Instead of crutches, try a walker. You don't have to trapeze swing between it like crutches. And don't be embarrassed by asking to use the electric shopping cart at the store. But have someone with you because you have to get out of it to get something off a high shelf. And almost everything you want is on a high shelf. Even the produce trays are too high if you want to hunt for a good bunch of parsley without any brown leaves.

Woah I forgot to respond - thanks everyone for the well wishes, I hope it goes perfectly and if not, well, following yer advice I'll probably be too smashed to notice
![]() !After the wedding we're going directly on honeymoon to Norway (Bergen, to be precise), for ten days, so I probably won't be on the board for that time. When we get back I'll give ye all a debriefing, and maybe even rustle up a few pics ![]() !

Weather Balloons
Well, it's official, all objects that are considered to be "unidentified and flying" are now officially to be documented as "weather Balloons".

So anyway, my daughter, the crazy lunatic that she is, found that if she sticks "ear buds" for her iPod in her nose and opens her mouth, the sound projects out of her mouth!
She's always doing something to give me a good laugh!!! ![]() ![]() |

I was trying to post a thread regarding college degrees being a waste of time and money, and it wouldn't let me. So I will post it here instead. I found the article interesting!
A couple years ago one of our teachers asked me if I had a degree. I told him I didn't. Well, being the arrogant SOB that he is, he said that must be why I'm a secretary! I then told him that I might not have a degree, but I did serve in the AF for 20 years, and have more experience in how to deal with people than he does, and get two paychecks from the military, in addition to my secretary pay! He has been very cordial ever since! I'm not discouraging students from going to college and getting their degree, but it depends on what they plan on doing after college. Quite a few students opt to go to the community colleges here instead of universities! College Degrees A Waste Of Time, Money Last edited by Southie : 05-12-2008 at 12:23 PM. |
