This is a little embarrassing, but for the second time in three years the New England Motor Press AssociationÆs Winter Vehicle Test Day had to be postponed on account of, well, winter.
Each year the group puts its collective heads together and pools a couple centuriesÆ worth of snow-driving experience to come up with the official Winter Vehicle of New England. There are also a dozen or so class winners, divided up by price and type Ś SUV, sedan, luxury car, sports car, pickup truck and so on. (The Jeep Grand Cherokee has won the overall title for the past two years.)
Car manufacturers love awards, so around the holidays every year they begin to send us everything theyÆve got with all-wheel drive and heated steering wheels. Those vehicles get put through their paces a week at a time by the membership Ś people like me Ś and then in February we gather at our delivery garage, south of Boston, for a day-long powwow. We eat, talk, dash out into the cold in twos and threes to drive one car or another, come back, eat, argue, and eat. And finally begin to cast our ballots.
In 2011, as I mentioned, we had to postpone this event because too much winter fell from the sky the night before. Automotive News, AutoWeek and other publications showed us no mercy. The word ōwussö was never used, but there was a clear undertone of Hey-we-thought-you-Yankees-could-drive-in-the-snow.
And now itÆs happened again. WhatÆs worse, two days before Winter Storm Nemo blew in (when did snowstorms start getting names?), a sternly worded memo was sent to the membership, cautioning us that this would not happen again.
ōRoad crews will be out all Friday night,ö the memo concluded, ōand Saturday-morning traffic is likely to be light. Press on! What better test of a æwinter vehicleÆ is there, after all?ö
Press on, indeed. Twenty-four hours later another directive had to go out: ōOK, the weather forecast has worsened, the testosterone has subsided and reason has prevailed. Despite yesterdayÆs huffing & puffing, Winter Vehicle Test Day has indeed been postponed until next Saturday, February 16.ö
Someone suggested we just give the big trophy to whoever made it to the garage on Saturday morning, but since one member lives just down the street and another lives 250 miles away on the coast of Maine, the handicapping isnÆt quite equal.
So this column does not focus on a particular vehicle because the car in my driveway has already been written up and a fresh one was, shall we say, out of reach. For 48 hours I couldnÆt get out of my driveway, much less to Boston.
LetÆs keep our fingers crossed for next Saturday.

Two people were taken to the hospital Thursday night following a serious crash in north Spokane.
It happened at about 8:00pm at Nevada and Cozza just north of Francis. Spokane Police tell KHQ that a red car and a blue car were traveling northbound on Nevada at a high rate of speed when an SUV attempted to turn in front of them. The SUV was hit by the red car and the collision caused the red car to be thrown into the blue car.
The driver of the red car was taken to the hospital and we are told he is in critical condition. The driver of the blue car was also taken to the hospital with serious injuries. Neither of the drivers have been identified, however we are told the driver of the blue car is 19-year-old.
Both drivers could face charges depending on what investigators find.
Police say there was a family in the SUV, including an infant, and they were checked out by medics on scene. Amazingly, they did not have any injuries.
Investigators will be on scene for the majority of Thursday night and they are asking citizens to avoid the area.

Barlean's Organic Chia Seed Superfood 2850 mg. - 12 oz.
Barlean's Organic Chia Seeds are a whole, vegetarian superfood naturally rich in Omega-3 essential fatty acids, dietary fiber, antioxidants, protein and amino acids. Revered as a natural appetite supressant and offering a comprehensive range of nutrients, vitamins and minerals, this mild tasting seed is a great addition to smoothies, juices, salads and many other recipes. Dating back to ancient Aztec warriors and used today by endurance athletes and health enthusiasts alike, just a spoonful a day is an easy and delicious way to support your digestive health and satiate your appetite.
General Information - Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat are Essential Fatty Acids?Essential fatty acids are essential because the human body cannot manufacture them but needs them for many important functions. Therefore, essential fatty acids must be obtained from dietary sources.
What are "Omega-3" and "Omega-6" fatty acids? Omega-3 and omega-6 are families of essential fatty acids used to make local hormones that control the local functioning of tissues throughout the body. The omega-6 fats tend to have pro-inflammatory effects, and the omega-3s tend to have non-inflammatory effects. We need to have a balanced intake of mega-6s and omega-3s for optimal health. The essential fatty acids include the omega-6 fatty acids, (as found in most common vegetable oils and products from livestock animals raised on grain, and the omega-3 fatty acids, as found in flaxseed oil, wild ocean fish, wild game, products from livestock raised on green vegetation, and fish oil). Most people consume too much omega-6 fats and insufficient omega-3s. Therefore, we need to decrease the intake of omega-6 sources and increase the intake of omega-3 sources.
What is flax oil and is it the same as flaxseed oil?Yes, flaxseed oil and flax oil are the same. The seeds of the flax plant are pressed to obtain the nutrient rich oil that they contain. Flax oil is classified as a polyunsaturated vegetable oil. Flax oil is unique in this category, because it is the richest source of omega-3 as well as containing omega-6.
What is the recommended serving of flax oil for adults and children?The recommendation that is given most often by nutritionists and health care providers is 1 tablespoon of flax oil for every 100 lbs. of body weight, to be used daily. For a child the recommendation is 1 teaspoon of flax oil for every 33 lbs. of weight.
How many capsules does it take to equal one tablespoon of the oil?Technically it would take 14 capsules to equal 1 tablespoon of flax oil since each tablespoon is 14 grams and each capsule is 1 gram (1 gram = 1,000 mgs). Most people choose to use the oil since it mixes easily into the daily diet, although the capsules are very convenient for traveling and for keeping in places where refrigeration is not possible.
What are lignans and why would I want to have them in my oil?Many people choose the Highest Lignan Flax Oil simply because it is so rich in phytonutrients. The lignans are anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, help with digestion, and research also suggests they may be helpful in the prevention of certain types of cancer.
What is the difference between Borage Oil and Evening Primrose Oil? Both of these are sources of the beneficial omega-6 fatty acid known as GLA. Borage has been helpful for people with certain skin problems. For decades, women have been using evening primrose oil to alleviate the discomfort of PMS.
Fresh ExpressHow do I know my oil is fresh?Each bottle of their fresh pressed oil has two dates located on the side of the label. The first date will tell you exactly when that particular bottle of oil was pressed and the second will tell you when it should be opened in order to maintain full potency, optimal taste and freshness. You may open the bottle on the second date and still have eight weeks in which to use the oil.
Do you ship the oil refrigerated? Does the transit time affect the oil?Either high heat or sustained heat over a long period of time can degrade the oil. The relatively short transit times and variable seasonal temperatures encountered during transit have been found to be insignificant when tested. Remember, when you order your oil from Barlean's, it's made to order and shipped the very next business day.
What color should my flax oil be?If you have chosen to use Barleans Highest Lignan Flax Oil, expect the oil to range from a medium brown to almost licorice in color. Please be sure to shake the bottle well, since the particulate does tend to settle rapidly. Sometimes you may need to stir the lignan oil in order to get the particulate lifted from the bottom, especially if the bottle has been sitting upright, undisturbed for a long period of time. These instructions are noted on the bottle. You may want to store the bottle on its side or upside down in order to help the particulate be more easily dispersed.
If you have chosen the clear Flax Oil, expect the color to range from bright yellow to golden amber.
Why is there a variation in the color of the oil among different bottles? At Barlean's, they do not alter their oil in any way. This results in color and taste variations throughout the year depending on the variety of seed that is used for each batch, growing conditions, seasons, etc. Barleans oil is completely natural, and although methods could be used to make sure each batch is identical, they refuse to alter or change the oil from its natural state. The variations that occur from batch to batch are a part of nature.
Do my capsules need refrigeration?The capsules never need refrigeration. They may be kept on the counter or in a cupboard and will remain at full potency until the expiration date on the bottle.
Once I open the bottle of flax oil, how long will it stay "good"?Barleans suggest that once opened, you keep the bottle refrigerated and plan to use it within eight weeks for full potency.
Health Concerns & Information
Who can benefit from taking flax oil?Because flax oil contains both of the essential fats needed for optimal health, virtually everyone can benefit from taking flax oil. Essential fats are directly connected with many life-sustaining biological functions. A lack of essential fats in the diet has been associated with numerous diseases and health complications.
Will I get too much Omega 3 if I take flax oil?Since most people actually ingest much more omega-6 than they need each day, it is important to get enough omega-3 and cut back on extraneous omega-6 intake.
Will EFA oils cause me to gain weight?Of all the poly-unsaturated fatty acids in the human diet, the omega-3 fatty acids, as found in flaxseed oil and fish oil, put the least amount of fat on the body. In fact, these fatty acids actually increase metabolism and the burning of undesirable body fat. This is the reason knowledgeable personal trainers advise using flaxseed oil and fish oil as sources of energy that will not add extra unwanted fat tissue.
I take medications. Will Flax Oil interfere with my medicines?It is important that you consult your pharmacist or health care professional concerning your medications and let them know that you are planning to use flax oil as a part of your daily diet in order to obtain the healthy fats that your body needs.
Is flax oil safe during pregnancy?Please consult with your health care practitioner whenever embarking upon a new health care regime or when significantly altering or supplementing your diet, especially when pregnant.
Fresh Catch Fish OilHow can I be assured of the quality of Fresh Catch Fish Oils?Barlean's Fresh Catch Oils are all CRN (Council for Responsible Nutrition) Monograph compliant. The CRN is a Washington based trade association that represents ingredient suppliers and manufacturers in the supplement industry. CRN members must adhere to a strong code of ethics, comply with dosage limits and manufacture to high quality standards under Good Manfacturing Practices (GMP). The CRN developed a specific monograph for Omega 3 products. The monograph set quality standards/limits of environmental contaminants.
Barleans are also GISSI study compliant- this is an optimal dosing standard regarding potency and daily requirements.
Barleans fish oils are ultra purified and have integrity to ensure optimal digestion and assimilation. In addition, they are physician recommended.
Are there any common allergens in Fresh Catch Fish Oil?Fresh Catch Fish Oil contains no gluten, yeast, milk derivatives, artificial colors or flavors. It does contain natural vitamin E derived from refined soy.
How is oxidation prevented in Fresh Catch Fish Oils?Barlean's features a freshness system called "Five Layer Oxidation Protection" that protects their fish oil from the detrimental effects of heat, peroxides, oxygen and light. The result is the freshest fish oil in the world.
Five Layer Oxidation Protection System:
What is the difference between Fish Oil and Flax Oil?Both fish oil and flax oil ultimately supply your body with Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), which have been shown to have a number of important effects within the body. If you feel you are very Essential Fatty Acid depleted you may opt to take fish oil until you notice an improvement, and then convert to flax. Both oils have been shown to contribute positively to health and some people opt to take both oils, so that they complement each other.

Torchlight 2 Expected to Launch in SummerRunic Games currently expects to launch its much-anticipated action-RPG sequel Torchlight II in summer--possibly in July--the indie developer has revealed.
The game was initially announced as launching in spring 2011, a release window later revised to spring or summer. Now, it's been revealed that development on the Xbox Live Arcade edition of the original Torchlight--launching on March 9 for 1,200 Microsoft Points ($15)--has caused the sequel's release to be expected no sooner than summer.
"I'd say that the Xbox project, having to do the extra work with the interface, has pushed us back a little bit, so we're probably talking July right now for Torchlight II," Runic CEO Max Schaefer told Digital Spy. "It's going great, however," he added. "We've actually got some optimisations and technical improvements that went into making the Xbox version that we've been able to go back and implement into Torchlight II for PC."
However, Runic minister of culture Wonder Russell has since told Shacknews that the studio has yet to narrow down a release date "any closer than 'Summer' at this point," noting that "we don't consider it delayed by any means." We can rule out spring, at least.
Still, as Torchlight II will bring new features including online co-op, overworld areas, customisable characters and a new user interface, we're happy to wait.

Sculptured sterling silver symbolizes the silhouette of majestic mountain peaks and the soft colors of blue chalcedony, grey mother of pearl and amethyst recreate the colors that give the Smoky Mountains their name. Highly polished sterling silver frames a grey mother of pearl gemstone set into the center of this lovely piece; freeform amethyst and blue chalcedony cabochons provide the perfect accents. Pendant measures 2-5/8" long x 1" wide and has an oversized snap hinge bail. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Mist wraps itself magically around Carolina's layered peaks. Sculptural ribbons of sterling silver evoke the layered silhouette of these lovely mountains, while the soft colors of blue chalcedony, gray mother of pearl and amethyst recreate their mesmerizing light.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Price: $3990
Please take a minute and click here to tell us about your experience with Lotus Sculpture, our customer service and how you like your statue. We appreciate your feedback!
I cannot say enough positive about my experience in working with Kyle at Lotus Sculpture. I made a purchase of a beautiful Buddha, and it was damaged during shipping. Kyle was so positive and supportive, professional and personable: as unhappy as I am over loosing the beautiful Buddha I had chosen, Kyle worked with me to find another. I am very delighted with my Buddha; the new one has arrived safetly and is even more amazing than Kyle could describe. Every time I have ever contacted Kyle with any question, he has been very quick to respond, and given me good information. My overall experience with Kyle and Lotus Sculpture has been very positive, and I am looking forward to future satisfying events. Thank you, Des.Reviewer:Ava Desiree Hutsell (Warwick, RI, US)
Buying these Ganeshas were a dream of mine for so long and I'm glad I did. Kyle was absolutely wonderful to deal and my Ganeshas came rather quickly and beautifully packaged. They are treasures on my altar and already I'm thinking of my next purchase. Thank you Lotus Sculpture for your wonderful service.Reviewer:Aman Pillay (Auckland, Auckland, NZ)
I have been looking at this statue for years, and knew deep down that I wanted to add it to my collection of other Lotus Sculpture statues. This antique statue is unique (estimated to be between 50 and 200 years old) and was offered to me at such a special discount that I felt overwhelmed when I opened the box, carefully packaged by Kyle and his team. When I looked at Goddess Meenakshi I smiled, because her nose is slightly crooked just like mine! I knew immediately that I am part of her and she is part of me. She is now sitting proudly on a dresser beside another antique statue of Shiva. Their respective heights are perfect. The love couple is complete! Thanks to Lotus Sculpture and Kyle Tortora for his generosity and for giving me this one chance opportunity to be connected to what is close to my heart. May Lotus Sculpture be prosperous!Reviewer:Jenny Wolkowicki (Roselle Park, NJ, US)
In all of my interactions with the owner of Lotus Sculpture, I experienced respectful communication, clear organization and overall excellent customer service. Thank you. I love the piece I bought from you.Reviewer:Amy Nosek (Bowen Island, British Columbia, CA)
Kyle with Lotus Sculpture, worked with us to find the best situation for our new swimming pool. We purchased two beautiful Buddha Heads that now stand on our pool columns overlooking the pool. Beautiful!!! We'll continue to shop here for more special Buddha's.Reviewer:David A. Kress (Chandler, AZ, US)
LOVE IT. I can feel the energy of it. VERY BEAUTIFUL! Thank you! Namaste, FabienneReviewer:Fabienne Diaz (Chapel Hill, North Carolina, US)
This Buddha is going to be a gift and it will make a lovely gift. It arrived on time and well packed. Good job.Reviewer:Angus Vail (Salem, OR, US)
We have been shopping at Lotus Sculpture for a good number of years and we have always been pleased with our purchases. As you perhaps know, buying the statues is the first step and "energizing" them at the temple is another step and the latter is important for "bonding" with the statue and to "take the metal" out of it. Putting the "deity" in the statue is a time-consuming and costly step, depending on the temple one chooses. It could range between $100 - 300. Fortunately the purchase of the statue itself at Lotus Sculpture makes it a great first experience and the next steps are equally moving, organizing the trip, purchases for the real deity, costs to the temple and swamis etc. I wished that some of the statues were more affordable, but then I understand that you offer quality product and that you run a business, not a temple. At the most a payment plan should be offered (pardon me if it is, I am not aware of it) instead of putting the item on a credit card. Personally, I do not like to associate my statues with credit. I see every item that you sell as divine, at least the path to an incredible experience with the "other" world, be it Hindu or Buddhist. Thanks for the great opportunity for shopping at Lotus Sculpture. I received the Yantra and will have it consecrated at the Kali Temple in Burtonsville, MD. We have also bought: Kali blessed in Burtonsville, MD, a.k.a Miss Kitty The Goddess with the mirror (she is now Meenakshi, blessed at the Murugan temple of North America, a.k.a Babe Ganesh, a.k.a Bongo on drums, blessed at the Ganesh temple, Queens Muruga and his peacock,a.k.a. Murray, blessed at Palani Andavar's shrine, Murugan temple of North America. The peacock lamp They have all been blessed and contrary to popular belief, I do not have a special shrine or altar in my house, I place them wherever I desire in the house, bedroom, living room and I do not feel disrespectful towards them. I figure, if they can see me in form and formless, what difference does it make whether they are in my bedroom or in a special part of the house dedicated to them? I do not believe in strict adherence to rituals. I do not possess these statues for religious purposes only. We offer them the food we eat on a daily basis. They also have special names. They make us happy, we love them. The represent beauty, a presence of something divine or more, I do not know. I know that they love us and smile in turn, NOT ALL THE TIME and that is how I know that the deity is here with us. They sometimes show sadness. Basically the relationship with them is an endless labor of love, cooking for them, celebrating birthdays with them, buying fruits for bongo, gardening for them and so forth. The experience is unbelievable.Reviewer:Jenny (Roselle Park, nj, US)
Kyle Tortora provides a great service in making these murthies available, and best of all, he has a deep understanding of Hinduism and Buddhism, and the esoterics of worship. I've recently bought my second murthy from Lotus. Kyle maintains an outstanding inventory of beautiful statues in all materials and sizes and his prices are extremely reasonable. Shipping was super fast! His customer service is among the best I've ever encountered. Thank you Lotus Sculpture!Reviewer:Gayatri Rajan (CANYON, CA, US)

About Ganesh
~A Hymn from Sri Bhagavat-Tathva~
The chubby, gentle, wise, elephant-headed Ganesh, or Ganesha, is one of Hinduisms most popular deities. He is the remover of obstacles, the deity whom worshippers first acknowledge when they visit a temple. He is also patron of letters and of learning; he is the legendary scribe who, using his broken tusk, which he often holds, wrote down parts of the Mahabharata epic. Ganesh is usually depicted colored red; he is pot bellied, has one tusk broken, and has four arms that may hold a pasam, a goad, and a pot of rice or sweetmeats. The sweet meats are held in a type of bowl known as a laddus. His appetite for these sweets is legendary and offerings of them are often left at his shrine.
Statues of Ganesh can be found in most Indian towns. His image is placed where new houses are to be built; he is honored at the start of a journey or business venture, and poets traditionally invoke him at the start of a book.
A pasam is a triple twine weapon. Each of the three twines represents, arrogance and conceit, Maya - the illusory nature of the real world, ignorance. In Hindu ideology weapons are a viewed as symbolic tools to destroy the ego rather than to cause any type of bloodshed. Goads (or elephant prods) are typically used to direct elephants. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance and illusions of this earthly world just as a mahout would steer an elephant away from any treacherous path.
Wood statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. All the wood used by Lotus Sculpure's artists is dried out for months. Moisture causes cracks in the sculpture as the wood contracts and expands in different temperatures. Our wood has little to no moisture in it assuring that the sculpture is not going to crack in its journey into different climates. Here are some simple tips to keep your statue in good condition:
- Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
- To make the statue shine use a natural wood cleaner and a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture
We recommend keeping wooden statues in an indoor environment. Wood statues can go outside however, they will wear more quickly and develop an antique appearance. If you would like to put a wood statue from Lotus Sculpture outside and keep the same appearance of the sculpture we would recommend first coating the statue with a couple of layers of sealant or polyurethane. We would then recommend placing the statue in a partially covered area. The more exposure to the elements the more the statue will wear over time. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions regarding your wooden statue from Lotus Sculpture, (760) 994-4455 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

More iOS Games Than Console Games Since NES?The Unofficial Apple Weblog has mined some data and come up with a staggering comparison between the amount of games available on the iOS platform versus all of the games combined from 19 consoles since the NES and SEGA Master System.
By their numbers, the iOS platform has had an estimated 32,438 games that have been released, while the consoles examined account for an estimated 17,150 games. Those platforms are: NES, Master System, Genesis, SNES, PSX, N64, Saturn, Xbox, PS2, Gamecube, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, XNA, Xbox Live Arcade, Gameboy, GBA, DS, and PSP.
TUAW is quick to admit that its numbers or not very scientific and come with a bucket-full of caveats: a lot of duplicate games due to lite/demo versions and a lower barrier of entry for releasing a game than on any other platform. On the other side, many console games are multiplatform as well, accounting for duplicates on the other side.
Left off the list, however, are PC games including Flash and web games and a few other platforms, which would probably help close that gap in a big way, if not eclipse iOS entirely. It would have been nice to see Android and other mobile games represented, as well.
Still, it's an interesting, albeit inaccurate look at the energy behind iOS development and the sheer amount of games that have been released for the platform since July 2008. I'd wager the percentage of high quality games is probably lowest on iOS, though.

Today's hot young music stars sell out huge arenas in minutes. But if you wait a few more minutes, tickets will pop up on the Internet at incredibly inflated prices. How can a 15,000 seat venue sell out so fast time and time again? Mothers have war stories about trying to get tickets to shows like Justin Bieber. You sit at the computer frantically typing in that credit card information only to see a show is sold out. An I-Team investigation finds scalpers get many of them, but records also show Bieber's own people may be in on it. Teen heartthrob Justin Bieber's videos lure kids of all ages to arenas, and they are crazy about him. It's a thrill for the girls, but a nightmare for parents trying to get tickets."I'd place the order. I'd process it, and every time it would process it, it would say, Sold out," said parent Jenna Sandusky.She ended up buying tickets online from a broker for almost twice the original ticket price."So it was a long process. We barely made it here," said Sandusky.Why do you have to go to scalpers to get the hot tickets these days? Justin Beiber's ticketing requirements with a Nashville arena provides some clues, and you will start to understand the secret of the concert business -- how so few tickets are actually available to the general public. Management at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena blocked FOX 5 from getting Bieber's ticketing instructions because they aren't Tennessee residents, but NewsChannel5 in Nashville got them.
Bridgestone is a great place to see a concert with nearly 14,000 seats. Here's the shocker for Bieber fans -- according to arena documents, only 1,001 of those seats were actually available to the general public. Nicole Smith, a mother who has tried to get tickets to popular shows, was shocked by what the I-Team revealed. The I-Team asked Philips Arena for the same seating information, but were told no. They call this information their "secret formula" and giving it up they think would hurt relationships with "promoters."Elizabeth Owen is a consultant for Fan Freedom Project, an organization putting a spotlight on ticketholder rights."There are thousands of tickets held back for every concert, and people like you and me, we get the leftovers," said Owen.At Justin Bieber's Nashville show, 93 percent of the tickets were set aside, including nearly 6,000 for American Express cardholders and almost 3000 for fan club members. It's these tickets that can end up with scalpers.Three hundred of those hard-to-get Justin Bieber tickets, the Arena documents show , were "on hold" for the tour itself. But just after tickets went on sale, NewsChannel5found them on re-sale ticket sites. Dean Budnick co-authored Ticket Masters: The Rise of the Concert Industry and How the Public Got Scalped. He says in this case Bieber's team may have scalped its own tickets. "It was pretty clear if you looked at the inventory set aside, much of it then went on sale on the secondary market, that the tour itself was doing that," said Budnick.The I-Team has tried to get in touch with Justin Bieber's people, but no one got back to us. But it's loud and clear, the industry's hottest tickets really are hard to get. "I understand it's a business. Just let parents know upfront what their chances are. Even the lottery gives you a general idea of what your chances are," said Owen.Nicole Smith said she thinks it's wrong.The I-Team asked Gwinnett Arena for concert seating records and unlike Philips Arena, they handed them over. For a recent Carrie Underwood show, just more than 50 percent of her tickets went on sale to the general public. For country singer Eric Church, only 37 percent went to the general public.

Yeah i would look and see what the ingredients are. There are a lot of dog food options. So if was say fish based, I would try another fish based one. Dog food is so weird. Like DH and I both think that ToW smells icky. Not rotten but not good to us. But the girls like it. A lot. I stuff it in a toy and they go after it like it's a treat. But not so much that if I put it out and they aren't hungry, it sits. Which is good as I don't want Cosmo overeating.
I did offer them some Blue at my parents house as they just switched to that. My girls didn't want anything to do with it. Parents dogs wanted the ToW though. I have thought about trying a different flavor on them....there is a bison/vension one, a fish one, the fowl one which is what we are on and maybe one more. But I just don't think that I want to mess with something that is working.
before I switched them, I did buy a small little bag to see if they liked it or not. And spent well over a week switching it gradually.

September 2014
With spindly strings horning in the opening instrumental, "Dragoon" awakens Seagulls' debut LP Great Pine, seamlessly transitioning into "Swimmin'," a song that is initially given a steady-footed beat around which a more intricate and illuminating composition is built generating a peaceful yet purposeful layered sound, setting the tone for what lies ahead. "You and Me" plays like a surf-folk love letter, developing a warm, earnest vocal confession, while fitting nicely with the tug and pull groove of the scratching guitar and persistent bass. The vocal harmonies provide a sweetness accompanied by reserved bursts of trumpet and accordion-like effects offer a tease of nostalgia.
"Love, Give" follows a similar theme as vocals, strings, and snap-percussion set a pleasant, pensive, strolling pace as echoing harmonies and backing vocals reinforce, "Love give your hands to me, for someday I'll be on bended knee." "Old Habits" maintains an up close lo-fi aesthetic and underlying 8-bit accents, but the perspective has changed, shining a light on the dark side of relationships and a groove that has a somewhat worn and dusty ascetic, enhancing the lyrics meaning - "Old habits, die hard or they never do/so keep lying til they all catch up to you." A well-placed take on Big Star's "Thirteen" incorporates the honest-loving sentiments of adolescence, falling neatly inline with the group's heartfelt vocal honesty, while simultaneously acknowledging one of their potential influences.
The record's title-track "Great Pine" serves as a breath-catching ambiance builder before the turbulent "Holy Smokes" emerges. Enlisting peaks of aggressive kick-in-the-door instrumentation - particularly percussion between smooth stretches of vocally dominant valleys - in essence, layering pieces of clear skies between moments of violent storms.
"Distracted" concludes Great Pine with an uplifting blanket of vocals, allowing the guitar to stretch its sea legs as the backend force steers the musical ship; holding the course. This album starts on the shore, and while there are moments where it seems destined to searchingly drift out there, Seagulls appropriately demonstrate an ability to reel it in, taking a beautiful inaugural voyage. - Michael Colavita

I've recently become a big fan of the Hartnell years thanks to DVD. Be a lot of fun watching the shows mythology being built.
My son really loves Sylvester Mccoy, so I've been re-watching them with him and gaining a new appreciation for the seventh Doctor and Ace. His first season was rough, but I liked how it developed.

I bought myself a Kindle Fire. It won't be shipped till mid-November.
Erin, reusing the Halloween candy is a brilliant idea!
Bridget, I hope Sawyer feels better soon. Josh went through teething amazingly well (I wouldn't have even known he got a new tooth if I hadn't kept checking) but I think I have heard about babies getting sick while they're teething.
I don't have a huge family, but most of them aren't local and I don't know most of them very well so I have to worry about what to get them and then worry about getting it to them in time. I always feel rushed and I feel like I didn't get them anything personal enough. I send e mails out asking what people would like and they never give me ideas!
Rant over...sorry!
Abbey's birthday is January, so I'm trying hard not to go overboard for Christmas. I know she's getting a dollhouse (actually a fairy house) and a mini trampoline. I'm also making her a nap mat and a matching one for her bear.
She'll probably get books and some rocks to add to her collection as well, as stocking stuffers.
But for her birthday Matt's going to make a couple waldorf playstands. I'm going to try to make the silks that go on top.
Gwen that is a weird comment. I fully believe that we both will be moms and will be great ones. Just a matter of time.
I also didn't picture Bridget as being on the shorter side.
Christina, when people start talking all religious like, I just respond with something like Oh my family isn't really all that religious. At this point I do feel like I have one (though I rarely get my butt out of bed for church) and say that I'm a unitarian universalist (which you can be christian but you can be an atheist there or whatever you want). But really most people I work with seem to not really talk much about religion at all.
Umm, how can you not believe in cholesterol? FWIW, there does seem to be two different issues there. You can have people who can control it through diet and exercise....but you also have people where high is truly genetic. I personally know some who are thin, exercise a ton, eat right and still need to be on statins.
On xmas.....I LOVE it. I love the traditions and decorations. I like making the frosted cutout cookies I have always made with my mom, having the stocking hung that my mom made, having ornaments on my tree that my parents started getting for me when I was a baby/child. I love the songs, I even love my nativity scene (I don't believe but like the story and well the little baby and animals are cute). I have a small family anyway but we don't buy much anymore. And I think that this year it will probably just be DH and I at home. I will get some candy probably and some lottery tickets for our stockings. I will get a toy for Cosmo and some Legos for DH. But the majority of "presents" are empty boxes that I wrapped last year because well it just looks nice to have them under the tree. I even like sending out the cards. Now once we have a baby and my sister has a baby....I would buy for them. Probably a lot. I do think that my child is in danger of being spoiled because well I have waited a long time, DH is an only child so his mom's only grandkid and my parents probably won't have more than 2-3 grandkids and have been waiting a long time. Probably the only thing that will help is DH holding me back.
Dh and I do disagree on Santa. I want to do it, he's not so into it. His problem is wants the good gifts to come from him and for the kid to know he's giving the good ones.
Oh Jennifer I didn't say Gma won't go crazy I keep telling her he's only going to be 10 months old, he's not going to care about anything but the wrapping paper! If it was up to me thats what he would be getting, the child doesn't need any toys or anything we have a living room full
I thought about wrapping up empty boxes for looks, but DH kind of looked at me like I was crazy I can't decide on Santa either, I'm not neccesarily opposed, but at the same I just don't see the point. Mom and DH want to do Santa though, so more than likely we will
My mom says if you don't believe in Santa he won't come. So my dad, sister and I still believe.
DH is getting this for xmas http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Fire-Brigade-10197 and this one for his birthday in Jan. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Grand-Emporium-10211 I might also get him this one http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Emerald-Night-10194
And yup he is just like a kid with his toys.
I would like a puppy or a baby for xmas....but don't think that I will get either one! Otherwise I want to buy Cosmo 2 toys. I don't want anything else really but I basically buy what I want all year long once I'm really sure we have a need/use/strong desire for whatever it is.
I absolutely do not feel bad spending money. We work hard for it and saved and lived tight for years. And we only buy what we can afford.
Bridge, for Sawyer. Teething must be so uncomfortable for them. Let's hope the pain has peaked already.
On Xmas... it can be such a commercial holiday (as in I hate the commercials. Lol.). I try to put meaning into it by handmaking things for people, but usually by the time I get around to it, I'm late and rushing. To do it the way I'd want, I'd have to start now, but then I resent the non-negotiable deadline. I know. I know. I have the worst attitude about it. Bodhi has made it much better since I see the holiday thru his eyes now too. This year, we'll be in Vegas again; my aunt is so into lavish parties and inviting random people she meets on cruises that I have to make polite small talk with. The good part is that DH & I are planning to do an overnight backpacking trip into Zion if we feel comfortable enough to leave B w/ my folks this yr.
I'll see if I can dig up the duck story. I know Molly got the brunt of it when it happened.

Jennifer I think your DH and mine would get along wonderfully
I love Christmas. Food, wine and presents. Oh, and the Queen's speech. I couldn't not love that!
Mandy, that does sound a little mean of that lady to have said that to you; I would've looked at her like WTFBBQ?
Sorry Sawyer is not well. I hope the little'n feels better soon!
I did my substitute teaching today; it went really well! Some of the things the kids say to each other and to me would make one of those funny little one-liner books! LOL
Forgot to say I hope Sawyer feels better. I always wonder about teething too. Ky was never bothered by it but Elle would get fevers of 101 and up every time some teeth would pop through. It was pretty strange, especially since my aunt who is a nurse keeps insisting to me that teething cannot cause fevers, only illness can cause fevers. But I swear as soon as those buggers popped through, Elle was fine.
Regarding Santa, I never bring him up, but kids seem to pick it up from other kids and just the Christmas programming and atmosphere. We never told Ky about Santa and DH especially has very blatantly told Ky that Santa is not real since he was 2 or 3 but Ky still was excited about Santa and I think he really wants to believe he's real because it is so magical and fantastical the thought of a real Santa. I don't go out of my way to be like "Quit talking about Santa, He's not real dog-gone-it!!!" I think it is cute so I don't say anything either way. Ky is at the age now where he knows Santa is not real but he will still talk about him and I can see his mind thinking imaginatively about it and I like that he is still childlike in this way. I told DH that and he has cut back on the "fat man doesn't bring presents" stuff as well.
When I was little, there was a older guy down the block and on xmas eve he would dress up and stop by the houses with the kids and visit and bring a little gift. How sweet that was one of him. (the parents knew he would be stopping by). That was when we had a nice neighborhood before it got icky when I was a teen (the older people died and we got a lot of renters or trashy people in there and a house a few down from me was a druggie house). But when I was a kid, we had young families or elderly and knew most of the people. It was great.
My dad looks like santa if you put a red suit on him....same with his brother....and he even has the perfect hohoho.
Ash glad you had a good day subbing!
Jennifer that is just too sweet!
Molly the oil from the amber is supposed to be absorbed through the skin and provide pain relief for teething, arthritis. I got one for dbf too.
We pretend Santa is real but Savana demanded the truth at a young age so they know it's pretend.
So we found a little fuzzy leopard printed children's purse (empty) on our stairs when we got home from trick or treating on Halloween. Nobody came back to claim it and Josh asked if he could have it. DH kind of shook his head, but what did he expect? Josh spends all day with someone who uses a purse.
Dbf will carry the girly diaper bag ever since his mom was here and she said, "you have a husband, use him" because I had Sawyer and the bag and she knew I'd been having neck pain.
Now my dad will always carry the diaper bag, my purse, Savana's purse, whatever. He doesn't even think twice.
Myles! I forgot in my previous post to say that the farm where we have been getting our raw milk always has packets of info you can take along and there was one that said, "The Myth about Cholesterol" and it's just what your friend was talking about I bet. I read it and you know I can't even remember what it said! lol. That is terrible that I didn't retain anything from that.
So today Abbey was doing something and I asked her if she was ready for her bath. She ignored me, so I said "Can you put on your listening ears?" She did what she always does, this little twisting motion near her ears and then looked at me expectantly. I asked again and she said "Yes" then she did the twisting motion again. I asked her "What are you doing?" and she said "Taking off my listening ears." lol. Because she wouldn't want to accidentally listen to me all the time.
That's interesting about the cholesterol. I'll have to read more in to it. The first time in life that I ever fainted was when I was getting a free cholesterol check at work and they squeezed my finger for a blood drop and I hit the floor....so...no cholesterol check for me!
My husband and my FIL both carry my and my MIL's purses for us in public. It's cute.
Ah, and to answer the question you asked, Chrissy about p/t or f/t. I definitely would prefer p/t but the job and the school are ideal for me so if they can only offer f/t, I might just have to take it b/c it would be too good to pass up!

Chrissy. How are you feeling about your decision?
Chrissy. How are you feeling about your decision?
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Big hugs, Chrissy. I hope you get where you need to be very soon.
Jennifer -I'm very sorry to hear about your mom.

Hugs, Chrissy. I hope that everything comes together for you.
We're babysitting our 2 nephews and niece tonight while my Bil and Sil are out til 10:30, so we've got 5 kids who are 4 and under: two 4 year olds, a 3 year old, a 20 month old and a 15 month old. And it's been easy peasy. I got the two young'ns to sleep by 7:30. The older 3 boys have watched a movie and had popcorn, wrestled, played cars, colored and played with legos. I'm sure they'll wear themselves out eventually!

Jennifer, so sorry to hear about your mom. For what it's worth, waking up during a colonoscopy means absolutely nothing in terms of whether or not she is sensitive or not to medication or anesthesia. A lot of times it has everything to do with how cautious the performing doctor is with sedation.
Chrissy, how are you feeling today? I'm sure in some ways it must be a relief to finally not be in limbo and be taking this step instead of wondering and waiting. On the other hand, it must feel so final in so many ways.
Happy mother's day to all of our mothers and mothers-to-be! Yes, I'm talking to you, Jennifer and Mandy.
Claire has been writing me mother's day notes. She has been writing like crazy lately. Last night she wrote me this:
(Happy Mother's Day. I love you. I love playing with you because I love the earth and it loves me too. From Claire.)
This makes my heart fill up with happiness far more than the decorated pot with flowers she brought home from preschool. I had not realized that being able to write like this, to hear words and figure out which letters probably combine to form those words, is an advanced skill for a 4-year-old, until DD's preschool teacher saw her write a note and the teacher ran through the school waving it around and showing it to all of the teachers, shouting about how she was writing. It was a really short note, too.
DS reads better than DD, but my DH pointed out that DD's drive is to communicate, and is a "typical female." He said she's just one step away from passing notes and updating her facebook status, and that she really wants to write because she wants to send letters and write notes to her friends, whereas she doesn't have as strong a need to read, and DS doesn't have that same drive to write. It is true that everything she writes is for someone else, and she often asks me to send the notes she writes.
The kids are continuing to be screechy and fighting, and not following rules. DS hid from my mom at the park the other day.
I'm still sick. I'm feeling completely exhausted. I dozed off in the car the other day and rear-ended someone. Luckily it was just a tap and she got out of her car, asked, "Umm, did you just hit me?" and I said yes and sorry and she looked at her bumper and shrugged and let it go. In all the years I've been sleep-deprived and exhausted, this never happened before. I'm actually sleeping more than usual at night, too. I thought I got sick because my medication was changed, and I just got it changed back, so hopefully I'll get better.
I finally got it together to do a birthday party for baby S., so it's happening this afternoon at my mom's house. We're just having family. I didn't even bother inviting anyone else because I had a hard enough time planning it in the first place and because it's on mother's day and I figure everyone with children has plans already.
Oh L, how scary that you fell asleep at the wheel! I do hope the medication change makes you feel better. I'm always amazed with your kids. They really are bright. Maybe the trade-off is that they're more difficult at bedtime. I hope this phase ends really soon for all of you. It can't be fun for them either.
So far I haven't felt like my move is final, which is strange. It feels like a new phase. Perhaps I'll be able to let go of some of my anger/resentment. Maybe Rich will grow some of his own toward me. I was totally kidding him yesterday and asked if he'd come clean my apartment for me because he's been doing 99% of all the housework here. He first said yes, he'd do anything and I looked at him with 'that look' and then he said no, he wouldn't. He will help me move heavy furniture up the stairs, but other than that I'm on my own. I really think I need that. Let's just hope I don't end up living in my own filth. :/ You know how depressed people start slacking in the housework...I've definitely noticed that. I like to think I'm the kind that can't live that way. I guess we'll see.
L, I suppose it was easy because we'd only done it that one time; I can't imagine doing that every day with 5 kids. The 2 little ones were a breeze. Baby M who is 15 months old went straight to sleep when I rocked her the rocking chair and sang 'When I'm 64' to her. Cash went to sleep like he normally does with a bit of singing and tucking him in with his blanket and leaving his little music box on for him. The older 3 didn't go to bed til 10:30! They were so hyped up. And you're right, L; they never did wear themselves out. They would have kept going if we hadn't physically carried them up to bed and tucked them in. DH told them he'd count to 100 and see who'd fall asleep first. Travis was out by 26, Z was out by 35 and R, the youngest of the 3 was out by 57. LOL. It was a fun night for them all and we'll definitely do it again. This might be the start of something for us in trading off babysitting services between us. SIL and BIL had a great time at their work's function. They got all dressed up and drank champagne and then there was a room full of stuff for them to 'play' with after they were all drunk, apparently; for example, a surf board on one of those blow up things where you try to keep your balance and SIL's favorite was a big pillow fight area where they all beat the stuffing out of each other. LOL.
I just wanted to say happy Mother's day to all y'all in the States. It's not mother's day for me here, but I thought of all y'all celebrating today. I hope you have great days. I sent my mom flowers and will call her later on. As I've gotten older and had my own kids, I've realized how much I love my own momma. She wasn't always the best parent, but I think she tried hard in her own way and I'm really proud of her in the last few years for straightening up her life as much as she has.
Chrissy, Good luck with the apartment. Try to make it your own space and enjoy it so you will keep up with it.
L, thank you for the mother's day wishes. I was thinking earlier how cruel it was to have to celebrate Mother's Day while STC. It was so nice to come in here and see you say that.
Tell your DH that reading and writing are both communication and your kids are excelling each in their own way. Claire's writing is really very advanced. It is rare for us to see a child that can write both their first and last name in preschool, even the kids we test who are just there for speech sound errors and cognitively quite advanced.

I forgot to say, L, that that is really good of C to be writing that well. I've worked with 6 year olds who don't write that well. Travis has started phonetically sounding out words and it makes me so proud.
Jen, I'm sorry to hear about your mom, I hope it ends up not serious.
Chrissy, Good luck with this next phase of your life, I hope this move makes you happier and more settled.
L, That's awesome that your kids are so advanced! What a nice note!
I am in the midst of planning the kids birthday party (their birthdays are 2 days apart so we are doing a combo party). I sent out 60ish invites which correlates to over 100 people, but I've only heard back from like 10. It's hard to plan food and stuff that way! It's at our house on memorial day weekend.
AKA Lisa724
I've gotten really lazy and have thrown the last few b-day parties at our local bowling alley. All kids seem to enjoy it, and they can whip up a pizza on the fly...and I have had to buy extras for unexpected guests. It's happened more as the girls got older. One friend would mention to others they were there, and I always want to feed the extra kids that show up. It's a good time...I wonder if I'll be able to afford to do that in the future though.
I have to say that things are going better than expected at my house on the whole. Of course there have been some tears and Conner tore me to shreds by saying last night that his heart will break when I move out. I expected things like that, but it's not as often or intense as I feared. Right now both Syd and Conner are saying they don't want to stay with me. Syd says only every-other-weekend and Conner says he doesn't ever want to spend the night with me. But I think that will change. I'm not going to push it and I'm going to just be patient. This is going to be the hardest part.
Rich is confused and hurt, but he's trying oh-so-hard to be supportive. He's hoping this will fix our relationship. I really don't have any hope that it will, but I'm not going to say that. I'm not shutting any doors though...whatever will be will be. I guess my brother had a good talk with Rich over the weekend and he's thinking the same thing, that I'm going to just come back. He was saying to Rich, "Just let Sis do this if she needs to. What's she going to be out? A security deposit? So what. If this is what she feels she needs to do, then let her go." It hurts to hear that, but I'm grateful that my brother will be there for Rich. He will need it.
Rich did go to a friend's bbq and have 2-3 beers yesterday. My fear is that the drinking will start up again and intensify and I did tell him flat out that if it does, he WILL have a fight on his hands for the kids.
Chrissy I am excited for you making this change. I hope your kids will adjust soon but really I am just hoping that you get the space you need and am hoping the best for you.
L that note from Claire is so sweet!! I also think it is very advanced. I love how she loves you and the earth, that is just adorable to me.
We didn't do much for Mother's Day. I just sat around and did nothing. I blew out my hair to see how long it has gotten and it is really long, so long I want to cut it. I will probably clip the ends today but I didn't wear it straight because I didn't want everyone asking me if I had a wig or weave on, which always happens when I straighten my hair because it is usually 6 inches longer than what it looks like normally. Elle was just amazed as I haven't done this since she was a baby so she doesn't remember. I told her I would blow hers out next time I wash it, probably tomorrow or Wednesday and she is looking forward to it. Blow drying hair is a real tasks IMO. Those that do it everyday, I don't know how you do it, it is so tedious.
Chrissy, you'll be in my thoughts as you make your move. I really hope things start looking up for you soon.
Erin, I know what you mean about blow-drying hair. I have worn my hair wavy lately because I hate how tedious blow-drying my hair and then straightening it is. When it's wavy, I just let it air dry with some mousse in and then use the straightener to calm the frizzy bits down. When it's straight, every section has to be done perfectly whereas wavy hair can just be all over the place. I prefer myself with straight hair, but I know it's healthier for it to not have that much heat on it every day.
Happy Monday! I hope everyone enjoyed their Mothers Day
Chrissy many mama. I don't even know what to say or how best to be supportive in this particular situation. All I know is that I believe that making yourself happy should always be a priority, no matter what that means.
My mom and dad "talked" over the weekend and she told him she wanted a divorce. He was surprisingly OK with it (or as OK as you can be-I suppose). He even said that he should be the one to pay for it Moms made it pretty clear over the past few months that she wasn't moving back in with him, so I can only assume he suspected this was to come. I'm happy for her, her stress level has been SO much lower since she's come to peace with her decision to leave him.
I've actually been considerably (and surprisingly) unhappy with DH lately. I feel like everytime I turn around I am questioning him about something and I can't for the life of me figure out why. It almost feels like I am looking for something to upset me
Sometimes I truely hate the complexities and dynamics that are a reality in relationships.....
to your mom and dad. It's definitely rough.
And for you too. Relationships cycle and I'm the last person that knows when it's time to say when. Some of me feels like I stayed too long and some of me worries I'm giving up to early. Only time will tell I guess.
I don't blow dry my hair. I was worried about this most recent hair cut I got because she took like half an hour to style it. Fortunately so far it looks okay if I just brush it and let it air dry (I take my showers at night) Then in the morning I just run a wet brush through it.
Christina I'm sorry your parents are getting divorced and that you're finding fault with DH.
Last edited by daylilies; 05-14-2012 at 08:46 AM.
Not his fault though, it's what he became used too while I had my nose stuck in a book. He told me yesterday he is going to plan something with my mom behind my back so I can't say that we don't have anyone to watch Nolan, etc.
Chrissy. I hope that the space gives you clarity in whatever comes next.
No news on my mom yet. I do know that they are doing a D&C whatever the biopsy says.
L, I hope you feel better soon and get a little more rest than you have been.
Our weekend was otherwise fine once we stopped fighting....we can both be such nags and it turns into who hurt whose feelings first.
Saturday we got some of the veggies planted....broccoli and brussel sprouts. And DH put some strawberries and strawberry plants in the field right along the property line (farmer doesn't farm that close to us so it's just weeds). Did more watering as we are trying to get grass to grow....we regret not putting in the sprinkler system when we built but now it's more expensive to do and growing a nice lawn is such a PITA.
Saturday night we went and saw Spring Awakening, a musical done by a local theater group. It was a pretty good show.
Sunday we went to a really nice nursery in town and while standing in line to buy, they were handing out chocolate strawberries...the nice big ones....to the ladies for mother's day. I took one and enjoyed it. We ended up buying two more trees....a maple with dark red leaves for the back and a fruitless crabapple that has white blooms for the front. I think that we are done buying trees now. They will plant them early June. A year and a half ago we put in the spruce in the bank and the oak out front. Our yard used to be a farm field so we had no trees at all on the property when we moved in.
I rarely blow dry my hair. Most of the time it gets washed at night and I don't wash it every day....probably 3-4 times a week depending on how the days fall. I straighten it once in a while....I did this weekend. I have a really hard time getting the back though so most of the time I let it air dry, brush it out and tie it back before bed. Next morning it is wavy when I take the three scrunchies out. My hair curls naturally but right now it's pretty long being just an inch or two from my waist so it's been more wearing waves than curls. Once I chop it off, I will be back to wearing curls more again....which is more work and more hair products. It's weird to think but the longer my hair is, the easier it is to deal with.
But I will be chopping it off, probably later this year because I have always wanted to donate it once....and probably won't be too far in the future when I'm dying the white out.
I didn't even think about thinner hair Chrissy. That would be much easier to dry. My hair is like a jungle though, extrmely thick, which is why I usually don't even bother blowing it out as it takes nearly an hour and I have to part it in very small sections. It took over an hour last night but I did take breaks to watch Once Upon a Time after it came on. Mine is also very brittle and I've heard that heat can dry out the hair so I just wear it curly most of the time and let it dry by itself. I actually wanted to blow it out because that is the best way I can see how damaged it is so I usually do that twice per year and give myself a haircut. I was planning on only cutting the ends but I think I may do more than that and start up an intensive conditioning regime again. But enough about boring hair stuff....
I forgot to mention to you all that DH caught a lizard while I was away on my cruise a couple weeks ago and his silly self went to the pet store and bought a habitat for it and everything. I was so POd. It was a small little habitat though and for some reason DH thought that, like Ky's turtle, lizards need to bask in the sun. I told him that it didn't since they are usually always hiding to get away from the sun and I suggested he look it up online. Instead he put the thing out in the sun for an hour and it died. He felt really bad about it too. He had told Elle it was hers since she wanted a pet since Ky has a turtle. I have been telling her she can have a goldfish when she is 6 (and it is so cute because she tells everyone this LOL). Instead of breaking her heart and telling her the lizard died, he told her that it ran away LOL. He caught it at one of Ky's baseball games so the other day one of the mom's of one of the players asked her how her lizard was doing and she just said "Crawley ran away" (Crawley was what she named the lizard) and they were looking at me all confused, like how in the heck do lizards run away so I had to tell them that DH caused it to die (he doesn't like me saying he killed it) and they thought it was funny how serious Elle was about her lizard running away. I kind of felt bad that DH lied to her but I also don't want to endure her grief over Crawley so I decided not to tell her.
Jennifer, I am so sorry about your mom.
Chrissy, big hugs. Sorry that Syd took it so hard.
We are back from our trip to Disney World. We had a blast!! I loved seeing all the sights and sounds through Gilly's eyes. So much fun!!
Shelley-mom to DS, 6
I have super curly hair and I've only straightened it a handful of times in my life. It takes for.ev.er and if there is any humidity in the air, it springs right back up. I've given up and just let it do it's thing. It's really healthy though. Well, except for the fact that it is falling out like crazy the last few months. Not sure what is going on with that.
Poor Crawley
AKA Lisa724
Lisa, I think it might be common for woman to lose some hair after birth?
I lost about 50% of my hair after my surgery 8 years ago. It's really common after that and I had it happen too even though I was hardcore about making sure to get all my protein in. I know some who actually needed wigs after! But I had a lot to start so really only ones who noticed were DH (since he cleans the shower drain!), my mom and my hair dresser. I eventually cut it short (shoulder length) and put in some layers as it was growing back in so it looked ok.
It is normal to lose hair post partum and I did, a ton. But then it stopped about 4mo pp and went back to normal. It started up again around february (7-8ish mo PP) and hasn't gotten better. It's A LOT. Like, a handful as I'm washing my hair and another handful when I'm putting mousse in it. I'm probably going to call and ask my doctor about it soon. I don't have any other symptoms of anything though.
AKA Lisa724
My hair didn't even start falling out PP until around 7-8 months PP with both kids. With Ky I thought I had male pattern baldness, my whole hairline in the front fell out. I did have some loss all over but because my hair is super thick you couldn't tell really, but I could. I was told it was normal for hair to fall out at the time mine did due to nursing and hormones or something one of my doctors told me. It eventually did grow back.
And I don't know what was up with DH with poor Crawley. Usually I am around when he catches critters. This isn't the first time he has caught a lizard. He has also caught snakes before and he has a fascination with large grasshoppers and will put them in cages too. Usually I can convince him not to keep them past a day or two by reminding him of how much he hates to see animals caged at the zoo (he actually won't go to the zoo because of this) and how it is more cruel to keep an animal in a little enclosed area versus the animals in the zoo we go to since they actually have quite a bit of room and the zoologists now have natural habitats for animals to keep them comfortable and more happy. He is like a bad little boy in this area though but I haven't said anything else about Crawley since he really is sad about it. I just hope this reminds him not to catch and bring home animals in the future.

If you drink coffee there's a good chance you like Kahlua, the coffee flavored, rum-based liqueur. It makes a great slow sipping cordial after dinner or you can drop a shot into a cup of coffee. Kahlua is also an ingredient in some recipes such as soaking lady fingers in tiramisu.
The only problem with Kahlua is that it's expensive. Here's a quick recipe for making Kahlua at home.
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 teaspoons instant coffee
Bring those ingredients to a boil and simmer for an hour. During the simmer, add 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cool and add 1 1/4 to 2 cups vodka

Having had a less than happy experience with a sheer and glittery Paint Pot a few years ago (Dangerous Cuvee from ChamPale), I was more than a bit leery when I looked at this in store the other day. It looked SO pretty but swatched SO glittery. But I figured, "What the heck" and asked my beloved MAC lady for a sample (there is no irony there; the women at the MAC counter at my particular Hudson's Bay store are really lovely). Well, I totally LOVE this and I'm going back for the full size, which is probably silly given my age and lifestyle. But still, is is just so darned pretty – a darkened, grey-ish purple that looks pretty as anything applied sheerly (it's pretty sheer) on the mobile lid. The glitter sort of dances in the light but isn't over-the-top obnoxiously garish. So far (I've only had this a few days), the wear and crease resistance are good – typical of what I usually get with a Paint Pot. I'm actually thinking of maybe buying Dangerous Cuvee again….or maybe not!!!
I love this shade for everyday wear, the peachy gold colour is sheer but really beautiful. It's not the longest wearing paint pot I have (especially on my oily eyelids), but I really just love the colour on the eyes. I think it would be flattering on most skin tones.

I love this paint pot so much! At first I kind of thought it may be too warm-toned on my already warm skin tone, but this is one of my fave everyday shades to wear. It's so easy to apply; I like using the real techniques base shadow brush for application, and using the MAC 217 to blend any edges. It lasts all day at the office on my very oily eyelids, which is just the best quality about it. Amazing!

Vintage Selection makes for a great simple, everyday look. I like to use my fingers to apply this and to blend it. This applies very easily and lasts all day. It is also buildable, but I feel it looks and lasts best when just one layer is applied. I have had no problems with this drying out and I have had mine since it was released in the permanent collection. The product is also easily accessible in the pot, unlike brands like Bobbi Brown where I have to use a brush just to get the product out.
This particular pp color surprised me a little by how much shimmer it has in it. It's not terrible but I just didn't expect it. It applies well, but the shimmer can be a little more than desired, especially if you wanted to use this as just a wash of color on your lid (might vary depend on your skin tone). Worth having in your collection if you don't mind the shimmer. It applies better than some of the past pp (especially shimmer heavy options like Let's Skate). I didn't experience any fallout from the shimmer.
The long-wearing, highly pigmented eye color goes on creamy and dries to an intense, vibrant, pearlized finish. Seamlessly covers without weight or caking and blends smoothly over the lids. Cream-based, can be mixed with M·A·C shadows and liners.
