My sister in law gave birth to my niece at 4:16 this morning and I am sure that people will raise their eyebrows everytime she tells someone her DOB.

Morning baby, morning adult. Kids born at 11:30AM (both) are night owls, however. Go figure! :) nm

I was born at 5 a.m. something and I am a morning person.

Born at 11:30 a.m. and most definitely a morning person...

Born at 10:46 a.m. and defininitely a morning person!!

Outsourcing topic on Good Morning America this morning....

Ok, maybe I should just stay in bed LOL How about "every morning" not everyone morning. Wow. C

My niece does this
My 14 year old niece does this to me, I finally blocked her from my incoming list and she doesn't know the difference.
get yourself on the phone now. your niece will thank you later. MUCH later probably, but oh well.

I wish my niece would read this...
she has a Sheltie that does NOTHING BUT BARK, at every pin drop, every car that goes by, every shadow that passes.  It truly is enough to drive you nuts.
Would your niece be interested ...sm
in talking with one of the agencies that works with pregnant women that really goes in depth with her about the options? If you know anyone who had an abortion try to have her talk to them because I've not known any woman who had one that didn't wonder about the baby and what the child may have been like if they hadn't aborted it, and despite what the abortion doctors try to say - it is a surgical procedure and ends the life of a child and there are emotional implications from that. She should also talk with women who have given up a child for adoption as well. If she's serious about not wanting to keep the child then she should consider adoption and realize that there are resources out there to help her through the pregnancy, including the pregnancy bills, and alternatives that will give the child to a loving home instead of a dumpster.
pregnant niece
I had a similar situation and my niece was 19 at the time. She was not sleeping around, was with 1 guy but not using OCP or anything else because it was her sexual relationship and she thought she "couldn't get pregnant." She had sex ed and was told better, but apparently she listened to her stupid friends instead of her teachers.

I'm a little more hardened than you - I would have told her that I was taking her advice and minding my own business.

I'm not opposed to abortion. I think it is much more of a sin to bring a child into the world when you cannot support s/he and do not love s/he unconditionally.

Your niece made a mistake, a big one, but she should not have to forfeit her chance at a life because of a sexual encounter. If she can't remember to take the pill, she needs to get a patch. But she should be using a barrier method of some kind to prevent STDs.

The fact that she is not responsible enough to use birth control should be a clue that she is not responsible enough to raise a child.
My niece is a product of IVF (sm)
I remember only too well my sister-in-law's tears as she and my brother-in-law (husband's brother) struggled to have their first child.  Finally, they tried IVF and had their first daughter, my niece and my Godchild.  She just made her First Communion a couple of weeks ago.  They had two more girls after her, both through IVF.  (They are 7, 5, and 3).  I know those 3 little girls are so adored.  Mom and dad are going to be paying that debt down for quite a while, but I know that they, and I'm sure everyone who has gone through the same, will say that it was worth it.
WRONG - my niece does it and you can
only have so many parties before your friends and/or relatives are ready to choke you.  LOL.  It's really a pyramid and good if you get in at the beginning.  Not a good time to sell it now - it will be a thing of the past very soon.
I really have to clarify that my niece..sm
really isn't the kind of girl who would send anything suggestive. 
I despise ain't! My niece says it sometimes and
She's way too smart to talk like that, and my kids spend a lot of time with her, and now I've heard them say it a few times too.  grrrrr.  I'll have to tell them that little riddle - they'll love that!
My niece is getting married later this month BUT they are
actually only throwing themselves an engagement party as their BIG wedding and reception will be next year.  They are really getting married this year, I wanted that clear, they just have to save for their big fairy tale wedding.  Anyway, we're invited to this little ceremony this year along with the "engagement" party.  What is an appropriate gift for this kind of occasion?  I'm not a cheapo but want something appropriate as next year are the big doings and of course the gift then should be bigger and nicer, or go with the nice gift now and the appropriate 1-year anniversary gift next year.  Any ideas ladies or gents?  Thanks.
It's rough. I have a niece who's having trouble. sm

The sad part about being a newbie is all the hype the MT schools throw at you about "You can work at home!  You can make $40,000 a year!, blah, blah, blah!"


I have a niece going through the same thing.  She paid for school, graduated with top honors and couldn't find a thing for months.


What a lot of the MT schools don't tell you is about the real world. The big companies are looking for turnaround time and making money. "Newbies" (and by the way I hate that word) are a risk. 


I just started working at home after 15 years in the medical field, but had to start  as a receptionist after spending 8 years as a legal secretary/paralegal. It didn't take long for the docs to realize that I could spell and I could type and I offered to try and type their reports. With a lot of help from the docs I found I loved doing MT. I took on a part-time MT at home job at nights 1 1/2 years ago for a local person, took a medical terminology class and then took the "plunge."


So anyway, (sorry to go on so long), my advice to you is to try to find something locally, if you can, even just signing patients in at a local hospital part time and offer your MT knowledge and typing ability to human resources.  Once you have even 6 months of experience, I'm sure you will be taken more seriously.


My niece did eventually find part time work and is working at home, but she's getting paid 5 cents a line.


Best of luck to you.


 


A co-worker of my niece took in a family
When she went to work, they cleaned her out, including her kitchen utensils!!!
my niece is an ultrasound tech and has sm
been for about 8-9 years. When she went in there was a shortage of ultrasound techs (kind of like the MT profession). I think her schooling was 2 years. She had to take some pre-requisite stuff that she didn't have in highschool. She makes great money. But she told me that there is getting to be an overabundance of US techs now. Use to be you had to go through the whole radiology program just to even think about being an ultrasound tech. Because of the shortage they took the US tech out of the radiology program and started programs independently. I am wondering if US is going to go the way of MT and there will be so many of them and not enough jobs.

On the positive side of it, they have many options available. There are traveling US techs that go from state to state or just facility to facility. Go for it!
My niece was involved in a similar situation..sm
This man, my father-in-law, her grandfather recently grabbed her breast and butt and tried to kiss her. We all thought he was a saint and could do no wrong. I find it hard to believe that your stepfather just started this behavior. He may have done things like this before. I told my niece to tell her grandmother. It did not go over well but in the end, she believed her granddaughter. She chose to stay with this jerk, but she also still has a relationship with her granddaughter. The granddaughter does not go over there anymore but grandma goes to see her. We've warned other family members to stay away. Later, it came out that he fondled his stepdaughter when she was 14. We have also found pictures of a neighbor in her bikini on his computer. My niece was 25 when this happened. The incident with the stepdaughter was 25 years ago. That's why you should be very careful about your stepfather. I would just tell your mother and stay away from your stepfather. Don't be afraid of the person with the big mouth. This shouldn't be kept a secret. Tell everyone. My husband's family wants to hide this from everyone because they'll think badly of the grandfather. Too bad for him. I've told everyone who will listen. He at least admitted to it. I think everyone who comes in contact with him should be aware that he's a pervert. I wouldn't even talk to the stepfather. Just stay away from him. Good luck in what ever you choose.
I would think you'd make lots of money. My niece had her sm

eyelids and eyebrows done a few years ago, and I don't know what the final cost was, but the DOWN PAYMENT was $800!!! 


Good luck! 


I have a niece studing to be a PA. I told her to call me when she starts dictating sm
I told her to be sure to ENUNCIATE, spell difficult names. I hope that will give us one PA that will be clear. LOL
Born again

I am a Christian, so I understand witnessing to others; nevertheless, I have to say that I don't agree with that approach, because I've seen it fail before - not with everyone - but for the most part, that stance ends up driving people away rather than drawing them.  People don't want to hear someone tell them they're going to hell because they're doing this, that, or the other.  Maybe they do need to hear that from somebody, but it still comes across as judgmental, and being judgmental is something that Christians are NOT to be.  The old saying "you can bring a horse to water, but you can't make him drink" applies here.   He needs to understand that he can't force people to convert to Christianity just because he says all those things to them.  Maybe you could suggest that he not come on so heavy, and instead try inviting people to visit his church, and leave it at that.

Go to the bookstore. Buy him a book called "Jesus Freaks" (I am serious). He will love it. Then ask him about the book. Whether he is Buddhist, Christian, or atheist, it is always a great gift to have someone listen to your view. Americans view themselves as a Christian nation, and you just might learn something. keep an open mind, and stick to the subject of the book. Good luck and I hope the experience is a good one for both of you. The book is very interesting in the depth of human compassion and passion - no matter what your personal beliefs are.
I was born at 6:40 p.m. but am
definitely a morning person.
BTW, I was born in the USA..nm

Hey, I WAS born in the south and I don't get it either.
But then again, I guess south Florida is not considered "The South," right?

I live in conservative N FL now and well, it's different..

You and msbeanctr are right on target and very eloquet.
If you know the time of day you were born, sm

please tell us, and if you are a day person or a night person.  I was born at 11:50 a.m., and am very much a night person.   I don't seem "with it" until noonish every day. 


I've always wondered if our birth time might be indicative of what hours we function best (or whatever hours we prefer to function). 


Let's see!!!


 


 


Born in the early AM and that is when I
function best.
Born at 9:36 a.m. - Day person. nm

My daughter was born at 1:28 a.m. and if she is
doesn't even get in the shower till oh, about 9:00 p.m.   And she sleeps till 1 or 2 p.m. if she doesn't have to work.  Drives me nuts!  But then, I was born at 7:00 a.m. and I like to get up early and then am falling asleep by 10, 11 p.m. at the latest. 
Born at 1:23 p.m. and definitely a night owl! nm

Kittens being born..HELP...
any advice on what to do with these kittens? Mom has decided to have them in a paper grocery bag (did not like any of the places we had set up for her!) She is just a kitten herself, a stray who showed up pregnant. One has already been stillborn, not sure how many more to follow! I know to keep the other cats away from her, but I have got appointments in town all day and can't just have her in a paper sack? Is it okay to put her and the sack into one of the boxes or what? Any help would be appreciated...TIA, the new grandma!
just those born from 1946 to 1964

ages 41 to 59

too many "rug rats" here.

I guess pedophiles are born that way too. Just can't help themselves and
Gays are pushing their lifestyle. I prefer don't ask don't tell and for gawd's sake don't make a movie about cowboys and gay sex.
I was born 4:31 p.m. and most definitely am a night person.

My daughter was born with hydrocephalus
and is shunted. Two years ago on our way to the Milwaukee Zoo she had an extremely abrupt shunt failure (fine that morning, and then a seizure and starting to lose consciousness in the van.. just out of the blue), and ended up with a helicopter ride back to Madison and into surgery. Every day that I drop her off at school, I worry about if that will happen again, if they will recognize what's going on. She has a medical bracelet, and we've talked to the school and the teachers many times about it, but it still drives me crazy not to be able to be with her and see how she is. I do know that even though they have her whole history in front of them, she was still rollerblading and doing tumbling, etc., in gym class, which I didn't know about, and considering she has the shunt on the back of her head, it would have been nice to know. We won't have those problems at home.
You can be born gay or with an attraction to goats. You just don't follow through
on your instincts and attractions and sodomize the person/animal you are attracted to.
Born at 7 p.m. and definitely prefer the mornings. I think it's an age thing though.
Great sunrise and new hopeful expectations for the day.
Born at 8:30 pm, totally a night person, NM
