Running around barefoot ruined my feet

Now I have to invest more money in Birkenstock's because arches have fallen. As a person ages sometimes those really good feet might come back as oh, my aching feet.

Ruined it for me LOL
I was looking at gab board during the commercial and ruined the results for myself. Guess I will go watch Big Brother or top chef.

I am ruined
I would have to buy some garanimal outfits, black pants, payless pumps and knee highs. Keep change in my wallet to eat out of the vending machine and learn how to commute again!
ruined credit????
Went to work for a company about five years ago.  The pay was EXCELLENT, however, they paid me "when they got around to it."  Now my credit is so terrible I can hardly qualify for a home loan!!!  Has anyone else experienced this problem????  Still suffering after having quit four years ago!!!!!
I have always been barefoot
I have big feet and there is NO WAY that shoes fit. I learned that day 1 of school...LOL! You are not the only one. When it is cold out, light slippers.
Your credit is ruined because you didnt do anything about it

Barefoot always smiling
and what about the commercial about the donuts with Rachel with that dyed black hair. Ugh! It at least used to be pretty brown with gold highlights. I told husband she looked like Motricia.
barefoot comment
Did a foot doc tell you that's why your arches fell? My foot doc told me years ago the best thing you can always do is go barefoot when you can and otherwise wear ballet type slippers around the house and flats otherwise. She said women have ruined their feet with heels (I know my mom did.) I'm 65 and am barefoot in the house almost all the time. Hope you footsies stay comfy, though!
Yes, that's what I heard too, that going barefoot
is the best one can do for one's feet. Thanks, so I will continue going barefoot.
I agree, the show is totally ruined...
Definitely not the same. It is so sad that you have morons like that guy running that website and Howard Stern in this world who are apparently so miserable themselves that they have to ruin things for everyone else. Total downers. I guess money doesn't buy happiness, huh Howard?

Simon himself said that if Sanjaya wins he is "done". So it just may be the end of AI, as you said.
Thin socks ALL the time. Can't use my pedal barefoot or with shoes. nm

Will they all be barefoot or wearing flip flops? Would just go for a simple sun dress or sheath,
s
depends on if you are 4 feet 11 inches or 5 feet 9 inches...
don't you think?
Running...
Isn't it funny how one subject will lead into another? Do you mind if I ask you questions? - like, how long have you been running? how far do you run? How long did it take for you to get motivated to keep it up? I joined a women's run/walk clinic last year and really enjoyed it but it was in the evenings and I had other things going on, work, etc so didn't get to do it but for just a few weeks. I've wanted to start running but just haven't. They've even put sidewalks in our neighborhood now. I don't have any dogs to run with although I might could use that excuse to the hubby to get one. I can't run on a treadmill for some reason - the flooring is too hard on my feet? - i can run on a cement track though and it doesn't seem to bother me. TIA!
He had the running fits and
loved to ride the trains and probably knew loads of people all around the country so I have first hand knowledge of not always a down on your luck kind of deal. He came from a wealthy family (his grandmother gave us stock in General Motors as a wedding gift- years ago when it was worth a lot) and there were physicians, ministers, teachers and the like. He had a degree in refinishing autos, had good homes even with my brother and at 1 time my mother AFTER our divorce - the entire family loved him but that is what he wanted, left the homes and stayed out there until he really aged. My son and his wife got call from shelter asking would they take him in and the ahelter paid his 1 way ticket to their home and he has been there now for the last, oh probably 4 years. It was his own choice, never anyone elses and know from experience you can be homeless by your own doing.
Thanks everyone! Running to the store to buy
stuff now. By the way, she's 8. Sorry, I forgot to say that before. Thanks again!!
tell her if she does not stop running she will not sm
get to go with you anymore. Find someone to watch her and stick to your guns. kids need and want consistency. Make it stick.
re running to get keys
to go outside -- if you have to get keys first -- what are you going to do in case of a fire? If you have keyed dead bolts, you ought to leave them in the inside of door for safety.
Get this one, ad running here in town
It is a person supposedly in medical field and she is saying got a job at XYZ and says "see what X college have done for me." I want to call the place, tried to find a number- is that the way you want to be represented? Terrible English.
Thanks - they are running a special
It's for 11 pieces including brushes, video, etc. I'm starting a new job in a couple weeks and if I don't get it by then I'll check out WalMart.  Thanks for the tip.
That ad has been running for almost a year in

our newspaper, also with the "must order within 48 hours." When I saw that, it rang a bell for another heater I did buy and was I ever sorry.


I would have checked out the company claims a little more before jumping on something like that.


Another point: You will not get the amount of heat you do with wood. Can you possibly convert your wood heater to coal and wood or even pellets?  


We used wood for 20 years (Fisher stove) and I, too, was tired of getting up in the middle of the night 2-3 times. I begged for central heat in our new place and boy, was I sorry. I was always cold (for 10 years). So, last year we bought a used coal/wood burner. What a difference! I'll never go back to central heat again. That stove heats our 1500 sq. foot home and I'm never running around with sweaters on anymore. I don't have to get up in the night to fix it, either.


My son bought a pellet stove last year for his 3 story home. They love it and don't use their central heat either.  It does cost a few bucks more for the pellets.I think he bought $1000 worth, while we only spent $500 on coal and the wood is free.


Just remember when others are running you
down it is something wrong on their part that they would do this. Strange but sounds sorta like you married your father with the lecturing. Good men are out there. Took me forever to have a true love.
if you want to keep the car in good running condition. nm

Running over a dog and leaving the scene?
Going on her merry way, shopping or whatever...?

Probably doesn't have animals; I agree.
I think I am running a doggie day care here sm
LOL I have 2 dogs of my own a golden and a cocker. My son and his girlfriend magically get this chihuahua (sp?).  Anyway, he is apparently abandoned by his owner who moved to California and said she would be "back in a couple of months" to take him back. When he first came into the area, his owner had a "party" and the puppy who is all of 7 months old got into some pot and ate it-had to be rushed to the vet for nasty temperament changes, and wow talk about mean.  He bit anything and everyone including me at least 3 times. Well, we have all been working very hard with this little tiger to bring that demon temperament under control and he's coming along quite nicely, gets along with all of us, loves to play with my dogs and run in the yard. So what's the problem?  I think I have spoiled him with love and discipline. He has to come over every day now. It's so cute. All my son has to say is "want to go see the dogs?" and he's jumping all over the place. I sure hope the owner doesn't come to claim him back because he is so well behaved now. All he needed was a little discipline and letting him know he can't run the show. He doesn't even bare his teeth at me anymore. He's such a doll.  All the dogs lay in front of the full-view door and take their naps in the sun. 
I could see kids running through the house with sm

pieces of chicken I guess - and little greasy hands touching everything.  At least with spaghetti they might sit at a table - my opinion only -


Love doing that when I am running late and
need to fix something quick.
running out of minutes with a week to go sm
in your monthly plan. I have 1,000 minutes for $55, just got rid of land line 2 months ago and am very close to going over at a charge of 40 cents a minute. Geez. Guess I need to upgrade my plan.
What kind of people are the ladies above running into
I have never had anyone question why I was married or not, why I had 1 child or 2, why I this or that. Where do you live to have questions put to you like this? I live in the deep south and I am an older person and I just do not get questioned like this. My business is mine UNLESS I volunteer it.
I call ahead and ask if he's running late.
They'll usually tell you. Then I get some other errands done. They have said that if he gets caught up in the meantime you will have to wait.

Funny, but I find the earlier I arrive for my appointment, the earlier I get in. They must take arrived patients in if the scheduled appointment is late.
do you have any loose neighbor kids running around?
lol.... never know...  my neighbors little boy last year took his crayola scissors to my hosta's.....geeze
Regret not running off with my present husband who used to be my
friend. Yes, my friend and my late husbands friend. We started dating after the other died and if I had known what he was like then, would have left the husband and the kids behind. Never have known such happiness in my life. I wasted years and would like to have those over again- life goes too fast to waste time.
all for the sake of media, once again, running lives
I never started watching this useless gimmic of a show; typical media crap that it is.
I have sat here with tears running down my face, astonished
I had already heard the buzz about Simon talking about this person but had not seen. What an absolute joy to hear this. I thank you so much for sending. I will definitely forward to my daughter first and from there it travels on. A true jewel, she is.
Is this your Einstein-kitty running the printer?

What's on your feet?
I am curious if other transcriptionists have the same problem I have.  I can't seem to use the foot pedal with shoes on.  I am either barefoot, or wear socks or slippers.  I can't manipulate the foot pedal with shoes on.  Am I the only one?  If you wear shoes when you work, what kind?  Please don't tell me I'm the only one with this problem. 
I WISH those were my feet!! :-)
Those are my daughter's feet. Aren't they pretty?

The dog is a mutt. She's an incredible animal. She actually belongs to my ex. She's one of 3 dogs from the same litter that I raised, BUT everytime my ex came over, she went nuts. Like she was attached to him in some way. When I moved, I told him he had to take her because I could only take 2 dogs and he did. That dog is incredibly loyal to him in a very strong and almost psychic way. I know that sounds strange, but I've never seen anything like it.

Anyhow, I could tell you many stories about Clara (the dog). She has figured out how to get into child-proof cabinet locks (ex had to install them because when he left for work, she got into mischief -- she's 10 years old).

The rats.... we have 3. They normally stay in their cages because, yes, they will chew things up. But they are SO sweet!! My 2 other dogs aren't as gentle with the rats as Clara is (Clara actually plays with the rats), so they don't get out much.

I also have 3 mice. It is really interesting to observe the social and nesting skills of rodents. It's very obvious why they are such a nuissance in the wild! LOL.

My dogs are my sweeties, though, Clara's sister Izzi, and her half-brother, Fluffer. I'll try and post some pictures of them later.

BTW, love your doggie pics and your stories. I couldn't imagine a life without my animals. :-)

How could you know they were a kid's feet just

LOL !...Not only her feet.......nm

Filthy country - sewers running down their streets

That song drives me crazy! It keeps running through my head!

`


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. 


 


I meant to type that for scars which we got a lot of from running around and falling down..the
lemon juice really works very well for fading scars.  I will admit that there are some things on the market today that are really good; but from a personal (and financial) standpoint, what I learned from my grandmother does work very well for me. All you ladies have a good weekend...
Down booties or something for the feet?

For someone who is on her feet all day long
how about a gift cert for a pedicure. She would get a foot massage, pedicure, and a back massage if they have those magic finger chairs.
That is 5 feet 4 inches. nm

Happy Feet
My daughters just got done watching it. They loved it. From what I saw in between working it was a cute movie. But you're right, isn't it great to not have to pay for a rental, especially if the movie ends up being a dud? Better than paying the $8.75 at the theaters too.
I have a cat that does that!!!!! Jumps up to 6 feet

All I know is of course they have to wash their feet
because they sure "stepped in ****" when they came to this country! :)
I am 5 feet 2-1/2 inches. nm

First time I saw that was on Six Feet Under. Now

Stinky feet!

Help, hubbie's feet stink and not just normal sweaty stink, but really bad! He woke up this morning with feet very red on the bottom and when he stepped on the wood floor he said they felt like they were sticking, not like sweat but like something oozing from them. Sorry for the graphic description, but we can't figure out what it might be. Anyone with any thoughts or suggestions on what he should do would be appreciated. I, of course told him he should go to the doctor, but he is a man and is very stubborn about this unless he is dying! I should note he has a cyst on one foot that he refuses to seek treatment for because he does not want to take the time off of work as he will ultimately have to have it removed surgically, but could this be part of the problem and why both feet now?


TIA
