I'v always been language-challenged
:) but that's good to know and think about!
this should be challenged in court
This is NOT a communicable disease and should NOT be mandatory. What about possible side effects, what about 20 years down the line when they discover it caused a new problem. No. It is wrong to make this mandatory. This regards one's personal health decisions, for their CHILD no less. What next?
I am directionally challenged -
I consider Fleming County east - but I guess if you are in the more northern part close to Maysville that would be north. My daughter is a Pharm.D. - took a job in Maysville and hated it. I always thought that would be a great town to live in - but too small for her. Son-in-law and family are in Covington.
Ok, my big boy cat is weight challenged
I refuse to hurt his feeling and say (fat)around him so let's just keep at weight challenged. Took him to the vet today as noticed his coat was not shiny like his brothers and he was so big wanted to see if possible diabetes or thyroid and could go from there. He, his lighter-weight brother and younger half sister have all been grazers. I keep the food bowls full in the day with wet and dry food when I went to bed, treats thru the day. Well, good times are up and now vet says labs ok and wants to get him on diet. Vet has said 2x a day 1/3rd cup of food and maybe 2 little pieces of the dry food as a treat. He is 4 years old and 23 lbs. He is a BIGGGG boy. Anyone else out there who has had to put their furries on diets and how did yours turn out?
Being autistic vs. being mentally challenged
What's the difference between these two?
I am soooo decorating challenged and need help. I want to put some color
on my bedrom walls, I'm thinking a light sage color. If I paint the walls the sage color, does the ceiling get painted the same or an off/white? If I paint the ceiling the same color as the walls wont the room feel much smaller and "cave" like? I have comforter with olive, sage, dark brown colors. Average size room with windows on 2 walls so there will be light coming in.
Thanks for your ideas.
Agree...and the gang mentality thing is often quick to surface when challenged. Ignore these

Keep the ball rolling...
Keep the Ball rolling-how about
favorite all time TV show. So many to choose from-Friends, Hell's Kitchen (love Chef Ramsey), 90210, CSI, Cold Case, again, just to name a few!
I sit on exercise ball .... sm
and I balance just fine with foot pedal. I dont' sit here for eight hours on my ball. Sometimes I switch out my chair and my ball. Just depends on how my bottom is feeling. I too sometimes sit with my leg folded under my other leg while working, but that's not good for your veins. I have really bad vericose veins (that's another story!)
good luck!
okay, now I get it........slow on the ball I guess

Wow! You're sure a ball of fire! nm

Okay. Guess you should look into that crystal ball you have
since you are all-seeing and all-knowing.
When you get sick, and you have to sell your house. I will listen to you.
When you have used up all the money in the bank, then I will listen to you.
By the way, do you know that Social Security was intended to be short term? Did you know that it is in danger of going bye-bye? And, oh yeah, it wasn't intended for the purposes it is being used for. How many years did you plan for exactly? My aunt had more than you mentioned and was considered ritch. Too bad she got sick the year before she died and lost it all, huh?
One episode in the hospital could wipe out everything you have saved all your life.
YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE. The more you spout, the worse things turn out. Better get that crystal ball out so you can be ready!
Tennis Ball in the rectum
Then doctors couldn't get a good enough hold on it to get it back out. Had to take him to go to the OR and have it surgically removed. Also light bulb man, except light bulb broke into hundreds of small pieces. OUCH!
Cotton Ball Game for kids - sm
When my daughter was little, we did this game where you put Vaseline on the child's nose and then they stick their nose into a bowl of cotton balls. Whoever has the most cotton balls stick to their nose wins. I am not sure if this is age appropriate, but I know she and her classmates loved it.
I've had a ball previously and just had too much trouble

Doc trying to dictate while watching a ball game. Ya sure...wish I

I'm eyeing up that carpet and that tennis ball sm
That looks like an ooooolllld carpet but in extremely good shape. Grew up with one like that many moons ago. Your dog must be kin to my 2 dogs who both sleep on their backs with all 4 paws in the air. They look so cute. Now that tennis ball looks like mine. I think your baby took it from mine as I can't find any of them..... Just joking.
Second vote for Ball Blue Book
My mom used it and now I use it. I buy a new one every time time they come out with a new edition. Haven't killed anyone yet and those beans taste awfully good this time of year!
Yep, he plays basketball, paint ball, and wrestles.
Turning on floodlites and playing ball in yard with

I've also heard about paint ball guns...
they shoot people walking or riding on the sidewalk/road. And those things HURT...what's up with the youth of today? Are they really that bored, I mean, they have sooo much more than we (most of us) did when we were growing up. Maybe that's the problem, they're spoiled...anyway, I do hope they get caught. Thank goodness for my good kids!
Bridges...makes me ball my eyes out every time!
I really don't like "girly" movies either but for some reason I have to watch this one if I stumble on it while I'm "flicking" around. I always always always wind up crying like a big baby. It's such a beautifully done film. Just a classic.
And don't throw her a ball, because if she misses and it hits her guns, they may blow!
LOL
Can you describe the scrunch you do. Do you mean pull your toes and ball up your foot or what. nm
:
I took home ec too, but did not learn about canning. The Ball Blue Book gets my vote too...
Mine gets replaced every year also because the pages are all stuck together, stained, and otherwise show signs of major use. LOL. It is my bible for anything that can be canned or frozen or otherwise preserved.
She's out of luck....sm
You only are eligible for Medicare when you reach retirement age. Not your spouse... YOU! For Social Security, she can only get it when she reaches retirement age and the amount depends on how much she worked. Since she has only worked 3 months in her life she's not going to get anything. She doesn't get a check just because her husband gets one.
If her husband happens to die the she would receive his Social Security check until she reaches retirement age, then it is cut off, and if she remarries it would stop the second she got married. If he dies she does not get Medicare just because he had it.
I'm really luck
I love my neighbor and my neighorhood. In the summer there's always at least 15 children running around playing and all the "grown-ups" are out in the front yards just talking and we always have weekend parties and picnics. I don't know what I'd do if I had some of the neighbors that the posters have.
He should consider himself luck!
We are usually at 1-2 times a week at my house. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Very much depends on what time of the month it is for me because sometimes I want it more! Guess my hormones are getting whacky? Been married 25 years. 
I wish you luck!
Its a difficult thing. I would have put up with it longer, although I also didn't know what else to try.
I had luck with 2 of them, and almost a 3
The first one loved to climb up my coat and sit on my shoulders. It took about a month to tame that one.
The second one was somewhat more feral. It took 2 months just to get him to trust us and another month to get him in the house. Every sound spooked him and he tried to jump through our glass sidelight when my husband came out of the bedroom one morning. Poor thing went and hid for part of the day. He did love being in the house, but also liked being outside to roam. I could never break either of them to not want to be outside.
The third one was quite old and we tried for over a year. He wouldn't let us get within 5 feet of him, but it was better than 100 feet. Sadly, we found him dead in the field shot by the jerk who hunts rabbits. The cat could not have been mistaken for a rabbit as he was a bright golden yellow/orange. I would have called the SPCA but we can't prove this jerk did it. We just know it because it wasn't the first time it happened.
Now we have another orange cat and a beautiful black and white long hair hanging around. The orange seems a bit more tame and we have gotten within 3 feet of him, but the black and white is too skittish. The hope of taming the orange is nil since we now have a dog that doesn't seem to like cats. I would get rid of the dog but he was DH's birthday present a few years back. LOL
Good luck to you
Sounds like you are very wise to ignore the co-workers insulting behavior and just ''keep on keepin on''. Good for you for not adding to the misery or joining in the gossip cliques! It's so hard to be in a unfriendly/hostile environment but you will prevail because you are working for something important--your family--not expensive lunches or parties. (Your post reminded me how nice to work at home.)
Will do! Good luck to you! nm

Good luck to you!
I'm sure it will look great. Be creative. They find the oddest things at junk yards, etc.
Good luck!
Sounds like you are trying to make some good positive changes in your lifestyle as well. We all wish you the best. Thanks for sharing your experiences with those of us who are curious about Alli.
Good luck to ya! :) nm

Good luck to your daughter!
How exciting and fun. Best of luck to you : )

Good luck
Back around Christmas we started our new lifestyle, no partially hydrogenated anything, no high fructose corn syrup. More veggies and organic everything that we can afford. The difference it makes is truly incredible. We have been telling everyone we know about it. Next on our list to get rid of: MSG.
I think you are going to be so impressed with how you feel in a couple of weeks, you will just not believe it.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Good luck!! What are you doing to keep from
reaching for a cigarette?
Good luck to you (sm)
I'll be praying for you and everyone over there. My son is in the Marines at Camp Pendleton and from his porch in Temecula he can see the smoke but assures me the fire is moving away from him. He's signed up on their roster to help fight the fires when they call them to. Here on the east coast we're praying for rain and we'll pray you get some too.
Good luck!
Hopefully they will drop her suspension.
Luck you! Getting to live over there for a bit!
I envy people who get to travel all over the world (or heck, even this country!) and stuff. All the sights, sounds, smells, tastes....too cool for school!
That's cool that treacle actually exists....I only ever heard it mentioned in Harry Potter before as 'treacle fudge.' Of course...who woulda ever thunk they'd make those nasty Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans either?! Booger and vomit flavored beans...that's just nasty!
Sounds like you have my luck....
It seems like I always find something that I want that is a set and cannot find the whole set! I'm sure the plates will turn up soon, especially on replacements, ltd. You may even be able to email them and get notified when they get them.
Good luck to you. (sm)
It is always nice to hear when someone finally finds relief with medication. I am sure it is very distressing to live with fibromyalgia and waiting to find something that works. Good for you. I am going to mention this to my brother, another fibromyalgia sufferer.
good luck -
double sided sticky tape - my cat pulls it off and eats it.
squirt bottle of water - of course if you will have to be watching them 24/7 - cats do not respond to behavioral conditioning like dogs do.
plastic covers for furniture - so what was the point of getting new furniture?
aluminum foil - another good look for your new furniture.
scratching posts placed strategically - and they're not smart enough to realize this game.
they make covers for claws that you can order - don't know much about them - but they stick on each individual claw somehow.
Thanks and good luck
I was in that same boat too until recently.
Good Luck!!...nm

With my luck you want me to buy a METAL SM
back scratcher? I can almost quote the time the bolt of lightening will come through the window during a storm and take me out! LOL!!! If it's all the same to you, I'll stick to the wooden variety!! 
Best of luck to your brother...sm
I am glad he is getting this checked out and that they moved the stress test up. The sooner they figure out what's going on, the sooner he can treat it and at least get that stress out of the way. Let us know how things go.
