Some easy reading, funny stuff.

Right now I'm reading Ann Rule's "Worth More Dead." She is a great writer, but I need to read light things once in awhile to cleanse the palate, so to speak.

I just finished a book by
Mary Kay Andrews entitled Savannah Breeze. Great book! The next one I will read is Savannah Blues (same author).
You're doing great, in my book.
You could drive the oldest family car if:
1. You paid your insurance
2. You paid your gas
3. You did well in school
4. You did well at home
5. You showed enough good judgment

You had a cell phone when/if:
1. You could pay for a prepaid plan yourself
2. You did well at home
3. You still had rules to follow (no calls before or after rules; I could check text messages, call logs, pictures at my leisure, etc)

You're fine, honey. Keep up the good work!

Very few things are rights -- most are privileges; very few things are needs -- most are wants --young children and youth and young adults need to learn about that.


I said already that I was much prettier and younger than my husband..nm

Great Falls, but Kalispell is much prettier.

I like Great Falls because I grew up here and have a lot of friends and family, but the Kalispell area is so beautiful in the Flathead Valley.  Flathead Lake is huge, and the scenery is breathtaking.  The town of Big Fork on Flathead is my favorite, but that area is much more expensive than Great Falls.


I also lived in Portland for 1 year and thought it was great there, but I missed my family and friends and all the mountains too much.  I loved how green everything was there.  The "green season" here is pretty short.


Tessier's Surgical 'Word Book, old but good. And the Quick Look Drug Book and Saunders

We can all tell? Who exactly are "we"?
xx
In your title you even said "we want."

Wanting something is fine...having anything demanded on us is not, in my opinion.  You can always refuse to have an MRI or mammogram.  They are talking about making a law FORCING women to do something.  Once a seemingly benign law like this gets on the books...what's next?  


Sieg Heil!


Finally, it seems to go as "we" the general
I think Lakesha or Jordin, in any order will be next 2, and Blake and Melinda final 2. I like them all, so I dont care who wins.

I read this book also. Wonderful book.

Anyone who has just finished school
would be more apt to pass the CMT test.  However, to say that would eliminate "toilet errors" is not the way I see it.  Someone with a lot of years experience in this field is just as good as a CMT if not better.  Passing a test and putting initials after your name means nothing when it comes to work ethic, discipline, and experience.  I just think if you have 9 years of experience, you are going to be just as attractive as someone with a CMT.  It seems to me companies or physicians seek well-rounded MTs that have experience in quite a few specialties as opposed to having CMT after your name.  I am not so sure physicians are aware of this testing process, but the Nationals seem to have bitten on it, but I'm not so sure it gets you any more money.  I've read posts where it does not gain you anything more than something else to put on the resume.  If you want to become more attractive, then I'd say branch out into more specialties or may be even take a business course to expand your knowledge.  CMT, in my opinion, is a waste of money especially when you have verbatim accounts and the client is always right, no matter what "the books" or for that matter AAMT has to say about the way it should be done.  Just another opinion. 
I have never finished a beverage to the end of it.

Finished- burp.......................

No I haven't finished it yet, but I will ...sm
post my thoughts when I do.
I read it...UGH. I only finished it
because I felt I had to in order to maybe reap some benefit from it and form my own opinion. It didn't do a thing for me at all, can't understand all the glowing reviews and accolades. It really was a chore to get through, IMHO.
Just finished my shift...sm
Hi SAM!  It felt like such a loooong shift with all the tough dictators.  But that is behind me now.  Weatherwise, we hit 70 degrees once so far, now back down to the low 50s.  I love how the days are getting longer.    Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Getting new hardwood floors. They are going to put down pre-finished. (sm)

I haven't picked out style and colors yet.  I know I don't want really dark or really light, but there are sure a lot of variations in between.  Different size planks too.  Anyone had good/bad experiences with the prefinished ones? 


I just finished it last night after I got done work - sm
stayed up until 2 reading. I figured out some of it before it was revealed in the book. I loved it too. I know everyone is happy here that I am done, I would not let anyone near the book because they kept threatening to read the last chapter and spoil it for me.
Hey, I just finished making him tostada
a while ago, Slim in bed snoring away, I have the house all to myself, he came in after a long hard day at his new job....Couldn't let the boy go hungry now could I. He shared his cheese and wine with me, then the gang came in, drat!! He is a real cool guy. His wife will be arriving from Brazil in two weeks. He hopes to have their apartment set up by then, not too far down the road from us....
I'm SO finished with the stock market! As soon as my
I'd rather have a little money that I know I can keep, than tons of *fake*, on-paper money that I could lose the next time some a$$hole decides to fly a jet into a building.
Nope, I'm FINISHED! Even back when - sm
I was making a little money in the market, what little profit I made was taxed much more heavily than my regular job money. Not to mention all the extr forms and headache at tax-time, as well. Not worth it for the 'little guy', even when the market IS going up. But after all the dishonesty and stock-tweeking that's been unearthed and brought to light in the past year or two, I'm through with it. I'd rather have less cash-money that I know I can keep, than lots of 'funny-money' that only exits on paper, and can disappear at a moment's notice. I'm not wasting any more of my hard-earned money to make a bunch of crooks rich.
Just finished Harry Potter - no spoilers
I would never ruin it for anyone.  Just wanted to say - What a ride!  It was an excellent book!  Sorry it's all over.
yippee, whoohoo -- just finished my taxes!!!
talk about procrastination...dang!  down to the last minute, i'm still trying to gather up last year's paperwork.  then, about had a panic attack as i was finishing up, wondering, what if i get audited?  just glad it's done, i think.
I finished Harry Potter! Never fear - no spoiler.
Wow - what a great book & series. Brilliant! As Ron would say.
Sounds like my kids...on a school day "we just got home from school!" on a vacation day....sm
But this is our vacation! My husband takes vacation days and leaves town without us...lol! He would never dream of taking a day off to work around the house!
You're not 'low-class', you're FUNNY, & a good writer!
Which is often the case then someone is the first to cast stones!
You're surprised? I'm not. They're not going to stop voting....
as was mentioned in a prior post. Imagine if they succeed? They just may.
At least you wait until they're cooked! LOL...we're raw dough

Sounds like you're doing great! We're also making out...sm
daughter pay for gas and insurance when she starts driving. She hasn't started driving yet because she doesn't want to get a job to pay for that privilege. That's her choice. We're also making her pay 1/2 of the fees for the state required driver's education course.
DR Book
We just got our copy this week and after the first few pages - I believe it is going to hurt!! We need it though - husband is really stressed. We have two kids in college and one goes in next year. Two oldest are getting married soon - SCARY STUFF!!
best book
Thanks for the insight. I love to read and have trouble with finding good books. Have you read The Kite Runner? It is one of my all time bests. You have to stay with it though.
In the book
The Five People You Meet is Heaven (obviously fiction) tells about choosing the best time in your life and that is what "your" heaven will be like. I love the thought of that. Am still trying to decide what I could choose.
Do you have his book?
Cesar would say that nobody has established the leadership role, so the dog has taken it. Somebody has to do it.

She's being dominant. The good news is that if you learn how to be the leader and your kids learn to act like Cesar has taught his kids, your dog will happily fill the proper place in the pack. It wouldn't matter if she was 14 years old. Dogs live in the moment. She's been learning all you've been accidentally teaching all this time.

One thing about the process is that you need to dedicate whatever time is needed; you don't give up in the middle of a lesson or you have to start over next time. Get Cesar's book or books and be the a pack leader your dog can be proud to follow. :o>

There are other methods as well, and you can get other books. Many "real" dog trainers think his tactics are way off base, but often they soften after reading his book and seeing where he's coming from. But IMO your dog is a candidate for his methods.

Nothing-In-Life-Is-Free is one popular training method.
Self-help book

This book changed my life many years ago. Read it; you will not be sorry. "Your Erroneous Zones" by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

The Bluejay Boarders! I do not even remember who wrote it but it was the first book I really read all by myself, first chapter book so to speak and it made me cry. To this day I cannot find that book! Anybody ever heard of it?
yes, that was book 4
She has published 6 in the series so far and #7 should be out next year. DG has said that there will be "at least" 8, so leaving open the possibility for a 9th. She also has plans for a second Outlandish companion book and a prequel about Jamie's parents, but who knows when.

Here is the site where I found the book... all the way at the bottom you can click on read all reviews & read what everybody is saying about it. I saw the movie & if this book is half as good as that movie it will be great! Everybody says really good things about the book:) may wanna check it out!
this is not a book, but
My teenage son wants one of these DVD:
Wanted, Hellboy2, and Hancock...in case movies are an option. Sometimes my neighborhood kids have movie parties and if someone gets a new one they get voted to watch theirs. It might make the gift last a little longer if they can share it with their friends.

This is a really complicated subject, even though your question is simple. You probably should go have a talk with your FIL about what he considers standard equipment for the house in your area. Good luck!

Book online if you can...
And save your confirmation and payment receipt with your tickets. You should receive confirmation in your cabin at least 24 hours before your first shore excursion. If you don't, check with the Purser's office or the shore excursion desk.

I have traveled on Carnivel three times, most recently last month. I much prefer booking tours online instead of standing in line, and that eliminates finding out your tour is booked up once you get to the desk. Online will tell you immediately if the tour you want, at the time you've chosen, is full or not.

Hope this helps and that you have a great time. I love cruising!
Dog allergies/dog book
Don't know what kind of a dog but my sister had a Red Setter that had thyroid problems and also an allergy to wheat and so they had to buy special food without wheat which was only "Friskies" and that did help to cure the itching.   Oprah had a repeat on about the Dog Whisper and showed how he cured several dogs of being aggressive around other dogs.   His book is wonderful.  My neighbor got it and it worked for them.   Have been luck with my dog, she is now 16 which is very old for her mix -- chow/lab and she has never been aggressive.  Did not have any puppy problems with chewing or barking.  Of course she got her walks every day of over 2 miles at a time and I think that exercise is the biggest help.   Never crated her either and if and when I get another one will not do that to a dog.  Mine is now deaf and partially blind but still walks up to the park three times a day, slow but does it.  Never an accident in the house.  No medications except aspirin.  She will probably outlive me.
So, because I have his book I am uneducated?
Hmmmmm.
I ordered the DVD and the book.
I have been applying The Secret for about 2 or maybe a little more weeks now.  Also my husband and grown son are using it.  We are all experiencing interesting results.  I am using it to lose weight and so far have lost several pounds without dieting. My son worked on 5000 dollars and last week received 1000 and then got another 4000.  My husband is using it for more energy. 
OK-what is your fav book or what are you reading now
My very favorite book is Outlander by Diana Galbadon and I am current re-reading the second book in the Outlander series, Dragonfly in Amber. I would like to reread all 6 of them this summer, but Harry Potter is also coming out, so we'll see.  They are all huge books.
Cesar's book
No I don't have that book but I will get it.  Thanks for the info.  Hopefully we can retrain her to not be aggressive.  She does play and loves to play, but only on her terms.  She is very ornery at times with the kids.  She doesn't like them picking her up.  She doesn't like being moved when she's comfortable.  She can be fun and cute and playful, but I really don't like her being mean any at all, no time is acceptable to me for her to be mean.  And she barks incessantly!  At the mail man every day, anytime she sees anyone outside, neighbor, UPS, fedex, she goes berserk!  I don't think she'd really hurt them if she could get to them, but I can't afford to take that chance either.
I am using his book as a reference also. Thank you! nm
!
I feel the same way, besides how much is a book? lol
Get a copy of the paperback version or as you said ask if you can read when they are done or check one out at the library.

After all, why not just then go to your bookcase and take one out and wrap it up? lol

Yes, tacky.
