Probably the statement I made saying I'm wondering if this is all there is to life would be sounding like I'm depressed, but honestly I'm not. I've been married for 25 years and I'm a very optimistic person. So much my sister-in-law once told me - "can't you ever be upset about something without trying to find the good in it" LOL, and I do laugh a lot during the day. That's not to say I don't have an occasional "down" time, but in today's world who doesn't. I'm just tired of being "dumbed down" by the news and now especially with all the election coverage. Just getting tired of our news media whores not giving us the truth. That's why I feel like I'm living in a Matrix and this all is not real. I think I will follow the advise of one of the posters and turn off the news for a couple weeks and instead turn on the Food Channel and pet my cat. :-)
thin!

Thin....

I have a great family, so I am loved.  I have an awesome God, so I am forgiven.  I have a nice life, so I am content.


Would just really like to be thin again.  Heck, I'll settle for thinner


Great question, BTW!


For you thin MTs - how do you do it??? (sm)
I have met some of my coworkers and they are thin as can be - I have gained so much weight since I have been MTing full time.  How do you do it!!???
Is your child really thin?
I noticed you said soccer and dance- females have been known not to have periods at all if really, really thin. You will probably hear from others saying to take her to the doctor- I have a daughter and I would say probably is normal with just starting- it would not be that much of a big concern for me.
I'm thin and my husband is
sort of like that too. Nothing like what I'd heard men were like. Apparently the availability of internet porn is one possible explanation. On CSI they called guys who can't enjoy real women anymore a "porn creep." Another possible explanation is that he has an undiagnosed medical problem such as cardiovascular disease or diabetes, so that the only time his body responds is in the morning, when testosterone is highest. This isn't just a sex problem; it's a communication problem. Getting guys to open up and express their needs/concerns/issues is tough. I've always been impressed with the way Dr. Phil discusses the differences between men and women, and how issues can be resolved, but out of laziness I'm not motivated enough to push my DH to resolve his issues. He does show his love and appreciation of me in many other ways, so I'm just living without the physical side marriage 99% of the time. Oh, my DH claims to want sex, but he also expects me to attack him in whatever way it is he wants to be approached, and I'm stubborn in my believe that he's the one that should be coming to me. That's all it would take to get me turned on, and the fact that I've actually been rejected many times when I tried to make hints or even flat out requests has really turned me off. Nope, if he wants it, he can just approach me.


No offense but if that's what thin people have to eat...
I'd rather be fat. LOL
Maybe you do have an eating disorder. You don't have to be thin
to have one.    If your weight is an issue you the one that has the power to change it.   Been overweight all of my entire life, but this is the year I'm determined to tackle it.  Just too bad I didn't do it 20 years ago. 
People being thin skinned again.
Trashy people, as you stated, can live anywhere. Britney and her family definitely fit the classic trailer trash. Don’t have a thing against trailers, my father had 1, my aunt had 1, I had 1 before- but surely to goodness when someone says that you should understand matter of speech as to denote people who fit the bill of lower class. If you don’t fit that saying, then I would not worry.
ever try freezing the thin mints?

Oh, he still could be married. Never too rich or too thin! NM

Why do some thin women dress
like hoes? I'd rather see the outline of a roll through an ill-fitting shirt than see some girl's entire butt crack. That's just NASTY.
Don't be jealous of those who are thin...most CAN do something about their weight if they tried.
NM
People are so thin skinned now days, tell me
why if a woman could not have a baby, would she be going into a store and picking up a can of formula? Honest to pete, I have about heard it all now. There are millions of women who can or cannot have children. What is the big deal about birthing? You said all you have to go thru, like? This is an either you can or you can't. It is simple. I had children and chose not to breastfeed, did not feel any way different from a person who did. I think once labor you about have it made.
LOL, I like pizza in Italy...thin crust...sm
But there are many NY foods I crave (live in the south now)......actually entire neighborhoods I crave...Chinatown, Little Italy, Germantown, etc. 
Slather them with a thin coat of vegetable oil SM
and rub on some salt, pepper and a little red pepper.  Put them in a baking dish and bake in the oven at 400 degrees for an hour.  Then you can slather them with barbecue sause and serve with some rice and veggies.
That is what I thought too-blood!! and JuliA is way too thin.

Another good faith based one is Thin Within
you can Google Thin Within on the web also. It focuses on how you feel about yourself. After going through it for the first time I was able to separate ME and how I felt about ME from how I felt about the extra pounds I carry.

I have avoided Weigh Down because I have some issues with some beliefs and practices of the founders, but I have heard it is a well designed and good program.
Dancing Thick crust or thin
!
Do you think you look better with a little extra weight as you age so your face doesnt look as thin.
Just curious as to what you think. 
Thin socks ALL the time. Can't use my pedal barefoot or with shoes. nm

When my children were teenagers they did not drive at all.  Even tho I worked full time, I took then where they needed to go & picked up to return home.  Explained to them that if I could not take then, they did not need to go.  This included the prom....No discussion, no argument.  They understood that I am their parent, not a friend & besides, I was not going to pay insurance for teenagers.  My youngest twins graduated in 1986 and after their freshman year in college (no car) I had them take defensive driving.  They purchased their own vehicles.  The year they graduated high school, several schools in the surrounding communities lost, if I remember, around 10-12 teenagers in car accidents......The twins I am referring to are now 36 years old.


Thanks for your reply.........sm
I understand what you are saying and I was not physically forced, no. But I failed to mention that while I was telling her I was really not comfortable with what she was going to do she sort of got angry and said, "just let me do what I do"! At that point I thought, well I must be completely wrong, after all she is supposed to be the expert, no? I am not yet gray and my natural hair is dishwater drab blonde which is why I do only highlights and not color as I mentioned. And this has never been damaging to my hair. But when I do go gray, I may keep it natural as well ;)
Thanks for reply
Please keep me updated on how things are going for you.

OK--number one, since no one knows me, you don't know that I am interfering, or will ever interfere, just came here to "vent," since this board is anonymous.  Have been nothing but supportive of my daughter and kept my feelings about the ex to myself--never say anything critical to my granddaughter.  Number two, Emily DID get an Easter basket from her mother--just not a huge one crammed with candy, toys, and unnecessary cr**.  My former son-in-law needs to pay his back child support before he buys this type of thing.  Number three, my GD's father is the one who has always spoiled her, and my daughter has HAD to be the disciplinarian and "heavy."  Finally, for those who said to be more conscientious with dental care, my daughter, who is self-employed, had to beg him to carry dental insurance with his company after Emily was born--he said it was "unnecessary," since he has false teeth and would never benefit from it personally.  This is the kind of father he was/is. 


Thank you to all who offered kind advice and sympathy.


 


 


Thank you for your reply!! sm
I am with you - I guess not many people here scrapbook. It is my passion - and the only thing I splurge on.

I have not tried any of the programs because I usually like to do my own thing, but I have seen some that looked kind of interesting at Target and Wal-Mart. I can't remember the brand. I have been tempted to try one just to see what they had to offer and maybe some more ideas. Thanks for the website - I'm going to check it out.
Thank you for your reply. NM

To which I have to reply...

Thanks for your reply. I could not
agree more. The problem here was not, and I emphasize was not socialization. I know this dog, I know the history and I know the people. Any Rescue group thoroughly checks UT homes before placement. These people in her former placements simply did not know what to do for her after giving all the love they had. It took a long time, and it has been recommended when a dog has this amount of fear to actually lie down on the floor face down so the dog does not fell threatened, let it slowly come closer to you. My friend cried herself to sleep and many days over frustration. She is the one who did not give up.Unfortunately, as you pointed out, money is the bottom line mass breed these poor animals and have them packed in filthy cages with wire bottoms for profit. It sickens me.

What you need to do is take the ink cartridge out of the printer and very carefully shake it gently so the ink is spread evenly. The reason it is not printing uniformly means it is getting low on ink.
thanks for your reply (please see msg)
I hope you don't mind, but I just pasted your answer and sent it to my husband - he is staying the last two nights of the campout and will get my email that is printed out by the staff at the camp facility. I also know that the leaders read the emails before distributing them and I thought your answer was awesome! I want my son to enjoy scouting, not be miserable. If he is going to be miserable, I would rather he not do it at all. I am a Brownie leader for my daughter and have a full-time job so I don't feel I can dedicate a lot of time to Boy Scouts as well but I think I am going to tell my husband and the other leaders that if things do not change, and my husband insists on making my son go to the campouts, I will be going as well.
Thanks for your reply--
-- if you can't understand why I'd be offended by his comment, then I cannot explain that to you.  You may be right, he probably knows he would not be my first choice for my daughter and no one is really--she and my granddaughter been hurt enough--I want to tell him (and may yet) that I would die for those girls and I hope he would as well.  But he makes them happy, I can accept it.

ok, thanks for your reply
he did clearly say 'met,' he was very easy to understand.  maybe his tongue slipped and he meant to say meal or something else.

I understand that it is a poor state.  It also has no state income tax.  I've done as much research as possible for discovery, but I certainly appreciate any and all input.  I'm told it's very beautiful.  He wanted to go where he could do cross-country skiing, etc.


While all divorces are different, if I mentioned his last name it would stand out big-time.  He comes from money, but has never been materialistic (but I was fortunate to have the same situation)..  I know he's a saver big-time, so that's my aim.  His mother bought a house for him for $130K, which he admitted.  It's not revenge, either. I wish him the best.  Like Donald Trump says, "It's nothing personal, it's just business."  Oh, survival, too!


The irony is that both our families are just about identical. My brother is paying for my $300 per hour lawyer.  Full disclosure here... 


Thanks for taking time to provide your 2 cents, when you could have been making huge bucks from the Q!

We have tried the kindness thing as well this did not work.  The situation at school, at least with my child, was a threat on a child's life and not being sent home right away as well as some other threats about having to eat bread and water due to low $$ in account.  It is has to stop.  Our children should not have to go to school in fear.  They also should not have to worry about eating!!  The last one is a real biiggie as several mothers  have reported this.  THanks all 
Excellent reply!
Happy Hanukkah by the way!

Does it start today or tomorrow? I have two calendars that conflict each other.
thanks for reply, but no, not using headphones now.
in fact, i did test the speakers on my 'job' computer and they do work. but i cannot hear sound on a video my daughter sent on my personal machine...so am not sure if i have some settings messed up or if my sound card is gone...or if possibly it is just that video. but i thought i remembered before hearing sounds when you go in and out of e/mail and web pages etc...?? don't want to test for this other job and then find out i have no sound...
Thank you so much for you reply. That sounds

Thank you for the reply and the tips.
Been thinking of going the natural route myself. There sure do not seem to be any good diagnosticians around today like there were years ago. Nowadays, most put the symptoms into the computer and see what comes up. Well, I can do that too!

I've been reading up on the many diseases and syndromes that affect multiple body systems that often go undiagnosed or are treated separately for years, probably partly because everybody is a *specialist* these days.

But the last two I saw actually called each other, so HEY maybe they're finally onto something! lol

Gotta have a sense of humor or it'll make you insane.

Sorry to hear of your problems. And I'm glad you are doing better!
Thanks for the reply..I actually put a "V" on my calander for her. sm
She was actually mortified that I was "signaling" to everyone what was coming, but no one else has noticed it but us. Anyway, I figured with three girls, plus me I needed to start doing that to keep track of everybody later on when they have all started. My husband thinks we should by some stock in Tampax! LOL. Thanks again for your reply.
Standard reply, it seems, but...
I would take her to the vet.  When my cat stopped using the litter box, it was because she had cystitis and associated the pain from the infection with the litter box.  It might just be because your cat has been outside, but better safe than sorry.
I don't usually reply to things like this, but I have to
with you that even with you he'd do the same?  He's not a nice man or he would have told you from the start he was married.  He sounds like scam artist, and if I were you, I'd get away from this weirdo.....    
Not one reply as of 5 pm has made(sm)
mention that Sadgirl has a child.

Why is that not a huge factor/motivator in these replies?


I wasn't going to reply to this but
the more I thought about it the more it infuriates me. What child deserves to be hit? Should I hit someone just because they aren't behaving? What about when I'm out shopping and I encounter a rude person who is cutting in line/grabbing at things, etc, should I hit them? How about if someone cuts me off driving should I run them over and "switch" them? We are the adults here and children DO NOT deserve to be hit for any reason. There is always another way to deal with their behavoir. But then again, I guess as long as you don't leave welts its fine right....despicable
You are so right. Often afraid to reply
becuase don't want to offend anyone. I really didn't think you were being mean, just want to make sure. BTW, my kids and my furkids are genuises! LOL!
reply to Anon sm
I can see where you are coming from but there is a simple answer - change the channel. There is plenty out there for everyone. I get sick of the ugliness myself but it pays the bills for the stations and it amuses small minds. You have to have a bigger set of values and flip the channel, change the station, put on some nice music, read something positive, take a walk, etc. There is an old song with the lyrics, "You gotta accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative and don't mess with Mister In-between." It's all out there, you don't have to pay attention to it or you will be just like "them."

Thanks for yoiur reply...sm
I have often seen your posts signed as bassetmomma and have always wanted to ask you about your bassets! We are so happy with her..she is by far one of the best dogs we have ever had. She seems to be traumatized by quite a bit from storms to just being anxious if we are not right in the room with her. The vet seems to think it is just because of her being left behing as a baby. She was 13 in a litter of 13 and was the runt out of the group. All of her brothers and sisters sold right away but she didnt. As a result she just sort of gave up and was just dying. When we went to see her she hadnt eaten in a couple of days. She crawled up in my 13 y/o daughters lap and ate a small amount of food. We knew we had to bring her home and make her well again. She has certainly wrapped herself around our hearts.

Thanks again for your post.
