My SIL changed a couple weeks before she had my nephew.

In Reply to: changing your OB in the last month of pregnancy? - worried.

She had to work it out with her insurance who would be paid what but if you aren't comfortable, don't go back. I'd complain to the hospital about the nurse too.

going back a couple weeks....

anyone remember when - forget his name - sang * geek in the pink * ?  I LOVED THAT....have downloaded the original to my iPod BUT he dedicated it to his grandma and after he sang it, Paula asked him if his grandma would know what geek in the pink means and he just shrugged. 


Can someone tell me what * geek in the pink * means?  I am over 50, have asked my youngest, who is 25 years old, and she did not know.  Figured SOMEone here could clue me in before I go around the neighborhood jogging and singing it out loud!!


TIA Idol Fans!!


PS - I also downloaded the Jamiroquai song the other guy sang.  Those were the two BEST renditions, just love those guys.


I sent mine from PA a couple of weeks ago

Hope it got there okay. 


I just love his face!  He looks so sweet.


A couple of weeks ago my was acting
pretty much the same as yours. I posted on here about it and wondered if she was trying to tell me something. Within a couple of days she was back to her normal self. Give it over the weekend and then follow your instincts...call the vet if you feel the need to.
For a couple weeks after my dad died, - sm
both my mom and my brother saw him either walking in the hallway or working at his desk. They said it was very clearly him, and they had no fear - they knew he had just come back to be sure everything was OK, and that my mom was running his business correctly!


You posted this a couple of weeks ago,
Just curious, why again?
we're heading to Maine in a couple of weeks
Can't wait- love the shore in the summer. What part of Maine are you in? We go to the Wells/Ogunquit area. Would love to stay at Drake's Island just can't afford it in the summer! :) Any restaurant recommendations?
Wow, a couple of people need to take a couple of happy pills!
j
I used to pay my nephew to ..sm
Take care of my sheltie for part of our vacation because my DH would come along to the beach for a few days and then he'd be home the rest of the week we were gone. I'm glad DH didn't go last year because my dog died while I was gone. I don't know what my nephew would've done.
My nephew is so cute :-)
He's about 6 month old now.  I put him down for a nap and he refused to put his legs flat so I could cover him, so I put the blanket over his legs the way he was.  He proceeds to put a foot on each cheek, reaches between his legs and pulls the blanket up to his chin.  He looked some someone with fake legs with his feet like that.  I was tearing up laughing.  Such a cutie pie. lol
My nephew did the same thing
but he came around eventually. Have you tried any of the books for kids like "Everybody Poops"?
Nephew and car -- sorry it is long
My nephew is a Police Captain and this is what he has done with his boys.  Oregon also has a law stating that for the first six months of having your license you can only drive with family members in the car, which they did.  They had an older car that needed some fixing up and so and my great nephew (his oldest son and I)  I went to junk yards, got the pieces that were needed, and then he and his step grandfather put it together and made sure it was mechanically safe and that was his car.  Because he was in the Honor Society, he got a cut in his insurance but if he ever dropped his grades he would have to pay the difference.  He had a part-time job while playing baseball and making All Stars and got a college scholarship for baseball and paid for his gas and running around.  Then when he graduate and started college he got his own car and could not believe it but this kid does not care about fads or whatever and got a Ford Taurus because it was in good shape, could haul his baseball equipment and had air condiitoning.  He paid for it himself with graduation money, jobs, etc.  He is still doing well.  The second one was basically the same.   He drove the older car that we fixed up when David got his new car.  Again they were not embarassed or anything.  They just wanted transportation.  He then got a part-time job, he was not in sports so could work more, saved up money and bought an older Blazer because he is  fisherman and wanted the 4-wheel drive.  But he again has good grades, and stays out of trouble. But they are responsible for the up keep on their cars, etc.  I think it all depends on the kid and what they are involved in and so on.   They appreciated everything that we all did to help them, they take care of their vehicles and are proud of what they have done.  But I think that by running errands and doing things for you she is paying for the car and upkeep.  If she is busy and has good grades and stay out of trouble, help her all you can.  If her attitude is great, again help her.  Just as long she doesn't expect it and appreciates what you have done.  And not one of them have gotten a ticket or been in an accident and are 18 and 20 now.
Have guy cousins in early 20s and my nephew
is 17. They shop a lot at Macy's. We're in the NY area. Apparently certain brand names are "in" like Ecko, Sean John, Polo, etc. but can be very expensive. As far as hairstyles, maybe check out the hairdos on some of the clothing/store websites. Here's one from Macy's. If I lived near you; I'd help with the makeover :) Sounds like fun. lol

Heard from my nephew in Iraq!
I have written briefly about my 19-year-old nephew who is involved in this latest operation in Baghdad to route Al-Qaeda insurgents. Since it had been announced that his Division/Brigade was one of the primary groups in this action, we've all been just sick with worry. I just wanted to let you guys know that I had a very brief "I'm ok" email from him last night. He can't really say what he's doing or anything (naturally) but we're just sop happy to hear that he's okay. I can't think when I've been happier to open an email in my life! So I just wanted to share that happy news and to thank those of you who are praying/sending good thoughts/etc. for all of our troops. It means more than you can possibly realize.


On behalf of my nephew and other GIs overseas, THANK YOU
My nephew reports to me that the anonymous gifts to guys in his unit have been pouring in, lifting their spirits and reminding them of why they are so far from home at this Christmas season. Obviously, I don't know who all of the packages are from but to any of you who have remembered any of our servicemen and women overseas, thank you from the bottom of my heart. These kids (and they are mostly kids 18-25, in my nephew's unit at least) have seen awful things and mostly have to always be on the alert - how BEAUTIFUL that they have been remembered.
Clueless too and that's what I need to know! I snooped on my nephew's my space...uh-oh
I didn't sign up or anything - I just did a Google of his name with my-space and found it that way...he's not private. He's 18. So how would it/he know who I am? Anyone?

And the best is when I told my sis (his mom) and she said YOU DID?!?!?!?!?!??

I said, didn't you?

She said yeah.

LOL!
Just took my 10 y/o nephew to see The Last Mimzy. What a great movie
t
That's for sure, but my nephew's wife is a school teacher and
actually lost a job some years back because she took a child by the shoulder to calm him down after disrupting the class. They are not permitted to do anything, and God knows so many of the homes these kids come from don't offer any kind of structure or discipline. It is a shame, but we are just letting the morals and beliefs we once stood for be taken over by thugs. The neighborhood I grew up in as a child was once a very nice neighborhood. No one dares go there now. It is in bad shape and filled with drugs and violence.  It breaks my heart.
Holiday gift for nephew in Iraq

I'd like to send a gift/gifts to my nephew in Iraq. This is his first Christmas away so I know it will be hard for him. If possible, I'd like to include something personal just for him and maybe some stuff for his buddies to share. I asked him point-blank what he'd like and, typical guy, he says "anything" which is of NO HELP at all. I have no clue what they're allowed to have or not have.


You guys have any ideas? Thanks!


Update on son graduation/nephew wedding

For those of you who may remember - my son is graduating high school this year and my nephew decided to get married in the same month.  I had received an email from my SIL stating that my son's graduation best not interfere with her son's wedding.  (longer story - that's the condensed version). 


Anyways, my son's graduation is May 15.  While at my SIL's today, they announced the wedding is May 11.  SO, definitely no conflict (whew) but after a few minutes I realized that the 11th is on a Monday (apparently it's cheaper to get married during the week).  And the wedding is in another town which means trying to get off work, get changed, gather all the kids, travel out of town (hour and a half away) and then get back home since the kids have school the next day and the adults all have to work the next day. (definitely not going to stress about it though and will be planning my son's graduation party for the following weekend  )


Warren Jeffs' nephew speaking out - see yahoonews
Apparently the boys, including himself and his brothers, are also molested by this monster.  So he is just a horrible child molester who has brainwashed women into giving birth to new victims for him!!!!!
What would you all do? My SIL is making my DH attend my nephew's HS grad in Texas this June...sm

We live in Illinois.


He would be taking my youngest son with him also.  The total cost of the trip for the two of them would easily be $2000 since my DH does not get paid for taking time off work.  If he takes this trip that would mean no vacation for me or my other two kids next year since that's pretty much all we can afford is one vacation a year.  She is insisting her only brother (DH) be there at the actual ceremony which is on a Tuesday evening.  Then afterwards they plan on going out to dinner to celebrate - no party that would be it.


I would rather we go the following week, drive the entire family and stay the week and celebrate the whole week with them.  My son graduates high school in two years and I don't expect her to be at the ceremony for that.  We probably wouldn't have enough tickets for her anyway.


DH doesn't have the guts to tell her "No" since she's laying the guilt trip pretty thick. 


Do you think we are obligated to go to the ceremony?  She has more than enough family members that live over there that could attend (grandparents, aunts, uncles, her other children).


Thanks for any input. 


Admit it that YOU put yuor nephew's and your SIL's inheritance share into your POCKET.
It is me who 'got it' very clearly.
Even if you have not changed anything - sm
you can still develop an allergy. I was told years ago that your body chemistry changes every 7 years or so; don't know if it is true, but it seems that way in my experience. I have developed shampoo allergies in the past totally out of the blue, as well as skin sensitivity. Do patch testing on her arm, place a dab of everything she uses on her inner arm, leave on for 24-48 hours (no showers) covering with a band-aid and then check to see if there is a reaction. That is how I found out it was the shampoo I had been using for years; stopped using the shampoo and my rash went away instantly. But regardless call the dermatologist, make an appointment, I cannot believe you have not called them because you think it will take too long to explain to them the problem; tell them skin rash, period. It may just be a reaction to the drug she is on as well, so once she is off it still may take weeks to clear up and she may need somethings to counteract the reaction. My daughter a few years ago had a reaction to Omnicef, they had to put her on 2 other drugs to get the rash to go away, then taper her off them once the rash disappearred, took about 2-3 weeks for the whole process. Call doctor today, get her in ASAP!
5.4, I think. But might have changed since this was

I can't get into it anymore...has it changed?..
I just get "picture of the day" and not the live cam I used to see.  ???
This was some years ago and probably has changed
but I was the custodial parent. My ex-husband stayed behind in child support, never caught up and owed me over 3 thousand when my child reached 18. He wanted me to "drop" off my child at another place, did not want to perhaps run into a new guy at my home and the judge said my child not a puppy dog, if he wanted to see he would have to pick her up there. Whatever the courts say, not what you or the next one says, is what goes. Getting the police involved is fruitless- they will tell you need an attorney, go thru the courts, etc. Calling them is taking up their valuable time and they are not at liberty to state who a child should go with. What kind of court order is there and if not, there certainly should be something before you start playing these games. I do not think nonpayment of child support now days plays any part in whether a child is allowed to visit with noncustodial parent. Basically when a court says so, you have to abide by their orders.
Things may have changed
when he was like 2.  I will never do that again.  They put a bunch of needles filled with different types of serum up both of his arms and all over his back.  Then they had to be watched to see which one he reacted to the most.  The allergist claimed he was allergic to every food out there and every tree and mold.  So, I just laid off the milk and kept him inside on high pollen days.  He would have been bubble boy.  Thankfully, he's fine now other than an occasional sinus drainage problem, which I think the pollen or something or other must be high right now. 
Yes, a friend of my DIL had this and changed
for the worst. She lost weight in her body but her extremities did not and she did not look that good. She changed completely in personality, went from mother and part-time teacher to thinking sex goddess, running around with lots of guys, stealing- things she never did before the bypass. I also saw a television show on bypass surgeries and the stories were similar to this, lots have experienced complete character changes.
In many ways she has changed
Far from perfect but definitely better and being with Nick has definitely helped. Of course, she was just recently holding over Sharon and Brad's head their affair and could go to jail for it, so I guess that is the Phyllis you remember. I have only been watching the show for about 3 years.
times have changed
dont make a big deal about it or it will become a big deal.  so buy her the little sports bras that look like half T shirts.  this is also good in the winter as it helps keep them warmer.  no big deal.
The age for some retirement has changed
I am almost 65 (next March) and my retirement age is 67. It has gone up with people living longer and people born around my year and later will find their social security starts later than 65. I am still working and hope to continue- I have retirement money starting next April from place outsourced from (being independent contractor, that will probably pay part of my taxes for the month, ha!) I guess I should go ahead and contact SS so I can find out if and when I should sign up.
I have a friend who changed her name.
She now wants to be called Sunshine. It would be one thing if the name fit her, but she's the most negative, complaining person I've ever met. I refuse to call her Sunshine. She corrects me whenever I call her by her given birth name, so I just roll my eyes and call her, "Hey!" I think it dishonors your parents to change your name. I've known her by her given name for over 20 years. I'm not changing just because she decided she doesn't like it any more.
A lot has changed in 5 years --

I don't have any personal experience with bankruptcy, but I have a few friends who do.  One of them filed several years ago and I think a lot has changed since then.  I don't think it's as easy to do anymore and I think you still have to pay some of it back.  It's also harder if you have assets to file bankruptcy, so you might want to look into it a little better.


On an another note, it's rather upsetting that so many people think (and not just you) that it's okay to just throw your debt over your shoulder and walk away.  I'm sure everyone has their reasons for racking up the debt, but in the end, it's a decision you made.  I think people should be more responsible for their actions.  Too many people live for the moment and let the rest of us pay for it.


I would have changed seats anyway sm
Less inconvenient than being sick! If I see someone coughing or otherwise obviously sick, I hold my breath as I walk past them if I cannot go way out of my way to walk around them...lol. I used to be a classroom reader with the first graders at my son's school...I built up quite the immune system that year ;) Didn't volunteer this year for my daughter's third grade class...lol
remember they changed it?
It always happens before Halloween however someone in the government changed the daylight savings time weeks... my calendar on sunday says "daylight savings time ends". does that mean saturday night, i guess someone said below!
Unless things have changed
As far as I know, you have to have a converter box, if you don't have a HDTV TV. You can't use a DVD or VCR player for a converter. Maybe what they meant, is if you need a converter box, and don't have one, the only way you can watch your TV, is using a DVD or VCR player, playing the DVD discs, or VCR tapes.

I have bought 5 converter boxes, ending up taking two back. First one I got was a Magnovox, and I didnt' like it. My antennas wouldn't fit it.

I took it back and exchanged it for a RCA one. I couldn't get my money back, with the coupon, so, had to exchange it, and am stuck with the RCA one. It works OK. Not great.

Then I reviewed and found the TiVax was recommended. I got it. I liked it, till I got a DVT Pal today. It is better than any of them i have tried. I traded a Zenith for it, didnt' like the Zenith. My antennas wouldn't fit it, either. So I took the Zenith back, got the DVT Pal.

The Pal is the only one , so far, that I have gotten 4 stations. The others I have only gotten 2. With the ZEnith, I got none. I think I'll stay with the DVT Pal. I have one more coupon left.
No slump here so nothing has changed. NM

Wow, the place sure has changed!
My hubby and I went there on our honeymoon in 1985. It was very quiet, and we went all over the place on scooters, taxis, and even rented a jeep and drove up the peninsula some 100 miles or so to see the ruins at Chichen Itza. At that time, the airport looked more like a bus station!

I would have had a great time, but it was January, and I had the flu... REAL influenza; the sort of illness where you feel like you're going to die and you just don't care. I started feeling a little ill even before we left home. By our first night there, I felt horrible and was sick for the entire week. All these years later we laugh about our honeymoon and how I walked around Cancun like a zombie.
Wills cannot be CHANGED. They can be
be contested, but the involved heirs have to agree and consent to the change in distribution.
Without their agreement nothing can be changed.
Have you changed anything in your diet?

My sister had horrible migraines about 20 years ago to the point where she thought she had a brain tumor.  She found out that she has a  lot of allergies to food, MSG being the worst one.  She has to read labels very carefully and the big thing to stay away from is turkey.  Turkey has it's own natural MSG that would put her in bed for a day with a headache if she ate it.


I hope you find a remedy that works.


Maybe the office has changed their
policy and will not just renew RXs without an exam.
Even if he truly changed, I'm just not sure if I could love him again.

I just don't know if I can ever completely trust him again and there is a panic that rises in my gut when I think about him coming back home and things going back to the way they were.


He used to steal money from me in order to buy booze because at one point I just decided I could not trust him with money, even if he had a dollar he would buy a cheap can of beer at the gas station.  He had booze hidden all over the house.  He would look me in the eye, drunk as a skunk, and say he hadn't been drinking.  When I asked if he had booze in the house, he said "no" without batting eye.


I just don't want to walk around feeling tense all of the time and worrying if he's telling me the truth or not.  Even if he does truly change, how do I get rid of my doubts?  I don't know if I can ever completely trust him again and I don't want to live like that.


Hang on, though. The rate could have changed...sm

If any payments were late (or missed), the rate could have gone up astronomically for the OP.  They may well have gone up and up.  It's probably in the fine print of the card agreement that that will happen automatically with late payments. 


And I have heard financial experts say that it's not a good idea to call and cancel a card if you still have a balance on the card, because then you have no way to negotiate with them.  Though it doesn't sound like any negotiating was able to happen in this case, you're supposed to keep asking for the person's supervisor (and their supervisor, if necessay), and be persistent, until you get to talk to someone who can help you with lowering the rate and maybe waiving some of the fees.


Then I would apply for another card with a lower rate (and make darn sure you don't make any payments late or miss any payments!) and transfer that WA MU balance over (and ask if they can wave the transfer fee when you apply for the new card).


BTW, I recently applied for a credit card with WA MU because the offer was for 0% interest for 15 months on balance transfers, and the person was definitely in India.  Every time I interruped him to ask him a question, it was like he then had to start over reading his "script" but I could understand him. 


I asked if he could wave the balance transfer fee, and he said he was unable to do that.  I didn't persist or ask to speak to his supervisor, but I should have.  According to the experts, the time to negotiate is before they have your business.  After they  have you as a customer, they aren't so interested!


 


Mine is changed every 12,000 miles but
i do not use the regular oil that other cars use
I read this was changed 10 years ago what with

20-40 young adult


40-60 adult


60-80 middle-age


80-100 old age


seems a better fit in today's world of people living significantly longer than our ancestors.........


I got a couple of years until I hit middle age according to what I read 10 years ago or longer..........



Hubby changed dermatologists after...

arriving for what he had been told was the first appointment of the day, only to learn from eight other patients that they had been told the same thing.


Call again, things might have changed - nm

would not want scoring method changed
because if the judges had too much weight on their scores, there is never a question of who wins -- this way, a person can impress the audience with their overcoming obstacles or rate of improvement, etc, and may get to rank up there with someone who has more natural talent. This makes it more fun!
Name changed legally in the courts and
the reason for the change, he tells me, is he always since a child did not like his given name and as adult, when he could afford, changed it in the courts. He thinks the only reason they are not calling the new (like I said, old name like Lewis and new name like Lou so it is just a shortened version) is just not respecting his wishes. He has told them before, not just this time. The entire name was changed but this is the catch, when he got the thank you note for the flowers sent for the funeral, they came in his newer name!! The person who died, his aunt, always sent him notes, cards, etc. in his new name so not everyone in his family not acknowledging, only the younger siblings actually (those being in the 40s,50s group). So your answer, not just at this funeral time and did because simply hated his name for years. In talking about your friend's name change, I see you emphazied if it MEANT that much to her, pray tell, why do you think someone might do otherwise (other than being in witness protection??) Another thing, just to let you know, his mother prior to her death knew, respected and called him his newer name.
MiraLax changed my life. LOL
Seriously, though, eating a high-fiber diet did not change my issues until I met MiraLax.

I am also having some success with probiotics.
Mine's almost 47, hasn't changed. nm
