Please tell me that is not the shadow of a beard.

I disagree. I do think that his statement did drive the point home though. I guarantee that if Sheryl Crow, Sean Penn, or any other of those dimbots had said it there would not have been the slightest peep about it.

Well dang. How much Friskies will it take to settle? Oh, is that canned or dry?

It's called being "PC" you wouldn't want to offend/hurt someone's itty bitty feewings. Or as my DD said the pu**yfacation of America.

Check Paulding Place.

I must be truly oblivious when I'm in Wally world. I have never seen any thing close to these pictures.

Yep, I've had those days. It will be one of those things to laugh about later.

You are the same age as I am. I too have 2 grown children. Oldest will soon be 31, DD will be 26. I had the youngest at 36. Not that much has changed. I know that I have been more leinant (sp) with this last child mainly because of the other 2. But, I wouldn't have let the other 2 do this why would I let this one? Remember the boundries, and rules your other 2 pushed. Remember why you didn't let them go past them. You know as well as I do she is going to use the same excuses that the other 2 did. Did you give into them? Come on, you know which battles are worth fighting.

The OP stated she has been telling her no. Now that said child is in middle school, and three of her friends have piercings all of a sudden she is giving into her DD. The OP had already decided to let her DD have the thing, I just feel that she wants validation. Why the change? Just because she is in middle school? There's going to be a lot of things come up between now and when she turns18. I hope she (the daughter) has a better reason the "aal my friends are doing it." But, then that may be all mom needs to say yes.I don't really care if the kid gets a hole in her nose. The OP was asking if

Yep "my friends have them" crap. Pushing it because she was already told no. OP you had your mind made up to let her do it before you asked for opinions. If you aren't sure then it's your gut telling you it's not a good idea. I'm not sure why it makes a difference now that she is in middle school. Did something happen to make it so you are no longer the parent?

Ummm NO. Oh and with the "all my friends" crap. 2 things 1, do you know these "friends" of hers? 2 do they have the nose pericings? Next as I tell DS "your my child, I said no." he doesn't need to know WHY I said no.

Why did I read that in the "disclaimer voice?" very freaky.

Yep this. I had this and my appendix was inflamed I ended up in surgery for both issues. I didn't have any fever, or any other "sick" symptoms. I would go to the doctor.

At least next week is early release. Might make it easier for him. I have never had to deal with strep (knocking on wood, crossing fingers, thanking God) but I have had to deal with ear infections, and bronchitis. I know he will get well soon.

She will have you wrapped before she even gets here. Oh, that's my granddaughter. But, really I know you are thrilled!!!! And, she will have you wrapped.

Nope today isn't one of those days. I'm fine with the two hearts and diamond!!

I want that pool

Not it, but I did add to the views

And, that would be fine and understandable. But, don't blame the customer. Be upfront and truthful about the fact that, yes, bills have been increased due to less revenue. I want them to stop lie about what's really happening. Folks don't have the time to be sent on a wild goose chase, just because it's easier to lie.

We live in PC, we don't have all the extra's that Cobb has on their bills. When we lived in PS, I don't think our bills were ever more then 30 dollars. But, we moved out here about 7 years ago.

Good luck!!! It is never their fault. Yep, like everyone else I have had bills that are doubled, and then all of a sudden they go back down. Every time I call it's "well you must have a leak." Of course we don't. If we can ever get the well to work, I'll be telling them to stick the bill where the sun don't shine.

DH ran a survivor school. Yep, we can survive w/o any problems.
