Wierd roomate
I discovered my roomate drinks a lot of booze every single night and sits in her room watching TV and going on line. She never goes on dates, or to the gym. She appears to be a full blown alchy and the TV blarring is starting to totally annoy me. She needs to leave. How can I politely tell her to go?
This is going to sound wierd, but...(sm)
we actually make something like a farm cheese, add tons of chopped peppers, and viola.....a gift for my neighbor! My neighbor bakes a lot and always has a huge plate of goodies (fudge, candies, cookies -- all homemade) for us every year. I struggled for years with what to get them -- fruit baskets and all that, but the homemade cheese is the ticket. She called yesterday and asked if it was ready yet....ROFL..
My dog likes wierd stuff too, but...
My dal loves bananas and her favorite treat is icecubes. She always comes running when you open the freezer door. You do have to be careful, because there are a lot of things that are toxic to dogs. I saw a list on line and I was really surprised by some of the stuff on there. I wish I had copied it or bookmarked it. If anyone has it, it would be helpful for dog owners if they could post it here. Some of the stuff on there were things I would not have a problem letting my dog eat.
domestic emergencies-y'know it's a wierd day when
this week (Tue. I believe) I had to email my PS to take two 15-minute blocks off my time card to upblock the toilet and clean up the over-flow (twice)! Argghhh. I still don't know what didn't go down!
Tx for the popsicle-on-tongue boo-boo idea. Have you seen 1/2 rubbing alcohol:1/2 water and a few drops of food coloring to make ice packs?
domestic emergencies-y'know it's a wierd day when
The kids are quiet, you're typing along, when your six-year-old comes crying into the room with a needle-threader stuck to his tongue. Drop everything to assist... Oh, the joys of working at home uninterrupted -- Any other funny dilemmas you've had to deal with? LOL :) Back to work after a soothing popsicle...
Limbo. Great song, great game. Also,
The girls all line up and walk through a room as if they are modeling on the catwalk. Get a couple of bright colored boa's from the party store. It's a real riot and the kids have a blast especially if a couple of brave boys grab a boa and do it too. We've had many a birthday party doing this and it was totally hilarious.
Wow!! What a great attitude! I love that - great perspective!

What great determination and help from a great friend! :) nm

I am sure that you are a great mother and a great cook,
and that you tried everything, now try the 'hunger diet'.
Great one! Thanks!! nm

That's great!!
A great big congrats to your daughter! She is so fortunate to have such a supportive and helpful family!!
Did he say anything at all about how great a new job for you would be? I'd keep an eye on him as
s
Wow, that's great!
We had always said 3 and that's when we stopped. They are all teenagers now. Wouldn't change a thing either.
That was great.
I'm glad they did that. What fun. Not only was he thin, but his clothes were nice. No jump suit. I preferred his hair when it was his natural brown rather than the black dye job.
That's great - sm
I'm glad I don't need them anymore then! Also check with your state regarding laws about those things. For example, in Florida you are only allowed to borrow 500, in which case I would be weary of anyone offering more. Thanks for the tip - looks like you should be advising me!
Great, thanks!
I listen and take all ideas I can.
My mom did it and it looks great.
She did not fill in the cracks, and it looks great simply painted.
DS, he does a great job.
e
For her age, I don't think she looks great at all
isn't she around 20? She looks more like 30 and haggard half the time. Oh, and you too can have that body with the cocaine/alcohol-only diet! Get real!
She is such a piece of garbage. But they say her mother is too (was desperate for fame so pushed her daughter into the spotlight) and her dad as well (didn't he just get released from prison)?
Sad.
That's great! Another one sm
I haven't seen Chuck and Larry yet, but will definitely ignore the reviews and see it. I love good comedies.
Another one, if you haven't seen it, is the Wedding Crashers. I thought it was just supposed to be a silly romantic comedy, but my daughter and watched it on cable last weekend and I cannot remember the last time I laughed out loud, spewing drink laughing, in some time. See that movie.
I think it would be a great job (sm)
True they don't pay real high but you are at your kids school, no child care costs, good benefits, and summers off - sounds pretty good to me!!! They are hard to get where I live also though. Best wishes to you!
That was great. Thanks. (nm)
.
Great Job
There should be more people like you!
They have been a great help to me
in dealing with a similiar situation with a family member. Sometimes you hear things that you don't want to hear but the people in these groups have been in your shoes and they understand what you're going through like no one else.
I got to do this. It was great.
I contacted her because I was going to the 20-year reunion. I couldn't talk her into going, but I did get her to meet me for another trip back home.
There was plenty to talk about. It was great.
Have a great
weekend everybody
Thanks. Those were great! nm

They are not that great...SM
They are great for a while, but then if the DVD player breaks, you are stuck with a TV with a broken DVD player and end up having the buy a whole new DVD player. If the TV breaks, you are stuck with a DVD player that you can't use because the TV part is broken. I would not recommend getting a TV/DVD player combo. I know many people who had had these problems with them. I would buy each component separate so that if one thing breaks, you only have to replace that.
That was great! Thanks. nm
!
Great tip! Thanks!
Thank you for that website. I'm going to check them out. Thanks to everyone for all of your informative posts on this subject. You have all be very, very helpful. I appreciate you!!
That's a great one!...sm
Rhinoceros where stomping out fires (the fire brigade)...We wore the tape out watching it so many times...I suppose it's on DVD by now. Thanks for reminding me of that one!  Cat
This is great!
This is the greatest thing I have seen in a long time. I just cannot stop laughing.  I know I will remember this one for as long as I live! Thank you so much for this holiday memory. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL. (I did not mean to yell, just consider it a loud voice LOL.)
The Others is GREAT!
I saw Rosemary's Baby but not the other ones. Thanks for the suggestions. I am going to get the Mothman Prophecies and THEM! on sale on the DVD club too. One really good and the other a classic. I love sci fi too and got my kids all into star trek. The Borg are the scariest but they love it and so do I. LOL.
LOL. That was great! Thanks, V8. nm

That's great. You should both be
xx
Hi, Kim, that would be great!
Yes, the Casino is one in the same. I've actually never been there if you can believe that. My in-laws go there a lot to gamble. I wish I was in Georgia. I hate snow! My parents live in Utica. Small world.
He is a great looking dog. I really
wished we could hear him talking there when he won.
You are a great mom!!
I understand what you are saying and do agree. I became upset when I read statements such as "weird, sick, "it" - because you know as well as I, people still feel that way about gays. I get so angry that people can be so heartless and cruel when it comes to lifestyles that they feel are not of the norm. You are a great mom and your son is very lucky!! For those who know that someone is gay and have not been told yet - my feeling is they will say something when they are comfortable with it themself. Unfortunately, people are quick to judge how others should live and love - never considering that it does not matter as they are the same person no matter who they love. To come out is a very frightening thing as there are those people you think would be okay with it and they go absolutely bonkers. I commend those of you who are so accepting and nonjudgemental. It still amazes me that this is 2008 and people still act as though gays should be "put away". 
great thanks!
that's what i use so i think i'll give it a try when i can get a line out. thanks!
I have one of those! That would be great! SM
I have a lot of great suggestions from everyone! Thanks to all of you for your help. It can be a real problem and you have all really helped! I bought a spaghetti lifter some years ago. 
Well, that's great for you, and that's your right...
but it is not your right to tell others what their priorities should be, especially when you have minimal insight into their life.
The www is great, except for the (sm)
impersonalization aspect.
Great!
As for one whose been there, we sought professional help from a psychologist. Great help because when our daughter did not talk to us, she talked to the psychologist. Believe me, in this day and age, professional help is the way to go.
Great! Thanks! nm

THESE ARE GREAT!

great post :) wish more could share
Wow that was GREAT!!!!
I love what the old guy said!
great!
So you are in Nebraska? or is that for Northeast? I'm in Nebraska...i was also gifted a fab bread making book and have learned a lot along the way. that express bread recipe in the oster book is also v. good, esp for toasting. Didn't care for the other recipes in there much tho. Have fun!!
That's great to know. Thank you.
My cat who is no longer with us used to eat raw chicken at least once a week when I made it. Thankfully she never got sick on it. Luckily my other cat doesn't like "people food."
I think what you did was great.
I'm sorry it turned out that way. You are right, most kids don't play board games or card games any more and lack imagination and development that is necessary for school. I think you can have a mix of both but sadly many parents don't uphold guidelines in their household and it's easier for them to let the TV/video games babysit their children. It is also sad that they are acting so childish when you are grown adults with children of your own. I wouldn't make any effort to be around them or be friendly any further. The mom of the birthday boy, maybe invite her to coffee or a playplace for the kids, just the 2 of you and get to know her better. I can understand that and think it would help her to see what a good person you are and make her own opinion despite what the others may or may not say to her. If she doesn't seem receptive, let it go. You can't control what happens at school but keep your eyes and ears open. If there are any problems that develop between the 2 friends at school, I would address it with the teacher.
This is GREAT! - Thank you!!
I needed it, too! Thanks for posting.
That's great - thanks!
Thank you!
