Is the case you're talking about in Atlanta?

In Reply to: Cameras anywhere? - Liz

That story was all over the news here.  I even threatened them with that particular case and how the general public doesn't like stories regarding injustice to children or the elderly and maybe I would contact the local media about this.

Yes, the case was in Atlanta
The rings he took were from a young, married mother and her husband was relentless in finding out who did this. Not only was he able to recover his wife's rings but others saw the guy on TV and he also had committed crimes against their relatives. I definitely would ask about cameras that might be there. The home should want to assist.
Case in point - I am talking about people thinking things out
I said some women went to a psychiatrist. He asked them to strip - which they did- he is a psychiatrist- he does not do physicals. They are on television telling how they pulled their blouses up when he asked them to. Now do you understand?
You're not a hopeless case! sm
Each day is a new beginning. Don't give up. There must be something you can do to keep your mind/hands occupied. Give yourself small rewards, take hot baths, get some exercise, etc. I could rant forever. My husband went from cigarettes to cigars and he visited my Dad in the ICU after he had his lung removed and threw his smokes away for good. It is a genetic disease, I'm sure. My sis used to wish there were a 12-step program for smokers. There must be a support group online. Try Recovery, or use a 12-step program online and replace booze talk with smoking and see if a winner, not a loser, be the "victor" not you can get some help there. You are the "victim." You are worth the effort. Some pills do cause nightmares, try Benadryl at night. I'm rooting for you! Being in this profession doesn't help, it's very stressful; thus the need to relax, I understand, please don't give up. If you don't have a PCP, try a walk-in clinic or the pharmacist, you never know, they may have some good advice. Think of the $$$ you will save, use it to pamper yourself and your self-image will improve. You can do it, baby steps at a time. Remember, every day is a new start.
We're sort of a "have to" case, too.
My son was having problems with bullies and stress migraines to the point of being sick, so we've prayed about it and started this year homeschooling. It IS a LOT of work. I am pretty much a single mom most of the time, with my husband on swing shifts. There's about one week a month that he's home any amount at all. So, my son and I are in this together, just me and him, and I am trying to work and spend time with him. The teaching is really very minimal because he is pretty much able to teach himself...very gifted. I spend at least a couple of hours with him daily though, for interaction, and I spend a LOT of time planning, doing records, etc. I am thankful to be an IC...no schedule to keep, but on the other hand, I'm not getting MY work done until late most nights. I hope we fall into some sort of routine and I get to do more of my work in the daytime soon. It's sure hard to get up and get going when I've had about 5 hours sleep. Thanks for the reply.
That's what we're talking about
It turns out he stood me up because he had been told I was too young for him, and didn't know how to say it. Yeah, that sounds lame, I know, but I believe him. We were only kids.

Anyway, we've talked about, if it lasts, sticking it out till we're old and gray, and eventually meeting again when we're both free. This may or may not happen. NOne of us are getting any younger. And, no, I'm not going to just sit around waiting for my husband to die. I've had a full life for 41 years - I can wait another thirty if necessary.
Not sure who you're talking to but
I never asked you for any scripture and my post above didn't have anything to do with any scripture either, but the statement about sodomy and where our laws come from. I do not believe in sin, so no, I do not believe that homosexuality is a sin. And you're right, there is no convincing me. Ever been dead and seen for yourself? I have. The bible was written by men - again, and again, and again. It has as much credibility.
You don't know what you're talking about
This lady posted about her son a year ago, so this has been going on for a very long time. If it was a natural relationship, it would have died off long ago, but this girl insists on bullying this boy just because he broke up with her.

I think the girl is borderline, if not full blown, psychotic and as a mother I would be very worried about my son, too.

You can not live in the house with your children and not be involved in their lives. Did you not have children? They come to us for everything and yes, it does affect us emotionally as well.

Please don't beat up on this lady anymore, she's already dealing with enough. Thanks.
If you're talking about Pizza Hut then....sm
the $1.50 fee goes to the restaurant to help pay the base salary for the drivers. I know because I asked the manager when they started this practice a few months ago. I usually give a 20% tip as they always deliver pizzas to my house within 20 minutes and faster than the internet says they'll deliver when I place the order.
You're not talking about age discrepancies.
You're talking about fraud and mental incompetence. It has NOTHING to do with age.


We're talking hamburgers here

Just finished watching the food channel and they had the star's favorite burgers. Some of them sound so good that I have made a list and going to buy what I need tomorrow to fix me a big juicy burger. Does anyone have any particular way they like to fix burgers? Just in a burger kind of way today I guess.


You're talking about 2 different posts. Please don't bring that
I don't care which side you're on. I'm just getting tired of the boards all being covered with religion. Take it to the Faith board please.
We're talking about kids; not adults.


If you're talking about the open letter
to MDI & other companies using VR, it is the 3rd flame down on the company board . . . should've been on the comedy stop board if you ask me . . . LOL!
if you're talking certified public accountant
You could contact the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants). They are supposedly responsible for professional discipline.
Im not talking about a check. Im talking about a positive administration working FOR Americans and
Not receiving a check each month to help us out is not what got us in this mess...
What's the difference between talking on cell and talking to person sitting across from you?
You should be ignoring people at other tables and MYOB.
She wasn't talking to you, BTW. She was talking about the 2 posters below! nm

Am not talking politics here at all, talking
about how she views the southern culture which apparently she knows very little. I do not care about her politics- what I care about is by making a statement like that only shows a persons ignorance. My maid is working today, has lived in the gettos all her life in a big city and when I asked her about it she said something she has not seen in maybe 30 years. In her neighborhood there is all sort of crime that goes on (well, that is about everywhere) but if anyone would see it she would be 1. Like I say, could care less about Whoopie's political views other than the fact she got that wrong. Neil Boortz also was saying the same,;he said she was probably still holding the south in such a light because of her inability to go into a upper class restaurant here in town dressing in blue jeans. Being as she was born in NYC, we southerns still say da.n yankees! So true here.

So sorry it turned out so horribly bad! I hope in the end it is not a permanent black ink blob on your marriage and soon you can drop some bleach on it and wash it clean. Its good you are able to cry it out and not turn to spiteful hate. Another AFGE (af-ghee) - "another f***** growth experience". I hope you can still love your husband as he is.

(((hugs)))
Has 1 in Atlanta
but have no plans on visiting as sure would be disappointed - my husband is top chef and most restaurant ventures just do not match up.
Thanks for the tip. I'm near Atlanta, and I'm sure there is one here.
I love a bargain, and we have been wanting to volunteer for HFH anyway, so we'll sign up for that as well!!
In Atlanta in the 80s, blizzard
here, nothing running, things closed down, a real mess
I just moved from Atlanta and believe me when I say
most of the people there could care less about your lineage, would just be another good fight for them. Just spoke with my daughter and she told me a coworker of hers yelled at a person going through neighborhood driving too fast and the person got out and came back after her. Scared the girl to death and my daugher said she would not do that again. I have moved recently to a wonderful quiet place but still return to Atlanta to get my housekeeper. Making the news yesterday was young male, got upset with neighbor, got a gun and sprayed the neighbors home hitting a 2-year-old child inside his home, killing it in the mothers arms. Read about the killings here, for nothing. It the part about backbone for me, my kids would find that funny as when they were growing up they used such words about me like aggressive, outspoken, etc - but people say with age comes more wisdom.
It is 4 stores around Atlanta, don’t think
national. Let me settle up there first and then I will update. Let me say this, and this gives me hope, the court person the other day said a big chain owed $10,000 and when the truck pulled up in front of their store to load,the checkbook came out so I would like the money back - if not I take more furniture than I bought in the first place. I bought dinette but if I have to remove plan on 4 complete dinettes with 2 sofs and 2 chairs. Already have my wish list just in case!
I love Atlanta!!

the hot weather doesn't stop me either. 


My DH is leaving in just a little bit for Atlanta
He is going on business for the weekend (we are in VA and have about 2in of snow now and more on the way) and he is taking my DD along for a little Father/daughter bonding. We have been following the weather and saw that it is in the 30s today and up to in the 50s tomorrow then back to 30s on Sat. with snow expected. My daughter is going crazy trying to decide what to pack. LOL
Outskirting Atlanta but come on down
we got rain after the snow yesterday and then some sleet, worried about the road situation but everything stayed just above freezing- cold here, needing coats, gloves and etc. but not unbearable. Coming here, though, still apt to see some with their sandals on, always happens!
bad weather in Atlanta
My sister lives there but they just got a lot of thunder and some rain, northeast of Atlanta. I hate to even hear the word.  I hope it quietens there soon for you.   
Northeast Atlanta is around 1.79, but
my husband saw it for 1.69 at one store yesterday.

Wish you would send some this way (Atlanta)!

$2.04 in the Atlanta area. It was $2.15 last week. nm

Regarding bus accident on Atlanta Interstate

I was just curious to know if any of you ever experienced that intersection.  From what I see on the news, it looks extremely dangerous.  I can't imagine the powers that be would allow such an "off ramp" to exist as it appears on TV.  I mean, it looks like the HOV lane, which is the "off ramp" ends at a stop sign at the end of an incline? 


Apparently this is a frequent accident intersection.  Hopefully this tragedy will encourage some sort of modification. 


Around Atlanta it's $10/night/pet with discounts for ....sm
multi-pets in a family of usually a couple of bucks/pet/night.

We rarely board ours as we have a couple of trusty neighbors (1 an 11-year-old and another an adult) who are usually available to check on our "children" while we're gone and we pay them $20 a day to come by 3 times to let the dogs out and make sure all animals have food/water. It sure beats the $64 a day we'd pay the vet's office for the 8 that would have to stay, plus the animals get to stay at home.
My girlfriend went to school here in Atlanta
with Gladys Knight at Archer High.
I got it at QT in Austell.... you can check Atlanta gas prices....sm
at http://www.atlantagasprices.com - I'm seeing prices all around $1.99 to $2.04 posted on there from consumers. 
My sister and her husband are both teachers in Atlanta and -
The word is that many teachers will pass kids out of their current grade just to get rid of them. They tell me the biggest fear of the teachers is to have to teach the same problem child twice! They also say that some parents INSIST that their child be passed no matter what. So sad because it is the children who suffer!
On 1 Atlanta radio station this morning...sm
they were begging listeners that if anyone out there actually voted for this guy to please call them and explain why.  They couldn't get anyone to call in other than folks saying that they are wondering if people are voting for this kid to annoy  Simon. 
No, Reynolds, GA. About an hour south of Atlanta, I think. nm

Georgia, 30 miles south of Atlanta
lots do here, just where you live I suppose. I for 1 am glad to take hubs last name, no problem with that for me.
Really? I am in Columbus, GA...An hour south of Atlanta - are you in GA? nm

Back from Atlanta early..Remember me from below? :( nm

We ended up fighting most of the time and ended up coming home this afternoon. We didn't go to this restaurant I wanted to visit so bad, nothing.


 


Got home, didn't say a word, and then WWIII began.  Words flew! Emotions flew! It's so, so sad.  I heard for the 1st time tonight that he doesn't think he can live like this anymore.  He's never said those words to me before.  We're both hard headed, completely opposite, and continue to hurt each other.  He's passive, apathetic, quiet, I'm outgoing, bubbly, fun - he makes me mad, I make him mad. It's like we can't appreciate the differences in each other. It makes us angry.  I wanted him to be EXCITED about taking me to this restaurant I've been talking about for weeks. Instead he grumbled about traffic.  Finally, about 3 o'clock today I just said, "FORGET IT! LET'S JUST GO HOME!!!" And he turned the car around and we went home. I couldn't believe it!  Of course that made me appalled!  I didn't really mean for him to take me home early!! Doesn't he know better?


So when we fought he told me he couldn't read my mind and I yelled, "after 10 years how can you NOT read my mind? You KNEW I didn't really want to go home!"  And on and on it went.


I'm sad tonight. Sounds so stupid and immature on both sides, I know.  I just wish he would open up and be romantic, not complain, and just be sweet. Be something! Be excited about being in Atlanta with me.......I'm going to bed alone tonight and I'm going to cry.


Up to 2 last night watching about tornado that hit Atlanta
I live really close to there and so much destruction, unbelievable that it went right downtown. Today we are having tornados over Georgia and I get scared just hearing about them. They are in the upper northern part as I type this. Pray for everyone to be safe.
The only panda, I hear, born in the US this year is in Atlanta, yeh!
I do not have membership but used to live within walking distance of the zoo and signed up to volunteer when we originally got the pandas so able to get in before the crowds to see them. Immediate fall in love situation. If you are able to get the AJC or Atlanta TV channels, they have their panda weekly exams and it is a big awwwwwwwwww for me. Can hardly wait to see her. What a present for us all!
Try not to let your vivid imagination ruin your Atlanta experience.

Sigh...No, I am near Atlanta, GA. I have tons of responses to "ship" her, but i just don't
I want to ship her to a stranger, although, YOU sound like the perfect fit for her. She adores our boys and treats them like she is their mother, but she needs a good, stable, loving environment right now. I have to take our son to the doctor again at 3:30 again for severe coughing and respiratory problems..
Yippee!!! We've got some snow in the Atlanta area!!! sm
I can just envision some of you will be laughing at us.... but right now we have about an inch on the ground and maybe some more to come tonight.  4-6" are expected in the northeast Georgia and mountains area.  Bring it on!!!
Snowing here in Henry County Georgia right below Atlanta

Courts in Atlanta lied to, kids given to nonfamily members
I know for a fact, had 2 grandkids, my husband's daughter by previous marriage- we took in, their g'father died, I had in my care for awhile- real mother went to court, lied to have children stay with a nonmember (heard stories before about this person selling/doing drugs) and the courts turned them over. For the most part, I am very glad to be out of that swinging door system, otherwise known as the court system.
Oh Wow. Staying in downtown Atlanta in a historic hotel. This place is haunted. No one

told me this, I am a Christian and I feel this heavy spirit following me everywhere I go! How crazy is that? I believe there is something here at this place. It is a beautiful place, but definitely something spiritual going on here. This was the place where they had some Gone With The Wind ball many years ago. Very strange.


 


We are here visiting and going to the zoo, children's museum, and aqauarium this week. Wow. I have the chills right now! night night


 



Spending a romantic weekend in Atlanta with hubby. Leaving at noon. Can't wait! nm
