Multiculturism has failed and the sky is falling
This is really tough to watch but important to watch at the same time. It's clear multiculturalism has failed. Some may call posting this video hate speech, I look at the pictures and just call it the truth. By sharing it with others hopefully people 1) wake up then 2) think hard about what to do. I personally think the thing to do is to enact orderly immigration laws that prohibit the immigration of Muslims specifically to prevent the same cultural breakdown from happening here. I want the melting pot to work, but that suggests one culture, not separate multi-cultures. If it sounds like it is dividing immigration along racial and religious lines to prevent people who want to divide along racial and religious lines from entering the country then so be it. If it sounds like violating freedom of religion to preserve freedom of religion, then welcome to the conundrum. Outside of that I do believe there is a culture. Isn't it necessary to protect the culture?
The Tea party crazies are
The Tea party crazies are comin'!
You Cannot Deny the Facts
Islam is definitely not a religion of peace.
Awesome place. I was there during Ramadan. I have never ever met nicer people - all black open-minded Muslim men. It was an extraordinary experience. I did not see any women though as is common in Muslim countries (sad). But the nicest people on earth, imho, are Zanzibarians, Peruvians, and Bhutanese. Rand has absolutely no idea what he is saying.
Islam is not a religion
It is a totalitarian ideology. IMHO, sharia law is political. So is dhimmitude. We would be better off by calling a spade a spade instead of believing that they believe in some perceived god.
Of Christians are being assaulted and/or worse in Africa and Asia as far as I recall.
How many
Muslims has the US killed in the "war on terror" in Iraq and elsewhere? After Saddam Hussein was toppled a US serviceman was quoted saying "I knew my god was stronger than your god."
Making this about religion is exactly the wrong thing to do.
That maybe correct
But I am wanting to stay on topic.
Fact: Many Christians are living in fear overseas. Their torment is great. Are you familiar with
...are you a neo-liberal by chance? just joking lol
900 Christians were butchered last year in Nigeria alone.
No truer statement can be made
It has been the fuel for every conflict throughout the ages. At some point should a faith finally set an example of peace over conflict? Probably never happen due to the preaching of man. Every faith apparently needs an enemy to perpetually sustain it's self. Two wrongs do not make a right.
If I disappear from a discussion please forgive me. My 24-7 business requires me to split mid-sentence to serve them. I am not ducking out, I will be back later to catch up.
He was basically quoting Michael Scheuer
And you guys sure seem to like him...What gives?
Look at these quotes carefully:
Radical Islam will end only when Islam begins to police Islam. Only when Islam allows her children to examine the firefly in the daylight will the knowledge and enlightenment begin to glow and grow and religious violence recede. We should all pray for that day to come sooner rather than later.
We send billions of dollars a year to Pakistan and Egypt. We helped put new Islamic regimes in place in Afghanistan and Iraq. President Obama now sends arms to Islamic Rebels in Syria. In Egypt the mob attacked our embassy and burned our flag. I don't know about you…but I've had enough.
(Notice he didn't say, "let's go bomb some countries!)
To me, it doesn't make any sense to send American arms, American planes or American troops to aid the Syrian rebels, who are on the same side of that war as Al Qaeda!
In the future, I see less and less likelihood that conventional wars and armies will defeat 50 million Muslims spread across the planet. Make no mistake, we should actively defend ourselves but the ultimate answer must come from Islam itself.
These Islamic Republics see us as invaders and infidels. They will never accept us through force of arms. Somehow, though, they must come to understand that they must police themselves, that they must root out and destroy the sadists and killers who distort and contort religion to justify killing civilians and children.
Islam needs to remember and recreate the good in their history. For centuries, the Middle East was home to the cultural and intellectual centers of the ancient world. Math and science flourished. Tolerance and sophistication were the norm.
The great medieval physician, Rhazes, identified smallpox and measles, while the Persian mathematician, al-Kwarizmi, made advances in algebra.
Islam carried the light of learning through the centuries. They paved the way for the Enlightenment. Innovation in the Muslim communities developed the magnetic compass, mastered pens and printing, and understood better than any other culture the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
As late as the 1960s it was said that books were written in Cairo, printed in Beirut, and read in Baghdad.
Most Muslims describe Islam as a peaceful and tolerant religion, that at one time prized inquiry over the heads of infidels; the scientific method over fanaticism. I believe Islam still contains the roots of these classical traditions, and can return to them....
*Now, these were all ballsy points to make, but they are pretty well balanced in my book and waaaay more intelligent than what most political hacks are saying. What is the real beef with what he is saying from our community? Are you mad that he's a Christian?

"If you're into political activism, at least for Ron Paul if not for anyone else, I strongly recommend spending some time with iroots.org." - Tom Woods
Michael Schueur
a man who has lived, eaten, and slept with the terrorists, has stated the same conclusion as Dr Paul, not Rand, stating they don't want us over there on their land and provoking them militarialy is only making matters worse. Rand, whether you diehard supporters like it or not, is following the Neocom mantra, that we must kill them before they come here and kill us. In reality, Rand is dishonoring his father, because Ron has stated the empirical fact, that we used the Saudis to create Maddrasa's to radicalize them to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan, and this ideology has spread through our created proxy wars. I'm not a great fan of Eisenhower due to many inhumane murderous actions he performed in WWII, but I believe he, much like Gen Smedley Butler had an awakening when he left the military. He began to understand these proxy war creations when he ended the Korean War Truman created, and later warned us about the MIC. Rand uses the same ideology he learned in Medical School, treat the symptoms, instead of looking at what could have prevented the effect. Really most medical doctors are similar to the MIC, they won't make any money unless negative effects occur from bad practices.
I disagree with you
We'd have to ask Mr. Schueur, but I confident if you dig deep into his writings you will see him and Senator Paul make the same points. Sen. Paul is not saying "we have to kill them first." Where did you get that? Did you listen/read this?
"They will never accept us through force of arms....To me, it doesn't make any sense to send American arms, American planes or American troops to aid the Syrian rebels, who are on the same side of that war as Al Qaeda!...In the future, I see less and less likelihood that conventional wars and armies will defeat 50 million Muslims..."

***This ain't neocon speak...it just ain't lol! Sure, it's clever, but it's Ron Paulisms communicated in a way that Republicans can understand in my opinion...

The gop is better off
The gop is better off becoming fossil fuel. I have 0 intentions of wasting my dime or time in the gop ever again. Rand has helped me make this decision. His pandering and his support of the failed drug war and his statements to the right wing nuts. let the right wing nuts be delegates for rand not me.
I am not buying rands BS. Will be voting outside the gop. I DO NOT TRUST RAND PAUL. I am sure plenty of right wing nuts will lineup behind rand. Being a republican is like having to smear shit all over you and then trying to tell folks the shit does not stink. WELL IT STINKS. The best thing for the gop is to become fossil fuel.
Ron Paul 2016
Being a republican is like having to smear shit all over you
That's the truth. And this is why it's so hard to join the GOP, which I did, and many like me, to help Ron get the nomination. Very VERY hard to join the GOP because, Being a republican is like having to smear shit all over you .. and all you have to do is mark the GOP box on the voter registration.
Ron Paul was worth joining the GOP. It was shocking what I found out about my GOP.. about the GOP as a whole, it was all a MSM illusion.. the MSM illusion that Being a republican is like having to smear shit all over you .. the reality is what Ron Paul wanted us to see for ourselves and that's why committees like mine are now Liberty Committees with Tea Partiers, and we all get along and no one is a Bush fan.. Thanks to the seeds Ron Paul planted in the Republican shit, a Liberty tree has taken roots and is growing. Ron Paul knows what to do with shit, plant seeds, the brave and strong seeds that can deal with shit.. whiners over shit don't know what to do with shit besides smear something (under the influence of MSM). :))
Rand's speech is not hate speech.
He is trying to reduce our involvement in the middle east, including cutting foreign aid, preventing wars (Syria, ...), opposing any aid to rebels,etc. Many misunderstand his approach. Basically he is saying any Muslim extremism should be addresses by Muslim countries and not by us, meaning leave them alone. We can do far better by minding our business here at home.
If it is hate speech, he would have joined McCain, Graham and other war mongers in promoting bombing of all those countries.
maybe you missed it
graham is now praising rand.
even earlier rand has gone on the record to say that he wants a "little less aggressive foreign policy." not exactly something to stand up and cheer about eh?
it might not be hate speech, but it sure has stirred the pot.
i would have rather his speech have been on the NSA
Islam literally means 'submission'...
You cannot drink alcohol, you cannot use recreational substances, you must obey your Imam, and if you are a woman you must cover yourself and obey your husband's every command. This according to Sharia Law.
Rock the Casbah? Sharia don't like it.
Not very libertarian. Not very individualist.
Nobody wants war, I certainly don't, but this bs about Islam being off limits to criticism while there is open season on Judaism (ON THIS SITE) is political correct hypocrisy to the fullest.
Down vote all you want but bet you can't show me how Islam itself is consistent with libertarian values.
And I notice when the H-I-Fer trolls start pouring in and mass-down voting other posts. It does not go unnoticed.
PEOPLE OPPOSING TYRANNY - Real Grass Roots!
Are you a POT or a PET - Person Embracing Tyranny?
Islam does mean submission
Submission to what, though? That is the question that must be asked. Islam means to submit oneself to the will of God, much like all monotheists believe in. Islam means to recognize that God has all power and might in the world and one is powerless without Him. One of the most famous phrases in Islamic tradition is "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah," meaning "There is no power or strength, except with God." That is what Muslims believe in when we refer to our relgion as Islam, rather than the idea that our very faith depends on autocratic rulers telling us what to do, how to act, or what to think.
Furthermore, you don't have to obey your Imam, as Islam commands its followers to think for themselves. The Quran calls for people to ponder upon its verses, so mindless obedience is not called for. And if one's husband is doing something wrong, just as in most societies, women have the right not to obey them. Even from what you post, all of this is voluntary and as individuals, you must choose to obey it voluntarily. The Quran states clearly in verse 2:256: "There is no compulsion in religion." Sharia is a way of life, at least, that's what it used to be during the time of the Prophet. Back then there was religious pluralism, and I would even go so far as to state that it was in fact, anarcho-capitalist in its very nature. Tyranny changes the mindsets of those who live under it kind of like Stockholm Syndrome affects its captives.
I think it is horrible that Judaism is attacked. I don't oppose the existence of Israel even, and well, I think it is wrong. We should all seek to learn more about each others' faiths.
BTW, what's Rocking the Casbah?
I am a proud libertarian Muslim.
Here are some awesome Islamic Libertarian links:

Exactly, submission to God,
Exactly, submission to God, and that's not a version of God I'm interested in submitting to.
OK, that's not a problem for me!
I don't proselytize, if that's what you think I'm doing, especially since I know so little about my own faith and I'm certainly not the best at it, so I feel it's hypocritical to do so. Live and let live is my view.

which version then
would you submit to?
each and every religion has their own version
so better make sure which one is right,because the one
you choose just might smite you for your ignorance
or lack of knowledge
If we deny truth before your very eyes,then the rest of what we have to say,is of little consequence
Exactly, again. Enter my
Exactly, again.
Enter my logic for "None of the above".
If judgement day comes you can always argue it's the right answer.
If indeed God hasn't given mankind or the rest of the physical universe an iota of a clue about who he is, or what to believe in, it makes sense that all those who do believe in any version of God will be judged as believing in a false God.
The only right answer is not to believe.
Think about it.
I think very few will actually get this one right.
I think if you fill the slate board of ideas in your head upon which you base your view the universe with objective facts and what is provable, and learn how to live with that, then should you meet God I think he'd be impressed with such an accomplishment. You'll no doubt keep your mind open to new facts. Everyone knows the existence of God can't be proved (or disproved), so lets assume at some point when he does become provable, i.e. you meet him face to face, he'll fit right in. I can't imagine a more thoughtful approach, and certainly any God would be capable of thought and should respect that. It's almost obvious.
Don't do this, if you don't wish to. Keep your beliefs if you wish to. Don't think about it if you don't want to, or if it's not permitted for you to do so, or too dangerous a line of thought, or would be too painful, or too difficult. I'm not looking to argue you out of anything. All I'm saying is to think about it, if you wish, on your own thank you.
Why is it mandatory to be submissive to anything including faith? Does freedom of religion only include those of one faith or another and never the logic that it it may not even exist? Complete lack of faith is considered by all to be devil worship? Lack of believing in heaven or hell and not fearing death is not an option to be respected at all? This is what is wrong with a faith. It is all on "our way" or we are going to "make you believe" or "kill you". Sorry, I too was at one time a believer as a minister until I discovered the cruelty and hypocrisy with most faiths starting with my own. I just could not honestly support it with integrity anymore. I have reverted back to my Native American beliefs that far out weigh the Anglo fallacies and hypocrisies. AT LEAST THEY ARE HONEST.
If I disappear from a discussion please forgive me. My 24-7 business requires me to split mid-sentence to serve them. I am not ducking out, I will be back later to catch up.
I only asked the question
never mentioned mandatory anything
I have studied under most major religions
and I also studied that which isn't,that which isn't
has better information,than say,a bible with whole chapters taken out
and complete books missing
I have looked into things that predate the bibles,and they are a mirror
yes a mirror,so one of 2 things went down,the bible was taken from these
earlier writings (plagiarized)or,the earth is older than the bible records
and the earlier writings is the truth (without the books and crap missing)
I pick no religion over another,to me,they are all wrong and lack truth,sincerity,honesty,and most preachers fall short
I have seen pictures of what looks like helicopters,airplanes,and ships
which predate our told creation
I have seen pictures set in stone of someone flying an air ship,2 to be exact,one found on this continent,one over seas,but how could this be?
the nazca lines have drawings that can only be seen from the air,how did they do it?,and why,for whom?,why does the top look like our own aircraft carriers?
how did they create precise precision lines in granite,when at the time
we are told,they used common stones and wood?
how did them ancient indians mine gold,when all they had were simple tools?
I have seen pictures set in stone from utah,with no explanation
I have read reports of finding jewish carvings/artifacts in the grand canyon
all I do is ask questions,I am a truth seeker,and it is all i want
but what I do believe,we are lied to on a daily basis,the truth is not so
and we are all lead down a winding road of uselessness until we die in futility
why didn't you ask this from the commenter i commented to? this is a better question for me to be answered :)
If we deny truth before your very eyes,then the rest of what we have to say,is of little consequence
Thank you and I apologize my friend
You are right, I will ask that above my friend. I just went with your words man. Your words are most important to you more than me. It is important I think that we not lose objectivity in discussion as this begins to be explored as truth here at the DP. All faiths should be respected and explored as long as they do not try and supersede any other, Or lack there of. Not one of us as individual humans can claim righteousness over one another. We could cure all of this if we chose to respect that ideal. Thank you man.
If I disappear from a discussion please forgive me. My 24-7 business requires me to split mid-sentence to serve them. I am not ducking out, I will be back later to catch up.
well put
respect,I agree,as you already know,religions do not
respect each other,they hate on them
If one does not totally believe in what this one says,they are shunned
I respect all,love all,and try to do no harm.But i will call a spade a spade
if necessary
I do not really care if one picks this over that,but people better make sure
it is the truth that they sell their souls to
have you ever read about solomons ring??,not that you would,but it isn't in the bible
The pope wheres a thing on his lapel,it is 2 keys,this was also in the bible,but no more,wonder what that could mean?
I love to chat with you,but at times you confuse me much like oyate,err smudgepot does
I like bewilderment,but also like to get to the bottom of it,it is after all
a mystery :)
you 2 have the same deal going on,your color,yes that must be it,no,not your
pigment,or lack there of...deeper...much deeper,something connected deeper
naturally maybe IDK :)
If we deny truth before your very eyes,then the rest of what we have to say,is of little consequence
I need to share that it is a common vibration of an atom frequency that has just recently been found in the string theory that binds everything together, both animate and inanimate.
This has been understood as a truth for many thousands of years and no one believed it until recently as science is starting to catch up with what was already known for thousands of years as "harmony" with nature.
Folks have even found that they should tune instruments to the correct frequency cycle to get "in tune" with their surroundings. What happen to Oyate, I miss him.
Last I heard he lost a friend?
If I disappear from a discussion please forgive me. My 24-7 business requires me to split mid-sentence to serve them. I am not ducking out, I will be back later to catch up.
would you say
the truer one is,the better,refined vibration becomes?
the closer one comes to wanting and finding truth,the clearer
the vibration can be?
would these vibrations change in frequency,and frequencies, being a color, can be changed,by oneself
meaning,one who lives a life of lies has a different vibrational pattern
and this can be felt,or "seen",as apposed to one who strives for truth?
Vibrations,to me,come in many forms, color,sound (noise),and feelings, mostly at the same time,ones own reflection,or what others see,is their true self
I have read about the music frequencies,and I must agree with it,some of what is called music,has a way of setting me off,or making me feel good
all this is done on my inside.
I remember sitting in the woods,and just listening to the music,it was so natural,beautiful,i would sit and get lost for hours,then one day,the music left,it was replaced/displaced,but it is not there anymore,the woods i go to,is silent,it makes no music,no noise (other than an occasional animal calling out ,it has no harmony,just a dead eery silence
could you say,the truer you are to yourself,that the more in tune one is
to the real workings of what is really going on?
the oyate is still amongst us,he is SMUDGEPOT, I came in contact with him
(online) unfortunately years back,in another chatroom...what can I say,i pick great friends :) you and him being amongst the few I truly can say that about,must be that vibrational pattern drawing us to each other?
If we deny truth before your very eyes,then the rest of what we have to say,is of little consequence
We are only what our surroundings will allow us to be. We must "hear" and "feel" them to an end, and no matter what that be we must "trust" it. It has worked for me now for a long time. Family and Clan is where we must concentrate our efforts on no matter the faith. Because there are many that will deceive. If we can do this with vigilance, our surroundings become complete and supportive. Tap the drum and make a song to connect and it will help even those that only hear it. Thank you for sharing about our mutual friend.
If I disappear from a discussion please forgive me. My 24-7 business requires me to split mid-sentence to serve them. I am not ducking out, I will be back later to catch up.
I support the 1st Amendment, and every individuals' right to...
Freedom of Religion.
I know Islam means submission to the will of 'Allah' but you cannot deny that Muslims in the USA and elsewhere have attempted to make Sharia Laws hold water in US Courts. The same thing is happening in Europe. It is that way in the middle east.
Sharia don't like it. Rock the Casbah. That's a great song I cannot believe you don't know it.
If you look at the middle east nearly every Muslim nation follows Sharia Law, to varying degrees, but none-the-less. There, the religious institution is the power institution. I have witnessed a little girl being stoned to death, and it was one of the most horrible, disturbing things I've ever seen.
I understand there is a liberty movement in countries like Egypt, and they have been used, and ignored behind the radical Islamists that are backed secretly by NWO/US partners. I support those Muslims who don't want tyranny to reign in their home countries anymore.
As for the Quran/Koran, I understand it in my limited study of it, to be a book of contradiction. Not necessarily a bad thing. One line says one thing, and the next line says.. 'BUT'... and then the opposite. For instance, the notion of, and I'm quoting you not the Quran, "you must choose to obey it voluntarily". That's kind of an oxymoronic statement.
Not that there isn't apparent contradiction in the Torah & Bible.
I really don't have anything against Islam. I have friends from my childhood, who were Muslim, and we got along very well. My camp roommate was Muslim one time as well, we were good friends.
The issue of being theocratic and tyrannical is one that all major religions have been guilty of at one time or another.
Jews, in Biblical times, wiped out all the people of Jericho. Christians have the inquisition. Islam, which is the youngest of all the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, the basis) seems to be still going through those growing pains.
But one major issue with Islam, that leads to radical militant Jihad, is that it preaches that Islam should indeed be spread by force, to the whole world. Christianity has always been about spreading itself, and it used to contradict it's every teaching in order to do that. The real teachings of Yeshua though, were to spread His message with love, not the sword. Christianity has turned that corner. Judaism did long ago. Jews are basically just sitting back waiting for the (return of the) Messiah. (This doesn't mean Jews won't violently defend themselves, and the tiny, only Jewish nation on earth.) As for those 'infidels' who're behind the 'west' attacking, and occupying Muslim nations (not including Israel, but Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.). To me, the war on Islam & the mid-east is a NWO Luciferian/Masonic/Templar plot, and not a Christian or Jewish one. I mean they are killing as many Jews and Christians as they are Muslims. Maybe we, as monotheists, should unite against the NWO? Hmm?
Now, why is it that Islam remains violently radical? Well, the constant attacks on Islamic nations by the west has provided fuel for that fire, no doubt, but what is the spiritual explanation? There is more going on than just retaliation. Islam is the most popular world religion, and it is spreading across Europe, and even the US, like wildfire. Most Muslims are living peacefully in the western world.
Why, still the support for violent Jihad? And worse, totalitarian, theocracies?
Islam preaches to both befriend the infidel, and to kill the infidel.
As I said, the Koran is a book of contradictions. There certainly are some very beautiful poetic verses, and great wisdom in the Quran.
But it is not always consistent with the wisdom that the Freedom Movement holds dear. Being submissive to the Lord G-d Himself, is a good, humble thing. But when Men start claiming to know the Will of G-d, beyond that written in His Word, it usually leads to tyranny. That can be found in any organized religious structure, but right now, the organized religious structure that is killing, and oppressing the most people, is that of radical Islam.
Thanks, for your comments, I hope we can continue to discuss civilly.

Frankfort, Ky. (WYMT) - Former Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Richie Farmer was sentenced to 27 months in federal prison Tuesday.
The former Kentucky basketball star pleaded guilty in September to two counts of misappropriating government resources while overseeing the agriculture department.
Earlier this month, federal prosecutors requested the former Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner be sentenced to 27 months in prison.
Last week, Farmers attorney asked for a shorter sentence for 21 months.
He will spend 27 months in prison, and is required to pay the state $120,500 in restitution.
"I want to say to the people of that state how sorry that I am, and how much they have meant to me and thank them for all the understanding," Farmer told media when leaving federal court Tuesday, "you make bad decisions, poor judgments, and you own up to those mistakes and you move on, and that's what I would hope that the people of the state would be willing to do."
Farmer must report to prison by 1 p.m. March 18th. He has requested he serve time in a prison facility near his home in Clay County.

Interim leader sworn in amid crackdown
CAIRO — A senior judge was sworn in as Egypt's interim president Thursday to replace ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi as the military launched a major crackdown against the Muslim Brotherhood. Reeling from what it called a military coup against democracy, the group said it would not work with the new political system.
The sweep against the Brotherhood leadership included the group's top leader, a figure venerated among its followers, General Guide Mohammed Badie. He was arrested late Wednesday from a villa where he had been staying at a Mediterranean coastal city and flown by helicopter to Cairo, security officials said.

Been awhile since I posted. So much has happened in the last month, it's hard to wrap my brain around it let alone write about it.
I've been told that the post-chemo experience is a head trip. I didn't understand how it could be as difficult as going through chemo but now, I get it. You're stuck in this weird reality – what I call CancerLand – for so many months that you acclimate to it. You're in survival mode. You do what needs to be done. And then you're shoved back into the RealWorld as suddenly as you were dragged out. You feel exposed – literally bare-headed and a vulnerable immune system like a newborn baby. I'm not the same person as I was before – and I don't know who this new person is quite yet. Other cancer patients say it feels like a rebirth which is wonderful and frightening at the same time. I feel happy that I'm done with chemo but scared of my next scans and reports. I feel relieved I get to start "real" life again but nervous I won't have the energy to handle it. I feel excited to embrace life but petrified I'll be told bad news again. I feel a lot of things.
If you know anyone else going through cancer – I hope you don't but let's get real – know that the post-chemo time is very fragile for them. They are physically beaten down, scared to meet with doctors, nervous to socialize and work again. It takes so much energy for us to engage in normal situations because our reserves are low. And our reality was focused on medical crap for so many months, that it takes awhile to adjust to small talk and silly conversations. I can't wait until cancer doesn't come up ONCE in a conversation. Joy!
All in all, I'm doing okay physically although I tire very easily. I keep having to adjust how much I do. If I go overboard, I can't get out of bed the next day. It's very difficult for me to hold myself back from going full steam ahead. But from what I understand, I'm in much better shape than most at this point. Fingers are slowly improving, hair/eyebrows/eyelashes are coming back! Like little flowers bursting out of the ground after a long winter. Never thought I'd be so happy to see eyelashes. Never cared for make-up before but now I can't wait to wear mascara – simply because I CAN.
The hardest part is realizing that I'm not like the rest of the world anymore. Not even like other cancer patients due to this lame Lynch gene. I was at a workshop this weekend and one of the speakers happened to be from the organization, Nine Girls Ask? which was started by a woman who had ovarian cancer. Before the founder spoke, they showed a video with scary a*& stats, stuff I didn't know. Things I wish I didn't have to know. I don't want to share them with you because they are pretty horrific. Of course, I was so thrown off guard that I started crying. Wondering again if I'm ready for the "real" world. Of course, people were so understanding. And the founder was thrilled that I had been given the chemo comfort bag that her organization creates. But I was a wreck afterwards. You can only imagine what it would be like to learn all these disheartening facts just weeks after ending chemo.
All this is heavy on the heart and the mind. But then I think about how the doctors told me I'd never heal ulcerative colitis – but I did anyway. Those numbers are just numbers, that's it. Dying young just isn't my style anyway. I've always seen myself becoming a feisty, old lady. I just need to hang onto that vision, the same way I held onto being healthy when I was sick in my twenties. I just pictured it, over and over and OVER again. Until it became true. I defied their predictions before, and I can do it again.
Fuck statistics. I'm not going anywhere for a REALLY long time. I can do this.

First of all the most important thing....today is my daughter's birthday, a whopping 8 years old. This is my second, the middle of 3. She was my rough start baby. First she needed just a little help getting going, then her blood sugar kept crashing over and over. Finally she stabilized and now she is our wild one :). She is sweet, kind and loving unless you make her mad then watch out cause this kitten has claws! She's the one who brought home a citation from school for kicking a boy who threatened her, she didn't just kick, she kicked where it counts. When my husband and I stopped laughing (quietly, to ourselves) we had a long talk about getting an adult and telling them what happened and that it is not appropriate to kick a child at school. Later we were discussing it again and said "at least she knows how to defend herself", somehow she overheard that (she was supposed to be asleep in bed) and is still proud of the fact that she knows how to defend herself. We love our little bug and hope she has a terrific birthday (with her fave foods and a homemade cake).
Today was our long awaited grocery shopping day...we'd been "making do" for about a week. Eating from carefully planned, inexpensive meals without much in the way of extras as we waited for funds for shopping, but we made it, nobody was even close to starving although the kids thought they might-lol.
All weekend I sat and planned meals. Putting in many of the family's favorites along with a few new things. Then I sat down and planned uber-healthy side dishes for each regular meal so that my family can start being introduced to new things and maybe like them! Armed with my extensive shopping list the whole family headed out.
First stop, Sprouts, our only health food type store. Lots and lots of produce on the list. Lots of lettuce for salads, some peppers, some zucchini and radishes, and green onions and yellow and sweet onions (I really like onions and things with onions in it-lol), carrots (huge bag), celery, tomatillos and a jalapeno. Blueberries!! Those weren't even on my list, but my husband saw them for .88 a carton so we grabbed two! Don't know what we'll make, but it'll be yummy :). Let the kids pick a treat from the bulk bins and spent a total of $26.12 on lots of healthy veggies.
On to the regular market....spent a lot, I mean A LOT more there. I HAVE to find some cheap meals besides spaghetti! First, girlie REALLY wanted Mc D's for her birthday, we said no, first, really trying to avoid places like that and second, couldn't afford it anyways...so no Mc D's but we told her she could have everything LIKE Mc D's, just made at home. Hamburgers, Chicken Nuggets and French Fries. Hamburger is REALLY expensive. We found a list that Win-Co (where we shop) does not put slime in their store meat. Still, just for tonight's burgers I couldn't find a good pack that was even close to the price we needed, but we did find a pack of six preformed patties made from ground chuck (not "hamburger") and was a reasonable price for exactly what we needs (just six patties, not 4 pounds (too much) or 1 pound (not enough). I make really yummy chicken strips very much like you can get eatting out, but she didn't want those, so I conceded to a pack of pre-made chicken nuggets that are fresh, no preservatives and as unoffensive as such a product can be and still be somewhat affordable. French fries are the frozen variety, but going in the oven, not a fryer. So, her desired meal is not perfect, but as good as I can get and still meet her birthday requirements.
We spent plenty in other areas....and I didn't even buy much meat. Spent a bit on a pack of two Pork roast which will become two seperate meals, but were a really good price. Some chicken, and then all the things we need for snacks and lunches for a week with 3 kids home all day. I'm not used to that grocery bill. But, I did do really well, I think. We had to stock up on a lot of basics from the baking isle so that adds up fast. My kids are firmly planted in the white bread world, so I bought a loaf of bread just one step up from there. Still white bread, but with some grains attached to the outside crust. This is the first step in trying to convince the kids that real bread is still yummy. Peanut butter, I've been buying a brand called Simply Jif or Jim Simple, something like that. It is a step between all natural and regular pb. Another step in the right direction without shocking my kids. I tried jumping into all-natural pb and they kind of balked at it, we'll get there.
Cheese, okay, here is my cheese story. I like sharp cheddar because it simply has a better flavor. Side by side in the case are Tillamook and Store brand. I pick up both and hold them side by side. I'm looking at the 2 pound block and Tillamook is $8 something, Store brand $5 something. Roughly $3 difference. I really wanted to buy the store brand and save those $3. Here's the thing though, I hadn't researched the store brand. Tillamook says right on the package every ingredient, including that the milk comes from non-hormone cows and that the rennet is not animal based and that they use Annato which, while still a dye, is all natural, not a chemical dye. The store brand did not list a single ingredient. NOT ONE. How is this possible. I guess "cheese is cheese" and they don't have to list the ingredients. I don't know how they don't have to list the ingredients. They did list the nutritional info, big whup. So, I'm standing there with two blocks of cheese in my hand and trying to decide. I've kind of always had this "cheese is cheese" kind of mentality. But, what if, the store brand used hormone milk? I have two young girls and while "studies" show no difference, there is evidence that hormone laden milk does have a negative impact on young girls. What if instead of a natural dye they used a chemical one? What if animal rennet makes a difference? Now, becoming a full vegetarian is not at the top of my priority list, but again, there is more and more evidence that an animal based diet is not the best way to go. If I can cut one animal based product out of our diet and it is an easy switch I've been tending to go with it. I'm not seeking out cheeses made with one or the other, but there were my two choices, with or without? Which one do you think went in my cart? I'm such a sucker for a brand name and an ingredients list.
We spent a bit TOO much and might be eating spaghetti twice a week for the rest of the month, but my choices were deliberate and more informed than ever before. Now, to just make everything and keep on track and see what happens. Hope my family likes at least SOME of the good stuff :).
OH!!! The real coup and it may not seem huge and really I haven't read the label so I'm not certain what we've actually got here, but this is what hubs did....The kids wanted a juice box type drink...they were asking for Mondos which are kool-aid in a plastic bottle with a twist off top. I told him he could decide on that and went to the bread isle. When we started loading the stuff on the belt was the first time I saw his choice...Minute Maid flavored water drinks. Okay, good pick over the Mondos....I'm impressed :). They might not be perfect, but they are much better than what the kids were asking for. It's wearing off :).
First, sorry, I haven't been around much this week. It is the first week of all the kids being off school for the summer and we've been playing lazy . Several kids stayed in jammies all day off and on throughout the week. The house has been pretty thoroughly trashed. Yesterday was our first effort to actually get things done and last night through tomorrow morning the kiddies have all gone off to Camp Grandma's House . That gives me some good alone time and some time to get things back in order for the long, hot summer.
When I say we've been playing lazy I did exaggerate a little. We haven't done any "chores" and the kiddies have pretty much had free reign in t.v. and computer usage. I'm calling it "vacation". Chances are we aren't going anywhere this year so this is our major break from reality, Monday things go back to "normal" except no school. I, however, have not been completely slothful!! Check out my fitness tracker and you'll see... Monday=JM 30-day Shred and additional Strength Training. Tuesday=went for a run/walk and JM 30 DS. Wednesday=30 DS and ST. Thursday=run and 30 DS. Today, nothing yet, but will be doing ST and probably 30 DS.
I thought that Jillian was insane when she said do the program every day...but it's doable. I added additional ST because I just wasn't feeling lasting effects and I've been increasing the amount of weight I use on almost everything, even just for one set, because I'm not getting SORE. Just to be clear, I'm not seeking to be so sore that I can't move, but I know what worked muscles feel like and I can add a little weight here and there so that I can just barely squeeze out the last two repetitions of any given exercise. I see it as a good thing that when I am done I am worked, sweaty and tired, but when I wake up in the morning I feel ready to go again. I am not going above 5 pounds on 30 DS since I do it every day (except Sunday and occasionally I do listen to my body and decide that I am actually tired and deserve 1 additional rest day, but those are farther apart then they used to be). Thursday's "run" was the first one in a long time that was more run than walk. Instead of being too much this regimen of exercise has given me more energy. My shift in thinking is that many of my previous "I'm too tired" days, were really just "I'm too lazy and/or I'm not really ready to commit to a firm schedule" days. Now, even when I'm feeling a little too tired I make myself do it and I CAN.
I've been bit by the Pinterest bug and have been spending some time (not too much) browsing blogs and pinning away. My "Food, Glorious Food" board has WAAAAY too many pins to keep it straight any more and I'm in the process of dividing it up into multiple boards. "Drink Me", "Very Veggie", "Breaking Bread", "Mighty Main Dishes (or something like that) and "Special Treats". Oh, and "Feeling Dippy"-lol (I kind of like that title). Very Veggie has a lot of pins in it and I am always pleased to find another healthy side dish I can add to Very Veggie. This morning my husband made oatmeal for breakfast. Instead of the Steel Cut I make for myself he made the Quick Oats that everyone eats when we have oatmeal. What I discovered is that I PREFER the Steel Cut Oats. They simply taste better and I can add less (much less) sugar. Has anyone noticed that quick oats can be slightly bitter? I haven't noticed that in steel cut (maybe it's me though). Today I was browsing through some recipes and my family loves Chicken Pot Pie and I am always looking for a better recipe than the one I have. This one post had "Easy Chicken Pot Pie"...okay I thought...my recipe is kind of complicated and a bit time consuming maybe an "easy" recipe will be better. I started looking at the ingredients....Pillsbury refrigerated crusts was first. Okay, no problem I would probably still make my own. Now that I have a food processor that will do the "cutting in" of the butter making a crust is no problem. I've used my share of Pillsbury crusts and probably will again in the future. I usually use them when I'm making pies for special occasions just so that there is consistency in the crust (I'm by no means a crust pro and my crusts can be inconsistent). So, while spending extra for a pre-made crust isn't for me, that was an easy to look past item. Down the list a couple of items though was the deal breaker....2 cans Campbell's Condensed Cream of Chicken soup. I stopped reading the recipe there and moved on. After clicking away I realized that in the past this would not have been a deal breaker. In fact I have several cans of Cream of Chicken and Cream of Mushroom in my cupboard. But, I don't know what I'll ever do with them. I should just take them to a food bank and donate them. There is only one recipe we still make that uses Campbell's anything...Souper Burgers using condensed tomato soup. Those condensed soups are horrible. BPA lined cans, sodium through the roof and more chemicals than I can count. When did my bias against Campbell's happen? I grew up eating Campbell's. I've made numerous casseroles coated in cream of chicken. The cans in my cupboard have been there over a year untouched. Souper burgers are just a version of sloppy joe, bet I can find a good recipe for that too. Shift in thinking...REAL food simply tastes better than chemical food or overly processed foods. Steel cut TASTES better than Quick Cooking. No matter how easy it is Chicken Pot Pie should be made with REAL Chicken simmered in a pan with real herbs to create a sauce based in reality rather than chicken bits that are dehydrated and mixed with MSG and a bunch of other chemicals. While I am FAR from perfect and don't even consider myself a "clean" or even a "whole foods" eater, I'm shifting my thinking.
Today, on FB a friend in a group who all do 30 DS posted that she hasn't been on a scale since starting the program 6 weeks ago and was disappointed to see a GAIN in weight even after all her work. Now, I'm not privy to her eating habits, but she also posted her husband's response. He told her she was definitely more toned now than 6 weeks ago and reminded her that she had mentioned that her clothes were fitting better. I posted that I would bet that had she weighed in between she would have seen a drop that would have gone up again due to the muscle she is building. This is the rest of what I posted "One thing I have to tell myself OVER AND OVER is that what you can accomplish with your body is more important than how much it weighs. Six weeks ago how much of Level 1 could you do without feeling like you were dying? How much of Level 1 can you do now? Do you have more energy to spend on the things that are most important? Before you stepped on the scale did you feel better about yourself? Those are the important things. Weight is only a portion of the puzzle and one that will fall into place the more you keep with this. All that muscle you added is working hard every minute of the day to replace any fat you might have. Keep it up and you'll keep seeing the most important changes in how you feel and how your clothes fit." And I believe every word. I've had more than my share of ups and downs and disappointments and failures. Somewhere in all of that there was a shift in thinking. "What you can do with your body is more important than what it weighs." Now, a bit of a clarification, there is kind of a big Catch-22 here for lots of us. Being too heavy can certainly impede what you can do and that sucks because really, being fit is not all about size, but some equipment and rides and airplanes and such are all built for a certain sized person, so there are limitations here. But, I truly believe that what you can do is more important than what you weigh. Now, the goal is to get the weight to a point where it doesn't interfere with those abilities. That's the catch, I do HAVE to lose some of this weight in order to do some of the things I want to do. For me the statement isn't entirely, 100% true, but true enough to keep me on track. I've done my share of "I can't ever...". In order to get to the point where I will work out no matter what I had to experience the shift in thinking that resulted in "what you can do with your body is more important than what it weighs." The part that goes on the end is the key to the whole thing...."Keep it up and you'll keep seeing the most important changes in how you feel and how your clothes fit." Those changes, the energy level, the clothes fitting, how I feel about myself, are the most important changes. I still want the scale to move, but I have come to accept that the scale moving is a side-effect of everything else and not the catalyst. The catalyst for change is ME, not the scale, it doesn't have that much power.
My thinking is shifting and I'm hopeful that it is the kind of shift that results in lasting and positive changes that will last a life time.
I was a busy, crazy, hectic week, but I made it through!! Yay me :)!! School is now out for the summe and I'll have my hands full with 3 kids 9, 8, and 5 all day long, but it's a good thing :). I'm busy making big plans for the summer and we'll see how much of it we do. Morning picnics at the park (because evening picnics are just too dang hot), continued studies for the kids (they won't like that, but one just barely made it through the 2nd grade and staying up on her studies over the summer will go a long ways), swimming in the pool and crafts and games. Hoping it'll be a great summer.
I did finish the aprons for the teachers, they turned out great and the teachers all loved their gift. The pics aren't awesome, but here they are...I took them at 12:30 last night after finishing ironing them (which I burned my hand doing). Still on the ironing board...this was the last one finished....here are all four neatly folded and ready for gift bags. . The pink in the upper left corner didn't show up very well...it is the same light pink as one of the blue calicos and the trim is pink and white gingham.
So, it was SO NICE to get those done and delivered. Since my cutting board and table were already set up I made progress on my next project...my race shirt quilt!! I thought I was still a long ways from being able to get it done, but I've been cutting shirts like crazy and I'm only a few shirts from having a 20 square quilt (4 squares by 5 squares). I'm putting strips of cloth between each square so the finished size will be pretty big-about 60" by 74". Plenty of room to snuggle under (maybe even enough room for two) and plenty big for a picnic in the park if we want. I originally thought that I would need to use the backs of the shirts to utilize some of the space, but I guess I have more shirts than I thought-lol! There are three shirts left to cut (in the wash pile or hiding in a drawer..if they aren't in the two loads in progress I'll have to empty the drawers to find them-oops) and four that I won't be cutting, but I have a plan for that too. For the four I won't cut I'm going to use the computer transfer paper that is available almost everywhere and scan either the design on the shirt, pull the design from on-line if available or scan the bib from that race and transfer the design to fabric to create the square for the shirts I won't cut. I refuse to cut them because they are all tech fabric and a) I love them for running and working out and b) I've never worked with tech fabric and I'm a little worried what will happen to it when I start cutting (I'm sure it would work fine, but why ruin a perfectly wonderful shirt to find out). All of that together, the ones I already cut, the three I have still to cut and the four I'll be representing with the transfer gives me 18 shirts. Tomorrow I get shirt 19, that leaves only one more shirt to obtain and that will happen in November if not sooner. I'm really enjoying working on this project and can't wait to see the finished quilt...I'll post a pic when it is done :).
So, obviously I have a race tomorrow. It's Idyllwild, this will be the third year doing this one and I'm not going to PR or anything, I just want to use it as a training run and have a good day :). The race in November is one I'm REALLY looking forward to. It's called The Color Run. Has anyone heard of these? It looks like such a BLAST. thecolorrun.com/
Basically, every Kilometer you are pelted with colored powder (page says basically colored corn starch, completely non-toxic, you could eat it, but it is not yummy). By the end of the race you are a colorful mess :). Can't wait for that one :)
In between tomorrow and November are a couple of races I hope I get to do. We'll see.
Oh, quickly, back to tomorrow's race. SO....couldn't really afford it, my mom is covering the cost and we aren't even camping like we usually do, just headed up the mountain tomorrow, just for the race. Anyways, we've been discussing this one around the house for a few weeks and my daughter, K, the darn near 8 year old (10 days away), kept asking if she was going to be able to run it. I kept telling her that the answer was "probably not". So, today, my mom was over for piano lessons (she is teaching my two oldest) and we were discussing plans for tomorrow and finally came to the conclusion that mom would pay for the two girls and we would car pool up so everyone could attend and the girls could run. The youngest said she wanted to run if her sister was. I am SO proud of my little runner, basically demanding that she get to run this one. She and her sister ran this one last year as their first race. Now it will be their 5th!! Wow!! So impressed with my little runners.
Okay, that's enough babbling for now...time for dinner. :) Have a great weekend everyone :)!!
Okay sparkers, here's the scoop.
I am SO thankful for everyone's comments on my last blog, your support and comments mean SO much to me. I felt like an evil hag for "unfriending" someone who was never a good friend to start with and through her actions showed that she had no interest in actually being a "friend". So....onward...that was DAYS ago.
Saturday was kind of a rough day, but after an okay run and blasting out some 30-day shred I felt a bit better. Sunday was just a nice relaxing day.
Monday....Monday was great. Some of you have already read about the challenge I'm doing right now...my sis 4everadonegirl has already mentioned it twice in her blogs, for those of you who haven't heard...I just started a challenge that will last all summer.
My sister, myself, my mother, one of my nephews and his wife, another niece-in-law, a friend of my sis' and Angela (AWEISE) all started a challenge. Several of us have been doing a biggest loser type challenge among us that was weight loss based and had a points system that could give a player a SLIGHT boost. I lost every time :(, kind of a bummer and one of those things that just doesn't help you move forward.
So, as the most recent challenge was ending my mom, sis, Angela and I took a nice hike and while we hiked we chatted about the next challenge we would do. We all agreed that doing a challenge based on points only might be a good idea. And so, the challenge was born. We discussed several ground rules during the hike and after several weeks of e-mailing ideas and thoughts back and forth we came up with a plan that has all of us beyond excited about this challenge. Here's the scoop...
There will be three "tests" throughout the course of the challenge, at the start, mid-point and end. The challenge will run from Memorial Day until Labor Day, we are calling July 4th mid-point. The test was pretty basic. We listed several items to choose from and each participant just had to choose one item from Cardio, Lower body, Upper body and Core. For example Cardio you could choose a timed mile to run, walk or ride a bike, run stairs up and down for 1 minute counting how many steps were covered, or do jumping jacks for 1 min.
Personally, I did the mile (17:34...really slow and shin splints slowed me down even more-ack), Upper body I did two choices, but only one counted towards the challenge. I did biceps curls with 5 pound weights (42 in 1 minute) and triceps extentions using 10 pounds (32 in 1 min.). Lower body I also did two choices, step-ups (38 in 1 min.) and squats (37 in 1 min.). For Core I did a plank for 62 seconds.
It was a FUN morning doing the testing. Most of us gathered at the college track to do the testing. Unfortunately, the track was LOCKED, that's never happened before. Luckily the parking lot was nice and empty and we were able to track out a mile and do all our testing despite the track being closed.
After testing the idea was to evalutate how you did and set goals for the end of the challenge. They had to be measurable and challenging.
The goals I came up with were to increase my biceps curls to 8 pounds and keep the number of curls the same. I figure I could go faster, but probably at the cost of form, increase my number of step-ups from 38 to 43 (an increase of 5), reduce my mile time to 16 minutes, and increase my plank time to 1 and a half minutes.
At the half way point if any of the goals are too easy I have the option of reevalutating and increasing the goals.
So, that is part one....the rest of the challenge consists of earning points. Points are earned as follows: Max 5 points per week for cardio (1 point per session 20 min and over). Max 3 points each week for strength. Max 7 points per week for water (one point per day at 64 ounces or more). If you earn 10 points doing any combo of the above you are eligible for extra credit. Up to 5 points per week for a variety of tasks. Some choices include going for a swim, play in the park, run a race or review a healthy recipe. Different activities carry different point values. You can mix and match for up to 5 points.
Person with the most points in the end wins. In the event of a tie there will be a fitness face-off. An activity will be drawn from a jar and whoever outlasts the other in that activity triumphs.
I love that this challenge is focused on us getting healthier as opposed to simply lighter. Healthy is the main goal anyways, right?
So, the challenge is keeping me jumping (literally-lol). This week is also the last week of school. I've been spending my days in the kids' classrooms helping with all the end of year activities. Kindergarten had "field day", which doesn't so much involve the field, but does involved all six Kinder classes rotating through different activities hosted by the different teachers. 2nd grade has their ice cream party tomorrow and Kinder has promotion. So it's been a crazy week.
On top of ALL that I've been regretting that I couldn't afford a good end of year gift for our teachers, then yesterday I was talking to a friend before school and she suggested I make aprons for them. MONTHS ago we were chatting and I mentioned that I had made the girls some aprons and was thinking about trying to make a little extra money making and selling aprons. That's a GOOD friend right there. She remembered something I said in passing.
AWESOME IDEA so I rushed home, pulled out the fabric and started sorting, washing, pinning and cutting. Several years ago, when my husband's grandmother died, I inherited her fabric stash, so I had several options and that was good, because these are the full aprons and use A LOT of fabric, my stash is MUCH smaller now. But, I am halfway through all the aprons. I only have 3 kids, but 1 of them has 2 teachers, so that means 4 aprons. I should be done by Friday though. If I quit typing and get back to work-lol.
So, I'm a busy, busy girl, but I'll be back doing some reading and another post on Friday after I'm done sewing. (If I post 3 times this week it is worth 5 extra credit points-lol.)
Hope everyone is having a great week and enjoying the last bit before summer starts in earnest. Be back soon :).
Please tell me, is this funny?
Here's the story.
There is this person on Facebook who has been my friend. I don't really know her all that well or remember her, but we have quite a few friends in common (we all have those, right?). This was her post today. I saw and thought, you know, really, not that funny, but I chose to just go forward with my life and brush it off, much as I do for many posts that are supposed to be funny, but really aren't.
Well, another person commented that she didn't think it was funny. The posters daughter started chiming in with quite rude comments and it was kind of going back and forth, so I decided it was time to chime in and point out that this kind of post is bullying in disguise. It is intended to be funny, but somewhere an overweight young woman has just been wounded because the high school bully posted it to her page (with the express intent of doing harm).
There are all kinds of things out there like this. Things that are intended to be funny, but then someone uses it as a weapon and we can see that it isn't funny at all. Just like a super realistic toy gun is funny until a cop accidentally kills someone because he thought it was real and it was just kids playing. Weapons come in all kinds of packages some of them are blatant some of them are very covert and sly.
Still, I wasn't that offended until.....and I really wish I hadn't already unsubscribed and unfriended this person so I could directly post exactly what she said, but you'll have to take my word for it.
She responded with the idea that people just need to learn to laugh at themselves, that it is just a joke.
I responded with my very heartfelt and tearful/emotional reply...that having been called a whale to my face that NOBODY ever does that as a joke or to be funny. It it ALWAYS inteded to be an insult. I explained about being a happy person and how I've accomplished so many things that other people my size don't even try.
She came back again with it was only insulting because I CHOSE to take it that way and that if I learn to laugh at myself I'll be a happier person.
Guess what...I a happier person because she is no longer my friend. Oh, if you want to send her a FB message her name is **** ********( decided to remove the name) and she lives in SAN JACINTO, CALIFORNIA (did I just go too far...okay, don't send her any messages.)
I did go on to post on my FB page that Bullies always find a way to justify their actions.
Am I right here? Because, really, I do laugh at myself A LOT. Ask anyone who actually knows me. I am a very funny person. I say that somewhat faceciously, but really, it is one of those things we were talking about just the other day. A very dry sense of humor runs throughout the family and I would say things I didn't think were really that funny, but my co-workers were constantly laughing and we had a blast at work because we all shared a similar sense of humor. I would totally dead-pan a comment and every head would whip around and then everyone would crack up because of the statement and because it came from me...the most conservative member of the staff. In addition....I am a very clumsy person, I always have been, it's just one of those things, and yes, I spent enough moments simply mortified because I had once again done something rididculous in public. Well, eventually, I did learn to laugh at myself and being clumsy is really funny lots of the time, mostly because it never results in more than a bruise. I guess God determined that if clumsy was going to be a weakness, strong bones would have to be a strength.
However, being fat...I really have a hard time finding anything funny about it. We all know the problems, the cost (economic, emotional and physical), the stress, the feelings....We all know what we go through and we all know how we each got here. Everyone's story is different and every story is valid. Nobody (well, with the exception, recently, of some stupid trainers) sits down one day and decides they are going to get fat. For the majority of us there was a moment, for some of us several moments, when our lives changed and part of the result of that change was being overweight. Everyone here struggles with changing that part of their lives and everyone here knows that it is not an easy battle.
This particular topic is very sensitive right now....a very large part of why I wasn't here for so long was a personal battle with my own fight. I feel very much right now that I will NEVER be able to effect the changes I am looking for. It seems no matter what I do, what I try, how hard I work, it makes NO difference. Being hypothyridic makes it even harder. It's that demon I've been battling lately.
So, when someone posts something specifically insulting to fat people I do tend to take it personally and I can't laugh at it.
Am I wrong? Do I need to lighten up? Is this actually funny and I'm way off base?

"Just OK"
I was looking forward to this book because I have enjoyed Larry Niven's other books, but this one just seemed to wander around a bit. I knew it was a bit dated when I got it and I was able to get around the the 20th century technology. In the end it just kind of fizzled. I didn't realize I had reached the end of the book until I heard "epilogue". I was thinking these was another part to go.
"Just wish it was longer"
As a fan of the Camel Club series I enjoyed the book and Ron McLarty's reading. Cassidy was OK but her acent was way too southern for West Virginia. Sounded more like Mississippi. I don't care much for the sound effects or background music.
The story could easily have been another Cameal Club book so if you like that series you will like this book.
"Not what I expected, but better!"
I thought I was getting a novel about The Battle of Franklin. What I got was a compelling novel that describes the lives of the individuals and families just before, during and years after the battle. This was a very enjoyable book. I especially liked the multiple readers reading the different characters.
Now that I've finished the book I want to go visit Franklin, TN and places where this story came from.

Rate Dr. Heidi Crayton
Dr. Heidi Crayton's Ratings
Dr. Crayton has been my neurologist for about 4 years. She gives a very comprehensive exam. (and I had another neurologist before her so I have a comparison). She is willing to be flexible in my very unusual situation, but always keeps to her professional judgment and standards. She is also really nice, listens well, and does not rush you at all.

I had been going to a former colleague of her's at Georgetown University Hospital and made the switch because her suburban practice was cheaper and more convenient. She is thorough and likable in the examination room and answers emails, but I sometimes don't believe her pronouncements, such as "buzzing in the ears is a very rare MS symptom." And you know that because...? I was also told MS doesn't cause pain. Yeah, right. I wish I had a template I could place over the heads of such doctors. Anyway..she does not participate with my plan so visits are expensive. There was a staff shake-up soon after I started going to her infusion center where I get my monthly medication. That was discouraging because I really liked the staff who I thought were capable and nice. I was told it was a move to save money. Meanwhile, the infusion nurses who work on a parttime and rotating basis are still nice. The lady at the front desk is a little bossy. Not appreciated. So there.

I highly recommend Dr. Crayton. She is extremely knowledgable and takes time to explain everything. The office staff is very friendly and professional. It was definitely worth my having to drive over an hour to the office!
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][569652].votes_count ]]
Dr. C is absolutely the best neurologist that I have ever had in my entire life dealing with Multiple Sclerosis. I have had some bad neuro's before her, but she is totally worth the 1.5 hour drive to her office. I you have dealt with Greater DC area traffic, you understand. In all honesty, if I had to, I would WALK/Crawl to her office. I truly Trust Dr. Crayton with my life and I knew that she was the Dr. for me when she interacted with my wife well, unlike some of the other neuro docs closer to home. I would also say that since she ONLY deals with MS patients, she certainly knows more about how the disease may progress.

Boerne, TX United States
OCO Architects
The sole library in Boerne, Texas, a community just west of San Antonio,
exists in harmony with the city's renowned bucolic surroundings. The LEED
Gold certified library is enveloped by a park-like setting, purposefully
sited along a creek to the east which gives library visitors an opportunity
to enjoy that natural area, a precious sight in parched Central Texas. The
building includes expansive windows on the eastern side that showcase the
creek, stately Live Oak trees, and wooded Hill Country vistas beyond. The
architects oriented many of the programmed spaces, such as the internet
cafe, quiet room, meeting rooms, reading areas, and a screened-in balcony
eastward to highlight the unbroken panoramic landscape, keeping service
desks and support areas necessarily near the main entrance on the western
side. Outdoor seating arrangements and terraces encourage readers to
take activities outside in pleasant weather. In this sunny climate, building
shade structures and preserving the existing leafy Live Oaks was essential to
designing usable outdoor space. Materials provide a more subtle connection
to the region: indigenous limestone comprises both exterior and interior walls
and reclaimed regional Longleaf Pine is used in pivot walls that enhance
functionality. Cisterns tie the creekside views back to the importance of water
conservation. In these ways the library succeeds in connecting Boerne to
its most striking feature: the celebrated Texas Hill Country that begins right
outside its windows.
