I haven't had a solid night sleep in YEARS. I wind up taking Tylenol PM here and there when my insomnia gets really bad but I'd be curious to see if it would help--price seems right anyway! My problem is I can't get my head to turn off...the voices...all the damn voices.

Well, sorry but it's been the most interesting
and humorous thread on this board in a long time! lol
That is interesting! (sm)
My son and his girlfriend (early 20s)wizzed through it in a day.
My daughter, who just turned 20, wants to savor it, just like you. She is so sentimental because having just turned 20 and with this being the end of the HP series, she feels it is the end of an era of sorts. I believe she began reading HP in her first teen year, so this book was with her throughout all her teen years.
The other 2 are chomping at the bit to talk to her about it, but she's just taking her time...
Hope you enjoy it! I don't read HP, but maybe when I retire, I'll take it up :-)
Wow, that's interesting
and something I never knew. My husband works at a car dealership and we lease very three years. I love getting a new car every three years. I'm due another one in December. On the other hand he has an older car that I'm sure we'll keep for sometime so we don't have another car payment.
interesting you should say that
My sister did this also when she was younger and she has such guilt from it. Years later when she found out she was pregnant, she had a lot of emotional issues; all related to the abortion. I think she feels deep down she was not deserving because of the choice she made so many years before; very sad to watch someone you love go through.
That is SO interesting.
I was born/raised in Miami-Dade. I moved when my son was entering HS and my daugher the 4th grade, a little over 10 years ago.
I left because of the educational system and because I couldn't afford to buy a house there.
When I read in your post that your kids did FINE, I thought to myself, that's because you are probably an awesome parent and your kids are probably pretty good by nature as well.
I'm sure mine could have gotten through it, but I would have been a basket case (single parent).
I moved a couple hundred miles north of Miami, then about 4 years later to a small town in N FL when my daughter was to enter HS, again for educational reasons. Not because the educational system was great, but because of the small town atmosphere, etc.
She did so well and she didn't get lost in the shuffle, although I doubt she would anywhere (very headstrong, vivacious, outgoig and involved). Anyhow, she's about to enter her 3rd year of college with a 3.8. Needless to say, I'm pround. I feel I was a good parent, but I give her most of the credit for just being a hardworker and good kid by nature (God gets the credit for the good by nature part, me thinks!).
I guess I digressed.... Just wanted to say, way to hang in there and congrats on raising kids in Miami LOL. I know it is possible to succeed in the face of a poor educational system, but I do believe it is harder and a challenge. I really don't think all the blame should be put on the educational system, though, because from what I saw when my kids went to school there, there was a problem with parent involvement, participation, or even knowing their kids existed. It started to become the school's responsibility to do everything basically for some of the kids and discipline was more of a concern than education. Which is why I left. My son had a class where 10% was teaching and the rest was the teacher yelling at the students.
And no, there was no spanking there. It was the small-town school that did the whoopins.
Again kudos for getting through it!
I don't get what's interesting or different about that. nm

Not at all interesting...
I am so sorry about Gloria but yes, it hurts when someone you love will not accept you. I am taking a chance here but I really do not care. I came out to my mom at 19 as she had gay friends. Her reaction was to drag me from psychiatrist to psychiatrist but in 1975 it was taken off the "mental, deviation" DSM. Even when I lived with someone for 13 years she did not acknowledge it - we were just roommates. She will never accept it and I respect that. We have a great relationship otherwise but its sad to think that she would rather see me alone and unhappy than to be gay. I am grateful though that all my other family members and friends accept me for who I am. It just saddens me that people cannot accept other people for who they love.
Very interesting
What a great way to think about our history. I wish I had your teachers. Mine made it so uninteresting. I struggled through both grammar and high school and barely passed. However my older sister had the same teachers I did and she excelled at it, so I have to admit that it probably wasn't the teachers but me. Just watching the series really makes you thankful for all our founding fathers did and all they risked. Your so lucky to live in Philadelphia. I would love to live back in that area. I grew up in Connecticut so we learned a lot about colonial days and what it was like. Plus my mom taught us all the skills they used to do (quilting, candle making, canning, etc) in colonial days. She told us if we ever get to a point where we don't have the modern conveniences of electricity or heat or cooking on an electric stove we're going to have to know how to survive. I now live in Oregon and I sure do miss the east coast. I think as I'm reading about history now I will think about your comments about putting things in perspective. My DH says that too. I am definitely getting David McCullough's book now and looking forward to the read.
It will be interesting to see what the
investigation reveals. As of yet, they have not found the supposed girl who called in, so we have no idea what is true and what is not true. We have no idea if teenage girls are married to adult men. The point of the investigation is to discover whether that is true. Personally, I think it is best to wait before making a judgment about that. We all know the media is far from accurate these days.
Interesting...
I would like to know more about your gift. When did you discover you had this gift. How does it manifest itself exactly? Do you have dreams foreseeing future things.
I have a friend who has episodes far and between. And she has dreamed different friends of hers were pregnant and she would find out later that they were and she has had other dreams more real dreams of things that made no sense but then later something would happen that was from the dream. Very weird. She was totally freaked out. It happened a lot while she was pregnant. But then after she had her baby it hasn't happened anymore.
Wow, that's really interesting! sm
i have one bassett that is scared of fireworks and i have another bassett very scared of thunderstorms. he gets so scared and shakes, his teeth will actually chatter. i feel so bad for him. i'm going to try the peppermint oil. thanks for the information!!!
That's interesting
I've never heard that done. I'm happy it's on a Friday night. That means no rushing around trying to get my youngest home and ready for bed so she can go to school in the morning.
Interesting, thanks.....nm

most interesting job
was working as a computer trainer. We were contracted to the National Park Service so I would travel around to various national parks and teach the staff. The best time was when I went to Ellis Island. It was under renovation at the time, but they put a hard hat on me and gave me a private tour. I got to go into the holding cells and see the messages written on the walls in all kinds of languages.
The worst job because it was so boring was when I worked for the Wall Street Journal as an advertising secretary and there was nothing to do but answer the phone a couple times a day and type a letter or two a week. I started going to night school and would do my homework all day at work. Boy, would I love a job like that now!
This is all very interesting...
I just moved from near Seattle--across the sound, and I thought that I hated it there. Went to Mississippi and was very very hot for a couple of months and now I am in Nebraska where it is very very very very cold!!! Tell you what--Seattle looks better and better every day!!!
You have said something interesting
I had not heard of the cleaning situation at all and probably my DH has not either. Like backwards typist said, the convenience thing is something I desire. I hate to waste water and from 1 end of the house to where the water heater is some distance. I will certainly tell hubs about this and thanks for the information as something had not heard.
Thanks, that's interesting
I didn't know about the yogurt. I'll have to pass that information on to him. Well...there are sometimes maybe when I might want to give him a pop in the nose. LOL. No bashing here.
An interesting example of AI

Isn't it interesting they say it may fizzle out and emerge stronger in the fall...when they've said the vaccine they're developing should be ready in September?
I think it's just going to fizzle out PERIOD but the pharmaceutical companies want to get their big money windfall from people's fears.
Interesting!
I will have to put Alka-Seltzer in my list of tricks for this. How did you think (or hear) of that?
I know the acid thing is not supposed to cure it (but only help prevent it), but I swear lemonade cured mine once.
Yes, he IS quite interesting...
... that photo shows up as greater than life-sized, at least on my monitor... In real life, he's... oh, maybe 5 inches long without his tail. And you might not guess by looking at the picture... but everything on him, head crests and all, is SOFT. The only hard things are the claws (which are too tiny to dig in) and his teeth (he's gotten sassy and tried to take a chunk out of my finger a couple of times).
Interesting article...

I find it very interesting that
one small comment about something can offend people so quickly!
VERY interesting! I had an older get get the same - sm
symptoms you describe after a minor procedure under anesthesia (teeth-cleaning). She wobbled around for 2 days, then I took her back. She was very dehydrated, so they gave her a shot of water under the skin. Don't know if that's what helped her, but by the next day she was better, and the day after that she was fine.
This is very interesting on this topic

It's interesting how some presume to know
everything about soneone and their family just by heresay (the media).
Maybe she is a terrible person and her husband is Father Of The Year and it's your right to state you opinion, but you don't know her or her husband at all. The media, especially the entertainment media, is not always a reliable source of correct information.
SIL, not so strange but interesting.
His name is Craig and his twin is Cliff. Creative mom, huh!
Wow, it's interesting to see the different prices sm
Thanks for sharing your info on the hair cuts. I'm from Missouri and they are running on an average of $20 for wash, cut and dry. I never really knew if I was tipping enough or not.
I don't think Ryan is an interesting
host at all. The show spends too much time on babble. I don't know what I'd do without DVR to speed through all the drivel.
They should have gotten Tom Bergeron.
Interesting question!
I have really lightened up over the years. My political views are way more liberal than say 5-10 years ago. Home decorating has made a complete turn from that cutsie country stuff to a bit more upscale bohemian look.
And my clothing styles have made a big change. I guess along with my political views, my wardrobe has become less stuffy too. My clothing style is more fun than it was when I was younger and I regret missing out on the "fun stuff" when my body was in better shape!!
Here is an interesting site

My DD loves hers. Interesting. nm

Sounds interesting..but I would ask your SIL since she already has one for her son..
she probably knows more details about it
Sounds interesting
Would you like to share your recipe?
Very interesting. thanks so much for that info!!

Interesting. My mom used Vicks on us for everything.
The joke was that Mom thought Vicks VapoRub could cure cancer! I remember her rubbing my chest with it in great gooey gobs all over my chest which made my pajama top stick to me. She also had a special humidifier, which was a huge glass jar with some sort of heater attachment on the top. Steam rose up from the jar and passed over a little reservoir of Vicks. The result was something akin to a Vicks potpourri. But that contraption got really hot, and I remember getting scald burns from it when I got too close. Ahhh, the good old days! :)
interesting question. but how often
do you KNOW if a woman has had an abortion? Personally, i treat all people with at least a civil respect, unless they themselves give me reason not to. For example, as much as i abhor those that molest children, we have a couple of them living close by and i still speak to them kindly when the situation presents itself. As a Christian, i try to treat all people with a Christian love.
I find it interesting that noone...
seems to mind the laws disallowing polygamy, but get all upset if a law passes that disallows homosexual marriage. Why is it okay to force values on one set of people and not the other? Personally, I find them both offensive, but just thought that many who say that gays should be able to marry whomever they want, do not believe that consensual polygamist marriages are okay. I would think that by this way of thinking, anyone could marry whomever and however many people they choose as long as it doesn't affect you personally. Actually, making such marriages legal would at least cut down on the Welfare fraud, which is the problem I have with polygamy.
Here's an interesting article to read.....

“My faith is built not on what I’ve done but what He’s done for me”.
Just found this site...looks interesting

Free is good, and it looks like there's pretty good support.
I could stand to lose some weight, myself. I think I'll be joining soon. :-)
Interesting front garden
Interesting use of wooly thyme.
That's interesting. I wonder if you have a wheat allergy
as well as being sensitive to milk products.
Interesting. I have always sad that sadly it is the bible itself
that prompts some people to become atheists because some of it is downright scary.
It has often been said that when it comes to the Bible most devout Christians boldly declare their belief in the "infallible word of God", demanding that every single word be taken literally, without exception.
But when it comes to the awkward verses including the cruel and unusual punishment ordered by God and Jesus, slaying of innocent animals and children, etc., the extreme testing of one's faith, clearly they tend to ignore them or interpret them VERY differently.
Funny, isn't it?
The Burning Man website is even more interesting - sm
reading. I'm addicted to the photo gallery, and there are all sorts of articles on "how to survive Burning Man", (lots of which is how to camp in a hostile desert climate & environment, and still leave no trace when you leave, etc.) My friends are there right now.... can't wait to hear how it was once they get back (and of course to read about it on the B.Man website.
(Type in "burning man" on Google, and look for their official website.) Not being that big a fan of camping or the desert, I myself am looking forward to San Francisco's "mini" Burning Man event, the Decompression festival held in the city on Indiana St. in October. A nice taste of all the fun, fire, music, art cars and general craziness, without the sand or the long drive! ;)
My, my..what interesting info on the Internet.
Just on a whim, I googled my ex's name (which also happens to be our son's name). Lo and behold, something popped up which had me giggling like mad - my son's name and his long-time girlfriend & mother of his son - under marriage licenses. They had gotten married on his birthday about 6-7 weeks ago, and never told me!
LinK- I think this season is going to be interesting (sm)
as much as I like Christian, he is making it very hard to do; he does such crappy things. I wonder if Carly is going to be a regular. Have you heard anything?
Interesting update plus thanks for all your input!
So, guess what. There was something the counselor was angry about, and the principal called my husband and apologized for her behavior. They wanted my children to stay in the school until the FCAT was over. This is the score which rates a school A to F for the state. The school we were at then was C. But my 2 sons and 1 daughter all scored top of the school. The principal said the counselor was defensive because she was upset we were leaving and she asked my husband if they could just stay until after the reading test next week and the FCAT next month.
He could not believe how transparent this all was, and how I got in the middle. Well, the kids had a good day, saying good bye to friends.
Today we enrolled in the school by our house we originally had lived in and just about everyone we saw including the principal had hugs for all of us. As I escorted each child to meet the teacher in their rooms, many children shouted out to my kids they missed them. All 3 kids had tears in their eyes they were back. What surprised me was a bunch of the little ones were yelling for me, because I was room mom in kindergarten and first grade and I cannot believe they even remembered me.
Finally, the counselor at this school (an A school) told me in the hallway as an aside when they contacted the other school, the expressed an interest in keeping my children until after the test. Well, this new counselor just laughed and said we by law go where we are zoned and this is where they should be. BTW: It is an A school.
Finally, the counselor who escorted us to the classroom wanted me to help with the spring play as she said they all missed me being their "right hand gal" from the old days.
See, you never know why people get angry or pick on people. Sometimes as in this case it had something to do with the counselor losing us and the principal wanting us to stay for the grades.
And by the way, I have the utmost confidence in my colleagues in the MT world which is why I share these things with you. Not because I am immature or afraid of dealing it with myself. I already had dealt with the situation before I came here. I just think it is nice to chat and be supported by a group of people who you respect in your profession. And you did not let me down. Thanks for every different point of view, and thanks for reading this long post again. I just had to give you an update. Moral of the story: You never know what is going on in people's agendas AND what goes around comes around. So true!
Well that's certainly an interesting combo. I might try that tomorrow.
My homemade recipe calls for instant coffee, creamer, dry milk, sugar, and a tsp of vanilla, which was okay. I saw the ingredients on Amazon.com and those were the ingredients except instead of vanilla it was cocoa powder, so I made another batch mixed with the first batch and put in 2 tsp of cocoa instead of the vanilla and it turned out really good. Have to make more already. I wish I could send you some of your CCDDP. 
That's an interesting form of punishment
Something I might try the next time. I agree that 4 hours was a little a harsh, which is why I gave in after about 30 minutes. I will say that he was pretty good the rest of the day. He had 1 time when he started to rough-house with his brother and it ended pretty quickly when I reminded him that he could sit on the chair again, this time until his dad comes home. He quit pretty abruptly.
Thanks for your input.
