HippieChick58 replies on Dec 7, 2018:
@Closeted, @Maindawg She is a congressperson. However she serves in the lower half of the congress, the House of Representatives. The upper half is the Senate and each state gets two and are referred to as Senators. The House is made up of a number representatives from each state, depending upon the population of the state. I don't mean to talk down to you, I am trying for clarity.

HippieChick58 replies on Dec 7, 2018:
Well, you might be a minority. You may be trying to avoid politics, but politics is on the mind of possibly of a majority of folks on this site. If not a majority then still a good many. So, what can you do. Be selective about what you read. Is there anything in that headline that made you think it was not a political post? You may have read it but apparently others hadn't and they seem to have appreciated that it was posted. You could block all the folks that make political postings, again that would be a good many people. I am the OP, I am a fairly prolific poster as I'm a fairly prolific reader and I'm addicted to this site. I post on numerous forums. If you block me you might miss something good. However, if that is a risk you're willing to take, go for it. And Season's Greetings to you!

HippieChick58 replies on Dec 6, 2018:
I switched radio stations recently because my usual went to all Christmas format. So my alternative station has The John Tesh Radio Show. As I was driving home tonight John talked about how expressing gratitude makes us happier. IMHO, happiness is fleeting and ephemeral. I am more looking for less stress and more contentment. In my experience that is close to happiness. So by noting the good things that happen each day you will acknowledge gratitude and experience something very close to happiness. Use a cup, use a mug, use a tall glass, just do it. For me, my favorite color is pink, hence the pink post its that I used. I am going to restart my bowl tonight, and I am going to use many colors of post its. (side note: I've been organizing my house as I have time to, I'm unemployed. Somehow over the past many years I bought LOTS of post it notes. Now they are all in one place, in the same drawer and OMG it is like the damn things bred in captivity! So I'm the queen of post its, multi colored and decorated post its.)

Congrats on your 1 year anniversary!! Did you do anything to celebrate the big day? I still have 2.75 months to go for I reach my anniversary. It's a little hard to believe I've been free from religion for nearly a year.
HippieChick58 replies on Dec 4, 2018:
I've been an atheist for a few years. And no, aside from posting I really didn't mark the day, in fact as I posted I missed mentioning it. I celebrate my freedom from religion all the time. I wear my Ag.com shirts to the gym so it gets plenty of views. I want more people to know about the site, strength in numbers.

It's getting to be winter soon. Don't you know women stop shaving their legs during the cold weather. And, as far as anything else being shaved, I stopped that a while back, too. Just trim it once in a while. But, I do shave the pits year round.
HippieChick58 replies on Dec 2, 2018:
I haven't shaved anything in several years. Hair on the legs never gets longer than about a quarter inch, and it is so blonde and fine I can't see it without glasses. In the pits it might get 1/2", but again blonde and fine. I don't miss shaving at all! I lost my eyebrows because they turned gray and faded away. I do darken those in if I put makeup on. They are there, but you can't see them.

Once I have over 12,000 then I figure I can couch potato for the rest of the day. The end of the hall to the living room wall is only about 40 steps, so I need to get creative to get the steps, or go batty.

May not be relevant, but I had bronchiolitis when young because I was allergic to milk, which affected my lungs, making me sick several times every winter. When at 50 I stopped milk, my winter spate of colds stopped, too.
HippieChick58 replies on Nov 29, 2018:
This little guy is allergic to the protein in milk and soy. It is called MSPI or Milk Soy Protein Intolerance. He has been on special formula since he was about 4 weeks old. The current bug is just a damn rotten lousy bug. His mother's cousin has Cystic Fibrosis that affects the lungs, so he has already been tested for that, and he is negative. It is just a given that children in daycare will be exposed to lots of bugs and frequently be sick. The upside in theory is that they will have a stronger immune system as they get older.

The current bug is just a damn rotten lousy bug. His mother's cousin has Cystic Fibrosis that affects the lungs, so he has already been tested for that, and he is negative. It is just a given that children in daycare will be exposed to lots of bugs and frequently be sick. The upside in theory is that they will have a stronger immune system as they get older.

@Alshaytan I am sorry for your upbringing, however it has made you wise. I told my girls that if they were not planning on becoming pregnant then they better be actively working to prevent it if they were being intimate with anyone anytime. I told them this in HS and clearly laid out to them what a pregnancy would do to the rest of their lives. The first grandchild was produced when the youngest was 26 and had been married almost 2 years. I took responsibility for my own reproduction choices, and I made sure my kids did. Yes, I wish every man and woman took responsibility for their choices. If men are spreading their sperm around they have to be willing to deal with the consequences, and women need to either prevent pregnancy on their end or make sure their partner understands what the outcome could be and is willing to shoulder that responsibility. I believe no child is illegitimate, but there are great numbers of illegitimate parents.

Anxiety is frequently worries about the future, or regrets of the past. I have dealt with anxiety for about 12 years on a frequent basis, at one point I was medicated. The meds worked, but the side effect was that it helped me to make some less than cautious decisions. So I have been off all anxiety and depression meds for a few years, however I still had the issues to deal with. A family member recommended an app called CALM, it is guided meditation. I have used the app for almost 2 months, and daily for the last month. I am not "cured" as there is no cure, however my anxiety is under control. I am sleeping better, my resting heart rate has dropped to normal, and I have more peace than I have had for years. And I'm unemployed right now, left my last job about 3 months ago under less than ideal conditions. Yeah, I called it retired, but I don't have enough income to really retire and be insured at the same time. So, I meditate daily, sometimes several times a day. All I can tell you is I'm so much better than I was, I wish I had learned this long ago.

My dog ate some Girl Scout badges that were stapled to a piece of paper. How is that for random, loved that dog but OMG he was a vacuum cleaner at times. So, staples in the badges, I wanted them out. I made a peanut butter sandwich and doused it in Hydrogen Peroxide. He vacuumed that down as well. I sent him out to the yard, and within a few seconds/minutes he was hurling his toenails. We found the remnants of the badges, but no way was I going to look for staples. My dog also once ate paper towels that had been drenched in hydrogen peroxide and laid on stains in the carpet. It is a great stain remover. He was the best dog ever except for his tendency to eat anything!

Nothing was "fun" about it. If your vet has seen your cat, I have noticed if you know what they have gotten into they...

My dog ate some Girl Scout badges that were stapled to a piece of paper. How is that for random, loved that dog but OMG he was a vacuum cleaner at times. So, staples in the badges, I wanted them out. I made a peanut butter sandwich and doused it in Hydrogen Peroxide. He vacuumed that down as well. I sent him out to the yard, and within a few seconds/minutes he was hurling his toenails. We found the remnants of the badges, but no way was I going to look for staples. My dog also once ate paper towels that had been drenched in hydrogen peroxide and laid on stains in the carpet. It is a great stain remover. He was the best dog ever except for his tendency to eat anything!

We met a young Lab while on a walk, named Dyson. His owners told us about his siblings, Hoover, Kirby, Shark and Bissel ? Anyone who’s ever met a Lab knows how total appropriate vacuums are for this breed

Apparently they love shellfish too, which is forbidden to them by scriptures.

@orange_girl I have never tried it with cats, so I am not sure. I googled it and got a big fat NO! It is not safe to induce vomiting in cats with hydrogen peroxide. It says: There is no safe way to induce vomiting at home with cats. Hydrogen peroxide is often used to induce vomiting in dogs, but is never safe to give to cats. Cats are sensitive to hydrogen peroxide and can develop irritation and bleeding of their stomach, which has been fatal to some cats. https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/pet-safety-tips/five-pet-poisoning-first-aid-misconceptions/ I am so glad you asked that, I just learned a great deal.

@orange_girl Hydrogen Peroxide will make dogs barf, which is a great way to clear out their digestive tracts of stuff they shouldn't have eaten. My dog ate some stuff with staples in it, so I put peanut butter on a piece of bread and put some hydrogen peroxide on it. He gulped it down in a quarter of a second and I sent him out in the yard. About 45 seconds later he was barfing up his toenails.

I'd like to have their necks stretched out on a chopping block and be standing there with an ax. Or, where can we find a guillotine?

What went wrong with the daVinci?
HippieChick58 replies on Nov 21, 2018:
The manufacturer cut back on the training they provided. So docs are let loose way before they're really ready. The doctor in the documentary said he did not feel really proficient until he had done between 200 and 300 procedures. So, that makes me kinda nervous.

@Freedompath My stepmother was jealous, abusive, vindictive, petty, and mean, but as far as I know she was never criminal. Although today she'd likely have been arrested for child abuse, she did physically attack my younger sisters. My dad passed in 2007 or so, and after their house was cleaned out and the step was settled in a senior living facility I never had much more to do with her. My sister and I discuss her from time to time, and how she affected our lives. But we've learned, we've healed, and we've moved on. She is now just a bad memory.

January 13, 2021 My newest and smallest grandchild. She arrived 5 weeks early and is now 2.5 weeks old and is less than 7 pounds. I've never held such a small baby before. She is quite perfect and very amazing. I love being a Grammy.
