the orgasmic stuff, and think that is probably why i could take it or leave it. I agonized over this for awhile, saw counselors (a joke), and tried all kinds of things said to 'help', but they didn't. Like stated above, i aim to please my partner, and appreciate all the other things that encompass a marriage, and quit worrying about what apparently isn't meant to be for me.

and never with a female did I doubt myself- if my husband/partner wanted to be with same sex, then I would not take 1 step to stand in his way. I think the poster is up against much more than she thinks. I do not think most guys are that "curious" to spend that much money on gay lines, chat lines with guys and such. Getting some gay books would be much less expensive- but then I think he is probably into wanting to hook up with guys, not just looking.
What I have experienced in that past -
I agree with the other poster. That money is really *good faith money.* The buyer puts that money up in order to show you they want the house and for you to hold it for them until closing. You will not see any money of any kind until closing. If the deal falls through you can often collect that money or a portion of it. You really need to keep in close contact with your real estate agent. After all, they are getting paid mighty well to sell your home! :-)
If you've never experienced it,
of course you'll never understand it. I used to be a weight snob, too. Payback stinks. Age, hormones, sedentary job, lack of sleep, stress, childbirth, and quitting smoking are all weight gain triggers.
We don't even eat fast food, fried foods, fattening foods or keep junk food in the house. Lack of exercise is probably the biggest factor.
FWIW, I have a friend who went from overweight to anorexic. It's not pretty. She looks like an emaciated skeleton. She has no energy to do anything except lay down on the couch watching TV. It's only a matter of time before she dies. They've taken her to doctors and the hospital. They tried to have her committed and make her eat. She refuses all medical care and food. Be careful what you wish for. She's been wasting away on her couch for two years now, unable to clean her house or do anything. She has to have people help her bathe and go to the bathroom. It's a lousy way to die. She's only hurting those people around her.
Curious if anyone has experienced this
or opinions on what it may be. My daughter every now and then, this has been going on for about 6 months, will get hot, hands tingling, heart beating fast, and really nauseated. It seems to only happen late at night and only occasionally. She's 18 and refuses to go to the doctor. She has thrown up from it once or twice, but then is fine soon after. It usually doesn't last very long. Usually we can get her cold enough, etc., that she doesn't throw up. I wonder if it's hormones or anxiety or what. She's not really under a lot of stress right now, so even though it sounds a lot like anxiety other than the vomiting, I just don't think that's it. Has anyone heard of anything like this before? (And no she's not pregnant.)
Has anyone experienced this type of ear problem?
Hi all!
I woke up this morning, and I have a "drumming, vibrating" sound in my left ear, but only when I tip my head down to the side. When my head is held straight, there is no sound at all! I have not had a cold, nor have I been congested. I am debating calling my PCP as it really doesn't bother me that much and there is no pain whatsoever; however, I haven't started transcribing for the day, and maybe it will bother me then?!? I have been trying to do some research on the Internet, and I have come across everything from perforated eardrums to bugs in my ear!! I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before I start to panic?!?
TIA!
Shingles - most painful thing I have experienced
Have had several outbreaks. First one ever was on back, last two to three have been on my inner thigh. The first two times on my thigh had an actual breakout and it was so painful I expected when I looked down that there should be this large gaping hole there and all that was present were these pesky little red spots. It always starts out like a band is too tight and my skin is burning and then the red spots would appear. Last year I only had the burning pain and no actual outbreak. I can tell when it is coming though as I get very, very tired and can fall asleep at anytime. Have tried the medication for it but hated taking just to suppress something that only came every 2 to 4 years. They did come more often when I was going through my divorce and financial problems but have not had a breakout or symptoms for over 2 years. But again, it is like having an open sore on your skin and one of the most painful thing I have experienced -- above my broken knee cap, broken leg/ankle, ovarian cysts, kidney stones. Sorry if this is your case. But I do not have the residual neuralgia all the time just for a couple of weeks after the symptoms have gone.
I hadVonage & experienced choppy & dropped calls. They are much like AOL
and if you do cancel you have to pay a hefty cancellation fee. Never again.
I haven't done much yet...
I pulled out some flowers that didn't make it to the end of the summer, but some of my annuals look better now than they did earlier so I hate to pull them. We haven't had a frost yet, so most of my summer stuff looks great. Once we have a frost, I will pull the annuals and plant my bulbs.
I am in Central PA, so yes the leaves are starting to turn. They look so pretty. Where are you? Your pepper plant sounded interesting. What kind of weather, growing zone do they like?
I haven't been through this, but...
A good rule of thumb in life is to (1) not worry about things for which you don't have all the information, and (2) not worry about things over which you have no control. You don't have all the information necessary at this point and you definitely don't have control over what's going on, so worrying is absolutely unproductive and is added stress that your baby doesn't need right now.
I wish the best for you. Now go relax and think good thoughts!
I haven't used one myself, but...sm
my parents and sister have had excellent results with theirs. They both have big, strong dogs - a black lab and a border collie mixed with something big and long-legged - and they both trained very quickly and easily.
We haven't seen her yet but....sm
if you know of a weekend day in the future that you'd like to go we might could meet you there. I have a zoo membership and can get 1 adult and up to 2 additional kids in for no extra charge. E-mail me if you're interested.
I haven't been there
personally but have a friend who visits it regularly. For her 13th birthday instead of getting presents for herself, she asked the girls she invited to bring a gift for an animal and then spent her birthday up there at the shelter playing with the animals.
I only have the one child, also, but a daughter, so I know the feeling of wanting to get that perfect gift for your "one and only." She is four and wants everything, so I guess that makes it a little easier, since I can buy anything and it will be something that she wanted.
Your son is going to be SO excited! What a good mommy you are.
haven't been there
but just wanted to wish you well. It sounds like you are making the right decision. My husband's father is an alcoholic and from what I have heard (we have talked about it a lot) it is not pleasant for kids. You are making the right decision for them. My MIL did not do the same for her kids but my husband still wishes she had.
His father is still an alcoholic and now we face the difficult decision with his influence on our children. We make the tough decisions that we feel are best for our kids. It's our job as parents and we know it is the right thing to do, despite what others within the family may say, namely the alcoholic FIL and MIL who still stands by his side and takes the abuse.
but I have this recipe in my "To Try" files. If the filets are really thin, I would grill them on an oiled sheet of aluminum foil.
Ingredients 2 pounds flounder fish fillets 1/2 cup olive oil 1/4 cup lemon juice 2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
Directions Arrange fish on a well-oiled grill. Combine remaining ingredients and baste fish. Grill, turning and basting occasionally, for 10 minutes per inch of thickness or until fish is flaky and no longer translucent in the center.
Haven't you ever said something and after you said it you realized it didn't come out the way you meant it to and you wished you had never said it. Men act first and think later most of the time. My son is always teasing his wife, she wants to become a nurse practitioner and he always says he is going to retire when she gets her NP license. He is kidding but if she was really touchy about it she would get mad. He is an electrical contractor and makes alot of money but he still says he is going to retire and let her support him.
Since this is a new relationship for you I would back off a little bit on paying for things. Think of free stuff to do and spend more time with him getting to know him. If he is looking for someone to pay the way he will be on his way and you will have your answer.
Keeping the crate in the family area during the day and your bedroom at night is very important for a puppy. Being alone is distressing, and they don't learn as well when they are stressed about that.
have seen the ads for his show on HGTV. He looks fun. Like you would want to invite him over to a party at your house, even if he couldn't decorate for you!!
Don't know about what he does with silk but whatever it is, I bet it is snappy!!!
This website is free and is a tool used to help keep track of your calorie/fat/carb intake.
I have limited myself to 1000-1200 calories a day. I was really hungry for the first couple of days, but then I adjusted. Now, I am not hungry. If you go less than 1000 calories you won't lose any weight. I started about 2 mos ago and I just hit the 20-pound mark today. I don't have time to exercise. I work full time and have 2 small children. Now that it is nice, we walk across the street to the park a couple times a week, which doesn't really count 'cause it isn't "strenuous" at all. Just being more active has helped me. Plus I feel better about myself.
I have a long way to go, but I am off to a great start! Good Luck!!!
I've had her for 5+ years now and have no clue what she even looks like! No matter where I've lived, I always ask to see the NP, but that's my choice. I personally prefer seeing NPs, as I think they spend a lot more time with the patient and aren't as harried. Plus, she's a fatty and I don't feel so bad about myself when I see her and I'm all nudie-toonie! How bad is that?!
Right now I am sort of in a scare too. They found a lump in my left breast. Next step is biopsy since ultrasound and mammo were inconclusive. I have been reading everything I possibly can about breast cancer - and I'm worried, too!
Keep us informed. I know you are going to be just fine!
Haven't had cats in a while, but
what I learned was that the most likely thing is a UTI. The cat thinks the pain with urination can be escaped by finding another place to do it.
Or there has been a change in the litter and the cat doesn't like how it feels on the feet or smells.
Or there has been some big change that has rattled the cat, such as a new pet introduced or you moved or I suppose noisy construction, or something major like that.
A cat behaviorist said if infection has been ruled out, the best thing was to offer several litter boxes with different litters and see what the cat likes.
(Cats always want us to remember they are royalty and expect life to quietly revolve around them, lol).
What were the Lyme symptoms in your 4-year-old?
I haven't regretted it one bit
I still spot for a day or so, nothing like before though. My only regret is not having had it done sooner and getting so anemic that I had to have IV iron infusions for 5 weeks...go for it, you won't regret it! Good luck!
I haven't watched it, but
I believe it's the real thing. I watch a lot of reality shows, but this one definitely didn't interest me.
Put a lid on the cage if you haven't already - sm
We have 2 hamsters, and the cat just sits on the kitchen table and watches them (they are on a little table in the kitchen). Provides her with hours of enjoyment!
Haven't heard of that but
you might want to have thyroid and ferritin checked. I actually went to a derm doc for same thing, and he said it's been his experience that a lot of women with hair problem have low ferritin. Mine was borderline-low, so started taking vitamin with a a little iron in it. I probably haven't been getting enough iron in diet and stopped taking iron many years ago. But I think mine is probably a combination of things, since I'm a lot older than you and all the menopause things figured in there too. My GYN PA, before the derm doc, basically said yeah, you're old with no estrogen left, think back to when your hair was in its best shape. Yeah, I remember that when I was pregnant, but kind of patronizing attitude there with no help. Yeah, I know I'm old, okay? Mmm. I haven't had that in years (sm)
I think I had it at a church potluck. I need to make it, I bet my oldest son would love it.
I haven't watched N/T yet
Unfortunately I've got a nasty cold and went to bed really early last night. I'm going to watch it this afternoon. I heard there were major cliffhangers.
I haven't been where you are but wowsers...
I would've had a breakdown simply between the bird cage falling down and the computer breaking down, so you are a WAY more stronger person than I! That is an awful lot of stuff for one set of shoulders and I cannot blame you one bit for feeling stressed. Sometimes it helps just to talk about it like you did here...at least to take the edge off a little bit hopefully. I have absolutely no advice other than to say you indeed have my sympathy...yeowsers. I haven't seen that movie, so I don't know
what part you're talking about.
I HATE watching movies on TV though. I just can't stand how much they cut out, and it always seems to be a part that I wanted to see. I either buy them or rent them. I do netflix and then I can get old and new ones, and I'm bad about returning them on time so the no late fee thing works well for me.
I haven't gotten check yet, but
There was a post about a week ago that someone had already gotten theirs direct deposited.
I haven't watched it yet, but
isn't it to the performer's advantage not to win? I know they're all under contract because they go on tour, but doesn't the winner have to pay AI a proceed of their net sales if they produce an album? I might be wrong on that, but I think that's what I remember reading somewhere when the show first started.
If that is the case, David C. would have been very smart not to come out on top last night. He definitely got great PR and exposure on the show, but now maybe can cut his own deal with AI getting any $$$.
As for the performers, I like them both but have been a DC fan up to this point. Of course, I haven't watched it yet (thank goodness for DVR), but DA is just a little too young for me and I like more the rock music.
Pierce Brosnan is my #1 but not sure if I want to see him in the musical. I'm afraid it might ruin him for me.
SAFE HAVEN LAW
Wow, this just blows me away. Last year or early this year a mother aged 17 or 18 gave birth to her 2nd child without parents or anyone for that matter knowing she was pregnant. She walked into an Omaha Hospital and left her child in a restroom and walked out. Please note at that time Nebraska was the ONLY state which did not have a safe haven law on the books. It was pushed through shortly after and is now a law FINALLY. Which is good because now mothers, who do not want to or cannot take care of their children have a safe place to take them without being in trouble for doing so.
Well, to my understanding this law (NE only), does not have an age limit as to how old the chid can be when dropped off at the hospital. Other states have it cut off at 14 but none have ever seen a child OVER 3. This information came from a radio show about the new law yesterday. Since the law was put in place a mother dropped off an 11 year old, a different family dropped off a 9 year old and this mornings news has the following
OMAHA, Neb. -- The state has taken temporary custody of a teenage girl who was dropped off at an Omaha hospital Saturday under Nebraska's new safe haven law.
A representative from the state Department of Health and Human Services said the girl, 13, was left at Immanuel Hospital around midday. No other details were released.
The girl was the third child dropped off at Nebraska hospitals in the past week.
The state's safe haven law took effect in July and allows parents to abandon children at hospitals and other locations. The law does not set a minimum age after which a child can't be left without prosecution.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I agree with the law all the way. I am just concerned about the after shock of having an older child dropped off at the ages stated above, what kind of damage is that doing to the child? I do not agree with child abuse and know that older children are abused all the time but is there not another way we could deal with this?
