You are still full of rage.

Shut up, you say? Tell it to yourself and then, see professional help. A pastor would be a good place to start. Many of them dedicate their ministries beyond the pulpit to domestic violence and abuse. For those who do not feel at home in a church, they have many resources to sliding scale social services, often some of which are free of charge.

Not road rage, but cell phone rage
Is anyone out there annoyed as much as I am with the dictators using these cell phones right where they are dictating and going off right in your ears???? Some are put so close as to interfere with the dictation equipment and thus the screech comes on. Unbearable....
Pantry full and freezer full...but will NEVER eat Spam!
//
Pantry full, 2 freezers full.
Only need to get paper products and fish. I have lots of tuna, Spam, canned chicken, sardines, corned beef hash, etc.
Got our veggie seeds last week.
Stocking up on more canned veggies and fresh veggies, mostly potatoes, as soon as I can. Potaoes last quite a while in our cold room, which is an extra bedroom with no heat. Also want to get extra bread. Love homemake bread, but DH doesn't like it for sandwiches, so I have to get store-bought bread for that. I can still buy bread at my local produce store at 2 for $1.75 and it freezes very well. In spring, it used to cost 2 for $1.25, but that's still cheaper than other places.
I'm not doing this because of what's coming. I'm doing it because I've done it for years, but usually in the fall. This fall I could only buy a few things at a time because DH not working, so I figure another month, I'll be back to normal.
WalMart Rage
I have a thought! We could sell tickets to the shopping "encounters" and make a bundle! That way, we could all afford to shop wherever we want for whatever we want when this is all over.
Actually, I don't really think this is restricted to just Christmas season - I have had some nuts "accost" me at other stores too, especially Costco, during all the seasons. The most annoying and aggresive was an old man (looked in his late 70s) who wanted my space in line and kept "ramming" my basket trying to cut into line. He had already tried it on two other people and "lost" out in another line - I had been watching him. My husband told me to let him go in front of us and suddenly a light came on in my head and I lost it. I turned around and asked him if he was crazy or just rude. Then, a man behind me told me to "comeon, just let him go" and then I REALLY lost it. I told the crazy guy to keep it up and I would call the police on him for battery. He just looked at me and looked at me. I don't know about you guys, but sometimes enough is enough. I am old now and tired and so sick of people like him. Why should I "keep the peace" at my own expense when that is exactly what most of the people like him expect? Besides, it was "empowering" to tell him to bug off. I don't look for trouble, but I don't have to be a doormat either and I don't intend to. Maybe one of those people that were taken away to the hospital were like me. Hope that doesn't happen to me too, but hey you never know. From now on I do not ever intend to be intimidated by rude mean people again. Even if they punch me! I will fight back. Guess it wouldn't hurt to make sure that I have something substantial in my basket to use just in case he is bigger than me?
Why didn't someone call security before the problem got out of control?
Where we live sometimes there is WalMart rage out in the parking lot too over spaces! Yet another reason to never go there! I guess we should shop where they have the most security to keep you safe from the other customers.
highway rage sm
I guess a guy got cut off further back on the highway by another, so the guy takes out a baseball bat, and repeatedly bangs the other guy's passenger window with the bat. No cops around, and no cell phone available; scared me to death. Don't know who had control of the baseball bat guy's wheel, but it was unbelievable. Just changed lanes quickly and kept on going. Too nuts to deal with, or is that two nuts?
road rage sm
I can agree NCMT, same thing happened to us on New Years Eve one time, screamed my head off, not a cop around and went through two states. I will never forget it. I don't speak of it often as I didn't think anyone would believe me! No cell phones then, that's why they are useful, although I am not sure how fast they would come, but it sure makes you feel better. Thanks for sharing.
It was probably 'Wal-Mart rage'.... which is sort of like - sm
I won't go near a WalMart this time of year, or on weekends. Doesn't matter how good my frame of mind was when I went in, by the time I've had to spend any length of time in there with all the rude shoppers, clueless employees who can't answer any questions, (that's IF they speak English at all), it starts to wear thin. The toy department has to be avoided at all costs - filled with a large percentage of our state's illegal immigrants and their out-of-control, shrieking, runny-nosed children. Ackkkk!!! And finally, what comes close to sending me over the edge every time, is the checkout line. Doesn't matter how 'short' the one you get into is... it will be the line where you've got either a trainee cashier or a malfunctioning cash register, or BOTH. The infants in front and back of you will start screaming in stereo and dangerously high on the decibel level. The kid behind you starts banging your knees with the shopping cart, or else someone elbows their way ahead of you and everyone else without asking because they have 'just one item'. But of course, the reality of it is that they have 7 or 8 items, but by then it's too late.
One time I stood there and watched a small boy (but old enough to know better!) carefully taking packages of Mentos candy out out of the rack, opening them and taking out ONE candy to eat, then putting them back in the rack and grabbing another one. Eventually he'd eaten more than a package's worth of Mentos. The mom could see him and never made a move to stop him. Apalling.
I love the bargains at Wal-Mart, and always find cute clothes there, but will only go during normal working hours during the day.
Although an injury-producing fight in the checkout line isn't good, like another poster said, it's fortunate no one was shot or stabbed (depending on the demographic, of course). If I look at my fellow shoppers' faces in line, it's easy to see that like me, they're at the end of their rope, and that rope is pretty frayed. So I can easily imagine such a fray happening, and am surprised it doesn't actually happen more often and with more violent results.
its acceptable, unlike drunken stupor, roid rage, amphetamine rush, which are

I know full well that I was able to...
say "no" to sex at 18 years old, and 17 and 16 and even before that. I knew what sex was and how babies are made. I dated older men and I held my ground. I do believe that all 16, 17 and 18-year-olds know exactly what they are getting into. I think the man is a creep and that he, because of his authority position, had an obligation to stay away from her, but I just can't see two consenting adults having sex as a crime. Inappropriate--absolutely.

HAHAHAHA - I too got FULL of myself..sm
Got full of myself when I lost the weight....I had gone from 210 to 158 and really got so full of myself for a period of time...started wearing dresses and heels and all that stuff *LOL*
For the full 45 days!!!! nm

Full of Joy Sister Cat!!!
Thanks Dahling!!
Is it a full moon? (nm)

I think she full of baloney
Stranger things have happened, though. You are positive she had a hysterectomy? It just doesn't pass the smell test.
..... she IS full of baloney (duh) nm

You are full of information!
Thanks!
Do you remember when Nick went away to boarding school at something like 7 and came back 19? It's completely crazy but I know they have to do it to keep the story line going. I can't wait to see what he looks like though...Sharon or Nick. Michael's dad, I thought that was a dead issue. I wonder who decided to go ahead with finding him. Here we go with Gloria again huh. lol
I missed today but watched yesterday's online. I'm so glad Victoria got a chance to talk to Sabrina. I'm still hoping Sabrina doesn't kick the bucket but sounds like she will. I wonder how Adam will like step-mommy Niki moving into the ranch...I think that's where things are headed.
Because this is a board full of
professional people who strive to be as accurate as possible in what they do. I just figured they'd want to know. You never know when you're going to be called upon to type that next national security document that needs to reference a Navy SEAL and you'd want to be correct, wouldn't you?
Yes, now I'm being silly.
I'm just saying, she might not know the full story if
she wasn't around until the friend actually died. Perhaps, they had marital problems before the diagnosis. I'm not saying he is or isn't a scumbag, I'm just saying if you had no idea the woman's husband left her until after she had died and you were at the funeral, then you probably don't know much else about her personal life.
She already stated that the garage was full
and that they said they would take them instead. Sometimes you do things like that for family, ya know?
Also, she would most definitely say, "why did you store them near the street where you had other things stolen before and stored yours in a safe place?" That is negligence!
Since their quads were not stolen, only the ones right by the street, it is obvious they acted negligently. She stated that the only things stolen on the property were right near the street before. Why would someone put something that they are storing for someone in the same place? That is negligence.
I have no doubt she would probably tell the OP that they should have cleaned the garage and took care of their own quads, but legally, her sister is at fault.
Did you know you can watch the full episode on www.cbs.com?
Something new they started, pretty cool!
Better question to ask..... Do they get full at lunch? sm
My youngest who took those finally asked me 1 day to add a sandwich as those just did not fill her up. She is a very petite 8 year old who is very active. They are just not enough!! :)
Oh, and take one of those carriage rides for full

My daughter got full tuition
room and board and books paid to Stanford University. She had very good grades and we filled out the FAFSA. They gave a huge financial package to her becuase of our income, which is middle class, but so many people who go there have higher incomes that we qualified for quite a bit of aid. You should apply to whatever school you want to go to because you never know how much they will offer. She also has taken out the PLUS loan for the last 3 years, but the total will be less than half a year of tuition.She is a junior this year and we are so glad she didn't let financial worry keep her from applying to the university she dreamed about. Good luck.
not cute since Full House!
They are really thin.... I hate to admit - because I'm not really a fan of hers - but I think Angelina Jolie is really pretty. . . I've also always thought Julia Roberts was pretty, though not "beautiful".
Before this turns into a full blown....sm
back and forth free for all, you also don't know me personally to make assumptions about my personality. This has gotten old quickly, so I'll leave with these thoughts.
You expressed an opinion saying you were ill about her treatment which you thought was above and beyond.
I expressed an opinion, in turn, basically saying if you were in her situation you would want that same protection, considering it's very plausible that it's the obsessive fans and need to know that probably put her in this situation.
Opinions are opinions, facts are facts, and considering all the information any of us knows come from cutthroat reporters who are looking to make that big story, it would be rare if anyone knew any true story about a celeb.
I know if I were famous and hounded by people 24/7, and having a mental breakdown to boot, you can bet your bippy I'd do whatever in my power to make sure I had nobody around who could violate my privacy any more than it had already been violated.
As for the doctors getting suspended, if they weren't on her case, and it's not a teaching hospital, and if she has security, then it's for a reason, and they should have known better than to violate her privacy. Doctors can violate HIPAA just as easily as anyone else, and that's what they were doing, because it's also very possible that those same docs who just wanted a quick peek, probably couldn't keep it to themselves, or they wouldn't have been nosing in her business in the first place. They got less than they deserved.
Walk a mile in her shoes. Have sympathy and compassion in your heart for those who need it, which she obviously does!
Full blown celiac here sm
If I eat wheat or oatmeal (I can't have rye or barley either, but it usually isn't something I am exposed to) I feel like I can't breathe for a couple of hours, my belly bloats up, I start tooting like a banchi and then I can't leave the house until all diarrhea leaves me. It is TMI, but celiac stools are yellow to chalky gray, even white, NOT normal and are extremely foul as well.
What this can do to you is make you anemic. You can have malnutrition from never being able to absorb the good stuff in your food. You might be either very thin or rather overweight, but you always feel horrible, no energy, tired. Food never makes you feel better, no matter how hungry you are and how much/little you eat.
Celiac sprue is considered an autoimmune at this point. The body can't digest the gluten (a type of protein) in wheat, barley or rye. Oatmeal has gluten, but it is chemically different from the others mentioned here. Some celiacs can eat it, some cannot; I cannot. You can't eat any Quaker products because they are all severely cross contaminated and will make you sick. What happens when you eat gluten all the time, is that the villi in the intestines flatten and/or fall off. Their surfaces exchange nutrients from the gut into the body. If they are not present or not functional, it dimishes absorption by 80%. On the other hand, celiacs who go on a gut healing diet will have their villi return to a healthy state (about 90% of celiacs recover the lining of the gut).
If you have another AI, you have to know that celiac likes to piggyback with other AI disorders, particularly SLE and Sjorgen's. Also, it is believed that 2/3 of celiacs are concurrently lactose intolerant and/or allergic to dairy. It is estimated that in the US about 1:150 people is a celiac, whereas 1:4500 will be diagnosed during their lifetime.
Never fear, however...gone are the days of rice cakes and hard rice bread! There are many many books on making gluten free bread with bean and alternative grain flours. There is plenty on the internet too. The best book I can recommend is "The Allergy Survival Guide" by Melina, Stepaniak and Aronson. It is everything free...no animal products, eggs, dairy, nuts, fish, shellfish, wheat, yeast, soy...and the recipes are DIVINE.
The best part is that since going on a GF diet last summer I rarely have a day when I am tired and feel crappy, as long as I behave. I have lost about 40 lbs with no effort, unless you call eating fruit, veggies, soy and beans constantly in as large a quantity as I like, an effort. I have been able to add some GF desserts back into my diet and not gain weight. I also have SLE and I am on 7.5 mg of prednisone every day (weaning to 5 mg). Despite doing a 2-month loading dose of prednisone to get the SLE under control last summer, I dropped 18 lbs the first month on it and another 10 the next month and we all know what pred can do to your waistline.
I'll go and make my polenta crust pizza for supper and enjoy the fact that I won't feel sick after I eat and it will taste wonderful.
At this point I think he is full of hooey - sm
he is calm as can be and acting totally normal, humming about the house, etc. I am just sitting back and watching. He has lied in the past to me in order to make me act. Right now he wants me to get moving on my cc issue and either consolidate, do settlement with one of those companies, or declare bankruptcy and I am unsure what to do. He also wants me to start putting stuff on ebay which again I have not done and he is upset about that. So I think he is just playing games at this point, he can be very childish, he is also clinically depressed so that is no help to the issue as he won't get treatment. He had to re-sign and email in forms about drug and alcohol testing yesterday....not the sign of someone about to be laid-off I don't think. There are 2 other guys in the company I think would go before him as he has been a very valuable employee and gets the job done quickly and well....whereas these other 2 guys milk every job and cost the company more money, he also says in cheaper hotels when he travels and the other guys get $160/night rooms whereas he gets $80/night rooms. So they would be pretty dumb from a business standpoint to lay him off and keep these two others, one actually has a brain injury and cannot troubleshoot at all which is a big portion of his job. They have to tell him what the job is, then he can fix it, or give him just maintanance jobs to do. So for now I plan to sit back and watch for a few more days, the weekend will tell me if it is true or not. I can also call his manager and ask what if anything is going on. He will tell me (friend of the family as well). --as for the kids going to parents, too far away unfortunately, so not an option. I will ship them off to a neighbor for an hour or so to play over the weekend though and find out once and for all. Especially since we'd have to find out about unpaid vacation, any severence pay, his 401K....I plan to approach it on that note, ask him for the planned date of lay-off, etc. If I get no straight answers then I will know is really full of it. He'd be really ranting about it all if he was about to lose his job, then again he does surprise me every now and again. Thanks for the advice though.
I have one that says "his nose was full of snot."
I'm not kidding. I'm told to type it verbatim and what he says is what he gets.
Eeeuuww.
Not using the entire bottle of something and just opening full ones! SM
I have quite a collection of shampoo bottles with about 3/4 inch in the bottom!! Makes me mad at myself!
Fake, but full-sized for the first time
in years.
With so many family members with terrible allergies to real trees (or the spray used on them), it's safer for me to have fake. Plus it might be less tempting to the boys to lift a leg on. We'll see.
Maybe they will create a series! Full House

Got some beautiful new furniture..but full of static. sm
Had the furniture delivered on New Years eve and we have all had the shocks since then. When you sit on it and move you can hear the static in the fabric. The poor dogs look like they got their tale stuck in a light socket!!! The fabric is a micro-suede in choclate brown. Any ideas on what to do to get rid of the static in it?? We have a dry/moisture gauge in our house and it is in the "comfort zone" so we are not dry right now. Help!!!!
My husband has a kennel full of beagles...sm
He rabbit hunts with them and loves it. Before rabbit season went out which I think it just did he was hunting rabits with the beagles all the time. I think he enjoys the dogs hunting and watching them more than actually wanting rabbits. My husband has said he will never move to a subdivision either because he wants to be in the country where he can have his privacy and dogs and all but that doesn't bother me. I am fine living in the country. I couldn't take the keeping pigenos in a cage just to kill them. I would not like that. Now my husband if he has been hunting does tick checks on himself before he gets a shower. That is gross to just leave them until you are ready to pluck them off. I couldn't handle the junk either in the yard. My husband would have our yard looking like no telling what if I would allow it but I just stay on his you know what and I keep it looking pretty good. If he leaves a mess and doesn't clean it up in due time I have to do it because I don't want my yard looking like junky.
Now when it comes to being mean to the dogs and mistreating them there is no faster way to just make me mad as a firecracker. If someone makes the mistake of mistreating a dog in front of me I will go of. I don't think I would be able to restrain myself. I might have to actually become violent. That is just the way I am. I love animals and especially dogs. My husband doesn't mistreat his dogs. But he knows if he ever did he would pay dearly. I do not tolerate cruelty to animals. Animals many times can't defend themselves but I can.
This season has been full of twists and turns! sm
Boy, what a goon Eric is!!! I think he is such an innocent young man. To trust those women, good grief! I believe he is the only person ever to give up immunity in all the seasons of the show. It was bad enough when James got voted off with two idols in his pocket, but I think last night with Eric handing over his power to those girls was insane. He was dominating the game, yet he allowed himself to be sucked in. Amanda has played a cool game with her manipulation of various players. I can see her winning. I cannot say I care much for the other two girls as winners at this point, but we shall see. I will definitely be watching on Sunday!
My life is full of love from my two children.....

No he is full blooded pit bull with papers...sm
But everyone thinks he has boxer in him. He has always looked like a boxer because of his color. Everybody thinks he is a boxer or boxer mix.
Whether full pit or mixed pit, loads of shelters will NOT
let them be adopted out. I was at a shelter the other day, lady came in wanting to retrieve a pit her daughter had taken from her home in a drug bust. The person was told could not let go, it was a pit and the woman said but it is not full and the answer was NO difference, mixed, full they are a danger to society and the people who would adopt know this. The shelter has sign on door (pits have green signs on their individual place) and the sign says no pure or mixed pits adopted out. Don’t you just think maybe these people who have had experience with the breed probably onto something? Naaaa, people just want to keep thinking otherwise. Your life, not mine.
No, I was working a full time job, came home, took
care of my kids, didn't go out, had no money to go out with. I said I could have worked 2 jobs, but chose not to, rather chose to spend some time with my kids.
It was a full-on Italian Sunday dinner.
We always had Sunday dinner with my entire extended family. (We lived on the same street.) So Sundays were a giant food festival with my mother's, grandmom's, and aunts' kitchens going full blast right after church until all the food was brought to Grandmom's for dinner in the afternoon. The first time I cooked for DH, then-boyfriend, was just my usual Sunday routine. My mom was ill, so I did our share of the dinner, which was chicken parmigiana and probably some other things. I also made bread with my grandmother that morning. My poor husband came from a food-deprived culture. His mother can't cook, and Sunday dinners at his house were usually tuna sandwiches and tomato soup. He shared that information at the table with my family, and there was instant silence. You could have heard a pin drop. Jaws went slack and everyone stared. It's still one of my funniest memories. A second or two later, my older cousins started razzing me for bringing home the poor "Irish kid", and all the women jumped up and started heaping more food on my hubby's plate.

Have you seen him in his full drag queen attire?
He makes one tall scary-looking woman...

I did not like the food at all. I have a whole storage container full of it. YUCK and no thx.

please stop feeding the troll; she evidently is full of
white collar workers only *ROFL* - what a small minded troll she is too....oh well, seems like personal problem to me but then y'all have to stop feeding the troll (her). she is also enthralled with herself *HAHAHAHA*......
Well, seems to some of us (me-me-me) that she probably, in that neighborhood of only white collar workers) is low gal on the pole - she IS her own trash.....
Till after this weekend - FULL MOON on the rise!

finally....a sale that coincides with my purse being full. LOL

Peronsally, I would rather pay full price than shop on Black Friday.

Oh really, because I knew of a guy who threw his back out on the job at Wally World and got full sm
comp for it. This is a fact. I don't know where you get your facts from, but I think you are wrong on this one. Obviously. And even if they do dispute it, it does not mean the employee won't get workman's comp for it. A LOT of companies dispute claims. If they didn't 80% of their workforce would be out on Workman's Comp. Oh, my hand hurts. I have carpal tunnel, I need workman's comp! Oh puhleeze!
Time. That's all it takes. I took in a recliner full of smoke and a few years later sm
looks brand new and smells like my own home now. It was really bad with smoke. Same with books. It just takes time. It will eventually go away. Unfortunately, nothing I know works for that without ruining the books.
