'unconfirmed' awaiting the actual CDC results apparently, in our small town and town next to us. VERY SCARY. Even if it's not as deadly as they thought, it's still a bad one & we don't want it! Awful...

Just meant I did not have hundreds now to go out and buy a dog -
I know there will be upkeep costs - just that my income has changed drastically since the time before when I was able to plop down $700 upfront for a cute little pomeranian or $500 for that cutsie little Shih Tzu -
I just want a dog - just wanted some advice on the best kind for apartment living that would not be too expensive upfront to get at this point.
There's talk of it going into the hundreds of thousands
even millions...they aren't really sure. Our cats ate some of those foods but not on a regular basis. They regularly eat Whiskas and Friskies...I am waiting to hear about those next.
Alice, I wish your kitty luck in getting well.
Yes and so are hundreds of thousands of people.

Yes - I've made hundreds of candles
and have used tons of scrap wax - not from glass jars but believe that could be done. My recommendation for doing this: Use double boiler - pot of water, large coffee can filled with water and your candle jar clothes-pinned to side of coffee can or other large can.... water in inner can will eventually melt jar wax and then you will need to very carefully pour jarred wax to another container. Be sure the inner coffee can filled with water has enough water in it to come up to the level of at least half of jar candle - does that make sense? Jarred candle needs to sit down inside water to melt.... You can do just the jar inside a pot of water on the stove but the inner can just gives you another layer for safety... good luck!
In too many cases, that would just perpetuate
My father felt that way about Jews. Thank goodness they taught us about the Holocaust in school, so I grew up knowing better than he did.
Yes - I saw one here who helps with police cases
and she was very accurate. I do believe some people have this gift. If you think about it, shows like Medium and Heroes are becoming more and more popular and I think people are opening up to the fact that this is real. I love John Edward too but he's booked for the next trillion years!
Wow. I hate to tell you this but I know of 2 specific cases sm
just like yours where the girls ended up dead. Not enough love in the world could have saved them. Yes, their moms are devastated. It is a tragic, tragic thing. Here's what you need to know. Once you've done all that you could possibly do for this young woman, you need to take a step back and let the "eaglet fall out of its nest." She's homeless? Oh well - she can get a job. She totatled her car (which, by the way, is the way one of the girls died I told you about - was on meth and then crashed). You can't get her another weapon (in this case, another car).
These are just some of the things you can't do for her. What you can do for her is to pray, to get others to pray, to show her unconditional love but that unconditional love is not getting, buying, being manipulated. Do not, let me say this again, do not blame yourself for her mistakes. There are many, many responsible 19 year olds who didn't even have parents growing up. You can survive this. Do you attend a good, spirit-filled church? If not, you need one. You need to focus on something bigger than youself (God). You need to find a passion and a purpose for your life, both of which comes from a relationship with God.
In my own life I've suffered the loss of a son, a marriage, deaths of family members, betrayal of the worst kind, financial distaster, hatred, you name it, I've been through it. For most of this I didn't know God. Then later in life I found God. Thankfully. He's given me a peace in my situation about certain family members that can only come from Him. When I surround myself with other living Christians I find there is a reason to live - not to mention my other 2 kids and new husband.
You absolutely cannot live your life worried, stressed, blaming yourself for her problems. You just can't. Because if you do then that's 2 people suffering. Be strong. Walk away. Just walk away. One step at a time. Walk away.
Rare cases - pregnancy attached to outside

There is free legal assistance for cases like this (sm)
Look up Legal Aid for your area - if I find a link I will post it for you. I think you need to report what your son has told you to someone!!! Who ordered the visitation? Get in touch with that office and start from there finding out who to report it to.
2 kids, 2 shots, 2 cases of mild chickenpox
It certainly didn't prevent it for my kids, but they both had very mild cases. My poor daughter had it on Christmas and had to spend the entire with her mom because she was contagious.
In most cases it's ruder to expose people to a squalling infant.
