    Type 1 requires insulin, type 2 does not - sm
    that is the basic difference. Type 2 can be controlled by diet changes and/or medication (pills). My MIL has type 2 which runs in her family, no one is obese either. She controls it with diet and medication. Your dermatologist I think is wrong. Doesn't your husband know which type he has?
    you were smart to do that.
    I am so glad I posted. Even though I declined on that rat hole, I need all this for future referance.

    Thanks. You guys are great.
    You are smart
    Although so many posters are telling this is normal, I was disturbed by your original post because you seemed alarmed at his tone of voice. Of course kids say hateful things to each other all the time, but the fact that a 10yo would say this to his mother, not in the heat of anger directed his sister, tolls the alarm bell.

    It is normal for siblings to fight, but there is also plenty of abuse within families which would never be tolerated if a stranger were to do. I've seen people whose children have thrown scissors, at each, stuck forks in a sibling's tongue, broken bones on purpose, and they parents have actually tolerated this.

    You sound a great mom. You recognize his perfectionism which he needs to learn to recognize and deal with as soon as possible. The very best to you and your family.
    My kids are smart. sm
    Haysees I have always liked reading your posts, but don't critisize my children that you know nothing about. My husband and I are very active in our children's lives and that is how I know they have some pretty wonderful teachers.
    What smart oddballs you have.
    They sound really fun. I might still have a cat if she'd have used the toilet ... instead of my bed!

    Grr.

    She is one smart cookie
    You can't fool her! I'm glad she's eating. That is always a good sign. Hope you both have a good day.
    I wasn't trying to be smart, I was
    actually confused.
    Smart girl
    You are right on track. Right now don't worry about divorce or not. Take advantage of NOW while you can and get to school. Medical transcription has no where to go now. There is no bright future for it where you can "advance your career." I too am in a marriage I would leave if I could, but I want to be smart about it and get that education first.
    smart comments
    Me, too. Makes me want to jump in and blast them back! No reason for it.
    Smart mouths
    Chances are the parents have smart mouths as well, or they have no backbones.

    I would have sent the kid home last night when he condescended to you at the end of the first argument. If he is almost 11 and hasn't learned to respect other people's rules, he probably will never learn this lesson. Attitudes are pretty well set by that age and if he gets away with that kind of behavior at home, he's going to have a tough row to hoe in the real world.

    Congrats to you! I would not have that kid in my house again if I were you and I would your son and that boy know the reason why.
    I think he is smart by admitting it now.

    Some women are too smart
    They're brainwashed, and may never wise up.  Nowhere in the Bible does it condone this type of lifestyle.  Some lecherous man declared himself a prophet and wrote his own book - and that's what they base their religion on, not the Bible.
    I said she was smart, but after her interviews
    thought everyone would know the truth. That statement of her being smart on my end was said tongue in cheek.
    you are one smart lady and sm
    willbe rewarded. Now you can use that money for the decorating and yes that is the fun part!
    That was a smart call. NM

    Sounds like a smart decision.
    I'd so the same if I were you. I will pray for optimal outcome for you.

    Regarding hormones, remember that the recommendation is now now against hormones after some huge studies. Use has decreased a lot, and for the second year in a row, cancer rates have dropped substantially. But I don't know anything about risks of short-term use, and maybe that's what you are considering.
    Very smart. We should all follow, but for some reason, it's almost sm
    entertainment for some. Isn't that sad?? We find "entertainment" in someone else's grief and sorrow. What else do you call it? I hardly ever watch t.v. In fact, I didn't find out about the shootings until 3:30 when I read that 30+ people were dead! I was shocked!

    The media wouldn't give it to us if we didn't show intense interest in it. It seems the more drama it is, the higher the ratings. So, so sad.

    Like I said, I read about the accounts on-line at People.com where they never have any news on there - just celebrity gossip. I know, it's not much better, but it's hardly ever death, shootings, earthquakes, terrorism, kidnapping, and the like. I can't handle that kind of stuff.

    Smart mouthed kids (sm)
    Son has a friend who slept over last night (they are both almost 11)....he keeps arguing with me.  I consider myself a very lenient parent, but my kids know not to speak disrespectfully to me and they know our household rules and generally go by them.  Last night he was trying to explain his point of view to me and then said, "you follow me?  Didn't think so..." and turned his head as if to say he was finished....I informed him that I was the adult here and he was not to speak to me that way.  This morning he again was arguing with me about one of my rules about an XBox game. I said, "that is the rule, I am not going to argue with you about it." And he said, "Don't then." This time I very firmly said, "You do not speak to me that way or I will be calling your parents."  He said, "sorry" and has not done it since.  But who are the parents who let their children talk to them this way?  I work hard to give my children a good life - I put thought and effort into their daily schedules and having friends over, etc.  I will not be talked to like that. You shouldn't either!
    I would have sent his smart mouth home
    when he did it again after the first warning.

    I have four kids in my house that I have to deal with every day. If one of them even thought they could get away with that because their friend did..... I would be in BIG trouble!

    Maybe a little chat with his parents is in order. Just let them know that you will not tolerate backtalk from your kids and certainly not from their friends. So if it happens again, you will be bringing him home immediately, day or night.

    If you have to do that once, it will definitely get the message across to the smart mouth and I bet he would be very careful not to do it again.
    Sorry, I thought MTs were smart enough to figure it

    thanks for the advise, you say some very smart things - sm
    though I am really not sure about the in person thing. I am serious about trying not to be killed in this, he has threatened to kill me before over some really stupid stuff (and we have a lot of guns in this house), and as this is a major thing, and he has been through this with me before....just before we married I was $12K in the hole. I paid it all off though within weeks of the wedding and we were debt-free for about 7 years (except for mortgage). He has told me before if he ever kills me, he will kill himself too....not that this is any solace to me as I really want to live. Generally he is full of hot air, but you never know what will send a person over the edge and I think this debt may be what does it for him. There are a number of extenuating circumstances that caused the debt, it was not me alone of course. He likes to spend as he pleases and I do try to stop him as much as I can but sometimes it is not possible (unless I drop the bomb of course), family illnesses, we did private school for a while too which did not help, and just got a new used car....which we owe his parent $10K for which I am paying them $500 a month for as well which is really putting a crimp on things...but he insisted we had to get rid of my reliable truck for better gas mileage....the new car has needed $800 in repairs so far in 4 months which is just wonderful. When I do drop the bomb, probably in the next month or so, I may try to farm the kids out to friends houses then give him a letter with all the dirty details and the possible solutions. I think having it all down in writing will help some. I know there will be tears on both sides, and my stress level will plummet once it is off my chest. I notice my skin problems act up when we are short on cash, then clear when we get a paycheck. I am sure my BP is jumping about and I cannot lose weight no matter how hard I try too, though I think that is a mechanism to keep him away from me as much as possible. Needless to say it is a total mess.
    Teenagers - so smart, yet so dumb
    A Middletown teenager is expected to be in court this week for allegedly ordering more than $37,000 of candy online to be charged to Middletown High School.

    Jad Holmes, 18, is scheduled to be in Middletown Municipal Court on Wednesday, Feb. 11, for two counts of telecommunications fraud, both fifth-degree felonies, according to court records.

    Holmes is accused of placing two orders — for $19,880 and $17,372, respectively — through a Michigan-based company, according to police records.

    The order was to be shipped to his address and billed to Middletown High School, records show.

    After taking possession of one order, he was arrested by Middletown police, according to records.

    Holmes also is charged with two counts of theft of drugs, both fourth-degree felonies, according to court records.

    He's being held in Middletown City Jail on a bond of $30,700, according to jail records.

    It's a smart thing to be prepared
    Pantry is semi full. Could be better stocked, but we've got enough to keep us fed if something happened and we couldn't get to store for a awhile. We've been reading many sites that say people need to be more ready than they are. You never know when an emergency could happen and growing up in an area where we would snow storms lasting for days we were always prepared. Even today you never know when your going to get stuck.

    Seeds are very important. If you don't plan and a crisis happens you cannot wait until then as that is what everyone else will be doing. I've read you should have at least 5 or more years of seeds on hand.

    I am most definitely ready for a life without credit cards, shopping, etc. I can't even tell you the last time I went to a mall or shopping (except maybe some socks last year). I've got everything I need (clothes and stuff) and with the times the way they are I absolutely hate spending money on anything unless absolutely needed.

    Spam - grew up on the stuff and loved it. Now I know what its made of and I would never eat it unless it was desperate times. My dad told me that in other countries it's a delicacy. I said to him yea, right up there with Moxie.
    Not unusual at all - my DH had one growing up and still talks about how smart it was! (nm)

    smart cookie on the waiting....and remember some

    some states honor common-law marriages - living together as a couple for 7+ years - and there are laws protecting the spousal unit in those cases...don't know what state you are in....but think about that....*S*


    When in doubt, do nothing :)


     


    Smart how? This was Oct of last year. I highly doubt SIL sm

    I understand the whole quarantine thing, but this is taking it too far. I'm sure this guy has had tons of clients. It just does not sound prudent to have to quarantine each and every client. Sounds absurd.
    Yes well at least he's smart enough to do what he's doing behind closed doors. He's no priz

    You'd be smart not to bother getting newborn size.
    The baby would be out of them in about 2 weeks from what I remember, so much better to get the next size up.
    This is the smart way to save - it is called "paying yourself first" and sm
    is endorsed by Suzy Orman, Dave Ramsey and other financial planners. If you save it b/f you see it, you're much more likely to leave it alone.

    Personally I've been debt-free (including my home) for 7 years and have never felt better. I don't understand people who have the urge to buy things they do not need (like the poster who said they had jackets coming from QVC today - why?).

    It's 3 a.m. to type or not to type

    Need some ideas about insomnia.  Don't want to take those sleeping pills. I used to begin work at 3 a.m. and worked split.  But, recently changed to day because I found if I got a good night's sleep my line count and disposition was better.  Lucky to get day because it takes a lot of years usually to get it.  But, now I find myself up at 3 anyway and for the last 2 hours have been surfing the net, mostly here and e bay.  I know that if I typed some now I would be no good during the day and not get my usually good line count during the day that I usually get.  BTW: Today is my day off, but I still plan to work and obviously hyper because I can't sleep now.  Any suggestions on how to get off this overnight shift pattern? Been doing this insomnia overnight thing for about 2 years, and I like the quiet (3 kids and a husband) in the middle of the night, but worn out.


    Please suggestions for an insomnia. And forget the warm milk, please YUK LOL. Thanks for your help. Maybe with your suggestions in a week or so I can get off this 3 a.m. pattern. TIA.


     


    If you don't type why are you here?
    Just leave!!!!!!
    anybody out there ever type

    What are the rules you apply to yourself for taking sedatives and drinking while at work?  Does happy hour ever start early? 


    Wow, when I type
    for a typing test (trying to get a job), I get so nervous I can barely type and practically pass out. Any tips on how NOT to do that.

    I could never type 104 wpm anyway, but I type much worse when trying for a job. Gulp!
    Well who is going to type MJ and FF?
    That hospital was one of ours, so I told my DH that the docs will type it themselves as to not to get a leak out to the press.  Sad times, sad times.  I am in the Midwest now, not to worry about celebs.  Pretty interesting day it was in the land of transcription.  JMO. 
    Ever have a day when you just cannot type
    I had one of those days yesterday where I typed dyslexic all day and it's spilling over into today.  Man, this sucks.  Normally I never have more than one uncoordinated day every few months.  Argh.  It's frustrating!
