In Reply to: Would be nice if you read her entire - My thoughts
Plain and simple, you were out of line correcting the woman, whether it was this morning or 2 years ago (whichever version you're going by at this moment).
Just wrong.
Be thankful you (supoosedly) have superior language skills that permit you to be an MT.

I am 60 years old today. Boo Hoo
nm
Allow me to celebrate with you. I conceived my daughter 9 years ago today too!
When is your son's birthday? Just curious if it's the same day as my daughter's.
I can post today, but I can't read any posts. Anyone else
s
YOU_GO! Great post, today's 50 is yesterdays 30!
  
I feel the same way as what you posted - and I'm 58!! *winks* - feel 35, look 45, and I refuse to give up the Peter Pan complex/syndrome..
No I am post menopausal by a few years. What do you do for this. nm
:
Did you read the post where she said the girls were 8 or 9 years old? sm
and he was feeling their breasts? No, when I thought it was just a pass at her 18 year old sister, I was telling her to just talk to him and maybe go to counselling. When I found out how young they were when things started happening, I saw it in a different light.
What do you think of the quality of clothing today. What I looked at shopping today in nice stores
the stuff wasnt even sewn properly. Do you have to look at everything you buy or just hope it lasts a year.
Added fresh chives today. to the egg today.
and a SMIDGE of soy sauce.
My husband is 7.5 years younger. Been together almost 20 happy years...nm

My feelings; people shacking up together for years and years
and then all of a sudden deciding to get married don't need a thing, obviously. A shower should not even be given. I lived with my now husband a while (nowadays who doesn't!) before we married and I also had been married before years ago but he was not....so of course HIS mom wanted a shower. I told her absolutely not unless it was just the immediate family, his mom, sisters, etc, more like a celebration/get together. And so that's what we did. Showers are tacky, period. Unless it's a couple of young kids getting married straight out of the house and that doesn't happen much anymore.
Been with a man 13 years older, now with a man 4 years younger.
Younger is better, at least in my case ;)
Sorry, meant 75 cents. Still, that was years and years ago.

I studied to be a scopist years and years ago
Back in the early 1990s I took a course called Note reader Scopist. They read court reporter notes (those long skinny papers that looks like a cash receipt) and types them into documents. I had found the course through something called At Home Professions but just didn't finish it because it was too expensive for me. But I am familiar with them and even found my book from the first course I took. Looking back I think it would have been a blast if I had kept up with it.
It is definitely legitimate. A lot has changed since the early 90s, so I'm not too familiar with the industry now. I do remember what was really weird was it didn't take a lot for me to learn it. For instance I could look at a line of court notes and see something that looked like: NV p srn - and I seemed to know exactly what it said. Just weird. My DH used to say that I understood it because I was an alien and my ship crashed in Roswell. HA HA HA Anyway...that's what I know about it. But if you Google note reader scopist or at home professions i'm sure you could probably find a lot of info.
I have been vegetarian on/off for 35 years, was vegan for about 5 years sm
not that hard. Right now, I am having so many issues with food allergies and celiac disease, having to give up nightshade veggies...nothing left to eat. I am eating some meat now, but not when the gastroparesis sets in!
Being vegan is not hard...unless you are a celiac. This is how I figured out the celiac part because so many of the meat analogs and vegan packaged foods use gluten for the protein and I got really sick from it. I gave up all the premade things and the whole grains with gluten and I was fine.
There is vegan and then there is VE-GAN. By definition, vegans don't wear, use or consume anything that is derived of animals...no leather shoes, most shampoos and toothpastes are off the list, as are deodorants. No wool or silk. Anything with soap usually has animal byproducts. It is very involved and rather difficult to do.
Giving up meat, eggs and dairy is no big deal, except for cheese. You hear that ad about "comfort proteins" in a baby formula and there is such a thing. Mother's milk, be it human, cow, goat, whatever...contains a chemical that triggers the release of endorphins in the brain so that feeding feels good in more ways than one. The purpose of this is ensure that the nursed young want to nurse and thrive. Human milk has a lot of these, so does cow's milk and cow juice triggers the same reaction in the adult human brain. Cheese is concentrated milk and therefore these chemicals are also concentrated. As a result, cheese is an addictive substance. This is the hardest thing to give up when going vegan. Vegan cheese substitutes are nasty and they don't melt. If a dairy-free cheese melts, it contains casein, an animal protein and not vegan.
I studied this years and years and years ago
Most definitely is legitimate. In the late 1980s I studied to be a note reader scopist through a group called At Home Professions. I loved it, but unfortunately could not continue due to no funds. It was reading the court reporters notes which looked like a grocery receipt with a bunch of letters scattered on it. The weird thing was I found it extremely easy. For instance I would see a line that looked like: av e cr, and for some reason I would know what it said. My DH told me that's because I'm an alien and my ship landed in Roswell. HA HA. Well I know that a lot has changed, after all it's been over 20 years since I took the first course and know a lot of it is computerized now, but it is most definitely legitimate and I've heard people like to do it. I think I remember one of the courses was in medical terminology and another course was in legal terminology. Should be able to find a lot of it on google, or maybe go to your local college if they offer it and talk to an instructor.
This has happened for years and years, where have you been?
Frank Sinatra, Elvis, the Beatles, and on and on. This person is acting very normal like the age she is. You would have to have been under a rock to think differently, like this was an abnormal behavior....
Lost my mom 23 years ago and dad 18 years ago.
My son was not even 1 when my mom died....she was only 50. My dad died at age 59. So even though I feel your pain....I would have been very grateful to have them into their 80's. I guess we take what we get and be thankful. Sometimes it is hard though.
I was married for 13 years and 2 years
after my divorce I met the most incredible man. He was also divorced, we both have 2 kids, and though we are not married, we have been together for 9 years. They are still out there, you may have to go through a few marginal ones before you find him, but they are out there and available.
How is she today?
nm
She seems better today
She seems better today, sort of. She hasn't eaten anything since 12 or so last night, but she didn't puke or have diarrhea that I've found anyway. I'm going to call the vet and see about doing some IV fluids if she won't drink something pretty soon. She's just all sunken in looking from dehydration.
She is a very high stress dog. She's trying to sit even closer to me than usual and even tried to get under my legs while I'm typing but I kept stepping on her. I'm hoping this isn't going to be a long term issue for her  Poor dog. I'm wondering if maybe this is a recurrent thing and she was so stressed by her prior unknown situation that is what caused part of her being so skinny when we first got her.
how are you today?
nm
From what I saw today, I do not think
Noah will make it. Does not look good. Not sure about Jack since he is trapped with the methane gas and it looks like he was injured too after getting Sharon and Nick out. What a story line. I guess some people want to leave or are being fired.
I have today off....
Just started FT with a new company last week. I don't get paid, but I don't care. I actually have a holiday off without having to use precious PTO, like at my old job at the Q. I'm doing laundry this morning and then having lunch at my sister's with whole family. Can't wait!
Today is my day off......
normally I try to catch up on cleaning, laundry, errands, etc. Spent 2 1/2 hours at the doc's office...DD has strep. Sigh! Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans.
It was on today. sm
Only a couple of mins on the Toys for Tots. Most of the program was devoted to the studio audience, victims of the fire in the Santa Monica Mountains. Lots of gifts. Only a few mins devoted to Toys for Tots, but the kids looked really happy. Merry Christmas to them.
So OP, how are you today?? Are you ok? nm

Now, maybe, maybe not...44 for me but today...
I feel like I am maybe 64? Been working since approximately 3 a.m. and still a couple of reports left to do before a close my eyes tonight. So, what did you do for your B-day....
Got ours today
I'm happy about it, but it's going to help pay off a credit card so I'm trying not to think of what I really wanted to do with it.
Sorry-- Not with it today-- been ill
Please forgive me. I've been fighting a bug all week. 
I saw it today
I thought it was absolutely the sweetest thing and it made me cry a little tear also. It was heartwarming.
What I am doing today
I had meant to buy my husband and my daughter some cheese and crackers (they are getting other things) and almost completely forgot so went to the store earlier this morning and got 2 of each. Straightened up in the house some as having company over tomorrow. I am going to fix a picnic ham but hubby wants to be here when I start that later on today (he does not trust me much in the kitchen- goody for me). Much of the day is pure leisure- no more shopping, just relaxing. Nothing special for later on tonight.
I took her to the vet today...sm
I wanted to make sure of what the problem was. I took her and he examined the leg and said that she sprained it. He said there was no serious problem in it. He said that with her weight, she is a beagle who weighs 40 pounds, that by jumping on the couch and bed she probably sprained it. She is pretty fat to be jumping around. I said well have you ever seen a beagle this fat and he said oh yes I have seen quite a few. He said she is spayed isn't she. I said yes and that is when she got so fat after spaying her. He said sometimes that happens. The medicine starts with a P but it is the same basically as Rimadyl. It is for pain/inflammation. He said give her one every other day for 2 weeks. She had been taking one every day. He said since she seems to be getting better change it to every other day and then in two weeks just stop giving it. She is back to her old self so I guess her fat butt sprained her knee jumping off the bed or couch. God love her.
my b-day today
Today was my b-day. 49 years old. I handle my b-days really well. As my grandma used to say one year closer to taking a nice long nap. HA HA. B-days don't really hit me, but sometimes I just feel like I'm falling apart. Losing hair, now have rosacea (at least I think its rosacea), and these whiteheads like I had when I was a teenager, and i've got one of those nice nasty yeast infections. Started taking Monostat and now I've got my period. Then I go to the eye doctor and he sits back and says - so tell me about your family history of eye diseases. First thing I think of oh, this doesn't sound good (dad has macular degeneration - he said right away I don't have that). Well I'm on the watch list for cataracts. He said I'm not old enough for that, but it's upper high pressure (or something like that). Oh and I've got some membrane dystrophy syndrome where at night time the membrane doesn't attach to where it is suppose to attach and causes me eye pains for about 10-15 minutes every morning. Oh isn't life grand! javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
My ER report today -
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Difficulty pooping. 
Anyone else waddling today?
I feel like I have been soaked in turkey gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, and pecan pie.  I glanced a rear view of myself in the mirror today and said WHOA, love handles!!  Today and yesterday we have all been grazing on all the great left-overs from Thursday.
Anyone else feel full and ready to go on a diet??
Go today. Right now. Go to ER and tell them about bite.

Who has snow today? sm
Big snowstorm here in Ohio! It's been snowing nonstop since early this morning and isn't going to stop anytime soon. My husband's job even cancelled today! We probably have 4 or 5 inches already.
None today but everyday is like
Valentines to me, no difference, love, smooches, sweet talk, hugs, kisses and just everything I need in my man.
Today, 55 is the new 35; and @ 55 I still live like a 25-yr-old.
Haha... maybe the doc is in his 20's and right out of med-school? Or else really old, from a time when 40 was considered ancient?
You're only as old as you act and feel. So that makes me physically 25, and mentally 16. ;p
What is better than getting you pay check today?
Getting your tax refund also. I am now making plans for my vacation trip this summer out west!! I am so excited. I will use a tour company as my dear hubby and daughter neither one want to travel with me. Oh well, their loss and Yellowstone, here I come!
Thanks everyone! I'm convinced! I will buy one today! nm
Alice - how is your cat today?
nm
While out today, I was so tempted to
stop and get a pack!!! This is so hard, but I am doing it.
I cannot drink a coke though. It tastes really gross and I love coke. Dr. Pepper tastes gross too, but not as bad as coke. I've just been chugging water every time an urge hits.
Well, thanks for nothing! What is with you people today?!
All I asked for was a little help. We're actually going to see if the builder will put the fence up if we give a full price offer, but I have NO IDEA how much something like this costs INCLUDING labor in case they try to say it's some crazy figure! If they won't do this, then we're going to offer around $4000 less than the asking price, but I wanted to know if this would be equivalent to building the fence or not???
Yes, snowed all day today
I live in CO Springs and it has snowed all day today. We are supposed to get 2-3" today and more tomorrow. However, my daughter in PA tells me it is supposed to snow in the Poconos tonight, so you just can't win.
I finally saw it today ...
I was off today. First I watched it when DH left the house to run errands and I was supposed to be showering. Then I watched it again with DH tonight, never telling him I'd already seen it because he'd be disappointed that I already knew what was going on! But I still misunderstood a line between Juliet and Hurley. I thought Hurley said he REMEMBERED Juliet from the dock, when the hoods were put over their heads and they got shocked, and then she said it was her day off, like her day off from working as a doctor, so she joined in the fun of shocking the prisoners! Which I thought was wicked humor. But DH said Hurley said he DIDN'T remember her from the dock. I would have thought she was there, but maybe not.
Anyway, what proof does Juliet have that her sister's cancer actually came back? I don't remember Ben proving that, except with paperwork, which could have been faked. And why were we looking at a heart rhythm strip to see if her brain cancer had returned? Wha? And the way I was reading Juliet when she was with Ben, his manipulation of her actions didn't mean she was back on his side or necessarily going to do all of his bidding, even if it she might appear to be doing what he wanted. After all, she was alone now either way, and seems like she needed to join up with the group for herself. So when she said to Jack she was in it alone already, I think she could have meant from Ben, too. She's just trying to survive and find a way back, and this group wants to get back as bad as she does.
But I'm not addicted to this show or anything ...
Just having flare today
I had put posts on the fibro post and started water exercises but that for the day or the day after seems to exacerbate. I do have a pain management place I have been to before so am sure can get another appointment if need be. I am not returning to the rhematologist nor any other physicians for the time being. I, like you, am tired of paying and paying and nothing. I have hypothyroidism so will return to the endocrine and if and when I need some medical assistance, have a family practice but for the time being all others are out. So much time, so much money and nothing- still having the pain.
Yep, me too. Turned it on today just to see...
her "announcement" and I had to quickly change the channel again. She's the worst. I will be happy to give it a try again once she is OFF
You are right, too much work today
I am thinking social security and that kicks in for me at 67. I would love to stay on hubs insurance rather than receive Medicare at 65 but will check closer to then.
In Pittsburgh, gas is $2.85 as of today.
Tomorrow could be a different story.
AND I WHINED TODAY!
I live in Nevada and today it was $3.45 and more at most stations, but at Costco it was $3.29. You are not too far from me and it seems we have the highest gas prices. I drive an SUV too and it is very painful when the pump shuts off and I see the amount. Maybe I need a Volkswagon or something like when I was young! We need our SUV because we have a lot of people in our family. All the small cars or hybrid cars are too small for our family. I guess we could strap some kitchen chairs up on top and some of us could ride that way! I have no answer for this - maybe I'll invest in a few horses. Feed and vet bills are high too, but they are so pretty and I actually think I could save money! I have to fill the SUV up twice a week. That is about 150.00 x 4 weeks = $600.00. Like half a mortgage payment or about the same as my electric bill! Guess I'll have to type more!
