I always carry hand sanitizer and I don't hesitate to cover my mouth / nose sm

Posted By: Squeegie on 2008-09-17
In Reply to: i think i'm catching a cold - grrrrr....

if someone starts coughing. I don't care if anyone looks at me oddly - i don't like breathing in their germs. Also think about upping your vitamin intake, to support and boost your immunse system.

Despise that wide-open mouth yawn right in front of my face w/o a hand or arm up to cover it.

Eyes, nose, and mouth - nothing else
I know I should use a moisturizer, but I don't (just plain ol lazy). I know I should also wash my face every day but I don't (again lazy). So only the obvious is on my face.
My daughter has hand, foot and mouth disease
She has 4 ulcers in her mouth and, of course, is in pain and won't eat anything. I put some cereal and milk in the blender this morning and she drank that okay, but her poor little mouth is really painful. We tried the saltwater rinses, but that didn't help. We have been using Orajel on the biggest sore, but was wondering if anyone has any other ideas for pain relief. She's been coping pretty good with the blisters on her hands and feet so far, but this is only the 2nd day. Hopefully, this will be over soon. Thanks for any help!
Ended up taking her to stat care last night...not hand foot and mouth. sm
Ended up that she had an allergic reaction to a Chestnut tree that she had been playing on!!! She had a few on her toes because she had been wearing sandles and was climbing on a fallen tree. She was picking the leaves and "seeds" and picking them open. The oil from the tree gave her a reaction and caused the blisters to form. Thanks for asking...and thanks to all who answered my first post!
Any craft fairs in your area? Or stores that carry hand-crafted items regularly? Look online

Would not hesitate for 1 second
I go on tours by myself although married because my husband drives for a living and when he takes a vacation he wants mostly to stay around the home. I had a trip of a lifetime last year to Alaska, flew and met a group there and magical trip and this past year I took tour with same folks, met up in Utah and toured 6 states in 7 days. I anticipate more in coming years. My daughter says if I could make trips by myself, so could she (she is in her 30s)so last year and this year she went to Cancun. She has friends but they don't seem to be able to coordinate time off to go together. Before this husband and I married for years I took my children and went places, Carribean, Mexico, Jamaica, and took my daughter at the age of 12 and she and I went to Greece. Nothing holds me back about traveling. I have the fever. Go for it!

Right on the nose
So....TRUE....TRUE....I just found this out TODAY......
thank you. I probably should have just kept my mouth
closed. As I stated, I was venting. I found out that my husband has to work on Christmas Day and I was very frustrated at that particular moment. Maybe I learned my lesson though and will keep my mouth shut from now on. I didn't realize that it would turn into such a controversial thread and I apologize for that. Have a blessed Christmas!
Btw, he used his mouth but not in the way you would
asfd
VR said the nose was dressed with
1/2 inch puberty (paper tape). That is why human ears are needed.
someone picking their nose
If I have to shake hands with someone who was coughing, rubbing their nose, if I see kids picking their nose or eating their boogers! I completely freak out!

I can clean up cat barf when everyone else in the house is screaming and running in the other direction!
Really? The nose is all wrong . . .
To me and even my daughters the nose looks different.  We have been looking at different pictures and even some of the others where his is alive and well the chin/check bones look different between two "healthy Jackson's".  I am hearing/reading he did use body doubles.  Who knows what he looked like for real.  I'm not sold that he's really gone.  To many holes in the story.  He fired his regular staff 3 months ago and got a new crew.  Hasn't seen his family recently -- backed out of a B-day party.  All the medical information.  Like he died an hour after the injection in his home.  EMS claims they couldn't get him breathing at 12:21 -- it is hours at the hospital before he was pronouced dead?  He had to be DOA when he got there.  EMS said the body was already cold.  Why would doctors knowingly work on a dead body for hours????  More holes in what is being said than a slice of swiss.  Besides in the 911 call the caller never revealed who the 50-year-old male was.  Reports say no one knew Jackson even lived at that address.  How then did the media get this photo of him?  Smells funny to me, but that's just my take on it.  The guy as a master at staging and reinventing himself.

Now my mouth is really watering
and you know I love a regular hamburger also with lots of olives and, like you, those grilled onions. We usually have the red as they seem to agree with our stomachs more. I used to love Krystal hamburgers but the last 1 (yeh right, more like 4) I ate, I really paid for those little onions on them.
Well, actually, watching everything you put into your mouth is not
really living, is it?!?! I agree with your post to a point, I think most people try to eat healthy these days, but personally I enjoy a Big Mac supersize meal with a Coke, an entire bag of chips or a HUGE slab of cheesecake once in a while. Gotta live a little ;)
gees you really want to carry this on, don't you..sm
maybe my body will become worm food, but my soul will not be here and nor will I care, at that point. boy, that would be a really cute decoration, if I was taxidermied and placed in the living room...that might just keep out some of your antichrist cooties, right there! lol. and that is ROFL, not ROLF.
From the mouth of babes!

My three year old daughter and I were making breakfast.  I poured her bowl of oatmeal, which was steaming hot.  She gingerly picked up the bowl, with the aid of oven mitts, and carried it over to the open window, where a gentle breeze was blowing in, and set it on the window sill.  Whilte putting it down, she said, "I think I'll let God blow on this for awhile, okay Mom?" 


With foot & mouth going around, I'd
call the answering service number and ask the MD on call if it can wait.

If they were just clear blisters I'd guess it was a contact dermatitis, but the blood would make me act on this.
Conceal/Carry
Judging by all the negative posts to your post I would say that these people don't understand the process. In order to carry, at least in most places, you need a permit. You are investigated and have minimal training and testing before you are allowed to carry a concealed weapon. People with a past history of mental disorder or felonies are not supposed to be licensed for this. Crazies and felons already have guns and do use them. Just read the paper and you will see what I mean. The only people who were defenseless up until now in Utah in colleges were the people who were not crazy or felons and were not willing to break the rules and carry anyway. Does that sound fair to these people? Crazies and felons walking around armed (they don't really care if they are caught) and the rest of us waiting for something bad to happen?

I have guns and have had since I was 18 years old. I have, in the past, had PMS, but am not crazy, have never been arrested. All the years I had PMS I never once shot anyone in my "PMS state" and a couple of times I had a few too many glasses of wine - I shot no one at those times either. I get angry too from time to time and so far no one has been shot, so those arguments are ridiculous. The way I see it, the constitution provides a way for us to protect ourselves if we wish to and need to. I wish to. If you don't, that is okay too. People who are uncomfortable around firearms should not have one. Those who do feel comfortable should have the right if they are mentally stable, not a felon and have training and a license. Once my gun ownership probably saved me from something really ugly when a man tried to break down my front door at 2:00 a.m. I was on the phone with the police who were trying to get to my house, but there was a robbery in progress and I lived in a small town at the time, so I was "next" in line. At the point where I could no longer hear the police dispatcher (the guy was screaming, kicking the door and pounding on it, I made my choice. It was evident that I was the only one there who could protect me. I set the phone down and told him to move away from my door or I would shoot him through it. When he heard me put one into the chamber of the weapon (shotguns are really loud) he got scared and took off. Evidently, he had heard that sound before. I did not have to shoot him at all. When the police finally arrived 20 minutes later they found that he had been outside my home for quite some time before he decided to try to get in as evidenced by liquor bottles and cigarette butts on the ground where he had been hiding. After the fact, he was found to be extremely dangerous. I am thankful I had a shotgun and handguns that night. I am still thankful that I have them. I have killed no one, have scared one person who meant me harm. I don't think you necessarily have to be a law enforcement officer in order to make good decisions in a crisis situation. Others can do that too and have that right as long as they go about it in a lawful way. I am happy that Utah has the foresight to allow their students and teachers the right to protect themselves. I hope other states follow their example.
Why do they carry slacks in different
lengths only to carry short and average in the stores?  Nothing is more irritating than to go through the entire pile to find there are no slacks in tall.  I asked in the stores and their comment was they don't get many requests for tall.  Oh please. 
Also pack anything you buy in your carry-on - sm
one of my group made the mistake of packing her stuff in her luggage, every single thing was stolen that she bought there. I took mine in my carry-on bag, as did everyone else but her. Just be smart and aware.
Once, right in the nose and fell down/passed out
for a few minutes. Ouch! It was 25+ years ago by another girl over a boy, but unfortunately she was probably double my weight. My sisters weren't very helpful, they lifted me back up and while I was still stumbling around and seeing double said ''get her!''. Yeah, sure. Even the girl was decent enough to know I couldn't handle any more. So I took the loss :(
My 14-month-old has a stuffed up nose....
anyone know of any safe medications I can use or some other remedies to treat her congestion...she woke up last night from it and I just want to make sure she gets a good night's sleep...She isn't cranky just a stuffy nose...I have been using the bulb syringe also...thanks in advance...
"The pope's nose"
No idea where this came from, but it's what my mother always called it.
When he has a bloody nose, let him eat yogurt...
unless you gave him the 'bloddy nose'!

Haha!

NO BASHING, PLEASE !
Foot-in-mouth-disease

At one time or another we have all suffered from it.  Sometimes, things just pop out of our mouths before we have had a chance to edit them.  What was probably a poor attempt at conversation turned out to be an embarrassing situation for both of you.  Accept his apology and move on. 


Mine don't carry them but can find at
a Michael's or Joanns crafts.  You can use a wax milk carton for your mold.  Make sure wick is correct size for your mold - i.e., different wicks for different circumferances. 
men carry lots of these things

Women get Trichamonas, men don't *get* it - they are just carriers of it and hence both would have to get treated.  Men can be and are carriers.........


try googling HPV and you can find out TONS of info on the subject


 



I get mine taken off Sep. 26. In the beginning your whole mouth sm
feels weird, your lips feel swollen, and you do "feel" ugly when you open up your mouth. I don't even remember they are on anymore.

It's a small price to pay since you will yield great results in the end.

For me, I have clear on top and metal on the bottom. The problem I have is keeping them white since I love colas and teas - they stain easily, so I always rince with cold water after drinking tea or soda.

I see you are complaining about how you look and not about how you feel. The first 2 weeks I couldn't even eat! It was probably the most painful think I've ever experienced with intense jaw and teeth pain and I've had 3 children!

In any case, good luck!

PS: The office who takes care of my braces say that 50% of their patients are adults.
My mouth is watering just thinking about
these recipies. The ones with the chicken roll ups and the lemon pepper both have ingredients that appeal to me. Send the recipies. For 2, heck, I would make for ME.
You need to make threats and carry through
I am exactly the same way, get shocked if someone suddenly enters my room. Cannot sit with my back to the door. I told my husband he could not enter anymore without knocking because of how much it scared me and if he wanted to continue, I would take my cup of coffee and throw at him, it really scared me that much. He taps on the door outside before entering, so much nicer.
Blow them off, change your *name*, and carry on!
;)
I would have sent his smart mouth home
when he did it again after the first warning.

I have four kids in my house that I have to deal with every day. If one of them even thought they could get away with that because their friend did..... I would be in BIG trouble!

Maybe a little chat with his parents is in order. Just let them know that you will not tolerate backtalk from your kids and certainly not from their friends. So if it happens again, you will be bringing him home immediately, day or night.

If you have to do that once, it will definitely get the message across to the smart mouth and I bet he would be very careful not to do it again.
Carry the hardwood into the kitchen!

It is just as easy to care for as linoleum and it will look wonderful carried through continuously.  It will make your house look more spacious.


how can you spit stuff like this out your mouth?
"stepping over the body of the same child if it dies of starvation or child abouse after its been brought into the world?"

wtf does that even mean!
I have one that says "his nose was full of snot."

I'm not kidding.  I'm told to type it verbatim and what he says is what he gets.


Eeeuuww.

Actually Simon has the nose for real talent
and he is only telling the truth whereas Paula, Kara and sometimes even Randy try to sugarcoat. I totally am fully behind Simon. Danny is good but who was the second guy who sang, slow song and had not seen him before, really good. As far as replacing the girl thrown off, they did not announce a replacement of any kind. I was surprised that Danny's friend did not make it. He is really good, also. I like Danny, think he will go far because not only good singer but also very, very likeable. I was also surprised that lots seemed really nervous last night and I think it showed big time. I think the guys have the girls beat all over the place this time. I think Tatiana is good but might have gotten off on a bad footing with the audience because of acting so looney.
Hopefully it's a benevolent spirit! Acknowledge it and carry on. :) nm

Mice carry vermin, get rid of the stove sm
I don't know where you live, but call Goodwill or some derivative of that type, Craig's list as mentioned or a free newspaper which advertises cheap and don't risk getting sick. Make sure you disinfect all that area and plug it all up and reseal probably with a piece of plywood or something before you replace the stove. Perhaps you can arrange for your town to pick the old stove up. I wouldn't use it. Sorry for your troubles at Christmas, it must be hard. Perhaps you can get some frozen meals to microwave or canned food from the local church food bank. I was told by a friend who works at a food bank that the government provides them with a check for a certain amount and they have to spend that whole amount on food, not a penny less, and they sometimes have too much food. Also, see if there is a church near you who provides meals. Some around here provide lunch and dinner and don't ask questions. Research, research, don't be proud, everyone is hurting. Good luck to you! Hope you do okay, everyone gets mice, no one is immune, just disinfect, make sure they don't get back in and replace the stove.
Wash your mouth out! Tiffany's is not garbage!

Right, but a lot do apply Botox around the mouth area and
on top of this they get collagen injecting into their lips and then they get this fish-lip look with a masky face.

Especially aging actresses!

Eeeewww!
Wow! Tha't's gross! I hope she kept her mouth shut?..nm

Unfortunately, the schools stick their nose in many things that should be the parents job (sm)
my children have had teachers give one-sided views of politics, whether they should be democrats or republicants, who their parents should be voting for, etc.  For some reason, some teachers don't know where fact ends and their opinion begins.  We don't pay them to teach their opinion.
