Not by choice earlier in life, but now no kids by choice
When I was young we desperately wanted kids. We tried for years. (I never took birth control ever, and we even took fertility drugs and planned for multiple kids, just never worked out). Then went through a period of years where husband didn't want them but I did, then years where husband wanted them but I didn't, then about 15 years ago we both decided we didn't want them. We didn't even know what we wanted in life for ourselves and we figured if we couldn't figure out what we wanted why in the world would we bring kids into the world. Now I'm thankful we never did have kids and hope that we never do (I'm 52 with only one ovary - had ectopic pregnancy a few years back), but chances are I do not think we will ever have kids. Now I just cannot tolerate the kids. The little ones are very cute and we love hearing them play in our neighborhood. Some of the things they say are the funniest, but once they get to a certain age it seems like something in them transforms. When they lose the innocence of youth and start becoming little bullies talking back to their parents with their snotty attitudes we just always say, if he was my kid he'd never see the light of day again. Nothing drives me more insane to see the way some of these kids talk to their parents.

But now a days with all the bad going on in the country (around the world) and the country heading for disaster, and if the Mayan calendar is correct and in 2012 we see some major earth changes and the possibilities of civilizations being wiped out, who would want to put their kids through that.

So, I just say - I'm free of kids and loving it!
I had a loop recorder inserted for 2 years and they didn't
a tilt table test.
You wanna really get creeped out?

Google "spank fetish" and watch the magic happen.  Know what the main theme is?  That's right, teachers punishing female students.  Many, MANY get their kicks this way and aren't afraid to share it.  This is not the same innocent era of bygone days when a spank meant something.  There are perves everywhere, even in places that should be safe havens...our schools, our churches, even our own families.  Sad state of affairs.


I wanna get me one o' them new-fangled,


I never ever wanna grow up
ll
Oh, I just wanna hug and kiss both of them! You
obviously enjoy, love and respect them. . . and they are dressed so beautifully!! 
mmmm.....i wanna eat it all
I am the human garbage disposer!!
I'd certainly wanna see the procedure note
They should have some documentation of what happened. If not, I'd REALLY wanna know exactly what was so minor they'd not document it, but left marks on your body!
Where? I wanna go pick 'em myself.
Ponchatoula?
You wanna mess your cat up for good?
Get a chicken...nay, a ROOSTER.  My old cat thought he saw an all-you-can-eat buffet when he first met "Steve," my Rhode Island Red.  He was stalking Steve from behind a bush (my chickens are free rangin'), started that low belly-creep towards his prey, and Steve saw him coming from the eyes that are in the back of his head.  That bird actually turned on my old cat and chased HIM away.  He's been reformed ever since and hardly goes outside anymore, even though Steve and his girls are long gone.  He's totally shell shocked, even though Steve never got near him.  Even the cute little chickadees in the window feeder make his hair stand on end now.
You got any extras you wanna pack up...

and send to Maine, you feel free!  


This is the first year I haven't had a garden and I'm totally bumming now that everyone's harvest is in.  My downfall are the little sweet cherry tomatoes that are all warm from basking in the sun all day and wicked sweet...I ate so many one year I swear I was pooping crushed tomatoes!  Totally gross but it was what it was.  Man, they really were just like candy!


Congratulations on your harvest! 


Wanna laugh? My husband who is a know-it-all always says to me, just ask me sm

I can tell you the answer.  So, while transcribing tonight I came across an ESL who mumbled,"Avapro ____ mg." So, I asked my know-it-all husband, "what doses does Avapro come in?"  And his reply was, "Avapro for humans?"  Trying to hold back my laugh, I said, "yeah, for humans."  And he said, "I think 10 and 30 mg," but it depends on how bad the patient's rash is!


Then I looked over at him and we both started laughing hysterically!! He always watches ER and will yell, "Give the patient 500 cc of LANACAINE STAT!"  Lanacaine like the itch cream on the commercials. He's probably thinking lidocaine or Xylocaine....haha


Ya wanna hear what I said the other night?
I told DH I was worth more dead than alive because I can't find a decent job and my life insurance policy is paid up. I don't feel so good today. Bad pains in both left and right upper quadrants.
I'm so clueless, I wanna play......how??? :( nm

I wanna watch the new Vin Diesel movie
hot!!
Say a tubal ligation got rid of your eczema, wanna know how I got rid of mine?
Had severe eczema on my hands, thought once would lose my fingernails. I got divorced, the eczema went away and never returned. True story.
yeah, yeah - Was/still am a Sam Cooke fan...

have a series of his albums (Sam's) and my older sister was into Jackie Wilson (he died very young)......never will be anything like Motown was..........*nods*......


 


DH's choice

This is the dog my DH says we can have!  He is 5 years old.  He has been a show dog, but he finds it too boring, so we get to adopt him .... if Sasha approves of him.  Do you think he's pretty?

I am told this is an excellent line for show Siberians.  You can tell who the champions are (to see their other dogs, click "Our Siberians" tab at the top) by the CH before their names. 


don't have a choice....
have to get the kids off to school, but most of the time still in my pjs
My choice . . .
Denzel Washington, Paul Newman, Robert Redford.
Again, you do not know whether they had a choice
or not.  This is simply your opinion that they did not have a choice.  Yes, teenage girls, or boys, for that matter, can be married with the consent of their parents.  Again, we do not know the facts in this case.  You have even gone as far as saying the men are "old and stinky."  How exactly do you know this?  You do not...  That is simply your opinion.  I have lived in St. George, Utah, which is very close to an area where these people live, and I have seen many young (20s-30s), what I would consider attractive men, married to these women.  It is best not to stereotype people, especially when all of the facts are not available.
It is not your choice...
As I stated above, it really is NOT your choice! She could REQUEST leave, or a reassignment, but nothing is saying that it will be approved! Especially in the Marines! There aren't always, "ways to get around that."
choice-
gay is a choice sort of like being male or female is a choice, sort of like having brown eyes is a choice, sort of like being tall is a choice. Whatever. One does not choose to be gay nor does one decide to be gay.
Of course I do! I'm an MT- I have no choice!
If I want new clothes, you can't beat Walmnart's prices, plus they usually have some of the cutest clothes.

The rest of the time, I go to Goodwill and Thrift Stores. Just found great new one in the East Bay Area (CA) called Thrift Town, and got a perfect-fitting pair of Levi's for $3.50, and two lightweight hoodie workout-type jackets for $1.00 each. Can't beat that!
yes to both..but by choice, not by force.sm
some docs get caught up on their dictations while on holiday. I am alone and have nothing better to do anyway, so why not make some extra cash. but that's just me. good luck in your search.
ok-it's about choice-don't be intimate....sm

don't forget in the USA (outside of Alaska) there are 10 women for each man.......40 years ago it was 8 men for each women but we know how those numbers changed.....15 minutes out of 24 hours or 2x's a week being intimate for an hour in a 168-hour week - is too much to ask for? *curious*



Sounds like they don't have a choice, it's where YOU want them to be.

Being overweight sure is a choice, just like sm
smoking cigarettes or doing drugs is a choice.  If you are making the right food choices, exercising, drinking water, or even following a Weight Watcher's plan, you will lose weight, unless you have a problem with one of your organs where you retain "water weight".  I, quite frankly, am tired of people sitting around asking "how do I lose weight" when they are not making good food choices and not staying active?  If you have trouble with arthritis, then you can do aqua therapy (get in a pool even if it is heated).  Anything that gets your heart rate up is exercise.  The "government" is not at the grocery store holding your hand or at that fast food restaurant making you buy those burgers.  I'm sorry, but that is JMO. 
That is a great choice.....by the way,
lots of people talking about her and I wondered if anyone else noticed her wrist is constantly bandaged or sometimes has loads of bracelets. I can make a good guess on that but will not state here. Just a thought.
We do have a choice. We can choose to keep our
undies on and not engage in sex or we can choose some form of birth control (albeit it fails from time to time).
That was her choice, not mine
it was her first marriage and she paid for it. I paid for the rehearsal dinner. She is the kind that does not want outside assistance, not from me and so I never BUTT in. It is probably nice for daughters who want their mother involved, mine happens to just want to be the 1 who does it by herself. Very independent and always like that. She never asked me to pay for anything - I volunteered for the dinner.
Unfortunate choice by...
...his parents for a name, but he was born before Pol Pot came to power, which isn't even a true name, but the shortened version of Politique Potentielle. Maybe the similarity in names was part of the blame for the bullying Paul Potts endured while growing up.

Nevertheless, I didn't even think of the mass murderer when hearing this man's name. Maybe because I read the name before hearing it.

I thought with all the discord on some of the other threads, the unhappiness with jobs, offshore issues, and not to mention the garbage we all hear on the news every day, that this man's story would be a welcome change. It isn't often we hear of the good stuff that happens or the inspirational moments in people's lives. I wish I had left out his name in the original title of the thread!

It's not a choice, It's a child. NM

Your drink of choice?

Tonight I will be having club soda, cranberry juice and vodka with a twist of lime. Maybe two.....


I have a liquor cabinet filled, so what can I get ya?


hard choice
The choice to rent or buy is tough.  I was a single mom up until a year ago.  I had bought a home; however, I think I would have been better renting.  When you buy, there is a lot to take care of on your own.  It's hard with the unexpected things that come up.  Then again, if you rent, a landlord could be tougher for a woman to deal with to get them to take care of things.  In this economy, buying is scary, too.
I think it is her body, her choice, and
her business. In the same category with men donating sperm or couples going to a fertility clinic.

first trimester that is.
Childfree by choice?

Just wondering how many of you out there have made the decision to NEVER have kids. I'm 25, and have known for a long time that I never wanted kids. As time goes on, and I meet new co-workers with kids (and hear how unhappy a lot of them seem to be deep down), I feel even more relieved that I'm never having any.


One big reason why I know having kids isn't for me is because I have Asperger's Syndrome. Not only is it hard enough to just get through day to day life and take care of myself, but I simply wouldn't be able to handle the stress of parenting- I know my limits. Also, according to my Dr. (who is one of the most familiar with Asperger's in Baltimore), there would be a high likelihood of my child having a disorder somewhere along the autism spectrum. I know I couldn't handle a well-bahaved child (I just don't like being around kids in general), let alone raise a child with special needs.


Given that I have AS, I'm thankful that I have well above-average intelligence to at least partly compensate for other eccentricities. And I'm also fortunate enough to have a good, well paying, stable gov't job, where even if I'm not Mr. Popularity, I am still known to do a really good job (and on the bright side, even if I pi*s people off-which I have, it's not like they can fire me). So...since day to day living and working is hard enough for me, I want to have some time to have fun, and if I had kids I simply wouldn't have the capacity to raise them properly and have time to do things that are important to me.


The colors would not be my first choice, but...
I would move into it in a hot New York minute. It beats the baby-puke green house at the end of my cul-de-sac. I think it looks kind of funky and here where I live funky is a good thing. Of course it depends on what part of town you live in too. LOL.
No, unless of course the foster kids of choice
include the more difficult ones because a lot more money is paid monthly for them. I knew of a couple who took in only the more difficult kids, a bunch at a time and made a killing off these kids, now well off and retired and enjoying live and want nothing to do with any of them. Never did really. Sad.
If you have no choice to open up the door - sm
just say that now is not a good time for a visit and to call before coming next time (because you work from home and cannot just drop everything when someone pops by)(add that on if you chose to). They may not like hearing any of it but tough cookies. If you are out of sight, just don't answer the door, if it happens often enough maybe they will think to call first next time and you can again say no, or to nip the visits in the bud say you are quiting that church and to please stop calling you. I am in the boonies and get the occasional church groupie visits of various faiths, I just tell them "not interested" and they go on their merry way without a fight for the most part. Good luck.
I'm valentine-free by CHOICE! That's because it .....

Your choice is to walk through the smoke.

People are made to smoke outside the store, can't smoke inside.  Smoking is not against the law.  I think people with body odor/bad breath smell way worse than people smoking. 


don't have a *choice* to walk through smoke--sm
if you want to get out of or into the store. If someone HAS to smoke...go to your own car where it does not infringe upon someone else's right to not have to breathe it in and contract lung cancer. Body odor and bad breath do not inflict death and are easily taken care of with personal hygiene. Second hand smoke is just plain inconsiderate of others' health, but then why would you care about that. right?
I am talking single mom by choice, not by
a death. I have been widowed before and still had a child at home and the insurance money then was split half for a burial and I gave my child the other $10,000. I do not believe in pity-parties as I see a lot on MTS. I am just glad I waited until later when having my children. I think the ultrasound is a way to make a women thing more about what should be her decision alone but would not have changed my mind then or now.
