    I would, if I were on speaking terms with them at the moment (don't ask!) :glare: I'll let ds tell them!

    I know I didn't NEED to prove anything to anyone, but it sure is nice to have tangible proof that homeschooling doesn't kill your kids' chances in life!

    My IL's have always been VERY vocal about their displeasure with us homeschooling through high school. Our dc wouldn't get into good colleges, it's not "academic" enough, etc. Well, oldest ds took the ACT a few weeks ago and, can I just say, got a VERY high score!! :w00t: I'm so glad we "stunted" his learning like we did. He might be a genius if we hadn't! :lol:

    The 6 years I lived in Michigan, it was near impossible to find Dr. Pepper. :glare: NO! Mr. Pibb will NOT do!

    My dh broke our patio door one time. He was trying to install a special kind of pin lock, followed the directions and all. We heard the drill bit hit the glass and then got to see a stained glass window appear before our eyes. It was cool to watch but a pain in the rear to clean up and expensive to replace. So sorry it happened to you!

    I made an appt with the dr. In about an hour.

    That's what I was thinking too. Rats.

    17yo ds twisted his ankle/foot playing frisbee last night. I would normally consider it just a twist, but he says it feels like his foot is turned in some. It's slightly swollen with no bruising. The sore spot is on the top of his foot, on the outside near the ankle, if that makes sense. Does it need an x-ray?

    I don't want to scare you unnecessarily, but, having known someone whose teenaged son died from the choking game while "taking one of his long showers", I thought it worth mentioning.

    This is what I did too!

    Do we have the same in-laws? Sorry your day was ruined! :glare:

    How do you avoid the paparazzi? :D My dd got me started on Adele.

    As my 17yo ds said "here's your sign!" :lol:

    WOW! Thanks for the lists! Can't wait to start adding some new songs. :D
  15. zookeeper
    I've never had much music on my phone but since I've been running for the last month, I've been listening to more. Well I'm getting really bored with the same 10-15 songs I've got on there. What are your favorite songs to listen to while you walk or run? :bigear:

    It surprisingly spreads very nicely. It doesn't absorb super quick like a moisturizer so you have a little time to spread it.
  17. zookeeper
    That's what I was thinking too! Mixing it with my moisturizer has helped make it not so harsh AND I only use it about 2X a week.
  18. zookeeper
    Yes, it takes care of wrinkles as well.
  19. zookeeper
    Yes. I still have to have a prescription for it. It's called tretinoin and comes in a few different strengths. My dr gave me the 0.1% and I think it's a bit strong. I started mixing it with my moisturizer so I can slowly get used to it. I've read good reviews online about it , especially for over 40 so I'm hoping for the same result.

    What about under the fridge where it's warm?
  21. zookeeper
    Don't confuse generic with cheap! lol!
  22. zookeeper
    I've just started using the generic form and am wondering what other people's experiences have been. Care to share?

    My 7yo ds has two ribs that are a bit strange shaped. We had it checked out when he was about 2, but the dr said it was no big deal. Ds calls them his funny bones.
  24. zookeeper
    Yes, I do. I'd be happy to discuss it if you want. :grouphug:

    I'm going to be 41 in 2 mths and I feel better than I've felt in well over 10 years. I've never had weight issues but used to never have any energy, always wanted to sleep, etc. I was finally diagnosed sub clinical hypothyroid. I started treating my adrenal, thyroid and hormones and I'm SO glad I did. Now I've got tons of energy! Have been working out for about 7 months now. I wouldn't go back for anything!
