OH no no no!!! I come off wrong at times, I promise I wasn't speaking of you, I was refering to how I myself came off as a bitchy zero's wife on the other threads. I hate that I did that and immediately regretted it when it was pointed out to me because I can't stand when rank becomes an issue with the non active duty spouse or hell the active duty person for that matter but at least that I can understand What I mean to say is like what you refered t

I also didn't really enjoy working under the CPT's wife ARGHHH!!! I know how this system works, there is always somebody over your hubby unless of course you are the presidents wife. You are obviously dedicated to helping out your husband and I applaud you for that. Always remember that no matter what

She also won't wear short skirts or short shorts, and doesn't wear halter tops because again, they show too much skin for her liking. Good for you!!! My other brother came to visit and went with me to pick up Dakota from school, he couldn't get over the short skirts, belly showing shirts etc. School ru

dharmagrl: she's VERY modest about most stuff. How did you do that? I want the secret formula please! I guess it will come to me in time just like raising polite boys who aren't too gross but not geeky either. But for some reason I am much more scared about having the girl. Tex:<

PS - JU's addictive, isn't it? Slightly! Eric and I usualy talk on the phone, more so recently wih the impending birth of my newest neice. Anyway, we have had the discussion how addictive it is and pondered over why this is. So far I haven't come up with why, any thoughts on that?

Off subject....the middle school years and beyond are going to suck for you,. those boys are too handsome so all those loose little girls are going to be writing them notes and calling your house- I am there now and can't believe how forward these girls are....note to self, lock Maggie Grace up until she is 30.

When Adrian's away, we eat a lot of macaroni and cheese (good with Dijon mustard for grown ups!) and hot dogs...that's my youngest's favorite meal. Ha! When Karl was in Iraq my kids lived off of chicken quessadillas which in my house is a slice of cheese, a flour tortila and a little chicken, they thoug

Oh, forgot to say THANKS a million for giving me a second chance, a chance to redeem myself and express my opinions without coming off as before- truly appreciate it from another military wife.

Been there done that believe it or not. Ok, with a check not debit card- you can go to commisary and get the basics. Is the school lunch person a guy because the boob thing could work. Anyway, the pay will go in Thursday at midnight surely a check written Wednesday wouldn't clear in 24-36 hours? Good luck!

Don't shoot!! Just wanted to say Tex that I think it could be a sty and if so a warm moist washcloth would feel great for him and bring it to a head. Also from my experience with my boys pinkeye is itchy. I tried to post this on yours but forgot I was bitchy and got banned. Sorry for breaking the rules and talking to you on a thread like this but thought it might help a kid!

We gradually increase what we produce (even if, within two or three years, we are producing 60-70% of the food for our table, that's a SIGNIFICANT financial gain, if it were calculated...the money saved can be applied to other purposes. My inlaws have a few acres here in Georgia, that land and everythin

because of their polite nature and the obvious familial closeness I agree, have seen the same but I have seen that in a lot of military families too!

Reply to I AM An Educator! in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Thank you for stating that those of us who don't homeschool are still educators too. You are the first home school teacher that I have come across who hasn't been judmental of my sending my children to public schools, I have met many who think their way is the best which is great but that also think it is the only way. So thanks! You touched on the basics that we all teach our kids but if you don't mind I would like to add one point. With all the proj

Also, it still hasn't been ruled out Saddam didn't have WMD's, they were just not found. THANK YOU!!!! Let's see, we deployed our troops to Kuwait the January before the war....do you think maybe they had a heads up we were coming in to invade? 3rd ID was poised and ready to strike, yes he had time to

Well, lahdeefrickingda, a stay at home mom huh[/quote Ha very funny bro Hey by the way, the libraries here that I mentioned taking in kids took some sharp criticism on the eleven o clock news last night.

I am in Georgia and as a stay at home mom I don't mind the school closing, think it is very forward thinking on the Governor's part. DOn't know if those of you not in Georgia know this but we had a bit of a fuel crisis thanks to the local media back when Katrina hit. Schools were letting the teachers leave in shifts to go fill up their tanks as there was rampant rumors of gas shortages and prices spiked about a dollar per gallon in a mere five hours, l

I'll tell ya what....would you like me to go over your brothers comments that started all this and see how many he broke? If that is really posed as a question then the answer is no.

Me, I don't believe calling complete strangers "irresponsible" parents because of their income is courteous This wasn't directed at you Baker, and I am not speaking for anyone but myself.

However I think that your comment in line 181 definitely crosses the line of rules 1,2 and 3. I am not a rule monger or anything but I noticed that admin is irate about another user who hasn't crossed that line (threats of violence) yet you a regular user have repeatedly. I do hop
