Thank you to all; I have a teen here in my complex who wants to do it.
Thank you.
I met my husband at the appartment complex we lived in.
I thought he was cute but was too shy to do anything about it so a neighbor put a few good words in for me and he came over to my appartment, we talked for a while and then he asked me out for a date.
Maybe get involved in community activities, take courses you are interested in or just do like I did, keep your eyes opened.
I rent also and live in a huge complex
They hired someone to do the vinyl and afterwards they were installing the new doorbells. Well, they could not figure them out and while I was working the doorbell was ringing constantly! I went down there and started to explain to them and they could not understand me, not a word. I then called the company myself (got the name off the truck) and threatened to call immigration and explained that if these people passed the citizenship test surely they'd know a couple of words of English. Within an hour they were gone and have not been back. It was funny watching them hightail it out of here from my window :) LOL
You guys are gonna give me a complex!
That is so incredibly sweet of you all to worry about me like this! I am truly just fine. Since I "quit" my job a couple of weeks ago (which I reneged on anyway because I'm a complete tool), I've been working almost nonstop. Tonight marks the first "weekend" I have had off since that time...oh what, 4 weeks now? And let me tell you, I am totally fried.
However, this is a good thing. I got off that darned pager and will now start work on a regular schedule. I can feel the stress melt away already...well, job related stress anyway.
I had to hit the grocery store last night, something I haven't done in about 2 weeks, and I nearly vomited. Last time I left the property gas was well, diesel is what I use, was a whopping $2.99. It is now up to $3.35/gallon! A gallon of 2% milk is $4.69. Bread is $3.14/loaf for the crappy stuff and orange juice is just a tad over $3.00/half gallon. I got 4 bags of absolute bare necessities at the grocery store and it cost $70!! Holy crap! No red meat (well, weeners), no fish, no dairy. How on earth do people with families do it?!
This will be the first winter we have no oil in the tank for home heat, as that is also almost $3/gallon! However, I think we have enough firewood. Scary times my friends and I'm really worried about our fellow Mainers. We have a lot of elderly here in Maine who are really struggling on a good day, never mind the challenges of our winters. There used to be a heating program that would provide reduced-cost fuel...not this year. Reserves are empty in the whole state. Sad and frustrating situation for many, many people and I don't wanna point fingers or nuthin, but the only ones who aren't suffering or seem to have a clue tend work out of D.C., know what I'm sayin?
So, yeah, that's my overdue rant I guess. Thank you again for all who have e-mailed and posted here. I appreciate it more than you will ever know. Once I have things caught up around here, I will sit down and say hello one-on-one. Take care of each other. Rough times are afoot.
We were next door neighbors at an apartment complex.

Vitamin B6
I was told helps with PMS symptoms, but I don't know about St. John's wort. Look at the ingredients, is it a combo?
My GYN said to take vitamin B6.
But, I suffered so bad with this along with heavy cycles (14 days on) that I finally had a hysterectomy (left with cervix and ovaries). The back pain was horrendous as well during these times. Finally, after 8 years (I'll be 38 in a few months), I have found relief from the horrible PMS. I'd go from crying to screaming to loving to hating to pitiful to in bed to not wanting to go to bed... Are you getting the picture? These emotions lasted 2 weeks and then was "on" for 2 weeks and I never had relief, never until I had the hysterectomy. I felt like a million bucks 2 hours postop - no lie! I was home within 24 hours (pleaded with GYN to just let me go home) and I have a new woman since. I doubt they'll do a hysto though just for PMS, but like I said I've been there and the only thing she recommended was vitamin B6 and Yoga. Definitely see a doctor though....
I take Biotin which is a B vitamin.
.
Vitamin K does exactly the contrary, it
COUNTERACTS the blood thinning.
So, people whose blood has become too thin by possible overdosing on blood thinners, SHOULD eat foods containing a lot of vitamin K.
They should especially eat yoghurt which contains a lot of vitamin K.
Aspirin is a strong blood thinner due to containing salicylates.
There are also a lot of foods that contain salicylates and people who take prescription blood thinners, like Coumadin, Heparin, Plavix etc... should avoid those.
You can Google foods that act as blood thinners, opposite foods that contain a lot of vitamin K.
They have the opposite effect.
I think green vegatables also contain vitamin K and will help stop excessive bleeding.
NO BASHING, please!
Vitamin D question
I don't get outside much these days and wonder if anyone knows if you can get vitamin D from sun coming through the window?
My mom has osteoporosis, so I figure I better do what I can!
Thanks. 
You can take a Vitamin D supplement. nm

Vitamin D is very important
A lack of vitamin D is the cause of ricketts. It doesn't happen that often in the US any more because of all of the fortified foods we get, but if you don't go outside much at all, it can be a real concern. There was a story about a hugely obese man - like 900 pounds obese - who had horrible pain and it turned out to be a lack of vitamin D. THe only way your body can metabolize vitamin D is by exposure to sunlight.
Doctors always want to make sure that women who are older or at risk for osteoporosis take Calcium and Vitamin D. The Vitamin D helps the body metabolize the calcium.
You should probably take a calcium supplement as well, if you aren't already.
Hope your rib pain goes away!
Vitamin D deficiency?
Anyone ever been diagnosed with this?
My rheumatologist's office called this morning to tell me that my blood tests showed a deficiency. My doctor is going to call this afternoon to discuss it with me. Apparently, it's not so uncommon in regions that lack sunshine?
Which vitamin for hair and nails?
Is it vitamin D? My hair will only get to a certain length and seems like it stops growing. Any ideas on something to help it grow more?
Vitamin Water XXX flavor and
I go through about a pitcher a day of green tea that I make with raw sugar and honey. And, of course, Welch's -- it is so good for you.
LOL! Yogurt is good as it contains a lot of vitamin K
it helps with blood clotting.
If people have not enough blood platelets, then they suffer from
Thrombocytopenia.
No bashing, please.
I am only a humble MT who learned a lot through atudying and MTing.
Thanks!
Try Palmer's Cocoa Butter with vitamin E.
I had a similar problem and this worked for me. My husband even uses it and likes it. I like the unscented type. Good Luck!
I read that a lack of vitamin D and boron can
cause psoriasis. The article said that a lot of vegetarians don't get psoriasis because they have a diet high in boron which helps with the conversion of vitamin D. It is because vegetarians eat food high in boron and vitamin D, i.e., veggies, fruit, etc, and the soild the veggies are grown in is high in these nutrients.
There was a post on here about helping psoriasis so I thought I would throw that in! Hope it helps.
Sorry, I meant ..'There are creams which contain vitamin K.'..sm
And, BTW, vitamin C and calcium are very good for preventing wrinkles.
Cranberry juice may work better than vitamin....
--
Is this the Vitamin Water that Coca Cola bought?
I had one for the first time today, fruit punch. Good stuff :)
The intake of vitamin K helps against spider veins. ..... sm
But be careful, do not take too much, only from food sources, yoghurt is a very good source of vitamin K.
There are creams which contain vitamin C.
If you want to take supplemental vitamin K in tablet form, first check with your doctor regarding the dosage.
I had some spider veins in my face, but those disappeared when I started to put vaseline in my face.
I had heard Vitamin D was a good source for bones,
of course and being as I along with others on here do not get out as much as we should sometimes, had heard maybe I should take. I have pain in my ribs (checked for other things and scans, x-rays turned out ok) so started this morning with 4000 units. Anyone else take and if so what dosage? My ribs were hurting before I got out of bed and since seem to be feeling some better.
A lot of gastric bypass patients have vitamin D deficiency
also iron, calcium, and B12. But I have known other people who also had a D deficiency.
I have heard L-Lynsine (vitamin) is good to take. Supposedly it decreases sm
the time of outbreak, but also minimizes you from future outbreaks if you add it to your daily vitamin regimen.
Might try valerian root capsules or 5HTP or melatonin, in vitamin section
