my self esteem is really pretty good. Just that my heart is sometimes bigger than my head

good point...sm
except, in my opinion, the only thing they, organized religeon i.e., churches, are trying to *convert* is money out of our pockets and into theirs. I have felt for a long time that the word of God is free and that a lot of these *churches* feel they need to charge for their *services*, and I feel I can attain spirituality by my own studying and researching, rather than having to *conform* to what someone elses idea of God's word is. again, just my opinion. I don't open the door to these people either.
Good point. Thank you for the

Good point!
I don't seem to need to be stressed for it to hit me, and unfortunately it always seems to be when I need to be out the door.
I had my gallbladder removed a couple of months ago and it seems even worse since then, alot of diarrhea.
Good point-
history shouldn't have to repeat itself- if we will only learn from it.
Look what happened during WWII to the Japanese, being put in interment camps (and these were American citizens) because of the hysteria at the time.
And during the Holocaust jewish people were desperate to come here for saftey and yet were limited to less than 30,000 a year, and many were turned away because of immigration policies.
What I find truly shocking is that in 1939 a Roper poll found that only 39 percent of Americans felt that Jews should be treated like other people. 53 percent believed that "Jews are different and should be restricted" and 10 percent believed that Jews should be deported (knowing what their fate would be!!). The United State's tight immigration polices were not lifted during the Holocaust and it is estimated that 190,000 to 200,000 Jews could have been saved if it were not for deliberately created obstacles to immigration. But hey we couldn't have them all coming over here and taking over the country, right?
Of course we now know that at the same time our own government was sneaking in Nazi war criminals so we could utilize their research and knowledge.
Now the Muslims are being treated like second-class citizens, and people seem to think it is perfectly legitimate and acceptable (because they all must be terrorists). Sound familiar?
Just be grateful for having the good fortune of being born as American citizens and have a little tolerance for those who are not as fortunate.
Good point- thanks! (nm)

That's a good point too - thank you (sm)
I think I am going to rethink my earlier decision to just go with the popular advice to wait because that really is playing a game, and the precedent has already been set so if I change it now, he might take that as an ultimatum. I think I will ask, and if he says I am contacting him too much I will back off. If not, and he is happy with things as they are, I will just go with it.
Oh, good point.
I forgot about exercise. I have definitely stepped that up a few notches, which has helped a lot.
Good point!
Replacement activities are definitely helpful-especially for times when you normally smoked. For instance, I would drink water when I was on the phone cause I smoked alot then.
And like Misha said, note the money you are saving and use it to reward yourself for doing great- get massages or whatever you want to pamper yourself.
Good point. (sm)
I've had the same occur with my kids, as far as sometimes not having sufficient time to get to class (on time).
Good point. It is all about the key...
but what does the key truly signify? Especially if one is home all time anyway.
Good point
Heck, I forget to take other meds sometimes and they are not of the same variety and are not the cause of my forgetfulness.
Wow...good point. nm

wow good point!!

Good point....sm
I just told my mom today that the next one I make I am not putting the white boa trim on top because I said some people may not want that. I am asking $20 on ebay for this one. The ones without the trim on top will be less, probably $15. This is just the first one. I am going to make many different ones and different colors and see how they do.
Very good point...
... and somehow, even though I'm in my 50s, I hadn't really thought of it that way, because my mind hasn't caught up with my aging carcass (and I hope it never does, actually).
But after my father had passed away, and my mother's best friend died unexpectedly, the friend's husband started hitting on my mom. She said to me, the LAST thing she needed was another old geezer to nurse through his final illness and watch die!
Well good luck with that little baby!!!

Wannie, very good point! lol

Yes, very good point on crating!
The poor animals simply become conditioned (brainwashed) basically because they have no other choice. Crates are used because owners are too lazy to take a couple weeks of physically teaching a dog to toilet outside. There are much better and more humane ways than crating.
You know both of you make a good point (sm)
Deciding to control our own reactions because "we will never, ever control what comes at us." Excellent point.
Good point. My son put me on his plan...sm
last Christmas because I travel a lot by myself. I was considering dropping the land line, but now I don't think I will.
you make a very good point
I like your perspective. And by the way, your kids will expect you to apologize when you mess up...mine do. No one gets a free pass.
Good point! I could never buy a CD of Adam's
nm
Good point...I'll pay $10 only. :D :D nm
......
Good point, I can see that as possible - I guess (sm)
If I never loan him money and I only pay for what is comfortable to me, then I can't be taken advantage of. If he started to ask for money, I could say no and break it off then, when I knew for sure. I guess if I draw the line now that's a good thing.
Baby monitors are a good idea....(sm)
Baby monitors are a good idea because they are alot more cost effective than the alternative intercom system in each room. You can get dual monitors and place them in various rooms and use the cordless monitor for yourself to hear what's going on in whatever room she is in. They make those portable cordless monitors for parents now to carry around while 'baby' is sleeping, so they can actually get stuff done around the house and outside the house. This might work very well. I also like the idea of the other poster who said to rig up a doorbell. I think this would work very well too. I definitely would try it. Either of these alarms would help out with giving you and your mother some peace of mind. Please let us know what you come up with.
Have a great day! :)
Good baby shower gifts? sm
I am going to my first baby shower ever, and I am not a mom so I need some ideas for good gifts for the shower. She is not finding out what she is having so I have no idea what to get and want to get a gift that she will use. Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks for the good news! Enjoy your baby! :-) nm

Playmates and playgrounds - good point (sm)
Yes! He goes on these three day fishing trips with his buddies, and they drink the whole time - a lot. He told me last night that no one else in that group cares what the other one does - he said "we all try to make sure each other is safe but other than that, we are all grown men, everybody has their secrets and their habits and all of us realize that."
Good. If you had relied on recept. to get your point
x
Good point! Maybe he should have to pay child support!
!
Good point, I will be contacting a lawyer - sm
to get their input, though I wil probably do the filing solo so I save money, only about $300 if I do it myself. Just need to get info and follow the rules.
Anyone have any good/unique baby shower games?
My oldest daughter is having a baby at the end of June and I am throwing a baby shower. I would like to do a couple of simple games. Any ideas???? Thanks in advance.
Okay good news first, the running will stop at some point.
My youngest (3-1/2 now) did the same thing, and my 5-year-old never did either. I was mortified with his behavior and the worst part was my dh thought I was overreacting. Then he took the kids to the store alone one day. He came home and said "Wow Tommy is naughty in the store", well duh!!!! that is why I look like I have been through a battle when I get home from the store everytime. At about 2 1/2 he started listening and got psyced about holding on to the cart with mommy, or even better riding in one of the "car carts" that they have at the supermarket. But anywhere that he needed to sit still for I just ended up finding a babysitter until he was more calm (around 32 months).
My 5-year-old starts school this year too and she is having the same issue. She is not a shy girl by any means,but she is soooo worried about K. I think it is normal and I am hoping that she will be okay once she gets there and is involved in the activities.
Sorry I guess this was not really much help, except to know you are not alone.
Haha...exactly. :O) NM

haha
I laughed so hard when i seen you say "googly eyes" lol.
I always find it hard to watch people that think they're so darn sexy and it's like you have got to be kidding me!
I think the girl that was a backup singer is really good but without being mean it's hard to watch her too because she has no neck!
haha!
k
No, I wish! haha...
Just a lady who comes and cleans once every 2 weeks.
haha -
Does he not give you access to the $?
I would just go and get new tires. That is very dangerous. If you have to set up your own checking account and get your money dd in there or buy your own PO Box.
Apart from the tire issue you need access to $ if you don't have it now.
HAHA
i liked that so much i posted it on my personal blog
HAHA!!! you got that right...
haha!!
Im not embarrassed to answer in my PJ's... but I DO feel like I have to take my bathrobe off (which is what i cozy up in over my PJs in the winter time)...
:)
Haha! I like that, maybe you should tell him!..nm
nm
yep, he's a boy, haha....
and he's starting to hike up that hind leg when he goes, BUT, in the apartment, he only goes when I don't take him out for hours, which was the case, for example, last 2 weeks I had the flu and sciatica pains hit at the same time, I was MISERABLE and could hardly bend over to get the leash on the poor little guy, and getting up...gah...and I was so wore out I would literally lose track of time, so I admit the few accidents he has had lately have been because I haven't taken him out.
I dont use piddle pads anymore. He made it easy for me to get rid of them, he started chewing up unused ones to play with for some reason, so I stopped using them. I only have 1 room in the whole apartment now that has anything to piddle on, newspaper, and that is in the utility room, which is the room he stays in if we are gone a lot during the day so he won't make a mess. He will scratch on the door to the utility room. The other times he goes is just accidents, unless there's a blanket on the floor, he will piddle on a blanket on the floor, or piles of laundry on the floor (like in my son's room), but otherwise he hasn't messed on anything. I do plan to get him neutered, but had to wait for the financing thanks to my crappy old job (which, btw, is why I had the name "goincrazyquick" haha, related to my last job). I've since found a new one and after 3 months of in-house training I'm back at home, so now I can get the puppy back on a schedule, myself on a schedule, and get the puppy scheduled for getting him neutered. :)
My cousin has 3 of her 4 dogs pomeranians, and one is a pom mix she got from a friend who found him. she has no problems in her home with 2 males and 2 females, but she said if he's not truly marking territory indoors, which he isn't because the accidents have only been here in the last 2 weeks where I was sick, or only if there is a blanket on the floor, otherwise no other accidents indoors for months, then he should be ok as far as not marking territory indoors. If the person who I got him from is correct on his age, then he turned 1 year beg. of January. Finally have the money to get him fixed, now just have to remember to get that appointment set! I started working midnights, haha, so my time is all out of whack.
I hope the OP is able to get her pup potty-trained too! :)
OMG! LMBO!! haha
