"Competency-based education (CBE) awards academic credit based on mastery of clearly defined competencies. CBE replaces the conventional model in which time is fixed and learning is variable with a model in which the time is variable and the learning is fixed.
CBE is built around clearly defined competencies and measurable learning objectives that demonstrate mastery of those competencies. Measuring learning by competency is not new, but various challenges facing higher education, combined with new models and technologies, have brought a new focus on CBE.
A growing number of competency-based programs have been developed at all levels of instruction. CBE capitalizes on the potential of online learning, enabling new models that can reduce both the cost and time needed to earn credentials while better preparing students for their professional lives."

Great poetry can be the kind of art that stays with you forever, be it Mid-Term Break by Seamus Heaney or Daffodils by William Wordsworth. However, given the old-school nature of poetry means that a lot of students will need a great introduction from a teacher. James Harlan discusses some cool ideas for getting students into the artform.

awk can clear the screen while displaying output. This is a handy way of seeing how many lines a tail -f has hit or see how many files find has found. On solaris, you may have to use 'nawk' and your machine needs 'tput'
A variation of a script I found on this site and then slimmed down to just use awk. It displays all users who have attempted to login to the box and failed using SSH. Pipe it to the sort command to see which usernames have the most failed logins.
This command adds the numbers 10, 12, 14 to a bunch of mp3's in the current working directory. You can then run the command replacing the inital i=10 with i=11 to add 11,13,15 in another directory then mv the files together and the first files interweave with the second group of files. I used this to weave a backlog of a podcast with other podcast so I didn't get sick of one while I was catching up. I started at 10 because printf blows up with 0 padded numbers 08 and 09 which kind of makes the printf command redundant as it was used to pad numbers 1 - 9 so they would come first and not get sorted incorrectly
Displays six rows and five columns of random numbers between 0 and 1. If you need only one column, you can dispense with the "for" loop.
Show the number of failed tries of login per account. If the user does not exist it is marked with *.
works the same as R's t()
Old snapshots can cause problems. It's best to remove them when finished. I use this script to remove all snapshots. The "while read" command is necessary because my vm names contain spaces. The "time" command reports how long the process runs.
Sometimes, in a shell script, you need a random number bigger than the range of $RANDOM. This will print a random number made of four hex values extracted from /dev/urandom.

Check out Brittany and her AWESOME DIY Handpainted Earrings! I'm all about handmade or designed jewelry and this looks like it would cost a fortune but instead, it is very inexpensive. What a great gift idea for your friends this year!
Artisan Earrings
- Foam sponges (at least 3)
- Charms
- Earring hooks (These are kidney shaped)
- Acrylic Paint -- Enamel is great, but any acrylic will work Also if doing them all one color you can use spray paint too!
- Black Acrylic Paint
- A Mixing Glaze (I had the Valspar glaze ($15) on hand from furniture refinishes, but you can also find smaller versions at local craft stores)
- Polyacrylic to seal <Not pictured>
Step 3: Let paint dry, if using enamel paint they looked great at this stage and really if you are using enamel paint you could leave them like this.
I love them all!! Do you have a favorite? They were so inexpensive, they are light weight, original and beautiful!! Thanks again to my beautiful sister in law for letting me take her picture with every color!
Love this!

This weekend, Detroit police Chief James Craig is expected to urge residents to stand up and take back city streets.Craig's is hosting Detroit Police Department's first-ever "Chief's Call To Action." The event is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Triumph Church on East Grand Blvd.Officers will provide information on how to start block clubs and neighborhood citizen patrols, hoping to revitalize the city that has one of the nation's highest violent-crime rates. Last year, Detroit recorded 386 criminal homicides, a 12 percent increase over 2011. VanDyke Liquor Market owner, Steve Bahoura, has resorted to sleeping in his store after, he says, it has been broken into multiple times. The latest break in happened earlier this week. Surveillance video shows the suspect hooked up a vehicle to the back door, drove forward and pulled the door with him right off the hinges. "If a thief wants to come, he will come. They don't care," Bahoura tells Fox 2's Robin Schawrtz. "We just have to get engaged. We can't just sit back and watch the news and not do anything. It's just too personal. Crime is too personal," Rev. and radio talk show host Angelo Henderson says. He will join Craig and other church leaders Saturday at the event, working to get the community engaged and excited to take back the city. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

FATCA implications in the Middle East
FATCA and its implications
Since its enactment in U.S. tax law in March 2010, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) has generated significant controversy amongst financial institutions across the globe. However, despite repeated calls for its repeal, financial institutions everywhere are having to accept the inevitable: FATCA is here to stay.
Deloitte Middle East podcast series interviews Brandon George, senior manager in Deloitte Middle East Tax advisory services practice, on FATCA and its implications:
- With the enactment of FATCA, institutions are seeking to become deemed compliant. Is this something every financial institution should do?
- When will the detailed regulations be issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the U.S. Treasury?
- What are institutions around the world doing with their US customers?
- What are the Middle East regulators (such as the Central Banks) currently doing with respect to FATCA?

Detroit City Councilman James Tate presented a plan Thursday that would bring livestock to the city to fight blight by eating the overgrown grass across several lots, if approved by City Council. Residents in Detroit shared their approval of the plan at the meeting.Riet Shumack lives in Brightmoor, the neighborhood that initially approached Tate with the idea, and believes this "prescribed grazing" will eliminate the city's unsightly landscaping and provide other opportunities for residents. "There's value-added products, like meats and wool, and all kinds of other things ... soap," Shumack tells Fox 2's Alexis Wiley. Thursday Laura DeYoung of Urban Shepherds spoke to City Council on behalf of Tate's proposal. "Basically all you have to do is give [the animals] water and mineral and move them around from portion to portion of your grazing area, and, that's easy," DeYoung says. Councilman Ken Cockrel said after the presentation: "I think the issue is worth exploring. So I look at it with an open mind."But Councilwoman Joanne Watson wasn't as receptive to the idea, questioning security for the animals and pointing out the fact no cities have officially adopted the plan. Councilman Tate still plans to move forward and is working on an ordinance that will change zoning requirements so residents could choose urban grazing if they choose to. "What's right for Brightmoor may not be right for other neighborhoods," Tate adds. The ordinance is still being drafter and it could take months before it reaches the City Council's table.

I used the product to hold a kindle. and it worked great at first. Then the vecro part wore out. It wont stand up, it flops the kindle out. It is totally worthless. I would NOT recommend this to anyone. It lasted about three months. Stay away from this product.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I bought this product December 26th, and use this product mostly as a stand to watch how to videos on my tablet while I do various crafts. It was useful as I tried learning to make costumes until on of the elastice supports snapped and dropped my tablet. Luckily the tablet didn't break, but the case itself lasted all of two days. It is currently a Saturday, December 28th, so I cannot contact customer support until Monday. I will update this review after I get a hold of customer support, and see how they intend to fix this problem.

Today was like a trip back in time. I was back at Portage West Middle School for the first time since 2007. This was the last time I ran the Open Race in the Portage Invitational and 2006 was the last time I ran this course as a runner for Gull Lake high school.
I usually didn't get the chance to run this race because normally the same day as the Campus Classic 5K and I have to go back to Western and run in that race, but this year they were on different weekends.
I arrived around 7:00 am when it was still dark out. After I gathered my gear and made a pit stop, I started warming up for the race touring the course and re-familiarizing myself with it. Then I began stretching and I ran into my friend Stephanie who I used to run with at Gull Lake. I also saw Brandon before my race.
After we stretched we headed down to the start line and waited for them to sound the gun. When they did, I was caught off guard and started a couple of seconds behind. I got out at a solid pace and headed up the biggest hill on the course about a 1/4 mile into the course. I followed the pack and we were passing each other back and forth. There were a couple of more hills and then we headed through the woods to where the first mile was at the exit to the woods. I was at 6:14 after the first mile and just a couple of seconds behind Brandon.
The crowd support was phenomenal. People were out cheering us on all over the course along with other cross country teams waiting to take the course later in the day. After we headed around the outside perimeter, we headed around the course again for the second time.
My pace was beginning to slow at this time after I got up the big hill for the second time. This was still due to the lack of hard workouts I had put in at the end of this season. There were times I had to slow my pace around tight portions of the course when I wanted to pass other runners. My second mile time was 6:54.
The last mile was a little slower, but not bad. I couldn't quite catch Brandon and the ending at Portage is a long stretch to the finish. Brandon finished 10 seconds in front of me and I ran 20:47. I was hoping to beat my all time best at Portage which was a 20:45 back in 2005, but that is a goal I can work toward for next year.
It was a great morning to run, cloudy, not windy, and a little humid, but not bad. It was certainly a nostalgic day and I hope I can come back next year if the Campus Classic doesn't fall on the same day.

Hi Carol,ReplyDelete
When I was in Monaco and environs a year ago, I saw lots of thin French women and most of them smoked.
Amongst all these smoking thin women I never saw anyone with good skin. They all looked old before their time.
Smoking takes the oxygen right out of your skin.
C'est dommage.
- Shelley2:58 PM
I found your delightfully delicious blog a few weeks ago and have been gobbling down huge swaths every day. So sign me up for the SR regimen!ReplyDelete
Loved your diet hints. Striated foods are definitely calorie-free. As are all foods arranged in stripes-- including trifles, seven-layer cakes, and genoise. Peer down at just the right angle at spaghetti: heck, it's just a bunch of stripes, too.
In my new stripey obsession, happily induced by you, I discovered a plate called the Sagaform Striped Side Plate. Its stripes are almost almost in Sonia Rykiel colors and widths. It goes without saying that if you heap any food in any amount on such a plate-- well, it will be just like eating air.
Congrats again on your wonderful writing and pictures,
WELCOME SHELLEY!ReplyDelete
How perceptive of you to see stripes in cakes and spagetti!
I do think if food is visually pretty it helps A LOT to feed the hungry soul...
Merci beaucoup Shelley!
you are so funny!ReplyDelete
the stripe and pencil diet!
I can't help observing that Sonia looks like a stripe herself! A very thin, waifish stripe. You mon chere will look MUCH better in the new SR duds!ReplyDelete
This is a fun post. Will this be a fashion show of sorts? I love the drawings of the clothes. Oh and this IS the time to get off that excess we gain during winter. No matter whose line you buy... groan.ReplyDelete
I love your blog.ReplyDelete
It makes me dream.......
Thank you very much!
You are my Paris Guru!!
kind regards
Carol I just LOVE your blog and your art work of Paris and all of it's goodies! You transport me right there. Sonia Rykiel is fab, a few years ago I was OBSESSED with one of her studded leather bags. if she ever does one for H+M I will be right at the front of the queue. Loving all your 'shopping ticks' you are my kind of shopper lol :-) xReplyDelete
Fantastic post! Really made me grin.ReplyDelete
I went to Paris for the second time ever last week, and fell so much in love with it again. It really is the most lovely city. Well done on getting your ticket again.
Love your blog as much as I love Paris itself, adore your paintings.
Thanks for making my day with your posts!

(Anchorage, Seward, Talkeetna, Denali National Park and Preserve, Fairbanks)
As your train whisks you deep into the Alaskan wilderness, keep your camera at the ready to capture brown bears playing on river sand banks, migrating caribou on their annual pilgrimage, and humpback whales breeching in glacial waters.
Explore the historic sites of Anchorage and soak in views of the surrounding mountains, glacial lakes and vast forests before boarding your scenic train on the round trip to Sward. Relax as you travel through the beautiful fjords and coastal landscape of Kenai Fjords National Park, and pause to spot orca and humpback whales, sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters and puffins at Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. Elsewhere, your train will whisk you through the dense forests that line the banks of the Eagle, Knik and Matanuska Rivers where moose, bear and the occasional wolf congregate, and on to the Danali National Park where you'll view black and brown bears in the shadows of soaring Mt. Kinley. As your train climbs toward the tree line and lumbers across the longest bridge on the railroad, keep watch for migrating caribou while you continue on to Healy Canyon where the surging waters of Nenana River cuts through the steep cliffs.
This excellent tour suits people of all ages and fitness levels as panoramic train journeys carry you into the heart of wild Alaska in complete comfort and without the need for physically-taxing hikes. Your experienced team of English-speaking private guides will help you spot Alaska's abundant native wildlife in its natural habitat, and relate engaging stories about the history and rich culture of this remarkable land.

Anchorage is headquarters to the Alaska Railroad and the journey to Talkeetna begins here. Several miles into the trip, the heavy birch forests of Eagle River and Chugiak lead to the Knik and Matanuska Rivers. The expansive watershed harbors wildlife like moose, bear, the occasional wolf and abundant waterfowl. About 40 miles from Anchorage comes the Matanuska Valley, Alaska's agricultural center and home to the towns of Palmer and Wasilla. Just south of Talkeetna, 70 miles further, the first view emerges of Mt. McKinley, North America's highest peak. The train makes its stop in Talkeetna, a small town with a mining history and now, a popular takeoff point for climbers to Mt. McKinley.
This scenic 2-hour tour aboard the 51-passenger Talkeetna Queen will give you the opportunity to experience wildlife, folklore and historical artifacts. Conditions permitting, enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of Mt. McKinley and the Alaska Range. Along the way, look for bald eagles, beavers, or moose. During your tour, you'll stop at a wildnerness site where you will take a leisurely 1/4 mile nature walk and visit an authentic trapper's cabin with its original furnishings, offering insight into how trappers lived in "Bush" Alaska at the turn of the century. You will also visit a replicated Native Alaskan encampment to learn about the indigenous culture.
From Talkeetna, the Denali Star Train follows the serpentine banks of the Susitna River. On clear days, more views of Mt. McKinley emerge across the river presenting many chances for photos. Black and brown bear frequent the sandbars and scuttle into the brush as the train approaches. Next, the Indian River Canyon is home to many beavers and beaver lodges can be seen in the ponds along the way. The track climbs toward tree line, first crossing Hurricane Gulch, the longest bridge on the railroad. The train moves into Broad Pass, at 2,363 feet it's the highest point on the railroad, and where caribou migrate through during the fall. Thousands of travelers visit Denali National Park and Preserve to see wildlife like wolves, caribou, Dall sheep, moose and bear, and Mt. McKinley.
Departing from your designated Denali park entrance hotel, this narrated bus tour takes you through the pristine wilderness of Denali. The experienced naturalist driver-guide will provide an overview of the land and its wildlife as you travel approximately 53 miles on the park road. Along the way, stops will be made at scenic overlooks and for viewing wildlife, such as bears, caribou and moose. A boxed snack and bottled water will be provided on your tour.Please note, depending on weather and road conditions, this tour averages between 6-8 hours June-August, and shorter in May and September.
From Denali, the Denali Star Train follows the route to the coal-mining town of Healy follows after a 10-mile jaunt through Healy canyon, where the surging waters of the Nenana River cuts through the steep-sided cliffs. As the track levels out, Nenana comes into view. It is home to one of the remaining original Alaska Railroad Depots, now a museum and gift shop. The track cuts through the northern boreal forests of interior Alaska. Birch, aspen and willow fill this landscape where gold miners first came to seek their fortunes. Fifty-eight miles from Nenana, Fairbanks, the "Golden Heart City" signals the end of the line - but just the beginning for more adventure, culture and history in the Last Frontier.

Police need your help finding a young man wanted in connection to a robbery and assault on Bowling Green High School students at the end of September.
A robbery warrant has been issued for the arrest of Rashaad Le Andre Chatman.
Chatman is wanted in connection to the Sept. 29 robbery of four BGHS students in the 200 Block of South Prospect Street. During the robbery, approximately seven to 10 subjects approached, assaulted and robbed the boys as they walked down the street. After the robbery, the suspects fled in two vehicles.
Later, a third stolen vehicle - believed to have been taken from the same area and time of the robbery - was involved in a crash on the High Level Bridge in Toledo.
Three juvenile suspects were arrested at that time. However, the investigation into this incident is ongoing.
Chatman is described as an 18-year-old black male, standing 5'7", weighing 100 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. His last known address is on Brighton Avenue in south Toledo.
If you know the whereabouts of Chatman or have more information about the robbery, contact the Bowling Green Police Division at 419-352-2571 or call 911.

Half the time, I get frustrated with Ikea-style fasteners and just whip out the old power tools to put thijgs together.
Half the time, I get frustrated with Ikea-style fasteners and just whip out the old power tools to put thijgs together.
Girls that use power tools are hot
I'd probably make a mess of things and ruin it. I have to follow the directions to a T and I always think "this ain't right, there's no way this goes like this..." but I know me, so I follow the directions anyway. And they're almost always right. I have no judgement!!
Work rant--my boss's boss, Frank, emailed me at 11:16 asking if I could set up a sit/stand desk between 11:15-12:30, 2-2:30, or 3:30-5 today. I've already overbooked myself and am working on 3 computers simultaneously-two of which I've promised to have done by 4:30. One of the computers needs the ID Finder scan done, which Frank has harped on us about 'picking up the slack' on repeatedly in recent weeks. I wrote back and told him I really couldn't do it today, that Thursday would be better but that my schedule fills up quickly due to the amount of new computers we have coming in right now. I left out how I still have 15 users to complete the ID Finder scans on, but he should already know that.
He can't tell me he didn't know this freaking thing was coming in. And another vent-I'm supposed to be his back-up. I thought that meant I'd get called when someones computer melted down and Frank was unavailable, not to set up furniture that had been ordered weeks before!! AND (final vent)...I've never even seen one, much less set one up. I don't know the first thing about putting one together and it could easily take me all day!
I love alan wrenches!! They are actually my favorite part of putting the furniture together. I get amazed at those little things. I actually have about 50 of them in my personal tool box. I always joke with DH when we are assembling furniture/shelves that I am really good at screwing things. He always agrees with a funny grin.
I didn't do much but the basics. Changed oil, filter, spark plugs, other miscellaneous easy stuff. I guess repair is kind of a misnomer. Maintenance is what I really meant. My boyfriend at the time showed me how. We spent hours in his warehouse working on our bikes, playing guitar, staying up late. I'm so glad I didn't marry him. I taught my dh how to ride a bike.
Lydia you get cooler by the minute. Biker chick turned supermom. HOT.
So, is it every mom or mil's official duty to constantly worry that the breastfed baby is not getting enough to eat? I just feel like I hear a lot of woman complain about that. Since I am not doing purees for Sawyer and just giving him food to gnaw on and become familiar with things at his own pace, dbf mom always thinks that he is hungry! She's like, "Look at him grab at your food! He's starving!" He is the happiest baby ever! If he was hungry we would all know. He grabs at my sewing scissors and cell phone with the same gusto he grabs at my sandwich!
But all that said, she is being so helpful to me. I still have that baby for one more week and had three boys start two mornings a week. She takes Sawyer for as much of the day as he'll allow and he adores her. He would have adored my mom too. He loves him some grandmama love.
So there are a lot of things she does that drive me crazy but really she tries so hard to be helpful and do things the way I like. I feel bad I ever let her annoy me. I should be grateful. I mean, I am grateful. From now on. Even if she does make me feel like I have a filthy house and keeps making comments to me about "when I get my body back."

Bridget, I'm sorry about the MIL comments, but I'm glad she's trying.

Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
That boyfriend was a lot of fun, but he would have been a terrible husband and an even more terrible father. I was engaged to him and broke it off a month before the wedding. I tell my dh pretty frequently that I'm very glad I married him instead. DH agrees that he is much better for me (they were friends at one point).
Bridget, it is totally justifiable to get annoyed at those kinds of comments. It doesn't mean you cannot also appreciate her completely for all the love and kindness she shows you. The two are not mutually exclusive, so if you are feeling any guilt for being annoyed just a tad at her, try to let it go. I get annoyed at my mom in lots of little ways, because of the way I am and the way she is. I love her completely, and she does so much for us and our children, but it doesn't stop me from getting annoyed. I've been feeling guilty about it as well, but I'm glad I talked to you about it because I'm going to try to let it go, too. It doesn't mean I don't love and appreciate her, but it also doesn't stop her from standing in my way every time I try to walk through a door, or stopping in front of my cart if we ever go shopping together, or standing right in front of the drawer I need to open if I'm cooking. (I told you, it's lots of little ways.)
And Bridget I totally agree with what Lydia said. It makes perfect sense and it's a good reminder. It's ok to be annoyed by the people we love. I don't think that takes away from our love of them...and I'm sure we annoy them just as much sometimes.
Today is Jessica's 17th birthday, so I don't want to ruin my FB postings for the day whining about FB...but I gotta say the recent change is probably the worst one yet. I am not a fan and I'm certain I'm going to miss a lot of important-to-me posts.
What did facebook do?
And thanks for letting me be annoyed by my mil. That makes me feel better. What really put me in check was seeing how awful dbf acts making it so obvious that she annoys him. I don't want to be so obvious. He tells me she was a horrible mom to him growing up. And she has also tearfully confided in me about things she did and mistakes she made that have made my heart hurt for dbf as a little boy. I just wish he could forgive her and move on. It's very uncomfortable to be around them.
One thing she does that has me biting my tongue is telling me what my kids' interests are. "Kai LOVES soccer." or "Sawyer really likes to be sang to. You should sing to him."
Thanks for the tips because being around my kids 24/7 leaves me totally clueless as to what they like.
That makes me sad for your dbf too, but I really do believe as adults we have to let all that go. I speak from my own experience...I couldn't imagine how miserable I'd be if I were hanging on to resentment toward my mother for the stuff she did. Or even my dad. He did wonderful, but had his own demons to battle and wasn't perfect. They both did the best they could with what they had.
Both my parents are in my house now, so I can relate, Bridge & L. I don't like getting annoyed, because it's like I get drunk on it or something and have no judgment. I say the most thoughtless things when I'm that way. I do think I'm more patient as I get older and don't annoy as easily. Actually, I credit APA for teaching me to manage my irritation, because where else are you going to talk so openly with others from all walks of life about topics that people are so emotionally invested in? It's almost a given that this site will foment annoyance, but I've learned to just think "well there's that crazy idea I disagree with again." Or, "now there's a crazy idea I haven't heard before." And you learn to think almost parentally towards others who act like kids themselves. It really does build one's patience muscle. That said, I've steeled myself for a month of my mom asking me "permission" to give B a sip of water, and my dad wanting to play with his little electronic gadgets but needing me to set them all up for him.
I confess I said "queue" on the previous page where I meant "cue". And I'm still sore that I once got a brand new pack of Allen wrenches seized from me at the airport because TSA thought I'd use them as tiny hexagonal shivs and hijack my flight to Vermont with them.
L, Fogfest this weekend in Pacifica. There's a parade on Sat morning and our tots will be dressed as superheroes. All families are welcome. I work the mother's club booth at noon. Maybe you'd be interested in the festival out?
I'm awake at this hour because I had a dream my dog chewed off her own foot and was so disturbed by it.
I checked onine about my jury duty and saw I don't have to call in until 11:15 today, so I'm off work and can go to 9am yoga
I feel the same way and also had some resentments regarding my own parents, actually almost every adult in my family except my grandmother and great grandmother who were always supportive and there for me and made sure I had anything I needed that they could provide, including lots of love and attention.
It is really interesting how similar your DBF is to my DH Bridget. DH was just like you describe regarding his own mom. She used to spank him everyday when he was a child and she married a man who physically abused her and DH and stayed with him for about 7 years. I also get sad thinking of DH as a boy because he and Ky are so much alike and Ky is just such a sweetheart and such a wonderful kid. DH is a sweetheart too most of the time (when he doesn't want to be an a$$hole LOL).
But he had a lot of issues with his mom. Before I met MIL I thought she would be a horrible person. She is just the sweetest (yet also kind of annoying) woman I have ever been around and DH's family is just like a model family to me now. They always send birthday cards and anniversary cards, they are kind and loving. If you went by the way DH described them, you would think they were demons or something. I did speak a lot to DH about forgiving his mom and how I thought he spoke to her in a disrespectful way. It was just shocking to me, the tone of voice he would use when speaking to her, like she was a pile of poop or something. When I mentioned it he would tell me about all the horrible things she did and that she let happen to him and I would in turn tell him about my own mom, how she basically let me be sexually abused but how I forgave her, mostly because I didn't want to have to have any anger in my life or resentment towards her that may rub off in other areas. MIL is always apologizing to DH and I think he has forgiven her even though it took a long time. We have been together about 12 years and I think he probably only recently got over his issues with her in the past 2 years.
Your MIL also sounds like mine as well. She was always making funny faces when mentioning how she thought Ky and especially Elle were hungry due to BFing. She always tells me things about the kids that she doesn't think I know. How Ky loves to draw for instance. I just smile. Even when she tells me I should join whatever exercise club so I can lose some weight. She says it just like that LOL. I just smile at her and tell her when I want to lose weight I will, that I know I'm fat so she doesn't have to remind me. I say it in a nice tone of voice and she is usually all apologetic, but she still says it a couple times a year when I see her. It doesn't bother me though and I still think she is a nice, sweet, old lady.
Chrissy, I'm sorry about Frank. I like to psychoanalyze bosses, and I think Frank sounds like a give-an-inch-take-a-mile type.
L, also I was thinking the other day to sat again I'd love to meet up w/ you & pepperlu the next time you get together. She seems neat. I think I'll PM her about Fogfest. My phone keeps trying to correct that to Figfest. Yum!
Awesome, Mylah! Well, about the day off d/t jury duty and the fogfest and the invitation and all. Not about the bad dog dream. We're going to Tahoe this weekend, though. I have a work conference and we're making a weekend of it. My mom is staying here and watching baby S. It's going to be very weird being apart from him.
I noticed the queue but knew what you meant.
I sometimes realize even years later (sometimes I see these posts of mine for some reason or another) that I left out a word or made a gross error and really want to go back and correct it, but then I worry how weird it will look to see an edited by comment so far after the original post and how nitpicky that will look. It's easy to not be perfect when we're typing in a hurry or in the middle of the night or when a kid wakes up and needs us or something happens.
ETA: I just saw your other post about Pepperlru. I really want to see her again, and have been meaning to try to meet up with her. We should try to plan something in October, maybe. I'll be happy to come over to the Other Side!

Oh, and Bridget, I felt similarly about B the whole time I was Bfing. I spent more time in the BF room on Diaperswappers than in here, and the ladies there heard a lot of my concerns. they kept reassuring me to trust baby to regulate his own intake. It's hard when you can't measure what they're having. B get really efficient at nursing too, so he'd be done in a minute and I couldn't believe he'd had enough. Independent from anything your miL might say, if you're BLW right now, I'd
think it's normal for Sawyer's intake to slow down.
One of my bday presents from my mom this morning with a card saying she'd dedicated a Catholic mass in my name. Thanks, I guess? Very typical passive-aggressive reminder that she wishes I hadn't left the church. So happy birthday to me and thanks for the continued crusading, mother. Seriously, if there's
Any passive aggression in me, it's in my blood. I still love her, but ... gah!
Wow I feel like I missed alot!
I haven't really payed any attention to the FB changes other than the "lists" which I think are kind of dumb
Bridget my dad was that way regarding his parents and I suppose that I was for a long time too. One day I hope he learns that he has to just embrace what happened in his childhood and accept that regardless of whether it was good/bad it is the reason he is where he is today-with you and your beautiful LO's
I wish I lived closer to some APA ladies! I swear I'm the only one in Fl who gets on APA I always wonder when I see mama's out and about if they are APA mama's or not
Happy Birthday by the way!

Thanks, Bridget! I'm sorry that I misread you post then. I thought you'd been saying you were worried about Sawyer. I definitely was stressed about Bodhi for a good 9 months.
Dbf just got word that an old friend of his from hawaii comitted suicide. He was a drug addict (crystal meth) so dbf stopped really having much to do with him once he got so deep into using that he wasn't even himself anymore. It's so sad. And dbf isn't good at just letting himself grieve. He keeps saying to me that he feels like he should have done something for Joe and I just keep telling him that there isn't anything you can do for a drug addict that does not want to quit. When I try to talk to him about it further he just clams up.
Sigh. Life is hard.
Awww that is sad Bridget You are right though. You can't help someone who doesn't want to help themselves.
Speaking of addicts my little brother got away from his pill popping GF and is now on day 5, clean and sober (well except for the marijuana, but I'd much rather that than the pills!) I'm happy for him, he keeps apologizing for not being in our lives over the past couple of years... It's really sad watching him realize what he's done to himself and to our family

Armchair travel may have been invented for Cancerians, the better to stay safe and warm in their trusty shells.
Not the most adventurous members of the Zodiac, those born under this sign are happy to stay at home, or they will generally go somewhere close to home when they do venture out. And you can bet they won't go alone -- the whole family comes along when the Crab travels, providing the emotional security which these folks seek. It's very possible that the entire clan will crowd into a roomy RV and just hit the road. This 'home away from home' will also possess some of the comforts of home, such as favorite pillows, blankets and foods. Fido will be snuggled in the back, while Gramps plucks the strings of his well-worn fiddle. Are we there yet, Toto? Yep, there's no place like home to the Crab, so any journey must recreate home and hearth as much as possible.
Although nurturing souls, Cancerians can also be strong-willed, so it's they who will set the agenda when traveling. Not a lot of money is likely to be spent on a trip, either, as the Crab knows the value of a buck. A 'Sentimental Journey' describes the Crab to a T: When the route feels good, they'll do it ... but only then.
