I'm single, 44 and have 2 grandkids (my girls are 21, 24 and 26) - one more grandchild on the way! And I start training tomorrow nite to become a foster parent  ... I told my kids it's either a puppy or a baby, so we settled on foster parenting lol... I'm glad I had my kids early, it gave me a chance to grow up with them if you would and they couldn't pull any shenanigans... made it a lot easier for me to relate to what they were going thru and know what they were up to haha... my mom was clueless due to her being 36 years older than me... it was really rough raising 3 girls by myself - especially the 2 oldest that were so close in age - it was the hormone house from hell, but I would do it all over again if i could in a heartbeat!

Heck yeah!
My daughter is a few months younger than Celine's son. She has her hair buzzed by her request. (I use the 3/4 inch buzzer guide.) She is tops of her class, very respectful, and loves to help out her teacher in class. She is well behaved, but she does pick on her little sisters sometimes like any kid. She's a really good kid. When we go to the nursing home to visit my husband (he's a nurse), the residents typically assume she's a boy because of her hair, which annoys her. Otherwise she is as girly as can be, much girlier than her mom with long hair!
I figure it's just hair--who cares as long as the child can handle the hair issues? Eventually there will be much bigger battles to be fought than the length of hair.
Go Celine!
Heck yeah I'd love a gift certificate to Tractor Supply!
I found a really neat gift there for a horse lover thats only $50. It's a (fake) bush that is cut like a horse and has Christmas lights on it. Very cool (at least I thought so!)
Maybe a personalized saddle pad? You could get someone to embroider his name (or his horses name) on it.
Heck yes!

What the heck is it????

Been there - heck, there now!...
Same thing at my house - if i'm the least little sick, husband asks if I need to go to the hospital. If I say I don't, then by golly I should be well enough to keep working, cleaning, taking care of him and the kids, etc. I feel your pain! :(
Heck, ask him. Maybe you can get some $ from

How the heck
Call me dumb but I have to ask before I try this. You put the dandruff shampoo on your face? and is this a 3-step process, rinsing between, or you put it all on together? How often do you do this once a week, a month?
What the heck?
Physical ramifications? Which ones are those? You all start on the biggest bunch of getting shrinks for this, ramifications for a piece of skin cut off as a child, no wonder kids now days are a bunch of wimps. The parents are making them like that. No man or boy that I have ever known has had to go into therapy because of a circumcision. Bunch of crock.
No, what they heck are they thinking?

What the heck does your post have anything at all
to do with my husband's health??? Obviously you've posted in the wrong area!!
Romey! How the heck are ya?!
Ham was in the cam all day today...it's about 45 degrees out and she has been out there all day is turning BRIGHT pink! I'm actually worried she's going to burn, but she insists on lying out there and soaking in the rays. Can't say I blame her one bit. If I could, I'd be moving this 'puter thing outside and doing my work out there today! It was 10 degrees out there this morning and overnight and we have had nothing but snow and ice for ages it seems...such a welcome sight that sunshine is!
Well, after a week in the Mirra chair, I sat in this Aeron and wow--what a difference. I actually like it better than the Mirra! The seat is bigger, and with a caboose as big as mine, that makes a huge difference. This is a well-used demo model though and it kinda tips to the left, but I think if I am gonna spring the bucks, I'm gonna do it on this style. My husband now has the Mirra chair for a week and as soon as he sat in that one he said, "Oh yuck...can I have that other one back now?"
I haven't talked to the rep guy yet..just got his voicemail, but when he shows up next week to take these chairs back I will most definitely ask that question for you, as I'd like to know the answer too!
Glad your friend enjoyed seeing piggy. Just WAIT until mud season (which hopefully is only a few more weeks away)...she will be out there all the time and in her absolute glory! Her favorite game is to tip over the water trough and make more mud...that's when you see me, all wild haired and disheveled, running out there to turn it upright and refill it with H20. It usually goes badly because she dumps it as it's filling and I can't do squatola about it. I may be big, but she's waaaay bigger and I think if we were to get into a fight, well, she'd win hooves down.
HECK NO!! I can eat what i want, drink what i want
it's time to eat all the cheesburgers and milkshakes I want!!! I'm looking forward to old age :)
Can I guess, heck yes, I saw her
Yes, it is a her, not the him that is still waiting but she could not stop that horrible slobbering, crying crap. I appreciate the fact she can sing but do we now have to put up with all that stuff that goes along with it. I would rather have a low key as good a singer without all that drama. Oh, well, the judges' choice.
I bet you thought what the heck! ...nm

You have one heck of a memory...sm
I can't even remember what my screen name was! I do remember the story about mysterious rocks in the yard, though.  Some of those stories were hysterical. Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. Remember how weird things turned during the guess-the-item/person contests?
What the heck does CRCT stand for?
I live in Virginia and they take SOLs here. My daughter will have to take it for the first time this year, but I've heard that if they don't pass the SOL test then they don't move on to the next grade!! I really hope this isn't true, it's a LOT of pressure.
Heck no sounds like you can't tell the difference.

Ah heck, she just made you a cake
and didn’t want to tell you any different.
new grads--how in the heck to they make any
I went to a brick and mortar college for my year long MT educational course which included a 225 hour preceptorship at a local clinic. I obtained a job at a local hospital and was STILL looking up stuff and asking for help from the gals I worked with. I think it's incredibly nieve for anyone to think they can take a correspondence course and jump right in to making any money at this. Things like peau d’ orange and "full stop", they don't teach you that in school, you need hands on for a while.
Mine sure as heck did - he became a 'she'.
Aw heck, I'm a total hick and even I know to call...
on an RSVP to let them know that they can count me in or out. It just seems like one of those common courtesy things...at least call whoever to let them know you got the invite for sure and it wasn't lost in the mail.
Heck no! 40 is a great age- you know enough not to mess around but you don't have Alzheimer's
How the heck do some of these people have money for all the surgeries? NM

And what the heck is "mechanically separated chicken"?? nm

Heck no! Finally had to get a fake one due to hub's allergies, but it is a beauty once it's up

To Heck With Ole Santa Clause - Loretta Lynn
Ay-Ay-Ay it's Christmas and I don't know what to do -- Ay-ay-ay It's Christmas and I don't have a gift for you. My kids especially love it! They sing it to me and in response I sing to them "I'm Getting Nothing for Christmas" -- except changed to "You're Getting Nothing for Christmas."
If anything irks the heck out of me, it is when "single mother" is mentioned as to
why someone would be more entitled to get something. What it means to me is she should wait for kids until maybe she can afford them and not before. Being single does not entitle. Dang, I know welfare folks who feel about the same entitlement and they use the welfare system and have gotten plenty, section 8, food stamps and just because something free, they would wait hours in line to get a freebie. I know 1 lady, previously married, 2 kids, got welfare, food stamps and yet living with a guy who had a city job making good money. Sorry but I feel different about food stamps because I have seen so much abuse go on and definitely hate the fact when someone brings up "single" mother meaning they should get more just because they did not think ahead about feeding extra mouths.
Adam and Eve, to tell them to stay the heck away from the forbidden tree!!! sm
Tell me we wouldn't be in better shape just hanging in the Garden of Eden??? (When my daughter was little, she used to wish she had a time machine so she could go back).
Heck no!! In fact just bought a GMC Yukon Denali to haul the family around in for trips.

yeah, yeah - Was/still am a Sam Cooke fan...
have a series of his albums (Sam's) and my older sister was into Jackie Wilson (he died very young)......never will be anything like Motown was..........*nods*......
Yeah!
I'm so glad to hear she's improving. :-)
yeah
i tell ya it is the account, the others mt's complain about it too. i understand all the companies have their good and bad, but i have no idea who i should be looking at for rad work and who i should stay away from. there are always gonna be disgruntled exemployee. i would just like some unbiased opinions on who to look at and who to stay away from!
Oh yeah she was
She may not have had a choice in keeping that boy for awhile. This woman didn't even do a good job at acting like she was sad at her daughter's death. If Anna hated her mother at the time, she's perfectly entitled to. You don't have to love your mother just because shes your mother, just because its the right thing to do. Unfortunately they were not able to mend their differences and give forgiveness before her death. The moment was what it was, at the time she hated her so I believe her wishes should be respected.
Yeah!
I'm glad you did it. I hope things improve for the kids.
yeah, i just went to the doc sm
it was a new patient visit. i thought i'd try a different doc, but i like my old doc better. i didn't talk to him about being tired alot. i did talk about my leg. i have vericose veins in my left leg that give me problems. i'm only 35, but feel old! ha! my leg will swell a little, is warm to the touch and aches almost every day. you sound like you do really good! i wish i could get myself on a good schedule so i can at least walk every day. my 5 y/o will be starting kindergarten in the fall, both my kids will be gone all day so i hope to get on a better schedule than what i'm on now. my 5 y/o now goes to preschool three days a week and i take him and pick him up, takes time away from my work, so then i sit here and try to stay caught up on my work. my bp runs ok i guess. when i went to the doc on wednesday, it was 118/??? 80 something i think. what is considered low??
thanks for your input!
Oh yeah!
Yeah, but if she is saying
she forgot it at home, then it can't be true. She would remember eventually if it is sitting there at home. I don't know what I would do, guess it depends on your relationship with her. As for me and my sister-in-law, I would simply say don't lie to the poor child, just tell him you didn't have the money to buy him anything and you're sorry!
Yeah, tell me
about it! They are nasty! That's why I would actualy like to take my kids to a nice beach this year!
YEAH RIGHT!
You watch he will turn around and sue! I glad they refused service. He is so arogant!
Yeah, and they will tell you that they
will accept a settlement, and take a lesser amount as a payment in full, but what they don't tell you unless you pin them down on the phone is that they will put that on your credit report, that it was settled for less than the full payment.
Yeah me!
Miss Lily's mom here. I went to the vet today to go over Lily's lab work. We had her tested for every allergen known to man and she's allergic to mites off the chart basically. I also brought my brother's dog in since she has a lipoma the size of a softball that I want removed. Anyhoo, the vet was talking about how hard it is to find good help with the animal for the weekends and how hard it is to truly tell if someone will be good with the animals or not until they get in there. I told her I was looking for something besides transcription to do part time, so she gave me a job. :-) It's mostly cleaning but I'll get give the weekend animals their meds and treatments and do some filing and typing...all that fun stuff. I didn't even ask what she paid, as I'm sure it isn't much but it will be a nice change of pace. Plus I get free vet care. :-)
yeah....
it's called YMCA.
Oh yeah, here we go...
I can sure sympathize with you here. My mother is going through same thing. I have 5 siblings, there are(were) 4 girls 2 boys. My next to oldest sister was in an auto accident 12 years ago. She was one of those champagne on a beer budget and just thought she was better. She and the younger of 2 boys were like peas in a pod. Very close. She was in a vegetative state after the accident. My brother was in charge of her SSI money and such. He would bring my mother money every 2 years. Well at 5 years he just quit speaking to everyone, even his child. Have not seen or heard from him in 7 years. Why would you just quit speaking to your family? No one has done anything to him. He dated a friend of mine one time and told her he was from Canada and that he had a different father than us and that was adopted and not to ever let my baby sister know because she would be devastated. Well ???. He had/has this fixation with Canada. He is not from Canada. He even looks like my father so it is obvious. No reason for him to be ashamed. We are not well off but we are certainly not lacking and we are all hard workers. He has just disappeared. My mother tried to kill herself when she was pregnant with him because of other reasons, but blames herself for him being this way. She did not harm her pregnancy, just believes in things coming full circle. Well sister that was in accident passed away back in Nov. This brother does not know that we are aware of. Older sister has a pill addiction (I’ve told this story on here before, sorry.).
At any rate she allowed my mother, who was taking care of her recently after some surgery, to see her messed up on some pills. Mother and I did a mini intervention back in April, have not heard from or seen sister since. Mother used to speak to her every day.
I just saw her today after going by to pick up something she had of my mothers. She asked how mom was doing, I said fine and probably better if you would call her and talk to her. Her response was…”ell the phone works both ways. She could call me.” I said, yes your right it does work both ways and you were in the way so you pick up the phone and apologize. Her response, “Well she’s the mother she should know better.” This girl is 50 years old, how childish and irresponsible is that. I feel she owes an apology and my mother said, which is true, what good is it if she does not mean it. She just does not want to see her end up a vegetable like my sister. So she feels now she has lost 3 children. My mother is 70y/o and does not need this stress.
You don’t either. You just have to reach a point that you must move on with your life. My mother dwells on this and how do you just walk away? Makes me so angry. Told sister that our little sister would be coming in from Michigan (darn near canada! HMMMM ..joking) in July and told her when and that we were planning to spread sister’s ashes then. “Well we’re going on vacation that week”. Well fine, I say let them go. If she can sleep at night and the drugs are more important than her family, I say so be it. I’ve been really freaking about trying to find my brother in the last few months. Was told that if I could find SSN I could check with SSD and they would tell me who paid taxes in last on him. For all we know he could be dead somewhere but how do you find someone who obviously does not want to be found! What are they thinking!
The way my mother feels is that people like that that don’t even care for their own flesh and blood cannot care for anyone, much less themselves. They did not mind asking for money and a place to live everything they needed it and she always gave to them.
Oh, yeah sm
That's the first place I feel it. Do whatever you can to reduce the stress and if that doesn't work, see your doctor.
Of course, I am good at giving advice, but I haven't seen a doctor about my stomach problems.
Yeah let me know - thanks (nm)

Yeah, my cat. Should have kept the cat.
Yeah, what is it about
yard sale buyers who think they can dictate what time an individual seller has to be open for "business." ? If I want to start at 9:00, then my sale is only for those shopping after 9:00 - don't be knocking on my door. @@
Yeah, I know-don't
rag on me. He was really sick a couple of years ago with a fever of 105 and I didn't want him upstairs. I wanted him downstairs with me so I could check on him all night and keep track of his temperature. Well, he has never gone back upstairs. His sister scared him up there and he is too scared to sleep up there. We are planning on fixing up his room soon and get him a new bed and hopefully, that will help. What is so unhealthy about it?
yeah, me too . . . nm
xx
Yeah, I know just how that is sm
Now, if I could only find my camera..... LOL. It's been underneath something for about 2 weeks now. Bet it shows up when I move all the Christmas presents.
Yeah (sm)
Why can't we get someone in there who is like a regular Joe or Jane like I know--"Yeah, I'm sort of religious. You know, I go to church on Christmas and Easter if the kids haven't eaten 15 pounds of sugar already. Otherwise, I usually sleep in a bit and get ready to watch the Nascar race."
I'm not dissing religion by any means--that's not the intent of my post. I'm just interested that all the candidates always profess that they are so religious when it's time to pander for votes. Sure, I believe some of them are religious, but I have a hard time believing that they all are so religious as they want us to believe.
The best thing I think I heard Ron Paul say (and I'm no Ron Paul fan) was something to the effect of how unfortunate it would be if Mitt Romney (who I am not a fan of either) or anyone else was not elected simply because of religion. I couldn't agree more.
