I hear you on the saving water, etc. sm

In Reply to: Drought here in the SE, saying use low flow toilets, my story - Sure hope not!
We also had the low water toilets in our last place, upgraded one of them to a better model because the plumbers said the standard ones were terrible and we were going to hate them, but it still had problems and not cheap!!. We're always conscious about running water around here for washing dishes, brushing teeth, etc. and would like to buy a different washer but can't afford right now, tryin' to do our part, ya know... I don't know about your low water toilets but ours were a joke, had to flush sometimes 3 or 4 times to get #2 to go down, had to have plungers beside each, which our guests had to use also. We wondered where the water-saving feature came in if you had to flush multiple times to get it to work. Was really embarrassing for us and people who stayed when they had to tell us they plugged the toilet up or couldn't get it to go down, but don't know what the solution is, maybe a different diet?? Lol, and quiz everyone who stays with you about their bowel habits and proceed with caution when using our facilities... We don't live there anymore, but maybe someone here has some suggestions on this... Don't mean to hijack your post, but am interested if someone has suggestions on brands.

saving self
In saving yourself, you WILL be helping them by setting an example and showing the both of them how a strong woman survives.
They may never, ever realize what they are doing to you and you may be in for rough waters ahead as you try to extricte youself from this because living like this has become the norm among the 3 of you.
The nature of this beast is that you never see it coming, you always think you are doing the "right thing" until it gets to the point where you feel you can't take it anymore and then you wonder where in the world you went wrong. Then you're hit with another guilt trip.
Once you can get free and find a therapist to explain to you how THEY think this greatly helps you deal with undeserved feelings of guilt which is a fast track to depression. If you're dealing with true mental illness in them, get a pro to explain to you how their illness works in them and how it affects you in YOUR particular circumstances and then work on ways of dealing with it once you understand better what is going on. Your anger and frustration and everything else that is eating away at you will be directed toward the illness and the drugs, etc. and not them. You acquire a balanced perspective and the guilt and depression begin to subside as strength returns as you begin to see things as they truly are.
Check out those books. They will bring you much comfort and help give you courage and direction. But please seek help for yourself. You are entrenched in this more than you realize. A pro can help you out quicker than the books by focusing on YOU. I recommend both.
I am saving some now so we have - sm
a cushion for emergencies. After all the bills are paid each month we have about $500 if my calculations is correct. I don't want to rely on that, want more if necessary. Just saving $50 a week and set aside $1000 from selling back 2 weeks on my DHs vacation pay. Have an $400 propane bill coming due around Dec. 26, and then $500 in car insurance in Feb., and just had to pay about $500 for personal property tax...due today. But I will have that $3K paid off I hope by March. I make about $800 every 2 weeks and only need $800 a month for my cc payments right now--so will use the other $800 to pay off the rest of his cards. My hardship plans are only for a year, guess I will have to renegotiate then if I don't go the debt settlement route, but it will take me like 10 years to pay it all off otherwise. Totally sucks, but I made the mess, need to clean it up. Mine was caused by too much spending, family death, family serious illness, loss of job due to taking care of family member, private school payments, just too much going out and not enough coming in. Luckily we have lots saved in 401K, but only borrowed enough to pay off his cards (shy about $2K on what we borrowed); I am to fix my mess which is $10k worse than his. But all is going okay, and my DH came thru like a trooper surprising me, he is still mad and totally lost it last week on me one night but kids intervened, and no they don't know anything, though he does make little remarks in front of them though I have told him not to. If they figure it out I will explain the evils of credit cards, we do tell them that anyway, but they will know first hand how quickly it can get away from you. We will be okay, though cash poor for five years. I am working on getting a job outside the home and am on the second step of a job now that is $28K a year from 8-4:30; so I can still do some MT--which I would do and use that money for gas and childcare. I'd miss the freedom I have now but would make about $800 more a month if I get this job and still do about $600 a month with MT, which would more than cover the gas and childcare since I only need it for about 90 mins after school. We will see how it goes.
Saving photos to CD
Does anyone know how to save digital photos (in My Pictures) to a CD? Do you need to download a program for that or is it possible just with what I've got in my computer? I need to get them off of my computer and saved. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
well he's a musician and says he's saving up for
he has bought 2 different pieces of music equipment this year. He angrily offered to pay the electric bill from his savings, even wrote a check but I couldn't take it.
Quite honestly I have never been in love with him, he loves me oldest son very much so it's hard to just tell him to leave because his own dad has never met him and barely pays child support. SO and i have a son together so it's a complicted situation. I really just wish he would hurry up and go on the road so at least I would have a chance to see how I feel without him. He also works for his mother and stays over at her house a few nights out of the week. She is in her 60s and alone and she needs a lot of help. So, by the time he gets home here he is tired from working and helping her so he just wants to veg out all the time. I guess from his POV i don't have anything else to do but clean since i'm here all the time but my god I like to have time to do things too. I have dreamed of the day I tell him to leave but I can't bear to break my children's hearts. We have an on again/off again relationship and have been back together for 2-1/2 years now and I figure it's just pointless to break it off again. But i can't bring it to myself to marry him because of all of the above. Suze Orman said it best: Love is easy. Finding somebody you LIKE is the hard part.

Do you guys have any money saving tips?

Post your money saving tips
Times are tough, gas prices through the roof, food costs climbing... what are you doing to compensate? I'm lucky to live in a walkable community. I'm glad that I can work at home and not have to use so much gas, but I do use my car for errands. Since I am able to walk to the grocery store, doctor's offices, post office and friends' homes that's what I'm doing these days. Last week I used my car only once.
That's just the first big step (pun intended). How about everyone else? What are you doing (or forced to do) with rising prices?

Did not hear about the porn but did hear
there might be a conflict about her babies going home with her when they were able to be dismissed. You can hardly blame anyone for questioning how she will take care of them. From what I have seen, she hardly seems stable enough to do that.
Haven't started shopping yet, but have started saving $$$
Don't have an awful lot yet, but both hubby and I are doing it (separate accounts) so we should have a good amount when we combine. My goal is to start shopping in September after my daughter's birthday and finish by Thanksgiving. That's my goal. I have never reached it! Maybe this year!
Some say it's the water...
and they are cooked in salted water - some are not. They have a crusty-hard outside and a moist middle. And they're huge. They really are the best! :)
Ice Water, sm
Soak apples in ice water and a little salt. Kabobs would be a great idea but not sure about the wooden skewers.
no where to put the water?
ever consider the toilet? Lot's of other nasty stuff goes down ther:)
Yes, usually when I get water in my ear, that happens.
I put a few drops of alcohol in my ear and it goes away.
Water is not the only --sm
source of fluoride though. It is in our toothpastes, mouthwashes, and probably a number of other items you would never suspect. You have to be proactive and check labels on EVERY thing to avoid it. This forced consumption of fluoride brings to mind the long suppressed addictiveness of nicotine in tobacco and the health implications that caused. I feel sometimes that having fluoride forced upon the unwitting public could possibly be in the same category. Flouride is in all actuality a rat poison, used many years ago for that reason only. It hardens bones (osteoporosis??) but I am doubtful about any other health *benefits* of it. I think there are many more risks involved in its use than the unwitting public will ever be made aware of and a lot of information about it being suppressed as well.
Some ants come in for water as much
or more than food. I have heard they don't like to walk thru talcum powder. You can put a circle of it around pet water bowls if that is the draw for them. See if you can find where they are coming in, both the inside entry point and the outside. Plug holes with silicone caulk or expanding caulk like STUFF. A natural product is diamateous earth (not the kind used for pools, though). Use only outside, or it may be okay in crawlspace, but not sure. You don't want to breathe it, so wear a mask while pouring. Once it is down it harmless to people and pets, but when hard-bodied insects walk through it, the texture tears their exoskeletons up and kills them. But it is washed away by rain, so very expensive. Depends on how rainy your climate is as to whether it will work for you.
If they get caught, off goes their water!
Have my shutters open this morning and I see my next door neighbor starting to water her lawn. We are in a drought really bad here and the water is being rationed, so to speak. No one waters on Sunday (and Sunday as I write) and we have an odd, even day system when we do water through the week. Atlanta, which is close by, has gone to a 1 day a week watering system. Some places in my state have turned off water to people caught abusing this. I remember in the 80s we had such a drought our showers were limited to 5 minutes. I would hope it does not get that bad again.
They use saline, right? Not just water.
Saline sprays don't bother me at all.
hot water cornbread
WARNING: I do everything by eye....a pinch here, a smidgeon there...I just throw it all in a bowl and guesstimate.
Ya make 'em kinda like pancakes in a cast iron skillet on the stove and it doesn't heat the house up as much as baking.
Boil at least a cup of water in the microwave
Put about 1 to 2 cups of self-rising cornmeal in a bowl. Add 1 beaten egg and mix thoroughly. Then you add the boiling water in bits, slowly mixing it until the right consistency....not thin like pancakes.... kinda like what you would make for regular cornbread almost.
Heat skillet with about 1/8 to 1/4 inch oil heated med to med/hi.... then use a good sized serving spoon to dollop the mixture into the pan. Watch carefully and try not to burn
DO NOT, under any circumstances use jiffy mix.
After 25 years I've finally gotten it nearly right (darn Yankee that I am). Happy vows tomorrow!
Water 'em! (sm)
Hose them down outside, put them in the shower, or leave them out in the rain.
bluing and well water
I am on well water too. Have not used it most of my life but only the past 5 years so maybe that is part of my problem too! I don't know much about how it changes things. We do have a reverse osmosis system which is supposed to help remove rust and sulfur. Maybe I need the bluing too. More info on this would be appreciated! :) I also have allergies to most detergents so a brand name would be great!
thanks for the info. we have well water too. sm
we have a water softener, and filters. not sure if maybe that is helping my stuff dinge out. thanks for the info on the bluing!
Hot tap water - which is really very warm - sm
If it's too hot for your hands, it's too hot for the yeast.
I know I don't drink enough water...sm
I also have interstitial cystitis (chronic bladder inflammation) so I should definitely be drinking more water than I do. When I drink any carbonated drink, my bladder hurts the next day. I had a cystoscopy in September to diagnose this, and my bladder was all red and inflamed with little red pinpoint bleeding in it. When I do pee tests I have chronic white blood cells from the inflammation. So yes I would say I need to drink lots of water.
I go along with the filtered water--sm
It makes a HUGE difference in the way your coffee tastes. I turned my mother onto filtered water and she says she will never do it any other way. She even makes her icecubes with filtered water. Anyway, I am picky about my coffee as well and I buy Farmer Brothers. Around here, I can only buy it on line, as none of the stores carry it. I buy five one pound cans at a time, which is a little cheaper, with a flat rate shipping fee. It is supposed to be the kind of coffee that most restaurants use, which is why you can't get it in the stores. I do not like strong coffee. I cannot handle the caffeine and I do not like decaffeinated. Farmer Brothers has varying degrees of strength, as well as flavored coffees. I will also go along with a clean coffee maker, and don't forget to clean the pot, as well!
sometimes too much caffeine and not enough water..sm
I sometimes get these symptoms when I am actually sort of dehydrated from drinking too much caffeine containing products or alcohol and not enough water. I will then gulp lots of water and in a couple of days, I am fine again. I am very lax on drinking water, so it happens more often than I would like. Just a suggestion, though, not a "diagnosis."
Bottled Water
DH always buys Aquafina bottled water. I'm not crazy about it, because it seems to have a taste or after taste that I don't like.
What bottled waters do you like and is one better or healthier than another?
bottled water
Have been exposed to many brands and would highly recommend Ozarka if you can find it in your market. Its source is Piney Woods Springs in Wood County, Texas. In my opinion, easily the best tasting.

WATER spray bottle!
They hate it. Combine it with a fairly loud NO. They CAN be trained. Nail tips are probably humane alternative to the declawing thing.
Drink plenty of water...
I try to start my day with a pitcher of ice water on desk, like a 2-liter bottle and try to drink that during my shift, which really helps. Hubby and I went on program with Dr. and took Adipex and B12/B complex and followed the attached diet. We were on 1500 cal/day and he lost 65 and I lost 35. We quit taking the adipex but stayed with the diet. I lost 30 on this same diet several years ago too. It is well rounded. Somewhere I have an 1800 cal if you are interested. You don't count calories, it is already figured out for you. Daily meal plan gives you a break down of what to eat in a day (1 bread, 1 fruit, etc)and then the individual breakdown (breads, meat, etc.) lets you know what these include. (i.e. 1 bread - 1 slice of bread, 1 fruit 1 small apple or 1/2 cup canned fruit). No expense of buying diet products and you can eat regular food with your family. Funny. We used to eat 2 center cut chops a piece and with this we would split 1! There are free foods too so you could pile up a big salad for lunch and save other stuff for dinner. We did not quit drinking sodas, just switched to diet cokes 0 calories as opposed to 140 or so per drink. Good luck.

I have dulited bleach with water and used that before
and it did a good job without harming my skin. This was in very small areas. My hair is also short and I color my hair myself, so I often have little spots here and there.
Then I would suggest for clean water and
beaches you take them to Cancun. Florida has some bad water and beaches a lot of times. The water in Cancun crystal clear and the sand, no matter how hot it is, never burns your feet.
With fake water and soap.

I would get some really cool/cold water
sounds like an extremely good idea to me, wished I had thought of that earlier.
I'm actually starting to think that is could be hard water.
It's very strange. Some days, my hair will feel thicker, and then some days it will feel really thin. This has never happened to me before! It literally just started this past fall after I turned 26. Maybe it's just stress, although I don't have that much. I do take a multivitamin every day and have for the past several years. I also tend to eat really healthy and drink a ton of skim milk! I'm starting to think that maybe it is just stress. Also, I'm wondering if it could be hard water in my house causing it when I shower. When I first noticed this around October, it was while I was washing my hair in the shower and I started pulling strands of hair out like never before. I guess that is really something to consider. I do live in a much older house.
Oh, besides loving water, they also eat olives!
NM
In many areas they also get free water too
Also even tho they don't pay property taxes they get the sevices of police & fire protection and possibly trash pickup!
I found this - it's from Oct 11, 2006. Interesting read!
Not so Separate Church and State—Should Christian Organizations Get Breaks from the Government?
The New York Times this week has run a series of interesting articles by Diana B. Hendriques about the ever decreasing size of the wall between church and state in a variety of matters. This particular blog will try to digest the evidence she presents. Here first are links to several of the articles
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/08/business/08religious.html?_r=2&pagewanted=6&th&emc=th&oref=slogin
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/09/business/09religious.html?th&emc=th

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/11/business/11religious.html?th&emc=th
Take first the issue of Christian Day Care Schools. In many state they do not have to be run to the same standards nor have the same inspections as state run Day Care centers. For example a state run center in Alabama must: 1) have regular training for its staff; 2) submit to regular on-site inspections; 3) have a lock and key for the medicine cabinet; 4) have two sinks only one of which can be for food preparation; 4) have a license; 5) comply with the civil rights laws in regard to hiring; 6) file a report with the IRS of donations and grants to the center. None of these restrictions apply to the Church of God Day Care Center in Auburn Alabama or for that matter other such Christian Day Care Centers. One of the things that came as a surprise to me in reading the articles is that while some such exemptions are of long standing, many of these sorts of exemptions have been created in the last fifteen years. In fact, there has been a growing trend of such exemptions in the last decade or two--- more than 200 laws have been created since 1989 of this sort in a wide variety of states. One professor from Emory has bemoaned the changes in the laws and says that separation of church and state is no longer the law of our land—instead we have what he calls ‘religious affirmation action programs’. And what is especially telling is that it is low church Protestants who formerly screamed loudest about separation of church and state who are now taking full advantage of such new laws, while still preaching that the government is a menace to and is endangering the separation of church and state rules. What’s up with that?
The timing of these new breaks in the law is especially propitious since the church is going more and more into non-traditional styles of ‘ministry’--- ranging from ice cream parlors to beauty salons to athletic facilities to funeral homes to day care centers to bookstores! Churches get property tax breaks, and lee way in using their land to a degree that other organizations can only envy. Here’s one telling sentence from the first of these articles which appeared in Sunday’s paper--- “In recent years, a church-run fitness center with a tanning bed and video arcade in Minnesota, a biblical theme park in Florida, a ministry’s 1,800-acre training retreat and conference center in Michigan, religious broadcasters’ transmission towers in Washington State, and housing for teachers at church-run schools in Alaska have all been granted tax breaks by local officials — or, when they balked, by the courts or state legislators.” Of course all these facilities have city water, city trash service, city fire and police protection and so on—they just don’t have to pay the taxes which pay for them.
In some cases, it is right to ask are all of these exemptions given to activities that are 1) not for profit; 2) could be called charitable activities that benefit the whole community and the like? It is easier to answer this question when it comes to soup kitchens open to all, drug rehab centers open to all, clothing and shelter services open to all. For example, my church runs a ‘Room at the Inn’ service for the homeless several nights a month. These sorts of services do indeed benefit the whole community and are a public service. But some of these perks seem to go well beyond the intent of First Amendment which of course says that Congress shall make no law in regard to the free establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. In what way is freedom of religion at issue in the establishment of a Christian beauty parlor? Inquiring minds want to know. When you discover tax exempt Christian old folk’s homes that are raking in huge sums of money, do not take the poor or indigent, and bleed dry every last resource of various old people, you have to say--- THIS IS NOT A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION.
And then there is the issue not just of tax and land use breaks, but the actual garnering of federal grants. You will be interested to know that this growing trend began with Bill Clinton in 1996. There are now federal grants and contracts that churches can regularly apply for. Just another example of everyone’s tax dollars at work. Is it really true, by and large that radical courts have been gutting our religious freedoms, or would it be fairer to say that the courts have not done this, indeed quite the opposite in the last fifteen years, but it has become more particular about the public display of religious things on public property? It seems to me that the latter is nearer the actual truth.
Lets consider another aspect of the separation issue—employees of religious institutions. Many of them have few if any legal rights when it comes to their employment. They can be dismissed without due process or proper cause. Take for instance the story of Mary Rosati. She was a novice in training in an order of nuns in Toledo. One day she went to the doctor with her Mother Superior and discovered she had breast cancer and that it was serious. The Mother Superior then announced” We will have to let her go. I don’t think we can take care of her.” (not a religious ground for dismissal. Indeed one might say that dismissal for that reason goes against the religious teaching of Jesus). Some months later Ms. Rosati was told that she was being let go because the Mother Superior and her council had concluded she was not called to be a part of the order (a religious opinion). Mary Rosati lost her health insurance in them midst of battling cancer, and still has none. Now if it had been a secular employer, Mary Rosati could have taken the matter to court and won on the basis of the American with Disabilities Act. But when Ms. Rosati went to court, the case was dismissed as an ‘ecclesiastical’ matter which was beyond the court’s jurisdiction and indeed outside the Americans with Disabilities Act. Bottom line—here we have a Christian organization trying to selfishly protect itself, at the expense of one of its own noviates. In short, the law, or lack of a law, allows Christians to behave badly towards their employees. And there are many similar tales I could tell. Take the case of Lynette Petruska, who was a chaplain at Gannon University, a Catholic school in Erie Pa. In fact she was its first female chaplain. During her brief three year tenure in this job, she apparently did her work too well. She refused to co-operate in the cover up the sexual misconduct of a senior official at the school, she refused to support the slackening of restrictions in regard to on campus rules about sexual harassment, and she was demoted and then in essence force out. Here was a woman who went through 16 years of Catholic education, was very supportive of her institution she was serving at, thought that Christian ethics should especially apply there, and probably lost her job for it. Two years have come and gone, and no court so far will touch the case because of ‘separation of church and state’, even though Rev. Gannon says that her superior acknowledged he was demoting her because she was a woman. Or I could tell you the story of the 73 year old United Methodist minister who was forced to retire from his church in Stony Brook even though he wanted to keep serving as did his church, but he bumped into the mandatory retirement rule of our denomination. He has sued, to no avail thus far. Does age discrimination have a place in the Christian workplace?
Perhaps we don’t want the state to police the church for us, but in that case, should we not be policing ourselves? Should we not set up some sort of ecclesiastical court system for all genuine Christian denominations that such people could appeal to? Couldn’t we have an accountability system for Christian colleges and institutions? Something with some clout like the Evangelical Financial Accountability organization?
But there are other issues as well. In June of this year, Governor Jeb Bush signed a piece of legislation into law which exempted “the Holy Land Experience” from paying $300,000 a year in back taxes for the last five years. Seems this ‘Christian business’ has been raking in the dough. Now I have been to this Christian theme park. It’s o.k., but it has its hokey dimensions, and it certainly isn’t a charity. It’s a for profit organization that benefits from land use laws, property laws, and tax exemption as if it were a church. Only its not—it’s a business, a theme park, only a few miles from Disneyworld and other theme parks. It cost $35 for adults and $23 fir children to get in. Charity is not the word that comes to mind. Nor is it providing any public service of a social nature at least (it is providing some dubious Biblical interpretation). I don’t have a problem with them being a business—but shouldn’t they be paying for city water, lights, streets, fire and police services, like any other business? Inquiring minds want to know.
If we look at the issue of laws invoking or ruling on the separation of church and state issue two things seem clear. They were far stricter in the mid 70s than they are today, Secondly, we cannot claim that this change is due solely to the growing political influence of the Republican religious right. In fact it has come about because Christians who are both Democrats and Republicans in Congress, the Senate, and the White House have been in favor of doing more that weakens the separation of church and state provisions. Now none of this crosses the line such that we could claim that the government is establishing or prohibition a particular religion. After all, Moslems, Jews, Hindus and others are also benefiting from these laws. But as it stands the government, both federal, state, and local is now in effect fighting secularism on its own by passing such laws. Which brings me to a point and some final questions. I haven’t even touched the fact that clergy can opt out of Social Security and get housing allowance breaks with the IRS. There is incredible scope to the amount of privileges granted in the name of religion by various levels of our government.
QUESTION ONE--- IS IT TRUE OR FALSE THAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS ANTI-CHRISTIAN? I don’t really see how we can claim it is true in any global or comprehensive sense if one looks at the trail of legislation.
QUESTION TWO—DO WE CARE IF THE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE HAS BEEN ERODED IN SOME RESPECTS, AND STRENGTHEN BY EXEMPTIONS IN OTHERS? It certainly seems that even many traditional Christian separatists care less and less about this.
QUESTION THREE—DO WE WANT THE GOVERNMENT HELPING US THRIVE IN BUSINESS, AND EXTEND THE SOCIAL GOSPEL IN VARIOUS WAYS? I don’t particularly see the latter as at all a bad thing, since it has some wide public benefit and does not amount to the establishment of religion in the doctrinal sense. As for the former, I have some questions.
QUESTION FOUR--- IF ALL THIS IS TRUE, IS THE CLAIM OF INCREASING LIBERALISM AND SECULARISM IN OUR CULTURE SIMPLY FALSE? Yes I think this is largely true on the latter issue (secularism). We are a profoundly religious people, its just not as much Christian religion as it used to be. As for the former question, I think the answer is yes and no depending on the issue. If you look at the way the nation votes as a barometer, the answer is that since 2000 signs point definitely towards no.
Try a water slide for the kids.
hit Rehoboth Beach in Delaware (tax free) and there's a different boardwalk there, not quite as big, but still fun! Love Rehoboth and OC, MD!
How about putting your hot water bottle/bag in SM
the microwave to just get the chill off ot it before you apply it. The house was frigid cold and I wanted to warm up. Kept it in for a little two long and the whole microwave and kitchen smelled of burned rubber for I don't know how long! TOP THAT, why doncha! 
Make sure you're getting all your water in and
up your fat a bit. You are in benign ketosis which is what you want to be in if your goal is to lose weight on low carb. Just make sure you're getting enough water and a good multivitamin. Sometimes your electrolytes can get out of balance, but should be easy enough to correct.
