morning all

quick, name all the idol winners from past seasons

mac= u hit the pop star on the head, popularity can get them a shot; yet once discovered, true talent will shine on thru

im finally going to unload my old caddy today @ fire sale price, sick of paying insurance on it & it collecting dust = this could be the start of a beautiful new vacation fund

 

[Worfiedoodles]

I agree about AI - the talented ones go on, the others not so much. Chris Daughtry didn't win, and I think he's sold a few more cd's than Taylor Hicks (not that I'm picking on him).

Mac -- if I squeeze you in you'll have to find your own way home -- our suitcases will be filled with goodies on our way back!

It's warming up now...low to mid 80's but still a good chance of rain through next week.

That can't happen, you have to put a stop to it, as we will be arriving on Saturday for 8 days!!!! Help me out here

WELCOME BACK, MAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After this, try treating your yard every so often with Scott's Feed and pest control. It seems to keep the fleas/ticks out of our yard. And we live right beside the woods and a field. Bayer makes a pretty good product that you sprinkle around the perimeter, too. Both are evil (non-green) products, but I hate critters in the house.

Good luck.

And the older I get, the more a 1-bedroom with no yard is looking very purty to me. Why do men think you need large yards? It's not like they're the ones taking care of it?

Thanks for the suggestions. As for the big yard, we both really wanted it. Brent for the privacy, me so the dogs have a lot of room to run in a safely enclosed space. Needless to say, we don't care enough to do much landscaping or the big yard WOULD be a big bother.

All the fleas seem to be gone!
If we see any after the next two 10 day life cycles, we need to treat again. The hatching fleas were treated with a growth regulator, so they hatch without a mouth and can't feed. DIE, BOOGERS, DIE!!!!!!!!!

I was not hurt during my mugging. ... Later that day I got a call from a nice hispanic lady who didn't speak English. Luckily someone in my office does. She found my purse in a shopping mall about 15 minutes away from the courthouse. The $ was gone, but my pda and driver's license were still there. Luckily I didn't have anything else, especially credit cards, in there. I count myself lucky that I wasn't hurt, and that a nice lady found my purse and was thoughtful enough to call me.

Whose dealing?

Glad that it all worked out as well as it did. I need to remember to take my one and only credit card out of my wallet.... We've never used it and don't plan to, so I don't know why it's in there at all. Nice reminder that while there are jerks like the mugger, there are really nice people like the Latino lady and all the Homies here. Glad you're okay!

lunch break and after noon breaks are over homies.



now if you all come running here to post tonight, i will be absent.
my american idol finale is on tonight and it will be a show that lasts more than 2 hours.


just letting you know ahead of time i have "priorities" with the tube tonight...

DH and I have one or two "priorities" like that. Anybody else looking forward to So You Think You Can Dance?

Mac, I think you'll like the Star Trek movie. They were true to the characters, good story, and it had a lot of great action and fun one-liners. We really liked it!

3 hours into my garage sale and I have made almost $200!!!!



Oh did I mention I was having a garage sale this weekend??

i'll stop the rain for you mike.

Thanks Mac!!! You're A-OK in my book! It's raining in Georgia now, we were afraid it was going to wash out my nephew's graduation last night, but after a brief 10 minute shower, it stopped for the rest of the night, and it was a great ceremony. His school is HUGE, the graduating class had over 800 kids, there are 5000 in the school, I've never seen such a big High School campus!!!

I got something to ask here from parents of teenagers.
I got a phone call today from Joyce saying that DD-18 left for West Palm Beach for the weekend with her cousin who is 19.I called her on the cell and asked why.She told me none of your buisness,I'm 18 and can do what I want!!I got so d**** mad but held back.I tryed to tell her you live in my house,your car is in our name,we pay your insuarence and cell phone bill..She said oh well see you Monday,nothing you say to me is gonna make me turn around!!I said OK come Monday S^*# gonna change..
This girl dont even know how to check the oil in the car much less change a tire..
She is a very book smart (Young Adult),but has no street smarts at all.This is what got me scared.
I'm as is Joyce are at our wits end what to do with her!!

What would you do??

I wouldnt bring this up unless I trusted everyones opinion on here..

i've heard that line before, i'm 18 and can do what i want.

first thing you can do is stop paying for the cell phone.
i know she is going to school so she needs the car.
if the only way she will finish school is by driving, then stop paying for the cell.

it is not a necessity.
she can get a part time job to pay that bill.

once she gets a part time job, start charging her rent.
if she says she is 18 and can do what she wants, then she is old enough to pay for the room and board.

many young people think once they are 18 they are allowed to do whatever they want. until they become more responsible and cover their own personal needs, would i not give them anymore money to cover the 'fun' things in life.

kids that age aren't interested in learning how to take care of themselves.
most usually start to do better when they are the ones that have to pay bills.
then they realize things in life aren't free.


i know this is tough for youse guys.
hang in there and decide together what you will do and then stick to it.

i suggest the cell phone is something she would need to pay for herself.
