how difficult it would be to get back into MTing/QAing after a year or so. It took me a long time to get the job I have now (QAing/MTing).

Thanks for your input! Will keep everyone posted. I hate doing QA right now and typing!......ha

    Take a deep, deep breath...sm
    and slowly exhale.  Phoooooooo.  Feel a little better?  You may have been venting, but you still kept your sense of humor.  I do sympathize, though.  My brother did not think he needed pain meds after his vision-correction surgery.  I kept telling him the anesthetic would wear off.  I picked up his meds without him knowing.  He was so grateful later that night.  Chalk one up for little sis.  BTW, I hope your hubby gets better soon. 
    Time for a long, uninterrupted heart to heart. Sorry to hear

    Oh no, now I am in deep......
    Hubs out of town, returning tonight. I told him I had bought something really good for him today, some succupnongs and got me some home-grown tomatoes. Well I never thought he would do that but then said how he loves those kind of tomatoes, how many did I get? I lied, yes I did, if I have to eat them all tonight before he gets here. OMG I probably have a good dozen left but I don’t want to share....I did buy him those others, why are men never satisfied?? I am so full right now I do not think I can eat those other 12 just yet.
    Do you need DEEP POCKETS to buy them?

    Anyone who thinks introverts or shy people are slow or retarded is just ignorant. I'm sorry, but racism is ignorant and judging people without knowing one thing about them is ignorant. This person is double-ignorant.

    Can't give you advice, but my son is a lot like your husband. He is incredibly intelligent and the wheels are always turning, he just doesn't spew out every little thing that comes into his head. He listens. He learns.

    All I can say to you is thank whomever you supreme being is that you have the pleasure of this darling man in your life. I'm not sure even if you tried to explain his nature that she'd understand. Not to mention she knows everything.
    Deep south - only hog I know is as in
    pigs.
    First, take a deep breath - sm
    Yes, the school should have called you, but they did not and you cannot control the actions of others, just your own.  You also cannot control whether the other mom calls you to apologize.  Should she have?  Sure, but again, what you do is NOT necessarily what someone else would do.  Set a good example for your son and let him see this for what it is - a small incident in the big scheme of things.  He will likely not even remember this in a few months unless you harp on it endlessly.  I would definitely let the school know about my displeasure at the events of today, but after that just let it go.  These things happen.  You cannot protect your son from life.

    Holy icicles batman ! It is -8 here in New England !

    How about where you live?
    Deep Purple Dress
    Bridesmaid dresses in a deep purple. Not sure if I should go for metallics- gold or silver or stick with black? The wedding is in the afternoon in church and a reception at a golf course. What do you think?
    12 inches is not deep pocket--sm
    12 inches is barely even standard these days. Mine is 21 inches deep. I need 22 inch deep sheets to at least stay on. You shop around and see where you can find that size for under 200 dollars. If you do, let me know!
    Yep. Normal. Just take a deep breath and
    They'll probably make peace in a few short years (when you're old and grey-headed and senile, lol)!

    Recommendations for deep friers sm

    Need some recommendations for a good quality deep fryer. My third one just bit the dust. Have used Rival and Presto in the past both only lasting 1 year or less. I don't deep fry a lot but get a hankering every now and then for chicken. None of the fryers I have bought in the past last more than a year, they quit right in the middle of frying. I sent one back to Rival, it had died 28 days after I bought it. They sent me another and it died 1 year later. On the hunt again for another and don't care the cheapies anymore.  Give me your recommendations. 


    Deep south, Virginia, nah I never
    thought of that as the deep south. We think of it as the northern most of southern states.
    I really can't imagine how deep this sorrow must be. (sm)
    I've only lost pets, and it rips my heart out to lose one of those special ones. The loss of a child would be absolutely unbearable. Time can only round off the edges of the pain a little, but never take it away. Not until you see him again in heaven. At least we have that hope.
    True, but I doubt Britney is that deep! - nm

    I was in a wedding with deep blue dresses.
    We had the shoes dyed to match the dress from David's Bridal. They have a big selection of styles to pick from and then you dye them, relatively cheap too.

    If not, then I would go with silver, just something simple though. JMO, but I don't think black would look great.
    Deep dish; Romance or comedy? nm

    Are you ready to be brave? Take a deep breath...
    Then do it and close your eyes real tight and be glad the minute you have done it (calling to have him picked up for psych eval) Then once you have him out of the house you can keep him out with a court order. Your life will improve. Are you Ready???? Be BRAVE! I was!!!
    Same problem for me. Deep pockets - Wal-Mart and Target have them.

    People are more polite in the deep south. There is a sense of decorum.

    I say silver. Will they be playing music by Deep Purple at the wedding? lol

    I am in a biracial marriage, not thick skinned, live in the deep south, have
    a mixed daughter who is 32 years old and she told me going to school she had the best of both worlds. Live in a very nice mixed neighborhood, just don’t know where this person lives who has to be thick skinned. Has never happened to me.
    Think what you need are called deep pocket sheets. Try Linens n Things, Bed and Bath, JCP. nm

    I think that is entirely up to you. I wish I had followed my heart on that one - sm.
    When I was pregnant with my first baby, I worked in a hospital and my co-workers kept telling me don't tell anybody until you know for sure nothing is going to happen and until you start to show. Then everyone said to not buy anything for the baby until you are past 6 months. For the record, I NEVER did start to show, my baby was born at 27 weeks. I bought my baby bed on Friday, and he was born on Sunday. He lived 3 weeks and 6 days. Since his death, I went on to have three more children, and I told the whole world as soon as I knew, and we celebrated from day one. So....please follow your heart.
    More so than heart, seems to be
    the ribs. I am gonna tell them they have to get to the bottom. Just pain medicine alone not doing it.
    My heart goes out to you
    and your daughter. Reading your post brought tears to my eyes, as right now my first cat I ever had is suffering from cancer. She is getting so skinny and I know it won't be long before we have to put her down. It makes me cry every time I look at her. She had surgery, but the cancer is already back, so there's nothing else to do for her. That has to be the worst thing about having pets, having to say goodbye. Just keep the memories in your heart and know that you gave her a wonderful life.
    Thank you, and my heart wants
    to bring in another, but the timing isn't right with me in school and expenses tight after all the vet bills. Besides, Sasha seems to enjoy being the center of attention. I'm thankful we still have her.
    my heart goes out to you.
    What it means (IMO) is at the least that he has a short fuse, no control of his tongue and not much opinion of himself. Its probably hard for him to hold you or anyone one else in high esteem because he thinks so little of himself. There's no doubt more at play too, but this behavior doesn't mean he hates you. I've been in this similar environment. Learn to love and respect yourself enough that those kind of comments don't devastate you. It takes time and effort. A person of this kind needs to change from the inside out. How long have you been married? I can't help but wonder if there is anything spiritual that you share with him. You can't change him, so concentrate on what you can change (yourself, your means of coping, how you treat your job, relationship etc). It's hard not to be depressed in these situations. I'm sorry he hasn't learned to appreciate you. Stay safe. There are people who care about you! e/m me if you like.
    I am so very sorry, my heart is with you.
    Sending all kinds of warm fuzzies to you. So sorry this is happening and you have to go through it. Please do one thing. Look in the phone book when he is around BTW for the local domestic violence hotline. It is an 800 number, it is confidential, and you don't even have to give your name. Tell them these stories. They are open 24/7 just to listen. They will make you feel better. Also, please make sure you are safe. Keep a cell phone with you at all times, and your important papers and the childrens' all in one place in case you need them. Do not let him know any of this at all. Also if you don't have your own bank account open one just for you and the children. Dont let him know. Also, please have a safe place to go. The hotline will describe all these things to you. They also will suggest a local center you can go just to talk someone, as often as you would like to go for free. He does not have to know that either. I am not saying this so that you should be secretive. I am saying so that it will not trigger his anger and the circle of control. Like I said, stay safe, call that hotline ASAP and listen to them and the outpatient counselor. I have been through it. You need people to love you and make you feel worthwhile again and soon you will have the strength to see why this is happening and how to stop it. Please call them and let us know here you are okay.
    My heart goes out to you . .
    and your husband. Best to get professional care as soon as possible. Get to the PCP and then a thorough workup and mental assessment. This could be any number of things - stress, a medical condition, a mental condition. Just the other day I read something that was fascinating. I read about a woman who was having trouble with her husband who was 60. His behavior was getting odd, and strange. After much workup he was diagnosed as having Asperger's, this coming after a full functioning life. I found this quite interesting. Get help and keep us posted. You are in my prayers.
    My heart goes out to you.
    They give such unconditional love, even those moody cats darn it!  So sorry about Sixer.  :(
    My heart goes out to you.
    It sure sounds like you are doing the best you can do. This economy right now is the pits, and it makes everything so much harder. Have you checked to see if any medical insurance is available through your state? Here in my state, Washington, we have an insurance program that you can qualify for if you meet income guidelines. I would sure check into that. If you don't keep your health, then you will have a much worse situation than you have now.
    My heart really goes out to you...
    When my 2nd son was in school, he was misdiagnosed with a learning disability and placed in an inappropriate classroom. I know what you are going through there.

    Do you live in the South? The reason I ask is because my kids were all born and raised until early teens in New England. They had wonderful schools and understood ADD (which is what my son has). He was not put into a special classroom, he was just taken out occasionally for extra help. Nobody he was in class with knew where he went or what his "diagnosis" was.

    Then my husband was transferred to Florida and what a HUGE difference in schools! The people in Florida, just wanted to label my son and put him in exclusive "special ed" classes only! There is nothing wrong with my son other than he has short term memory problems. But this school system created more problems for him than you can imagine! He was devastated and has really never been the same since that horrible experience.

    My 3rd son has ADHD and when we moved to Texas a few years later, he had an even WORSE experience. Not only did they label him, but the teachers openly taunted him in class. He got "written up" for typical childish behavior, nothing out of the ordinary, they just stayed on his back constantly. They treated him like he was retarded.

    I wish they could see him now - he is ready to graduate in May at the top of his class. He has completed 4 years of the Air Force junior ROTC and has already been accepted into a very difficult school to get into. I would just love to go back and show them how he turned out - in spite of their labels.

    I don't think your school district can prohibit you from accompanying your child to school if you want to. I don't think that's legal, but I would check into it.

    Good luck to you and if you just need someone to talk to who has been through the same things, feel free to e-mail me.
    My heart goes out to you
    I cannot imagine surviving through what you just described. Joel was very lucky to have such loving parents who obviously did everything within their power for him.

    home is where your heart is
    Home has always been Texas but almost seven years ago I married a wonderful man and my children and I moved away to the Northwest to make a "home" with him. I went home as often as I could to see my ailing grandmother who raised me. As much as I tried I just could never seen to feel at home here but life as it is my beloved grandmother passed away and Texas no longer was the home I longed for I was happy here with my family and this last year I gave birth to a beautiful little boy and ever since I have felt this inexplicable need to take him home, home to my grandmothers house (someone elses home now) and to feed the ducks in the park like she did so many times with me growing up. So this year I am taking my baby ??home?? to plant roses at my grandmothers grave like I did so many times in her yard and bring home some roses from her yard my mother was kind enough to save for me when they sold her home. So that I can plant them in my yard and create a special place to sit with my little one and tell him stories of my childhood and of the special angel he has to watch over him as he grows up. So where is home???? Home for me has always been in my grandmothers embrace and I thank god each day that I was so blessed to know such love and pray that he will guide me in being the same kind of mother to my children and hopefully they feel (or will feel) about me the way I do about her. So this CHRISTMAS tell those dear to you how much you love them. Merry Christmas
    Your heart is in the right spot
    trying to see after them. I myself carry around food in case I see animals out that I think might need a meal or if a friendly one comes into my yard, I bring out the food still. I would definitely be the same as you trying to fend for them.
    Bless your heart

    Bless your heart...Fox looks like such a sweetie.  I think the memory garden would be a wonderful idea.   Cat


      


     


    Aww, bless your heart! I still
    love what I do, but have only been doing it for 3 years. I feel totally blessed that I actually got to quit work when my kids were 2 and 3, go to school online and actually get to work from home so I can be where they need me when they need me. I can see why what else you're doing right now, though, is so much better than MTing! Have you ever been to Women of Faith?
    What about just giving from the heart?
    Why put such a price tag on something so trivial?  Jesus is the reason for the season! 
    trust your heart
    Trust yourself and trust in God, as well as your doctors. They would not want anything bad to happen to your baby. By the way, if you ever have a chance to go see the Body World 3 exhibit you would love the embryo/fetus exhibit. It is absolutely amazing what a 4wk embryo looks like and how he/she develops by 16 weeks into an absolutely perfectly formed baby. I wish you the best of luck. Please keep us updated on your progress.
    My heart goes out to you Hayseed - sm
    I know you loved him, and I am sure he loved you too. I am thankful your paths crossed before his journey over Rainbow Bridge. I know without a doubt in my mind that you made a difference in his life. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Buck's "family" who have heavy hearts tonight.
    Bless your heart.

    Head or Heart
    I followed my head, wish I would have followed my heart.
    This breaks my heart and they have others
    Gosh, if I could adopt all these I see- they are so pitiful. Watching the Animal Channel I see all the time. I know they want them adopted but I wonder if they know how much they are tugging at people's heart strings? I do for animals as much as I can and want to send some money their way.
    the way to a man's heart is through his stomach..sm

    You win!  All he'd have gotten here was liver and onions with brown gravy over wild rice and an steamed asparagus side.  


    Glad to hear he's clearing the way and checking out the lay of the land/waters before his wife gets here.  Sounds like a nice young man.  


    Go back down to landslide and try to type it into your browser...perhaps that'll work.

    Anyone know anything about heart attacks?
    A friend recently broke a date with me without letting me know and is saying his father had a heart attack on Saturday and almost died.  Said he had a panic attack and couldn't let me know what was going on. He has never been close to his dad at all and hasn't seen him in several years.  Was happy as a clam the next day after having a panic attack the day before.  Now today, Monday, a day and a half later, says his dad is out of the hospital and back at home and did not have anything done, no angioplasty, no stents, nothing.  Is this possible?
    you certainly have a miserable heart
    So, everyone else is supposed to give your candidate a break, but you feel free to come on here and bash a woman, Hillary, who chose to stay with her husband even after he told a great big lie. As far as the philandering, give me a break - if every woman left her husband for that, there might be 12 marriages left intact.

    I don't like Obama - he swaggers, he obviously thinks he is the Second Coming by his body language and his speech patterns. He has very little experience in anything of importance, whereas Hillary was doing voluteer work in grade school and never stopped. She worked without charge to help defend blacks unfairly charged with crimes when she was still in law school. She was with Marian Edelman (think that's the name) who started the Children's Defense Fund at the beginning, has never made money at that time and donated all her time, legal talent and paid her own airfares, hotels and meals to go to the D.C. for the board meetings when she was First Lady of Arkansas.

    Obama on the other hand has had his fair share of shady dealings with property in Chicago. I'm from Illinois and I can tell you that no one gets anywhere in Chicago politics without getting dirty. Obama voted present 114 times in the Illinois legislature - ridiculous. The man has no backbone and no conscience.

    You call Hillary power hungry - she has earned the right to be the presidential candidate. She didn't ask for it just because of her physical characteristics.

    If Obama is elected, it will be a very, very tragic day for this country.
    She is a heart-melter, that's for sure!
    I hope we get to see updates in her new home.
