Can't you just spring for the cab, to be with your dad on TG? I think I would SM

do that, and maybe they'd have enough shame to give you a lift back to the station to go home.


I wouldn't let anybody keep me from being with my dad  on TGD. Are you sure -- and I'm not trying to inflame you -- that you aren't maybe a little jealous of your steps? Just suck it up and go, don't be a martyr.


I love spring. It's been too hot lately to do anything around here.

I like it about 75 degrees with maybe a slight breeze.  Plus, spring is when the lilacs bloom, all the critters have babies, and the garden starts to grow.  The mosquitoes are out now in the early morning and evening, and it's 98 degrees or more during the day.  It's better than winter, though.  Fall is OK, but it makes me sad because everything is dying and winter's coming.


Spring Forward,

Don't know about elsewhere in the US, but here in the east tonight is the night we turn our clocks ahead one hour. 


I had some pretty serious medical problems a year ago and was completely out of it from the middle of March to the middle of April so I have no recollection of time during that period.  Does anyone recall the exact date that we "sprang" forward last year?


 


Ack, Sprint that is, NOT Spring...nm

Check the spring - you may need a new one

Spring break
I guess I am paranoid, but am afraid to let my 6-year-old granddaughter go out and play unless I am with her or her parents. It is a rotten shame our world has become so unsafe for children. Sounds like you have a good support team for your 5-year-old.
Yep, slow because of spring break.
About half of our clinic's doctors took off the last 2 weeks. It has been extremely slow. I only made half of what I normally do this month. :-( But things are starting to pick up again, so I just plan to work some extra hours next month to help make up for it.
Luckily for me with Spring Break
I have a 15 year old at home who watches her 5 year-old sister. Plus I also took a few days off so we can do things together. Also, there are a lot of kids outside in the neighborhood so they just all go out and play together. I know it would be hard if I didn't have all these things to keep her busy. It's too late now, but in our school district they have all sorts of programs half day and full day to keep the kids busy while their parents work. Maybe next year you could look into that. How about other kids in the neighborhood or maybe a teenager to look out for your son while you work?
MS Natural Keyboard help! spring needed!

I have a MS Natural multimedia keyboard that I used for about a month before I lost one of the springs that goes underneath the space bar. I tried other keyboards, even springs from pens, but nothing works. Does anyone have ideas on what to try or have a nonworking one that they can sell me the spring out of?


 


Thanks!


I got a replacement spring at my hardware store .... sm
take your remaining spring as a sample for the gauge ... i had to buy one a foot long, irrc, and cut it with scissors but I think it cost under $2. you might call around to save time ... I used an "old time" amazing local hardware store but I suspect my local Ace hardware would have something too .. (but doubt home depot or Lowes would) ...

There are several reasons I have half a dozen "dead" keyboards in my shed ... and this is one ... I think later models weren't made with this "feature" (the spring under tension poppping out and impossible to find feature, that is) ;-)
It just tastes like the Poland Spring water sm
that I drink all day.  That is why I never bought the fruit water, I don't like sweet drinks.  This is perfect for me.
I'm not spring chicken! LOL I turned 40 today!
Im far from young or immature---I worked in public health for the government for many years, had my children in my mid to late thirties and left the workforce. I still needed income, so that's why I pursued a work at home job, so I could be with my children. I guess I am "immature" or not used to being treated poorly by employers. I've noticed with MT is that if you complain about ANYTHING, you should be thankful that you are working at home! Just because we work at home does not mean we have to accept anything. Again, my employer said one thing in the interview and completely changed the plan once I was released to work from home. This profession needs a union, big time or some type of advocates (please don't meantion AAMT, because they could care less). I have a right to be disappointed that I was basically lied to. If I had known they were going to make me work a set shift when I got in the home, I probably would have turned the job down. Now I have to make the best of if until I can find another professional job and find a good preschool for my toddlers.
My nephew got a girl pregnant at Spring Break.
He was in college.  The girl pretty much partied with every guy there, but tracked them down.  DNA proved paternity.  Now he pays child support to a girl who was a one night stand.  As bad as that is, things could have been worse.  I am just glad my DD never wanted to go.

We're getting there!
Parents of College Students..Any of your kids going on Spring Break?
Ugh!  I have a son going with a group of friends to Mexico for thier first "spring break."  They are all good kids, but I've seen the late-night Girls Gone Wild videos... They better be good. 
too true. Spring break is somekind of commercial myth anyway,
