I'm going down same road - please answer questions for me-sm
I have no other option but to get this done. I have been putting this off for awhile now, terrified of dentists.
1. Do you feel better healthwise since you got the dentures? Sometimes, I feel I will just generally feel better and maybe have more energy if I get this done.
2. Did they pull all top ones at once or in a few visits? Seems like such a traumatic thing to me to have done, maybe it's not so bad though?
3. What kind of anesthetic did you have, just novocaine or nitrous oxide or completely out?
3. Do you feel better about how they look and happy about having it done, now that it's over?
Thanks so much.
Just Answer The Simple Questions --
1. What treatment did your daughter receive?
2. Will/did she require plastic surgery?
3. You say you filed a police report, what was the police's resolution?
These are very simple questions. Yet, when asked in the posts below, you choose to ignore them. It's what makes people suspect that you are just in it for the money and that no real harm was done.
You first claimed that you just wanted them to pay your daughter's medical bills, that they shouldn't benefit from your insurance that you pay for. Yet, later, you state that the $800 would be for pain and suffering for your daughter (as your insurance has already paid it). Lastly, you state that $87 would be reimbursement for your medical bills and the rest would be pain and suffering for your daughter. Pain and suffering is not something one generally reimburses another for without a court to determine the extent one is due.
The only one suffering here is your conscience! Again, I say, answer the 3 questions above, or are you afraid of what it might reveal?
Hi, Kelly., answer tio your questions..........sm
They say it is more or less a forever thing. But as soon as you have good results, you can take breaks. When you notice that the hairloss starts again, restart the treatment.
My problem was not severe, I just noticed some hairloss.
Minoxidil works in that way that it is a vasodilator, therefore the drop in BP, and it widens the arteries, also in the scalp, so the follicles get more blood supply and new hair sprouts.
As even your doctor recommended it, you should have no problem inspite of your thyroid issue.
At least you can try it out.
But be patient, as the process in the beginning takes time, as the follicles have to be 'revived' first.
But if you can get through the first 3-4 months, you will see results.
I know that a lot of people use this.
Rogaine and Propecia are the 2 treatments with proven results.
But Propecia is in tablet form and ONLY for men, as it contains testosterone.
Oh, oh I know the answer to the French fries questions, because....
They way the potatoes are sliced/cut is a french technique (julienne).
You could post an update and answer some of the questions raised?

Yours is cute, too, Mimi!
I am so jealous. I have e-mailed the administrator for some assistance. I  why it will not allow me to edit profile. Thanks to everyone who is helping!
Mimi - how funny!!
Thanks for the laugh to go along with my morning coffee before I tackle the REAL Sanjayas in my world of transcription!!   
Mojo and Mimi--love it!
Are they always like that? I mean, stuck together like glue?! So cute! All these kitty pictures really have me missing my old guy...even if he always hissed and growled at me when I tried to get some lovin' out of him. I'm thinking I'll be making a trip to the shelter tomorrow...saw a thing on the news they are over capacity with cats. Lots of folks surrendering their pets because it's either fuel or food and the pets lose. Give 'em a big hug for me!
Short answer: Yes, it's VERY rude. Long answer inside.
I wouldn't want my husband to ask, either. In fact, if he did and the people said yes, I still wouldn't go and stay with them, because I'd feel like they were pressured. Believe me, if they wanted you to come and stay with them at any point in the last 10 years, they'd have asked you. I, too, live near a vacation destination, and I hate it when people ask to stay with me. They're the rude ones for asking, but it puts me in an uncomfortable position of trying to politely say no. And it seems that when I do say no, the thwarted "guest" then complains to everyone else in our social circle that we are cheap, mean and unwelcoming.
Tell your husband to crack open the wallet and pay for a hotel.
I know a game
spin the bottle, like as in sweetheart.
Just a game?
Just a GAME?? JUST A GAME??????
...er, nevermind, my pills have kicked in. :-)
seen the game Mad Gab? -
had to be developed by a MT.
Fun game.
Here's a fun one, if you just bounce on for a second and then go back to typing. Don't know if you've done it or not.
First person starts and I will
Sweet or salty: (the next person answers and then does another comparison for example)
Sweet. Then add their own like this,
Mountains or beach: (okay now you go, have fun!)

So...WHO WON that game anyway? lol.

game idea
Our youth group had a balloon tower game. The kids were divided into 2 teams and each given the same number of balloons and scotch tape. They had a certain amount of time to blow up the balloons and build a tower and see who had the tallest one at the end of the time limit. We had kids of all ages and they all seemed to enjoy it.
Think it is a little late in the game
because at 22 she should already pretty much know how to manage. My daughter not only paid did all the bookkeeping for our family but had her own job, own car, own this and that, very self sufficient at that age. This is something you start prior to her age of 22.
The dating game.
I hate it and that's why I continue to be single and loving it. Knowing the simplistic mind and approach of men to relationships, think of it this way (just to put it bluntly). They are like boys with new toys. If they play too much with the toy, sooner or later, they will set it aside and forget about it. As far as "games," yes dating is a game, a "cat and mouse" game. The cat enjoys inmensely chasing after the mouse. You have to "dangle the catnip" for the cat and let him work for it. If the mouse does the chasing, then it is not fun for the cat. Many men have the same thing in mind while dating "hit and run" (if you know what I mean), as in "why buy the cow, when you have tasted the milk." You have to let him do the chasing. When a woman goes too much after a man, he just sits in his all mighty throne knowing that he doesn't have to do anything, but wait for you to come to him to tell him how much you need him. If he really has any real true intentions, he will call you or write to you wondering what you have been up to. There is nothing worse for a man that not to know what a woman is thinking. 
come to think of it - I am very good at that game
nm
Bunco is a game....(sm)
It is a game where teams roll dice and try to get certain sets of numbers for prizes at the end of the game. Nothing to do with grooming at all. I agree with you. Very few women who I can get along with other than on a superficial basis.
loved the game
I watched and LOVED the game - I really didn't care who won - I rooted for both times - love both quarterbacks. . . totally enjoyed the whole thing - even most of the commercials. . my fiance isn't much of a footbal fan, so I mostly watched by myself - used the game as an excuse to have lots of snacks.
No it is a PC game that you can buy at WalMart
They do make a console version but it's horrid.
if you have slow PC or laptop I would recomend The Sims Life Stories because The Sims 2 game takes up a lot of memory and requires a fast system, the Life Stories is a "lite" version and requires you to reach certain goals rather than free play. I really enjoyed Life Stories, wish they would come out with more.
here is the sims 2 deluxe edition:

Another fun video game sm..
Is Wii Fit. It's the first video game I've ever bought in my life. It has yoga, some strength exercises, aerobics (running in place). I live in the South, and it's nice to exercise in my house with the air conditioning.
Playing the game
1. I'm a HUGE flirt!
2. Can manage LOTS of money at my other job but can't seem to manage 3.00 in my own checking account {sigh}.
3. Would love to hop in an RV and travel the country!
I was actually at the 6th game in 1980.
I saw the Phillies win their one and only WS championship. Just one. And the Phillies have been around since 1883. Makes you want to laugh and cry at the same time.
I love the Phils even though they've broken my heart more times than I can count. Maybe for that reason I'm trying to pretend that I'm not too excited. I'm hoping that Richie Ashburn has some pull up in heaven and maybe can call in some sort of favor for another World Series this year. What's that everyone's saying? Eight-O and O-Eight. Please, just one more before I die!
my favorite game
I played a really fun game at someone's baby shower that I have always remembered. You buy a few jars of baby food and take off the labels. Number the jars of food and keep a key around for you so you won't forget what they are! Try picking ones that look similar or might be hard to guess. Pass the baby jars around and get everyone to write down what they think it is. The person with the most correct answers wins. Good luck!
Awesome game
Loved it, loved it, loved it!
Watch a baseball game. sm
A lot of pro sports people do it too. Good luck, maybe he will stop.
We all have troubles with kids. My 21-year old son was on pot real bad, and he has finally stopped, so hang in there.
Imagination is when all parties know it's just a game.
If you were fine with finding out Santa was just a myth, fine, hopefully your kids will be the same. But don't have a cow just because some people aren't into the Santa thing. And I don't have kids, so you don't have to worry about my "poor kids." And it's not necessary to e-mail me to express your anger over my opinion.
Another cute balloon game
Blow up balloons and then usig yarn tie one around each girl's ankle and then then let them run around an try to pop the others. I also agree with the other poster (daughter is 14) after many sleepovers I have found out that the girls love to just sit and talk. Have tons of snacks and a little privacy. They will enjoy just being together. Good luck and hats off to you for having a house full of girls.
My kitty's favorite game
is to run down the hall from us so we chase her. Then she hides under my son's bed, and she especially loves this when it's dark at night, and she waits. Then we go to look under and find her. As we turn and walk out of the room, she comes after our ankles and bats us (not with claws). WE turn around and chase her back under the bed and then walk away and she comes out all over again. This is her game...anyone else's cat like hide and seek ?
We play the dictionary game. (sm)
You can buy it, but all you really need is a dictionary, pieces of paper and pencils, and a bunch of people who are good at making stuff up.
The way we play it, not only does the person who chose the word and tricks people get points for each person he tricks, but anybody whose wrong answer gets voted for collects points too. It's hilarious.
I love that game. It is addictive. -nm
GREAT GAME. GIANTS FAN HERE
even though they should be the New Jersey Giants since they play at the Meadowlands. LOL. I am from Northern New Jersey. The Patriots looked lack luster to me. I was waiting for them to just explode but they didn't and glad they didn't. The last touchdown was the clincher but still got nervous when the Pats got the ball back. The best play, I thought, was when Eli almost got sacked and threw that terrific pass to Tyre who made a spectular catch. My heart was pounding. BEST GAME EVER. Been a Giants fan for many, many years. My dad went to high school with Alex Webster, who was a Giants coach at one time. When my parents got married in 1954 a few of the Giants players at that time CRASHED my parents wedding. My mom was not thrilled but my dad and the guy guests were. LOL
Gonna watch the parade on TV tomorrow at 11 a.m. Too bad it is supposed to be raining but I am sure they won't care.
Help me think of U words for a Cub Scout Game.
I'm running a cub pack meeting tonight and have a guessing game for the boys to keep them busy before the meeting starts. The theme of the meeting is "Magic", and they are putting their hands into holes cut into shoe boxes. Each box is labeled with the letters H-O-C-U-S P-O-C-U-S. Each box contains an item that begins the letter on the box. The boys can't see in the box, They have to guess what's in the box by touching the item. I'm having a hard time thinking of and finding "U" items to put in those two boxes. Can you help?
This game is sweet-check it out!
I'm so addicted.

My sis has a Wii and the bowling game is great....
you get some exercise, can have a drink or so while playing, and don't have to smell like cigarettes when you get home. Or spend any money on shoes etc. LOL.
Yes & could you help me find the best Scrabble game ?? sm
I have turned my grandsons onto Scrabble. They are very into Wii and computer, etc. When they come here we have a Scrabble challenge and I cannot believe they want a board game so when I go over there we can continue. There is one at LL Bean for $50 that turns and is wood. One at Hasbro.com which is an anniversary addition for about $39 but plastic. I am just so happy we have this connection and this contest going on, I am searching, but perhaps you know the best place. Of course, I am Grammie so it takes me longer. Keep on playing board games as these kids are addicted to technology!
I just got a Scrabble game on EBay
We play Scrabble each holiday - kinda got a contest going on. We have been through 2 regular games but thought it would be great to have the turntable. I decided to check Ebay 2 weeks ago and one had an hour left on the bid and I won the bid for $19 w/ S&H. There was one tile gone but they told me ahead of time about that which is n problem really as we had all the tiles from the old game and they fit just fine. Bought an egg timer at the dollar store and looking forward to this year's game fest. Good for you playing a board game with the grandkids. Teaches them a little spelling subliminally too.
Found my Scrabble game sm
Went online to Walmart at 4:30 AM, they had the new jubilee edition for $10 less than Hasbro direct, it has a carrying case, curved letter holders, lazy Susan turning board. The only thing I didn't like was that the pieces look plastic. I also bought the word book and a few other books, DVD's and lo and behold by 6:00 PM I got an E-mail saying they had shipped. I don't know if this was a Black Friday item but there were some deals on there. Our local Walmart is very "seedy" and I would not enjoy going there in the dark AM, so I did well. I have gotten my two grandsons interested in Scrabble as this is the only part of my brain that works well and it's a challenge for them to "Beat Grammie" - better than being glued to the Wii. LL Bean has a great wooden set but it's $99 and would be hard for them to carry around.
Walmart only game in town sm
I live in a poor rural county and Walmart is the only place there is to shop and is also one of the largest employers. This may be because they came in and killed off other businesses, but there is also Family Dollar and Dollar General which seem to be going strong. When I'm in there, which is probably 2-3 times a week, they are always telling employees to take breaks and I see the same faces I've seen for the past 7 years. I can't afford to shop anywhere else and if I could, don't have time to drive at least 1 hour one way to shop at Target, Kohls, etc. which is what I would have to do.
Not boasting, but I'm actually ahead of the game sm
We changed our lifestyle quite a bit over the last year. We just built a new house out in the country, so we are not ordering in as much. I actually make a menu for the week and buy groceries for that menu. I plan my meals ahead of time, but we still allow ourselves the luxury of eating out, usually once on the weekends. We were very fortunate to be able to budget for a geothermal heat pump, so heat bills! YEAH!!!! Because we went with the full geothermal (not just a regular heat pump), our light bill didn't go up that much either.
I have 3 kids and they are all elementary age and play lots of sports. They're all playing baseball, and the parents were given the option to either work the concession stand 1 game per child per season or pay $20. Needless to say, I'm working the concession stand for 3 games and saving that $60.
I also took on a part-time job in direct sales. It has been a Godsend. Not only do I get out a couple of nights a week with other ladies to have a good time, but I also get paid to do it. I make about $200 a night for about 4 hours of work, although it doesn't feel like work. I'm also on my way to earning a free vacation for next year through this company. This year, we're headed to Disney with the money I've made so far from direct sales.
I knew I needed to make a little extra income. I work part-time for an MTSO now about 6 hours a day, and the money is good, but I wanted a little for the extras. This direct sales thing was right up my alley. I don't know how long it will last in this economy, but I intend to "ride the wave" as long as I can.

Recipes for a newlywed game!!! SM
Hey gang. I've been reading all of your posts about different recipes. I've been married about a year and a half and I'm sad to say that I only have about 10 meals that I know I can make. My problem is...I'm just not creative enough to think up of different things. So, I thought not only as a helpful tool for me, but also for others, could you please post your "go-to" meal for either breakfast, lunch or dinner and lets see how many recipes we can share with each other. Thanks so much and I'll start...
My favorite thing to make for dinner is beef stroganoff. I take about a pound of tenderized stew beef and about a 1/4 pound of mushrooms and brown them in a pan. Then I add two packages of McCormick stroganoff mix (I get mine from Safeway) along with 10 ounces of sour cream. I cook this down until it is nice and thick. Then I pour it over egg noodles! SOO SOO SOO good. Pair it with some garlic bread (my husband's specialty) and you're good to go!
Now...lets see what else we can come up with to help each other out (especially me...lol).
Thanks ladies!!!
Questions
I have breastfed and am currently breast feeding and would like to ask you
If you were on the air plan which would you prefer the mother breastfeeding her child to comfort and keep him/her quiet in this cramped uncomfortable environment or to listen to this child scream bloody murder making your trip totally unbearable????
Some thoughts:
Children that young dont know how to clear their ears when changing altitudes and it easier to either have them sleeping or sucking.
Also some young children that are breastfed refuse bottles completely.
Older babies do not like to have their faces covered while eating they want to see their mommy and surroundings.
Personally:
I am the mother of a ten month old that will be flying (on a long flight) for the first time next month. I plan on breastfeeding him if needed and if I do need to I will have my older daughter there to hold a small blanket up as a sort of shielding wall. I am more than ready to be done breastfeeding and am working very hard to get him there as well but because his schedule doesnt agree with mine I dont think that I should be barred from traveling on a plane and I think the other passengers on the plane would prefer I comfort my child to the best of my ability so that they can try and enjoy their trip as well.
The sucky part about is I will be on the mentioned airlines soooooo may be my son wont get to meet his grandparent for the first time because my child comes first always!!!! Take care everyone and enjoy your holidays I am climbing off my soap box now
you need to ask yourself 2 questions sm
1. Can the bridesmaids comfortably wear a strapless dress (not everybody can)?
2. Do the shoulders need to be covered if the wedding is in a church?
I'd choose number 2.
Two questions
Has she been anywhere that she could have come in contact with bedbugs? (stayed at a motel, slept over at a friend's house)
Is it possible she has been in contact with poison ivy?
We went through a similar problem with my husband a while ago. He has to travel sometimes for his job, and several years ago he picked up some bedbugs from a hotel.
Since then, we have moved to a new house and he got a new bed. When he started itching again we were concerned it was bedbugs, but the rash was similar to how you describe your daughter's rash, and we finally figured out he had probably gotten into some poison ivy in our back yard.
Good luck - I hope you figure out the cause (and cure) soon.
questions
1.You'll never see me watch___? reality TV
2.You'll never see me wear___? a designer dress
3.You'll never see me eat___? chocolate covered ants
4.You'll never see me buy___? any male enhancement products
5.You'll never see me clean___? at all, unless I'm getting company!
6.You'll never see me kiss___? Jack Black, ewwww
7.You'll never see me talking___? about wanting to work outside my home
questions
I think a lot depends on your specific circumstances. I got an apartment because he refused to move out. I had planned it for months. Legally though if you leave and the house is in both your names, that's not good because he'll get the house.
As far as the kids, so much depends on their ages but you'd be surprised how much they already intuitively know. Just be honest with them and make sure they know they are loved by both of you, and that none of this is their fault. Give them as much stability as possible and once they see you are happier, their lives will be too.
There are a lot of questions here,
1 being the fact that this "nanny" was supposed to be with the 16-year-old. The police said they are sticking with their story, the Travolta camp saying differently. Supposedly this child had two (2) nannies that were supposed to be with him at all times. If a cover up, it has a lot to do with it.
Some questions sm
Boy this is a tough situation. My first thoughts are to ask you if you feel he has been a good husband. In other words, if this DID happen 17 years ago, perhaps he has changed his ways and become a better partner. However, you indicate you think he's lying to you so I'm wondering if you have trust issues even today. You really need to sit down and have a long heart to heart with hubs and clear this up because it's not easy to throw away 17 years of a marriage and children together.
Well, more questions then
If this only happens once a month, or approximately every 28 days....
How long has it been going on?
Is she gaining weight?
Is there a boyfriend in her past or present?
I've had friends who got pregnant at 14. It happens. And nobody had a clue that anything was going on.
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.
