Two of my most memorable stories - when Hurricane Katrina came through, all of the Rapides Parish Bus Drivers drove down to New Orleans to help bring people to safety. Imagine 100 drivers, hugging, crying, and ready to go-it was my official breakdown moment. We also had a prisoner escape from the State Penitentiary in Pollack ... this was his 3rd escape from a prison, a local officer stopped him and then let him go. The prisoner is still missing to this day.

George Zimmerman's interview with Fox News has been entered into evidence by prosecutors.
In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity that aired Wednesday, Zimmerman said he was not pursuing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin the night the teen was fatally shot. Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in the teenager's death.
On Thursday state prosecutors filed notice with the court that statements made by Zimmerman during the interview are now part of their discovery evidence.
When asked to explain what he meant when he told a police dispatcher he was following Martin, Zimmerman said he was "going in the same direction as him so I could keep an eye on him so I could tell police where he was going."
The neighborhood watch volunteer claims he was defending himself when he shot and killed the unarmed Martin on Feb. 26 in a central Florida neighborhood.
His attorney says he agreed to the interview because he's hoping to receive donations to Zimmerman's defense fund.

GENERIC NAME: fluoxetine
BRAND NAME: Prozac, Sarafem, Prozac Weekly
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Fluoxetine is an oral drug that is used primarily for treating depression. It is in a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), a class that includes citalopram (Celexa), paroxetine (Paxil) and sertraline (Zoloft). Fluoxetine affects neurotransmitters, the chemicals that nerves within the brain use to communicate with each other. Neurotransmitters are manufactured and released by nerves and then travel and attach to nearby nerves. Thus, neurotransmitters can be thought of as the communication system of the brain. Serotonin is one neurotransmitter that is released by nerves in the brain. The serotonin either travels across the space between nerves and attaches to receptors on the surface of nearby nerves or it attaches to receptors on the surface of the nerve that produced it, to be taken up by the nerve and released again (a process referred to as re-uptake). Many experts believe that an imbalance among neurotransmitters is the cause of depression. Fluoxetine works by preventing the reuptake of one neurotransmitter, serotonin, by nerve cells after it has been released. Since uptake is an important mechanism for removing released neurotransmitters and terminating their actions on adjacent nerves, the reduced uptake caused by fluoxetine increases free serotonin that stimulates nerve cells in the brain. The FDA approved Fluoxetine in December 1987.
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes
PREPARATIONS: Capsules: 10, 20 and 40 mg. Capsules (delayed release): 90 mg. Tablets: 10, 20 and 60 mg. Oral suspension: 20 mg/5ml
STORAGE: Fluoxetine should be stored at room temperature 15 C to 30 C (59 F to 86 F).
PRESCRIBED FOR: Fluoxetine is used for treating depression, bulimia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). It also is used in combination with olanzapine (Zyprexa) for treatment of resistant depression and treatment of depression associated with bipolar disorder.
DOSING: Depression in adults is treated with 20-80 mg of fluoxetine daily. The recommended dose for treating depression in children is 10-20 mg daily. After 13 weeks of daily administration, 90 mg once weekly may be effective in some patients.
Bulimia is treated with 60 mg of fluoxetine daily. Long-term treatment for up to 52 weeks has been shown to be beneficial in maintaining remission.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder in adults and children is treated with 20-80 mg daily and panic disorder is managed with 10-60 mg daily.
The recommended regimen for premenstrual dysphoric disorder is 20 mg (maximum dose 80 mg) administered every day of the menstrual cycle or daily for 14 days prior to the onset of menstruation through the first day of menses.
The recommended treatment for treatment resistant depression is 20-50 mg of fluoxetine and 5-20 mg olanzapine once daily in the evening while the recommended treatment for depression associated with bipolar disorder is 20-50 mg fluoxetine and 5-12.5 mg olanzapine once daily in the evening.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Fluoxetine should not be taken with any of the monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) class of antidepressants (for example, isocarboxazid [Marplan], phenelzine [Nardil], tranylcypromine [Parnate], selegiline [Eldepryl], and procarbazine [Matulane]) or other drugs that inhibit monoamine oxidase such as linezolid [Zyvox] and intravenous methylene blue. Such combinations may lead to confusion, high blood pressure, tremor, hyperactivity, coma, and death. Fluoxetine should not be administered for at least 14 days after stopping MAOIs. Because fluoxetine is active in the body for several weeks, MAOIs should not be administered for at least 5 weeks (possibly longer after long term use of fluoxetine or if large doses were used) after fluoxetine has been stopped. Similar reactions occur when fluoxetine is combined with other drugs, for example, tryptophan, St. John's wort, meperidine (Demerol), lithium (Lithobid, Eskalith), triptans (for example, sumatriptan [Imitrex)]), and tramadol (Ultram) that increase serotonin in the brain.

The roar of high-powered engines will be ever-present at Lake Coeur d'Alene this Labor Day weekend, as The Diamond Cup and H1 Unlimited Hydroplane racing return to the north Idaho inland sea as the seventh stop on the H1 Hydroplane circuit.
According to diamondcuprace.com, the sanctioned race will be located along Coeur d'Alene's Lakeshore Drive in the Silver Beach area. The three-day event is expected to draw over 50,000 spectators.
Three types of boats will be on hand at The Diamond Cup: H1 Unlimited (unlimited), Grand Prix West Racing (1500 horsepower inboard big blocks), and Vintage (unlimited and limited 7 Litre Class).
It's been a while since The Diamond Cup was last held at Lake Coeur d'Alene -- 45 years, to be exact -- but hydroplanes have graced its glassy surface recently in smaller races with limited boats or demonstrations.
The two-mile track can withstand seven boats to run side-by-side, widest on the H1 Unlimited Circuit. Eight boats race in each heat.
Parents are encouraged to bring their young ones out to the event. The venue is expected to have "bouncy inflatables, games, face painting and more for younger children." The website adds that security is provided to ensure a safe environment.

Looking around Hollywood you'll notice that the biggest trend right now seems to be pixie cuts. Anne Hathaway, Miley Cyrus, Charlize Theron and many more. Here are some examples of the cutest pixie cuts on the red carpet.
Carey Mulligan sports a shaggy pixie that would work on just about anyone.
Michelle Williams is known for her adorable pixie. Her beautiful features are highlighted by her short hair.
Emma Watson shocked the world when she cut off her long curly Hermoine Granger locks, but the super short pixie made her appear so much more mature and beautiful.
Mia Wasikowska's shaggy pixie is a super easy cut for any busy woman to maintain. Simply finger style and go.
Ellen DeGeneres has always had short hair, but the best look she's ever rocked is the pixie. This cut works on young and old and with the simple style it's easy to manage.
Halle Berry would look weird with long hair at this point. She's the queen of the pixie and no one wears it better. Her beautiful skin and features are on display everyday thanks to her short hair. She's been known to go super short and longer shaggy pixie and either way works for an oval face.
Ginnifer Goodwin looks great with long hair and adorable with her short pixie cut. She can't go wrong. Her pixie style works well with her round face. It's neat, stylish and still feminine.
Pixie cuts are hot for 2013 if you've always thought about going short, but haven't had the guts. Go for it. There are so many different styles you're sure to find something to suit you. I did and I love it!

I didn't think you were being dismissive at all. You responded Changing the topic to geeky forum stuff is actually helpful. I need diversions I think.
Just a f/u to the post earlier about Rich. Tonight he filled me in more and the dr is treating him for now for tendonitis. She felt it is a repetitive motion injury, which of course he'd have sustained from work. He's supposed to make an appointment with an orthopedic dr, but of course he hasn't yet. He did tell his employer what the dr said, and all they replied with was, "let us know" I'm afraid that if the ortho confirms that or in any other way dx's it as a work related injury, Rich is going to have a hard time getting compensation from his work. They're just that way. And if they put up too many roadblocks, Rich won't pursue it.
On a different topic, tell me if I should be annoyed about this or not. I have two accounts that I ended up putting Rich's name on with mine just so he'd have access to them. A few years ago a mutual friend's husband died, and the wife had some difficulty getting the bank accounts switched to her name. Just from that we decided it would be easiest to have both our names on the accounts, even though I was the only one paying the bills, just in case. I didn't want Rich to have to mess with getting stuff switched over to his name or have trouble accessing money at a time like that.
He's decided recently (like last week) that he's going to be responsible and pay his own bills himself. At least his credit card and garbage bill. He opened a 3rd account in just his name. At first blush, I really don't care. It's his money, his account, and I certainly don't feel like I need access to it. He does give generously to help with the week-to-week expenses. But a small sliver of me (the one looking for trouble?) thinks about that entire conversation about why we added him to mine and I think...wtf? Tell me I'm being ridiculous about this.
I was thinking the same thing. Honestly though I think each person in a marriage should have their own account. I have 3 accounts that are only in my name and a joint account with DH for bills. He is my POD though so I don't have to worry about him having access to the accounts if I die before him (POD=payable on death). I have my mom secondary since she would get our kids if both DH and I die together and minors are not allowed to be beneficiaries of bank accounts unless it is a trust. See all my banking history is coming out...
I hope Rich fights for his workman's compensation if it is a work injury. He actually should have gone to the company's doctors so that they can detail his injury themselves. We have a lot of WC claims right now at my job and I handle them. I admit they are a PITA and I hate it when I get calls that someone injured themselves but I make sure to send them to the clinic and follow procedure. If they are due a claim, we make sure they get it as well. I just don't like the paperwork.
Your DBF sounds like my DH Bridget with the bravado. DH always has my back and I actually am afraid to tell him if someone is bothering me because he will go and find me and want to kick their a$$. He is really not violent either but he is very protective of me and the kids so I make sure only to tell him certain things that happen to me. He got up in a homeless guy's face one day who wouldn't leave me alone while I was pumping gas and I was afraid the police would get called since the homeless guy was very combative as well and DH was just POd about it. He thinks I'm just such a nice sweet person he says, and he doesn't want to see me get bothered. I joke with him that he wants to be the only person who bothers me LOL!
Chrissy forgot to say VA-VA-VA-VOOOOM!!! About your avatar. Very sexy! I want to be like you when I grow up!
As for protective DHs, we had an interesting discussion recently. When I had my HSG I remember asking him to come watch the procedure and he refused to go. He always refuses to - he wouldn't stay when the RE did my ultrasound/pap at the first appointment, either - but I remember when he was in the hospital with pneumonia he specifically asked me not to leave him alone with the doctors so I always find it a little odd that he won't go with me in the doctor's office. He told me recently that he doesn't think he could stand to watch anyone hurting me, even if it was the doctor and he knew it was for a good reason, because he didn't think he could control himself watching someone cause me pain. I can't decide if I think that's disturbing or sweet.

Aww, I think it's sweet.
Gwenn, I meant to ask you, I know you know mostly about children's speech, right? But I was wondering if you or any of you have thoughts on this.
Josh says he can't control a lot of his actions. Like he does this eye rolling thing (and I know he gets it from me, because I do that when I'm irritated, a lot) but he tells me he can't control it. Even a couple times I hadn't said anything that would cause eye rolling and he did it and said, frustrated, "Ugh! I can't control this eye rolling thing!"
Another thing he does is if he's supposedly really hungry or thirsty he'll make this horrid gagging noise and he'll say "If I don't eat/drink right now I'll cry!" and no matter how I try to console him (like if we are out and can't get him nourishment ASAP) he'll continue into more gagging and crying.
Thoughts? Is he being dramatic or is something else going on?
They don't come across like compulsions, like hand-washing, do they? It doesn't sound like it from the way you describe it.

So I'm feeling kind of like a bad wife today/tonight. I don't know if it's because we are STC or what, but it seems like I always have to be the one to initiate. And when I try to let DH know it's about that time in my cycle, he never seems to be prepared. I know a lot of men who are STC start to get performance anxiety and I think we've come to that but he doesn't talk about it. When he is out of town for a while and comes back, it's never an issue and he always enjoys himself but once we're back to regular BD it's like he wants me to prep him in advance or he isn't in the mood. Well, 2-3 nights ago he had a raging migraine and I knew not to even bother him but last night I "warned him" and he didn't say anything about it. I get self-conscious about having to always be the one to initiate, and I actually stayed up watching part of a movie on my ipad and mentally being annoyed with him for never being in the mood. I was making myself actually angry about it. At one point he got up and asked what I was doing, and I said I was watching a movie and it was almost over and then I'd come to bed. Anyway, I ended up coming to bed at like 12:45. When my alarm went off, DH was still in bed (which is unusual for him, he goes to bed and wakes up early). He complained that he didn't sleep at all last night and when I asked why, he said it was because he was waiting for me to come to bed so we could try. Meanwhile I was in the living room annoyed with him for not being in the mood. He was exhausted and ended up sleeping most of the morning after I went to work, and now he said his migraine is back so he went to bed already (at 8:00). He said he wasn't up to anything tonight because he feels so rotten but we would try tomorrow.
What is my problem? Part of it is DH doesn't put out a lot of signals, but I have to question why I was so annoyed with him while he was waiting for me in the bedroom. Then again, I have REALLY not been in the mood lately. I kind of think sometimes when he is not here it's sort of a relief to write a cycle off, not having to worry about whether or not I'm pg and just expect that AF will come. Once I BD, I start wondering and worrying about it. So maybe I'm sabotaging myself? Or maybe we're both sabotaging? Or maybe we're just completely incompatible. I have no idea. Somebody make me feel better about this. I know, TMI.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Second question - do you think anything he does is "ritualistic"? Like, for example, having to do things in a specific pattern every single time - like touching a tree every time you walk past it?

Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
You guys, my sister sent me her itinerary for the Mexico trip over Christmas, and she booked her stay at the wrong hotel!!!!!! We're all going - our whole family in one suite, my mom and my MIL in the suite next to ours, and my sister and my bil hemmed and hawed for a bit and finally decided to go along several weeks after we'd made our reservations. I thought they weren't going. My sister first said it's not really a traditional Christmas to be in Mexico (ha ha- not true for our family), and then she said it was too expensive, and said she'd get back to me. Well, one day she called me and said she'd made reservations to go as well. I was really surprised, and said I thought she wasn't going, and she should have talked to me about it, because she could have coordinated with me, and my travel agent could have helped her get the same plane flights or at least similar ones, and request a room near ours. It's a big resort.
Turns out she accidentally booked her room at the sister resort, which is a brief shuttle ride away from ours. She thinks her travel agency decided to randomly choose another hotel for her to stay at without her permission, but it seems obvious that since both hotels have the same name but different modifiers and she didn't know that there were two hotels, she probably just said the first part of the name and asked for the least expensive option or something like that. I had sent her the actual link to the hotel and everything, but she didn't use it and she never realized she booked for a different hotel. She is not secretly in favor of this the way I might be, either. She's already been pushing to plan for group dinners at the nice restaurants (to which I replied have you seen how many kids I have and how they tolerate sitting for meals?) and schedule our time together.
This is going to be yet another Christmas I've ruined and will hear about until I die, I just know it. DH is telling me to think of her as if she's a developmentally delayed child throwing a temper tantrum.
Since I found out about this, I've been in kind of a constantly elevated state of alert. Maybe a code orange threat level.
L, I think your DH's advice is a good idea. It seems like your sister expects your family to be something you are not, and that will only disappoint her. Too bad she can't celebrate the very special people you actually are, which is much more interesting and fun.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
I didn't always 'tell' DH when it was that time, I just pounced on him-all the while him thinking for no apparent reason! Really helps with the ego boost
Also, maybe a bit TMI, but morning BD was our friend. DH tends to be more sensitive in the a.m. and it's awesome when I wasn't really feeling like it, but knew we had too
Mandy, the scenarios you described between you and dh do not sound out of the ordinary to me. Not that dbf and I are the picture of a healthy relationship but we have nights like that. Particularly nights where we are both showered (our version of foreplay) and he is sitting in the recliner on his computer, appearing to be playing poker. So I bring my laptop to the couch and just dink around. When I finally fall asleep on the couch or get up to go to bed because I'm annoyed he's not joined me on the couch, turns out he's annoyed I got laptop and was "waiting for me to be done" so he could join me on the couch. It turns out we're both annoyed for the same reason. I think it just happens that way sometimes, especially if one or both have other stresses or issues (migraine). Then when you add the fact that you guys are stc, it's only natural that on occassion, the pressure builds up and sucks some of the spontaneity and fun out of it. I hope things are better today.
Lydia, I love your dh's advice. I am so sorry your sister might ruin this trip. Is there no possible way for her to change it now? I suppose not. Maybe put her name out there in case of a cancellation? Man, I would be so annoyed if I were you!
When dbf's mom was here she told him that she needed some work done on the other side of her duplex since her long time renters would be moving out. So the plan has been for him to go over and do the work for her. At that time she suggested he bring either Savana or Kai with. In line with my decision of keeping the peace during her visit, I just smiled and nodded as I did many times during her stay here. Now we're not sure that he will be able to do the work. He hurt his wrist pretty badly in the accident where our elderly neighbor slammed into the back of his truck a few months ago. He's been in physical therapy and now is scheduled for corrective surgury. He may try to do the work before the surgury, or now they are discussing him going over there afterwards to recupurate from the surgury. She is still saying he should bring Savana or Kai. I am just in turmoil over this because they are both going to want to go and we have to choose one. The one that does not get to go is going to be devastated! I'd like to say that we are not a family where everything has to "fair" because although we try, I do stress to my children that someone is always going to have something they don't and they are always going to have something that someone else does not. That is just a way of life and I don't want my kids growing up thinking that everything must always be equal. So "It's not fair" does not get anyone very far around here. But this is big. They both love their Oma, and their cousin lives there. We rarely see them and it's such a huge treat to travel. There is a part of me that feels really annoyed that he won't just bring both of them. They are such good kids I really don't think it would be that hard especially since his mom and sister will be right there. But no one has even suggested that possibility and when I mentioned it to him he was just astounded that I thought that would work. I'm just sick with worry over this because I'm really not looking forward to basically breaking one of their hearts over this.

Bridget, I would feel the same way and I would let them know that it is both or none. That is far too long and special of a trip for just one kid to go. It's one thing to be unfair, but this is really really really unfair to one kid.
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
L, I'm so sorry about the hotel fiasco!
Mandy, it must feel like a chore to "have to" have sex instead of just wanting to especially if you're not in the mood anyway. I agree maybe you shouldn't tell DH when it's that time in your cycle. Put on something that makes you feel sexy, maybe have a glass of wine or a nice aphrodisiac meal beforehand (oysters anyone?) and have some fun.
I confess DH and Josh went out early this morning to the mall to shop for me and I slept until 10:15. It didn't feel that late. I expected to look at the clock and see 8:30 or so.
In our house, Rich initiates 99% of the time. I almost never say no, even when we have issues going on. I swear I think that's what has kept us together because I do worry about whether I'd ever find someone else as 'into' me as he seems to be. 19+ years and still an average of 3-4 times a week. We slowed down to twice a week for a couple months this summer/fall when I was really feeling out of sorts with him, but that was the only lull I remember having. Maybe he doesn't love me at all...he's just in lust with my body.
Well Chrissy, I think we all agree you're hot. Is that a bad thing? LOL
Maybe that's our problem. I have zero interest lately (it's one of the things I went to the doctor for, and got a referral for an appt. next year)
It's definitely TMI but I have a lot of issues stemming from the spina bifida and it has definitely gotten worse over the years. It's very hard on DH because he equates sex with love and I just don't. I think the depression has a lot to do with it too. I have very low body image and self esteem lately. Why would I want to get naked for someone else when I can barely stand myself?
Kate, no wonder with SB issues and depression you aren't in the mood. I'm feeling the same way and I suspect it isn't just TTC-related blues, but my thyroid, too. I just don't feel good about myself and this sluggishness that seems to come on when my thyroid is out of whack is really something else. So I can relate.

Rated 4 out of 5�by 1 reviewer.
Rated 4 out of 5�by allo68 Meets expectations My husband was very attached to an old insulated bottle for his iced tea. This seems to meet his expectations, which is saying quite a lot. The only reason I did not rate it as "excellent" is that we have not had it long enough. July 2, 2014

Oy... 14... Boy/Girl, there all idiots to some extent and hormone controlled
Things are a little crazy, but I'm loving every minute of it My Blog
Either he's manipulative or deluded. Poor Syd!
I guess I know too many 14 year olds that would know just how wrong that is. I do hope you're right, and he'll shape up as he gets older. While people do have great capacity for change, some things are much harder to change than others. The spitefulness, it bothers me. Anyway, I hope that Syd isn't affected in any way.
No Chrissy, they didn't get the second guy yet. I had to go to a dr. appt in town this morning and he was running far behind schedule, I had Josh with me and the tv's were turned to the news, I just didn't feel like sitting there anymore so I rescheduled and we were going to go to lunch. On our way to lunch there were police cars rushing in the direction of the college and I got nervous and we went straight home. I had already known the college was on lockdown but seeing the police rushing there just made me nervous. As far as I know they didn't find anything there yet.
Oh, I kind of look back on those teenage days and laugh but I remember the agony of every feeling. Teenagers just seem to feel everything so much. Kind of like 6 year olds. LOL

That would be very scary. It was probably best you did just go home. Who knows where he is or what he's going to pull next.
Syd's actually handling everything really well. She's not overly upset, but just talking to me about what's going on. She knew the one that was trying to cause trouble wasn't a good friend. She was just surprised by it because he had been acting like one. We had a discussion about how often people can act great initially, but eventually their true colors shine through.
Oh, the teenage years were misery, start to finish. Poor Syd.
And Kate, glad you're okay!
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Those of you who use magic 123 do you think there is enough information online or is there something major in the book that I'd be missing? I mean is there much more to the process than counting to three and sending him to his room for 6 minutes?
I'm afraid I'm going to need another process for behavior that isn't necessarily bad, but just not listening...like when I tell him to go brush his teeth and put on his shoes, and he wanders off in the wrong direction, forgets what to do, whines about it, brushes his teeth half ass and refuses to tie his shoes...lol
Yesterday we were in the house all day and I understand it was a very trying day for both of us, but I told him I didn't want to take him to the movies because I wanted to stay in the house, and he said to me "I H Y" which meant "I hate you." (Good thing I'm good at acronyms, he didn't deny it but he wouldn't say what it meant either) I took away the ipad and the iphone for the whole weekend, told DH and what did DH let him do when he got up this morning? Go on the ipad.
I started thinking about what was a good sign of a marriage and how a partnership is so important and we just don't have that. I can't really count on him for anything anymore and he says he's just always stressed out because of his job which really isn't that awful, as far as I can see-yes I can see how corporate screws him over but dude, that happens a lot. He thinks it's insane that he has to drive 30 minutes to get to his first job (he works for cable) and I just think he's whining about an awful lot of stuff that's not so bad. I'm not doing it so I don't know exactly how hard it is for him but I think it sucks that he can't function in his home life because of his job. I keep thinking back on people who have truly stressful jobs like medical emergency, firefighters, police... and also have families to go home to. Somehow they make it work and this cable guy can't make it happen. It really pisses me off.

123 Magic does not encourage counting for behaviors you want to encourage that they're not doing, like some of the examples you just gave. The forgetfulness, wandering off in the wrong direction, not listening, taking a long time to get ready to leave or get ready for bed, etc. are not things to count. They give strategies for making positive behavior changes as opposed to counting and time outs. The counting is for specific behaviors you want to stop, like throwing things, slamming doors, etc. They emphasize a lot about not being emotional and not over-explaining.
I know there was some discussion about this earlier, and I tend to explain a lot, too. DH does as well. But when it comes right down to it, what I need to remember is that at the time they need to know that what they are doing needs to stop, and after a while, the main message gets lost if there is a lot of explanation. DH has pointed out to me (more than a handful of times) that R. stops paying attention to me after about two sentences, especially if I'm talking to him about something serious. So if I say, "That's 1 for slamming the door," I don't need to go on and say why they shouldn't do it or how their siblings have gotten their body parts hurt in rapidly closing doors before. They know why.
DH and the kids were having an interesting discussion about flapping wings and how a butterfly can stay up in the air despite having fixed wings -- wouldn't the wing flapping make it just go up and down equally instead of keeping it up in the air? Birds can tuck their wings on the upstroke. Claire said something to DH about how if he was a real scientist maybe he would know the answer. DH pretended to be shocked and said, "You're fired!" Claire collapsed into tears. He immediately apologized, and then she apologized to him. She said she knew he was joking, but she was just so surprised by his statement that she couldn't help but cry because it felt real. And she said that she somehow feels like paleontologists are the main kinds of scientists. It was so nice seeing them have this nice conversation after she was so upset, and I told Claire it was very grown-up of her to realize why she started crying and to be able to talk about it and apologize.
Kate, R. says "I L U" a lot, so I will dread the day that he says "I H U." In fact, a couple of weeks ago, I had some of the same things happen that you're describing. R. said "I L U" and I said "I love you too" and he said, "No Mom, I was talking to the cat, NOT to you!" Then I found out DH had been letting the kids watch tv when I wasn't around, and doing other things that felt like we just weren't on the same parenting page. On the other hand, I do think it's not really fair to say someone's not allowed to vent about a stressful job because other people have more stressful jobs or longer commutes. Service jobs can really suck. Commutes can be horrible. And any job can be miserable depending on the people you work with and the management or work environment. That's kind of like saying that people with one child aren't allowed to complain about parenting being difficult (my DH says that sometimes). If it's difficult, it's difficult. You will always find that someone's got it worse, and it might make your individual situation a little easier to bear or might give you a little perspective, but it doesn't mean that there is no stress.
I've been working the past three days so I haven't had a lot of time to post and Claire is calling me to come cuddle with her, but Suja, I'm hoping it's just allergies. I'm sorry you're going through this.
Yeah, what L said. I'm always saying at work that no small child is going to die if we don't do x, y, z, but I can promise you the @ssholes I work with act like that's the scenario. It is indeed the most stressful job I've ever had, and I worked for urgent care before. So what he does doesn't really reflect how stressful his job is. Any time you deal with the public, that's hard...and corporate bs always brings moral down. Who wants to put forth their best effort when they're constantly getting jerked around? Have you talked to him about doing something else? I wouldn't think that it would be too much of a leap for him to work as a network technician...maybe he should just peruse the web sites and see if any area colleges or universities are hiring. Just because my current position sucks arse at a university doesn't mean they all do. It's definitely the dept.
I am one of those that has nothing left most nights when I get home. I literally lay on the couch and I HAVE to nap. I mean, I HAVE to. It wears me out that much, 2-3 days a week. And I'm not a lazy person. Work stress is completely exhausting. It's debilitating, and if left unchecked can lead to serious medical issues like heart disease and stroke.
Claire is so mature! That is a really cool conversation. I think Savana would have some great talks with your dh. She loves talking about that kinds of stuff. I am more into science now than I ever was because of her but I will admit that many of her questions I have to look up the answers to because I didn't pay attention in school.
Kate, I think I see where you are coming from. I get that way a bit about dbf and too and it's not that I think he doesn't have a right to complain. It's just that I feel like he wallows in it sometimes and I really think, outside of exceptional situations, that we can choose to be happy or miserable. I know I can't change who he is but I do wish that he would not always focus on the negatives and it's REALLY hard for me to hold my tongue when he talks about how hard he works because I know he gets a lot of down time and I get so very little. But I don't think he really sees what I do as a real "job". So when he complains to me that he has to work all afternoon and I know the reality is that he has to make 10 phone calls, I have to dig deep for empathy.
This morning I had a tearful exchange with the mom of the children I've been caring for. We just found out that the state is only going to reimburse (and same for future hours) only 1/2 of my hourly rate. When she had them at a center they covered 100% of her childcare but they don't do the same for home daycares, and even less since I gave up my license and went for certification. Neither of us realized it would be that much. So she basically owes me a lot of money that she doesn't have and I was supposed to have all 3 kids this summer and there is no way she can afford that. We are both heartbroken about it. I feel the worst about the 9 year old girl who is here in the mornings before school and talks to me all the time about the things she wants to do here this summer (crafts and cooking and such). So much that I think I may try to cram most of her ideas into the remaining mornings that she is here. It's a tough call on that note too because I really love these kids and don't want them to get shuffled around again. They've had a crap life lately with dad and jail and boyfriend leaving recently. I want to just let them stay until school is out but I'll really be taking a hit financially if she can't pay the difference.
Me either. It's the same here.
I meant to say a lot more in that post but lost track of time and we had to run to a thing at the library. Bridget I'm sorry about those kids It always seems like the ones who enjoy it and need it most get screwed.
Thanks for the advice re: discipline and DH. I know I've been rather *****y about everything lately and I think I am just near the end of my rope with a lot of things. I'm hoping for a fresh start with 123 Magic and I do understand the concept of using it to deter bad behavior. I had a couple questions but found my answers on some websites. As for DH I've talked to him before about refreshing himself somehow before he gets home, trying to leave stuff behind him, not by keeping it inside but putting it behind him and talking to me about it later when Josh goes to bed or something. None of it sticks so I'm going to try to change my ways and if he doesn't want to try and he just uses excuses then I feel sorry for him. Trouble is I also feel sorry for Josh. It's gotten so bad lately that I've been considering looking for another father figure for him. Thought about asking some people from church if I can borrow their husbands sometimes. There are some who seem to actually enjoy being with their kids.
Man, Kate. That sucks. I wish I didn't completely understand but I feel like dbf is exactly the same as your dh. And to have my dad tell me how obvious it is was a gut wrenching confirmation.
Gosh, Kate that must be so frustrating. I feel for your DH and perhaps can relate to his sense of burden, because I sometimes feel like it's all on me too, and don't feel I have as much leeway to make changes to unbearable work situations as my DH does. At the same time, though, it's not cool to use the stress as an excuse to check out of your family life. I think if something is really that unbearable, then you have to at least have the intention to make a change, and make whatever strides you can to get away from whatever's making you miserable, even if it's tiny steps like doing stress management techniques while brainstorming what else you could do in place if the current situation.
Bridget, I'm so sorry you both got the bad news. It must have been a draining conversation. Is there anything the mom could use as trade with you in place of the money?
We went here today: http://fitzgeraldreserve.org/, because some friends with a son the same age as DS contacted us this morning and wanted to drive down to our neck of the woods and spend a day at the beach. Anyway, it always happens that when it's hot and summery 20 miles inland, friends expect it to be the same here. And while it is beautifully sunny today, the wind is blowing cold air off the water, making it shivery cold on the sand. So our friends showed up in shirts and tees, and probably didn't get the beach day they'd hoped for. The wife is 8 months pregnant, so I applaud her for even making the trek. I really enjoyed it because I never seem to remember to go to this place when the tide is low, and today we hit the tide pools just right, and B got to see anemones, starfish and loads of crabs. There was also a harbor seal nursery, so we got to observe a bunch of adorable baby seals from a distance.
My funny anecdote for the day is that, as I was talking to a volunteer marine biologist, a paper bag came blowing down the beach. He tried to catch it, but missed. It being Earth Day and all, I decided to chase after it, not realizing that the wind was strong enough for it to send me SPRINTING a quarter mile after it. I must have looked so conspicuous because first of all, I chased it across a coned-off area, with loads of bystanders behind the line trying to look at the seals. I overheard DH say, "Hey, where's mommy going? Look at her go!" to our son. I was sprinting at a breakneck pace hundreds of yards, but knew I may have to abandon the chase if I got too close to the seals. Luckily, the bag got stuck in some rocks, and I caught up to it. The whole crowd of people who'd been watching me chase the bag cheered for me as I retrieved it. It was embarrassing AND kind of cool to have them clap for me like that.
The whole thing could have ended there, but the wind was still whipping, and I had the bright/dumb idea to put a rock in the bag to make it too heavy to fly away as I walked back to my friends & family. So as I was trying to make a hole big enough for a rock big enough to weigh the bag down, the wind caught it AGAIN and it tore off down the beach again, leaving me no choice to tear off after it. And now the same people who were clapping and singing my praises were now *laughing and pointing* at me for being the goofball sprinting after the same paper bag she'd fought so hard to wrangle only moments before. At a certain point, I actually tried to chuck the rock that was still in my hand, thinking my aim was actually good enough to snare the bag with it. LOL. Anyway, I ultimately caught it on some other rocks another hundred yards away. I think I got my exercise for the day. Or maybe I was just flushed from blushing so hard.
The marine biologist told Steve there's usually no hope of catching a flying piece of litter when the wind's up like that. And he'd tried to warn me as I first ran off after it.
So Happy Earth Day, everyone!
Oh, Myles. I am shaking with laughter right now. I freaking love you.
Myles, you're a riot! Love you!

In Shambhala, thousands of meditation evenings, public talks, conferences and programs of varying
lengths are offered each year throughout our international network of centres
and groups. This constant
stream of teaching, practice, study and innovation takes place largely through the devoted efforts
of volunteers. This web of activity serves as an integral part of spiritual training as there is
no fundamental separation between the sacred and secular within Shambhala
vision. Everything can be used
as the training ground for taming the mind and creating enlightened society. In this spirit, Shambhala embraces a rich array of projects
and activities.
The Nalanda Translation
Committee supports the practice and study of the Buddhist and Shambhala teachings by creating authentic
translations of Tibetan practice texts and commentaries in English and other Western languages. By
publishing these texts the Nalanda Translation Committee ensures quality and consistency, teaching
and transmition of practices, and increasing the students' understanding of their significance and
cultural background.
The Shambhala Archives is the repository for one of the largest audio-visual collections of lectures and oral discourses by Tibetan Buddhist teachers in the West. The Archives cares for all records related to the life and teachings of Chögyam Trungpa, Osel Tendzin, and Sakyong Mipham, as well as thousands of tapes by other prominent contemplative teachers.
The ALIA Institute is a vibrant meeting-place of people, practices, and ideas engaged at the frontier of organizational and societal change. ALIA programs are known for their unique blend of ancient and leading-edge theory, practices, and principles. Since 2001, ALIA's Shambhala Summer Institute has attracted 250 people to Nova Scotia, Canada each June and has become internationally known as a premier leadership development venue.
Dramatically transforming the landscape of Shambhala Mountain Center, The Great
Stupa of Dharmakaya is an expression of the aspiration for peace, harmony and equanimity for all beings. Rising 108 feet
from its foundation, construction of The Great Stupa was initiated in 1988 and the monument was consecrated
in August 2001.
The Shambhala Trust is an independent group of individuals from throughout the Shambhala community who pool their resources, experience, and inspiration to provide financial and/or consultative support to Shambhala-related projects worldwide. Trust members individually and collectively explore the practice of generosity from the Buddhist and Shambhala points of view.
Established by Sakyong, Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche in 2006, The Sakyong Foundation was formed to provide support to organizations and projects throughout the world whose activities are aligned with the vision of Shambhala - a legendary enlightened society founded on the premise that there is basic human wisdom that can help to solve the world's problems.
The Foundation is organized as a public charity and acts to match the inspiration and generosity of our donors with projects they wish to support. One of the Foundation's goals is to build Shambhala's financial sustainability by creating endowments where contributions become a legacy that is protected and a portion of investment profits are used to make grants.
The Dana Group was formed after the recent Shambhala Congress to pool the experience and advice of people with professional fund-raising experience. The group, which is not a donor group, aims to stimulate creative thinking about how best to strengthen the funding of the mandala as a whole in order to support further the creation of enlightened society.Read the Dana Group's newsletter
Vajra Dawn is a program to further empower and provide teachings for the upcoming generation of students
in the Shambhala community. Meant primarily for 18-30 year olds, this celebration usually draws 150-200
people from around the world for teachings by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche on a variety of themes from our rich heritage of meditation
and compassion practices. Participants are encouraged to applying these principles in their daily life
through school, work, relationships, social action, and more.
Active commitment to benefiting others is the natural expression of
meditation practice. It is the inheritance of the teachings offered by
Shambhala. You are invited to explore the Social Service Network, and the
many endeavours of individuals and groups in Shambhala, who are engaged in
compassionate work in the world. These pages offer shared opportunities and
projects to inspire individuals in offering social service.
Social Service Network
Dorje Kasung is modelled on the ancient tradition of dharma protectors. Its members are trained in
protecting the space in which practitioners are able to hear and practice the teachings. The protection
extends to the teacher who presents the teachings, the teachings themselves, and the community who
practice the teachings.
The Shambhala Congress is a major gathering of the Shambhala community, open to any member. Its purpose
is to explore major issues of concern and provide a forum for direct discussion between representatives
of the entire community and the Sakyong, President and other leaders of the mandala. Major proposals
arising from the working groups formed at previous congresses are discussed, and space is kept open
for on-the-spot exploration of any themes that arise.

Founding by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche in 1974, Naropa University is the first of its kind as a Buddhist-inspired university in North America that integrates ancient traditions of wisdom into the curriculum of modern education. Named after the Indian Buddhist mystic and scholar Naropa, it is a non-sectarian liberal arts institution dedicated to advancing contemplative education. Contemplative education is an approach to learning that integrates the best of Eastern and Western educational traditions, helping students know themselves more deeply and engage constructively with others. True learning, as it is understood and practiced at Naropa, comes from a combination of study and practice; it is both academic and experiential; it engages both intellect and intuition.

Mukpo Institute is offered in the Fall and Spring seasons. Students are welcome to join for just one semester or both.

Tail of the Tiger programs bring together meditation with secular disciplines such as the arts, music, dance, theater, yoga, chi kung, business, social engagement, family and leadership.

Joining creativity and practicality is the inspiration for Tail of the Tiger.
Shambhala Sun Camp is an annual gathering for children ages 10 – 16. Campers create and live in their own outdoor environment. Simplicity is the ground for experiencing daily life as open space.

The Five Wisdoms Institute is an independent training organization that promotes the five wisdom energies teachings. As qualities of being fully human the five wisdoms cultivate personal integration and foster wisdom.
They provide a common language to engage in genuine relationships, skillful communication and creative thinking.

Based on those teachings, the institute offers Five Wisdoms @ Work, a two-year training oriented to
professionals in the service of others. Five Wisdoms Trainer and Coach Training provides the institute¹s certification to work professionally. For further information, please visit www.FiveWisdomsInstitute.com
The mission of the Konchok Foundation is to help meet the spiritual, cultural, educational and humanitarian needs of the Tibetan people in Surmang and elsewhere in the Kham and Golok regions of eastern Tibet. Currently, the focus is to provide financial and other support for the rebuilding of Surmang, the historic home of the Trungpa Tulku's, especially the Surmang shedra (envisioned as a school for monks and laity).
The Gesar Fund is a European foundation within the Shambhala Mandala, registered in the Netherlands. It supports medical and educational projects as well as poverty relief in Kham (Yushu Prefecture) and Golok. The Gesar Fund focuses on these areas because of the historical and actual connection that Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche have with these areas. Its educational project is carried out in Surmang (Kham) in close cooperation with the Könchok Foundation. Its health projects - fighting tubercuosis and hepatitis - are carried out in cooperation with two local hospitals in Chindu (Kham). At present the Gesar Fund focusses on earthquake relief as well. The name of the foundation expresses the Shambhalian notion that promoting enlightened society includes promoting health, education and prosperity, just as the legendary king of Tibet, Gesar of Ling, did many centuries ago.
Surmang provides a window into rural Tibetan life. It is not only one of the poorest regions in China; it is also one of the poorest in the world. The Surmang Foundation supports the acute needs of poor Tibetans in the remote Surmang region by providing free health care. The project is based at the home monastery of the Trungpa incarnation line, Surmang Dutsi Til. In the past 10 years, Surmang Foundation has treated over 60,000 patients.

a comprehensive virtual archive and learning community, and to create the financial base for current
and future generations to support this mission. Through this process, the Legacy Project will enhance,
enrich, and further inspire existing institutions and other manifestations of the Shambhala world that
Chögyam Trungpa created.
The Chronicle Project is a repository for a rich array of stories, interviews, travelogs, and features

residential retreats and opportunities for community practice and study.
