Me, too! Socks for sleeping have to be white! :) nm

Hummus in a wheat pita pocket is great. Get them off the white bread, white crackers,

Socks
and barefoot in summer. 
About the socks
remember that they need to fit appropriately (proper graduated tightness getting looser at the top)or they can do more harm than good.

Elevate whenever you can ... maybe try to switch feet with the pedal so you can take turns getting each leg up.

I had that trouble for awhile (b4 doing MT work), but it went away. No idea what the deal was. I have always been thin and rarely use salt.
Slipper-socks
Me too! I love slipper-socks. They keep my toes nice and warm and I am able to feel the pedal well. :)
Thick socks. I have the same problem.

Nah...I just tuck 'em into my socks...

Need some ideas for some warm socks sm
I know, I know, it isn't even winter yet as my husband would say. It's in the 50s outside and my feet are like ice. Right now I have them buried under the heating pad. Can't use a space heater because then my room gets like 110.  Any ideas for some nice, warm, nonbinding socks as tight socks make my legs and ankles hurt and just plain drive me nuts. 
Same problem here, I mostly wear slipper-socks.

For really big plants, I put cotton socks on my hands and just rub

I wear Berkie sandals with socks now

Vaseline & socks overnight - not sexy but works nm
...
Bag balm and sweat socks...Nasty but very effective...
My feet get so dry they crack and bleed, summer or winter. It takes me about 3 days of sleeping in sweat socks, but it works. Also I swear by anything with shea butter in it, especially anything from Bath and Body Works rocks!!!. I also swear by Gold Bond Ultimate Soothing skin therapy lotion. It has shea butter in it too and it rocks too. There is no real smell to it so if you are allergic or sensitive, then this will work.

I wonder if we could somehow augment our MT salaries by being spokespeople for these companies. LOL.
Thin socks ALL the time. Can't use my pedal barefoot or with shoes. nm

PJ wearing

How many of us stay in our PJs all day? 


Ive been at home now for about 5 or 6 years - I cannot seem to break this bad habit of mine!!  I think it is beginning to wear on me.  I miss "having to" buy new clothes and looking nice everyday...now, I cannot seem to find a "good" reason to get fixed up for the day home by myself!!!


Anyone else go through this!!!


PJ Wearing!


Almost every day unless I have an appointment of some type!  No makeup and hair in a ponytail!  It does feel good, though, I have to admit to "fix up" every once in a while and sometimes I do miss it but not enough to put forth the energy most days.


 


I have been wearing them for years and
was told by orthopedic guy to wear those or Clarks and I have worn and love them. These last ones I got have killed my feet though and I have a problem on the outer side of the foot hurting. I looked up the Crocs someone suggested and those looked pretty comfortable, might try those. Might have touch of peripheral neuropathy, never know when the feet are going or not. Thanks
Has anyone heard of a 5 yo, nearly 6 yo wearing a bra
bra.  She wants a bra.  She has been asking me for one for weeks and she won't let up.   There were bras hanging in the kid clothes section at Wal-Mart and she begged and begged for one then but I said no.  She is not developing at all but she claims some of her fellow kindergarteners are wearing them.  What are other mother's doing.  Is this a new trend?  I don't know.  When I was 5 I never heard of a bra. 
Wearing Bras

Yes, I just for the first time this year bought bras for my daughter.  She seemed okay with it, but she's slightly overweight, so I felt this would be easier than buying T-shirts that are not long enough to tuck in.  So, we went with the Sport Type kind that she seemed to like at first, and now I've noticed she's not wearing them.  So, I asked her why, and she says she just forgets, which is highly possible, since it's only been since school started.  I just feel better knowing she's wearing something, but of course, she was wearing T-shirts.  So, what is one to do?  I really do not see any harm in the bra.  I am totally against having little girls dress beyond their age, but we're talking underclothes here, so if the child is comfortable, then just try one to see how she likes it.  My daughter was kind of embarassed as it was actually my idea since I felt she needed something under her regular shirts, since they tend to be thin and unforgiving in her situation.  Good luck to you, but I in no way, shape, or form believe that bra at 5 means thing at 10 and even if it does, so be it.  I think a person has a right to a certain degree to wear the underclothes of their choice if any at all!   


I just think there could be worse things that she is asking for at 5. 


They may wonder what you're wearing!!!
  or what we're drinking , but who cares!  AHHH, the luxury of working from home!  I can wear or NOT WEAR  whatever I want.  That's all part of the biz!!!  On the norm, I have to go out and pick-up tapes, so I'm with the post above.  Shower mid morning after getting hubby and kids off to school so I can do it in peace, and then if not going out, maybe sweats and if going out, then jeans/shirt.  Boy, do I save a lot on WORK CLOTHES!!!   To poster above, I am taken very seriously!!  I make loadz of money!!!  They take me very seriously when I'm making my deposits at the bank.  
Today I'm wearing
Obsession for Women.


I like a mixture, keeps me from wearing out. NM
.
And I see nothing wrong with a guy wearing a bro.
x
Yep. Sweating while wearing
something that has nickel in it...it is a chemical reaction.

It sucks big time. I had a BF years ago who gave me this really pretty bracelet that was gold plated. I wore it and it put a welt on my wrist. It was painful even.

I cannot even handle the button on my jeans. I have to make sure I have undies that go that high or tuck my shirt in, it is that bad. Once I had a pair of sandals and I was allergic to the buckle. That was awful too.
Wearing panties sure does not make
my feeling of security. Under PJs?? You don’t sleep with a teddy bear still, do you?
Have you tried wearing Crocs? I love them! nm

Yeah my DD just turned 9 and has been wearing 5s - sm
now for a few months. I wear a 7 and can actually squeeze into her a a pair of her open-ended sandels. She has always been in the 95th percentile for height and weight, but is slowing down some, now at about 88%.
If they are wearing bras at 5, it will be thongs at 10
makeup at 12, and birth control pills at 14. How about these unbelievable salon parties some of these mothers are doing for their 8 and 10 year old girls; taking all the girls to the salon to have the hair and makeup and nails done. Today, just about everyone is a ''wannabe''. I want to be rich; I want to be beautiful; I want to be famous; I want to have big boobs; I want perfect teeth. I want a nose job. I want to be thin. I want a designer handbag. I want a cell phone, an IPOD and a blackberry! Why, because everyone that matters is or does! Everyone they look up to. Everyone on TV! That is all they know.

Ask a group of very young girls today what they want to be when they grow up and see how many say, a singer, an actress, a movie star or just plain rich and famous in any way possible! It's terribly sad what this world has turned into. And some parents are just as bad because they want this for their children, also.

TV and media magazines should be banned; it's not only destroying the kids but adults also. How many of you feel your self-esteem lowering more and more by seeing all of this stuff? How many of you have contemplated plastic surgery, veneers, teeth whitening, losing weight, especially in the last ten years? How many of you suddenly are feeling bad or envious of others because you don't have that big gorgeous home or that expensive great car?

It's a horrible world we now live in and that's why I am not having children.

And don't tell me I don't know about children because I have two nieces and a nephew that I practically raised.

Good day ;)

I gave up wearing my rings sm
I've had them resized twice already, once up a size and another down a size. I don't think they will resize them a third time. I, too, have arthritis and prednisone swells my finger something fierce. I have a beutiful mother's ring that I can't wear again since it is too small now.
Is anybody wearing green today?
I forgot, but when my kid tried to pinch me (oh brother), we realized I had a green coffee cup and some green lines in my shirt. HA.  So, do you care about this green stuff? Frankly I care about the green in my wallet, so I am typing more than thinking about green beer today. LOL.  Happy St. Patty's Day! (green face icon)
About the same time he starts wearing a bra . . . NM

wearing your heart on your sleeve
I too have spent too much time thinking about this. From your post, your description of your daughter's intelligence and your own dismay at the rudeness of these people, I can only come to one conclusion.....You are hanging around people less intelligent than you are. Not figuratively, but IQ. You are sensitive, they are obtuse.

However, I have also discovered that the people who use a simple "hello" as currency to give or take away, are broke. The worst snobs in my neighborhood are broke and don't want anyone to know. They try to hide their financial status, but you don't so you are scary.

I have been treated the worst by the mean and stupid. Think about what a breath of fresh air your daughter is to that little boy. I am glad you went to the party.
You wearing a bra ? What kind of underwear and color ?
.
Ok then, is it just me or did y'all see that girdle thing she was wearing?
Like a long-leg body shaper or something.
And guests have been wearing colors, etc. for too long

Problem wearing wedding band..sm

I was recently dx with RA, and have been having some issues wearing my wedding band.  Two main problems - my fingers get puffy and wearing the band makes my hand itch (even though they are solid gold).  I was thinking about getting a tattoo'd ring on my ring finger, but I was wondering if you all could come up with some ideas that are creative but perhaps not as painful...I don't mind the permanancy, as I am married with the intention of staying that way for life. 


Thanks in advance, y'all.

Been wearing Tova for 15 years and LOVE it!
I receive lots of compliments that I simply *smell good, * not *what perfume are you wearing?*  Works for me! 
No, but I do have a new pair of shoes I've been wearing a lot (sm)
I was kind of wondering if they might have caused it. I think I will just stop wearing them and see what happens.

Thank you
It shouldn't be about wearing a ring, but more...see message
the way he acted toward you. My husband doesn't wear his wedding ring, just cos he doesn't feel like it, and I don't wear mine either. No big deal, but sounds like this guy was flirting with you and that's what I think was wrong.
Afternoon or evening ceremony? What is the other mom wearing? What looks good on you?

I don't know about you, but if I could look like Tina Turner at her age, wearing the silver suit,
I would not complain. Yeah, she is a little bit slower, but her legs still look great and she can still strut her stuff in what looked like 4-inch heels.
My 7-year-old girl is now wearing a size 6 ladies shoe...sm

I'm afraid to try to guess how much that foot is going to grow before she gets to high school!    She's also 2 heads taller than the kids in her class. 


i know it is wearing on you but the recommend amount of timeout is 1 minute for each year of age.

Will they all be barefoot or wearing flip flops? Would just go for a simple sun dress or sheath,

Surgeon said he had large exuberant hemorrhoids! Are they wearing party hats?

Um, with the economy in shambles, I kinda have a problem with her wearing a pair of $500 shoes!
Her hubbie talks about Americans become financially responsible and she's walking around in a pair of sneakers that would cover my rent!
Is it a white frosting? could this be it?















I don't know if this is crunchy, but it does get sort of a crust on the outside after awhile.  If this isn't it, maybe some more info?
FLUFFY BOILED FROSTING
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup water
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 egg whites
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

In a heavy saucepan combine sugar, water and cream of tartar. Slowly bring mixture to a boil, stirring sides of the saucepan with a brush dipped in water to remove any sugar crystals. Cover and boil for about 3 minutes or until a candy thermometer registers 245 degrees.

Beat egg whites with pinch of salt until glossy and peaked. Slowly pour in syrup as you continue to beat the whites. Beat until cool and frosting is soft and fluffy. Fold in vanilla


She was the white girl with the
kind of "punk" look.  Dark hair, large red highlight in front. 
Thanks to you & others who let me know. Beautiful looking with the white

Red, white and blue . .
Found them on Netflix and added them to my que - can't wait.
No , they are white and after knowing them
all these years, it was very suprising. Like I said, we all grive in different ways, but I never would have believed that some of the adults would need to be medicated. It is just tragic and painful to see.
