OUR UNCROWNED KING. LITTl.B George Washington lived long ago. And his heart was as pure ^ as thc wind driven snow. Ho blushed at a lie, spumed that which Id base, And with shoulders erect looked tho world In the face. No meannaas is told of his life as a boy. For truth was his watchword and honor his Joy; At play or at work, with hatchet and pen. Ho carved for himself a plaoe aniong men. Ivittle George Washington grew to a man, Tho honor and pride of hhi kindred and clan; No prejudice, malice, deception or strife Was mixed with the pure alloy of his life: Brave, loyal and true to country and creed, He camo to the front in our nation's great need- Sing fivrth ye his praise and natal bellB ring. To honor the name of our un¬ crowned king! —Martha J. Ople. HAVE YE SEEN THE MORNING 8KY7 HAVE ye seen tho morning sky When the dawn prevails on bigb.

HE fife and drum, the banners fine, Spur on the men in warring line Until the battle's lost or won: But out In lonely hamlets wait Those who can only guess the fat« Of father, brother, lover, eon. Tlio Red Cross nurses gladly go To ease the pain of those laid low By murd'rous shell and gun and dart. But science has no surgery That for a moment can set free A waiting woman's grief torn heart. The soldiers In the deadly flght Soon grow accustomed to the sight Of wounded men and ghastly dead. But dally deeper grows the pain That rends a mother's heart In twain When children cry In vain for bread. O God ot nations, grant, we pray. That there may be some speedy way Of quieting this warring host. And meajiwhile grant thy special care To war robbed women everywhere. For they It is who suffer most. —Alice Crowell Hoffman. PATHS OF THE INFINITE. TTAVE we not marked earth's limits, fol- •*-*¦ lowed its long ways round. Charted our island world and seen how the measureless deep Sunders It, holds It remote, that still In our hearta we keep A faith In a path that links our shores with a shore unfound?

TTiunicipal Granaries. For more than two centuries the au¬ thorities of Loudon maintained munici¬ pal graiuiries, the first one having beeu established by Sir Stephen Browu, lord mayor, in 1438. By means of these city granaries the authorities held the "com badgers" In check aud regulated not only the price of com, but of bread. The great fire In London destroyed the last of these granaries and also tlie public mills and ovens In which tiie city's grain was ground and baked, aud the system was not thereafter Intro¬ duced, (bhlefly because the general laws against grain speculators were suffi¬ cient to restrain undue speculation. Corn markets were held, however, at late as the beginning of the eighteenth century at Bear quay, lu Thames street, London, while Queenhlthe viras tbe chief market for flour and meal, and Inter the metropolitan trade cen¬ tered in the world famous Cora Ex¬ change In Mark lane. — New York rimes. Cold Doesn't Always Contract. There are many ways of demonstrat¬ ing the fallacy of the a.ssertlon that "heat expands, cold contracts." When water (other liquids as well) freezes to Ice It Increases In bulk. .Sometimes it is said, however, that the volume of the sum of the Ice crystals alone Is no grreater than that of the original liciuld, but that the crystals of Ice do not flt in well together and le.ive spaces be¬ tween them which account for the ap¬ parent Increase In volume. Molten metate, as a rule, contract upon solidification, wblch is nothing but freezing. Some alloys, on the other hand, expand when solidified. Type melal, which is composed chiefly of lead and autimony, Is auch an alloy. This propensity Is of particular advan¬ tage In thl« case because it causes the metal In solidifying to fill up every tiny corner nnd hair spnce In the ma¬ trix.—New York Worid. Wild Zebras.

Tbe author of "Kloof and Karroo" says that a Boer In Cape Colony had onco forced a zebra to the brink of a precipice, when the desperate creature turned ujwn him, attacked hliu with ita te<>th and actually tore one of his feet from the leg. Another author writes of a sol<lior who mounted a half domesticated zebra. Tbe creature, after making the most furious attempts to get rid of Its rider, plunged over a steep bank into the river and threw the soldier as It emerged. Whiie tbe man luy balf stunned upon the ground the zebra quietly walked op to blm and bit off one of bis ears. but TESTAMENT.

Slatou, wbo will be succeeded this spring by Gov¬ ernor Nat ^ Harris, will be the par¬ doning of some hundreds of Creorgla'a forgotten prisoners, wbo have been In prison so long tbat about all their friends and kindred have died. The governor recently visited the state farm at MllledgeviUe to leara something about tbese human dere¬ licts. As they approached one by one to lay their petitions before the gov¬ ernor they seemetl very weary. The governor found convicts who had been Imprisoned for twenty-five l^ears or more. learned that their friends were dead, that nobody re¬ mains to bring their petitions before the pardoning lioard; thnt in fact they are human Ijolngs utterly forgotten. He talked with them aud then had de¬ tails of their lives prepared, nnd now he Is considering their petitions. "Those who I tliink deserve pa. role," the governor says, "have expiat¬ ed fully any ••rime they have done.

Infants on a boat
Who here has or would take their infant on a boat? According to the US Coast Guard the kid should be 18 pounds and fit an a PFD.
Has anyone used an infant PFD they liked? This is just an 18' open bow used on small inland lakes like Orchard Lake or Cass Lake. It would be fun to take the whole family on the boat but if my infant son can't go my wife would have to stay behind while I take our daughter.
May the Sparks be with you |

I looked at West marine and they have a couple PFD's. There is a local boat store in Keego Harbor I might check out to see if they have any and see how they fit.

We Like it Loud
This is definitely an issue. There are several manufactures that incorporate neoprene, gel, and webbing into their infant and toddler jackets. They are more expensive, but certainly more comfortable and cooler than the nylon and foam ones. Also keep in mind that state law requires all children ages 6 and under to be in a type 1 or type 2 life jacket, it must be self righting and have the float pad attached for behind the head.

I bought the Neoprene one from Dick's, on sale for 35.00. IMO, it's great. I've read the nylon ones get real hot. I also found that these ones don't seem to be so bulky, and fit around the head better.
When we test fitted it for him in the store, I put it on him, and picked him up by the handle on the head float, and hung him on the wall. He didn't seem uncomfortable at all. I have found that when he's in the water, since he is only like 14 pounds that it's slightly big for him, and the unless you unzip the top just a tad the corners poke him in the face. When in the boat, we keep it zipped up. I don't care if it pokes his face if he goes flying out, atleast he'll float. This is my son (10 weeks, and his partner in crime, who is 5 months.

Both of mine were boating at 3-6 months. Infant PFDs worked great.
In open bow, I used a large golf-style umbrella for shade. Had cuddy cabin for younger one. Cuddy cabin was great for shade and ability to have safe, secure napping area.
This is the Pub. Leave common sense at the door. |

After one of your limbs is amputated, you may feel as if the limb is still there. This is called phantom sensation. It may feel:
These sensations slowly get weaker and weaker. You should also feel them less often. They may not ever go away completely.
Pain in the missing part of the arm or leg is called phantom pain. It may feel like:
Phantom limb pain will lessen over time for most people.
Some things may make phantom pain worse:
Try to relax in a way that works for you. Do deep breathing, or pretend to relax the missing arm or leg.
Reading, listening to music, or doing something that takes your mind off the pain may help. You may also try taking a warm bath -- if your surgery wound is completely healed.
Ask your doctor if you can take acetaminophen (Tylenol), aspirin, ibuprofen (such as Advil or Motrin), or other drugs that can help with pain.
These things may also help lessen phantom pain:

Beef cow numbers decline USDA has released their annual cattle inventory report and as expected, beef herd liquidation continued during 2010 despite the stronger fall markets. Cow numbers fell by 1.6 percent, and the number of heifers held for beef replacements fell by about five percent.
Monday, Maryellen, Cathy, Laraine, and I attended a funeral that we did not want to attend. As members of the Henry County Extension Service, we lost our co-worker and good friend Annmarie Ivers, as she lost her courageous battle with cancer.
There are two new 4-H projects available for you to enjoy.
The first new offering is a crocheting club. The project will be a purse made from "granny squares." Brenda Simpson, who many of you met while in sewing, has agreed to offer a beginning crocheting class.
Saundra Smith, our knitting club leader has agreed to assist Brenda with this class.
Composting reduces household waste and enriches the soil by converting leftovers and yard waste into a rich humus over a period of time. Planning now, while the garden is still fallow, allows you to decide on a method that best suits your family's needs and to settle into a routine before gardening season starts.
The Henry County 4-H Talk Meet and Variety Show was held on March 23 at the Henry County Cooperative Extension Service. The evening began with junior division speeches which are broken down by the 4-Hers ages.
On April 22, 1970, 20 million people celebrated the first Earth Day. Since then our planet has faced many environmental challenges, but has also made great strides in protecting and preserving our natural resources.
It's SPRING and warm weather makes many of us start planning for flower and vegetable gardens and with today's tight economy, everyone is looking for ways to cut expenses. Growing a garden has the potential to reduce the amount of money spent on groceries. But this "potential" depends on the costs involved in growing the crops, types and amounts of vegetables grown, yields that are derived from the garden, and other factors.

Tekton Enzo, a strong contender for Speaker of the Year
Late last year when I had my first encounter with a Tekton Design speaker, the M-Lore ($650 a pair), I was so bowled over by the sound I could hardly wait to try another Tekton. The time has come today with the all-new Enzo, a 40-inch-tall tower sporting three tweeters and two 8-inch woofers.
Multiple tweeters are rare on audiophile speakers, but Tekton's Eric Alexander developed a unique patent-pending approach that changes the way multiple tweeters are used. Unfortunately, he was mum about the details of his technology, but the Enzo's sound tells me all I need to … Read more

My parents only ever had two reasons for sotto voce exchanges. Those secret impassioned conversations always ended when I entered the room with them shaking their heads, unable to contain one final utterance, "A complete disgrace. Ruining the family name."
So, either my sister had gone among the Macedonian boys again, or Princess Margaret had been snapped with a new suitor.
Mick Jagger, David Niven, Peter Sellers, Keith Miller, Roddy Llewellyn, rock star, actor, actor, sportsman, photographer, tinker, tailor, soldier, toyboy. The woman's ever-present fag and sleepy eyes looked appallingly post-coital. And the presses ran overtime and the photographers camped cold nights in hawthorn hedges and Princess Margaret became the dark star of a theatre in which the great unwashed passed judgment on Royalty.
It is psychologically enriching to be better than your betters. Over the garden fences, neighbor-to-neighbor we excoriated Margaret. But in our conversations with ourselves we loved her showing us the hollowness of the royal claim.
Paradoxically, Princess Margaret's dalliances playing in News Of The World, instead of making the Royal Family look tawdry and immoral, showed them to be … like us.
Despite having been elephant-stamped by God, this woman stumbled through life on feet of clay, and her family suffered her tawdry doings stoically and we could all relate to that suffering, having an uncle of sister of equivalent disrepute.
And how lily-white did our Monarch look, opening parliaments and remaining loyal to her Prince, alongside her sister who was flagrantly doing neither? We couldn't help but admire Elizabeth, a stoic, exemplary figure suffering the disgraces of a tearaway sibling. Thank God she was our Queen rather than Margaret. It's a cinch being seen as a saint when your sister is no better than she ought to be.
The royal minders must have been horrified when The Margaret Show first broke on the world. The sudden intrusiveness of the press, cameras zooming in from unfathomable distance, headlines saying whatever they pleased, a mood of permissiveness in the air giving their charges dangerous ideas of free love. How could this be controlled?
But pretty soon they realized that Margaret was running blindingly good interference for the Queen. The hoi polloi seemed to be thanking God that Elizabeth was their Queen. They seemed to think that they had won a fifty-fifty bet with the devil. And Margaret wasn't half willing to play bad cop.
For some Margaret showed the human face of the Royal Family and made them real, connected them to their subjects. For others she showed how lucky we were that the monarch was a saint. Just look what we might have had. And who wants to storm the palace when you can pity and empathize with its inhabitants?
Once the Royal minders cottoned on to this dodge it was inevitable they'd play it again and again. Good cop, bad cop. White rose, black sheep. Don't offer the people a choice between a Monarchy and a republic. Offer them a choice between a noble, faithful monarch and a libidinous ne'er-do-well.
They will count themselves lucky to get the former. They will feel they survived a narrow scrape, if you can paint Margaret black enough. The libidinous ne'er-do-well has become a royal staple since Margaret stumbled unwittingly into the role.
Hence Prince Andrew became the next generation's libidinous ne'er-do-well. A stalking horse, a tethered goat, he was a whole circus of bleating critters for the press to chase to ground.
And he did his best in the role. In any normal generation it would have been enough. But despite his staccato gaffes and his wife's mind-bogglingly guileless fumblings at court and her skirt-lifting calisthenics in the clubs of London, they were unable to run interference between the press and the heir to the throne.
King Kong buggering himself on Big Ben could not have distracted the public from the idiocy and sexual chicanery of Charles and Diana. Andrew, brave Andrew, with an erotic masseuse here and a Gaddafi or so there, didn't stand a chance. As a tethered goat to draw the leopard of the press, he was a failure.
Now his nephew Prince Harry has been photographed playing strip-billiards in Vegas with a couple of hotties. A naked romp, the papers say. An improvement from dressing as a Nazi at a fancy dress party, for my money. Still, the Queen is reported to be shocked. But then, the Queen has been reported shocked more often than R.P.McMurphy.
Clarence House has asked U.K. media to "Respect the prince's expectation of privacy." I don't even have one of those myself, and no one is vaguely interested in me. If Harry truly has an expectation of privacy then he is even stupider than his slender gene pool would excuse.
But you see the real storyline emerging here around this kid. A hundred and eighty million dollars a year on Royal security and they couldn't stop these photos? The royal minders have chosen him as this generation's royal tethered goat. A bleating, fornicating, morsel to draw the press. Because in my reckoning, if there isn't a manservant-hulk standing by to prevent nude photos in which Harry is handling his royal jewels, then there must be a manservant-hulk standing by to encourage such idiocy.
So the-powers-that-be have decided he is to be the new Princess Margaret. It will give us a lot of dark fun. Prove irrefutably, one more time; we are better than our betters. And ease his brother's path to the monarchy.
Soon we will be thanking God Wills is our King and not Harry. Thanking our lucky stars our head of state is a good, wise, reasonable person, when it could so easily have been otherwise.

He must have big feet, one would not go shoeless and allow pics to be taken of yourself shoeless if you had small feet. He is obviously well endowed apart from financially so.
Carole Bayer says:
Yeah, him dressing as a filthy Nazi for a 'joke' was particularly mature, tasteful and dignified. His grandmother and great grandmother would have been absolutely appalled.
nihonin says:
I take it Anson, after reading your opinion, you're not a Monarchist. Or were you just a naughty boy and lucky for them you're not as naughty as Harry.
Paulie says:
@Badjack - they may have, but Carole is right - both Elizabeths lived through a horrid war and Harry's little salute (even if intended as a joke) was quite shameful for all British people.
@nilhonin - very true! For anyone else this is just 'bad taste' (and from memory it was a bad taste party), but for a royal descendent - representing a Commonwealth who lost thousands of people during WWII - it is definitely not a good look, and not his finest hour.

It's probably written into the Royal Charter somewhere. The second born child of the reigning monarch or presumtive heir is required to behave like a complete buffoon or you are cut off from the royal tit.
There are probably a few heretofores and hences scattered about so it looks serious.

RuralBrain says:
Even when Australia becomes a republic…God knows when???...we will still be bombarded with 'naughty' stories of Royals misbehaving. Living in a republic has not protected Americans from this crap. They are served the same dollops of it as we. Nazi salutes, nude 'romps' are all part of what now passes as a 'great night out'.
George says:
They both seem like good blokes. I wouldn't care which one was king. Harry might even change the Queen's Birthday holiday to free alchohol day. Or tax free alchohol day.
Glenn9 says:
Yes I agree with Bill above, we should be re-visiting the mechanisms by which we can become a republic.
But I suspect that will have no affect on minimizing paparazzo and the general public's interest in Harry's adventures, eh ?

WHITLAM SACKING: THE TRUTH ABOUT IT! And Who Done The Sacking PART TWO By the time the ALP next took office in 1983, under Oxford-trained Rhodes scholar Bob Hawke and Paul Keating, Labor had abandoned its traditional commitment to the common good exemplified by tariff protection for agriculture and industry, national ownership of vital raw materials, and sovereign national banking. Instead, they sold out to the City of London by ramming through deregulation, privatisation, and free trade policies that turned Australia into a raw materials quarry from which Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton and their cartel partners have ripped out hundreds of billions of dollars. Whitlam sacking: However, such is the power of the fairy tale believed by little children of all ages at all levels of Australian society—likely including you yourself—that "the Crown is above politics", that when the Queen's private secretary Martin Charteris assured Whitlam that "the Queen knew nothing about" his sacking, Whitlam dutifully recorded that as the gospel truth in his autobiography, The Truth of the Matter: "It is a fact that the Queen's representative in Australia had kept the Queen in the same total ignorance of his actions as he had the Prime Minister of Australia." And even though Whitlam also described former MI6 agent Kerr as a grovelling toady who would sell his soul for Royal honours, he refused to draw the obvious conclusion that Kerr was working in cahoots with the Crown, even as he dryly observed that following his sacking the Crown showered Kerr with so many gongs that he "had become in a single annus mirabilis the Rt. Hon Sir John Kerr, A.K., G.C.M.G., G.C.V.O.K, St.J.".
Meanwhile Kerr bragged in his own book, Matters of Judgement, that shortly after Whitlam's dismissal the Queen herself inducted Kerr into her Privy Council, among numerous other honours she rained down upon him: "In Canberra I was sworn in as a member of Her Majesty's Privy Council at a meeting presided over by the Queen at Yarralumla. During an audience on board the Britannia in Fremantle harbour, Her Majesty invested me as a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order. (I had previously, in 1975 when the Queen established the Order of Australia of which she is Sovereign, became the first Chancellor and a Companion of the Order and later, when the rank of knighthood was introduced, the first Knight of the Order of Australia. In 1976 Her Majesty had promoted me to the rank of Knight Grand Cross in the Order of St. Michael and St. George. Throughout my Governor-Generalship I was Prior in Australia and a Knight in the Order of St. John of Jerusalem…)"
Along with Kerr, the Queen also rewarded Kerr's private secretary and co-conspirator, Sir David Smith (who publicly read the famous proclamation dismissing Whitlam), by anointing him as a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order. This Royal Victorian Order is the third highest honour in the British Empire, and is awarded as A recognition of personal service to the reigning Sovereign". It is granted by the Queen herself, without the recommendation of any of her government. Whitlam sacking: the Queen did it!
AdamC says:
This article seems a little overcooked to me.
Personally, while he went a bit too far with the nudie billiards, Harry is a great asset to the royal family. He acts as a great contrast to his regal-yet-slightly-dull brother.
Long may the Windsors reign.

Harry for King!
That is the problem for Royal families isn't it? Just what do the siblings the 2nd & 3rd in line do? Until Charlie, Andy & Eddy & Annie came along poor old Maggie was 2nd in-line wasn't she so she had something to look forward to in the event Liz copped it before she started breeding or if she had not been able to. Once those weird children arrived Mags was out on a limb. The poor cow had nothing to do. She could not go out & get a job at Harrods, Tesco or Harvey Nicks or if she had come here with Coles or Woolies. She was unemployable.
Harry is no different! At present he is in-line, should Willie cop it or not breed, to become King. Once Katy has a child or two Harry's prospects are zero. Like Mags he is unemployable.
Other than having appalling taste in women, Harry has done no wrong. He invited a couple of tarts he met in a sleazy bar up to his bedroom. That's not illegal. They played some silly game which caused them to get their gear off. That's not illegal either.
What was illegal was that one of those tarts took photos of Harry &, it has been suggested, she sold them without his knowledge. Look closely at those photos. Harry does not look as if he is enjoying having them taken. That is where his so-called protectors - Policemen appointed by Scotland Yard - should have stepped in. How much were they paid not to?
Liz was brought up from a very early age to know what her future was.
Maggie had none.
Willie, like Charlie, has known all his life what the future held for him.
Harry, like Annie, Andy & Eddy, has never had a real future. He will always be stuck in a bloody hard place with nothing to do - except shag.

o: A good English Pale. I would have rather the malt was more caramellow and prominent, so as such this would not be a top choice for me. But it is a fine representation of the style.
Serving type: bottle

Lydia, that's awful! But I agree I'm impressed by Claire's logic.
Well, it's not really an awesome place in American standards but it's a chain restaurant called Chiquitos. I had chimichangas and Rich had fajitas (or fa gee tas as some people say here). In all honesty, if you're used to proper tex mex, this place probably won't impress you! But hey, I live just outside of Leeds, so if you do come over, shout me a holler!
Kate, i'm the same with my body shape. I'm on the skinny side but even before kids my tummy always carried a lot of weight. What I do now is just not try to cover it up with flowy clothes and wear snugger ones instead.
Lydia, thanks much for the pm. I'm sorry you seemed pressured to get bsck to me. Not my intention.Also wanted to add that we cut out tv watching for similar reasons. It trumped everyyhing.
Off to read the mayo clinic article.
Last edited by Bridget; 06-20-2011 at 04:36 AM.
Well I'm glad I've been an inspiration, either way ;)
LOL at Claire's logic-almost spit out my drink there! Sorry it was a crappy day though.
Last night after DH went to bed I stayed up past 1 a.m. and he finally came downstairs and asked if I was coming to bed. This morning we had a talk about how I feel like he doesn't give off the vibe that he cares about me (like when he just walked off to bed without me) and he said he'd try to be better about that. We've had that talk before though so who knows.
Ok I missed alot! This is what happens when you put your laptop in the washing machine and don't have access to a computer outside of work
Trying to catch up!!
I see these parents A LOT. It really bothers me and when I am in an awful mood, I will say to one of my kids "I really like how we can eat our healthy food without having to tell everyone about it because we don't need everyone to know what we do. We already feel good about ourselves." I usually say things like this to Elle and she'll say "uh-huh, we feel good about ourselves."' She is into repeating things now. I only do that when I am in an awful mood though. I feel bad because Ky now will pick up on when people do this and he'll talk about them very loudly when I'm not in an awful mood and if I embarrassed easily, I would be embarrassed.
I agree with this Kate. If you like your dress you should wear it. You should see my midsection, it is ridiculous the rolls, even after losing 60lbs it is just ridiculous. It used to really bother me, but now not so much, unless I am in an awful mood like above and then I get kind of critical of myself. I actually am considering getting a tummy tuck before I'm 40 due to how bad my stomach looks even though I know I'll probably chicken out of it.
Claire is so smart and funny !
I would also cut down on the TV due to this. We don't watch much TV but we do sometimes. Elle is more into it than Ky. She actually didn't want to go somewhere with me one day when Dinosaur Train on PBS was on one evening. Dinosaur Train is her favorite show, that and Word Girl and she will actually mini-tantrum if you turn the channel or even pick up the remote while either one of them are on. She usually always wants to go everywhere I go so I was shocked that she said she didn't want to go with me because "I have to watch my show! My show is on!" and she proceeded to lay on the floor and watch it.
We had a pretty boring Father's Day. I bought DH a card, which of course he thought was mushy. He doesn't like mushy things, they make him feel "weird." Ky bought him a card that made him feel weird for a different reason. It was in the shape of a big glass beer mug and said "Free Beer" on the outside and "Now that I have your attention, I just wanted to wish you a Happy Father's Day" on the inside. I let Ky pick out the card himself and even though I thought it was funny considering my DH loves him some beer and spends a lot of time drinking beer on weekends, I thought it may be a bit inappropriate, but decided to buy it anyway since I figured DH could see that the kids notice his beer drinking. Elle didn't get DH anything since I didn't want her to write her "E" which she has mastered on a beer card and mine said "to my husband" so she just helped to bring him breakfast in bed, which he loved. DH also loves breakfast foods and he has been griping that I haven't been doing my wifely duties and making him breakfast on the weekends like I used to do. So I made him some eggs, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns (like Waffle House - scattered, smothered, and covered), and pancakes with home made blueberry syrup. He asked what he had to do to get me to make breakfast more often and I didn't want to start an argument on Father's Day by saying "any chore or child care need that doesn't involve me having to tell you to do it." So I said nothing. We had a great Father's Day.
I just got back from Sydney's moving up ceremony. I had a pang of sadness when the principal talked about the kids going from K-12 together...it made me regret moving here even more. That would have been the case at their old school. Even though we're going back, Bobbie missed out on 10-12 with her school. I know it shouldn't bother me, and the girls have had both positive experiences and met wonderful friends that they wouldn't have otherwise, but still.... It was a brief, sad moment. During the slide show, they had pictures of the 6th graders from Kindergarten and of course Sydney wasn't in them. I wondered if she was in the ones they showed at her old school when that class moved up to middle school (5th grade).
Rich went to Bobbie's hearing. They're going to allow her to participate, but she has to plant flowers this week at the high school. So now we have to find her a gown somehow because Bobbie never gave me the order form. I don't even know what color the gowns are supposed to be. I'm very aggravated with her at the moment.
I did call her court and they said she can plead guilty by mail-so we don't have to travel 4 hours for that. I'm not sure why, but Rich brought her back home before going to the house to do some work on it. He said she was supposed to vacuum here, but when I got here she's in bed sleeping. Yes, I'm aggravated with her.
I don't know how it ended up in the laundry basket (I probably put it there half asleep at some point) but when I put my clothes in the washer I just dump the laundry basket (our baskets are sorted already) since I have no agitator I just dump and go.... Well yeah, until I heard the clunking of my computer! I thought the washer was giving out, I wish it had I have an extra one of those
I already ordered a new one. Had too, can't exactly do my online courses with access to onlien right It will be here on July 1st (so they say) I hope so! I am going through withdrawl or something
LOL! Elle has a fascination with Budweiser bottle caps. She collects them at the playground because that's what daddy drinks. Mommy drinks water . I am boring.
Chrissy, I was going to ask about the mail in plea since she will mroe than likely plead guilty. She will probably have to pay a fine. I was also going to suggest asking if they can postpone her appearance if it was mandatory, but only certain charges have mandatory appearances and I figured that shop lifting wouldn't be unless it was for something worth a lot of money, like jewelry. Unfortunately I have a lot of experience with courts due to crazy cops here in Atlanta. I am glad she will be able to plead by mail and it must be so frustrating that she is not tending to her business. Even if she didn't think she was going to walk, she could have ordered a gown. You could have just refused to pay for it if she didn't get in the ceremony.
Kyro, at 9 is already starting to frustrate me with his lack of concern and sudden forgetfulness, I am afraid it will get worse during his teenage years. I remember my brothers being very forgetful, even myself, even though for me I only "forgot" when I didn't feel like doing something. I have a feeling that is what Ky is doing so I am going to start forgetting doing things for him as well if he keeps it up.
Erin, I'm glad you know what I mean about those parents. I actually talk in hushed tones to my kids when we are in public because I'm just a private person in general and don't need the world knowing my business. Dbf does it sometimes though. It's embarassing. I remember one time in Hawaii when Kai was an infant we went to a pro soccer game and behind us was a group of girls who worked at the local strip club and OMG dbf was hamming it up with the kids so bad. He kept saying he had his hands full with the two kids and was because he did not help me AT ALL then. I wasn't even mad that he was flirting. I was annoyed that he was putting on such an act and clearly didn't give me enough credit that I would see through it. I didn't say anything about it until I told the story to our friends at dinner the next night and properly humiliated him for it. We all had a good laugh.
I once washed a diaper by just dumping the clothes in the washer and once washed my cell phone because it was in my jeans pocket.
Chrissy, I'm sorry Bobbie is giving you so much trouble right now.

I go if DH puts a kleenex in the wash. He says I should check his pockets, I say he should before he puts them in the dirty laundry. OMG do I b*tch hardcore when this happens.
Kate, personally I wouldn't care if someone thought you might look a little pg or not. Wear what you like! I'm fat and have a big butt, nothing is going to hide that. And really it's much more flattering if my clothes are more fitted (not skin tight!) than if I am wearing something baggy. Maybe something in a princess cut would work for you. I know for me that is what I tend to look for since I have narrow shoulders but am big in the hips/rear. I need tops that are more fitted on top but have a flare at the bottom. Like this one would make anyone look a bit pg http://fashionbug.lanebryant.com/dre...&Mcat=5043%401
But this one might be better http://fashionbug.lanebryant.com/dre...&Mcat=5043%401 or something like this http://fashionbug.lanebryant.com/dre...01#productTabs
Chrissy, is there a way you could take away texting? I'm kind of concerned about the lack of phone calling. I mean I would rather email than call a lot of times....but I don't see how one could ever have a job without calling at least sometimes or needing to answer the phone. I know that there are jobs that don't use phones at all but really any kind of professional job will need that skill.
That first dress is the style of the dress I wore for the cruise photo op that ended up looking horrible LOL
I can't imagine that teired pink dress looking good on me, I thought you'd have to be a skinny ***** to not look plump in that but I have never tried on that type because I think it's hideous.
The last one is cute but I'm leery about prints now because it seems they make things worse. I love prints but the last two dresses I looked pregnant in were prints and everyone seems to wear solids these days.
Ok, hmm, maybe something like a shift would work http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/wome...hift+Dress.jsp
But now after looking through a couple of stores....honestly most of the skinny models look PG in the current style. Seems like almost everything was more of a babydoll/empire waist cut.
It's been going on for a while now. I remember when I went to go shopping right after I had Conner and I was appalled that all the tops looked like maternity tops to me. I mean, I'd just spent 9 months wearing maternity tops!!! I don't care what your body shape is, if it 'poofs' from just under the boobs, it's gonna make you look like you're possibly pregnant. The only question is, are you ok with that or not? I'm trying to convince myself I'll be ok wearin a maxi dress...but I haven't been able to convince myself well enough to actually buy one.
Last edited by missychrissy; 06-20-2011 at 01:17 PM.
See I love the babydoll style tops. They tend to hide my rolls
I just don't wear dresses. I try every once in a while but they tend to look stupid on me with the hips/rear. Skirts don't fit right either for that reason. And I'm not wear spanx....tried some on once and it was awful trying to get into it.
This is the kind of top I would tend to go for and try on and would tend to work on me http://fashionbug.lanebryant.com/top...Mcat=15221%401
I HATE the tops that have banding at the bottom....on my pear shape that is NOT where I need emphasis.

Two fires on Sunday were both caused by hot ashes, according to the Watertown Fire Department.
A fire in the garage at the Valerie J. Boyle residence, 750 Knickerbocker Drive, prompted the dispatch of city fire units and police. Among the responding officers was Officer Mark A. Lamica, who, using two extinguishers, helped keep the blaze down before fire units arrived, according to the Fire Department and Police Chief Gary R. Comins.
Hot ashes in a container set fire to combustible materials, according to the Fire Department, and flames spread to a Toyota, causing damage to a portion of the vehicle. There also was some structural damage to the garage, which is insured.
Hot ashes caused another blaze about 1:35 p.m. at the William ONeill residence, 710 Morrison St. Dumped in the driveway, the ashes ignited an old tire, and flames spread to a rear section of the house where renovations were being conducted, according to the Fire Department.
Flames moved upward, forcing firefighters to remove roof boards and some metal.
The house is not insured, according to the Fire Department.

Seat to Feet |
To Determine Your Seat to Feet Measurements, Sit on the floor, make a fist, bend your knee. Put the fist under your knee. Your feet should be kind of relaxed and pointing in about a 70 degree angle ( not straight up 90 deg). Now mark the floor, straight down from the ball of your foot. Not where your heel ends because the footwell on the waveski angles foward. Now mark the floor, straight down the small of your back, same here the seatwell angles back. With a tape measure, measure the distance. (An Average Measurement is 41.5" for a 5'10" person)
