Wow! I was sharing with my 7 year old that I knew some people with kids who didn't brush their teeth when they were his age and now their teeth are ruined. He was mortified and brushed extra well last night and this morning!
Yay! I'm glad my boy's ignorance could scare your boy into submission! LOL
I'm going to cancel his 21st birthday trip, I think. And, make him pay for at least half. I mean, the boy is almost 21, not in school, lives with me and doesn't even pay rent. Either that, or he can have them all pulled and get dentures.
Good idea! I don't have kids but I know my parents would've made me pay rent if I hadn't moved out on my own!0 -

Blasphemy! However, to be helpful I will have all your dill pickles. The sweet pickles can go die in a fire though.
Amen to that! I hate when I grab a pickle, pop it in my mouth, and then find out it is a sweet pickle. Gag.
Another hater on sweet pickles here just can't do it
Count me in too. Yuck!!!
Agreed, sweet relish and sweet pickles are NASTY. My sister loves relish, though. To the one who mentioned it (I don't recall who it was), I make egg salad and tuna salad perfectly well without that terrible ingredient. 
It tastes much better that way. 
i love dill pickles and dill relish on hot dogs!
when i make a tuna sandwich i do mix the tuna with sweet relish. but only with sweet relish, mayo makes me gag. 0 -
@Susieq_1994 I'll keep my fingers crossed you're able to get a chair exactly like that, it's really stylish and that color of blue is so pretty! I agree if you need to use it at times then at least you will look good! And thanks for sharing the post about taking care of yourself first, I think a lot of times people forget about doing that

Yeah, I remember my brother living with my parents until he was 25 or 26. They didn't charge him rent (I don't think), but they did put him to work on the farm when he wasn't at work.0 -

I would use it but that's just me. Just cut some calories each day to help with a deficit maybe?
Mmm We had marble slab in Texas...I make do with Cold Stone up here but it's not the same
I've only gotten Cold Stone a few times. On my birthday a few weeks ago, I got the massive size (Gotta Love it) of the Cookie Doughn't You Want Some flavor and it was gooooood!!!! My husband's birthday is on Friday and I want to go get ice cream there after dinner just so I can get it again.
Speaking of ice cream, I am most likely going to DQ for my blizzard (yes, I'm STILL talking about this) today. Not a lot of sleep usually equals bad choices AND it expires in 2 days AND it's going to be very humid today and I think I should eat ice cream to stay coolspacequiztime wrote: »
I hear ya with sweets control. I went back to finish logging my weekend and I probably ate more sweets than anything on Sunday and probably would have on Saturday had it not been for the pizza.kelly_c_77 wrote: »spacequiztime wrote: »I

I have been so close to going since I got it 2 weeks ago. But I have waaaay overindulged many days already..
Also, my husband is working a ton lately and never home which means it's me and my son...so 2 medium blizzards(it's buy one get one free) between the two of us means I'm eating 1.75 of the 2. Which is great except that I have to get myself under control with my sweets...and eating almost 2 whole blizzards doesn't exactly fall into that category.
Mmmm...pizza....
Worst case, you get the two, put a lid on one, split the other with your son and the other goes in the freezer for later!!!
Sounds great in theory...but I could never do that.
ETA: My sweets struggle is real...which is why I'm having such a hard time with the idea of going to get the stupidly delicious Blizzards in the first place! 0 -

People were talking about Ramen noodles the other day and now I'm craving them. I haven't eaten them since I was pregnant with my son 8 years ago. And no, I'm not pregnant! The factory is closed!0 -

Popping in to say- sweet pickles are disgusting! Why anyone would choose to desecrate tuna or anything else with sweet pickles or sweet pickle relish baffles me!
Also, I have small feet, can't stand the way my toes look so rarely wear open toed shoes. I also have a dear husband who doesn't want to buy anything that is made in China, so shoe shopping is not one of my favorite things to do.
I am so jealous of all the vacation talk. I haven't had a real vacation since I stopped teaching 4 years ago. I am in the process of buying a new car, which means I won't be taking any real vacations anytime soon either. (I am a contractor, so I don't get any paid time off.)
Sending out virtual hugs to all who need them!

I told Mr. Mo I was disappointed because I was hoping to have my ring before we left so I could show it to my brother (who we were lucky enough to get to see while down there). He said he was bummed too, but at least I'd have something to look forward to when we got home.
Unbeknownst to me, that little turd picked it up the Wednesday before we left, and snuck it in his carryon. On our anniversary, we decided to go to breakfast, then do some shopping on another key, then go seashell, and shark tooth hunting. While on the beach hunting, he got a little ahead of me lower on the beach looking for shells while I'm still working my way down the hill. He turns around and asks me, "So, what do you think of this little one?" In the palm of his hand was my ring. It was so cute and romantic. He told me every time I mentioned being bummed about not having my ring ahead of time, he laughed to himself. He's such a brat sometimes.
I want your extra calories and your husband. I am seriously breaking one of the 10 commandments.
Are you coveting my husband's @ss? Sorry, I couldn't help it. He is a pretty wonderful man. God truly blessed with him and his stinky behind.
Also, if you read my diary yesterday, I didn't have extra calories to share, I actually had to borrow some from the day before. Whoops.

I remember going to school once with a huge rat's nest in my hair, and another time (kindergarden) where I screamed and kicked the wall so much that my mom gave up, slapped a bow on my head, and sent me to my school's picture day with a huge mass of tangles. My teacher tried her hardest to comb out my hair before I got my picture taken, but she couldn't do it... so I have that picture as proof that I could be difficult.
Wish I could see that. It sounds hilarious.
I love looking at my old 80's school pictures in general. They are so awesome with the lasers etc in the back. So many of them look terrible. I could tell I never really trusted the person taking the picture.0 -

ok, i just read this article and i honestly hadn't heard of any of these new medications. has anyone else read this/heard about them? thoughts?
also, i've been out of school for a few years, but unless numbers have changed their meaning, i don't see the massive, life changing benefit of a 5% weight loss. if you're 400lbs, that's only 20lbs, right? (ok, i'm going to feel really dumb if i am wrong ). which don't get me wrong, i think a 20lb weight loss at any size is great, but for 5%, is medication really the ONLY option?

Confession... 2 days later I am STILL working off the weight gained from the weekend. If all goes well I will see a loss that I can record, tomorrow.
Mine finally went back to normal this morning!

Uhhhh....NO! Dill pickles are fine...and I love fried pickles. But I seriously LOVE sweet pickles!!! I put 3 in my salad every day for lunch and again for dinner. For my salad dressing, I also use the sweet pickle juice instead of vinegar when I'm at the end of the jar (I usually use vinegar, Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb seasoning, and a bit of hot sauce). I have also just recently started putting sweet pickle relish over my salads as a yummy topping! Sweet pickles all day long, forever.
ETA: Yes, I realize the amount of sodium...
I got to page 1204 and then had to go back to find this post because I don't want you to be alone. I kept seeing everyone saying they don't like sweet pickles. I like sweet pickles too. I like both kinds of pickles.
Yay for @FroggyBug !!0 -

Thanks. I hope so, too! My mom's friend is going to try to get the association to send a blue one just like that one, so here's hoping! And having a wheelchair might mean being able to leave the house during flare ups to have dinner out and stuff, so that would be nice too--a change from laying on the couch all day, at least.
I agree--most people do forget that, including me, until my body forces me into some down time against my will. Taking care of yourself should never be a low priority. 0 -

Gosh darn it! Where do @KylerJaye and I find one of these kinds of guys?!
I found him at work. I actually hit him with a steel door leaving after my shift was over. I was 18 at the time, and have been smitten ever since. Maybe Mr. Sexy Pants (I think that's how you referred to him) will be your guy.

Okay, the ramen noodle talk reminds me of when my husband and I were engaged. We used to have disagreements that we would poll our friends and family about. One of these disagreements was about ramen noodles. I said no one actually likes ramen noodles and they are only eaten by poor college students. I was so confident about this that I agreed that if he won the poll, we could serve ramen noodles at our rehearsal dinner. He won...pretty much by a landslide.
Also, I read a story once about a women who ate nothing but ramen noodles, she was in her 20s but had the health of an 80 year old because of the lack of nutrients and sodium and all. Having said that...I think that ramen noodles are a perfectly fine choice as long as it's not the only thing you'll eat.0
