  1. That dryer sounds broken lol. If you don't have a front loader washer start there. It spins WAY more water out of your clothes and cuts the drying time down. I do laundry for 8 of us and never have to wait for the dryer to catch up. I have had Maytag and don't think they are that great. My mom had a Kenmore dryer for 20 years before it died.

  2. Ask her. And listen carefully :)

     

    As a seven-year BC survivor with many BC-survivor friends, I am still fascinated by how differently each of us approached (and continues to approach) our cancer experience.

     

    If you want to read and learn more about BC, my number one go-to site is breastcancer.org

     

    In fact, I recommend that you read their Stages of Breast Cancer article - here is the link. BC stages are usually defined by a number (0 through IV). When I hear "advanced stage breast cancer" I usually think of Stage IV cancer. But you said that it is thought to be confined to the breast, and Stage IV is defined as BC that has spread beyond both the breast and the lymph nodes. The terminology can be confusing.

     

    Oh, and while it MIGHT be good for you to read and learn about BC, please remember that it might NOT be good for your friend to become the recipient of your new knowledge. The internet can be a very scary place for someone dealing with BC.

     

    You know your friend best, and I am sure that she will be grateful for your support!!!! Take your cues from your friend and don't worry too much about getting it "right."

     

    This. It really depends on the person. If it were me I would want the chin-up and carry on attitude. Some people might not like that.

  3. Your post is rather misleading. The catalog actually says:

     

     

     

    Those courses are listed as examples of courses that could be used to fulfill those requirements; it does not say that those specific courses must be used. In cases where specific courses are required, e.g. English Comp, that is spelled out explicitly in the catalog.

     

    If you hope that your child will graduate from college without ever being exposed to views that do not strictly conform to a conservative Christian worldview, then perhaps you should find a conservative Christian college, rather than complaining that a state university is offering courses with a "liberal" worldview. And, frankly, if your student is so cognitively vulnerable that a few courses taught from other points of view would "brainwash" her, then perhaps you need to beef up the logic and critical thinking components of her curriculum.

     

    ETA: Are you making these plans for your 11 year old?

    I have to agree. Seems a bit overboard. I would be more concerned about the paranoia associated with the term brainwashing. She will be living out in the real world, right? If you don't want mainstream fork over the money for private.

    No news yet. Last update was middle of last month or so. Only to say that it was being worked on. I think everyone is getting anxious to have their own social groups back up. PMing you.

     

    Well you can make fun of reusable bag users(based on the scientific need to save the earth) but not a mythical entity that created the earth. Funny how it all pans out when it comes to snarkiness here.

  5. Up until this storm they were never sure of how it would pan out. We are under a warning now with 10-15 expected in Northern Fauquier. Doesn't really matter to me but I am having them get out all of their stuff tonight so I don't have to deal with it in the morning. By Friday afternoon it will be gone and then we will have flooding lol.
