I just got engaged on christmas day. I know what needs done but i dont know where i should start or how the "order of operations" should go.

i was looking at pictures on the web site www.peopleofwalmart.com. there are several pictures of parents with their children on harnesses. the comments go both ways on why or why not its appropriate. i just wanted to see what you all thought. il give my personal opinion later.

this is the 9th day of me being sick. it started with a severe headache. the next day i was extremely stuffed up and had a very bad cough. there have been no changes in my condition until 2 nights ago at work the left side of my face/jaw became very swollen and painful. last night i took 1 800mg ibuprofen for the pain and swelling. today my jaw is still swelled and slightly painful. i am still stuffed up and have a bad cough that when it acts up i cough very badly for at least 5 minuets. i have tried a number of otc cough and cold medicines and nothing seems to help. alot of people at work have been sick but theres only lasted a few days and medicine helped them. im not that concerned other than its an annyance and im sick of being sick.

my 2 year old female dog had an "encounter" with our male dog on december 27th. the vet told us that male dogs cannot get a female pregnant until they are at least 8 months old and he is only 8 months old. shes been sick off and on for 4 days but only in the morning. she hasnt gotten into anything that we know of and hasnt eaten anything bad or different from the other dogs. shel drink water and eat some.

its 12 09am on january 1st 2009

what are everyones wishes for the year

have a good year everyone

my bf was boiling water 3 nights ago and spilled some on his foot and burned himself. it didnt really bother him until the next day after we did a few hours of grocery shopping. now his foot almost up to his knee is all red and very swollen. the burn itself also looks very infected. our friend who is a cna cleaned it with peroxide last night and put a baking soda paste on it. we tried to talk him into going to the er last night but he wouldnt go. i know from being a pca and seeing skin problems all the time that its something that needs treated with medication. he wont let me do anything to it except for dump peroxide on it every once in a while. hes been taking old antibiotics that he kept from when he had a toothache which he says hes helping. hes also been taking extra stregnth tylenol because he cant take ibprophen. i just need ideas on other things i can do to treat it at home or if i should just make him go to the er. hes been keeping it up some but hes also been trying to walk on it which i told him not to but he wont listen to me about that either. the burn is round and about the size of two 50c pieces put side by side.

why did this have to happen to you

you were so sweet and innoscent

you never did wrong

you touched everyones hearts since day one

i just wish there was something we could have done

to keep you longer in this world

life is so unfair at times

and no one understands

why bad things happen to good people

and why life is so short

why do the people we love

have to be taken away from us

before we are ready to let go

but always remember

that we will always love you

and you will always be with us

in our hearts

and you will always be missed

and every time

we think of you

you will always be rememberd

as a very special person

with a heart of gold

and a smile that could light up a room

and now you are at rest

and free from pain

and some day we will meet again

with open arms we will be reunited

but until then

we will cry for you

as we remember you

and as we learn to let go

but we will never forget you

and we will always love you

im a 23 year old female and i have severe heartburn pretty much every day. no matter what i eat i get it. ive tried drinking milk and it doesnt help. ive tried tums and rolaids and it doesnt help. i drink water and it doesnt help. i dont eat spicy foods. i smoke but it doesnt make it better or worse. i know for sure im not pregnant. some times it gets so severe that it almost makes me throw up. i have a family history of gastrointestinal problems so that may be it but i still shouldnt be getting it every time i eat. i started putting sugar in tomato sauce when i eat spaghetti and it helps some but not alot. is there anything i can take to prevent it or treat it fast. also any ideas on whats causing this would be appreciated too.

i really need your guy's help. i think that my mom is bulimic. for the past two years my mom has been making healthy food choices and exercising to loose weight. she was very healthy and lost alot of weight. over the past few months though people who haven't seen her for a while thinks she looks sick. on thanksgiving we had plans to have it at my grandmothers. my mom called a day or two before and said that her and my dad weren't coming over and for me and my bf to have dinner at my grandmothers without them. me and my bf both questioned her on it and she wouldn't give us a straight answer she said "its just easier". then a few days later she said her and my dad and brother had thanksgiving together and she ate a bunch of food and got sick(which isn't like her because she usually eats small meals not alot at one time). then last night online i was talking to her and she said she seen on tv they were selling six pounds of chocolate and she would love to have it and eat it all at once and get sick. this isn't like her at all either because she stays away from sweet stuff. i know this isn't the place to go for medical advice but i just want every ones opinion on it and to see if i should approach her on it or am i just paranoid. thanks a million.

how do i avoid being the "middle man" at work. i love all my coworkers to death but anytime one of them screws up, another one comes to me to complain. sometimes i find it really hard to take sides. il tell them if i think they are right to complain but i dont want to tell them if i think they are wrong. like i said i hate taking sides when im friends with everyone i work with. aparently im a good listener if they all bring their problems to me and im not the boss just a fellow coworker.

the past few weeks i have been having alot of trouble sleeping. i work until midnight every night and it takes me a few hours to wind down. lately though i havent been able to get to sleep until around 5 or 6 in the morning and when i have to get up and go to work at 4 i am exhausted. i tried tylenol pm but it stuck with me for too long and i was still exhausted. a girl at work suggested that i drink a beer to try and relax me but im not really that much of a drinker anymore. she also suggested that i take a regular tylenol around 9 or 10 but it doesnt work either. im 22 and i work in a personal care home. i would just really like to be able to sleep at night and not be exhausted at work.

me and my bf need to know how to handle this situation. a couple months ago we needed to pay a bill and a friend offered to put the money in their bank account and write a check out. we decided that would be a good idea because it would save us on paying the money order fee and our income is very limited right now. a week or so later we got a notice that the checking account was over drawn and we were getting charged over twice the amount of our regular bill to pay the returned check fee and everything else. the person who obviously didnt help us out hasnt offerd to pay the returned check fee or anything. we got another notice that our bill went up again and we really cant afford to pay the extra fees and everything because we have to budget all our money out. i need to know what we should do in this situation and wether the person who wrote the bad check should have to pay some of the fee or not.

what is the name for the disorder where you want to cut yourself to feel better and how do you control these feelings.

i just dont know what to do anymore. me and my other half were doing fine up until a few months ago then everything started going downhill. he will NOT sleep with me anymore. he says our bed hurts his back too much but it never botherd him the first 6 months that we had it. he has no time for me anymore but any time his ex asks him to go do something with her hel go with her. every time i ask him to go do something with me he either tells me hes busy ( he hasnt worked for over a month) or hes too tired. he conveniently sleeps while im home and then when i go to work he stays up and then when i get home hes wide awake and i have to fight to stay awake to talk to him because im so tired from working. the worst part is ever since we been together hes told me he loved me and now he wont tell me anymore. every time i say it to him he tells me " yah whatever" or "thats so overrated". its really hurting my feelings. ive talked to a few friends about it but i wanted to see what yallz thought.

Best Prayer I Have Heard In A Long Time.

Heavenly Father, Help us remember that the jerk who cut us off in

traffic last night is a single mother who worked nine hours that day and

is rushing home to cook dinner, help with homework, do the laundry and

spend a few precious moments with her children.

Help us to remember that the pierced, tattooed, disinterested young man

who can't make change correctly is a worried 19-year-old college

student , balancing his apprehension over final exams with his fear of

not getting his student loans for next semester.

Remind us, Lord, that the scary looking bum, begging for money in the

same spot every day (who really ought to get a job!) is a slave to

addictions that we can only imagine in our worst nightmares.

Help us to remember that the old couple walking annoyingly slow through

the store aisles and blocking our shopping progress are savoring this

moment , knowing that, based on the biopsy report she got back last week,

this will be the last year that they go shopping together.

Heavenly Father, remind us each day that, of all the gifts you give us,

the greatest gift is love. It is not enough to share that love with

those we hold dear. Open our hearts not to just thos! e who are close to

us , but to all humanity. Let us be slow to judge and quick to forgive,

show patience, empathy and love.

someone told me that the governer is thinkin about puttin a $14 tax on all cigarette cartons on top of the tax that is already on them. how do you feel about that and what are your states current cigarette taxes? ours are 6% in pa

i work at a convenience store where i have been for the past 9 months. when i first started, i worked 2 afternoons and 2 midnights a week. now that i am full time i work mostly afternoons. i folunteered to work a few midnights while the regular midnight guy is on vacation. all my manager told me was that the head whoever doesnt want females working midnights because they are afraid of "something bad" happening. i feel that if they are really worried about safety that they would have 2 people working on a shift. does anyone feel the same way i do. why or why not.

i have a problem with a co worker. actually he is the assistant manager at the store i work at. he is always fighting with me about stupid stuff. he is always indirectly accusing me when stuff goes wrong. he makes things out to be alot worse than they actually are. he also yells and argues with me infront of other customers and my hunny wether im working or not. i have said some things to the manager and all she says is " thats just how he is so deal with it". im really tired of it and i am about ready to quit because of the way he makes me feel. i am the only female employee there besides the manager so i dont know if that makes a difference or not. i have been there almost 9 months and i usually am good at what i do but when he has one of his fits on my performance goes down hill. i just need some suggestions on how to handle the situation. sorry if my spelling is not great but i just got done working and im tired.
