My age? 39 and holding... Nah, really
will be 66 this spring, ahh, a spring chicken. My arm lift did not turn out good, unlike everything else I was very pleased with. I probably did not do enough research on this, kept asking doctor for before and after pictures, never saw those and I just took my chances and there was virtually no change. I have heard where a physician can lift the arms from under the armpits. I loved my tummy tuck, that was great and I had 2 facelifts, might get tweaked again this year. I have had fillers around the mouth but they only last a few months and they are sorta costly. I had 1 facelift in a doctor's office under heavy sedation, really not that bad and probably with my age do not want any general anesthesia with just electives. I think most older women look lots better with some coverage on their arms. I am trying to think of 1 that I think looks pretty okay, can you name 1 you think looks alright? The scars are on underneath the arms but having BP taken is really bad, arms sensitive.
Unless he was holding one of the ....
guns with a pirate in his sites, the SEALs get all the credit in my book.
Getting over holding onto your stuff sm
It is hard to part with things but sometimes (depending on where you live) you can "buy" a table at a craft show/bazaar, etc. Check the price - they go from $10 to $500 around here for a spot. Just check to see if you can go under their license and sales tax # and just "sell". Once you sell the first piece, it will give you an incentive to sell more. Also, if you trust E-bay, some people will buy anything on there. I don't know how to trust -- my problem, don't want to be flim-flammed. My sons both had bad experiences on there. My sister buys and sells all the time. She also sells the beads right off her neck if someone admires them. It's all a matter of passion in your belly, opportunity and researching how to do it. At some of these craft fairs you can "barter" with others, i.e., they may like a Halloween craft and you may like a Christmas ornament, so you "barter" and exchange. After you make your first dollar, you'll be ready to get into it. My sister does very well. I am the shy one. Perhaps that's why I chose transcription, I am a listener. Hope others can help you out with ideas.
Person holding POA changes it, but - sm
my mother is in ALF now with dementia and my sister has POA for everything with my mother. If your GF was having problems with dementia, I am not surprised he did not pursue changing the benefits; that would not usually be handled by an attorney unless the attorney had power of attorney to provide that service. It seems that should have been handled by your aunt.
I can't imagine changing the beneficiary on anything now that your GF has passed. Is that legal? I'm not a lawyer so I don't know. It sounds as though you and your brother need to see one who can give you advice. Morally, it would be your aunt's responsibility to handle your GF's affairs in the way he wanted it handled. Unfortunately after a death, intent carries no weight and events can get ugly.
Now that my mom has dementia and my sister is not handling things the way my mom would want, my only option is to take her to court which is something I have no money to do. I have to turn the other cheek and focus on my mother's wellbeing instead.
I think she's holding her composure really well considering
he's been cheating on her with a younger woman for months, leaving her home to tend to the children while he spends weekends and sometimes weeks away. She's stronger than I am....
Otters holding hands
Go to YouTube.com and key in otters holding hands, and you will see the most adorable video of these guys! They are actually holding hands, and when they break apart, they get back together, one reaching out to the other to get his hand! The video is amazing!
Yes, holding it at a young age is really easy-
but as you age the problem of incontinence rears its ugly head. As a young woman, no problem but now, well lets just say I have an appt with the urologist for this Friday.
Talk about holding a grudge
Years ago when my son was younger he was hurt in an accident and received about $7,000. I had to use the money raising him at that time but the other day (years later now) I offered to pay back what I feel I owe him and he said no. I have not seen nor spoken to him since 2004- over money my father left me- but my daughter called him and made the offer. She was very upset- me, hey that is what we call cutting off your nose to spite your face. No problem here if he did not want to accept. I offered, he refused.
Thanks, Wannie! nm

I don't know why Amy is attacking you - I don't see how anyone could feel bad about a working person with kids taking food stamps - I also wondered who was taking care of Amy's kids since she was always working. . I would much rather see a working person get help than an able bodied person who doesn't try.
EXACTLY Wannie!-I couldn't have said it better
I agree with you Wannie!
If you didn't need it on the 24th, then just wait til the 26th. As for emergencies, you should always have a back up plan. I live in the country, I do this ALL the time! I can't run to the store everytime something doesn't work right!! Sorry your husband may have to work on Christmas Day.
I agree with you, Wannie
No way would I be involved with my family if they tried to exclude my husband. He and I are one, our family is our first priority. The OP's husband should stand up for his wife above all else. She should be his first priority.
Wannie, very good point! lol

Wannie, is there such a thing as sweet
cheese? Might have to try that out. My hubby says he is getting home late so instead of him cooking, I am out to get a pizza. Getting those olives and pepperoni for me, yum!
Congratulations to your husband Wannie
It's wonderful that he's been sober for six months. Good luck to him.
Wonderful news Wannie
Congrats to your husband and to you too for sticking it out with him. I'm sure it wasn't easy. I actually don't drink and never have. People think that's strange, but I never felt the need and I just never liked it.
Wannie, they are probably sitting on their fat behinds
right now not offering much to society, as much as they would like to think they are special. They can look down their noses at those who have had to ask for assistance and say what they will because they have sad, pitiful lives and only feel superior lambasting others (I guarantee one of them is looking up the word lambasting right now?). Be prepared for some snappy, snarky comment from one of them. They are unhappy with themselves which is why they must degrade others. You have done nothing to warrant their scorn.
I agree. From the poster below with opinion different than Wannie.
