[quote]We never bought a snow blower ever until our three snowblowers (Bobby, Brian and David) moved out of the house. [/quote] That's what my Aunt Shelby said about a dishwasher until I moved out... [quote]but I do have to say that looked like wimpy snow compared to what we used to get in Maine[/quote] I think it was about 5 inches, maybe six. But that's a lot of snow for a 49 pound little bo

[quote]Hope he got at least $5 for that hard work.[/quote] He earned $10 because the drive was cleaner than when I shovel it! He does it now every time it snows. Pretty awesome little man.

[quote] Egypt does not have a high probability (that ok?) of coming out of this turmoil with anything that we would call a Democracy … but that does not mean that this could not be another step on their march for their own freedom …[/quote] I agree.

Forgiveness is a good place to start. I don't have a relationship with my mother either. At some point in life you have to get over it. Accepting someone for who they are, truly accepting it, means laying down the angst of their decisions, their character, living your life, and walking away from the drama.

Good luck. Anger is one of those things that eats you from the inside out, and when it's ruined your life, starts eating those around you. It's also difficult to re-train yourself to deal with the world without anger as your go to emotion. But, with perseverance you can do it. <span style="font-size: small;"

[quote]As for the warships, anyone can pass through the canal.[/quote] Iranian officials have announced plans to deploy warships to areas near Israel and to dock at a Syrian port for a year. Such a move would be a "serious provocation," a senior official said. There is no justification for Iran to deploy its battleships to the Mediterranean Sea.~ taken from 1st article linked above It appears provoc

There is something about people married in October. We married on October 16th. But unlike you, could not have married after the first date. We were best friends first (tho my husband rolls his eyes and says "we were never friends." Like he had this all planned out or something. [e digicons]o_O[/e] ) Call it what he wants, we wer

[quote]The point here is simply that you can believe me or not but I think I am much better informed than the media.[/quote] Leuaki- I love your insights and logic. I don't think you're infallible, but I always learn something from your posts. Usually a lot of somethings. I'm fairly ignorant of Egyptian politics. So, in your opinion, what would be best case scenario for Egypt? And ho

[quote]Besides, we didn't win our freedom by fighting alone[/quote] Granted the French had a dog in the fight secretly at first...but they also had a whole agenda of their own which came out later in direct declarations of war with England. We were their excuse. But you are right, they're beef with England helped us. This is an important distinction imo and what makes the two situations vastly d

[quote]Egyptians are on massive strikes. Egypt needs economic aid and lots of it. This is the moment for the US to shine![/quote] I don't think we need to give Egypt anything right now Leuaki. We're flat broke. Besides, they'll appreciate Democracy more if they get it all on their own. Then no one can say it was handed to them, or paid for by us or anyone else. <span style="font-s

[quote]There's the rub. Only 1 in 5. [/quote] When I read the research (ZOO11) it said this as well. What you have to keep in mind though is, this is for women who have it in their sentinels...lots of women don't have it in the lymphs at all (and until now, some STILL got the axilla taken.) Anecdotally, every single woman with Stage 1 BC or higher in my clinic had her sentinels (SN) AND ax

[quote]“The dogma is strong,” he said. “It’s a little frustrating.”[/quote] He ain't kidding. I had to fight (hard) for my surgeon to leave my lymph nodes alone. I can't wait to forward this to him!! lol Thanks Lula! And here is to the women in the future

This is my disclaimer. This is my opinion. I could be totally wrong. [quote] know this was an effort in futility but I needed to get it off my chest. I know nothing will change (from past attempts) and the psychobabble will continue but I will not allow it distracted me anymore.[/quote] Here's my two cents. I'm on JU everyday, but don't read a lot of new articles every day....so

Triple Cocktail #4 was Tuesday...so I'm feeling a little wobbly. Only 2 more of those suckers though!! WOO HOO!!! (And so far I haven't been too sick to fight...buwhahaha). After these 6

[quote]You should file a complaint with the Ohio AG if she attempts to collect a penny over your copayment, Tova. If the AG's office shrugs (they shouldn't if they are doing their job), then file one with the Department of Insurance (or whatever they call it in Oh High Oh).

[quote]Two words for her: Pound. Sand.[/quote] I'm very angry about this now. (I know, better late than never, heh.) I guess she figures if she harasses me enough, I will just pay and be done with it. I don't feel good; don't feel like dealing with it. When the phone calls start (and that's how blatantly ballsy she is) I am going to tell her to sue

Just an update. Despite my insurance co. rep. calling the wig shop owner and going over the explanation of benefits, as well as sending her what they said in writing, TODAY I received a bill in the mail from the wig shop...not for my co-pay, but for the balance of the amount. Shesh.
