At a show I worked at last night, one of the other usher's niece and nephews were there with their mother (who was not really visible compared to the kids). They used their aunt's position there as an excuse to run wild. As in,...

beeeckie Exactly. Just because it's a kid-friendly show or venue (like a toy store for example) doesn't mean you get to let the kids run like crazy! Personally I worry for the kids' safety. When I was 17 I worked in a toy store and after a woman had left her kids to...

We moved into our house a little over a year ago, and made a conscious decision to not subscribe to cable. Netflix is our main source of television, as well as whatever comes in on the antenna. Between those and our busy...

beeeckie That's a good idea. Cable should never be an obligation, in my opinion! It's an optional bill, like credit cards.

beeeckie Definitely! and all new TVs are HD, you only need a cheap antenna which doesn't even have to be unsightly :)

beeeckie bunny cuddles are the best! It's also great when they relax and flop onto their side or back. :)

beeeckie I agree - the law should be inflexible, the punishment should be -- DEPENDING on the case.

For most of my life, I have been a voracious and habitual soda drinker. The consumption steadily increased during my adulthood and I've tried to quit off and on for a number of years. Often I've felt similar to smokers (though I...

beeeckie Good luck to you! I sort of think the only reason I stopped as I said was getting sick. Like that quit smoking trick when people are made to smoke an entire pack all at once to put them off of it.

beeeckie so far I have mostly replaced it with water and tea, which is out of character because a large appeal of soda (to me) is the fizzy bubbles. I have left Sprite Zero as an option if I'm out and about, but only as a treat, and I'm craving the bubbles less and...

beeeckie Thanks for your responses! In brief, I got my left ovary removed this past October, 3 months ago. Turns out there was a large endometrioma inside it, which had been there for who knows how long. Lucky for me, removing the ovary removed has ended virtually...

beeeckie It's been easier to look at the physical recovery time in parts -- first I couldn't use a pillow, then I could, then I could sit up for longer periods, etc. It's teaching me to be grateful for things I never thought about one bit.

beeeckie I'm sorry to hear about your friend, it sounds like he is a very strong person. There is nothing that can be done to undo the past, all that can be done is to live well from here on out.

beeeckie This is true, I actually hadn't considered the age thing. It does seem some people have an issue answering to people younger than them (understandably in some situations, but at work?). Two other supervisors are in their late 30s, and the other is just 21....
