DTWS post. I'm sorry, but I cannot support a show sm
that "allows" and supports 2 people who are not married dance and become SO intimate in a setting, especially if the person is married. How sad! I hated to see Helio's long-time girlfriend give the ring back and say "I'm not going to marry you." I'd dump my fiance too after a LONG kiss to his fellow "dance partner" and then goes on the radio saying, "yes, it was a long kiss, and I liked it!" Just terrible.
I'm sure a lot of relationships have been broken up because of this show. No man when tempted with a gorgeous, voluptuous woman, can resistant feeling attractive, pressing up against her body for the sake of "dancing" and then say he did nothing wrong. Vice versa if you are a woman in a relationship.
It's just morally wrong. I think people should be single if they are going to dance or dance with their partners, spouses, fiances, etc. I just can't tell you how wrong it is. It's not just dancing. It's deep intimacy and cheating, all covered and hidened under "entertainment and dancing." Give me a fricken break.
My post meant, why pick just 1 show
to come down on? This is nothing new and did not start with DWTS. That is what I meant- trying to say happens everywhere and the business place probably takes first place. Watch your husbands!!
Rotten Tomatoes list the 50 best scary movies. Good list.

I missed the show but yesterday on her show
a couple of brothers came in and gave money to the family. Sorry I don't have more info, but like you, I do love the show. The brothers tried to give some of the credit to Oprah but she wouldn't take it. She really wanted the brothers to get all the credit.
None on this list but have a list of my own!!
Hanna, Tigger, Sophie, Ethyl, Wally, Pipin, Morris, Tito and Moshee.
5 awesome cats, 3 birds a-flyn' and a little dog in a pear tree!
Add another to the list (sm)
I confess I adored Clooney back in his ER days. Thought he was handsome until just a couple of weeks ago when I saw him with his Oceans 6,279 or whatever number it is gang promoting the film on a morning talk show. He looked like a little geeky guy sitting in his chair. The hair, skinnier, I don't know but something was different and it wasn't good.
Tom Cruise was great in his Risky Business days. He'd be better off now in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Josh Holloway, Liam Neeson, John Cusack and OMG I can't think of any more...any ideas?
My list
Who could only have one? They are like potato chips. All the Harry Potter Movies - do you have YOUR ticket for Wednesday?, Where the Red Fern Grows, The Big Chill, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill I and II, Better off Dead, Gone With the Wind, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Casablanca, Driving Miss Daisy, Rear Window, Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Passion of the Christ, School of Rock, The Crow, Braveheart, The Secret Garden, all the Jason Bourne Movies, The Labyrinth. I have to stop now and go watch one before I fall asleep! I am glad to see all those wonderful movies on here. Now I am reminded of old favorites that I want to watch again and ones I don't own for my collection I share with my daughters.
Add me to the list
My daughter and I pretend that we "miss" the actual real ending of the commercial, when the people come back and take this sweet doggie!
my list
Viagara, Cialis, retirement villages, multi million sports figures stating they drive a Buick or a Ford. Insurance salesmen with one foot in the grave themselves, on-line schools with degrees in 18 months guaranteed, mattress ads, especially designed by designers, you sleep on them for ,,,,sake, you don't wear them! teeth whiteners, wrinkle removers, energy drinks, hair growth products, More - breast enhancers, jewelry that is overpriced, self-help videos, miracle sponges and mops that clean by themselves, Chia, free-trial money-back guarantees (you never send them back), anything with 12 easy payments, no money down; free stuff where you just pay shipping. And that's only a partial list - no room for all of them and no room to make this perfect English or punctuation. There are on-line courses for this, just send them your credit card number and they will make you a college grad in no time!
Top of my list...
Friday Night Lights, finally back on NBC after being on Direct TV only since fall.
2-1/2 Men
The Office
Grey's Anatomy
2nd list....
sounds fun!
Now to find the time to do my own.. LOL
going to add to the list
One thing that I did when my kids were growing up in the80s was to make a "garbage omlet" (sorry for the typos working up until recently -- but what I did was if there really weren't enough leftovers in the fridge to make a meal, meat, veggies, etc, I would beat eggs up and combine everything along with cheddar cheese and I am on a very frugal budget right now as well -- our local Publix has had Hillshire Farm lunch meat on sale for several months at $4/for 2 packages - I clip the coupons which are $1 of for 3 -- I buy things on special when at ALL possible -- went shopping the other day and spent $200 but the freezer and fridge are packed and that is for me and when S/O is here for 3.5 days -- I basically "create" and one of the things I do is make my own wraps -- buy tortillas on sale, again, Hillshire Farm and for S/O'S lunch, wrap in plastic wrap to hold together -- he will also take leftovers.
One experiment that I did the other day and was great, but I made macaroni salad with no mayo -- took Albacore tuna -- a large can, cooked and drained macaroni, italian dressing, 3 hard boiled eggs -- 3-4 greek olives and your own "seasonings to taste" but here in FL with hot weather or any place NO mayo -- I can only give basic ingredients because I have SELDOM followed a book as far as making anything and this is from someone whom from back in the 70s couldnt even make Jello :) -- go for the roasts, chicken breasts etc -- but try to think too, of meals that rather "prepared you can make from scratch" A pork roast, beef roast, chuck roast, ham, can be sandwiches, BBQ, chunked into salads etc. Sorry, EXHAUSTED after working all day but trying to help -- OOPS forgot about this -- a PREPARED fruit salad with "lunch meat ham" shredded up makes a quick -- hot weather fix as well -- be CREATIVE and good luck

Do not call list
 There is a national "Do Not Call List" that you can put not only your home land line on but also your cell phone number on. You sign up on-line via the Internet and you remain on the list for 5 years at which time you have to re-enroll your phone numbers. It is not enough to "ask" to be put on the "do not call list" you must go to the national website and sign yourself up. If you are called by a company after you have put your number on the national "do not call list" you can call the Attorney General and the company will be fined $1,500.00. Hope this helps! We have all our numbers on the list home phone/cell phones and our numbers are unlisted as well.

Restrictions you list..
All of the above restrictions are things that any one with a little bit of sense would WANT to do. They are meant to protect, not restrict. I gladly wear a seat belt, riding motorcycle helmet is for the person, not the government and the transfat---- that should have been banned years ago along with other food addictives that do nothing for our health and only hurt us. In my home we only use olive oil in cooking and do not frequent the fast food joints. We try to buy good food that is as pure as we can get for our cooking here. I do not care to have other folks smoking around me, definitely not in my home. I think what you named above are for our health.
I thought you were going to have a list
About the divorced men with kids living at home with their parents...I can understand their situation. After I got divorced, my kids lived with my ex and I paid child support. It was impossible for me to live on my own and pay CS, even when I got a job that doubled my yearly income. The more I made, the more my CS payment went up. I respect someone whose priority is being financially and emotionally responsible to their children after divorce, even if it means being judged a "momma's boy" for living with his parents for a while. On the upside of that, too, is the fact that not just any old new woman in his life is going to be brought home to meet the parents (usually). They usually wait until they find a special someone to bring them over to meet the family. Remember, I doubt that the ex-wife is just sitting at home twiddling her thumbs minding the kids. Most ex-wives DO date after divorce (otherwise there would be fewer blended families/second marriages), so I don't see any difference between the ex-hubbie and the ex-wife. JMHO
Anbesol is on my list....
Going to Walmart after my shift.
That was one of the most hated on the list! (nm)

cookies...quite a list..
This will get you in an early holiday mood.... and if you don't bake...send the list to someone as a big hint!!!
JUST CLICK ON THE NAME OF THE COOKIE AND BAM, THE RECIPE IS THERE. GOOD TO KEEP HANDY FOR THE HOLIDAYS.
Disgustingly Rich Brownies
My 'to-do' list: -sm
1. The dishes: (No more clean ones left. Tired of pulling dirty ones out of the pile and rinsing them off.) But of course, am I doing them? NO! I'm reading & posting on MT Stars! ;D
2. Vacuuming: When a dark red rug is starting to look white instead, that's enough cat-hair to build yourself a whole 'nother cat!
3. Car-Maintenance: Poor thing is overdue for oil-change, tires, you-name-it. But I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and get it taken care of, if I'm going to be able to rely on it to get me 'over the river & thru the woods' to family Thanksgiving this year, 400 miles away!
4. Yard Work: My landlady wants me to keep the plants in the back yard watered. Instead, I keep hoping it will rain.
5. Laundry: I currently have a good excuse - washing machine is broken and I'm still waiting for the part that was ordered. But MEANWHILE, I'm having to dig back in the closet to my worst, oldest clothes in order to find something to wear each day. And I'm down to the underwear your mom tells you never to wear 'because you never know when you might be in an accident and have to go to the hospital, and then wouldn't you be embarrassed.' Well, actually I woudn't, 'cause I would be in the hospital, and I wouldn't care!
6. Replace missing skate wheel: I broke an axle on my inline skates 2 weeks ago, and had to 'limp' along for miles on 3 wheels instead of 4. That sucked.
7. Letters/Emails: I owe 'way too many people a letter or an email. i used to be so good about corresponding with friends and relatives, sending photos, news, etc. Now I'm totally negligent about it. If only I didn't have to work... ;)
Which I guess I'd better do now, in order to fix that car, buy stamps for my unwritten letters, buy a new axle for my skate, buy dish-soap, buy new underwear, and get the vacuum-cleaner fixed after it dies from vacuuming up all that cat-hair!
Ok then, list yours out for us and we will call them out for you (sm)
No one is without sin so I guess we should all go around pointing the finger at each other all the time and not worry about what we ourselves are doing?
For me, it's because I usually forget the list!
I'm a person who has to write reminders to remember my reminders.
Try Craig's List.

You need to make a list of goals for yourself and
You have to learn who YOU really are! You are not the same person you were when you met this man, or even the day he left.
Try to look at it as an opportunity to live your life for yourself. By doing that, you will be an example to your children of how to take control of their own lives and achieve all that they want.
Keep yourself occupied. Have goals. Work toward those goals. Go out and have fun with non-romantic friends -- this will probably mean just girls night out for a while! Stay away from males for a while...until you can be clear-minded, level-headed, objective, and strong at heart with them.
You should be in a position of viewing men as: Not a necessity -- you make your own money, have your children already, have your own credit, etc....but one would be an enhancement to your life.
Your happiness is your responsibility! Go get your happiness!
I have a *to do list* sitting on my desk
every day because I can't remember anything and I'm early 40s. :)
Making MY list and checking
I also made a list for my hubby. He is a sweetie, though and last year it was diamond ring, the year before diamond bracelet, the year before gold necklace and this year I made not only things for me but also things I wanted around the house. He bought me gold earrings, a bling watch and some snuggles for my feet (he says he has heard me say my feet get cold). Love that man with a passion!!
lol, if not about the receiving, then why the *list* and the *training*?
x
Mine aren't on the list...
Ours are a lab named Festus, a McNab named Jinx and two cats, Precious and Tiger. I'd just die laughing if Festus hit the top ten, that was my husband's big idea.
Don't have a list and if I had asked some of these questions
the above have, probably would not have a straight-forward answer. I did not know before marriage my husband cooked. He can make the restaurants look sorry he is that good and cooks for us all the time. He had just gotten a new job after marrying and still there now for 6+ years. He told me no children and no luggage and that was about it. Very shy, non-talkative, had never been married and 9+ years younger than me. Non-confrontational, easy-going, not handsome but I love him with a purple passion. I had children when we married but they were grown and he and I have known each over for over 30 years- he was a friend of my deceased's husband. I hit the jackpot!
I am visiting the places you list
My first trip to Wyoming, visiting the Rockies like I said, Jackson and the like. Landing in Salt Lake, Jackson, going down Snake River, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Sheridan, Keystone, Mount Rushmore and listen to this, Bear County USA!! What a grand trip. Your country must be beautiful. I just wish could make to Montana as I hear the scenery there also grand but so looking forward to my trip and thanks for the information! Cannot believe my family turns down all expense paid vacation! My trip starts July 25th.
The alternative list is in that article
and this is for many, many things but other than the mention of aluminum foil, I did not see an alternative for fabric softener on there. Aluminum foil? I would think that could break down and then you would have aluminum to contend with? Never-ending!!
one lady quit over my list
she was offended and said she knew how to do her job. I was a little upset at the moment and said if I was good enough to pay on time and tip consistently why could I expect my cleaning to be consistent.
Oh well my house is dirty I am exhausted and I will spend my day off trying to get caught up and start back still exhausted.
With the brood of 10 animals here's the list:
DOGS: Shaina, Tiger & Taffy
CATS: Pearl, Hollow, Ember, Ribbon & Samson
RABBIT: Bonnie
BETA FISH: Jacqueline
Vet's name for all of them: Money (just kidding - just seeing if you're paying attention).
Add one more "no regrets" to your list
My fibroids started to grow when I got pregnant and six months after I gave birth they were still huge (about the same size as yours - my doc said my uterus was about 16-week size). I had my hysterectomy at 34 and it was one of the best things I've ever done, health-wise. I had horrible periods since high school. I remember my mom picking me up from school and having to pull over to the side of the road so I could throw up.
Good luck to you. The main advice I would give is make sure you rest the FULL time your doc recommends. My incision actually wasn't that painful until I tried to do too much and pulled a muscle in it. Yeeeeouch!
So rest, take care, and you should be fine!
Craig's List also has pets.
Sometimes even people trying to rehome adorable tiny dogs like a Yorkie.
Just a thought. Hope you get just the right family member for you, but there can be a lot of heartbreak from getting a dog from a breeder who only cares about the money instead of one who is trying to improve the breed and doesn't breed their dogs to death.
I hate to be all depressing when you just want a puppy. Sorry.
Not all schools have a waiting list - sm
where I am the local teaching hospital does not use them at all. So fresh crop each time. I have been thinking about it too. I am 42. I need to do 3 classes first to qualify for the program. It is full-time though 5 straight semesters and I would be done, though would probably go for the more advanced degree once I had the basic one, have to get that one first though. Money is also an issue, guess I would have to hope for a full scholarship as I have no money to go to school, and of course childcare during the summer would be the other issue. Just wish the program was not "accellerated" so I didn't have to do school in the summer. A job is basically guaranteed when done too, though I am sure you don't get to offered 9-5!
Copying to shopping list...
Especially this first one, Beef & Cheese Lasagna. I'm sure I'll be using the 'leftovers' as well, but when I read this one, I was really sorry I didn't have more time and all the ingredients. Thanks for this one!
Are you prepared to list every risk
How far do you want it to go? Fill out a huge form (that they paid someone to design instead of paying claims), that lists every supposedly avoidable risk imaginable, including amusement park rides, occasional bowling, how often and when you take a walk, if you might be a passenger on the back of someone's motorcycle, etc. Then they can spy on you (instead of paying claims) or encourage your fellow employees to be whistle blowers, catch you doing something that you said you wouldn't do, and deny your insurance! How often do you eat junk food - are you prepared to be completely honest and accurately estimate how often you intend to do that? How often do you exercise - and what if you say you will but for some reason don't? Prepare to lose your coverage over it because they can prove you a liar deliberately cheating the system. That's what this is coming to!
they have a date list on the IRS website
If you go over to http://www.irs.gov you can check on when you should get your money. They also have a spot somewhere on there where you can check to see how much you should be getting. You should get your check based on the last two numbers of the main social security number, the bigger the number, the later your check will come.
and the punk kid next door would be first on the list
Too bad he's only 14 or 15 years old. This kid is a really piece of work. He is a total psycho. He's 14 or 15 years old and he's the neighborhood bully. He has a 6 year old brother - cute as anything and lots of fun to watch. Looks up to big brother (wrong role model to look up to). Kid is hanging out with gangs, into drugs. Mother came home the other day (screaching halt with her car) got out screaming at the top of her lungs for him to pack his bags, he is out of there, he's been lying, to them, and he did something to some girl - don't know what. I say - ship him off to troubled teens or boot camp or anywhere but here. Luckily the parents are seeing through his lies. Other neighborhood kids are no longer playing with him and when his parents go off to work "hooligans" come roaming around. Okay - just had to say that.
my list is ongoing and never ending!
It seems I spend all my time working (and playing a bit around here on the internet) but I actually just cleaned out my closet and took my clothes to the Salvation army and felt very good about it.
Organizing has NEVER been my thing and i wish so much that it was.
I have loads and loads of paperwork to sort out, file, etc.
I try every day to go through my mail (you wouldn't believe the amounts of junk mail that accumulates, that i then "save" to shred)..
I need to send some baby gifts off to my baby sister -my niece is now 7 weeks old!! - i have attached a pic because she is the new love of my life and i like to show her off whenever possible :)
I would like to organize my desk, clean my kitchen, get my carpets cleaned.
Rearrange my room (maybe it's my life i want to rearrange?!)
Oh it goes on and on and on!!!
have a GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!
This is Allyson Ayn! (she is in North Carolina, I am in Nevada)... A lot of the things I want to get done revolve around me being able to go see her for the second time ever soooo wish me luck on my tasks ahead!
xoxo
You've got a great list....sm
another thing you can do is if you have kids older than 5 years ago it's a great time to teach them about budgeting and money if you haven't already. We have our family budget hanging on the wall in my office and the kids know exactly how much money is available and that there's no money tree growing in the back yard to get cash from!
Another suggestion to save money is watch the sale papers and warehouse clubs if one is close by. We have a big freezer and when things like ground beef, chicken, bread, peanut butter, etc goes on sale at a super cheap price we stock up. I've got 12 super sized jars of Skippy peanut butter in my basement right now that we got for $1.25 a jar at a warehouse club because of overstock! The way we go through peanut butter it's a HUGE savings and will last us until school gets out.
With the kids I do a "reward" fund with them. This means that when we hit certain family financial goals I give them some extra cash to spend. It's not a lot but it gives them goals when things happen such as the power bill is down because they've been turning off lights more, water bill is less because they use a timer and take a 3 minute shower versus staying in there until all 30 gallons of hot water are drained from the water heater, etc. Now on Sundays they enjoy looking at the grocery store sale ads and figuring out what things are on sales at great prices, and when I have a coupon for the same item we really get excited. There have been many times I've paid less than a quarter, or nothing, for an item on sale when I had a coupon that basically covered the cost of the item. That I love!
I've been making a list of possible...
meals with their ingredients and try to limit my store visits to every 2 weeks. I then just buy what I need for all these possible meals. When I get ready to fix dinner, I just pick one knowing I have all that I need on hand. It saves me from going to the store so much. There are times when I just have leftovers. With me and my son, we always have leftovers. For sides, our favorite is a big salad with just tomatoes and lettuce and Italian dressing. For dessert, I do like you, cookies or ice cream, rarely a cake or something I've made.
give the list of suspects to the
I would escort my daughter to the school, speak to the principal and give them a list of suspects. The police wait until something bad happens, but the school might be able to intervene early.
