Sometimes when I've popped a really big one, that night I will dream about little white worms coming out of my skin.

Yuck yuck yuck yuck yuck!

In the kitchen - where you prep food and possibly eat?  How sanitary is that?

The bedroom isn't too bad, I guess, but isn't there anywhere else you can put the things?

And how many cats do you have that you need 4 litter boxes?

I sense a weird *cat lady* amongst us.

Last year we bought a bag of potatoes, and didn't use them before they started to sprout. Then I baked all of them and froze them in freezer bags.  Took one out of freezer and thawed in microwave when we wanted one.  Delicious.  I just put butter on mine.

A Co worker/friend mentioned to me today that she had an embarassing problem, but wasn't sure if she needed to go to have it checked out. She said she occassionally had an odor in her belly button. She treats it by applying peroxide to it nightly.

I think her problem may be an infection of some kind anyway I suggested she have it looked at. Another co worker said it was a common problem & no big deal, I personaly never had the problem, the other co worker said she gets it all the time & that all it is, is lint trapped in there & then gets irritated. What cha think?

Okay, we have had a problem with mice.  H set some traps and we caught some but everytime I cooked something in the oven it stunk.  So, I have not used the oven.  H finally had time to remove the top part of the stove and found the problem.  On top of the oven, underneath where the burners are, (that part) there were dead mice.  He said babies.  The insulation on top of the oven is gone.  He doesn't know really what to do.  He tried to get insulation from the hardware store, but was told that insulation that you use in houses won't do.  He went to a place where they fix stoves and sell used ones and they say that if it smells like mice, they chunk them.  I asked H if they were just saying that to sell us one of theirs.  He said he did not know and he did not want think he can eat another meal cooked on that stove.  We cannot really afford payments on a new one and  he said not one of theirs is below $200 used.  I told him well, maybe we should just rely on the crock pot and the microwave for a while.  I can also can fry eggs on my waffle iron.  Man, I have got cakes, bread, cookies that I so wanted to bake.  H wanted to make a pizza but when I reminded him we did not have an oven, his face fell.   It is missed terribly. 

He did find some holes in the wall behind the stove where they (Mice) gnawed through the wall and is getting some foam as we speak, write... 

What would you do?  Right now, I am trying to think of things I can sell. 

What are we, in kindergarten here?  Geez, the OP was simply celebrating the fact that she had a millineum baby.  There was nothing graphic about her post.  She didn't give a blow by blow description of the conception process.  I'm sure a lot of people ring in the new year in bed.

I think it's time for you and your parents to have THE talk! 

Let's just call you stinky girl

My son is 11 and the last few days has had a few "wet farts" -- there's no color to it, but enough to soak through his jeans.  He didn't even notice it, said he didn't feel wet, but we noticed it and so did another child at school.  At first, I thought he just sat in something wet, but when he came home from school with it, I took a second look at his jeans and noticed the position of it was more in line with "an accident."  He says he doesn't remember passing gas.  There's a slight discoloration to it and a slight odor. 

I've never had this happen to me personally except when I was getting over diarrhea.  Has anyone else had this happen without being sick?  Any ideas on what could be causing it?  I'm hoping it's not a rectocele or IBS. 

I have taken care of and have potty trained a lot of little boys over the years all starting before 2 and the best thing I found was putting cheerios in the toilet and having them try to shoot the cheerios, like target practice.  I have also used fruit loops and made a game of which color they could hit.  Anything that floats and is flushable is fair game.  They love the game and always want to go potty.

If it is warm where you live a few days going pee outside works too.  They can go when they want, do it themselves and learn how to control their urges quickly. 

On the other hand, #2 for most boys I have found is harder.  They usualy hold it for too long and need to get their bowels on a regular cycle.  I have had a couple boys up until 4 hold it all day long and then go home and their mother would put a diaper on them so they would go and then want to be changed right away.  As soon as the mothers stopped that though the child went to the potty fine.  I would recomend talking with his doctor if that happens.   

Good Luck!!!  It will happen when he is ready. 

Here's the one I use...it's yummy...enjoy!

1 box, about 8 ounces or so, of elbow mac noodles

shredded cheese (I use the 4 cheese blend usually) about 2 cups...

1 small can evaporated milk

1 can cheddar cheese soup

1 egg

salt & pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cook noodles until mostly done, but not all the way;drain.  Mix in a large bowl the cheddar cheese soup, evaporated milk, and egg.  Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the noodles in with the soup mixture (I usually cool my noodles a bit before adding by running under cool water for a minute or 2).  Don't add too many noodles or the mac 'n cheese will be dry.

Spray a round, deep casserole dish with nonstick spray.  Add a layer of noodle mix, top with cheese; repeat with another layer of noodle mix and top with remaining cheese.  Don't skimp on the cheese either!  Add about a cup to each layer, depending on how much you like cheese (we love it)!  Bake for about 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is bubbly. 

It's seriously delicious.  It's the only recipe my whole family uses for mac 'n cheese!

any and all kinds

YUCK -- but my kids like noodles -- the egg noodles in turkey broth.  They also like the turkey drumsticks and the wishbone.  They love Stove Top stuffing, but not homemade stuffing.  They don't eat much of the mashed potatos or gravy.  They love deviled eggs.  Are my kids weird? 

One year, I thought I'd make candied sweet potatoes for the kids, thinking they'd like ooey-gooey, make-my-teeth-hurt sweet, but turns out I was wrong.  They didn't touch it. 

Truth be told, most kids don't eat much on holidays.  Too much excitement I think.  Try to make sure they have a good breakfast, then let them pick what they want to eat.  I usually ask my kids to try 1 thing, just a small amount.  When they come back later, I give them a turkey sandwich (if they like turkey) or PB&J.  Don't stress yourself out over what the kids are eating.  They'll be fine.  It's only 1 day.
