  1. I agree, but no one was hurt (as far as we know). No ambulance ever came.

    Again, since it wasn't life threatening, why couldn't they move the cars, let the police and fire truck move on to the next serious accident (wherever that might be)

    Have you ever moved a car on ice? The point is, tonight they were stretched too far. The last thing they need is pointless complaints.

  2. His mother and he recently moved to Dallas and do not have a large support system in the local area.If you can drop by a dish and a kind word I know that she would be very grateful. This mother will have a very hard time in the future as she dedicated herself to caring for him. God Rest his soul.

    What's the earliest a dish could be dropped off?

  3. Get rid of the objective. They know you are looking for a job, so that is unnecessary information. You will apply for jobs in your field, so they don't need to know that. And DEFINITELY get rid of the health info. They will toss your resume without a second thought. They see that and think "sick days" or "slow on the job" or "unable to do the job".

     

    Get to the interview, and if the job is not something you can physically do, then just be upfront and tell them. Otherwise, it is none of their business and will limit your job prospects.

     

    Trust me on this one. Do not ever share anything in a resume that will make them think you are not the most utmost qualified person. You will never get the interview. Do not mention children, illnesses, pets, spouses, religion, anything like that. You open the door and they can ask anything about it. You don't open the door and it is off limits in the interview.

     

    And NEVER, EVER tell them you have kids. EVER.

  4. Why did you have a pap so far along in your pregnancy and why would they EVER want to take a piece of your cervix WHILE you are pregnant? That could cause a premature birth. PLEASE, PLEASE ask those questions before you agree to anything. A pap this far into pregnancy will show up abnormal with everything your body is going through.

  5. Nestled Newborn in marietta, it was great!!! Near Sprayberry High school, at 16 weeks they will do a gender determ. but the best time for a 4d us is about 35 weeks. Google Nestled newborn.

    They are great!

  6. Cade is only 5 but he does get special things taken away. Last Wednesday he was a pill and kept talking back and having an attitude and got the Wii taken away, for 7 days. It has not been shorten for his extra good behavior.

  7. I'm so sorry AJ. Life is a mystery.

     

    I took comfort in this a couple of times:

     

     

    Sisterhood of Sadness

    "I was once a member of the Pregnancy Club, my membership card consisting of two pink lines on a stick. I was eager to pay my dues, just like all the other members. Morning sickness, stretch marks, cravings -- I welcomed them all.

     

    But they never came. And before I knew it, my membership was revoked. No real reason -- at least none I could discern -- other than bad timing, perhaps. Or, at least, that's what everyone's been telling me. That and "God's plan."

     

    Miscarriage is a terrible word. As if one has dropped something, or carried something incorrectly. Similar to "mistake" or "misunderstanding." How I longed for it to be either of those things when I learned my baby was gone. Surely, it was a mistake, I prayed. If they would just look again, they would learn it was all a simple misunderstanding.

     

    But the ultrasound screen showed otherwise.

     

    1 out of every 5 pregnancies ends in miscarriage, say the books. That statistic terrified me when I was pregnant. So many lost babies, I thought. How can I keep mine from being one of them? But now that mine is one of them, that 1 out of 5 seems awfully small.

     

    Or, at least, it did. Until soft-speaking female voices started whispering to me in my grief, "It happened to me, too." Their eyes told me the stories of the pain that we shared, the pain that only a woman who has carried a child - and lost it - could know. For some, it was fresh pain. For others, it was dulled by healthy babies since born.

     

    A sisterhood of sadness.

     

    It's a silent group, this new club of which I have recently become a reluctant member. Our membership cards are the scars we will always carry on our hearts. Our dues are paid in blood and tears. It is a painful initiation, and one never ceases membership. Because one never forgets.

     

    I am joining, not because I want to, but because I wasn't given the choice. But at least I know I'm not alone. At least I know there are hundreds of thousands of women with me, however silent and invisible, quietly holding my hand."

     

     

     

  8. I forgot to tell everyone to back off. DO NOT let anyone take over for you or you will have a mason jar as a vase next to your cake. No, I'm NOT kidding. I had a beautiful Mikasa vase my MIL gave to me for the flowers and some hillbilly used a mason jar.
