LW: You'll be the first to know when I get it all set up. Maybe one of these days I'll get a big batch made and send ya'll samples and you can give me your honest opinions.

(Which works fine until they call me at midnight. ) I always lov

You stand behind the child, wrap your arms around her, and then lower the two of you to the floor, sitting there with her until she gets her emotions back under control. Have you ever had a child throw their head back into your nose while you are trying to hold them from behind? I've seen people end up with broken noses when they tried this because they t

you have a point Karma. But I have to admit I'm kind of a chicken. I hate failing at things and sometimes hesistate because of that. I know that old saying "you only fail if you don't try" but it doesn't help my worrying. Maybe one of these days I'll take the plunge though and see what happens. If I do I'll let you all know. Shoot, if I do setup an ebay store then

Thanks, guys. I've been seriously thinking about it. I like working mostly for the adult interaction that I didn't have when I was staying home with the kids. (I work as a guard at the county jail.) It is a stressful job and I'm only intermittant so the hours aren't steady. I've gone one month from having only 69.5 hours on my paycheck to this month having 134 hours.

the problem with the sex offender list is that sometimes people get registered onto it before they have even been convicted of the crime. I've noticed that when a suspected sex offender bonds out of jail, he is registered on the list before he even goes to trial. Now, that means that even if he is found innocent he has already been on that list and somebody is going to see it and in a way they will be ostrisized (forgive the spelling) just because they

We are still paying on the hospital bills when she was born because my husbands insurance didn't cover much of it. But now that I'm working we have another income and

This story was on A Current Affair tonight. I usually can't stand that show and tonight was no exception but I did stop and watch the first part of it tonight. The school had video tape in the classrooms and in the vice principals office. They showed it and it shows her in a fullblown tantrum. She was throwing things and totally trashed the vice principals office. She balled up her fist at one point in time and tried to hit one woman. They then did show the police handcuffing her and it did take

Signs you have lived in Nebraska too long..... {I don't quite qualify but it's close} ...you've been on television at least 3 times describing the sound of a tornado. {Nope, never been on tv to describe it but I could if I had too.} ...you take pride in knowing that on Saturdays, Memorial stadium is the third largest city in the state.
