Has any one else thought that it's about time Dunkin Donuts came up with a flat box to put donuts in. They lay flat and the frosting doesn't get all over the other ones. So much better than the old way of stacking them side by side. Does anyone have any other examples of "Why didn't they think of it sooner?" els

North America: Tonight, Advance Your Clocks 1 Hour
by RAYZORBLADE injust a reminder, in case you forget, or perhaps did not know, tonight, if you live in north america, you advance your clock: + 1 hour
so...you lose one hour sleep.
here, we change the clock at 3:00 a.m., but of course, change it maybe before you go to bed, or when you wake up tomorrow morning.

It doesn't bother me too much but my husband isn't happy. He has to be at work at 6 am and it was just getting so it was a little bit light when he drove to work. That little bit of light really raises his spirits. els

Phone call from my sister.
by els ini haven't been on here in quite a while so let me refresh your memories.
i have a son who is in the army reserves, he went to basic last summer but he's a senior in high school and has to do his individual training so he's not in iraq with his unit.
i haven't heard anything from my family since last july when i told them what he was doing.

Thank you all, I think I have finally gotten to the point where their s**t just makes me mad instead of making me sad and depressed. I am so proud of my son I could just burst. He would like to be over there but I have to admit I'm glad he's not. I just wish all of them could be safe. els

I haven't been on here in quite a while so let me refresh your memories. I have a son who is in the Army Reserves, he went to basic last summer but he's a senior in high school and has to do his individual training so he's not in Iraq with his unit. I haven't heard anything from my family since last July when I told them what he was doing. So my phone rang this morning and it was my sister who lives with my parents. She said, "Can I ask you just one question?" Sure. "Where is Sean?" I said, "He's in school" Where? "High school, in Fort Ann." She said, "So he's not over there?" Me, "No, he hasn't graduated highschool or finished his training so he can't go anywhere" Her, " Oh good, we were worried." Me, "Well you could have asked me that when the war started, actually if you hadn't stopped talking to me you would have known all along and nobody would have been worried." Her, "Well OK, We love you, you know." Me, "Yeah, unhuh. Bye." I suppose I was rude but I feel like they don't have the right to worry about him when they don't even talk to him or remember what grade he is in. He's mine and he doesn't need their kind of love. Neither do I. els

My mother had a stroke
by acsot inhaven't been on the forum much lately, been running back and forth to the hospital.
she's getting better now and will probably be able to regain use of her arm and leg, but it's been exhausting and nerve-wracking.
i was fortunately there when it happened so got her to the hospital right away.. anybody have experience with this type of thing?

acsot, I am so sorry to hear about your mom. I hope you are coping OK. Strokes are frightening because you don't know what the long-term effects are going to be. I hope that your mom has a full recovery. My mother-in-law had a series of mini strokes a few years ago. She recovered pretty well physically but it really affected her emotions. It has been hard on Dad because she doesn't want him to be away from her at all. She gets very disturbed if he's gone for more than an hour at a time. She gets weepy and then very angry if we try to distract her or tell her it's OK. I don't mean to scare you, with Mom it's hard to tell how much if the effect of the strokes and how much is because of her age, she'll be 91 this summer. I just think you should be aware that depression and emotional problems sometimes follow a stroke and they can be harder to deal with than the physical problems. Try to take care of yourself and line up the help you need. I'll be thinking of you. els

shunners in hospital
by ChrisVance inwhat noidea is going thru got me to thinking what i'd do if one of my family members who shuns me, that's most of them, were really sick and in the hospital.
several years ago my daughter was really sick and in the hospital.
i didn't go see her and i've often wondered whether i did the right thing.

For years now my family has been kind of ignoring me unless I take the initiative and get together with them. But everytime one of my parents is sick then they want me around, partly because I have a flexible work schedule and can provide rides to doctors, etc. It's really hard though because it's like they expect me to be able to turn my feelings on and off depending on whether they need me. Now I am being shunned and I don't know if they will call if something is wrong. It hurts to know that they might not but maybe it's better if they don't. els

Mr. Moe, I guess I was on the mark in how I interpreted my tiger. Maybe controlling it was a good thing, although deciding to let it loose could be good too.
I wonder if reading up on the meanings of things in your dreams could influence how you dream. If you know that a certain thing symbolizes a feeling or a part of your life, would your brain start to use symbolism more. I have read that if you have a recurring dream, that if you think about the outcome of that dream before you go to sleep, you can change it. And in changing the outcome of the dream you can change things in your life. Interesting idea anyway. els
