    Depression/Anxiety

    just want to mention, if you are ever prescribed xanax for anxiety, be VERY CAREFUL about taking it. I've seen a remarkable number of patients lately who have a really rough time stopping it, even after a just taking it for a short amount of time. They've been complaining of tremors as they...

    Nurse Scrups

    Suggestions from someone who wears scrubs almost every day: * get/make pants with at least part of the waistband elastic. Otherwise you'll have to keep re-tying them all day 'cause the ties loosen up & your pants almost fall down :/ * I like the tops that have the 2 pockets near the bottom...

    $20,000 on a pet?

    It really can get expensive to take care of your animals. I guess medical care is expensive for all family members be they human, furred or feathered. One of my grooming clients really scrapes by for income, but when it comes to medical care for her elderly mom and her two dogs ( whom she...

    Ladies! Cut your own hair?

    I'm with Wifezilla... I started cutting my own hair when I realized that I was making corrections for weeks after paying $20 to have a stylist do it. Figured what the heck, I can miss sections of hair myself for free! So what I do is, after washing my hair and combing it out, I lean way over...

    We can pick at our dump!!

    Oooh, great idea about the gutter/ Roman aquifer system. Believe I'll use that. I'm thinking of getting one of those huge plastic cube thingies, putting it uphill of the garden, then running hoses or gutters to the garden for watering. Cool!

    YAY! DH got a job!

    He's actually been working since October, but I didn't want to say anything until he got paid, which happened for the first time yesterday. I am sooooo thankful that he's got a real job for the first time in 8 years. He's been doing Real Estate since he got laid off twice in 2001, which has...

    Ice-school delay

    we had sleet here night before last, which froze all over the roads by time to leave work. We're talking Georgia, where this hardly ever happens. I would have made it home in my good ol' Pontiac Aztec, but for the car that slid to my side of the road as I was going uphill. Had to back down...
