ptty55 Hi PeacefulWmn...my concern comes when I read about the rapid mutations of H1N1. No single vaccine can address an on-going mutating virus. At this moment, in Canada, we have a Turkey farm in quarantine. They have determined that the turkeys are infected with...

ptty55 I am afraid to allow my kids to take the H1N1 shot. It seems to be rushed onto the market, without properly testing it for side effects. I am a little concerned that is just a government placebo, to keep the masses less excitable if this flu reaches epidemic...

Hi mylotters! I heard so many people complaining about their jobs. They keep on telling their friends and family that if it is only not needed and if they have a choice they will surely quit their jobs. Do you find yourself in...

ptty55 Thanks for your kind interest. I have settled into my new job. My boss is a little bit ditzy, but she is likeable and so far everything is going just fine. I am getting more hours now than I used to, so that is a bonus. I will keep you posted with my progress....

ptty55 Hi KhoiPhish...I enjoy a good Psycological horror too. I like the gory stuff to be left to my vivid imagination. If I had my choice, I would always watch a good murder mystery.

ptty55 Thanks for your kind words of encouragement. Yes, there have been some policy changes and it does seem strange not to have my old co-workers around. I am just taking things one day at a time. I am just very thankful to have a job in this tough economy.

ptty55 I could live without coffee, but those around me might not! I am a serious coffee drinker. I do have my daily limit though. If I drink more than four in an 8 hour cycle, I will start to fell ill.

ptty55 Hi bookreadermom. I love to be home on stormy winter days. There is something comforting sitting all toasty warm inside, watching the snow swirl around outside. If I had my wish, I would never have to venture off to work or run errands. I would love to just...

ptty55 Thanks for taking down memory lane PeacefulWmn9. I loved Nancy Drew books. I also enjoyed anything by Agatha Christie. I will always remember the Christmas I received The Lennon Sisters book. I think there was only one adventure in this series.

ptty55 You are so right mommaj...my stars are hinged on a bungee cord. They bounce up and down and out frequently. I am so tired of leaping articles. I think that the answer is to just write and forget about the money.

ptty55 It would be wonderful to be able to go back in time and relive or change a moment in our lives. As we get older, we (hopefully)get wiser. We could turn back the clock and apply that wisdom to a time in our life when we were young and foolish.
