have you checked Virgin Mobile? I

Posted By: flcmt on 2009-02-25
In Reply to: Can anyone recommend a cell phone - sm - Cellular impaired in VA

use them, but don't use the cell phone often so just pay the $10 a month and my unused time goes forward. They've got pay as you go and monthly plans. I've never had any problems with them.

Virgin mobile
We're like you - very rarely use our phones.  You pay by the minute, and the minutes expire in 90 days.  You can register your credit card with them, and they'll put $15 on your phone every 90 days.  You buy your phones (we have four!), and just add minutes as you need them.  Plus, they don't go away if you don't use them.  I didn't like Tracfone because the smallest amount of money you can put on is $40, and I think it expires in 60 days.  Anyway, check out virginmobileusa.com
Virgin Mobile, too...sm

This is what I use (rarely).  Just buying 20 minutes every 3 months, or 10 minutes every month(?), keeps the account current.  You do not lose the old minutes.  There are some other plans, too, so if interested, you might want to check out Virgin Mobile's website.  HTH. 


Virgin Mobile also has a plan like TracPhone... sm
Virgin Mobile has several plans for prepaid phones - as well as monthly rates. I bought the phone for $30 and I have a $6.99 a month plan where I get 10 cents a minute calls. Of course, you have to put some $$ on there as well as the $6.99 a month for the minutes you use, but there are other phones you can choose, too, if you want phones with bells and whistles. The $30 phone also has lots of little frills and a flashlight feature like the TracPhone. I had a TracPhone a long time ago and it didn't receive as well as the Virgin Mobile does. Either one of these providers would get you what you need for emergency use, though, at reasonable rates. Hope this helps. :))
yeah. she checked in and checked out the same day--sm
said it was not for her.
I'm a virgin, help a first timer out ..

BLACK FRIDAY Shopper's!!!!


Ive NEVER in my life shopped on Black Friday, it used to be of no interest, then it got interesting for awhile, but DH hated the idea and I dont shop without him unless I absolutely have to and/or dying to get out, and now the interest is back with DH on my side! So I am excited, or should I be frightened, is it a true mad house?


I need some tips and info. Do you have any tips for a 1st Timer??


What time do you get at the store? Do you have to get a coupon or something to be allowed IN? If so, where do you get these coupons?


What time do stores typically open? What times do they take the sale prices down, is it usually an all day thing, or an end at lunch type of thing?


And most important of all. I am a fan of the old fashioned way..... newspaper ads to see who has what deal. Where do you get this? Does it come out THIS Weekend or on Thanksgiving Day??


Thanks so much!!!!


If you whistle, it makes the Virgin Mary Cry
(I've had worse things come out of my mouth.)
For a no-brainer movie, 40-year-old Virgin...
and I love all the old movies on TCM, like Mildred Pierce, Postman Always Rings Twice, etc., mostly anything from the 1930s to 1950s. Also love all mob movies, especially Goodfellas.
Remain a virgin & you don't have to explain to your kids later in life
why their birth certificate doesn't match your marriage certificate. Do the math!
mobile
The basement is finished and I like it, but sometimes it would be fun to go out on the porch? Anybody have a mobile set up? How would you do that? I would love to know.
I have a mobile set up
but it is really inconvenient so I only use it when I am out of town really. I did go outside a few days over the summer and it was nice but kind of a pain to set up and take down so I didn't do it often.

I have thought of getting a desk on wheels from Staples but we don't have the extra $100 with xmas and all.
Check to see if T-Mobile will let you pay

T-Mobile Prepay
T-mobile prepay is about the chespest one out there.  Pay $100.00 and get 1,000 minutes and that is good for one year.  After the 1,000 minutes are up to keep the number it will cost you ten dollars a year (you get 30 minutes of phone time added to your balance), or you can buy increments from 10-100 dollars.  My husband uses the T-mobile and I pay about 100 a year for his phone.  I have my t-mobile and pay 10.00 a year because i rarely use my phone.  My home phone through ATT is 15.00 a month because I called them and told them I could not afford my 25.00 a month bill and they reduced it.  All incoming calls come through my home phone.  Tracfone is good, but is a bit more expensive to maintain than the T-mobile if the phone use is not a big issue. 
I was in British Virgin Islands last week and it was 5.78 on one island we visited. Nmsg.

Big bunch of lies...look at all the inconsistencies in ages/virgin when married 14yrs ago, but has a
Please see a psychiatrist. You are obviously seeking attention by posting lies.

Furthermore, you said he was your prince charming...then you said he talks like he is retarded and that people have asked you if he is retarded. What was so 'princey' about a man who sounds like a retard and has psoriasis all over his body. Why would you have married him in the first place?

How does a woman who was a virgin almost 14 years ago end up with a child who is already 14?

You make it seem as though you are always without food but you are "extremely overweight" after having what you described to be a perfect body 14 years ago. How did that happen?
Redecorating a mobile home

Anyone have any suggestions, tips, resources, etc. for redecorating a late 60's vintage 12x60 singlewide mobile? Recently bought it as an inexpensive getaway in Baja and looking to spruce it up without spending a ton of money.


Haven't pulled up the dirty old 'gold shag' carpet yet to see what's underneath, but if there's wood, am thinking of doing a painted faux finish on the floor to look like terra cotta tile. Would also like to cut thru the wall dividing the kitchen and living room to make a bar, but unsure how much of the interior walls on a mobile are actually load-bearing.


Even with a mobile home---not *trailer*..sm
you still have to make your own repairs, as you have purchased the house and it is yours, unless you rent one somewhere, and good luck with that! You also still have to upkeep the lot you are sitting on. You pay a *lot fee* but you are basically renting it. You do the lawn, bushes etc. Mostly you still pay for your own water, and utilities. sometimes garbage pickup is included in the lot fee, but not always. Yes, they have some really nice ones these days, but a lot of insurance companies will not insure the single wides, only the double wides. there is a lot to consider even with a mobile home. Condo's are expensive, unless you rent. There again, if you decide to move, they depreciate in value and you have to sell it instead of rent it out. There are down sides to everything, and very few upsides. good luck with your decision.
DH has Garmin mobile on his cell phone - sm
In my opinion, this is the best service he has ever gotten.  We had the Garmin on going through Atlanta at 7:30 a.m. (traffic nightmare), and the Garmin got us through in record time by avoiding the crowded areas.  It took us a little while to figure out the lady's voice was saying "follow route" and not "turn around" and to figure out she was saying "recalculating" when we over-shot our exits (which is really great about this service...it follows you around and corrects when you screw up). 
However, mobile homes & trailers DO have a tendency to

T-Mobile, approx. $60/month for family plan
We have 2 phones with 700 minutes, unlimited mobile to mobile, unlimited evenings and weekends. We don't do the text messaging stuff, so don't know how much that would cost to add on.
Here is another unlikey winner. A mobile phone salesman. sm
This guy will knock your socks off also. He is from the Britain's Got Talent.

Go get yourself checked out!

I'm only 34 and I had the darned same symptoms...everything hurt--fingers, arms, hands, jaw, neck, back, butt, even my hair, I swear!   I have a very high pain threshold too, but the constant aching and inability to get out of bed without feeling like I was just run over by a steam roller was just too much to take.  I think I let it go for about 2 years before calling for an appointment, thinking I could just work around the pain.


The thing that finally sent me to the doc's was that even exercising and walking didn't help with the pain, and it got to a point where it hurt too much to even do that.


Turns out I could have some form of connective tissue disorder, kinda like lupus but not.  My nurse gave me a prescription for simple naproxen and wow, what a difference.  I took it twice daily for the first week and I only need to take it every now and again.  I've totally kicked myself in the butt for not doing something about it sooner, but well, you know how that goes.


So, go get yourself checked out for pity's sake


 


you could also get her checked --sm
for feline diabetes, as not using the litter box is also a sign of this, along with recurrent uti's and eventually kidney failure. My vet says that feline diabetes has increased significantly over the past few years.
He obviously needs to get this checked out - sm
by the doctor, it may be time that he does need the help of some medication. Get him to his doctor pronto before it gets any worse.
Have you ever checked out
different lipstick brands and get disgusted when it takes 7 turns to get the lipstick out where you can use it? That's what I've noticed about some of the more expensive brands. If they turned quicker like Revlon I might have bought them. :o} (I don't remember if Estee Lauder is one of those).

Not sure if I'm lazy or just a stickler for efficiency. Ha!
Eww, I would have that checked
by a doctor to be on the safe side. Especially considering the bumps you said you can see on his eyeball.. that can't be good.
I checked this out and I think it looks
fascinating. My daughter was a bit grossed out. My son hasn't seen the video yet but he wants to go into medicine and I know when he see the video he will love it. My daughter and I are going to see Legally Blond the musical while hubby and son are going to see Blue Man Group (all 4 of us will see The Lion King). Maybe just a little mother/son bonding time at Bodies will be just the thing.
Get it checked.
My husband broke his at 18. When he was 30, he had to get angioplasty because he had 2 stenoses of subclavian. They are not sure if it was related to this injury or not. Still has weak/to absent pulse at left wrist.
Just checked it out !! So much fun...nm

Of course, this is after you have her checked out by your vet - nm
:-)
I would get it checked out.
Even without more symptoms I would urge him to get in to his regular doctor to get looked at. I have heard of people being nauseated, sweaty, short of breath with the pain of a heart attack but I also think it can be an individual thing and different with everyone.
I don't know but I would have him get it checked nm

You'd better get checked out.
I guess I've transcribed way too many neurology reports, but if I were you I'd get it checked out with possible an MRI of the brain.  Seriously, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Get it checked
To help you not worry. I had a lump once in the groin and it was because of a urinary tract infection. Although it sounds like yours is related to the bug bite. Better safe than sorry, I would just have the doc look at it.
Have you checked into how big she will get and
how long she will live? That seems like potentially quite an investment! lol
Checked them out, could not find
the higher price which I had to use, only the lower priced gas and then not at the Atlanta station I use which is south out of the city proper.
Just checked again and the post she
made on this very tired subjectg was, indeed today. She just responded to a comment made by my friend two days ago. I was sure of what I was saying, or I would have never said anymore about it.
I would get it checked since it is suddenly different and sm)
in just one eye. I have them too but I would get it checked if it was like yours. Just to be safe. Sorry for any typos - no contacts in yet this morning
Checked on divorcenet.com

Thanks to all who replied.  I stumbled on above website and it said no coverage for ex-spouses.  I really think this is some type of delaying tactic on his part--"have to wait for open season, etc," or get her to agree to take less child support even.  He changed jobs and had to submit the withholding order.  After 2 months, my daughter called and found out they did not have the paperwork for withholding.  She immediately sent the order.  He declared he had taken care of that.  He knew the child support was not coming out and he's still responsible for it.  Just don't trust him at all--


Good point about being independent.  Just so hard to do it all on her own.  Also had not thought about his having access to her health info.  Thanks again.


Get your thyroid checked.
x
Have you had thyroid checked?
It could be from a variety of things, but you might want to have your thyroid hormone levels checked.

Check out this website before you do, because many doctors aren't up on it they way they should be:

http://thyroid.about.com/
I might go get it checked, just in case (sm)
With all the pool infections and such going around...has he been swimming in a public pool lately?
Have you checked your thyroid?
Also read up on it, as the numbers many doctors use as the normal range really isn't accurate.
Tonya, perhaps you should be checked sm
Tell the doc or get a diabetes test from the drug store. My MIL did this and had a sugar problem which was solved with diet. I hope not, but save yourself some worry; caught early, most problems can be solved with diet alone.
Get checked out ASAP
It might not be serious but no sense in taking any chances. Definitely don't think it would have anything to do with vision or viewing monitor for any length of time ... more of a neuromuscular thing.

Let us know how you come out. We are thinking of you!
Have you had your thyroid checked?
I have hypothyroidism and before it was diagnosed was absolutely freezing, sounds like what you describe, could not get warm. That would be where I would start because being cold all the time is 1 of the symptoms. In the meantime, do as I did. Got a heated throw and that can be used around your shoulders, over the legs, throw on the bed to heat your covers, so glad I invested in one.
I would have her checked by an endocrinologist
to evaluate precocious puberty. I've also read that hormones from meat & dairy can prompt this, but there are cases where there is something structural going on, & I would want to have this ruled out.
If you hit your head, get it checked out

I think chances are good we'll find that Billy had a hemorrhage, much like Natasha Richardson.  I just lost an older cousin to this very same syndrome last weekend.  He fell and hit his head, but refused to go the doctor and died two days later. 


Head injuries are nothing to mess around with, even if they seem benign at first.


Anyone move from a single family home to mobile home? sm

I own and live in a house in a midwest city in a bad neighborhood (wasn't that bad 11 years ago).  I spent the day waiting for the plumber to come and jackhammer the foundation (slab house, no basement) to find a leaky pipe that is flooding my DD's bedroom. Last week, it was the electrician with quotes for costly repairs.


In the meantime, I've really been thinking about selling out and moving into a mobile home.  Has anyone done this before?  Is a mobile home in a decent park less of a hassle than a regular house?  I'm so tired of cutting the grass and spending $$ to fix things and tired of old flooring and cabinets, etc., that are just too costly to replace.  I'm single with no man to do these things for me and I can't afford a mortgage on a newer house in a good neighborhood.  Some of the pictures I've seen of the mobile homes look really nice and modern on the inside. 


Any advice and comments appreciated.  Thanks!


Thanks for the info. I checked out the site, however,
I don't see the price listed.  Care to share?  The one that requires a script, Lidoderm, is in the $200 range.
Thanks! :) I checked out Foot Locker SM

and saw some really good deals on shoes.  Also, Macy's is having a 1-day sale tomorrow, and I saw a Nike Hoodie for 19.99!  I've been carusing all the websites today!  (Abercrombie and Fitch, Old Navy, Macy's, Kohl's, Foot Locker, American Eagle, and E-Bay.)  Eeeek!!  I'm not getting much work done today.  Oh well!  Hehehehe.  I'm going to have so much fun with this.


Again, thank you to all of you...you've been such a big help.


Big hugs,


Chickadee


I don't blame you. Have you checked zillow.com
or had an appraisal lately?  Not that it matters - but would be something to shove at them if they get pushy - unless of course it comes in lower than you want.  If you don't NEED to sell - hang on to it if at all possible.  We sold our land 5 years ago and wish we would have held onto it - it almost never depreciates!!  Best of luck to ya
