Another grandson of mine was a sentence finisher--and 99.9% of the time, he finished my sentence WRONG! Nothing I did cured him--I got rid of that problem after he moved across town and started school and I didn't have to babysit him anymore.

Gotta go get ready for my appointment. Will catch you all later tonight.
I think I would got either "silent treatment" on him or "sign language only", if he's going to insist on finishing your sentences then he might as well learn a new language in the process. My oldest and I speak just enough sign language to argue across a room full of people. Once we attracted the attention of a couple of deaf ladies, it was hilarious, because we had no idea what they were saying after the first 10 signs or so. I finally had to sign, "I'm not deaf, please talk". Then they thought my DD was deaf.

Nope, 5-6 kids running through here every day takes a tole on the housework rather quickly. Ugh.

Apparently it isn't just men! Between me and a saleswoman and my dock worker we had a nice little joke about his initials today which happen to be "DP"

Be very glad your first name is April and not Dolores.

I think she means a reference to a Seinfeld joke about men remembering women's names by rhyming them with a particular body part.

Hiya everyone im not the best when it comes to computers so my layout and replies arent the greatest.
Rosemary Conley is a diet and fitness expert who has just celebrated 40 years in the business. Her diet involves consuming 1200 first 2 weeks, 1400 next 2 weeks and then after that im given a specific calorie allowance. The general rule is 5% fat or lower in everything i eat. As well as being weighed at the group i also have a 45 exercise class. Its the only weightloss club that involves an exercise session. Previously i lost 3 and a half stone with weightwatchers but even though it did the job it didnt suit me as well as this one. The weight is coming off better and i am alot happier the way it teaches me to have a healthy lifestyle. Because of the extra exercise im doing too i notice my body shape is much better too as the weight is falling off all over.
Generally my day is like this-
Breakfast- 200cals
Power Snack- 50 cals
Lunch- 300 cals
Power Snack- 50 cals
Dinner- 300 cals
Dessert- 100 cals (optional)
High Fat treat- 100cals (optional)
Milk/calcium allowance- 200cals

Now ive got the 1st week over im finding it a natural decision again to eat better and make healthier choices.
Hope everyone is having a good day??
Tracey xx

When the rain falls in my life it's like a flood. Mocha had to be out down today many of you may recall he had a stroke before Christmas well he had a second one last night and we had to make the decision that was best for him, he was thirteen and for a pure bred chocolate lab that's a pretty long life he was a great dog.

Zyxst and Amy, didn't Jerry guess "Mulva" to rhyme with the female body part?
