I am going to do, if anything, and I think you are right, I just need to address this issue directly with her because it's not in my nature to talk behind someone's back like this. I only have 1 face and do not particularly like myself for talking about her like this, though until now, I have only talked about it with my hubby. Thanks for all your advice.

Insurance scam by own friend
I am just looking for a few opinions on how I deal with my own friend, in my opinion, scamming an insurance company from an accident for an outrageous amount of money to pay their bills because of some serious debts. She has a past history of suing others for minor accidents; I found this out later on. Now, she is claiming not able to perform sex with hubby in order to get even more money. Right after the accident, she was fine and then decided (maybe she's for real, though I have seen differently) that she is in severe pain. No one else in that vehicle was hurt, even those seriously tossed from side-to-side. I cannot say too much because I don't want her to figure out it's me typing this. Now, my dilemma is I want so bad to bring this to light and do the right thing because now, I cannot even hardly look at her since I have come to realize she is not who I thought she was. I personally know the insurance person and secretary both, though don't want them to know who I am if I were to call and say, "don't be stupid, don't settle, check past medical history". Dr. says degeneration of spine is not from accident, but chiro states it has worsened since 2 years ago. I have seen her mow grass with a push mower, do outdoor activities and so on, but when it came to working, couldn't do that for quite some time due to pain. How do you do outdoor sporting activities, but you cannot sit at your desk at work. She is a complete and total fraud looking for money....We doubt she'll get what attorney is asking for, but we are best friends with her hubby and with that said, do I leave this alone or somehow bring it out. It totally disgusts me. She is fine until people are around and then she starts gimping and grimacing like she's in really severe pain. I just don't know. I think about this every single day and it is hard for me not to type or say something to open some eyes to this fact. She is just lucky she hasn't been on video by an adjuster. 
LOL, so true. Sylvia is such a scam; check this out.

Heard several weeks ago about bank scam
My husband received email the other day from Bank of America asking him to update his files, which of course includes social and the like. We had heard and funny because he does not even have an account there. I also received a call from a person who said she represented BOA wanting to know how I was enjoying my acct. Told them working, no time to talk.
Sounds like a scam. Crap like that costs the rest of us
Ridiculous.
It's all a scam. All you need is a good, firm toothbrush - brush at least sm
for 2 minutes AND you have to floss every day if not almost every single day. Also, what keeps your mouth very clean are those whitening strips! Because it is loaded with peroxide, it actually keeps your gums and gumlines from developing bacteria that causes gingivitis.
I used to get canker sores and sores in my mouth ALL THE TIME. After I started whitening my teeth regularly I haven't had a sore since. I bit the side of my cheek the other week and NOTHING surfaced from it. For years and years every time I would bite my lip or cheek it would develop into a nasty sore. I thank those Crest White Strips for keeping my mouth clean!
Lots and lots of SKATING ! - sm
Mostly inline street skating, up & down hills, too. Some roller skating and roller-disco. I was doing ice-skating, but can't afford it anymore, plus I prefer to skate outdoors. It works all muscles, is low-impact, fairly quick to learn compared to other sports, like skiing, is a cheap sport, and excellent for keeping balance & reflexes sharp. Most of the people I skate with look & act 10-20 years younger than their chronological ages.
I MAKE the time to skate. I eat my lunch at my desk, but take a break in the late afternoon before it gets dark, to exercise. This can also include a walk or jog around the neighborhood, bike ride into town to go to the market (cheaper than driving), a fast inline skate around town, or dance practice on a local tennis court. Then I work into the evening for as long as it takes to finish up.

What is your pattern name on back? I bought a magnolia pattern several years ago, actually paied $72 for an 8 piece setting from ABC Distributing. Gold trim with wine and hunter green stripe on outside with pinecones, magnolias and Berries, Magnolia pattern from Tienshan China. Curious if it is same set. Later I meb my best friend of 10 years now. We are so much alike and were stunned to know that we had the same set of china. Identical pattern. The only difference was that hers had a gold, wine and then deep blue band where mine was green. Hers also cost several hundred dollars and was a Savannah pattern or something of the like. What if you got a solid color gravey boat other than white, to match the set and maybe trimmed it with gold. Would still like to know that pattern.
I just did a quick search and everything I read--sm

Can you get a copy of the lab results? A search is..sm
showing that quite a few bugs can cause those rare infections including E. coli 0157:H7, the Listeria family (listeriosis), Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella typhimunium, and the funguses from the mycoses family, but you said this was a bacteria, just to name a few. And there's always MRSA and MRSE, too. Ask the doc for a definitive diagnosis so you can be more informed, and my prayers are with you and your family. nm
Good Search engine
Hi Folks,
I am wonderng how many MTs know about the search engine Good Search. This is a search engine like Google but it is really neat because for every search 1 penny is donated to the not-for-profit group of your choice. You can pick out the group you would like your donations to go through by clicking on the letter of the alphabet and searching for your charity.
Of course I hope you will choose the group I volunteer with which is Pet Rescue By Judy, http://www.petrescuebyjudy.com
At any rate, this is a wonderful way for MTs to donate money to charity without any real effort on our parts and since there are so many of us we really have a great opportunity to help these groups. You can still use your other search engines but any clicks for charity over on GoodSearch will help! You can also use it when you do online shopping, say for instance on eBay. If you go to GoodSearch and just click on the shopping icon and then on eBay, you can shop as usual but a percentage will be paid to the charity of your choice and it does not cost you anything. They have many places participating in their shopping program.
Thanks for considering this

College search - For those of you who have had experience -
In your opinion, is it more fruitful to go on an open house when all the departments are out there with handouts and such, or on individual or small group appointments with maybe a little more one-on-one?
I'm overwhelmed already, and we've only been to two colleges!
I just did a very quick google search and...sm
several people said scrubbing nail polish remover worked for them (not for others). Unfortunately, you seem to have quite a mess to deal with. IF it does work, maybe you could get the girl to come back and help clean it up? A good chance to teach the girl that inappropriate behaviors bring consequences, a lesson she does not seem to be learning from her parents. Good luck with that carpet.
Good luck in your search...
Also remember, anything that says is is like 10k gold--especially white gold--also has nickel. Be very careful with your skin!
I am one of those people who belongs in a bubble almost literally.
search for *open-ended* MRI places
Open-ended MRI imaging centers is what you need to look for. We have plenty here where I live (Florida)...but MANY people cannot stand the long narrow tube to lay in for hour(s)....just like me! So, keep on searching for open-ended MRI centers!! *S*

If you love him, there is no reason to search for something that may not exist.
I never got that feeling either about the man I married 17 years ago and had two kids with, and I'm glad I have been with him instead of searching for something else.

Me, too. I need lots of help.
I've got 1 room that turned into a storage room and every week I tell myself I have to get in there and straighten it out. I open the door, look around and close the door, and find something else to do.
I don't have any closets in my house and it drives me nuts. No place to hang coats, etc. when coming in from outside. They get slung over the chair that nobody sits in by the door.
We have 2 sheds and a 1 car 'tent' garage. Hubby keeps half his stuff in the tent garage and shed, I keep some of my stuff in the shed and mom's stuff is in the other shed. The first shed was built when we were moving from the old house, needed some place to go with it until we got in the new place, but it's still there!!!! I can't get to it because of hubby's snow blower and other quipment. I probably have some antiques in there by now. 
Mom died 7 years ago and I still haven't looked to see what's in her shed. I just don't have time.
I love to be organized, but when I organized my home the last time, I couldn't find anything!!!
This is nothing new. Lots cannot get
an apartment because of bad credit, same for jobs as has been discussed before on this board. If you cannot handle credit, people think you cannot handle a job. You might have to go back a few years to see who the bozo person is because just did not happen lately.
I have lots more to worry about as well - sm
I have a 6-y/o daughter that is only 1 year out from her chemo for kidney cancer and has been having some worrying symptoms lately, I have bills, I have lots of home strife to deal with , I have a DH who acts younger than my kids half of the time and cannot deal with any major problems and has undiagnosed depression and possibly bi-polar. I carry a heavy load here so you are not the only one in this world with problems. OH, I am in the USA too, so what does that have to do with anything? The coat just angered me beyond belief, maybe it is the straw that broke my back, my way of venting, who knows, but it something I can at least try to take some action on and maybe get it back. I cannot control my daughter's cancer recovery, all I can do is watch and wait and see if we make it to 5 years recovery without any recurrence, for the bills I am trying to work harder and make more money, for my DH I just deal with him the best I can and do pretty well but not all the time. So I have trival things and big things to worry about and deal with, along with millions of others. Sorry if my kid's coat loss/theft was such a mundane topic to post about but I am/was T'eed off about it and needed to vent and get opinions if I could on this. Yours is duly noted.
Lots of recipes at
foodtv.com Everything you ever wanted.
lots of days like that!
if I can I make a quick run to the coffee shop for a latte or take a 5 minute walk. its amazing what a lift a cappuccino or a latte will bring to my day.
Lots of questions
1. How old is the first house? The one with the sewing room and the carpet coming up?
2. How many sq ft is the second house - the newer one?
3. Have the rest of the houses in your neighborhood appreciated 66% in the last five years? (from $75,000 to $125,000)
Your husband has a good idea about putting the money in savings for six months to make sure you can afford to pay a mortgage that is twice what you are paying now. And after six months, you will have $1800 more to put down on the house.
This is strictly personal experience - but last summer we moved from a 25-year-old house to a brand new one. We lived in the 25yo house for 12 years, and the money we spent remodeling and updating (+ original price) it would have bought us a brand new house of the same size. So I would say go for the newer house if it comes to a choice. Older houses can be a LOT of work.
OTOH, you say your husband likes woodworking. If you're willing to live in a house that is in a perpetual state of remodeling...go for it!
Transcribed lots of them, never had one sm
They usually use lidocaine, but it still sounds pretty painful. However, if your mom's doctor thinks she needs one, then I would strongly encourage her to have it done. She could take Tylenol or ibuprofen before the procedure, and if she has Xanax or Valium, she could take one (or her doctor could prescribe one for her). There are several diagnostic imaging tests that they encourage patients to take pain relievers and/or tranquilizers ahead of time. It can really help.
