We wound up missing the big Christmas Day family feast because one of our kids woke up from a nap with a 102.4 degree temperature. It hit 104.9 in the middle of the night last night. Of course, the clinic is closed today so I'll have to take him to the ER if things don't get better soon. Poor little sprite.

Yay! Good for you and Merry Christmas.
Does anyone have any good craft ideas for 5th graders to do during Christmas party? sm
I am usually in charge of my younger kids' classroom parties, but this year I am doing the 5th graders. I need a good craft for them to do during their party. Something easy and fun....but you know...not too baby-ish. Any help is appreciated!!! 
Merry Christmas! There is a story named Cat and Mouse Christmas...search Google and you'll find

A Christmas Story is my fave Christmas movie...forgot that one!

Good to know. Thanks. I hope he has someone at home sm
who can do that for him. He'll just have to keep growing! Thank goodness no one has thought 20" is too small!
Good, I hope it works... nm
Good grief. I hope you are kidding, please. nm

Hope you get good news from the biopsy, sm
My husband just had a similar situation, only his was a growth on the side of his nose. Doctors thought it was a cyst or a mite that got stuck in there. After sending it off to 3 labs, it was diagnosed as Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. They may have gotten the whole thing during the surgery, but husband still has to undergo 20 days of radiation therapy to the site. His prognosis is excellent. He was very scared during the waiting period and once he received the diagnosis, however he has adjusted to getting the radiation and has settled down.
You can be his support. When my husband had all kinds of negative things running through his mind, I kept encouraging him that it may not be as serious as he is imagining. I also have a brother that had Non-Hodgkins lymphoma and he talked to my husband about his treatment, which helped my husband a lot, as well.
Good luck, I'll keep your family in my prayers.
Wooohooo!! Good for you!! Hope you stay there!
Nope, didn't write the letter!
Now if we can just keep the termites like yourself away, we'll do just fine thank ya!
Good luck..hope you have a better experience..
than I did with them
Good luck. I hope it works for you!
I always used to wonder why so many people on ebay started listing from smoke-free home. Then I bought an antique book,and boy did I understand! Now you will definitely be asking the smoke free home question right away for anything on Ebay, right? Yuck. Again, I used to smoke for decades and had no idea how awful it smells.Smokers don't really smell it themselves! Have fun, too!!
Hope you're good with accents! sm
All customer service is outside of the US and I had a really tough time communicating with them. Also if you choose to discontinue early there's a whopping $90 fee that's buried in the fine print.
I used Vonage with broadband satellite for 2 months and it disconnected frequently on me....my satellite has been stable for years with multiple platforms so I suspect Vonage is just not suited for satellite. Just a heads up!
Good to hear it. Hope you find it useful. NM

Good grief, hope it doesn't have too many changes sm
If so, we should get our money back on the 2nd, geez! Enough is enough.Some of the 2nd is wrong anyway, leave us alone!
I hope I can be that good and exp. one day that a company trusts me enough to say hey you don't n

Good for you but I hope you get off your high horse
i agree with your post -- however, you just don't seem to get it -- CIRCUMSTANCES happen -- my s/o and I had something happen last month to where he had to renew a license for his work -- had it renewed and on PAPER, however, his company said they wanted the "hard plastic copy" he has to carry a gun to work and the state and federal government took their sweet time -- he got laid off, applied for unemployment, got a couple of checks for a WHOPPING $275 a week!!! -- Finally, last week got a call from his employer "even though you legally can't carry a gun right now, we have a position" -- this week the PROPER paperwork came in, he got rehired, but LOST ALL his senority. I hope you are wonderful and yes, we DO live within our means, we use ATM cards etc and I balance my checkbook but who the heck are YOU to judge!!!!
Skip Christmas Day and do drinks/snacks Christmas
Eve and spend a peaceful Christmas doing whatever it is you want to do. If you're all of 47 years old you're evidently a slow learner : )
Anytime! Hope it gets worked out. Good luck! nm
good on ya. Hope all goes well and you do not have to figure out what India is telling you.
I have a Dell, but everytime I have to talk to India, they always make the problem worse, and I have had to pay 50 bucks for them not to be able to fix it.
Good luck, I hope you get a nice raise! nm

It just seems like something always happens right before Christmas.
We both just had job changes due through no fault of our own. We basically had a month of no income there. Oh, but everyone has to have the annual Christmas drawing. Can't let us off the hook even if I have to hock my wedding band. OK, so I'm in a pity party mood today.
Christmas
I was just telling my kids the other day how I miss saying Merry Christmas this time of year and really do not like Happy Holidays! So I have started saying it again. I have no problem with other celebrations this time of year so why do we Christians have to change because of it. Being politically correct is not always best for what is in your heart. So, on that note Merry Christmas to everyone!
Christmas
Thanks, Sheri, for your uplifting message. It is, after all, CHRISTmas--not Happy Holidays like so many merchants around here are saying. It seems that they are benefiting from all the customers purchasing CHRISTmas gifts, don't you think?
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to All!
Christmas sm
This profession has taught me to celebrate life, no matter what. I am tolerant of all views. I happen to celebrate Christmas and I think we should all join together. Is everyone Irish on St. Patrick's Day? Come on, lighten up and enjoy, enjoy, celebrate life.
Thanks! Now I know what to get Mom for Christmas!

Add yours: All I want for Christmas is
A kitchen where I can walk in every day and not have to battle stinking solider ants invading from the southern wall of dirt my home is built into.
For Christmas....
we received a cute Christmas poem thanking us along with a book with a CD of the song "Live Like You Were Dying." A great recognition from a great company!
Christmas help
Rad guy,
First I think all families are a bit dysfunctional. I say this from experience, I could tell you stories that would make your family probably seem normal. As a born again Christian for 30 some years now, I would have to argue with your nephew. It sounds like he may belong to a way out church or cult. Being married or single does not get you to heaven according to my Bible (King James Version). John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
I believe is this, God made the way very simple, it is people who add things and try to make it complicated.
You might ask him if he thinks the apostle Paul made it to heaven? He was not married and actually he thought it better for a church worker not to be married because they could dedicate themselves to God.
One more verse for you to use would be the following.
1 Peter 3:15
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
Some Christian forget that people find God through love, not being beat over the head. It doesn't sound like your nephew is being meek, but a Bully. This is not God's way. God is a gentleman, who knock on the door of peoples hearts and waits for them to answer. He does not break down the door. He created us with free will, he is not going to force himself on us.
Good Luck.
Sandy
had it since before Christmas
I'm about 95% well now but I came down with it about a week before Christmas. Never felt so bad for so long in all my life. Of course, I tried so many OTC meds, but I did find some temporary relife by boiling a pot of water and holding me head over it and just trying to breathe. You can add a bit of vinegar too although I was so sore already from coughing and sneezing that it seemed a bit much. You can also put a towel over your head as you do this to keep the steam in. Short-term relief but at times I was desparate for anything. I also found that I seemed to finally start turning the corner when I drank lots and lots of orange juice. You have my sympathy--it is awful.
Christmas is the same way. A lot of the ESL
dictators do not celebrate Christmas so they volunteer to work so that those who do celebrate can be with their families.
Thanks! I do most of my Christmas shopping
Love the fact that I can work and shop at the same time! And it's all delivered to me!
How much does everyone spend on Christmas? sm
Just for presents, not for other things like decorations and food and stuff.
We are a family of 4, kids age 2 and 5. We also buy for my family (mom, dad, 3 sisters, brother) and his family kids (6 of them) and then we do 2 $25 gifts to exchange in a game. Just wondering what everyone's budget looks like and what everyone spends. We will probably spend about $1200 this year. Is this outrageous? It seems like a lot, but yes, our kids are spoiled
THe best Christmas lights ever...lol
Someone just sent me this web page and my kids loved it. Has music attached to the web page too.

We always get something for Christmas and MT Week sm
Last year we got a card and a Blockbuster gift card for two movies, popcorn and pop. I loved it! It felt like a relaxing evening on Keystrokes. We usually get them real close to Christmas so I am not expecting anything for a few weeks :)
Christmas bonus
I have five accounts and usually get an average of a month's pay. anywhere from 1700 to 200 per account.
Do they give them MTs anything for Christmas?
Just wondering if anyone knew
Christmas bonus
Last year I got a $50.00 Walmart gift card from my company. Nice gift. This year I received a $25.00 gift card from Walmart. My company merged with another company, there are taking on new accounts right and left, I worked every single holiday, many many weekeds and when ever they would asked for help, and my bonus is half of last years. This is really sad and hurtful to say the least.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you Sherri and thanks for sticking to your beliefs. Although I am Jewish, my children have always known both Christmas and Hanukah and are the bettter for it. Christmas is infectious and it is one disease I am grateful to have been infected with. Although we understand and worship both (hubby is Christian), we also honor and respect the right of all to believe and celebrate as they feel. Politics has no place interfering with the feeling of caring and generosity that people show more prevalently during this time of year. Christmas spirit has nothing to do with religion -- it has to do with spirituality. If the truth be known, I feel that the spirit of caring and giving is shown year-round in many ways to many people, and I don't hear people complaining. It takes many good people in this world to help those less fortunate.
Merry Christmas
Thank you Sheri and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to all of you!
Thanks Sheri for the post!
How many of you (Christmas question)
Decorate more than 1 Christmas tree around your house. My cousin has 7. I'm right now at 4 just cuz I like to do different things and I still have 1 that I'm deciding on for the basement. I have a small fiber optic that has nativity ornaments, a 4-foot fiber optic that is an angel tree, a green (just lights) tree, and my regular 6 foot all the good old hand made and little kids ornaments. So I'm wondering are we the only crazy ones or do other people have more than 1.
A joyous Christmas season to you all.
Christmas gifts
I don't know your sisters, but if they are practical like I am, they might enjoy receiving a flowering plant (something to enjoy for months/years to come).
Also, with the price of gas as high as it is, a "gas card" would be nice. Or maybe a phone card for cell phone 'minutes'. How about a maid for a day? (I would love for someone to clean my windows for me.) Well now that you know what I want for Christmas, I will just sit back and wait . . . ;)
