JSM'S BEGGING FOR BANNING THREAD #4

[Fanny Mae]

Hi! Everybody! 

Just popped on for a minute to check on MAMA and all the ailing monkeys. We are cooking out today too, as an early celebration for my birthday. I am glad to hear tomorrow is International Angel Day.  A nice present for me!

I wish all you sick ones were well, and I send you my love and prayers.    I will still pray for Becky, LOVIN'S friend, and TRIMM'S neighbor friend.

Hubby and son bought me a beautiful lighted waterfall for my bedroom. I sometimes have trouble falling asleep at night, and they thought it would help. I will remember BEARLY'S suggestion to put a pillow up between hubby and me for my light in his face. Good idea.

ROLL TIDE! I hope everyone's teams won yesterday, and will win today. 

Is your birthday tomorrow?   

Yes, but more importantly, it is International Angel Day. I think that is cool. 

I wish I could capture BEARLY'S. But it saves as a bitmap on my IE8 and not a .gif.

I grilled this morning.I am cyber sending you monkeys some hot dogs,chicken and smoked sausage.   
Gotta go catch up on the threads real quick while granddaughter is doing homework.   

Sounds great    My daughter just called, Weezer was awesome, Travis Barker was with Blink 182 but they sucked and they left early    JSM thanks for asking, my stomach is iffy but my dad told me to go get some prune juice     

 

He is trying to kill you.

Please call the doctor and at least ask him about Donnatal.  It will calm your stomach and you, too.  The choice is yours, but I know just what you are feeling.  I no longer have the amount of flare ups I did when I was younger.  I have had IBS since I was 6!

Please get help!  I am only saying this because I care.  I may not be able to contribute here as much as I want to, but I still care about my friends here.

 

Rose, I still have the regular Donnatal pills in my purse for when my stomach starts, and they are cheap and generic (Belladonna and Phenobarbital).  Fifteen minutes after the first dose (and one flare up recently was a doozy) and your stomach stops that cramping feeling and you feel relaxed.  It is like a miracle.

I see they have extend tabs now, I don't know anything about them.

No thank-you, I have medication Robinol and it works most of the time, I get two bad bouts a year that gets out of control, I will talk to my doctor about donnatal. He was just talking about the prune juice because he really doesn't understand about irritable bowel, and he thought it would work.

Okay.  You were just scaring me with hospital talk and now your Dad is trying to off you.

    I'm speechless. How do people afford to eat? 

You get a northern living allowance from the gov't but is covers jack all.  You learn to be frugal and make as much as you can on your own and if you can not make it on your own you really have to decide if that is something important enough to buy or if you can do without it.   If you make your own and do need to buy or order something it can usually be used to make something else.  For example, my ketchup recipe uses brown sugar.  This can be used in everything from BBQ sauce to baking.  Right now is the time when I would have to place my order for a Turkey for thanksgiving.  If you did not order one, you did not have one.  We also had friends that would ship us stuff from "down south" which helped a lot as you only paid for the airfreight and not the markup on top of that. 

Look at the price of milk!

 

I guess people breast feed for a long time!

 

Powdered milk goes a long way and you kinda get used to it.

[Bearlyhere]

We appreciate you Bearly.   

  Yes we definitely appreciate Bearly!!

 

[joesamas mama]

    I'm speechless. How do people afford to eat? 

I want to know how much the price of ML is up there. 

There was no liquor store up there and to get in liquor it had to come in by air from Norman Wells, Iqaluit or Yellowknife.  You had to pay for a permit to import it first as well as import fees from the Nunavut Liquor commission.  That is why I started making my own wine.  A wine kit would make about 30 bottles.  There are many communities up there where it is prohibited to have alcohol because of dependency issues. 

There is a KFC and a Pizza Hut up there .

Now I know why you make your own wine. I should have known there would be a KFC and Pizza Hut. They are all over the world now!

[Northern Rose]

     And I just love the fall picture, oh how I wish I was in that pic 

It's beautiful.  You are walking into a mine field.  Is that your Canadian peace flag waving?

 

    Why mine field and peace flag?

[Bearlyhere]

Why does everything get turned around and is race related   

I am not sure, No Rosie.

I actually volunteer for an organization to help the poor an oppressed of Native and African American people.  I don't think the Obamas qualify as poor, but I still don't like this health care thing.  I want to cry when I see him talking about it.  Why?

We are talking about OUR government, who have not gotten the things they are in charge of straightened out yet, or most of all--funded!

I see this as a duplication of the failure they have in the education system, where we are talking about children with disabilities in the education system, we are talking about people with chronic illness on the health care reform.  They can preach all they want, but the truth is, there will not be enough money to fund it, and the people who have chronic illnesses(health) like those with disabilities (chronic or not) will get what money is left over--if any.

I have been through fight after fight in the education system where I was right--I always won the cases and it is not easy (80% of the time the parent loses).  It is very scary and I would not want anyone to have to go through it.  Fix and fund this system, then the court system--we can't afford to lock up prisoners so they go free. I can go on and on. 

Why take in more laundry when your own kids are running around with dirty clothes?

Regulation?  Absolutely.  Take over?  No.

 

Remember Adam's law--don't forget, they could not enact it because it was not fully funded.  Our education laws are not fully funded either--what other laws should we make and not have the funds to back them up?

Rant over.

 

Bearly, you are a Saint! And what worries me about this healthcare nonsense is the goverment will run it and the elderly and people with disabilities will be the last on the list to get care. That makes me very sad. JMO JSM

I am no Saint, but I know this is going to happen based upon their history.  That is a fact!  You can't argue with the facts (unless you are the defense lawyer of a guilty person)!

Picture of the waterfall, please?

(Geeze, I hope it does not make you have to keep getting up to go to the bathroom!)

Can you not save it as angel.gif?

[trimmonthelake]

I am by no means one of the smartest monkeys in the cage,but this healthcare chit isn't gonna work.

Health care and the race card.

I think you are a very smart monkey.

I agree whole heartedly! I still think you are a saint

After seeing the price of soda, something tells me way more than that 

[Tevye]

We are pajama pals!

 

NCIS?  I see you post it a lot.  The monkeys is the only TV I see!

 

What can I say, I love it when Gibbs cuffs someone upside the head, when Ziva kicks azz, and I just plain love Abby! Plus, it's educational (superglue and some kinda gas can lift fingerprints...hmmmm...wonder if the duct tape was tested that way?)

[Bearlyhere]

Talk to you later.  My son and I are going out to dinner then visiting  my parents.

 

[joesamas mama]

Have a good dinner and visit. I am glad you were here today Bearly.

I thought 4.99 for a 12 pack of diet coke was high.
