Don't put me in the same box as VPW I have always tried to be nice to others and I'm not a pervert, but alot of what he taught even if plagurized was right on. I'm not a big fan of his but he wasn't always right or wrong just like the rest of us. Let he who Cast the first stone. And BTW I am not one of those Weirwille-iets either. He will have to answer to God one day same as everyone, no one is all bad or all good.

Raf, did you get Stanley yet? you should have it by now.

Thanks Shaz, I do have some of the symptoms of Lymes but they are also symptoms of my fibromyalgia and arthris so I will talk to my doctor about it. Do you know any natural meds for pain? I'm alsmost always in pain that leaves me homebound and bedridden and I do want to get off the vicodan and other pain meds cuz I'm afraid of getting addicted.

After having so much trouble getting Michael to finish his paper pushing I had a friend of mine who does evaluations on how children work best she discovered that Michael is what she called a vocal learner rather than a paper pusher (he hated writing and had trouble putting things on paper but if allowed to vocalize his work instead of all that writing he was very smart but if he had to write things down he didn't do well. He had trouble even doing his work nevermind finishing it.

He was then tested at school at my request and alot of bit*hing I finally got them to do it and they were amazed at how smart he was when allowed to vocalize his work. BUT according to them "they don't do things that way" even if it helps the child so he was caught between a rock and a hard place. In the 5th grade we put him in a wonderful Baptist private school that allowed him to vocalize and and his grades went way up. Unfortunatley after 2 years we found that we could no longer afford to pay them anymore so had to put him back in the public schools and the junior high he went to to was right in the middle of a real bad area and he went downhill from there until as I said before he quit going to school, and now after getting his GED he is graduating from college tomorrow and boy are we proud of him.

I guess I know what CW is talking about when she said kids have different ways of learning. He is now a computor architeck and draftsman and already has a good paying job. something like $20-22 bucks an hour to start and is in the process of buying a home and planning his marriage.

Sometimes we just have to let them learn in thier own way even tho we may not like it, it work for him and his older brother John. Love ya Abi and it sounds like you got a good handle on it.

Thanks Shaz for the info. I am hopelessly ignorant when it comes to things natural lol thats why I need help. Whats lymes deasese? I heard of it but don't know what it is or what causes it or what the symtoms are. But I really would like to read that book cuz I don't trust the drug industry any more then I trust our government. lol They're both polecats and warthogs IMHO. LOL

Way to go Exxie, I used to do the same thing with my son's teachers too. On the other hand my oldest daughter was an over achiever and I had such fun listening to her teachers brag about her. She graduated in the top 1% of the country and who's who of American High School Students. And know is a fine P.A specializing in cardio-vascular surgery. Know I get my Stitches for free lol. Get it Psalmie?

WOW this is a great thread!!! I'm one of those women who is totally disorgannized when it comes to cleaning, I mess up one room cleaning another LOL but true I didn't realize there was a differance between cleaning and organizing so I try to do both at once and you don't wanta know the outcome trust me on this.

But I really got some good tips and will try them all. Hopefully not all at once.

I do have one good idea that I've been doing for years. I buy my kitty's dry food in one a those big plastic containers with a wide opening, throw the lid away and put my plastic grocery bags in it. It will hold at least a hundred bags which I used for small trash cans or to carry around with me while cleaning to put trash in or whatever but no wet stuff. I also use the grocery bags to put aluminum cans in then stuff them all in the big yard bags til I go to the recycling place.

Hi Abi, I had 2 of them both boys one was bored to death with kindergarten and the other one in his own little dreamworld.

I didn't think they would ever get thru school period and I was right they both quit in high school, but went back and got thier GED's and one just graduated from college ( graduation this Thursday) yyyyyeeeeeeeehhaaaa and the other one just got his general contrators licsence so don't worry about your wee one too soon just enjoy the heck out of him and encourage him gently in the right direction and for God's sake don't let the school pressure you to put him on meds like they did me, it did more harm then good.

He sounds like a little charmer too me like my son's were until the school psyciatrist made me put them on Ritalin, that's what screwed them up.

also they bothe graduated from college with honors.

:D--> Hey Herbiejuan and Masterherbalist and anyone else into natural healing I'm really interested in natural healing especially in the natural pain dept. I'm sick of taking painpills and want to find out about natural meds. for arthritis and fibromyalgia pain. And has anyone heard of a book called something like "What the drug companies don't want you to know about natural drugs or healing?" I think thats the title. I saw it on TV and want to get it. Its only onsale online but I can't find it. Anyone? :P--> "Also he talked about healing acid reflux desease"

In my area So. Ca. most churches accept anyone that wants to join. The church I go to occasionally has every race you can imagine and they all get along fine. They love each other and respect other custums Its a very large non-denomontional church with thousands of members, I don't know about the rest of the state but here in Los Angeles County thats the way it is.

River Pheonix is a classic

I think parents who give thier child embarrassing names should spend the reat of thier lives with the names ugly and butthead.

I would hate to see us humans trash the moon like we have here on earth. And there's no air on the moon. Would we er not me but them you know who them is have to wear those big heavey suits all the time or do they think they can transport air?

Raf, Flat is on his way to you as we speak. I sure hope its warm in Florida cuz Flat loves the warmth and didn't really want to leave us, but I told him that Fl. is sunny too.

A friend of mine just told me today that Bush is going to bring back the draft. Does anyone know if this is true or a rumor to scare the heck out of me cuz I got 2 son's of drafting age and I don't want them to go to Iraq too many of our boys are getting killed over there in that God forsaken unholy war that seems to be turning into another Veitnam, I don't beleive we belong there anymore. Bush got what he wanted Saddam! So I think we should get our boys and girls back home. I think Bush is a warmonger. :(--> -->

:)--> :)--> :D--> :D--> :D--> :D-->Sorry to take so long to let all GS'er know that his Royal Flatness hath arrived in sunny California on NOVEMBER 19 (my oldest daughter's Birthday) eeeyyyhhaa -->woo woo. I would have posted before this but had to have another epidural 5 needles this time instead of 1 which knocked the $hit out of me and been bedriddan since that day, but this is the first time I've been able to get up at 4:am to boot and the pain has lessoned enought for me to sit up, so I am!

Anyway Stanley just loves Calif. He said it was nice to be warm again and would like to stay and have Thanksgiving with our family, Then I shall send him on to Florida to meet Raf.

He's having the time of his life traveling al over the place and say's thank you to everyone he has visited. ;)-->

I try never to look for cobwebs anymore they never hurt anyone and at christmas time you can spray them with colored "dust" and they look beautiful.

I never say renew your mind and will smack anyone who tells me to.

I know I'm in for it when someome especially leadership says to me "How would you like to get blessed?" I just know that means giving something of mine that I want or be cleaning some lazy leaders house (thats why thier homes are so clean cuz they get us to do the work) instead of taking care of our house we do thiers and then get yelled at for being a slob. I can stay up late at night now and sleep late if I want w/o guilt.

I could go on and on but don't want to bore you to tears as many leaders have in thier teachings BOOORRRINGGG

Hi my dear friends. I saw the doctor today and I will have to go back in hospital for anothr epidural. But things are looking real good so far, thank you so much for your prayers.

Love to all, Dovey
