Chiropractors are great. As long as they know what they're doing. I've never visited one who didn't know what he was doing. They're miracle workers. Unfortunately the miracle only lasts for a couple days, then it's back to the same cricks and aches. That's how they get repeat customers. But I think you'll enjoy the results. Best wishes!

Gosh JU is so much better than my real world. Thanks for sharing this Tova. You mentioned somewhere that you used to sing with a performing group...and that nowadays you belt out songs in your wonderfully acoustic shower. I'm so glad we finally got to hear you! And your little boy....PRECIOUS!

fs, udigit, Yeah I SHOULD have waken him up. Buuuut...I fear the wrath of my brother. I really do. So I shoveled. Twice! Yep, by 9am it was covered in snow again, almost as if I hadn't shoveled three hours earlier. Sheesh. I love snow days!! Funny, I USED to love snow days when they

HA! Have you tried sucking on it until it's mush? Then chew up whatever's left. In 1978 I choked and nearly died on a morsel of Cap'n Crunch. My big brother gave me the Heimlich maneuver. He was only 5 years old! Smart kid. Thanks to him I'm here to join in your conversation today.

LH: I think I am going to look at my own brother's actions a little closer. Well after reading what little whip said, it seems you're probably treating your brother the right way by letting him live his life the way he chooses. (You gave me a brief rundown of your family members once, I remember him.) Little Whip you hit the nail on the head. How closely you related to what I'm going through, having had

I would be my brother's keeper... The deal was he'd come up to North Dakota to help me with the kids and my sanity while hubby is gone for awhile...in exchange he'd have a place to stay, rent-free, a car to drive to work where he'll earn money to get back on his feet. He's currently down-and-out, you see. But he's not spending his time wis

I booted my brother off the computer at 11:30 pm because he was about to pull another all-nighter. After hiding in his bedroom all day. He does that. As soon as he senses that the kids & me have gone to bed (8 pm!!) he tiptoes out of his room and takes over the house. Putz. Well here I am online in the middle of the night after I told him nightt

I read this a few days ago and I was thinking about it tonight. Needless to say, that was a seriously amazing dream from an extraordinary person. The element that stayed in my mind most was the locusts. (Probably because you included a graphic photo. Heh. I respond best to visuals.) my throat started hurting

I'm surprised that the hospitals even agreed to give you his medical records unless you have power of attorney. Well I curtailed that part of the saga. They said they would mail a release form to my brother for him to fill out, sign, return to them, then they'd send him the records. <TABLE cell

My brother has an immune deficiency. He needs a gamma globulin infusion every month. Each infusion costs $5000. He's also got ADD. I hear he was a hellyun of a child, and I also have some memories of his crazy childhood behavior. Medications for ADD and ADHD have been publicized a lot in recent years. Apparently those diseases (?) are common eno

Listening to my brother cough all night, all day, his nose running, always getting up during meals, even at restaurants to wipe his nose -- it's something I grew up with. These are not comforting memories of my brother, they're annoyances that I just have to push into the background. He was born with an immune deficiency. He spent most of his childhood undi

At least you recognize your bias for what it is. I'll nominate your family for the show. You guys deserve it. Plus, you love home renovations, it's right up your alley.

I wish Angela and I still lived in the buildings beside each other. I really regret being such a wuss about just going over to her place and hanging out. I wish we would have gotten together more. I think we were a really good match as friends and it took me quite a while to see that. I remember we would go over to each others ho

Happy Happy Day! I've been away from JU...but wasn't YOUR birthday ever mentioned?! ALSO A HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO LIFE HAPPENS!!!!! It was January 15th, right? That's what my birthday alarm dot com told me. But I'm so mentally and physically disorganized that I missed it anyway!!!! Arggggh.

I dunno why the title "Boring Article" attracted my attention above all the others, but it did. But all that traveling doesn't sound boring at all. Whenever I go on long road trips, I love it so much. I think a lot about those truck drivers out there, and I think it would be a blast to be out on the road like that. But it's dangerous, I know. It sure looks fun from a distance though.

Hi Tex! Just signing in to say "Hi, Fun Gal!" Based on a few of your favorite things, it's clear to see you're still in touch with your sensual side as ever. Since marriage, my libido only seems to exist during pregnancy. What's the biological point of that??!! (Rhetorical question, but I really do wonder.) Our Baby April is starting to fit into the outfits you sent. I just can't get over how sweet that was of you to send us things in the midst of your own pregnancy(!

My brother is staying with the kids & me for a few months while my husband is away at school. Since he's here to help me juggle two very tiny, needy children and help me keep my sanity, we often get into brief discussions about childrearing. Today I mentioned to him something that caught my attention recently on TV, on a Dateline sort of show. I wish I could cite the source, but from my memory here are two powerful statements that were made: 1) By and large, the current generation of ki
