Men may act macho, but they have feeling, too and like to feel attractive and loved.

Older folks sometimes lose it before they really lose it sm
It sounds like she having some issues with money and thought processes. Four potatoes and three sweet potatoes? She has lost touch with reality. I don't mean this in an unkind way. I think she didn't stop the think or plan the budget around this. Perhaps she has lost the ability to properly plan on some level. This makes no sense.
In my family, food at gramma's was always abundant. The woman always thought we were foot soldiers readying for a cold march across two states. The place she got miserly was with almost everything else. She'd have everyone over for a huge supper and have 2 rolls of TP in the house, one nearly gone, and there would be 10 of us. She stopped buying laundry detergent because it was "too expensive" and started using shavings of naphtha soap. She started saving little soap slivers and making "new" bars of soap with them. She stopped buying shampoo unless it was in the markdowns at the grocery store. She started using a baggie for her vacuum cleaner bag. You get the picture here.
The interesting thing is that truly, that gramma never fully lost it. We considered this idiosyncratic and went on. She kept the rest of her faculties, but had these odd ways of "saving money." My other gramma who never did any of these things did, in fact, suffer from profound dementia the last 10 years of her life. Of course, that set of grandparents had the issue the other way. Toilet paper: Bought in bulk 6 cases at a time. Find a salad dressing you like, buy a couple of cases. You never did want to tell them you liked a certain food, paper product or soap something because if you did, along would come a few cases of it!
We all do something when we get older. Help her out so she isn't embarrassed by this!
Yes, I lose
money if I don’t work so very simple for me. I just have good work ethics.
I'm sorry. It is so sad when we lose a pet.

I'm trying to lose too sm
I've tried all diets, have been successful, but once i stop doing the diet, then i gain back. Atkins, WW, Jenny Craig. Last year I did Nutrisystem, but food got expensive. Now I'm just trying to eat healthy. I can tell you that Nutrisystem food had fiber and protein in it. It's tough. I'm an emotional eater. I would love to be a part of a losing weight forum. there is a website www. weightlossbuddy.com. It's free and you can find other people that live close to you and support each other. I'd like to lose about 20 or 25. Hey monitor, didn't there used to be a diet board? If not, that'd be a good board to have.
thanks
use it or lose it
They can keep you alive a very long time these days. I would try to die with my boots on. Have you walked through a nursing home lately? Just keep shuffling along and do not stop until you keel over, or you could have a manny nurse changing your Depends.
Your probably not gonna like this but
I had/have the same problem. I finally made up my mind to exercise, so I joined the local YMCA. I couldn't believe how much better I felt. Unfortunately, I haven't gone back since before Christmas -- and guess what? -- I'm started to feel the fatigue coming back.
I live in horrible winter weather country, so walking doesn't appeal to me during winter months. It is very difficult to make up your mind and do something about it, even though ya know your going to feel better. I'll get there - Good luck
gonna get along without you now by
skeeter davis (really ooold)when I was younger. now it would more likely be This Gun for Hire!lol
of course im gonna ask!
but that's just me being nosy :)
Hope all is well and it was the right thing for everyone!

i dont even know if ill be a mom by that age!
Im not gonna lie...
those swiffer jet commercials got me.
so i have one. It works fine for regular mopping, but i haven't really had to SCRUB the floor since i bought the house so not sure... plus i have laminate wood floor not ceramic so not sure if there would be a difference...
well, i try to eat right. i need to lose some weight sm
so i do buy whole wheat stuff, bread, wraps, spaghetti. i buy low fat/fat free lunchmeats, 2% cheese. i don't buy cupcakes and cookies (or else i'd eat them!) i don't drink much milk, not that i don't like it, just don't drink it much. i drink more water than anything. i'll have about one diet dr. pepper a day. i love food, it's just trying to stay on a healthy track. my problem is i don't get enough exercise. i have a 5 y/o and an 8 y/o that keep me busy. but i do like to exercise.
But how did she lose all that weight?
She was really heavy and saw her lately in my weekly rags and so thin now.
Oh yes people will tell you you need to lose
weight. My own father was a good example of that. He tried to cut me down and made nasty remarks about my weight. Never mind the fact I saw pictures of his mother who was extremely obese. I guess he forgot about her weight. Anyone who is overweight knows that- does not have to be told- there are mirrors everywhere.
Trying to lose weight
Has anyone tried Hoodia and does it work?
Well, I DID lose 10 lbs. this summer without even trying-
That's about the only good thing that's come of all this. The rest sucks.
Sometimes you won't lose much 1 week but BAM sm
you lose a bunch the next week; sometimes it is water-weight related, other times related to your period or hormones. Some weeks I didn't lose anything, only to have a 4 lb loss the next time! Just be sure to start being active (even if it is only walking to the end of your block) and drink your water!
With depression you lose either way -- sm
depression pretty much kills sex drive, but so do antidepressants. Still, I prefer to be on the meds.
it it's gonna cause a problem to say something,
give her only a little bit of candy each day, she's 9, she'll understand why too much is bad, and if mom is already packing stuff away, then the kid isn't missing it, so donate it to a thrift shop.
did you say she is gonna be in the circus?

Guess I'm gonna have to git my gun
As I sit here in the middle of the night pecking my lil ol fingers to the bone once again something has the dogs extremely upset. This has happened twice now... dogs barking and growling and staying all upset for about an hour, then something hits the side of my house, they continue to bark and carry on nonstop for about 30 minutes after that then they finally shut up. First time it happened called my hubby, he told me to get his big shotgun and told me which shells went in it. It's still got the shells in the chamber, all I gotta do is pump it and fire. I guess if it is somebody it's gonna scare the H*** out of them and maybe they will leave me alone. Hey, who knows, might actually be some stress relief while I'm sitting here working on crap and not making anything more than peanuts! Heheheheee... maybe next time it happens it will coincide with the PMS monster.
Thanks everyone - I'm gonna try your ideas and see how it goes! (nm)

And I'm gonna applaud yours!
I agree, although I am not quite old enough to be a grandma yet, we still got spankings, but not too many because after 1 or 2, we usually learned our lesson. I spank my kids too, when they need it, just a swat on the butt usually does the trick. I also agree with the switches suggestion, better yet make HIM go pick it...good luck and God bless!
I'm gonna have to jump out on a ...
limb here and say that you don't deserve the two kids that you have since you aren't talking to one because of money and you get mad at your other child for calling you and asking if you are upset. OMG......seriously. Get your head checked!
has anyone done nutrisystem to lose weight sm.....
and was able to keep the weight off after you stopped eating their food? i'm tired of being stuck at the same weight. i was thinking of joining weight watchers. i've done that before and lost, but i had a 6 mos old baby dragging him along. now he's 5 and i'm ready to try again. but just wondered if anyone had success with nutrisystem. thanks
I lose focus after a few hours : (

you will not lose weight without exercise.

Maybe didnt lose it. It just went south.

If he is otherwise healthy, I'd lose the tail.
He'll have to adjust how he balances but otherwise I think he'd be fine.
Me too, it is so very hard to lose a pet. What a beauty.

I'm trying to lose weight through the WW program
I started during the summer and kind of fell off of it. I'm trying to lose between 30-40 pounds. My daughter became a vegetarian about 4 months ago and she already lost 23 pounds. I like my meat so I won't go that route, but I'm trying to exercise a little bit every day and eat healthier. Good luck to you and everyone else trying to lose.
so sorry, it sure hurts when you lose your babies.. nm

I really lose a lot of respect for the candidates
that talk back to the judges. I know that Simon can be very mean, but it is not like these kids don't know this. I think the singers should bite their tongue and just try to take the comments and try to improve their singing next week.
Not a good way to lose weight

Not sure what your question is? But my 401K did lose value sm
and it bothers me very much; I lost maybe 25K so it could have been worse. It forced me to diversify and take a closer look at bonds vs stocks, and other investments. Of course I would like to have more than 50K as liquidity and emergency funds, but at one time I was more than 20K in debt. This is a huge improvement in my life and a total change in mindset. It truly has created peace in my heart, to have control over what I spend and not be a tool of the consumer society that says "You are not happy unless you have the biggest, newest, brightest" thinga-mabob that we are selling this week / year / month.
You don't need to buy stuff for self-esteem. Being self sufficient lets me sleep at night.
like he's gonna actually have the time to answer the
gosh
more importantly, we watched him say he's gonna
and has done squat to find the killer.......ya know why? 2+2=4.
And yes - we were inundated on TV for 9 months with this bogus-outcomed trial.........
WHO DAT say dey gonna beat dem Saints? Who dat? Who dat? :D (sm)
Sucks I have to work tomorrow, but I will take a lunch break to see the end.
Great for you, I am gonna insist this
afternoon on just that. I read just this past week about the loss of hair and Synthroid. I am really determined this time to not take the Synthroid like he wants me to but instead getting the Armour. Except for the terrible itching I had when first diagnosed (in the late 80s) I cannot tell any difference taking or not taking the thyroid preparations, - have never been on the armour- was using levothyroxine prior to the Synthroid. Going to see this dear physician in about an hour. Thanks!
I just KNOW ur all gonna say that teaching doesn't (sm)
pay well, either. It doesn't not in most cases. But with her skills, degree & experience, she quickly got into an unusual teaching circumstance where the pay was triple what most educators make, and later she went on to train and eventually supervise other teachers.
no, she's not gonna hook up with church guy
nm
Gonna catch flak for this, but what I would do
is get a bunch of switches and light his legs up any and every time he wants to be as bad as you are saying. I probably could guarantee with the sting you are not going to have to put up with that type of behavior day after day. Of course, with people trying to be so politically correct they will say no spanking/switching/beating, etc., etc. but YOU are the one having to deal with this out of control child.
Ok, now I am gonna feel like a bad catmamma
I do not want to torture, only to clean these guys- they both have dander really bad.
She's gonna let her mommy take care of
.
Though you were gonna remind me of the plague! - sm
 . My mom always worked outside the home after I was about 5. Dad worked nights, so I was the designated cook and housekeeper. Possibly the reason I despise housework today!
Hippies never scared me, most that I met were pretty cool. What I meant was that while I thought the war was dumb, I was too young to be passionate enough to protest or anything like that. Seeing Led Zeppelin as an opening act was worth it to be as old as I am now...well maybe not, but there's nothing I can do about my age except lie about it. 
People who type loose when they mean lose. (nm)

I'm hungry! I want to eat! I'm trying to lose weight and I've been
doing pretty well, but now I'm getting at that poing where I just want to eat anything and everything. Any ideas on what I can do to curb my voracious appetite?
yeah well it's only wasting money when you lose
a deal when you could win millions. I can give up a few cups of coffee or something else rather than my lottery tickets!!
We did lose some money, but not a huge amount
We have three different ones that we've been keeping an eye on.
