  i have always been attracted to very confident and self-assured women.

  so sexy.

  example - a girl who may not look like a skinny stick model at the beach in a bikini and rocking it.

  both reopened mind and i are now in our early 60's and it seems our conversations lately have been on putting everything up for sale and buying a rv and travel until we can't anymore.

  it has been a dream of ours for along time to see all the site's in the u.s. and canada.

  we feel we could make money as we go by selling and teaching using herbs and gardening.

  If you can also do mechanical repairs that would be helpful. I would still keep $ 6000 to $8000 on hand for major repairs.

  We just put $2000 in our truck for a rear and an axle. Can't imagine the cost for a bigger vehicle. And, a blown engine would be astronomical.

  Not trying to rain on your parade, just doing the math. :)

  Just thinking that real estate generally appreciates in value and an RV starts depreciating as soon as you pull out of the dealer's lot.

  So, you would be selling an appreciating asset to buy one that depreciates and still gobbles lots of money in fuel and repair costs.

  I can't even imagine how much it would cost to fill up an RV. My husband's Dodge Ram costs $150 to fill up and he does that once a week. I jokingly asked him, "Do you realize that we are literally burning $600 a month?"

  i have suffered with menopausal symptoms for a few years now.

  hot flushes and facial sweating, the most noticeable to others.. a sister i knew used to laugh and pretty much, mock me.

  i used to say "you wait till you get them" , without being nasty.. i seriously hope she suffers.

  Your ovarian pain could be any number of things. If it happens in the middle of the month, you could just be ovulating. If it happens during your period, it could just be cramping in the general area. But, if it happens when you are late or just before your period, it could be an ovarian cyst.

  They don't do a lot for ovarian cysts, other than giving you a diagnosis and possibly putting you on birth control pills to stop ovulation completely.

  If they diagnose you with polycystic ovarian syndrome, they might choose to treat you with metformin, a diabetes drug, but you must meet other criteria like impaired glucose metabolism, weight gain, higher than normal testosterone levels, and infertility. It's really an endocrine disorder. I was diagnosed by a reproductive endocrinologist when I had difficulty getting pregnant.

  Btw, I'm not giving medical advice. This was just my experience. There may be other causes of ovarian pain.

  I've also had ruptured ovarian cysts. Been in bed for 3 days. They just let your body absorb the blood now. Very, very intensely painful.

  They treat it with metformin, a diabetes drug now. It seems it's an endocrine disorder that doesn't just stop at burst ovaries. It can cause pre diabetes and elevated blood lipids, as well as infertility. Those cysts are eggs that never release from the ovaries and form cysts. They are reconsidering the name polycystic ovarian syndrome because the effects are not just limited to ovarian cysts.

  Personally, they put me on metformin and I got pregnant the next month!

  yes, the jws continue to bleed their young ones, so far in my local kh 3 were dfd, one girl just turned 18 this month and packed her bags and said goodbye to the cult and her cultish parents, another young 18 year old man decided to have a non-jw girlfriend and decided to stop attending and is no longer a witness.

  they continue to leave and wt leaders dont give a damn.

  they dont do anything to help kids be successful and live a healthy life.. .

  The thing is, my cycle is just as regular as ever, it's just the second half is hell. Night sweats, irritability, insomnia. Then my Aunt Flo comes to visit and all those symptoms go away, but the cramping and excessive bleeding start.

  I get about one good week out of the month. I'm 42 and people say this lasts another 10 years!

  Oh, and jgnat, for $55, I'll just sleep in the buff. ;)

  I wouldn't call it rambling. I think it's delightful the way they riff off of each other. You can tell it is a close and loving relationship.

  I prefer to read my information, but for those who prefer watching (remember watching the nightly news on tv each night?), I think Mike and Kim are a good recommendation.

  I was also told that Black Cohosh wouldn't do much, so I've yet to try it.

  What I do is sleep on a towel. When I sweat through that, I throw it off the

  bed and get another. Sometimes I go through 3 towels a night.

  I'm still looking for the muscles in my cheeks. They must be there underneath the chub.

  I've heard you can work them out by eating...
