I'm alive!
And on a totally trivial note - I finally figured out how to use a banana comb in my hair without it looking like a disaster.

That is really good news sm
It is really hard, and I am glad you found a solution that will work for you. Please, keep us updated and how she does in the new school.
Good news!!
 IT ISN'T BEDBUGS!!!
We had the exterminators over and they said they have extensive experience treating bedbugs, in fact they are fighting them at a local hotel right now along with a number of private homes.
They didn't see any evidence of bedbugs and they said the marks on my husband don't look like bedbug bites at all. They suggested that he see his doctor, which he is going to do.
Woohoo!! I am sorry my husband is suffering, but we are both GLAD it isn't bedbugs.
That IS good news! Now he can come in

Hopefully good news
I go to a senior citizens place and this morning found out they are starting ceramic classes the last of this month. First of all I am really pleased just to go but uppermost in my mind is the possibility I might be able to do my own gravy boat. I really love crafts, wish I had my mothers genes in that regard, but don’t so I need instructions and then follow along but still love doing things and might even get that boat I need. Lucky me!!
that really IS good news.....
Thanks very much for the info. I will definitely check into it as that is a huge factor in determining whether or not I actually do go back to school, (among other things, such as how much time will this take away from my family? I don't want it to take too much.)
There is good news.
(03-07) 13:37 PST SACRAMENTO -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger denounced a state appeals court ruling that severely restricts homeschooling and promised Friday to change the law if necessary to guarantee that parents are able to educate their children at home.
"Every California child deserves a quality education, and parents should have the right to decide what's best for their children," Schwarzenegger said in response to the ruling, which said children educated at home must be taught by a credentialed teacher.
"Parents should not be penalized for acting in the best interests of their children's education," Schwarzenegger said. "This outrageous ruling must be overturned by the courts, and if the courts don't protect parents' rights then, as elected officials, we will."
Good News
My daughter just got straight A+. She's in 8th grade, but she's in all accellerated and honors classes (9th grade). Now, if we could just get her in shape at home. LOL.
Sara your babies are adorable.
My good news: (sm)
A Trader Joe's market is going to open up not far from where I live.
My best friend will be visiting SF over Memorial Day weekend.
The Ka-Boom Festival is coming this month. (Best fireworks show in the Bay Area). Los Lobos, one of my favorite bands, will be performing there live. Should be XLNT!
good news
Going to fiance's niece's wedding tomorrow (Derby Day) then in 2 weeks going to Vegas for daughter's wedding..
Good news
My son just called to tell me he won his high school singles as well as his doubles tennis match and the his high school won overall. To H with the Tux. Well, some of you will know what I am talking about.
this is good news
to me anyway. After working the last two months to get estimates and paperwork together, I got approved for a home improvement loan. New furnace with central air, new roof, new windows, new doors, new front stoop. Well, this is exciting to me anyway.
my good news
Going away over night with my husband to a casino and see Jay Leno with friends. First time we have been away without my daughters since we were married and that was 28 years ago.
My good news
My youngest son is graduating high school in less than a month with state and school honors and got offered a huge scholarship at one of our state schools, which he has proudly agreed to accept. He wants to pursue chemical engineering and work with alternative energy sources. This is our bright future, and I am so proud.
My good news...
My daughter, who graduates from high school in a month, got accepted to the college she wanted to go to this fall. She was thrilled!
Good news...
No debt but the mortgage, vacation next week for 3-1/2 weeks.
Well, that's not good news.
I love their microdermabrasion stuff that smells like oranges. Too bad. Not nice to hear. Thanks for the notice.
He is a monster. Good news all of this has been
nm
It is good news......but the only thing is
from what I have heard he is still getting paid (or already has been paid) for doing the book. I only hope that the families can collect what they won in the civil suits from what he is being paid.
That is such great news. Good for her....
 That is wonderful for you as well. You must be so proud. Best wishes to her new path in life! I love bragging on my kids, too, and I thank them each night when I tuck them in (12 and 7 years) for giving me reasons to brag, and they just smile! That never gets old, ya' know? Enjoy !
Good news! Glad all went well.

Glad you got some good news to
make you feel a little better.
Pleaes do post updates as you can. Hope the radiation isn't too rough.
I love good news and this is certainly some
I had posted this morning asking about pup-pup and I was really worried it was parvo, glad to know the baby had its shot already for that. Thanks for the update!
Good news today for me
I posted about this a few weeks ago. I had tile put in throughout my grand room, porcelain to be exact, spent over $8,000.00 for that and lo and behold something that was supposed to be the tops started getting spots all over it. Not only that but I noticed some scuff marks. The installer came over, the people from the tile company came over, even the manufacturer from Italy came over. That was put in in May, now September almost over. I wrote a demand note to the installer I wanted it redone at his expense (I paid him for everything up front) and before the letter had time to get to him he called telling me the tile company going to pay to have it completely redone. I am a happy girl. Even though I love the porcelain, needless to say afraid to choose the same and going with another kind. Keeping the old fingers crossed!
'statins - any good/bad news? sm
I have been placed on generic Zocor, low dose, and really hate being on pills, I don't know why he wants me to take it h.s., but take Tricor in the morning, along with two BP (nifedipine and Atacand) meds. I just hate putting stuff in my system, feel like I'm poisoning myself and perhaps it's my imagination, but I felt better taking nothing. BP has improved but my overall health feels compromised by all these pills and my stomach is not too happy.
How about some happy good news
Anybody got any? Seems like lately there has been page after page of bad news, news stories and more. Now please don't think I'm knocking anyone for posting them but I really really need a pick me up today and I think a lot more are needing it too.
Sooooo that being said....does anyone have any good news to share? Anyone preggers, expectant grandparents, bought a new outfit, shoes, jewelry?
While I'm thinking of good news
y'all can enjoy a pic of my furbabies, they always make me smile.
Glad to hear the good news -sm
Thanks for the update. That is good news! You have eased my mind about having it done, and I hope to do it real real soon. I know I've put it off long enough. Your messages have been so encouraging and much appreciated. I'll keep watching in case you post any more good news. ;-)
I am SO happy to hear the good news - sm
Have you tried offering her the AD food you get from your vet mixed with Pedialite? Very high in nutrition. I also like to offer them the meat baby foods and small pieces of ham or whatever else they like. Cherish every day with her. Love her. Put her needs before your own no matter what. I think you will know when it is time to let her go. Focus on the joy she has brought you over her lifetime. I will be thinking about the two of you. :-)
I heard some really good news, look inside
I also am in Georgia and perhaps you have listened to Clark Howard or Elise Glink who fills in sometimes for him. She was talking the other day to a guy who wanted to get into nursing. The opportunities are endless right now. Places are actually paying for any and all tuition, etc. you need - in return you work for them for ?? don’t know the length but if I were you, I would definitely go for it. The pay is otta sight, the rewards many, and you know with MTing how it is going! I do not think you would be doing the wrong thing if you did. I hope you will look into the issue of having the lot paid for you, what could you lose? You might try looking on Glink's web, you could get in touch with wsbtv consumer line and they will give you that link (that is out of Atlanta if you don’t know). Good luck with that!
Thanks for the good news! Enjoy your baby! :-) nm

Good news on Lucy, the destructive dog
I have found humane society that arranges spaying/neuturing at no cost to me except for $5.00 for antibiotics the animal hospital charges. Lucy's mother tells me this morning she has decided probably best to give her up. I have found a place that rehomes animals through Petco- group of ladies- they take all animals as their own and animals can be returned once adopted, no questions asked, if they do not work out for the people. I reallly feel fortunate to have found this group of people on Craig's out of Atlanta.
Glad to hear the good news! Now.......

Okay good news first, the running will stop at some point.
My youngest (3-1/2 now) did the same thing, and my 5-year-old never did either. I was mortified with his behavior and the worst part was my dh thought I was overreacting. Then he took the kids to the store alone one day. He came home and said "Wow Tommy is naughty in the store", well duh!!!! that is why I look like I have been through a battle when I get home from the store everytime. At about 2 1/2 he started listening and got psyced about holding on to the cart with mommy, or even better riding in one of the "car carts" that they have at the supermarket. But anywhere that he needed to sit still for I just ended up finding a babysitter until he was more calm (around 32 months).
My 5-year-old starts school this year too and she is having the same issue. She is not a shy girl by any means,but she is soooo worried about K. I think it is normal and I am hoping that she will be okay once she gets there and is involved in the activities.
Sorry I guess this was not really much help, except to know you are not alone.
Hey - that's great!! Nice to hear some good news (nm)

Read really good news on reverse this morning
including FHA which is for only over age 62 and which is insured. With anything people need to check these out. There are really good ones out there and thanks for bringing this up again.
See, I knew if I posted after the noon news it would be different after the evening news! LOL nm

Fox news
And . . . you're more upset about the poor grammar than the actual subject of the story - a man shooting his supervisor!
not new news here in FL
well Howard murdered Daniel and Anna Nicole for one reason only-- dinero there are things reported here in Broward-Dade that arent on the national news
They better not. According to FOX NEWS
she was handcuffed and tossed in cruiser. I missed it. SHUCKS.
news
Yes this is terrible. I am surprised the family members didnt freak out and run back and get the doc. YOu can bet i would have been screaming like a freak and grabbing someone if that was my family member
any more news?
nm
Yes, that's news to me too!!
we have pets in our house but can't say I've ever heard the above.
Old news
Yes maybe old news, but isn't it still illegal?
Much news
Thanks for asking. CJ had an ultrasound, which confirmed the pneumothorax but they could not find any tear or other reason for it. Because they had serial chest x-rays (yay me) and now the Doppler, they are confident there is NO LUNG CANCER. They were therefore good to perform thoracentesis, and this released 3 liters of air (wow). CJ is now resting much more comfortably. They will check for any re-accumulation of air at 5:00 and release anything they find, and if all goes well, we can pick him up at 5:30. Then we will hope that his body is able to heal. There will be rechecks. We will be tapering off the prednisone but give him doxycycline to prevent infection. Pretty good compared to thinking we were going to have to put him to sleep, eh??
I will attempt to get some money back from that first vet. Turns out the pneumothorax was clear as day on that FIRST chest x-ray, the one they only took because I was so insistant he couldn't breathe.
Prayers are appreciated!
I saw this on the news also
And was wondering the same dang thing. People do not use their heads for some reason. And then go on TV and expose their stupidity...not me! If a psychiatrist asked me to pull up my shirt, I'd lay him out and leave...then call the cops.
Wow. So much. First of all, I'm sorry for this news. Awfully sorry. sm
I can't imagine that kind of diagnosis.
After being severely depressed most of my life and then finding God (please don't move this to the religion board), I have determined in my heart and mind to live life to the fullest each and every day. I play lots of board games with my kids, call my mom, keep scrapbooks and journals, teach 2 classes at our church, and I study the Bible avidly.
I try to show love and kindness to every person in my life. Whenever I'm with others, I try to make it a point to listen twice as much as I talk and show genuine care and concern. I call people I haven't seen much in church to check up on them. I pray for people all the time. I take long, hot showers. When I am off work, I actually don't work! I can go on and on and on. I don't want to think of "if I only had so many days left," because I know that tomorrow may be the day I die. I don't want to waste any of it right now.
I am aspiring to be a speaker and travel the country giving my testimony, writing books, and encouraging women (especially depressed women) that THERE IS AN AWESOME PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE. You just have to find out what it is and live it. Every day.
I saw this in the news also. They say that one
of the things that may have helped save his life is that workers like this are taught what to do and how to brace their body in case of a fall. I can't imagine I would have my wits about me enough to remember what I was taught. This truely is amazing and definitely the work of the Lord.
News to me
Riley Children's Foundation -Riley Hospital for Children is my choice. :)
I saw this on the news the other day...how sad
they let out child molsters and rapists at the drop of the hat but it's a big deal to let this guy out long enough to see his daughter. what a sick society we live in.
Yes, just saw that on the news. Here is more
BREAKING NEWS
updated 11 minutes ago
NEW HAVEN, Connecticut - A spokeswoman for screen legend Paul Newman said Saturday that the actor had died at age 83.
Spokeswoman Marni Tomljanovic said Newman died Friday of cancer. No other details were immediately available.
Newman was nominated for Academy Awards 10 times, winning a regular Oscar in 1987 for "The Color of Money" and two honorary ones. He was equally at home in comedies such as "The Sting" and dramas such as "Hud."
So sad. What a handsome man he was.
