This isn't helpful to the OP, but I find this ironic. I started having loads of B.H. early in my pregnancy, which continued throughout the duration, and informed my NP as a heads up. She basically insisted, at more than one appointment, that it was round ligament pain. It was kind of bizarre. I was definitely experiencing a tightening of the uterus and no pain, so I don't know what she was thinking. I liked her otherwise.

How about the romantic suspense novels of Mary Stewart, especially those written in the '50s and '60s? I particularly remembering liking Madam, Will You Talk?, Nine Coaches Waiting, and This Rough Magic.

Here's a website that sells essentially the same indoor gym seen in the thread that wendyroo linked above, since it's currently unavailable on Amazon: https://www.limikids.com/collections/indoor-gym The one on Amazon looks to be the Pegasus model, except with a rope ladder instead of a swing.

WE HAVE A WINNER! Thank you! I found a synopsis here, and DH's memory of the story was pretty accurate considering he hadn't seen it in decades. No Vincent Price, as noted, but the lead actor definitely resembles VP in his goateed horror star days. The synopsis page contains a photo of the man's nightmare image, and here's the man's painting. Poor DH has apparently been trying to figure out what movie this was for many years, not that he wants to see it again (and it looks pretty terrible, honestly.) Oh, and here's the trailer on YT. WTM to the rescue, again!

Thanks, I showed him this, and he said it was definitely something he watched. But that's a great urban legend! He also gave me another detail: the painter/killer kept the bodies in a freezer to keep them from decomposing.

He thinks it was Vincent Price, but he could absolutely be remembering wrong, especially since he's not the movie buff in the family, I am. Or perhaps VP was in it, but in a small, supporting role. Honestly, his memory for movies is abysmal, so he could be remembering everything wrong, but we still want to try to figure it out. The story sounds nice and creepy, and could be a good watch!

I thought of that, but have you seen Vincent Price's IMDb list? He has 207 acting credits! That will be our last resort. He thinks it was in color, but definitely can't say for sure.

UPDATE: We've named that movie, thanks to hjffkj. It's The Playgirl Killer, a Canadian B-film from 1967. See my post (#15) below for links to info on the movie if you're curious. My husband recently mentioned a movie he saw probably 30 years ago and we've been trying to figure out what it was he saw. Being that he saw it so long ago, his memory of it is very vague. My husband remembers it as a movie (probably in color, not black and white) starring Vincent Price as a man that dreams of a shipwreck, with people who died and the devil in there somewhere. He wants to recreate the dream in a painting and starts killing people so he can set their bodies up as models for the painting. He keeps their bodies in the freezer to keep them from decomposing. He struggles with finding someone to be the model for the devil. At the end, he dies somehow, and his face appears in the painting as the devil's face. Now, keep in mind that some details may be wrong (examples: it may have been from an old tv show, not a film; it may have been in black and white; Vincent Price may not have been the lead actor). If anyone has any ideas about what he saw, we'd love to hear them!

I have no dog in the fight between Hyundai and Honda, but I do have a personal anecdote. At our auto repair shop a couple weeks ago (for our aging Saturn) I mentioned having once window shopped for either a Hyundai or Honda, and both the guys there said to not buy a Hyundai: they have a great warranty, but right after it ends at 100k miles is when the vehicles start falling apart. They both had no problems with Honda.

Like LuvToRead asked, maybe it's your pop up blocker or some other setting. The "Phone" option doesn't open a new window, but it does kind of reload to a new page.I just went through the whole process on my Windows and Mac computers and everything worked as it should. FYI, I did notice that you can check the tiny check box to the left of the item(s) you're having issues with to be even more specific.

I'm glad you got you refund, but it would be nice to get this figured out in case you have a problem with an order in the future. Like the pps wrote, you select "Help" in the dark blue at the very bottom of any Amazon web page. Then you scroll down to "Need More Help?" (under "Browse Help Topics") and hover over it. Select "Contact Us." You should then see a screen that looks like the first attached picture, showing your most recent order. If needed, select "Choose a Different Order" (purple arrow on the picture) in section 1, "What can we help you with?". Click on the order you need or click "Load More Orders" if needed. Do not at any time click the "Order #" link, or you'll be taken to the "Order Details" page, which is not what you want. After you see your order displayed on this "Contact Us" page, select the option you want from the drop down menu in section 2, "Tell us more about your issue" (red arrow). Subsequent drop down menus will show up below the first as the system asks for more details. Eventually section 3, "How would you like to contact us?" will show up below section 2, and you'll have the option to chat or receive a phone call (see second attached picture).

No, I don't think they're going to have any idea if you return the second book. First, I have no reason to believe that they keep track of how you described the first book's condition, and I doubt the guy in the warehouse receiving your return is in the loop. Second, it doesn't actually matter which you return, because you have a right to return any book that is not in the condition it's supposed to be in. If you return a book with obvious issues, you'll get your refund. I've dealt with Amazon for many years without issue.

If you'd be happy with your current book's condition for a cheaper price, I'd try again with a different service rep to get a discounted, like Cat suggested. I also was not able to do that myself recently for a third-party, fulfilled by Amazon order (I had to return and reorder, like you). But if you want the book in new condition, order the replacement with the expedited shipping they offered, but wait to return the first book until you receive the replacement. Then return whichever book is in worse condition. You have 30 days to return the first book before they charge you for the second, so you have plenty of time.

TMI, but a while back both DH and I got a 24 hr bug of some kind where we each had one incident (two incidents for DH, perhaps?) of loose leakage that came with absolutely no warning. One moment I was lying in bad and the next there was a bit of leakage. Thankfully, I had anticipated it might happen to me since it had already happened to DH so I was wearing a long menstrual pad in case. So, it seems like it could happen to your DS with no warning to him.

My favorite is the mannequin on the mower in the back yard.

For DH, his PCP referred him for the sleep study and a few weeks later a local sleep study/supplies company called him to set up an appointment. I don't know if things are different for children, but I'd just start with her PCP or ENT. ETA: zoobie beat me to it!

Count me among the inconvenienced. Let's just say that I don't often get the benefit of the second layer of cotton for absorption. Drives me crazy. Or it did until recently, when I started using Carefree liners daily. So much better. My booty is decent sized, but not noticeably big.

Sounds like Sean Donovan by Lori Wick.

I used to use a dumb phone that had a full keyboard (see here: https://www.amazon.com/Alcatel-871A-Prepaid-GoPhone-AT/dp/B00ACPF9IQ). It was very easy to use and text with. Perhaps you can purchase a phone like that online and use it with your Tracfone number. They allow you to "bring your own phone," if it's compatible. Also, you can get inexpensive smart phones for $30, from Tracfone or other carriers. We have LG smart phones that retail for $49 that we got for free for switching to MetroPCS, and they work fine.

Thanks everyone, this has been very helpful!

Update in OP, with more context to explain why I've listed those options.

United States Americans, that is. :) Hello Hive! I'm helping someone writing American English subtitles for a French film. In the film, a man says good night, every night, to the family with whom he is currently living, using the exact same words. The man is saying that he hopes they have a good night. I'm trying to decide how his words should be written in English that would sound most natural to Americans. Can you ladies please help me out by choosing the option you think sounds best, even though Americans would not naturally use these particular phrases? Note #1: I did not include an Other option because we're not really open to other options at this point. Note #2: I'm not including the original French for reference because I want to know what sounds best in English, disregarding the accuracy of the translation, which is not in question. ETA: For more context, the man is being formal with his "hosts," as he is a WWII German soldier who has been placed in the home of a French family during the Occupation. He is also trying to be gracious and kind because he knows they don't want him there. The phrases I've included in the poll are, of course, very formal and not modern at all, but are very appropriate for the time and circumstances of the film.

Happy for you! Last year we had to change doctors, and it has made all the difference in my DH's health. Having a doctor who actively looks for health issues, even ones we're not aware of ourselves, is a blessing. Don't be surprised if your DH gets a diagnosis of sleep apnea; my DH used to do the *exact* same weird breathing thing before being diagnosed with severe apnea. That puffing air thing used to drive me nuts, especially when it was right into my face! :D

I apologize from the start, because this is really long. My 8 years old son and I are using Fluenz German together (they also have Spanish and Chinese). The program is expensive and geared toward older learners, but with only occasional further explanations from me, my son doesn't have any problem following along. I think the program is superior to just about every program I researched, (I researched a lot!) because it explains slowly, step by step, how the language works and why (which Rosetta does not in any way do). You don't learn pre-determined phrases and vocab lists with occasional notes on grammar: you learn individual, useful words and in-depth grammar concepts and are then taught how to build your own phrases. Don't worry, though: the grammar is not jargon heavy at all; grammar concepts are taught in a very basic, general way. My son has not had trouble following what's going on, even before he had done any English grammar lessons. Each lesson teaches a grammar concept or two and/or some vocab through a dialogue between two parties, which gets broken down almost word by word by a tutor in the 10-15 minute lesson video. In the case of German, the tutor is Nora, a lovely native German speaker. In the videos, she looks right at the camera and speaks to the viewer, and it feels like she's teaching you personally. It's kind of silly, but we really like "visiting" with Nora, and almost miss her whenever we take a break from Fluenz! Everything she discusses is shown in easy to read words next to her, with color coding to highlight what she's talking about. With the slow (but not boring) pace and clarity of speaking and visuals, it's very easy to follow the lesson videos. Each lesson video is then followed by 13 "workouts" (homework!), which have you practicing the new content as well as reviewing older content via speaking, listening, reading, and writing. You will both translate from your studied language and translate into the language. Each lesson takes an hour or more to get through, so we split each up into sections and take a few days to get through one lesson. I also am the one who operates the program and does the typing. I would not use Fluenz for your age group without doing it along with them. Fluenz also provides Audio CDs for additional review. The German CDs feature Fluenz's founder and a native German speaker presenting content that has you repeating words and phrases, and translating into and from German. The content is review, but is often presented in new ways. Later levels have the native speaker reading "emails" from a friend in German before she breaks them down into pieces to translate them, which really improves your listening comprehension. Fluenz feels interactive, organic, and immersive. There are no paragraphs of dry text to read through and memorize, like in textbooks. You can go through a sample German lesson here, though it is missing two workouts that have you speaking the lesson dialogue. Just click on lesson 3. Fluenz German and Spanish each have 5 levels available. You could start with just Level 1 and see how you like it. I bought all five because buying in bulk is cheaper in the end. I think Fluenz is amazing, and would be happy to answer any questions you may have about it.
