wendyroo Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Any long distance running kids? Well, based on the speed and extent of the messes they make, I estimate all of my kids run several miles each day. Never in a straight line and all in different directions, mind you, but, yeah, they cover quite a bit of distance. Wendy 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I just love watching the lightbulb go on Um... okay. Usually it happens too fast for me to really enjoy. And if it's in the middle of the night or the morning I usually hate it. Or when the kids turn it on and off over and over.

luuknam Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 healthcare - bronze or silver? I know someone who takes colloidal silver (which I wouldn't recommend - it can turn you a grayish blue). Never heard of people using bronze for medical reasons. I suggest finding an MD? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 lol how much did they take? I imagine a lot. Like eating too many carrots turns you orange. She's not blue yet. From the internet, I get the impression it varies per person how much it takes. Carrots temporarily make you orange (if you eat a LOT for some stretch of time). Silver has cumulative effects, happens quite suddenly when it happens, and is more or less permanent (although apparently there is some sort of laser treatment that helps now). The person I know says that it's in nanoparticles and that the bottle says it won't make you blue (because they're nanoparticles - and we all know we should trust everything any manufacturer says, right). FWIW, there is no scientific evidence that drinking colloidal silver helps for any medical condition. I'd understand using it if there was no normal healthcare, or maybe even if you have some possibly lethal condition and you're like "why not?", but as a normal part of your preventive healthcare routine... no. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though depending on the size of the baby, it could roll over and squash the chihuahua! Every time I read that thread title, I kept thinking that if you have to ask people on the internet whether to get a dog or a foster baby, you should probably just stick to a dog (or neither). Reminds me of a joke I've heard in the past, about a couple wanting a dog but the landlord didn't allow pets, so they had a baby instead. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell at a glance how "Asian" your math is. I remember the Math Wars. I fought the good fight with battle scars to prove it. Conceptualize THAT! Honey, I can nurse a 25lb toddler, dictate a spelling lesson, and help the 8yo with his word problem all at the same time! I probably have dinner in the crockpot too. (Don't worry. We take our carts back at the grocery store.) Have you SEEN my bookshelves!?! Not those! (Actual books...) A whole shelf dedicated to books authored by SWB... What gives it away? Is it the Ticonderoga #2 that holds my bun into place? The distant look in my eyes as I try to remember my middle name or where I left the coffee cup that I just.had.in.my.hand?
