The green colored rubbing alcohol, both on the insides of shoes and on feet if necessary. If it can sweeten my male cousins, it can handle anything. :)

I would be freaked out as well. I understand your predicament. Remember in Kinder we could march in and take control of any situation? And now we have to stand back at times lest we embarrass our favorite people. The school should have zero tolerance for this. Is there a trusted teacher you could talk with? …

My mom was in the hospital for two weeks with pneumonia. If I wasn't by her side, I was taking care of my three children. It was so exhausting and I feel for you. I truly believe you'll start feeling better when your mom is home and settled in. As she gets her strength back and starts returning to normal activity,…

I think give yourself a chance to level out. When you increase activity like that, your muscles will hold water and make you think you're gaining. Happens every time. Keep doing what you're doing and you'll start seeing the results you're looking for.

I'm repulsed by it, myself. I can't imagine looking at your breasts thinking, "Daddy does great work." Not to mention the 1000 other levels of wrong this is.

Yes, yes, yes! How many times until it sinks in? I heard a snippet on the radio last night, "The mother thought the (loaded) gun was out of the child's reach." REALLY??

Totally off-topic, but you just reminded me of the time I upset my SIL by daring to become pregnant at the same time she was. Good times.

When I took Zoloft, I had absolutely no side effects. Not a one, none. All that happened was that I leveled out to the point I remembered what normal felt like. It's like, "Oh, wow. I forgot how it feels to be calm and myself again." I hope you have the same experience!

I have a herniated disk and it does cause pain. On a daily basis, I have trigger points...knots of pain right at my shoulder blade (though the origin is around C6). I'm so used to the pain that it's just part of me. Acupuncture works well, as does heat. One day I'll have surgery, but not until I have tingling or…

Thank you! My husband never watches tv, but wants to watch drag racing. I always forget about live streams; this is great.

Years and years ago (and only ONCE!), my husband put his toenail clippings in a nearby Fresca can. My Fresca. The rest, I'm still too traumatized to repeat. Guuuuhhhh.

I had two inductions, no problems at all. It's much more relaxed than you'd think, a lot of waiting. A great thing is no having to go home because it was false labor. You know you're leaving with a baby and that really does pump up the adrenaline. Oh, and don't be worried about pushing. It's a relief to push and…

Mine ruptured but I had no idea. I walked around for two days feeling like I had a gas cramp that mainly hurt when I pulled my feet up onto the bed or couch. The third day, my fever shot up. By the end of that day (because hello let's do a billion tests all day) I was throwing up at the ER. Then, sweet, sweet…

I just remembered... Tracy did a video demo of The Shenis on Jez. Wow, that's gotta be 4-5 years ago. Good times.

Insider bits are my favorite. Especially when they confirm a tool is a tool. Thanks!

We were close and I thought of your numbers, too! I was trying to PM you but the page isn't loading. If it does I will so I can rant in private. :) (Not about you, obvs!)

"But the pop culture/NFL mix was pretty painful from what I saw."

Mine is Giants, 28-24, Chritter. You can't just take my numbers and subtract one. xo

The last time someone posted an extremely personal question on my FB page, I deleted the entire post. They never asked about it again. But a simple 'no' is completely in order.

I've been so mad all day because I heard some radio hack say he'd like to see all PP shut down. I'm thinking REALLY? And that will, what...help prevent all the abortions you hate so much? People need to realize that 1. Abortion is legal and needed, and 2. PP provides so much more than that procedure. I only wish…
