AMJ Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I am a fan of white lights, no blinking or other seizure inducing accoutrements. Classic and understated. I like all of our decos to be this way. As a matter of fact, the people that just moved in across the street put up one of those horrific, plasticy-looking blow up Santas, and it is giving me hives. Why oh why do people do this? It just reads tacky to me. Eta: I just read this through and want to clarify that I do not have a problem with colored lights for others, etc. and if anyone here actually does the big blow up dolls, I am sorry. I still love you, but I cannot abide by those things. :leaving: On-the-grass ornaments are popular here with people unable to climb ladders and unwilling to foot the bill to hire someone, but still want to show Christmas spirit. The inflatables are popular with folk who don't have enough storage space for the wire angels, reindeer, and polar bears. We have a polar bear DD11 fell in love with a long time ago (very small, and looks even more like a fluffy dog since I augmented his yellowing and thinning white tinsel "fur" this year) and an inflatable Snoopy on his dog house because duh, it's Snoopy!

AMJ Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I think she's just old. I suspected she paid in our room two weeks ago, but never found evidence. She's vomited a couple of times over the past couple of weeks under dd16's bed. Today, it seems every time she walks in my room, she squats to pee. I just had a thought: dh bought a litter a couple of weeks ago and I noticed it has a strong aroma to it. I wonder if she's avoiding the box because of that. Hmm... I'm trying to contact dh to make sure he buys a litter with no smell (fragrance). Oh, SOME litter! I thought you meant he bought a litter of kittens and she was showing her disapproval! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 There are plenty of people who are very fit on vegetarian & vegan diets. There are also people who are downright fat. Complex carb loading is an absurdly easy way to gain weight. But a young woman who is also coming from an athletic background should proceed carefully. I'd look at it as an opportunity to get some bio & nutrition reading done & get her involved in meal prep? My kids pretty much never had to eat what I made but by around 10-12, they were also expected to make stuff themselves or at least help significantly if they wanted something different than what dh & I were making, kwim? An easy & fast solution for the cook in the home would be to use some of the faux meats in your regular recipes. oopp sorry - meant to add this link too http://www.nomeatathlete.com/vegetarian-diet-athletes/ Thanks so much for that link! Both she and I cook. Of course, I'm better at meal planning. She did ask me today to help her come up with a meal plan. That really is no big deal, as I basically can just add meat on the side for those who want it. She's not really interested in replacing with faux meats, as much as wanting to be healthy as a vegetarian. I've always had veggie protein options in the house, it's a matter of her eating. {deleted personal info} I understood her concern of not wanting to gain weight after quitting dance cold turkey, but she wasn't doing it right. And now, this. kwim? I see it as, "if it's not one thing, it's another." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 She says, because it will be healthier for her. Then points out all these people on the internet who are vegetarians. In other words, she doesn't even know. My best friend isn't quite a vegetarian but does have a lot of dietary restrictions. She really likes Isa Does It and Mayim Bialik's vegan cookbook -- she says they have really great and filling recipes, most of which she really can eat. She has a seasonal outside job and really needs to eat plenty during the season, and she feels well-fed cooking from these books. Perhaps one or the other of these as a Christmas present for your DD if she persists in this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsuga Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I am an unsympathetic character and sometimes I need sympathy. I don't understand why it sounds entitled to want to buy a house or eventually retire if you have worked your whole life. I don't understand what I am missing when I want to send my children to our local state U, why that is so "entitled". I am tired of seeking advice on the Internet and in real life and having people repeat the same advice over and over, advice that is not working for like 90% of the population, and then they expect me to be like, "ah yes I see, obviously my problem is that I have a fancy bought-used 2008 Japanese commuter car, clearly my addiction to fancy gadgets has done me in financially". I swear to god all I wanted was to work my whole life and buy a house and drive a crappy car and help my kids through college.

Susan in TN Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Monday, Monday (da da, da da-da da) The wind blew over the Christmas tree last night, even though we tied it to the two porch chairs. We are kinda sorta on break now, except that we still have science to catch up on, literature, and music stuff to do. I also need to order flowers for MIL's birthday. It occurred to me this morning that MIL has had 2 hip surgeries in the past year and she is still alive. This is significant because she put off having the surgeries for YEARS after an Indian shaman told her sister that she would die from the anesthesia. And get a hotel for the trip back from NY. And floss. And ride my bike. I am sure I need to do more Christmas shopping but I first have to figure out what I have already, ala Lynn's Closet Plan. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Good Morning! We survived a really busy weekend. The Christmas programs went well and Bride and Groom are happily married. Two more programs this week, but the rehearsals have already happened and one of the programs is during a regularly-scheduled church service. So, not so bad. Mark, Great costume!! Jedi Junie would have been thrilled to have been there! Oh, and I could have used your stilts for our choir production this weekend. The original seating plan put me behind a 6-foot tall tenor. Um, I'm short. Choir director moved a half-dozen people around and Voila! I could see! Not sure how much homeschool we'll do this week.

I swear to god all I wanted was to work my whole life and buy a house and drive a crappy car and help my kids through college. I don't know why this is too much to ask. Owning a home = more return for your money than renting, and another level of financial security. Sound financial move and something worth striving for. Wanting to retire after working all of your life = mental soundness and more time to devote to family, if you so wish. My ILs are both retired and they are busier now than they were when they were employed full-time. Their busy-ness is their choice, however, and they are pursuing what is most important to them. It's important that there be some worthwhile reward to look forward to (such as retirement), or people lose heart and die while still working. Striving for retirement is a goal sound in mind and logic. Wanting to send your kids to a local state U = very sound financial decision and recognition of quality in the state U your taxes have helped support. Getting in-state tuition knocks a HUGE chunk off of the cost of the kids' college educations. State Us are intended for the state's residents first and foremost, which is why they not only charge higher tuition for out-of-state students, they also limit the number they will accept and don't usually accept those until after they've processed applications from in-state students. If that makes you and your kids, as residents of the state, "entitled", then darn right and that's the way it should be! As for your car, it's old enough not to be considered a "late model" anymore, so I don't understand why anyone would think you paid a lot of money for it. Those who can afford to buy new quite often trade out the car for a newer one after 3-5 years, before warranties run out. There's still a lot of life left in those vehicles, and it can be had for a decidedly lower cost. Very sound financial move! Now I need a nose-thumbing icon, because clearly those nitwits deserve it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkW Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 So, this is week two of telecommuting with the blessing of the boss. Nobody will return my emails, though, and people avoid my calls. I've been told that I can work on my current project from home "until further notice" (paraphrased) and just to assume I don't need to come in unless I'm specifically requested at a meeting. So, OK, but I still need managerial input on various questions regarding that project and other ad hoc stuff that comes up. Not a single email has been responded to in over a week and when I finally called my Director I got "I'm on my way to a super important meeting with regulators, can't talk." So... umm... what the heck? I've been on good terms with all of these people right along, but now it's like they're afraid talking to me will open them to liability, or something, or they're resentful? I honestly have no clue. Normally because I'm a cynical sort of guy (you might have noticed) I can come up with lots of explanations for stuff like this, but I'm dumbfounded. Radio silence. I know the org is against telecommuting as a rule, although it does happen here and there. I don't get giving their blessing for it and then just excommunicating me, though. Are they trying to drive me to quit so that they don't have to deal with the paperwork of trying to fire a sick person? Ugh. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
