:D--> Happy Birthday Hawk!

Agreed; Breath of Heaven beautiful song. I like the old traditional ones; silent night, jingle bells, I'll be home for christmas, etc. Also love to giggle with my daughter when we get to listen to "grandma got run over by a reindeer" and "I saw mama kissing santa clause" We wish you a merry christmas.

Hee Hee Hee :D-->

I thought that meant eeeek! sheesh you went from adding some interesting stuff on this thread to saying that. sigh. you've not read my stuff or you'd know me a little better.

Gee Valerie, how do you REALLY feel? :)--> I'm reminded of when we were expecting our second child. At our 3rd homebirth meeting with other parents, we discussed immunizations, circumcising (how is that spelled?), etc. Some parents were adamant about these issues, others were not. There will always be opinions, feelings, beliefs. Wonderful to have the freedom to make the choices.

Happy Happy ! uhum! we never get to see you in chat anymore. Remember your old friends? :)-->

:D--> Love that we can laugh about this ! Our mothers, definatly our grandmothers surely didn't discuss it. My take on it is that it's part of life and can be talked about and we might as well laugh about the funny parts; why not?

Excellent idea!

WHOA, noone wants to touch that one eh? ROFL I thought not. My apologies. ummmm lets see, what else? Irritability?

Vaginal Dryness -->

Hot flashes. suddenly and inexplicably

--> Where to start........

:D--> As a matter of fact, I am! Pithy: what a word. At first I thought of the way my 8 year old gets away with saying shi+ by holding her tongue and saying sit.

Happy Birthday! :)-->

Got conned into taking my son and his cousin to see this turkey and it just might be the absolutely worst movie I've ever seen in my life. Unbelievably awful =============================================== Did the kids like it?

Happy Birthday Oakmom. :)-->

Lindy, reading your story I laughed :D--> and cried :(--> and gasped a few times even. Thank you.

:)--> Tilda DAHLING! Hope your day is great! How's your family? What's new? Write home once in a while. Hope your birthday is wonderful!!

Vickles, take the CNN article to your local health department. This is a little piece of it. Read entire article on CNN.com _______________________________________________ Last week, Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson urged people to be vaccinated, even though the flu season has already begun. "There is plenty of vaccine to meet demand, so protect yourself and those who you love and go out and get vaccinated right now," Thompson said in a statement on the CDC Web site.

Got an appt Dec 9 to get shot. Better late than never I hope.

Excellent idea J! :)-->

You, my friend, are amazing.
