I put mine in the crock pot and they just fall off the bone
Although that wouldn't be an option for you now since it takes all day.
We are emailing each other directly
now and I sent a CD of a song to her that I wrote from Westminster! This is great. I wrote it for family, friends, etc. and never, never thought it would go the places it has gone. I guess for the week plus we connected on this board I never knew a gab board restricted to gabbing bach and forth. Who knew? Also, what was the harm of getting to know one another a little before we exchanged personal email? Thanks.
There is an autoimmune board - see directly above your post. nm

In our county, they summon people directly from
the registered voters pool. I'd always heard that from friends who worked at the county clerk's office, but didn't really give it much thought. I get summoned a couple of times a year & my husband never did, then when I talked him into registering to vote, now he gets summoned all the time too...
Important addition to MIL problem directly below this posting

Oh, by the way, 3 weeks ago my DH told my MIL that I was upset with her and why. She made light of it, explaining that she was just "joking" and "being funny" and of course she didn't mean anything by it.


If it were my son telling me that I had offended my DIL in some way I would call her immediately and talk it through. However, my phone has not rung yet, and I'm pretty sure it's not going to.


I can see her sitting over there coiled like a king cobra expecting me on Thanksgiving and I'm so uncomfortable just thinking about it.


My husband said that she was just joking and to suck it up (again), and just go over. I'm really stressed out about this. Any suggestions would be great.


She didn't, she is just going on her bone

About the bone loss, I have also
I had to have a dental implant placed in front to replace a tooth in front, the one right next to the front tooth (maybe canine? not sure) but anyway it was expensive, $4,000 for 1 tooth and it took over a year for the process. I had to have some bone grafting, wait awhile, do something else, wait awhile. They gave me a "flipper" tooth but it never worked well and basically tried not to wear anymore than I had to. After a year I now have a good smile again. I know about bone loss but I hate to go thru a long drawn out process again like this one was. You might not have as much bone loss so if you had to have this, might not take as long.
Thanks to all, but with the loss of bone to hold the
teeth in, it seems I don't have many options.  I just met this dentist, who is just wonderful, on Wednesday through a friend.  I am going back in 2 weeks to have an old filling replaced that has cracked.  I will talk in more detail with him about options when I begin losing my teeth.  I was told I had about a 40% bone loss on the bottom especially in the front.  Thanks again. 
My cat has bone cancer in her jaw, I'm not thinking clearly and need opinions please

She is near the end of her life I think.  The vets (we have taken her to a total of three) said we would know when the time was right to put her to sleep. The last vet gave her some pain pills but she has ALWAYS hated pills and of course she definately wants nothing to do with it, can smell it coming a mile away, and I just can't force her to take it.  However, they say that kind of cancer is painful so I know she is in pain.  I want to know if you think it is more humane for me to let her have her wish and not be traumatized at this time of her life or if it would be more humane for me to somehow get her to take that dang pill twice a day.  Last time I tried she started foaming at the mouth even though I don't think the pill got anywhere near her mouth (I had it disguised in a piece of chicken but she wouldn't open her mouth for it).


Thanks....


My SIL makes it this way and the meat basically falls off of the bone.
I know that once she gets the pork seasoned, she puts in a small roasting pan and then sets it in a "bano maria" at 250 degrees like for 10-12 hours depending on the size. I will see if I can get the recipe from her. As far as the seasoning, it all depends which way you want it, for Cuban style mojo seasoning, it can be bought already made in a bottle at the grocery's store in the international food section, probably Goya brand. Then, there is the other seasoning with the oregano, salt, vinegar, garlic, black pepper, and olive oil.
you are nothing more than a finger-pointing

my index finger boo-boo
My son (26) has 2 sweet pet rats. I decided to get him a couple more for his birthday (it's the closest I'll come to grandchildren lol).

I stuck my hand in the cage (forgetting they were not my GOOD grandchildren) and one bit my index finger. It bled for hours and throbbed and ached for days. Working was horrible. Band-Aid made it worse because I couldn't feel the keys.

It is still kind of sore and this is going on a couple weeks now.

Don't worry about medically. I'm up-to-date on tetanus, etc., and I haven't died yet...

Didn't mean to laugh, but visualizing your DH cracked me up.

Feel better!!
You can see if they will like Vaseline off your finger.
Yup, regular old petroleum jelly. Some animals will lap it up like a treat. Or you can scrape it off your finger onto the roof of the mouth and they can just deal with it, LOL. (The guy who invented it ate a tbsp a day and lived to be about 90).

There are also cat foods that are specially designed for hairball elimination.


This mom is lifting more than one finger

I don't think there is a shortage of love from this mom towards her kids and if a mom really wants her kids to do well in the long term, there comes a time when the hand that folds closed can open back up later to welcome back responsible adult children.  Today's young adults are so into themselves and unprepared for the world and let's face it, the world is a pretty scary place to be in today's economy. 


Everyone needs to know where the limits are, whether it is behind the wheel of a car and obeying a speed limit or not sure what to do next in life.  This mom should not have to make a choice about her own sanity and that of her kids.  OR if they put her in that position, they need to realize the parts they played to make it be that way.  Putting the 19 on notice that $50/wk is expected plus one chore gives him an opportunity to make a choice.  Making sure the gk's are taken care of while the daughter reorganizes herself without making mom shoulder the responsibility of the family is generous.  It seems this mom's finger has been bent too far and does not fit the experience you had.


Caught my index finger in the
front door storm door this afternoon. One shriek wasn't enough, so DH had to hear a second one. I iced it and elevated it and still it throbbed. Feels fine after a hydrocodone though, and I can type! I'm glad I'm off today though so I can rest it. Whew, that was close.

Oh, and when I shrieked, DH was sitting at the computer desk. He tried to get up so fast he banged his ankle, so now he's limping.

We're such clutzes.
most favorite finger food sm

I am requested to bring this everywhere.


Buy two kielbasas (I use Hillshire original polska, you can use lean but I use the other). Boil in water for about 7 min., do not overboil or will cause to break.


Drain to get ride of grease and cool just a little, then cut into 1/2 to 1 inch rounds (easy) and then simmer in currant jelly (one jar) or if you can't find currant, use grape. Put aside in refrigerator. Before the party, reheat in microwave and get rid of excess jelly, put in wooden toothpicks to serve on platter. People tell me they "can't leave them alone." Big hit.


Are you flipping us off or wagging your finger?
I can't tell. LOL
I hope it was a finger wagging! LOL nm

Don’t care about on his finger, wish he would get another earring
for 1 ear like he had prior to our marriage, thought it was sexy. I have no problems with him not wearing a wedding band, just does not mean that much to me either way, very trusting fellow.
I use finger nail polish remover. It stinks though.

At the base of the finger or at the base of the palm near the wrist? nm

Don't know about your God, but mine
my God is more forgiving than that!

She is not doing anyone any harm, so to say she will burn in h*** for celebrating the fun part of Halloween, not evilness, is the whole reason I do not attend church!

I never did it with mine. For one, I would have been
too embarrassed. My mother used to do it, but we have come a long way since then. I find it kind of primitive. I think nothing is wrong with it in your own home, but in public, I really think you should think about it. There are all kinds of weirdos out there and you just don't know what is in their minds. I see nothing wrong with breastfeeding INSIDE YOUR HOME, but there are folks who would get offended by doing it in public. I would not be offended, but really...I think you could put some of that breast milk in a bottle before you go out.
Mine is up

and FAKE -- Me and my fam are all allergic!


Have red/white/blue/silver these.  Looks awesome.  Have lights up outside too!!!!


HAPPY HOLIDAYS!



Mine would be...
Laxatives
Laytex gloves
a metal detector

mine too
have to light a fire under his butt in an attempt to get him out of the house.
Mine did nothing at all, at least he went out and tried - sm
more than my DH did, though mine did ask me what I wanted, I told him, he told me to go buy it. This is typical for him. He used to get me beautiful jewelry for b-day, Christmas, annivarsary, that lasted for about 2 years or so, then it has been buy yourself what you want. I do not get bent (what is the point) though a little effort on his part would be nice. He did surprise me on our 10-year anniversary though this year, got me a beautiful opal necklace. As for the kids, my one daughter gave me 2 things, my other nothing, but she gives me wonderful drawings and such all the time, she just has a selfish streak I guess and does not think of others only herself. I just talked to her about this, maybe in the future she will remember our little talk and some good will come from it. My DH needs to learn somehow to have the kids get things for mom on special occasions, yours does too it seems. My neighbor has the same problem with her husband. Basically they are lazy people. He does none of the shopping, gift wrapping, packing to leave (except for his stuff of course), etc. He did buy 1 or 2 gifts, which I of course wrapped. This will probably never change until the kids are gone and he is an old man. I have seen it happen but not until grandchildren are on the scene and these men become model husbands for some reason, whether it is out of boredom or fear of the wife finally saying "I'm out of here, go fend for yourself", or they get struck my lightening, who knows, but beating yourself up about it is not the answer. If you are truly unhappy, get out, or kick him out. But if this is his "flaw" then either live with it, and buy yourself what you want each year or do something about it. It is your call how you deal with it.
mine went away
I had one on my nose for about a year and all of a sudden it just vanished and has never come back. It always bothered me because it was so ugly, but it never hurt and I didn't have to pay to zap it.
Two of mine have had and he will run
fever if he does not drink or eat the popsickles and get sicker. You probably know but you can cool him down with tepid water, try that. You will really have to keep up with you have to drink or eat cool, cold so he will not run that fever.
Yes, mine are
never and I mean never tempt fate. i could never say I was sick or someone else sick say if I wanted to be off from work, no, no, might come true. I have to knock on wood when I say something that is an iffy thing, don’t want to jink.
LOL, I had mine do just that
I gave him a testing tape. It took him hours to get through a page, typing with two fingers, with everything lumped together in one big paragraph, headings and all. Not to mention all the mistakes. lol He now says he has no idea how I do this. I told him I don't know either. : )
LOL! Mine does that too!
And I love how they can never puke/cough up hairballs on the tile, they always have to find a carpeted area (which stains). They can be in the middle of the tile kitchen and find the only rug!
Mine do that too! LOL!
I have tiles in my kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room, yet they decide to leave me presents in the living room or bedrooms where it is carpeted! I own a steam cleaner just for that purpose! LOL!
ok, here's mine...
Awesome: Ellen Degeneres (sp?)

Lame: Oprah
Mine is like that too. (sm)
I don't know why they so strongly believe that aggressive driving is good driving. DH always wants to drive or else he goes nuts, but when I occasionally end up being the driver, he needs to keep quiet so I can concentrate. Just because his BP is through the roof shouldn't mean mine has to be. Lately even when I'm the passenger I don't put up with it. As he starts up, complaining about traffic the moment we've pulled out of the driveway, I calmly remind him he'll live through it. He is starting to realize what a pain he is in the car.
Mine did this ONCE -
We were first married and actually WERE, uh, busy...You never saw someone hit the door running so fast. It never happened again. However, if I were you I would definitely lock my door and put up a sign asking everyone to please knock. It is YOUR house.
Here's how I got out of mine...
I called the cell phone company, said I was trying to cancel but got disconnected and had to call back.  When the rep said I had to pay termination on both phones I said the previous rep said I only had to be for 1 phone disconnect fee.  After going back and forth a little bit, the rep caved and only charged me for 1 disconnect fee.  Worth a try.  Good luck.
Mine
used to go on "business trips" and would never check in as well and came up with a world of reasons why. He was seeing other women. That also played a role in lowering my self-esteem, but now I look back and actually feel sorry for him. He's alone and will never have the respect or relationship I have with our children. It's just pitiful, but he made his bed.

I hope you have family you can talk to and get support from. If you need to email me, please feel free. I just know how you feel and I hurt for you right now, but I promise you, it'll all be okay.
Here are mine...sm
Knitting, crochet, cross stitch are my favorites, but the projects keep piling up in a corner because there is no time, and too tired to get through even 5 pages of a book at bedtime.  Wish I had an adventure-filled life to blame it on. 
I got mine a GPS....sm
he gets lost VERY easily so I figured he'd love it.
mine are like that too.
The last time one of them was home he straightened out one my cupboards and they like to cook with me and play board or card games.
That is exactly how I fix mine, YUM! (nm)

First mine said he was gay

He deliberately married me for a "front" (he was in the military) and didn't bother to tell me he was gay until we'd been married 6 months.  After years of confusion, he ended up having a sex change after marrying a second woman and having a child with her.


If you're lucky, he's just curious.  But you really need to get the truth out of him, and be prepared for the worst.  If he's really confused about his sexuality it may take him years to figure out who he "is" and what he really wants, so it may be difficult for him to tell you the truth because he might be in denial about it himself.


Mine was only 10 or 11, but she had - sm
aggressive, metastatic breast cancer that spread to her lungs. Vet said I would "know" when to have her PTS.

I knew when she didn't want to do anything but sit on the couch and stare off into space. No longer wanted food or attention, just occasional water, and kind of a blank stare. Was also out of breath all the time. So I had a long talk with her about it, and she just seemed to be saying, "Do it - I'm ready."
Well here's mine (sm)
I can lean on the slacker side sometimes too so here is what I do: get my tea- start half an hour early - read any interesting news on Yahoo, check and respond to emails, look at MTstars ;-) - just get that out of the way. Through the day I tell myself I can't switch over and check email or anything until I have done a certain number of minutes, etc., which earns me an email break. I also have motivational music on my computer - like The Blur's Woohoo! song that I play in between when I am doing things that don't require listening, like sending my work and things like that.
here's mine
Life is good, I am SO blessed!
Mine is on my arm
I want a new one on my back but i'm afraid to get it done here; my one and only was done in Austin, Texas. Mine's pretty big, it takes up almost my entire upper arm.
yes, I got mine on 05/02
I was under the assumption that married people get 1200. Not true. We only got 600. The VA took 167.00 of it, so that left us with 433. Not exactly what I was expecting, but will come in handy.
I'd rather be where you are but here's mine:

Mine does this too
And I am in my 20s. I have them sometimes many times a day for a week straight or so. I am going to my cardiologist again soon but I assume it is nothing to worry about because they dont seem worried. I have a feeling they will do a Holter or something, but it is so hard to catch them because it seems it essentially just does it when it feels like it.
Mine is not like that but just as bad
After 25 years of being together he still has most of his stuff. He doesn't touch my stuff and I don't touch his. It is so hard to get him out of the mindset of keeping everything. He says there is a lot he wants to get rid of but the actuality of doing it? He can't bring himself to part with it even though he says he needs to lighten up.
