  1. Yes. I stayed up super late watching. Isn't it amazing? These things almost never have a positive outcome as we have seen the past yr. or so here in America. I wonder if they even have a clue at how many people all over the world have been praying for them? Here is how I feel about them coming out safe and sound!
  2. Well thank you and best of luck to her as well. I can totally understand what she is going through with the job hunt. For me it is stressful yet depressing at the same time. I have always worked pretty much since I was 15 starting out at Six Flags. I know one good job right now especially with the Christmas season coming up, is working for one of the cellular carriers in the mall. My Brothers ex GF did that one Christmas season as a means for extra income and one week she brought home $1,500. Of course that was before the down turn of the economy, so I am not sure if anyone would make that m
  3. Oh I do too. It is so peaceful and beautiful there. Wedding or not, I recommend for anyone to take a trip down there one weekend to check it out. To me it is like one of Atlantas best kept secrets. The family that bought it have done a great job at bringing the place back to life. It was one of the owners family members who took us on the tour of the grounds, and he told us all about the history of the place. Famous people have even performed there back in the day. It is very easy to get to off of Capps Ferry Rd./South Fulton Pkwy if you turn down Capps Ferry off of 166 in the Douglasville/Fai
  4. Just ask any Douglasville police officer. This is how I find out about all of the crime that the locals do not hear about. There is a web site(I forget the name of it right off hand) that shows all of the crime in the city limits of Douglasville. I saw it posted on a Douglasville crime blog awhile back. My brother is a Sgt. with the DVPD. Most of the arrests at the actual mall or surrounding businesses are also committed by those who do not even live in Douglas co.
  5. Tell her to check out craigslist. I saw a couple of customer service positions on there. If I am not mistaken there was a listing on there for a company in Woodstock that I saw. I am in the same boat. I have even been applying for seasonal work at this point, but still no calls for interviews yet. I have found that the older we get, the harder it is on us. I go into many places and they have young workers who have zero knowledge about anything, or you get rude workers. There are way too many people out here looking for work right now, who would smile at all times and show courtesy to everyone
  6. PCHS is the 1st HS in the county, kinda like Douglas co. has DCHS. It's the original where the old folks(like myself) would have gone.
  7. My Daughter bought her dress last month. We got one heck of a deal on it too. It was a floor sample, so they took a lot off of the price. Do you want the wedding to be outdoors? I really,really love Dunaway Gardens. I had never heard of the place before, until the day we went down to go take a look. They have several different areas throughout the gardens to do the ceremony. You get the venue for 10 hrs., and they have people there who will take all guests from the parking area down to the ceremony site on golf carts. In the event of rain, they have a good backup area too that is covered. I wa
  8. I hated working at the mall. You see I worked for JC Penneys, and I was working in Carrollton. Well they decided to open a store up in Arbor Place, and closed down the store I had been working at. I worked at Arbor Place for about 2 yrs., and then ended up leaving. There were times that I could not even find a parking spot during busy times. I never had that issue in Carrollton. Nothing like parking on the other side of the mall and having to walk to your car alone at 1am, with no security in sight. If you get a mall there it will only be time before the riff raff start taking over just as t
  9. Sorry for not getting back before now. She came home yesterday evening. She left with a friend, and did not ask nor inform her parents that she was going anywhere. She didn't answer her cell phone all day either, so they were in panic mode. Her Mom grounded her when she got home.
  10. My Daughter is getting married next May down at Dunaway Gardens, just outside of Newnan. Beautfiul place, and their prices were 1/2 of what Le Jarin Blanc in Douglasville wanted. I am very pleased with my Daughters decision to get married here. www.dunawaygardens.com/
  11. 1st things 1st, DO NOT get your high school kid a porsche. My kids took drivers ed. training which was offered free to Douglas co. residents. They get into a simulator and it simulates different driving conditions. To me the graduated drivers license law did not do what the state hoped it would do. Too many teens are still dying, and most of the time it all boils down to excessive speed and inexperience. My Daughters both drive and (knock on wood) nothing on their driving record.
  12. I am wanting to move out of Douglas co. due to the chaos the mall has brought here. Believe me you will hate it. I know most of you have seen how horrible the traffic is here on Hwy 5, Douglas Blvd and Chapel Hill Rd. I know you have all seen how bad Barrett Pkwy is as well. Hiram traffic is already pretty congested. You do not even want to imagine what it will look like if you build a mall there. Crime has gone up a lot in the city of Douglasville since the mall opened here in 1999. I say take a look at Arbor Place on a Friday or Saturday night. Is that what you want your area to be like? A 5
  13. I came across the youtube vids. when I went on there 2 weeks ago to look up to see if they had uploaded the video of Amber punching Gary, and trying to push him down the stairs. His name is Gary Shirley and hers is Amber Portwood.
  14. Thank you. Nobody is answering the phone at my cousins house, and her brother has not been on Fb since lunch. That's very odd, because that boy stays on facebook. I assume they are out looking for her. If they have no luck finding her, then I will see if I can get a picture of her to post on here. She is a student at Douglas co. high school in her Sr. yr.
  15. Actually Gary has been working for quite awhile now. I do not know why the show continues to portray him as unemployed, but he works as a CNA. He was only out of work for a little bit, and it took him a few months to find another job. Amber on the other hand is lazy with a capital L. I watched a homemade video on youtube that Garys best friend made when Gary was on the phone with her. She is whining, cussing and yelling at him on it. No mtv cameras were around for that one. I think that I am way too addicted to the show. I guess in part because I was a Teen Mom. Gary also submitted a video t
  16. Now I have a relative who's missing. She is 17, but not in Paulding co. She lives in Douglasville. If her Dad does not locate her soon, I will start a new thread about her. She does live close enough to the PC line, so I will post it here to be on the safe side. I have no clue what's going on, but her brother posted on FB 3 hrs. ago that she is missing. No other details yet.
  17. Yes she does. I am leaning more towards a meth addiction, only because I had a family member addicted to it. A lot of similarities there. Her Mom has that meth look. Her face is all sunken in and she has places on her face. They say those addicted to meth pick at their faces, because they feel like their skin is crawling. They pick at it until it bleeds leaving those little places on their face. Everytime Catelynn tries to talk to her Mom, she goes off on her. She is always putting Catelynn down. Catelynn did the right thing by giving Carly a home that she knew she could not give her. Catelynn
  18. I cried when Farrah busted out into tears. She was trying so hard to reach out to her Mom, and her Mom just shoots her down everytime she tries. If my Daughters ever went through something so tragic no matter what my feelings were about the boy, I would be here for them 100%.
  19. Another kid? WTH is going on these days? Thankfully they have all be run aways, and no foul play. I wish these kids would understand that you won't always get your way, and running away is not the answer. All that does is get you in trouble with the law. My son just talked one of his friends out of running away. His friend wanted to run away, because he has a curfew. *sighs*
  20. Yes. Farrah got the DNA results on this past weeks show.
  21. I read somewhere that she is 36 and had Catelynn when she was 19.
  22. I think that Catelynns Mom is either a drunk or on meth. I can't quite decide which one just yet. I now see a side to Farrah that makes me understand her more. I was ticked at her for taking off so much after Sophia was born, but I believe this was Farrahs way to take Derricks passing off of her mind. Farrahs parents never allowed Farrah to grieve, and in my opinion this is why she was so rebellious towards her mother. Now that she is being allowed to finally grieve she has become a better Mom. I read that Maci and Ryan are back together. *GAG* He only started becoming a Dad to Bentley, beca
  23. That's sad, isn't it? They could be anywhere and anything could have happened to them. Nobody knows, since they haven't called their parents to say that they are safe. I think personally being that they are minors and technically considered missing(run away or not), the media should atleast post their pictures and ask if anyone has seen them to call the Paulding Co. sheriffs dept. juvenile division. I can not even imagine what all of these parents have been going through with the numerous run a way cases just this past month on this forum. My heart goes out to them.
  24. Sprint does have pretty shoddy service areas.My phone roamed a good portion of our trip to Gatlinburg 2 months ago.You'd think along a major interstate you'd have continuous service, but I guess not. I want out of my contract bad, so I can get a cheaper pre pay plan. $175 a month is insane when I come to think of it. We share 1,100 mins. per month, get unlimited texts, web, GPS, and I added the ins. plan to it 2 months ago. I think I used 18 mins. on my phone last month, because I mainly text.
  25. I am kicking myself in the butt for getting a contract phone through sprint. For 2 phones our bill is $175 a month. People are telling me for less than $100 a month me and my husband could both get metro pcs giving us unlimited texts, minutes and web access. Being that I am with sprint which has no sim card, I was told I could take my existing phones to metro pcs to avoid buying 2 more cell phones. I am really thinking about paying the fees to cancel our contract and go with metro pcs. I just wonder if I am out of town, will the phone still pick up? I do not travel often due to money, but I do
