I will know you have lost it all (guessing about $1200.00 plus your vespa and x-box) and are living behind the dumpster between jcp and rsh. Enjoy your recovered donuts.
"between jcp and rsh"
Your comparison of JCP and RSH was just a Freudian slip - but accurate.
It is my opinion that the Freudian theory is completely subjective, rather than objective; being that the theory is based on his personal experience... What say you?

a word of advice, LOL
Every time I think I'm being so smart, I get walloped upside the head by Reality. So I thought I'd share some advice in case any of you have a problem. LOL.
Problem one...I'm old and forget things.
Problem two...Fibromyalgia causes short term memory loss.
I like excuse #2 better actually.
Last year when I packed away my too-much-Christmas stuff,
I made a list of what I stored where. Because the year before I forgot some stuff that was in under-the-bed bins!
If my Christmas decor could all be in ONE area, I wouldn't have a problem. But its not, and I do. A bonus of buying stuff on sale after the season, is I take pictures to show you guys, and that gives me a record of new purchases during the year. And I find room to put it in one of the Christmas closets... or my reg. closet, and we won't talk about that disaster right now. Tho I may have to get rid of my clothes.
But apparently my 'smartness' stopped at Christmas. I've been going nuts the past few days trying to find some of my Fall decor. Its stored in too many places, but I don't have one big place for it. Still I was sure I knew where it all was. Till I remembered my 3 newest pieces I got several months ago at Hobby Lobby when they put stuff out early for fools like me. I came home, and showed you, this
Then I "lost" it. I've looked high and low for it. Its not small enough to lose, darn it. In desperation I started looking on the pantry shelves where I keep Spring holiday decor. Don't ask why, but it was by the Easter stuff. Along with two acorn bowls I'd bought and totally forgotten all about.
My advice is to not stick stuff any place there's room,
and if you do, write down where you stick it.
Someone please remind me of this next year, when the sales
start!! In fact, remind me NOT to even buy MORE stuff!!
Oh wait, I forgot who I'm talking to here!! Enablers R Us.
hugs from frazzled Karen
Too funny, Karen. There is an upside to short term memory loss though--when you happen to run across something you've stashed away, it makes you feel excited and happy all over again! ;o)
Those fall items are much too pretty to forget--and acorn bowls, now how could you forget those? ;o)
Can't wait to see your home all decorated for Fall, you always do such a nice job of it and have so many pretty things.
Funny Karen..
I do have to agree with Luvs tho...
Forgetting where you stashed something, then come across it, when NOT hunting for it..makes it 'New All Over Again'!
Glad you did find them because that becomes so frustrating.
I'm still looking for 'Gold Candles' I bought, to go with two Christmas Angels that I got for my DD, over 10 yrs ago.
I still feel frustrated over never finding them!
Karen,I can totally relate to everything you just said. A few years ago, on a trip, I bougth aMatchbox" sized pueter (sp) nativity scene to use with my Santa doll house which a dear friend had given me a kit to make. I was so pleased to find it. I brought it home in a small sized bag and statched it in the cornor of my cabinet. Then a few mounths later, when cleaning out the cupbards, I remember tossing a little bag in the trach, only to later (. to late to retrieve it) remember what was in the little bag. Seems like I spend half of my time hunting for things I put up in a "safe"place and a lot of the time I never see them again. Funny though, anything that I would like to lose, sticks like glue.HA Janet
Oh Janet, that is so sad you tossed the tiny pewter set..
you must've been really upset with yourself. I'd have been
in tears for sure.
I have learned since the Fibro took over, that anything I put in a SAFE place is only safe from ME finding it again!
Right now I don't know whether to cry or laugh, or beg someone to shoot me! After being happy I found the 3 Fall hanging things, it dawned on me I haven't run across a pair of Pheasants that are about a foot long each. I bought them off eBay the first of the year. How do I lose BIG things like that? So the past hour I've been looking everywhere I could think of, and some places twice. To my dismay, I found another BIN of Fall stuff stored up on top a pantry cabinet in the laundry room. I do not need another BIN to unpack or decorate with. This stuff must be multiplying like my bunnies is all I can say! I have GOT to stop buying any more stuff the rest of this year,
and stay away from Jan. sales! Somebody needs to lock me
in my room to insure that!
hugs, krazy ol' Karen
Oh, Karen, I feel for you! I have the same problem, but mine came from my brain swelling when I went eclamptic when I was 7 months pregnant with Emily. I forget the darnedest things! But, like you, I've found that this forum has helped a lot. I now take pics of every new dec I buy. Although I post most of them eventually here, what's really helped is filing them in my Photobucket albums. I have folders for everything! In fact, just yesterday as I was filing pics of the new Halloween decs I bought, I found a pic of a Fall serving dish that I'd bought last early-December at GW and forgot!
I'm so happy that you finally found your lost decs. What about a (1" or so) ring binder or notebook that you can keep in your kitchen and write down your decs and where they're stored? Or, better yet, start a list on your computer. My family calls me the List Lady . . . and I am. I don't think I could function well with out them! At the very least, I'd embarrass myself even more than I already do ;^D
Karen, sounds like you fit right in here after reading all the posts and saying to myself, been there, done that.LOL I hope you find your pheasants before long too.
I have started reorganizing my decorations and that is going to help me alot. However, after I got home last night I noticed one of my shelves leaning way to far. So I had to unload it and DH came to my rescue and beefed it up. We had some things on those shelves we are no longer using so he hauled them out to the large shop so now I can bring in more. Yipee
Janet, sad story but I bet you look before you toss any little bags again right away.
Karen, thank you for this! I often have to look back at last years pictures to make sure I'm not imagining that I bought something or had something.
But, there is also that problem, if I DO have it & I'm NOT imagining it, then WHERE is it???
I think we all have the same problem, if we could put all fall things in one place & every other season & holiday too, then we wouldn't lose so many things, but like you, I come home with some new stash & shove it anywhere it will fit.
I need to reorganize my entire basement. I have shelves lining two walls, but now things are not together anymore, mostly because I had an area for fall & xmas, but have outgrown the areas, then we all started other holidays for tablescapes & it's all mixed up good now, like a tossed salad!!! A huge one!LOL
Well, I'm certainly in good company. We're all lost, huh?
Too funny.
Yacht, I like your "tossed salad" description. Right on!
Each season, I think I'm organizing stuff better when I pack it up...and then last year, I did a very detailed Christmas list. So hopefully this year I'll be in decent shape, in spite of buying a lot since Jan. But what's not in proper Christmas storage areas, is in my poor closet. Nothing 'should' get lost this time. But oh how I wish I'd done same with Fall things. I truly am shocked at just how much I have now!!
Tho I still can't find those two darn pheasants! They are driving me bonkers and I'll probably see them in my dreams. Hey, maybe I'll see WHERE the heck they are then!
Its a very good thing I started decorating a few weeks early this year, maybe I'll find them by the end of the month!
hugs, Karen
LOL! It's always nice to know that we are NOT alone in this world! Been there, done that ...copper earrings for me, Janet...threw that little sack (I bought on vacation) right in the trash! UGH! Thanks, Purplemoon, we seem to all have reached this stage in life! "Enablers R Us!" ...LOL, PM!
Good idea, Lynn...I do take lots of pics...but then must keep them organized. Now when kids look at my photo albums, I say, "just skip over the flower ones, holiday decor & t'scapes! Family pics are in there somewhere!" LOL! Jeanne S.
Great idea to put it all in one place.
Right now I can't find the dishes I used for a Halloween tablescape last year :(
Fortunately, I still have a couple of weeks before I need to set that table.
I tell people that I don't have Alzheimers since I just forget parts of things, I have Partsheimers!! LOL
Karen, have you tried going back and reading the post where you showed us the pheasants? Might be something on it that would jog your memory about where you put them. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
I have a small drawer in my china cabinet where I sort of collect gift items that I find during the year that I think will be just perfect for someone's BD or Christmas. However, sometimes and item is too big for the drawer and has to be stashed elsewhere. Makes me so upset when I run across it later and the occassion has already passed! Guess I need to write myself little notes and stick them in the gift drawer as reminders from now on.
Don't you feel better now Karen, knowing you're not the only one? ;o)
Candy, I'm going to remember that term you created--I'm sure I'll be needing to use it! LOL
Karen and all,
Well, I can add to the chorus. My HUGE basement storage room is perpetually a "tossed salad," as Yachter so aptly put it, because I keep thinking of a new, final, perfect way to organize my stuff (LOL)! I have DH putting in new wire shelves between the wood ones so I can organize my off-season dishes (Jane, it's no wonder I haven't got my dining room table yet, I keep him busy with storage projects).
I am taking pictures of the shelves as I do them (and reorganize them, over and over) so I'll know how to put my stuff back (this is all theory, I'll let you know if it works). One thing I have been able to do which has been helpful is to put more things out on the shelves as opposed to putting them in bins. Then I don't have to pull so many bins down and dig through them. Plus, it's kind of a hoot seeing all those funkin Jack o'lanterns staring at me as I come in!
Good luck, everyone!
- Magpie
Well, add me to the enrollment!!! Yikes.....
I have accidentally thrown things away,
broken them,
or lost them completely!
I NOW have a long skinny tablet NAILED to the inside of the hall closet door, that "reminds" me where things are!
It doesn't work all the time, but it is quite a bit better than I was before.
I also keep an ongoing Christmas list on my computer. I add things that I find for certain persons, during the year.
It all helps!
Hugs to all of you, and Karen I hope you find the pheasants soon, you will have us all dreaming about where they might be!
I had to come back and read these latter posts . . . because it feels great to know that I'm in good company with my forgetfulness!
So I have to tell you of my latest "Partsheimers" incident (great new term for us,Candy!):
Yesterday afternoon, I picked DD up from school and made a quick trip to Walmart Supercenter. While there, I found a tablecloth I "needed" for my Halloween table. I was hoping to find some very inexpensive charger plates for a project, but theirs were too pricey for what I wanted. So,I come home and go to put my new (cheap/ $1.25/green plastic) tablecloth away in my tablescape cab . . . and there under a pile of fabric on the bottom shelf was a stack of 20+ gold and silver chargers that I'd forgotten I had! So I saved myself some money! Now, I just need to clean out the cab so I can better see what I DO have!
Oh golly, Karen. This sort of thing happens to me all the time.
Lynn, you actually forgot about TWENTY gold and silver chargers! You may get the prize for that one.
Come to think of it, I'm sure some of you gals on the forum will remember I "found" a large orange tablecloth with matching napkins that, to this day, I still can't remember ever buying. How does one forget about an ORANGE tablecloth, of all colors??
Well, I have to say that although my misplacing and rediscovering of table items continues to go on and on, this forum has helped me in a small way. Since I usually take pictures of some of my Fun Finds and tablescapes to post here, I've gotten in the habit of taking more pictures of my dishes and glasses. At first, I only had pics (and little explanations) of the china that one day would be handed down. But now, I take a picture of everything as soon as I bring it in the house. (If hubby is home, I leave it in the trunk until I can safely take a snap.)
I even have most of them on my mobile phone along with pics of the manufacture's mark on the back, so I can match things when I spot something that might coordinate.
Doing a kitchen remodel also helps, because you have to take everything out and, worst of all, you have to CLEAN everything when you go to put it all back. So, within a week or so, I actually HELD each item in my hand for a minute or two. Now, about remembering where I decided to store them . . .
"Partsheimers"...that is a hoot, and too true, Candy.
Lynn, you definitely get the prize! TWENTY CHARGERS you forgot? LOL.
OA, I thought Kathleen was the only one who hid stuff in her car trunk. Or maybe I should say 'stores' it there temporarily. ;o)
Gosh, you guys make me feel much better. I think.
Those pheasants didn't even show up in my dreams! Darn birds are making me nuts today too. I HATE losing stuff. Especially when I am sure they have to be in garage cabinet or pantry shelves. Guess they flew the coop!
hugs, Karen
Love reading everyone's story and how we can relate to
our "Partsheimers" (good one Candy).
I like tho how eveyone (well most of us) have been able to figure out ways to 'remember' too!
So many times, I have to rush in and stash something quickly, that I can't take a picture or jot it down and many times it becomes forgotten.
Lynn ALL those chargers...that's Major!
I've done that with Cards I buy ahead of time. Sometimes I end up buying double, because I stash them away, completely forget I bought them and find them months later...or not at all
Magpie...I can understand why your table is late in coming, but for some reason I think having the storage in place, is a good thing. Now you'll be able to 'See'
where all the 'stuff' for your tablescapes are!
Well, it's nice to know we're not alone in all our 'Madness'.
I went back and counted them and there's actually 11 gold and 10 silver for a total of 21 . . . that's pitiful, but true! I bought them several years ago for our big Christmas Day dinner, which had a silver & gold theme table. I'm just glad that I found them before I'd actually bought any more!
soxxx, welcome to the forum! I can tell you why you look a second or third time--because sometimes we look in there and everything just doesn't "register". Once we know this happens to us, then we start checking again "just in case." What I really hate is if I have looked, then DH looks and there it is! Makes me soooo mad--at myself! LOL
HA Luvs!
I can relate ..sort of.
Usually, DH looks for something can't find it...I look (in the same place) and 'Bingo'! I usually tell him he looked for it 'A Mans Way of Looking'..he never bends down or moves things around...if he doesn't see it right off..it's not there..no matter where he looks or what he's looking for...like something in the Refrigerator... or Cabinet for the salt!
Now if I misplace something...just like your DH...he finds it!! Go Figure..
Welcome Soxxx.. Nice to see you here, and I'm glad you joined in.
Hi and Welcome, Soxxxx. You're so right about looking two or three times in the same place. LOL. Tho in my case, it sometimes does 'magically' appear on me. Searching for my pheasant pair, I keep hoping that will happen.
Jane,LOL, I cracked up at to the "Man's Way of Looking".
You are so right in your description of that. Too funny!
My DH is always asking where something is, and often its right in front him.
You guys have made this such a fun thread!! Thanks for all the laughs, empathy, and sharing your stories. Love it.
hugs, Karen

Finall Sprin Has Sprung Here
A couple of false starts including the one in the middle of January. I'm glad I had the day off today because I know Brooklyn Botanical Gardens will be packed tomorrow. I had a nice chat with Anne O'Neill curator of Roses what a great person! I've included a link at the bottom for a few more shots taken over the last 2 weeks
Here is a link that might be useful: 2007 Spring
OOOOOOHHHHHH--what a gorgeous tree. What is it? Don't think we grow them in Kansas. Lucky you being near enough to the botanical gardens to enjoy such views.
Our redbud trees are usually quite lovely in Kansas in the spring--but the late freeze took all the buds and they look very dead now. No sprunging going on here. Hope they recover.
Hope sprin spruns here soon for good. I've had it with freezes.
What a spectacular tree! (And I love it how you waited for the lady with the matching scarf to stroll into the scene.) Thank you for posting the link to more of your spring photos as well - all of your shots are wonderful. (Gosh I love those Siberian squill!)
Joe, beautiful as always. What makes your photography so incredible is how you capture the life, the people in their daily lives combined with the amazing beauty of something so simple until you are behind the lens. This group really speaks to me.
Thank you. I just hope you keep meandering around the city and click away for our amazement. My all time favorites of your portfolio are the snow scenes.
You bring back all the wonderful scenes I experienced when I lived in NY for
15 years. It's always exciting to look at your photos and you make me smile while studying each shot. What more can I ask for?

Reading apartments for rent are home to a successful, industrial city. As of a 2010 Census report, Reading is the fifth most populous city in the state of Pennsylvania. The history of Reading dates back to 1743 when when Thomas Lawrence made the first attempt to establish the city's limits. The town's name originates from Lawrence's own county seat from his home in Reading, in Berkshire, England. Reading played an important part during the French and Indian War - the city was a military base where soldiers and craftsman produced weapons and ammunition for the military.
Reading apartments for rent offer residents the opportunity to be a part of a thriving arts and sports community. The Reading Symphony Orchestra is celebrating its 97th season of performance, outreach and educational programs. The town hosts a 10 day jazz festival every spring, known as the Berks Jazz Fest. The event includes entertainment day and night, as well as special shopping and dining opportunities within the greater Reading area. Other points of interest in the arts include the Berks Arts Council and the Berks County Heritage Center.
Sports fans enjoy seasonal games all year long. Go root on the Reading Royals hockey team or the Reading Railers basketball team indoors or enjoy a Reading Rage soccer game outdoors. The prestigious soccer club has helped many players develop skills to play professional soccer.
The Berks Area Regional Transportation Authority (BARTA) offers Reading residents a public bus service to help them get in and around town.
Reading apartments for rent managed by the Reading Shelter & Supportive Housing offer unique services to families and individuals in need. The Shelter & Supportive Housing programs provide residents with counseling, money management workshops, treatment services for mental health and drugs, a 24-hour child care services and aftercare services. The Shelter & Supportive Housing Opportunity manages and maintains apartments and townhomes in close proximity to the Opportunity House as a way to provide a safe, affordable housing option to residents.
The average cost of living in Reading apartments is estimated at 7.6 percent less than the state average and 6.1 percent less than the national average, according to AreaVibes. Residents typically pay $3.62 for a gallon of gas, $4.51 for a cup of coffee and $8.00 for pizza.
Those who live in Reading apartments have access to jobs within the states top industries. Reading is known for its agriculture, manufacturing and food processing industries.
Some of the top Reading employers include Gage Personnel Employment Services, Fidelity Technologies Corp., Custom Milling & Consulting, Atlantic Energy Concepts and Berks & Beyond Employment Services.

Daddy needs a break
Hi everyone-
I love teaching. Its seriously the best job in the world, and Lord willing is something that I would like to do for the rest of my life. With that said, it is hard work. And sometimes you just need to get away from it all and recharge your batteries.
So when we had a volleyball game cancelled, I found myself with a "free" weekend. As it ...
Bolognese sauce
... imposing, fortified hilltop-villages and every now and then plunges us back almost to the seashore. Loads of tunnels to zoom through... Hilli not so keen on these! We book into the Bologna Novotel ('you can trust the carpets in a Novotel') and plan on finding somewhere nice to eat in the old city later. Tomorrow morning is to be a day of Bolognese exploration before we head on past Verona ready for our Alpine crossing to Traunstein on ...
Holidays in sulmona
Back in sulmona. Car now getting repaired so with no car decided to go walkabout for a few days while weather hot. Thinking of going upto top of mountain tomorrow.... That will be an adventure...... Found great place to eat good pasta. Going in search of fresh fish in a min..... Cleaned rocket Ron up a bit...... Tony had hair cut. Managed not to get obligatory mullet that seems to fashion ...
Halfway There, But Where?

At one point today the frontage road consolidated with the Autostrada, which does not allow bicycles, so we ended up doing a 20 kilometer detour to go 500 meters. All in, we pedaled 7 hours today for 83 kilometers. Food was particularly good, so I included ...
Got bored with stripping paint off doors and mending roofs and painting furniture and the rain decided to go to beach for a holiday while forcast is good. Took bikes.

Formulas, Rutherford, and the Wave Mechanical Model But first! A quick review of Dalton's atomic theory! DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY • Elements are made of tiny particles called atoms. • All atoms of a given element are identical. Fe Fe Fe Fe DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY • The atoms of a given element are different from those of any other element. Fe Cu S Ne DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY • Atoms of one element can combine with atoms of other elements to form compounds. A given compound always has the same relative numbers and types of atoms. H2O DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY • Atoms are indivisible in chemical processes. That is, atoms are not created or destroyed in chemical reactions. A chemical reaction simply changes the way the atoms are grouped together. + + Formulas of Compounds Compound - a substance that is composed of the atoms of two or more elements and always contains exactly the same relative masses of these elements. Chemical Formula - a shorthand method used to show the number and type of atoms present in the smallest representative unit of a substance. Example - The formula for water is H2O. Each molecule of water contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Rules for Writing Formulas Each atom present is represented by its element symbol. The number of each type of atom is indicated by a subscript written to the right of the element symbol. When only one atom of a given type is present, the subscript 1 is not written. When you write the formulas, you can imagine what they would look like. For example: H2O, NH3, CO2, and CH4 Try self check 3.1 on page 55 The Structure of the Atom Over the last 200 years the model of how we think of atoms has changed significantly four times. The Structure of the Atom In 1897 a English physicist J.J. Thompson introduced the first model of the atom to include negatively charged particles called electrons. note: (Later, a different Thompson named William Thompson reasoned that the atom might be a uniform positively charged "pudding" like form with electrons scattered around like the way raisins were distributed in plum pudding.) Plum Pudding model of an atom. Rutherford's Experiment In 1909 Ernest Rutherford, at physicist originally from New Zealand, showed the atom had a dense region with a positive charge. The region was called the nucleus. Gold Foil Experiment Ernest Rutherford studied, among many other things, alpha (a) particles. Alpha particles are made of two protons and two neutrons. They can be emitted by radio active material and fly through the air. In Rutherford's experiment he bombarded a thin foil of gold with these α particles. a particles are invisible to the human eye but Rutherford surrounded gold foil with a screen that detects a particles. Figure 3.5: Rutherford's experiment. Gold Foil continued He found that most α particles passed through the gold foil but some were mysteriously deflected by something in the gold. Figure 3.6: Results of foil experiment if Plum Pudding model had been correct. Figure 3.6: Actual results. Rutherford's Conclusions Rutherford concluded there must be a positive nucleus in the center of the gold atoms that deflected the α particles. Rutherford's experiment showed that atoms had a nucleus. Later Rutherford also theorized that a nucleus is made of two particles: Proton - a positive particle with an equal but opposite charge of an electron. Also significantly more massive than an electron. Neutron - a particle with no charge but similar in mass to a proton The Next Proposed Structure In 1913 Niels Bohr, a Danish physicist introduced a model of the atom where the nucleus has both protons and neutrons inside. Electrons in the Bohr model are found in orbits outside the nucleus. The Wave Mechanical Model Today the probable locations of electrons around an atom are represented by clouds or orbital maps. On the left is the probability map showing where hydrogen's e- is most likely to be. The darker it is, the higher the probability. The orbital is defined as the area where the electron will be 90% of the time. Often it is shown simply as a sphere. Difference from Bohr Note: An orbit in the Bohr model is a fixed circular path. An orbital is a cloud like map representing the likely hood of the position of an electron. Wave Mechanical Model Today scientists believe light is created when electrons drop from one orbital level to a lower orbital level. From an energy point of view, an electron is said to be in different energy levels when it is in different orbitals. The electrons in an atom normally occupy the lowest energy levels available. An electron can be boosted by various means to a higher energy level. As electrons return to lower levels, photons (light waves) are emitted. Atoms that have electrons in higher than normal orbital levels are said to be in an Excited State. Atoms that have electrons in the lowest orbital levels are said to be in at Ground State. The Energy Levels of Hydrogen If energy is added to a group of Hydrogen atom some atoms will absorb the energy. Electrons will raise to higher orbitals in those atoms that absorbed energy. Those Hydrogen atoms are said to be in an excited state. When their electrons fall back down to normal orbital levels energy is released in the form of light waves called photons. What do you mean light is a wave?? Figure 11.3: The wavelength of a wave. Figure 11.5: Electromagnetic radiation. Figure 11.6: Photons of red and blue light. Figure 11.14: Continuous and discrete energy levels. Figure 11.15: The difference between continuous and quantized energy levels. The color of light emitted depends on the energy change of the atom A larger energy change may correspond to a blue photon. A smaller energy change may produce a red photon. Another Difference from Bohr The Bohr Model of the Atom could not explain the photons emitted by Hydrogen Four different colors of photons are emitted from excited Hydrogen atoms implying Hydrogen has four different quantized orbital energy levels for it's electrons. The Bohr Model of Hydrogen contained only three possible electron orbits. The Bohr model and its orbits has been replace with the Wave Mechanical Model and its orbitals. Quantized orbital energy levels Violet Violet Blue Green Red Photons emitted by excited Hydrogen atoms. Introduction to the Modern Atomic Structure SUBATOMIC PARTICLES symbol charge location mass compared to the mass of one electron neutrons protons electrons n0 p+ e- 0 +1 -1 nucleus nucleus orbital cloud 1836 1836 1 A X Z Atomic Number (Z) - the number of protons identifies the element (all atoms of the same element have the same number of protons) found on the periodic table (look in the back cover of your book) equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom A X Z What accounts for most of the mass of an atom? protons and neutrons Mass Number (A) - the sum of the p+ and n0 (protons and neutrons) Are all atoms of the same element identical? No, isotopes exist. Isotopes Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons. They have identical atomic numbers but different mass numbers.

Hi! Just wondering if any other mums on here have started a family day care and may be able to answer some questions for me? I have a 6month old son and heaps of nieces and nephews plus tonnes of friends with baby's so I'd really only be looking after family and friends. My questions are:

1. can I claim the govt rebate for my own son if he is in my care?

2. How many children under 5 can I care for alone?

3. What qualifications do I need to have to begin

4. What is your average weekly income by doing this?

I'm hoping this might be an option so I don't have to return to work and can be home with my son plus save money on child care

So I'm nearly 4 months pp, and the last few weeks, maybe months, I've noticed I've become a lot more hot tempered with the littlest thing sometimes annoying me extremely. The other day I actually swore and got angry at my seat belt for locking on me for no reason. Other times I'll be so upset I just want to cry and have no idea why.

Could this be postnatal or still my hormones trying to adjust?

My dd wakes up from her morning nap at 11. That doesn't leave us enough time to go do anything in the morning. How does everyone else manage?

Picked up my 18 mo girl today and the day car lady went to answer the door in the morning while bubs was sitting in the lounge. She went to give her breakfast and noticed her left foot had little scratches obviously from her cat. She said she didnt know it happened cause she didnt cry or anything. She was very sorry and apologetic.

She washed with soapy water. Since home ive rubbed coconut oil on a few times. Her temps a little raised from her normal 36.2 to 36.9. Should i be worried about infection?

Im disappointed cause ur not meant to leave them alone with animals i know but i really like her she likes it and i can tell the lady genuinely cares. I think ill say not to leave her alone ever with the cat in. U can see the lounge from the front door

I've always had DS in Huggies nappies and recently just moved him to Crawler ones as he had started leaking through the Infant nappies and I found that's when it's time to put him up a size.

However since changing, I've found these nappies feel quite stiff and a little like cardboard. Is this how all nappies go for the bigger sizes or just Huggies?

If it's just Huggies, is there a better brand to use? Thanks :)

I just wanted some real opinions on this, from real mums, so I don't think it's ok to leave your kids in the car on most occasions, I hear of terrible stories and it's definantly not worth it, but there's times where I feel like it's ok so for instance when I get petrol, I have two kids so I'm not going to turn a 1min payment into 10min muck around, also at most petrol stations you can see the car the entire time, I'll also run in to grab a coffee or into a shop if I can park right in front and can see the car the entire time and obviously if it's not a super hot day, I always lock the doors and leave the window cracked, so I guess I'm wondering if most ppl do this or what other ppl do? I know there's some "perfect " mums who will probably judge me but oh well

also what is the legality behind it in aus? Thanks :)

Two air ambulances called to road smash near Carlisle
Last updated at 11:03, Friday, 01 February 2013
A man was fighting for his life today after being airlifted to hospital following a crash between a truck carrying a skip and a car.
The man, a 30-year-old from Lockerbie, was a passenger in a black Volkswagen Passat which was involved in a collision with a Brampton Skips DAF LF truck at Harker Road Ends, to the north of Carlisle.
He was taken to the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle, where he remains in a critical condition with multiple injuries, including those to his head and chest.
The car was being driven by a 69-year-old man from Moffat, who was airlifted to the James Cook Hospital in Middlesbrough with pelvic injuries.
His condition was described as being serious but stable.
The driver of the skip wagon, a 45-year-old man from Brampton, was taken to Carlisle's Cumberland Infirmary with minor injuries, but was not kept in for further treatment.
Both vehicles left the road after the crash near Aero Nurseries at about 2pm yesterday (Thursday).
The road was closed for nearly five hours while the scene was cleared and police launched their investigation into the collision's cause.
Officers are keen to speak to a driver who they believe could have information which may help them.
A Cumbria police spokeswoman said: "Officers are making an appeal to trace a motorist who was seen driving a dark coloured car along the Gretna to Kingmoor road and made a left turn onto Parkhouse Road near to Harker Road Ends at about 2pm. It is believed that this driver may have witnessed the collision – or part of the collision – and may have information that could be vital to the police inquiry."
Firefighters and a number of police attended and helped cut the casualties free from the car, which was in a ditch.
The air ambulances dispatched were the Great North Air Ambulance's Langwathby-based Pride of Cumbria and another of the charity's helicopters from Darlington in County Durham.
Anyone with information about the crash should call police on 101.

There is little question that the next manager of the Red Sox will face a challenging yet potentially highly rewarding task. He will inherit a team that looked like it would storm into -- and perhaps even through -- the playoffs for much of the year, only to endure an historic collapse in month-long slow motion. The end of the season was greeted with a narrative of a clubhouse run amok over a manager who suffered hatchets after stepping away from the position.
Yet to Dale Sveum, the idea of cleaning up a mess is not completely foreign. The Brewers hitting coach (and former Red Sox third base coach, who has also been a third base coach and bench coach in Milwaukee) inherited one of the most challenging managerial jobs in recent memory.
In 2008, the Brewers were on track to march comfortably into the postseason at the start of September. But the team sputtered to a 3-12 start at the start of the final month to put its first playoff berth in 26 years in jeopardy. That, in turn, led to the decision by the Brewers to fire increasingly anxious manager Ned Yost and turn, with two weeks left in the season, to Sveum.
Sveum was charged with calming the jangled nerves of the clubhouse, and to restore some of the confidence in the manager's office that Yost had lost. It was a situation with little precedent, but one into which Sveum ultimately felt comfortable stepping.
"You get woke up at 10 a.m. on an off day with 12 games left and the general manager asks you if you want to take the team over the rest of the way with 12 games left after getting in at 4 o'clock in the morning," recalled Sveum. "It's kind of one of the worst or better wakeup calls you're ever going to get.
"It was an unfortunate incident, how it all went down. Ned Yost was a very good friend of mine and a very unfortunate situation that happened."
Sveum was presented with foreign situations. His first big league managerial job, albeit one that came with an interim tag. The introductory press conference. A team in mid-collapse, 12 games left, tied for the wild card lead, every game suddenly, Sveum noted, "a playoff game."
The 47-year-old's take on the opportunity?
"It was fun. It was 12 playoff games to end the season," he recalled. "The first pitch was thrown at Wrigley [in his first game against the Cubs], I was right at home. That was like where I was supposed to be. You never know until you get thrown into that fire and you have to do it."
Sveum's Brewers started slowly. They lost the first game under him, won the second, then carried a 6-2 lead into the ninth inning only to cough it up in a 7-6, 12-inning loss.
"That was kind of a welcome to managing," Sveum mused.
The Brewers lost the next two games, but then corrected course, winning six of their final seven to make the playoffs by a game. (Milwaukee was bounced from the playoffs in the NLDS by the Phillies, who went on to win the World Series.) He suggested that he "brought a little ease to the clubhouse" and also instilled a more aggressive offensive philosophy that featured more hit-and-run baseball and run manufacturing.
As Sveum became the second candidate (following Pete Mackanin on Monday) to interview for the Red Sox managerial vacancy, the subject of his stint as the interim manager of the Brewers was a significant one.
"His experience in '08 as interim manager is relevant in the sense that it's the only major-league managerial experience he's had. And so, we talked a lot about that," said Sox GM Ben Cherington. "I think the circumstances are entirely different. The clubhouses were different, the players were different. The reasons for their struggles up until that time were different than ours in September.
"I'm not sure that that alone helps him in any way, but his experience helps him because he was asked to do something that was unexpected and sort of thrown into the fire and dealt with it very well from what I can see."
Other notable elements from the media session following Sveum's day of interviews:
-- The two jobs are different.
Yes, Sveum was a lightning rod in his two years as the Red Sox third base coach in 2004-05. He recalled making some mistakes -- most notably, in a two-week span that saw Rays center fielder Rocco Baldelli gun down three runners at the plate -- while the third base coach with the Sox.
However, the Sox suggest that his time in the third base coach's box has little bearing on how Sveum stacks up as a managerial candidate.
"We wouldn't be hiring him as third base coach," noted Cherington. "If we're signing a player, trading for a player that we think is gonna do a really good job in right field, then we'd make the mistake of making him a shortstop, but I don't see how that's relevant.
"He's done a lot of different things in baseball, he's been a third-base coach in the big leagues, he's been a bench coach, he's been a hitting coach, he's been a manager, he's managed in the minor leagues, he obviously played for a long time. We're looking at sort of the entire body of work, and in some ways, you know, I think his experience at third base coach is a benefit to him. He's been through some adversity in Boston, and a lot of our candidates won't have been through that. …
"He's familiar with the city, familiar with some people in the organization," added Cherington. "He's had a little bit of managerial experience at the big leagues albeit brief, he's managed in the Minor Leagues. He's got a lot of the qualities that we're looking for."
For his part, Sveum said that while he made mistakes, he did not have regrets about his tenure as a Red Sox third base coach.
"Don't get me wrong, I made a couple decisions I'd like to have back," Sveum acknowledged. "I'll just say I'm glad I was scrutinized for being aggressive instead of passive. I'm not a very passive person; I'm a very aggressive person, and I always have been. The thing about the passion of the fans here and the media and, it was kind of, I don't want to say it was comical, but if you do the same thing in Milwaukee, there's nothing really said about it."
-- While Red Sox fans may not have the most glowing memories of Sveum, he raved about his time in Boston. He suggested that in recent years, he has checked the interleague schedule to see if he would be back in Fenway Park as a visitor, something that he has had occasion to do twice (in 2008 and again in 2011). That enthusiasm was based on his fond memories of the two years he spent coaching the Sox, which included a ring with the 2004 club.
"It was the greatest experience I could ever have. We won the world series in '04 and unfortunately got ousted in the first round of the '05 playoffs," said Sveum. "It's the ultimate place to ever be. There's nothing like Fenway Park. There's nothing like Boston the city, the passion that people have for the Boston Red Sox. You just can't replace that feeling every night coming to a ballpark that … you play 162 games, when you get to play 81 of them in Fenway Park, it's not too tough to come to the ballpark every day when you play in front of those kinds of fans."
-- Sveum suggested that he would come with a "don't tread on me" label.
He talked at some length about the importance of gaining the respect of the players and creating clear expectations for interpersonal conduct, starting in spring training. Sveum said that he was "firm" in terms of his convictions about playing the game the right way and making sure that players who ran afoul of those expectations were aware of it.
"I don't let things fester. If I see something that's disrespecting me or disrespecting the game or the teammates that I'm managing, I'll have a problem with that and I'll take care of it at that given time," said Sveum. "What format that may be? I don't know, depending on the problem at hand at that time. But most of the time, you're just getting your players to respect you.
"Most times, when things get out of whack, you have to discipline people for the most part just because something they did either disrespected myself, the organization, or the teammates that are playing every day — their own teammates. If you let anything fester, then you start losing respect, from the start of spring training, from the organization of spring training to anything that starts the season off. You have to get players to respect you to play for you. If they don't respect you, you get a lot of issues that creep up. If they respect you, they're usually going to play for you and do things the right way professionally."
Sveum said that the biggest challenge facing an incoming manager is to command that respect from the players, something that elevates the importance of the very beginning of the season. "Spring training is everything," Sveum suggested, noting that the organization of camp is the time to earn the respect and trust of the players.
Sveum suggested that he was comfortable with the idea of working with a diverse array of personality types. In addition to working closely with a number of heralded players in Boston, his last six years with the Brewers have been spent working with a wide array of player types, from unheralded role players to superstars such as Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder.
"I think I've been very well respected by every player I've been around for the fact that I'm not afraid to talk to major league players, superstars, whatever it might be," said Sveum. "I don't have a difficult time speaking my mind to anyone on any level. I think we all put our pants on the same way."
-- As for in-game managerial style, Sveum suggested that he was adaptable to the personnel that he had. With a lineup such as that featured by the Red Sox, he noted, it is critical to avoid creating unnecessary outs. However, he noted that there are games when a team is flat and needs to be sparked by more aggressive plays involving setting runners in motion.
-- Though Sveum is friends with Terry Francona dating to their days playing together with the Brewers in 1989 and 1990, the two had not yet talked about Sveum's interview with the Sox. Sveum, who was hired to be a part of Francona's first two coaching staffs, said that he did plan to get in touch with his friend when things settle down this offseason.
