I would take her to an orthopedic surgeon...pronto.
I agree.
-
I see it, I just don't understand it.
-
No advice, but I'll admit this is one of the reasons I hs my son. The kid would never make it onto a bus at 7am. :glare:
-
The Illusionist with Edward Norton! It was fabulous!
:iagree:This and The Prestige are both good, but neither is on instant. Boo.
-
For future reference... Shutter Island is a good conspiracy flick, but it may be too intense for your taste. It's on instant.

Ime, there is a genetic correlation, but factors like those Diane mentioned can alter things. Like Diane's daughter, my dancer dd started her menses later than I. I'm also going through menopause at approximately the same age as my mom and grandma and with the same general symptomology.

And my dh just doesn't talk like a woman. :). He listens to the short version. Gives me a suggestion to fix it. Moves on. I want to TALK about it.:D
Exactly!
-
Yes, I do, and I'm grateful. Not to knock women whose husbands are their best friends, but I think a woman needs another woman to talk to. There are things I just don't want to discuss with my dh, kwim? Not to mention, sometimes I need to kvetch about him. :D
I have two friends I've been friends with forever, but my closest current friend I met through ds's theater group. I take my friends where I can get them. :)

It doesn't matter what the name means in another language. If the nickname options are not ideal, don't use them. IZZY = Icky, to me. But some may not mind.
Dd's friend Isabella uses this nickname. Her mom hates it, and always calls her Bella. :)
-
I don't think enough people know that Isabella and Elizabeth are the same name that it should matter. I only know because my great-grandma was Isabella in Italy and Elizabeth when she emigrated to this country. :)

Thanks for sharing. Ds liked, esp. after seeing Pirates 4 yesterday.

Have you read Dr. Andrew Weil's book Spontaneous Healing? I read it when I had Lyme disease. In it, he talks about using natural medicine, diet, and mental/emotional/spiritual energy to help manage chronic conditions. There are many stories of patients who have achieved remission. Your library most likely carries it.

Our mailman drives up our very long driveway and leaves packages by the door, and even rings the bell if it's raining outside. I need to bake that guy a Christmas fruitcake...

Thank you everyone for your kindness and for listening to my hurt. I got up this morning, I took that recommended hot bath (with epsom salt.. aaaahhhh), and went out to conquer the day.
I finally made an appointment with a new rheumatologist. My old one is not working for me anymore. I'm excited at the idea of a fresh perspective on my health.
Have you ever considered seeing a naturopath? They can be extremely helpful in managing chronic conditions. I'm sorry you're in pain. :grouphug:

We call them carbonated beverages, doesn't everyone? :001_huh:
JK. We call them soda.

Can you write something about the process? For instance, "Sentence structure was a bit choppy, but was reworked satisfactorily"? Keystone has a rubric for essays somewhere on the site.
Congrats on being done. I so wish ds was!
-
That said, I have gotten many academic awards in my school career that I don't feel I worked all that hard for so they didn't feel all that special most of the time. It's kinda overrated.
:iagree:As well, I totally take what people say about their kids' "accomplishments" with that a grain (or six) of salt.
-
I rarely (like twice per year) drink soda, but when I do, I ask for Coke.
-
I understand what Mergath is saying, but in the context of asking for prayer, it makes more sense. If it were just, "Hey, fyi - my dh is having a stroke!", I might wonder, too. I'd just ignore, however.
-
I did miss Will, Elizabeth, Norrington, and the two bumbling pirates, but enjoyed seeing Gibbs again and I thought Blackbeard was cast well.
Blackbeard was my favorite character in this one. Loved him... well, as much as one can love an evil, bloodthirsty villian. ;)
-
Wow. I see serious counseling in someone's future. Poor kid.

jennifermarie, if you remember a kiss from a mermaid keeps a sailor from drowning. Can't really say more than that without spoiling it for others. :)

posted here accidentally
Not to belittle the point, but accidentally asking for a dip recipe in a troll thread is what you might call ironical. ;)
Do you get offended when someone asks the grade-level of your child?

I think this falls under the category of offensensitivity as discussed in another thread.
ETA: hs'ers like the one you describe are part of the reason people think we're all nuts.
