when I roll in the driveway I see my dog sitting there staring out, waiting, waiting, and (sm)
When he sees me he yawns and stretches, then puts on this act of being all bored and sits on his tail so I cannot see it wagging... like he was not eagerly waiting for me the whole time and seeing me is no big deal. Every single time. If I have someone with me I'll say, "watch what Walter does..." and he does this every time. Oh, by the way, don't feel bad for this guy for having to wait for me once in while, he has the life of a king.
you're right, she sounds like she wants to pounce.

Sitting
I have three things to sit on - a rolling stool with a tractor seat, a straight chair with or without back pillow and an exercise ball. In this way, I can vary my posture, stay more alert, and even get a tiny bit of exercise with the ball.
I am sitting here laughing at both of you
What martyrs you sound like, working at night so you can be there always for those children, not a boyfriend so to put those kids first, sacrificing. I could almost throw up listening to all the people talking about their being a single mother, and? so? It is like a badge of honor. Women have raised children for long years before these days and did not bend over backwards trying to sacrifice, just part of raising children. I was a latchkey kid, my kids also (oh, guess what- I actually had to work away from the home in earlier years!!) and my grandchildren were latchkey kids. We ALL turned out alright, no gangsters, no murderers, upstanding people. The reason kids are out of control now is the way you pamper, pet and sit the kids on marshmellows and do not let them be real kids. Kids get hurt, part of life. You need to say you are sorry for the post about not watching her kid 24/7, ridiculous! And get a real life besides the children. There are other things in life, really there are.
Thanks so much for that. I was sitting here feeling SM
terrible, even after all these years and telling people who do not even know me is humiliating.
Don't want to take the focus off of the initial poster who is having this decision to make now, but please just let me say that I was emotionally drained and just coming out of a short but very abusive marriage. I met this man and we were friends, nothing more. That grew and grew and soon I was looking forward to going into work. . . THAT should have told me something right there! Then in a weak moment I went out with him and that was the beginning of the end. I was so in love with this man who made me finally feel good about myself and told me I deserved to be loved and treated right. I waited and waited for him to leave, even though he had little boys and that was killing me. I just could not see going on without him. After I wasted the time and suffered the heartache he was gone. Probably the only truthful thing he said to me on the phone was . . Don't cry over me. I'm not worth it. I come from a good decent family and this can happen to good people when you need to be loved. That is why I want to caution this woman again, please, please, do what is right. It's not the easy thing to do, but it is the right thing. If this man really values her, why is he still conversing and carrying on this friendship when he knows how she feels, and he knows he is not in a position to do anything about it?
Thanks gor hearing me out. I feel like I had my second shower of the day. You have a good heart to acknowledge me like you did.
i get low pay from sitting at the computer all day
actually I think my neck problems are from my computer use, staring up at the screen for so long
an 8 1/2 yo baby-sitting a 6 yo?
that seems really young, how long are they alone before the parents get home? Next summer I am considering letting my oldest who will be 14 baby-sit my youngest who will be 11 if i find a job outside the home, but even that makes me nervous.
i'm sorry i don't have any good advice for you. if it were me, i would be tempted to take him to karate class or something so he could learn to open up a can on the brother if necessary
hehe.... well, at least he's not just sitting there
;D
What is really odd is I am waiting for this
animal to break out any minute in a song I really can recognize.
I'm Still waiting on Mr. Right. . . NM

What are you waiting for?
Just wondering why you are still trying to figure out if you will stay 7 years later?
Have you really discussed it with him? Why, what, how does he really feel now?
You need to feel love and respected and that you can love and respect someone back.
Don't wait until you are 80 and then realize you should have left!
LOL She looks like she is waiting to ...sm
to take off or something.
I have a *to do list* sitting on my desk
every day because I can't remember anything and I'm early 40s. :)
I remember cat-sitting for a fellow-MT once.
She was a first-time cat owner also. They had a little Maine coon, and she claimed he didn't play. She was only a year old, so I thought that was strange. I dragged a string for her and she proceeded to show me an extremely playful side, leaping onto the couch, running across the back, leaping to a chair ... I was rolling on the floor over this supposed non-playing cat. So make sure you leave a string toy. Or do you have one of those wants with a feather on it? or the other fishing-rod style toys. My cats were crazy for those toys that required owner involvement. And forget trying to read - my cats insisted I pay attention to the game during play. Cat servant indeed.
When sitting down to a formal dinner
which way do the dishes get passed.
Clockwise or counter-clockwise around the table?
Just sitting here shaking my head
on this, you said it ridiculous and especially for the parents who pay for this. Shame on them all. And people are wondering what is happening with the kids now.
Wannie, they are probably sitting on their fat behinds
right now not offering much to society, as much as they would like to think they are special. They can look down their noses at those who have had to ask for assistance and say what they will because they have sad, pitiful lives and only feel superior lambasting others (I guarantee one of them is looking up the word lambasting right now?). Be prepared for some snappy, snarky comment from one of them. They are unhappy with themselves which is why they must degrade others. You have done nothing to warrant their scorn.
tis bilateral swelling from sitting. sm
When I put my feet up when I go to bed the swelling goes away. I am wondering if the TED hose really work, etc. etc. They both get pretty tight around the calf when this happens. I do worry that it might progress to a DVT so I try to move around as much as possible.
So cute! I'm going to be puppy sitting sm
a pug this coming week. Her name is Sadie, and she is 6 months old. She is SOOO cute. I kept her for a couple of days last week to make sure she would get along with my dogs okay, which she did after they got used to each other. She is my first experience with a Pug, and I really think she's adorable.
Call Waiting
Hi everyone...does anyone know the code to turn off call waiting before making a call? I forget...it's been a while. TIA!
ooooo, waiting again!!
]]
I had exactly the same reaction! Kept waiting - sm
for her to 'come alive' and really dance. I think it probably came back to bite her, since Helio won the whole thing, and deservedly so.
One I was at a restaurant waiting
in line for a bathroo stall. Finally a lady came out of onel and I went inside. There was urine ALL OVER the seat. I was just livid. Okay lady, if you are too scared to sit down to pee because of the germs, then for crying out loud, WIPE UP YOUR PEE so it's not there for some total stranger to have to deal with. Or hold it until you get home.
Gross, gross, gross.
you need to keep your butt muscles tight while sitting

I agree...just a bunch of yentas sitting around...
without much to say...I tend to think their main audience is the stay at home mom or others who most likely only get their news from them, don't seek out other sources. Whoppi Goldberg is Rosie only she is smart enough to research what she talks about.
I have 2 kitties too who love sitting under the tree. However,
my question is: Where did you find the Wii????? LOL
Anyone else get low back pain from sitting at the computer all day. Any
suggestions to help this.
Intense pain, especially sitting & pooping.
Added stool softeners for more comfort, changed diet to change the constipation. Try "Hemor-Rid" (spelling?) in the pink tube. Soothing, helps shrink them, and doesn't stink, like Prep-H does!
Hope U feel better soon!
My cat chewed through the cord on mine while sitting on my lap LOL

my neighbors waiting for snow outside
with a flashligh in North Carolina!!
Take the Tylenol 2nite instead of waiting until the
Also, tomorrow try some tomatoe juice - seriously it works! The acid from the juice helps the ole' belly/nausea problem!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
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!
still waiting on a tax rebate deposit
sending them out early my $%%
Waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Waiting for the schoolbus at age 6, on a windy day,
realizing I'd forgotten to put on underwear.
smart cookie on the waiting....and remember some
some states honor common-law marriages - living together as a couple for 7+ years - and there are laws protecting the spousal unit in those cases...don't know what state you are in....but think about that....*S*
When in doubt, do nothing :)
There are probably waiting lists for little dogs at the shelter and/or

I hear ya! I am waiting for at least sweater weather.
Doesn't look like it's coming soon.
Waiting, Harold and Kumar Go To Whitecastle,
She'll be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge
She will still have that little piece of your heart. I hope you feel peaceful, you did the loving thing.

Forgot to mention I was waiting to see Michael Flatley and SM
after I picked the pan up he came on! That dance almost made the carpet deal with it!
Finally gave in and while waiting for work yesterday
Put the pictures in and even looked up relatives on facebook I have lost touch with... so I feel a lot better. I wrote to people I don't see or talk to on the i-net, people like family and friends who the family has lost touch with and I feel great about it! So, it was worth doing!
I'm waiting for a quote from Tom Cruise to surface, being he's the expert on EVERYTHING. nm

Most people would assume mom was cremated and waiting to bury urn
at least that's what I think.
Hayseed..you crack me up.. I needed that. I was sitting here on the verge of tears..depressed..and
you made me laugh. Sadly, even her dad couldn't save her though. She lived with him but he was on the verge of a heart attack ( I feel his pain). He said he tried to avoid going home because he would get heart palpitations which I now recognize as anxiety that I also get around her. He just couldn't deal with it anymore. She drives everyone away and that hurts me too but yeah I keep thinking the only way I'll ever get away from her is enroll in a witness protection program..and of course, I feel guilty for wanting to get away from her.
Remember that it's just home cooking, not gourmet stuff, that you'd be waiting for. nm

Update: I am waiting for doc to schedule an abdominal CT for me - sent my husband a message saying
that they will be scheduling me for a CT today or tomorrow. His answer: 10-4, I hope you get your health in order. Exercise please.
I am having abdominal pain, back pain, bleeding, etc. but I guess if I exercise it will fix all that.
What's the difference between talking on cell and talking to person sitting across from you?
You should be ignoring people at other tables and MYOB.
