I can hear you screaming WHAT A WEEK I'M HAVING.... :barnie

You made me cry Quail, I know he means every word of this especially now when he is down. You are wonderful, keep that chin up.

When I had my first baby, the clinic told me to go down the hall and apply for WIC. I went there and the ladies were so nice. They explained about nutrition, breastfeeding, vaccinations and motor function in babies. That was in 1986 so I don't know about today's WIC program. I breastfed my...

I think that if you have a baby at home it is a more wonderful experience for everyone involved. I never got the chance to do that because no one else in the house supported the idea. I feel that giving birth is a natural experience and it would definately be more enjoyable if it could be kept...

Sounds like your granny is suffering some complicated stuff. I feel for you Lori, I know what it's like to watch someone with health problems and the docs don't care, just throw pills at them until the problem gets deadly. My aunt had these symptoms and we took her to the Mayo Clinic in...

I know what you mean. My kids are barely out of the house and they have big screen tv's new furniture, nice cars, the whole lot. They are also living in low income housing and getting food stamps! :barnie I never knew about this system when I was young but they have managed to get...

Great idea BeeKissed, I'm going to have to try it. I am so tired of winter I need another experiment to keep me going. I will let you know how it goes. :pop

This is so wonderful to hear. :ya I am very happy for you and yours. Things like what you did for your neighbor and what they did for you make the world a better place to be. Congratulations

I put an ad for canning material on our tradio program, (a radio program that you can ask or sell things) Low and behold my neighbor called me and said she had all the jars, cookers, rings etc and if I wanted to she would give me the jars and figure out a price on the pressure cookers. I...

All of the above and add some onion chunks :lol:

I think that any medication abuse is wrong. I have relatives who are addicted to pain pills and will cheat, lie and steal to get them. They have even gone so far as to come and "visit" my sick mother taking all her pain meds with them when they left. She was devastated for their betrayal...

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :weee :weee :weee :weee :weee

It's embarrassing to say but I used to take the kids' lights out of the sockets if I had to get after them to shut them off if they weren't using them. It happened a couple of times but now they thank me for getting after them on conserving energy. My daughter sounds just like me when it...

If you are heating with electric for your house you may be able to install a woodstove in the living area and heat the most lived in space duing the day with wood. I bought a brand new wood stove this summer and it paid for itself the first two months. I live in ND so we use a lot of wood to...

We do have people who have 49's after the pow wow, usually though it's only after the big pow wow in Bismarck. I have never been to one since I was old enough to say I wasn't going. My mom used to drag me to them. I have always been the kid with the stick up her butt. I don't like parties of...

It is so awful that this happened to your family. I hate when people aren't honest. I think that you need to forgive that builder. If you don't you will carry the burden and it can make you sick. Just let it go. I know that 20,000 is a lot of money but there isn't anything you can do about...

I am half white, 1/4 sioux and 1/4 chippewa. My husband is sioux and my children from another marriage are sioux. I look more white than native but my kids have their beautiful sioux genes. My grandkids are mostly sioux as well. My Husband's family practices the native traditional customs...

We do the pow wow circuit in ND, SD, MN and once every two years or so, Montana. My husband dances mens traditional and I do all his beadwork. We have had to ask one of my friends to do his shirts because I am too scared to make them. Don't know why. We are from Spirit Lake Nation near...

Sorry to hear about your dog. I have a six year old pomeranian female who is the light of my life. She is so loyal and loving. She is a great and gental dog so I can imagine what you are going through. :hugs Syvie has good advise and I would have never thought of that. Just know that we...
