gossip and start vicious rumors! At this point, who cares! The woman is deceased and her poor daughter has to face a lifetime of continuing vicious gossips and rumors. Gossip mongers need to find something better to do!!!

Good Lord...this would have scared me to death (sm)
Not gonna say what state I am in but the patient went in for surgery on his kidneys and was mistaken for a neurosurgery patient and had his head shaved before they realized he was the wrong guy...he cancelled his kidney surgery and went the heck home! Poor guy!!
No you do not have to live with people
you do not love. People have choices. If you chose to live with someone you did not love, wanted out of the marriage and was unhappy, then good for you. Fortunately, I would not stay in that situation and be miserable.
Please put your bible away as I am done. Thank you!
Have a great day!
The people that used to live across the street
from my parents one Yard Of The Month from a local garden club one time. My father snuck over there one night and stole it from their yard to put in ours. Thank heavens they had a good sense of humor.
Don't forget the people who live near an
ocean and might get eaten by a shark someday or live an area that sees a lot of hurricanes/tornados/blizzards. I think the whole state of Florida should pay more because they have more sun exposure than the north and run a higher risk of skin cancer.
And definitely charge more for the sex-crazed teenagers that might contract an STD and how about all the tots in daycare bringing home who knows what. Shall we go on?
Love people who love dogs.

I feel sorry for people who live off the government
I have raised 2 kids that did not have to do without and on my own. I was a divorced woman and did not, thank goodness, have to rely on anyone or anything else. I am much stronger than that.
I live in upstate NY, and people think I should sound like I'm from the Bronx
My online friends are all surprised when they first talk to me on the phone - "You don't have an accent!" LOL
I couldn't live in the same house with do-nothing people! Warning bells there!! nm
s
No kidding. Some of these people sound like they live in a third world country.
I honestly can barely believe some of the stuff you people are posting. If you are struggling that much you should find a new job.
I think I'd love to live where you do Hayseed
When you describe everything in your posts it sounds beautiful. I live in Upstate NY and we always win the award for most snow ever in Central New York. What an honor. LOL. I have to go out in the mornings put my daughter on the bus, but that'll be the only time I'm out unless I have to go to the store. I don't like ice either. I have a four wheel drive Jeep, but I'm still afraid to drive when the roads are icy.
I can honestly say I love where I live
I can't imagine moving. I love my neighbors and the neighborhood. Everyone is friendly, and helpful. There is a lot of activity starting now that it's getting nicer out, and I can't wait for the bonfires and cookouts. The only time I thought about moving, although never would since it wasn't practical was when our best friends moved about 5 miles away. They wanted us to buy a house near theirs.
The scariest part is realizing how many truly dumb people live among us in this world....
They are up to 12,000 or more; so people are giving! I'm now trying to come up with one myself. hehe
I too live rural and have good sm
neighbors, beautiful lawns and homes (which dont' all look the same) and no roaming animals, boarded up houses etc. Given all that I still wouldn't live in a HOA, too many restrictions!
I just love when people kid about who a dog loves most! SM
God love em, what they bring to our lives is just not adequately said. You gotta feel it. He is lucky to have you!
They are just wonderful. I love when people share
their pets and pet stories here. Thank you for the wonderful picture!
People love my bread stuffing sm
I use Pepperidge Farm seasoned bread stuffing, don't know what other brands are out there, this is put out by a bread company. Then instead of water, use orange juice. I once tried chicken broth but too greasy. I add freshly chopped onions, celery and sometimes raisins and small amt. of chopped cranberries. I never stuff the turkey but bake it separately in a casserole. If it looks too dry, I may add a teaspoon or more of the final turkey drippings just over the top. This is one time I use butter. I have tried rubbing the bird with mayonnaise and that works well. Like to experiment but always the turkey comes out just fine at 20 minutes per lb. and use a thermometer. They always ask for more stuffing.
Lord NO, 28-Yo has own apartment
anger isn't all the time but when it comes up it is very uncomfortable for those around....my husband is the type that doesn't believe in counseling, he thinks they jut want your money and of course he hates Dr. Phil!!! Really he doesn't like to talk about his feelings..
Thank you Lord, I am blessed.
Thank you Lord, I am blessed.
lord have mercy
I am sorry you can't see the more positive aspects of feminism, and there are many.
I went through the "I hate feminism" phase, too. Don't worry. You'll get over it.
I do think that there is a terrible tendency in our culture to sanitize the human-ness out of us, & I think that not even people with bona fide mental illnesses should necessarily have what often is the source of their creativity neutralized pharmacologically, though I'm not sure where you get the idea that feminism is responsible for this practice.
But I also think that I had the right to decide what was right for me, & the freedom to make that decision without worrying about what the feminists or the patriarchy thought about it was a real & true sense of evolution past political rhetoric. I am glad I could salvage most of the past 1-1/2 years because of some person's ingenuity, period. I'm not even entirely certain that the inventor of my drug was male.
As far as men being stripped of their masculinity, I think that feminism itself, like the people who undertook it as a philosophy, had its own pendulum swing. The idea that women had to be "like men" in order to be successful or real or whole or correct or whatever -- was just another propagation of the patriarchy--but it was undeniable that men had social and cultural power & women felt they deserved that, & controlling wealth seemed like the most obvious way to achieve this at the time. And men did have, initially anyway, to let go of some power -- the biggest part of this being their definition of power as "power over" -- & substitution of this concept with the idea of empowerment-- as well as accepting the fact that women as intellectual equals were here to stay. This was very tough for some men, & if they felt emasculated by it, well, I think it was part of their process. Hopefully they will evolve to understand that you don't have to have "power over" to have "power." That is the best thing, I think, that feminism has contributed.
To be sure, the movement had a wobbly infancy, but things have come a long way, baby.
Would definitely contact these people. This one looks awesome and affordable. I love sm
the quilts on the bed.
DId he get into the Lord of the Rings movie? That
set would be nice if he did.
people mimic good taste, but
I would have been really hacked off about that. I do not like my MIL at all! I would have blamed it on her haha. Ill share one of my many many horrible MIL stories....
When my daughter was little, it took forever for her to get hair. She had said over and over how I needed to get it trimmed. I told her we will but we make a deal out of their first haircuts, and we would do it. We lived 5 hours away. Anyway, my husband and I left our kids with her for the weekend, and when I came back, she had trimmed her hair. I was furious... of course my husband didnt notice and couldnt figure out why my face was 6 shades of red. He asked her about it, and she said "she is my granddaughter."
I have plenty more to share, but I have a job and kids to feed lol....
Glad he had good people for the end. I know he appreciated it.
Hugs
I have trouble seeing age in other people...which is good, until I see a photograph. sm
I still perceive most of my friends from high school looking like they did then when I see them now in person. When I look at a current photo of them, I often think "wow, he looks older!" Even people whom I've known ONLY as adults look younger in person than in photos, even if its a nice photo (not just the unflattering ones). I guess movement has a lot to do with it, whereas a photo captures the wrinkles and keeps them locked in, LOL.
Oh, Lord, save me from your Christian followers.

the Lord John Gray books
I read the first one but haven't read the 2 that she published this year (waiting for the paperback versions). It wasn't as good as Outlanders but still pretty decent. Mainly a mystery that I had a hard time following at first with a bit of LJG's (ahem) personal charateristics thrown in, if you know what I mean.
Curious about your objection to Lord of the Rings...
... not going to try to talk you out of it (since there's really no accounting for taste, likes or dislikes) but I'm curious whether you dislike it (a) because you don't care for the story, or (b) because the movie(s) did not meet your expectations.
Having grown up in the 60s, if you hadn't read the thing, you had NO possibility of being cool back then. I finally slogged my way clear through the trilogy for the first time in about 1969, I think it was. I re-read it after the first movie came out, and oddly enough, it was a lot easier to get through at the age of forty-harumph than at the age of 13. Go figure.
Keeping in mind it was written many, many decades ago, in a completely different style than modern readers might be used to, I still thought it was a good story. And I thought the movies were really quite good, visually stunning, and well-done. The only sour note in my experience was that I thought Aragorn was much older than Viggo Mortensen, but I could have been wrong.... Oh, and the balrog looked like something out of a Disney cartoon to me; not NEARLY scary enough. :)
that stands as good reasoning, huh? "because of other people, that's why
good grief
That was a very good post. I wish more people shared your opinion-

I love good news and this is certainly some
I had posted this morning asking about pup-pup and I was really worried it was parvo, glad to know the baby had its shot already for that. Thanks for the update!
I've been running around all day - heard a bit on the radio, but 9 DEAD? Oh goodness. Lord,
help those families right now, God. And that entire city. I used to live there. Can't recall that mall, though. I used to go to 2. If anyone is in that area, I used to live in Bellevue (the Air Force Base there). Where was this mall in Omaha? thanks for any info.
I did. I leave all judgments up to the Lord, I take his golden rule to "love thy neighbor as the
to be the supreme rule, try to live by it always. I do not have to condemn, or judge in any way, Jesus is the supreme judge, what is wrong with extending earthly concern, friendhip, and love? Sometimes that works oh so much better when trying to "enlighten' someone than judgment, or hate, or harshness. That is all.
Tough love can be a good thing - I agree w/you
You did the right thing. He needs to learn otherwise you are going to have a yo-yo on your hands.
I wish I had stuck to my guns the first time my son did that. It took me a few years to learn. Moving away from home is NOT something small. It is a BIG thing and you son needs to realize that. I WISH I had listened to someone besides my mothers advice and maybe my son would be better off.
IMHO--- People should get real - You took YOUR key back You did NOT kick him out you were giving him what he wanted. You did NOT put him out into the streets.
Stick to your guns mom and I think that one day he will be a better man for it.
I love that and can relate. Betcha have good stories :-) TY! nm

Not rich or snooty either, just love good quality
items and buy them when I want. Who wants to shop at the local mall and get something that everyone else wears and see it all over town? Just like jewelry; I don't wear the average items you see advertised every holiday season that everyone wears and every jewelry store sells. My guy gets my things made at a one of kind store, where at least I know I'm probably the only one who has it.
I Love Sally's! Good idea to get the savings card for $5.00
also. You pretty much make it back and-then-some on just a couple of purchases. And they are not expensive to start, I don't think. MUCH cheaper than the stuff at the salons where they can charge $20 for a bottle of shampoo! I have had much success with finding products you can't get anywhere else, such as salon-strength reconstructors/deep conditioning products the salons "won't" sell you, and charge you 15.00 or so for one application, because they want you to keep coming back for them! Cha-ching! Salons are truly such a rip off. At Sally's, I'm like a kid in a candy store! ;)
Love the doggie car-seat idea - you are a good mommy :)
I'm so sorry about your sister's dogs.
Good question. Probably because she's a little older and wiser and not as blinded by love sm
not as scared to believe them because she doesn't have tiny babies. You can hear the anguish in her posts. She doesn't want to leave him, but she is starting to think she has to. It is probably extremely difficult, I'm sure.
I'd love to see the recipe! Choc, PB - got protein and good carbs! Plus antioxidants! nm

We are close in that we live about five miles from each other, but we aren't close like good frie
By husband and BIL WERE pretty good friends, though.
Nah, and I NEVER pass on those round robin letters for good luck, money, love, etc. if passed on in

I do live in Arkansas - my parents live up in Branson so I'm in Missouri quite often!

Calling all you animal lovers - live and let live or intervene? - sm
I have a dilemma. I am an animal lover and have something I cannot come to a conclusion about. At a restaurant where I eat lunch every Friday with a friend of mine, I have noticed a young male kitty hanging around outside looking for food. This past week he ran up to my friend and rubbed her legs and quietly meowed. I purposely did not try to pet him because I knew I would get attached and ignored him. Well, ever since then I find myself thinking about him and wanting to rescue him. Meanwhile, I already have 4 inside cats (2 rescues, 2 Maine Coons) and hubby really does not want another cat in the house because a few years ago I promised we would never have more than 4 (had up to 5 at one point previously). I actually have a huge screened deck he could stay on indefinitely because I do not believe in letting cats run loose for their own safety. I could provide plenty of food, a warm place to sleep, and veterinary care. At some point I would even probably work him into our household, but I just cannot do it at the moment. Just not sure I would be doing right by that kitty because I am sure he would be upset and confused for a good while as to where he was and what was going on, but is that better than being hungry and cold? I know there are lots of animal lovers out there. What does everyone think??
I LOVE love love shallots! I use them in everything that calls for an onion and/or garlic. Mmmmmm. n

I'm a live-and-let-live person but had to draw the line
after I found HUGE holes in the walkway between my house and barn. I thought they were just little mice stealing grain, but then I spotted one and it was a HONKIN RAT! My poor olderly cat was out there with me at the time and saw it, and he hissed at it and ran away!
I asked for advice on what to do at a local agricultural board, because I have other animals and didn't want to use poison and conventional traps weren't working. They advised putting a large pale of water out with some seeds floating in it, figuring the rats would go for the seeds and end up drowning. That was a no-go because the water just froze up solid. I wound up reluctantly going with Decon because I just can't have my house destroyed. I haven't had seen any more rats or evidence of them stealing grain, so I'm guessing they have died. The guy at the grain store promised me the rats would not die in the building and stink the joint up, rather they would crawl off and die outside. I don't know if I believe that, as it is still winter here and decomposition would be holding off until it warms up. We'll see, but at least the destruction has been halted.
Good luck and I too say have no mercy, because you just don't need them destroying hour house or causing a spark chewing wires and burnin' the place down. It is war!
(How un-PC is this emoticon?!)
Make them live outside? This is so funny! Ours live outside, where they WANT to be. sm
Not all dogs want to be in "indoor" dogs, mind you. They have plenty of space to run around and play, fenced, and if they are brought in during bad weather they whine at the back door to go back out! So before you comment on outside dogs, you really need to get your facts straight. Seriously. Not all dogs are made or want to be inside all of the time.
American Idol - Love, love, love Adam!!!
I think he'll make it til the end! At least I hope so!
you can give the people the facts, but the decision making process should be left to the people
This is what our country is founded on FREEDOM OF CHOICE! I'm laughing already; you are just as mortal as the rest of us, and don' even attempt to that you've never done anything in your lifetime that was unsafe or unhealthy. NOT gonna buy it.
