I want one of those drinks with a little umbrella!

Family member has one that opens up like an umbrella! Cool. A

Schefflera/umbrella tree/ octopus tree
are deadly to cats/kittens as well.
You can ask if it is small
enough to do without anesthesia, and hopefully your dentist has a good idea of the cavity's size and can judge that for you. Without anesthesia there is some heat and pressure and I guess there was slight pain.
Some dentists are extremely good at giving the shots and it's not bad at all.
I'm sorry you have your first cavity. I was in my 20s myself. Just don't wait on getting it fixed and you'll just have a small filling that hopefully won't give you any problems for 20 years or more.
What about her 2 small children?
That is what really bugs me about her and her behavior. What kind of role model is this for her children?? Just irks me to death what she has been doing. I do not care that she has a nanny or someone watching those kids. Why did she have them????? if all she wanted to do was party and act like a spoiled brat?
For that small amount, can't you take

We have a small one and really enjoy it.
I don't think the taste is affected at all.
Small prime rib
Go onto Food Network and see this recipe Prime Rib with Shoe String Fries with Cabrales Blue Cheese Dip by Bobby Flay. I followed the Prime Rib and it was wonderful. I did put some crushed garlic on the outside as well as the garlic pieces inside. Got more compliments from my guests.
Good luck
No it's not really. Small prey will set
off the prey drive in some dogs, and it's often a breed trait. But all dogs should be socialized to children. While cats should be kept inside IMO, the dogs shouldn't be running loose either, and the dogs are upsetting the balance that had previously existed. The parents obviously aren't set up to contain dogs. So the dog owner should offer to put up a fence that will contain her dogs (and those underground electrical fences won't work due to the cats being able to enter the area). If she can't do that or the parents don't want a fence, then she is very, very wrong to be dropping her dogs off at her parent's house. She's responsible for the dogs, not her parents.
Small Pleasures....
ok, let's have a positive poll for a new perspective here!
What little thing do you do that brightens your day, whether it's every day or just when you can? A favorite routine, a little touch of color at your desk, whatever.
Small world -
I actually grew up in the village of Catskill. I lived in Albany for a while, but am now near Rochester. Very cool.
Unfortunately the towers are too small
for the big cat and I just can't imagine building him a custom play tower. It would take up the whole living room!! I do have this thing that is like a pole with a bunch of arms sticking out with little balls tied to them. They love that.
Even if I started out small
do you think I would need all that legal stuff - licenses, health inspections? At first I was hoping to make money "under the table" so to speak. I don't want to be a large corporation because it would be just me baking so don't think I could handle that much.
Really small world.
I have friends who live in Cabot, one of whom I believe is the director of nurses at Children's.
I am in a small town between
Abilene and San Angelo called Ballinger. My husband has relatives in Abilene.
also being from a small town...
I would call and speak to the principal directly about what you heard. You can do this anonymous if you want, just don't use your phone as they very often have caller id now. I think it is up to the principal to decide if the comments of your child/friends have any merit. The principal should have ALL information and he/she should go from there. To me, my first and foremost priority would be my child. As for this child being falsely accused of something...well...maybe his parents should have taught him to be prepared to deal with the possible consequences of his actions. All kids make mistakes but sooner or later this individual will have to answer for his remarks and take responsibilty for himself - from my point of view, the sooner the better. I would definitely want to know if my child was speaking to others in this manner. I would not want to jump to conclusions but if your gut feelings say to keep your child home from school, do it. Missing a couple days from school is not the end of the world and I am certain he will not be the only one.
By small, I mean size 7 or under. I only wish I was.

In my small town
He was a city boy from 12 hours away living with a cousin for a while. I was a small town country girl. We met one night after I got off work and met up with my best friend to go "riding" around. He was with a friend of mine who was his cousin's girlfriend. We got into her car and rode around together. He was asking my friend about me that same night. He finally called about a month later after some misinformation that I was seeing someone and we've been together ever since. I was 16, he was 19. Married 12 years this year with the three best kids in the world!
Not everyone lives in small towns
I took the bus and T (subway in Boston) to high school and college, as did most kids. Try parking in Harvard Square, or anywhere in Boston for that matter.
When I moved out west to continue college in a city that did not have great public transport, I lived on campus for the first year without a car. After that I bought one for $1000, and insured it for $35/mo (this was in 1993).
My mom does not even have a DL, and did not have the money to pay my tuition, let alone get me a car for school, yet somehow we made it. Kids don't NEED cars in high school. There is always the big yellow bus if you live somewhere there is not public transportation. I was shocked to see how many high school kids were driving around in new SUVs and sports cars like Mustangs where I used to live in the South.
Since it is a small dog, assuming it's healthy,
it actually should not be hard to place. Do contact rescues in your area if you don't have a network of dog-loving people you really know well. Also vets' offices. See if they will put up signs. Sometimes when people lose a pet, they want to get a nice adult dog fast so they won't be alone.
I'm also in NC, and I know a woman who wants a small dog. She's in her 50s, either divored or widowed, needs a small, clean, adult dog that's already trained and won't cost her a fortune. Look for somebody like that.
So sad she has left a small baby as well. nm

Small World. Hi neighbor!!
*waving*
Yes..in the small shops that are Asian run...many to..
choose from. My sis and I saw one lady buy $500 worth of purses, we counted 15 that she had. Every top of the line brand you can imagine. Next year when we go I am bringing and extra suitcase to haul more home! We ate at LA Mela, a fabulous Italian restaurant on Mulberry Street. Sis and I are Italian, so we know good, homemade Italian food and this was top notch! We and our spouses ate and had a bottle of wine, only paid $130 for all of us.
Tell her not to sweat the small stuff...
I read recently that wearing red to a wedding is considered bad luck. News to me! (In some cultures the bride wears red!) Does she really think she can control what all the guests wear? If your dress color is such a big concern she should have told you long ago, so it sounds to me that putting you in charge of the guest book is a recent thing. Keep it pleasant, otherwise you'll be blamed for causing a problem, but tell her you'll pass on that responsibility so you can enjoy the wedding.
Small children, in first grade and
3rd or 4th but I remember feeling so special when I was in a child about this age because I had diamond rings (not big, chip diamonds mostly) that my grandmother gave me, had several boxes of them and if I lost 1 I chose another. I am not talking about spending over 50$ apiece on these.
Small print receipes? sm
I just recieved an e-mail from dccase complaining about the small print on a receipe from a Bobby Flay show for enchiladas. If dccase reads this, I think maybe you sent the e-mail to the wrong address.
I am talking about small branches of
shrubbery, greenery around the home. You do not have to leave welts but a few quick hits on the legs (I personally would have them undress) now flame me anyone for that statement but this kid is not doing anything but ranting and raving. Fight fire with fire. I have never used paint stirrer- the switches worked so well with kids.
start with small steps
It does sound like separation anxiety. I've had this. I start with small steps -- going out and driving around a couple of blocks and then coming back home again. Then I increase the amount of time I am driving little by little. She knows Mom will be back this way and over time has gotten used to my being gone for hours. She had been abused when I got her and was a wreck emotionally so I hope this gives you comfort.
I also keep the atmosphere at home the same when I go out as when I am home -- radio playing, lights on, etc. No drastic changes except for me being gone. My pets like New Age. Puts them right to sleep. (me too sometimes).
If you have an answering machine, call home and just talk to the dog as you would if you were there. Let him hear your voice. He might just think you are in another room, but with your dog he might tear down the doors to get to you so I don't know about this for your circumstances.
I also have a roomy crate near my desk and I keep a pair of slippers near it. I have a couple of cats and a dog. They all argue over who's crate it is, as they think it is their "special place." The door is left open all the time. Often I find them all in there snuggled up together. But this gives them a feeling of a special place whether I am here or not. They have their place, I have mine. I think this helps when I am gone because I often find my dog has dragged her favorite blanket over to the crate while I was gone. My scent is on the slippers and that comforts her.
Also, bringing home a treat helps!
I have a cat who pries the cabinet doors open and curls up inside the frying pans. Now I have an obstacle course of buckets, etc. to climb over as I work at the counter! (If I move them, I forget to put them back until I hear him close the cabinet door behind himself.)
There are more tricks out there somewhere but I can't remember any of them. Hope you find something that works for you. That's a BIG problem in more ways than one!
Howdy! I am from a small town
between Abilene and San Angelo called Ballinger. 
Maybe the small town gal coming out in me,
but I'd help as much as I could. My mom's that bad with a computer, and after I got it straightened out for her when it was really bad..most of the time it's something really simple. She'll say something like that where her email won't come up and it's just that she's hitting the wrong button or has her number lock key on or something. I guess maybe you could ask yourself if you or your hubby were away and something happened, would they help you? If the answer is no, then by all means let them fend for themselves. Like I said, might be the small town gal in me, but we help our neighbors any time they need it and we're able to.
Too small for me... love my SUV and not giving it up...
and will be getting another one. Prius and the like okay for in town driving but I live rurally, shop once a week, load up the SUV and it's done. My gas mileage is 20 -24 mpg and I can afford the gas.
"It's A Small World After All" --
Ever gone to Disneyland and stood in the long line outside of the Small World ride? They play the song about 4 million times, and that's before you ever even get in there and get into the car, or boat, or whatever it is. By the time you're halfway through the ride, you'll feel ready to jump out and run screaming for the exit. Not to mention having the rest of your day at Disneyland tainted by that song running through your head hour after hour.
So then, at the end of the day you attend the Main Street Electrical Parade, and the theme song for that one is even more insidious and intrusive on your brain than Small World!
Still worse is the fact that it's written to run in counterpoint with "It's a Small World", "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah", and just about every other well-known Disney song. So NOW your poor brain has multiple, unstoppable songs bouncing around the inside of your skull, possibly for DAYS.
Yes, those songs are EVIL -- probably some form of "Disney Mind Control"..........
Looking for small dog good with kids..sm
My husband and I are dog hunting and have decided to get a small dog (no bigger than a spaniel) that is good with kids (we don't have any children yet) and is not yappy or really hyper. Any ideas?
Thx
We were introduced in a small local
hole-in-the wall bar we both hung out at by one of my friend's husband who was a mutual friend. Been together for 9 years.

Exactly. If you were in a small dark place that
that was too dark to be able to see, you'd still be claustrophobic.
Small town isolation
I have lived in small towns for nearly 40 years. Newcomers are not welcomed very well. I had a person at church tell me thank for coming to their church after being a member for many years. They are not a bit backward in ignoring you at pubic events.
Since you live in a small town
and you say people know your dog, perhaps you could leave your new address and phone # with several people. If he does show up, surely someone will contact you. Wishing you the best.
Small claims court.
Call your local legal aid. They should be able to tell you if you have a case. I think you might be able to take her to small claims court. She is not holding up her end of the bargain.
I've got one of those small space heaters.
They are great to warm the feet. I uually run hot water over my hands when they get stiff or cold. Haven't tried those gloves yet but maybe someone else will post about them for you.
small claims court - sue them both for the balance - sm
But.... talk to your niece about it and let her know that in order to sue her ex roomie for the money, you also have to sue her.
Let it be a life lesson and tell her it's not like you hold anything against her but you have bills too and can't support hers.
Thanks for the hope, I already have a small belly pannus - sm
but am hoping to shrink it up enough so I don't have hang when I finally do accomplish my goal-- like I said below 70 pounds to shed, but once I do it I figure clothed I will at least look good! With any luck I will have that answer in about 6 months. I'm 200 pounds shooting for 130/120 (I'm 5Ɖ.5") so it's a doable weight. Again, thanks for the hope!
Small claims court, am sure, would work
exactly like it did today. I got a default judgement and then I have to go to find the money owed me. Had a case in small claims years ago and about the first thing told to the clients was just because you won a judgement, you had to be the 1 to collect. I might call tomorrow and ask a few questions. Thanks
Any suggestions for making a small prime rib. nm
:
Of course not! A small gift is fine for the 2nd time IF you were sm
invited to the "festivities," (showers, wedding, etc.)
Get her a fancy pen for when she writes thank you notes to all of those who are supporting her for the second time! LOL
Small dog owners Please Read my warning
Yesterday, a lady was driving down our hill with her little doxie in the front seat of the van. I don't think the dog was even a year old yet. Anyway, she sideswiped a telephone pole which put her out of control, her airbags went off, and she couldn't see with all that white powder flying around, and she wound up in a drainage ditch. When the airbags went off, they struck her dog and killed him. Although our neighbor is a nurse and tried CPR, the poor thing had broken ribs which probably punctured his lungs.
So, what I'm saying is if you're going to take your dog for rides, please put them in the back seat, preferably with doggie seat belts, not the front seat. I could barely sleep last night over this. I feel so bad for the poor dog. It didn't have to happen. The lady was so upset over it and feeling so guilty, it took us over 2 hours to get her calmed down.
Small birds keep nesting in my ferns on the

What does a small child look like to a large dog, if NOT prey???
i
you're absolutely correct....very small...
At Bahia Honda....you have to get there at the crack of dawn to get in and get good spots. I live right by Hollywood Beach. Been to Sanibel and you're right about that. Captiva Island is great too!! Went thru St. Augustine but not to the beach. I love Florida!! *S*
Sounds like you want something small, simple and pretty.
So do just that! Don't worry about the lists. I think the first decision is to decide where you want to have the wedding. Many places often have on-site wedding planners to help you. In fact, from what you wrote, I think you've already got a good start on the planning. You want something simple, you want a pretty dress. Pick a place and maybe hire a caterer to bring in some simple food... maybe just a cocktail hour with hors d'ouerves, and a cake. You don't need formal music or dancing. I had a friend simply have a caterer come in and do a nice bbq for 30 people in their pretty backyard. Flowers were blooming, really no need to decorate, and they programmed an iPod with a wedding playlist, and played it over the stereo. We had a lovely time, and it was very simple and pretty.
As for gifts, my DH and I did exchange gifts. I bought him a watch, which he still wears 22 years later. We went to Cancun for a honeymoon. (It was much quieter in those days.) While there, he found a really pretty string of blue fresh water pearls. So 1985! But I love them and still wear them today!
