Susan in TN Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Note to self: do not eat any goodies at the neighbor's house. She's trying to get me to try some medical marijuana brownies for my pain. Not happening. (I have addiction issues). I have no problem what she eats or imbibes and it is legal here both medically and recreationally. But don't push it on me!Hey, but have you tried Magical Blue Essential Oil?

Renai Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 This is how it is pronounced (roughly), but it is spelled yarmulke. ETA: When I read your yamaka, what I said in my head was "yah-muh-kuh". In reality, the r is lightly pronounced. Thus, the "roughly". So, for all intensive purposes, irregardless of it all, get it right. #nailsonchalkboard #wellspokensnob I realize you did that on purpose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lots of little ducklings Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I sincerely hate when people come to my door to sell overpriced "educational" books and continue to give me the whole spiel even when I tell them 'thanks, but no'. I get he's (supposedly) in college and doing this as a summer job, but I don't want a questionably decent book that I can more than likely check out of the library. He was pretty cute though. Me too. But then I just politely ask which neighbor gave them my name. #revengeissweet 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJosMom Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I don't think marijuana is *physically* addictive. You can obviously be addicted to anything, but that should be less addictive than a prescription pain medication. I think. Uh, gonna disagree with you there, champ. Almost two decades as a prosecutor; evidence I saw says otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for clarity, in French the "h" at the beginning of hooyah would be silent (or non-existant) and there would be no "h" at the end. There would probably be 15 silent vowels and consonants, though! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hornblower Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hornblower, what do I want to eliminate pee smell from porous grout in the floor? I thought all mothers of boys knew this? :laugh: ( Pretty ironic that I can train any dog to sit in minutes but not my son....) Nature's Miracle or Petastic. Apply it cover with damp, wrung out towel, repeat in about 4h. How many times you repeat will depend on how bad you think it is. A couple applications might be enough or you might need more. Wipe & let it dry. Then do the sniff test. Repeat next day if necessary. If when it dries you no longer smell anything, then seal the grout. The key is to give it time to soak in and stay damp. The enzymes need time so if they dry out before they're done, they stop working. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I don't think I have ever started a thread that got so many responses. Maybe it's because it had nothing to do with homeschooling.

Renai Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 My 4 year old was in tears before going to sleep today. She decided she did not, in fact, want to get married and have babies because she does not want to live in a different house apart from me. I told her we could live next to each other. She said, what about the people living there before? Where would they go? And continued to cry. I told her she had 20 years before it should even be on her radar. She continued to cry. I finally gave up and told her she didn't have to marry, and could live with me forever. She dried up and said, "thank you, mommy." Then nursed and went to sleep. Sigh... Crazy kid. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I let her know we were both taken. So, she wondered how she would get a husband. I told her that God had someone perfect for her. We then prayed for her future husband (and her!). 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
