  • Horse shipping from Mississippi to Connecticut?

    Anyone out there know any good shippers that could transport a small pony from Mississippi to Connecticut? I know plenty of local shippers but most I have talked to don't go that far away.

    Thanks!

  • Anyone out there familiar with PMDD?

    Wondering if anyone out there has any experience with this? I ask because I've noticed over the last year an increase in problems I have around "that time", and it seems like more than the standard PMS deal. This past week was the worst by far - I was horribly depressed, no sex drive, irrationally irritable and angry, so exhausted I was falling asleep the minute I laid down. Last night I couldn't sleep, tried to just lay down and relax and let sleep come to me and instead I found myself crying uncontrollably over NOTHING.

    I had a similar problem a few months ago, the same thing. It's like watching myself through a window - I know this is not me, I know I'm acting irrationally, and yet I just can't seem to stop myself, I have crying fits or get extremely angry. It's embarrasing - its just not me!

    And this always seems to happen around that time; the rest of the time I'm pretty normal. My boyfriend and roomate have confirmed that. I'm hesitant to look into medication just because my mother has a blod clotting disorder and has had clot problems in her legs before, and I'm in my mid-20s and don't want to start down that road.

    I had thought at first it was just stress - I work 50 hours a week and my boss is not the easiest person to deal with. But it seems the worst of it, give it a day or 4, and my cycle starts and I'm back to normal. This last time I thought I was just out of sorts because I had been sick with a respiratory infection for a week and a half prior, and was feeling pretty lousy.

    Mostly I'm just worried about things continuing to get out of hand. No job or social environment is a good place to have a mood instability, but I train horses and teach children's riding lessons for a living and I really don't want this to trickle down into my work.

  • Frequent Guest - how often is too much?

    So my roommate met who is now her "new love" 4 weeks ago. While I like this person, she keeps inviting them to stay overnight, and its getting a little stressful. The routine seems to be they both stay here two nights, take a night off, and then are together the next two nights, etc. What really irks me is they could just as easily stay at the other person's apartment - this person lives 15 minutes away! They have only not stayed here one night in this entire time.

    To add to it, since meeting this person my roomate has become very sloppy around the apartment - she took out the trash and did the dishes one time this month, both times I had to ask her twice to do so. She never cleans up the living room , bathroom, or kitchen, but whenever she has company, she always makes sure HER room is tidy. So I'm running around trying to keep tidy, and then when we have company, since my bedroom always comes last and I can't keep up on a 2 person mess by myself, I look like the slob. It doesn't help that aside from guessing routine, I rarely get a head's up when there's company coming over.

    I want to say something but my big hesitation is my boyfriend stays over usually 2-3 nights in a row as well. However he and I have been dating for almost a year, and I was living here with him coming over frequently before I asked this other girl to be my roommate (mostly just to cut the rent down and she was in a bind with nowhere to go at the time). I even talked to him and told him he needs to give me a head's up when he is coming over, to be polite to my new roommate.

    I have also explained to her that my boyfriend lives an hour and a half drive away. I work 6 days a week at 8am to 6pm so its not really possible for me to stay at his place unless its the night before my day off; his work is a lot more flexible. He also isn't over as frequently - he will come and stay for a few nights and then go back to his place for a week or so. He also as of late has been doing dishes and helping tidy up just because he's great like that and knows I'm getting really stressed about my sloppy, lovestruck roommate (she's 25, I think she'd be old enough to have a little more sense...)

    So do I have the right to say something? I just feel like when I invited my friend to live with me, I was asking for ONE roommate...not TWO. I know we're both adults and we both pay rent and should be able to live like adults without having to report to each other, but at the rate this new relationship is going I'm concerned if I don't speak up, soon I WILL have two roommates permanantly!
