A good nap is a treasure these days. If yard work and home maintenance don't interfere with our need for sleep, the kids or the telephone will. We cram so much into each day that we rarely find time to unwind. Adults still need to get proper rest. Without sufficient downtime, no one can function at peak capacity. If you want to see true appreciation in your s

Whats Your... Name/Nickname: Teresa Country: USA City: Suburb of Dayton, Ohio Astrological sign: Cancer Profession: Mother, and I have a degree in elementary education How... Old: 42, for three more weeks Tall: 5 ft. 4 in. What is... your lucky number: 3 y
Happy Birthday, Dharma! And don't start with the middle-aged junk....I'll be 43 in just a couple of weeks, and I'm not middle-aged yet, so you can't be! I think once you hit 40 you're supposed to count back to 29 then stay there
Very well said, Trina! I've been away from JU for a couple of days, simply because all of the insanity was beginning to get to me, and I know myself well enough to know I was on the verge of saying some, although true, rather not-so-nice things, and I didn't want to put my account in jeopardy....so I ranted to my poor long-suffering husband, and stayed away till this evening. now I fee
What would happen if you (I’m talking about a woman, not a man) were walking to the bus stop on a dark, cold night. And out of the blue, a man comes up to you at gunpoint and rapes you. Three months later you find out that you are pregnant, and you are planning to go to college, and start a prosperous career. But, your dreams are
Last year Peyton Manning got in trouble because he was wearing a hat that wasn't official NFL merchandise on a TV interview. Just saw this....didn't know about Peyton, but I do know that John Kidna of the Cincinnati Bengals was fined for wearing a hat with a cross on it instead of the approved Nike hat
WOW that's craziness!!! Have you come across any of your mail that has the stamps stamped over with a little picture of shrek and the donkey?? I thought i was hallucinating the first time i saw that. What the hell is Shrek doing at the post office? Much less on my business mail??? YES! I got one of th
I'm feeling like I have the flu today. Just rough and blah, really. Lonesome was so sweet...he said he wished he was home to take care of me, and that he wished he could have taken the bite for me! What a sweetheart! Hope you're feeling better soon---and that they can get rid of the nasty little bugg
Just wanted to say that I've found one of the BEST!
I know just what you mean...darned Shrek has taken over my M & Ms, for pete's sake!! But seriously, the whole advertising/merchandising/film tie-in thing is getting way out of hand. It used to be a LOT easier to avoid, that's for sure.
Very moving and very well written....even though I had a sense of where it was going, I couldn't stop reading it. Riveting, and so sad!!
Dharma....even though I wasn't specifically mentioned (should I pout? ), tell him my email is always [email protected] that I'll be thinking of him.
[quote} There were, sort of ...and the picture said it was a Black Widow. It also said that whilst unpleasant, bites aren't usually fatal...I can just expect to feel rough for the rest of the day. I'm not going to call my doc on his day off to tell him, I'll wait and if I still feel bad tomorrow I"ll make an appointment to go in and be seen. So, that's how I spent my Sunday...getting nibbled on by an arachnid! Late reading this, bu
1. Will Nancy Reagan’s plea for stem-cell research change the right’s viewpoint? Probably not. 2. If it’s true that Kerry asked McCain to be his running mate, diminish respect you might have had for Kerry? What's less than zero? Seriously, though, if McCain had accepted, I might have had to wonder about HIM. 3. Do you belie
What separates two people most profoundly is a different sense and degree of cleanliness. Are yesterday's clothes draped across the treadmill? Has the mail accumulated on the credenza so long that the pizza coupons have expired? When frequently needed items aren't put away properly, chances are you'll spend countless minutes of your life frantically
Unempathetic people try to say the "right thing" without regard to how it will be recieved. Experience can help you acquire empathy but it certainly doesn't guarantee it. True compassion requires empathy. I hear and see a lot of people who claim to be tolerant and compassionate. Their lack of empathy usually exposes the trut
I'd be having the little morons arrested for breaking and entering.....unlawful entry...something.....They base cops can't really do much because they're minors. They're 8 and 4....old enough to know better but living with parents who think that I should just let it slide because they're kids. They can
Emotionpoet mom, you wouldn't be "poet mom" without it Exactly, mig! Hard to write good poetry without emotions...at least IMO.
they have no respect for anyone elses property of privacy and then act like the rest of us are being bitchy when we complain about their kids climbing our trees and breaking them, letting themselves into our houses, going through our storage boxes in our garage,...the list just goes on. Oh my goodness!
If you're offended, the you must have a guilty complex... if you said nothing of that ilk, then you have no say in this - as the remark was aimed at those who made the offensive remarks I'm offended because found the remark offensive. I said nothing of that ilk because I choose not to make offensive rem
You might as well face the facts. You won't necessarily feel attracted to your spouse when you gaze into their sleep-matted eyes in the morning. You may need an occasional reminder of what you ever found attractive in the first place. Prepare now for the day when the mystique of marriage fades and the excitement melts into the commonplace. Keep a record of al

Your intolerant, rascist, homophobic, classist, and arrogant remarks will not go un-checked I would ask anyone else reading this thread to answer this one. Does anyone else find that to be a condescending, insulting remark? You betcha!
