kristin said...: Sandy - that is a great story too, glad he is doing well and eating beets and pickles.

So very true HiT.; March 2, 2010 at 10:54 AM
Anonymous said...: Sandy- :-) That is such a nice story!

HiT- If I had to deal with JM, I'd need a combo of valium, Xanax, Prozac and any other AD/anxiolytic I might find!; March 2, 2010 at 10:56 AM
Anonymous said...: RIM, that is so neat about your mom. It's just awesome how things like that happen. It makes for great memories!; March 2, 2010 at 10:57 AM
Lindsay said...: Why did his post make me sad? I kind of feel bad. He must feel like a failure. His wife is gallavanting around getting all these strangers to kiss her feet and he has to play second fiddle all the time. He has a failed business. And he's lost 2 homes and a car. And the only time he's doing anything sorto of on his own or for himself is when she gives him permission/schedules his blog posts.

AP - I'm kind of brainwashed now. Lord, somebody help me.; March 2, 2010 at 10:58 AM
suz said...: Good morning all!
Nice to see Brats here last night, been wondering about her!
HiT, if I had to deal with JM, I think I would commit hari kari, after I was stoned of course! lol.
Morning Kristin, RiM, Corinne, Sandy, I am sure I missed some one :p; March 2, 2010 at 10:58 AM

Lindsay said...: Oh, and as a side note - I'm pretty sure I would have just saved that conversation for my therapist, and not posted it in the blog world, but whatevs.; March 2, 2010 at 11:00 AM

HiT- That interview was pathetic BUT at least JM was forced to admit that she makes a.lot. of money through blogging.; March 2, 2010 at 11:04 AM
Lindsay said...: Okay, I'm off to get the kids to school and go to yoga. I'll check in with you guys later!; March 2, 2010 at 11:04 AM
Robin in Montana said...: :::slaps Lindsay and myself upside the head:::

Sandy -- Did you pickle the beets, or just can them plain? I want to plant a garden this year and I definitely want to can again this year. Will probably just buy tomatoes and cukes, though. I hope I can find the recipe I used for the pickles, but the ticket to keeping them crisp (since I am a chicken and hot water bath canned them, even though the old timers say you can just cold seal pickles)IMO was that they sat totally submerged in ice for something like 12 hours before I canned them. They were *so good! I'd like to try pickling asparagrus and green beans, too.; March 2, 2010 at 11:04 AM
Angie said...: Hi everybody! It's good to see some old friends stopping by and the new faces here lately. To the newcomers, I'm normally friendlier, but right now I'm sick with a cold and am currently a big grumpy baby. I'm at work, but not getting anything done, so may give up and go home this afternoon.

Roger Ebert is going to be on Oprah today, for anyone interested. I love him. He's been through the wringer, health-wise, in the last few years. He's lost his voice, most of his jaw, his ability to eat. But he has a great mind and still writes wonderful movie reviews and his website is terrific. He's been out of the public eye for a few years, and today will be on Oprah.; March 2, 2010 at 11:06 AM
Robin in Montana said...: Hi SW! ::pats you on your grumpy little head::: I hope you feel better soon!

Did anyone watch the Bachelor? I haven't watched yet, but I gather that REality Steve was right on in his prediction. I just can't see that working, but ... to quote Lindsay ... whatevs.; March 2, 2010 at 11:09 AM

kristin said...: I am reading something that the Livesay's linked and this stuck out...actually still reading but oh, how true:

"In one striking passage, Mr. Stearns quotes the prophet Ezekiel as saying that the great sin of the people of Sodom wasn’t so much that they were promiscuous or gay as that they were “arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.” (Ezekiel 16:49.)"

Robin in Montana said...: Kristin - interesting.; March 2, 2010 at 11:13 AM
Anonymous said...: RIM, I pickled the beets. They are so good. I want so bad to get a pressure canner, especially for corn and green beans.

I too iced the pickles for a long time before I canned them. They did stay pretty crisp.; March 2, 2010 at 11:14 AM
My Sparkling Life said...: SW: Feel better soon! Sending some good vibes your way.; March 2, 2010 at 11:15 AM
kristin said...: Okay, sorry - I really like the Livesay's and what they stand for and what they are doing. I just wish I had the balls to do similar.

I watched the Bachelor and was sad but I don't think that Tenley was right for him either, too much sunshine.

I don't think it will work either. She is needy and will take all his money.; March 2, 2010 at 11:16 AM
kristin said...: Yes SW - feel better soon! I asked about you earlier :); March 2, 2010 at 11:17 AM
Robin in Montana said...: In the vein of interesting things online - I followed this link from somewhere. A woman who attended her 93-yo MIL's funeral and said the woman was buried with a fork in her hand. So very touching. (I must be PMSing because I could cry at the drop of a hat today.) This is what was on the remembrance cards at her service:

'When they bury me, I want my old Bible in one hand and a fork in the other.I have been thinking about all of the church dinners and banquets that I attended through the years, I couldn't begin to count them all. But one thing sticks in my mind. At those really nice get-togethers, when the meal was almost finished, a server or maybe the hostess would come by to collect the dirty dishes. I can hear the words now. Sometimes, at the best ones, somebody would lean over my shoulder and whisper, `You can keep your fork.' And do you know what that meant? Dessert was coming! "It didn't mean a cup of Jell-O or pudding or even a dish of ice cream. You don't need a fork for that. It meant the good stuff, like chocolate cake or cherry pie!

"When they told me I could keep my fork, I knew the best was yet to come! "That's exactly what I want people to talk about at my funeral. Oh, they can talk about all the good times we had together. That would be nice. But when they walk by my casket and look at my pretty lavender dress, I want them to turn to one another and say, `Why the fork?'

"This is what I want you to say. I want you to tell them that I kept my fork because the best is yet to come."; March 2, 2010 at 11:18 AM
My Sparkling Life said...: RiM: That story gave me goosebumps! I love it!; March 2, 2010 at 11:20 AM

I have no idea why I keep talking to you damn low lifes - I have 6 projects and one requires 15 submittals. YIKES.

I need to work!; March 2, 2010 at 11:20 AM
My Sparkling Life said...: Kristin: GO AWAY ;)
I'm having the same problem today. Lots to do but feel like hanging out with you slackers.; March 2, 2010 at 11:22 AM
kristin said...: Oh and on other news. Did you see JM's newest post. Real safe but I have a question. Why does Stellan have a "cord"? When he was at his last cardilogist appointment, I thought they said he was all good. I am confused.

Or am I missing something?; March 2, 2010 at 11:22 AM
My Sparkling Life said...: I'm confused too. I have no idea why.; March 2, 2010 at 11:25 AM
Robin in Montana said...: I loved that story, too. :*)

Sandy -- good grief. I just looked at pressure canners on Amazon. I didn't realize how expensive they are. I'm sure you can probably find one at a thrift store or garage sale or something, but I'd worry about the seal.; March 2, 2010 at 11:25 AM
Robin in Montana said...: I have no idea about the cord. I thought he was "healed" too. Cute picture even if it is totally staged.; March 2, 2010 at 11:27 AM
suz said...: RiM, I have never canned but would love it. I don't have anywhere to have a garden though. I guess I could buy stuff at the farmer's market, not sure if that defeats the purpose of canning and saving $$.; March 2, 2010 at 11:29 AM
Anonymous said...: One of my friends lives in Amish country and she said the Amish will can corn and green beans by doing the water bath. She said she's too afraid to and I agree. She's been canning all of her life.

The pressure canners are soo expensive. But I would worry about the seal too if I picked one up at a garage sale or somewhere like that.; March 2, 2010 at 11:29 AM
Anonymous said...: RiM- I love that story! So sweet :)

Kristin - No idea. I was gonna say maybe he had another routine Holter to make sure he was A-ok but Holter monitor cords are much more discreet.; March 2, 2010 at 11:29 AM
Angie said...: For the record, I've got over a week of JM "sobriety" and no matter how many of you join AP's Cult of Israel, I'm not breaking it! I don't care how small his dick is, I'm not going to read about it. And I don't care how many cords JM pulls out of her ass to try and revive her blog. I'm done with it. So there.; March 2, 2010 at 11:29 AM

Robin in Montana said...: Suz - The first year of canning is expensive, no matter what, just because of the cost of the jars and lids and rims. I'd think you'd be able to get produce pretty cheap there and it's a whole lot easier to do a huge bunch all at once than several little batches as things ripen, anyway. IMO. Here you can get a 25-pound bag of pickling cucumbers for something like $17 -- I did three bags and got some obscene number of quarts and half quarts. Without factoring in the cost of the jars, since you can re-use them, I probably still came out cheaper. Same with tomatoes -- I did five boxes (what, maybe 25 pounds? at around $20-$25/box) and had TONS of quarts and half quarts of tomatoes and we used every one of them. You can find jars and rings at garage sales and thrift stores for really cheap, though, and you have to sanitize any jar before you use it, anyway, so no biggie. I think I have around 20 cases of quart jars now and maybe 10 or 15 of half quarts.

Sandy - My mom always did beans in hot water bath and obviously we never died, but I know it's an iffy thing, at best.; March 2, 2010 at 11:34 AM
suz said...: RiM, thanks for the info. This might be something I have to try this summer, I think I would like it and hubs grandma canned so he would dig it too.; March 2, 2010 at 11:38 AM
Robin in Montana said...: It's a lot of work, but there's a very cool sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when you're looking at all your shined up jars of stuff! :-); March 2, 2010 at 11:40 AM
Anonymous said...: RIM, I would imagine as long as it sealed it would be okay. Did you water bath beans?

We live 5 minutes away from a farm. So I used some farm bought stuff as well as my own when I canned.

It was expensive for me because I had no jars. My MIL gave me the canning pot though. Where my mom works they sell canning stuff and she gets a discount and has picked stuff up for me.; March 2, 2010 at 11:41 AM
Anonymous said...: RIM and Suz, my mom said I should sell my salsa. It was that good. My daughter will sit and eat a pint jar of it herself.; March 2, 2010 at 11:43 AM
Robin in Montana said...: Sandy - I didn't do any beans. I grew up not knowing that it was unsafe to water bath them, but when I started reading looking for info I freaked out, lol. It's something to do with the low acidity making it not safe even though it's sealed.

I did have three big canners from my mom, and an outside three-burner gas stove, so that helped. I've been picking up jars and rings as I see them, and the lids aren't too bad, so outside the cost of the vegetables it shouldn't be too bad this year.; March 2, 2010 at 11:43 AM
Robin in Montana said...: Sandy - would you share your recipe? I made salsa, too, but in order for it to be "safe" being water-bath canned I had to have so much sugar and vinegar and while it was okay, I wasn't crazy about it.; March 2, 2010 at 11:44 AM
suz said...: Sandy, Salsa sounds good. I would like to try a green tomato salsa after Shannon brought that up a few days ago. Can't stop thinking about that one. Hubs loves peaches, I could do those for him. I would try about anything because I like almost all produce and fruit.; March 2, 2010 at 11:45 AM
kristin said...: gosh, the way you are talking about canning - you think you had a life or something, come on now - you are ruining it for the rest of us!; March 2, 2010 at 11:45 AM

Anonymous said...: Kristin, Your story of LM running off reminded me of when I hurt my knee chasing my 3 yr old across a field. He was trying to go to the car by himself and I was trying not to yell at him to stop because people were around. So I had to run and twisted my knee. It hurt for years after that...the little stinker.

I have been meaning to ask you if LM might be waking at night because he has to potty? We've had to take our middle son to the potty until recently and he's 10. When we started, we were taking him twice which was exhausting. It took forever to figure out a good time to catch him before he wet, but we finally settled on between 11-12. We also had 3 sets of sheets and pads so if he did wet we could just strip off a layer and put him back more quickly.; March 2, 2010 at 11:55 AM
Anonymous said...: Robin, will you share the link to that story? I'd like to pass it on to someone.; March 2, 2010 at 12:03 PM

kristin said...: I too thought it might be after he peed. He usually wakes up b/w 3 and 4. Last night I woke him up to go potty aruond 1:00 but he was already wet. I guess I need to do it around midnight or 11:00 and then again later. Ugghhh...not looking forward to that. :(; March 2, 2010 at 12:13 PM
My Sparkling Life said...: Kristin: My nephew had the same problem for a while. He went to be around 7-7:30 and we would get him out of be around 10PM and then around midnight. That seemed to do the trick.; March 2, 2010 at 12:16 PM

"This photo was certainly taken this morning and that is not a Holter monitor you're seeing in the photo:) Holter monitors go on the chest and attach to a box that looks like a pager. But thanks for the implication that I wasn't being truthful:)"

Shannon said...: Yeah Kristin JM tweeted she did it this morning and they just put it back into place....WTF????; March 2, 2010 at 12:52 PM
Shannon said...: I am sorry but Maisie is 2 years old dislocating her elbow means it could happen again and maybe just maybe a doctor should be looking at it and perhaps seeing about wrapping it or slinging it or something. I get she is only two but seriously they could do something so that she doesnt do it again.

But after all they gotta catch that plane and it was only the daughter...not one of the precious boys.; March 2, 2010 at 12:53 PM
My Sparkling Life said...: Are we taking any bets that she goes into labor in Africa and has the baby there? Now THAT would get her some major bucks.; March 2, 2010 at 12:54 PM
kristin said...: Yeah, that is insane! My mom did that to my sister trying to get swimmies on when she was little but I'm pretty sure we followed up with a doctor visit. JM is *almost a doctor so I guess she has it covered.

INSANE! Poor kids!; March 2, 2010 at 12:54 PM

1 - pregnant
2 - trip to ER
3 - dislocated shoulder

Maybe the plane will have mechanical problems or something. I really do feel sorry for those kids, their parents just don't want to spend time with them. I love spending time with my little man! He really is cool and surprises me all the time.

I just don't understand.at.all!; March 2, 2010 at 1:00 PM

I agree, I still think JM is writing these. But if he *did write it, I do agree with Robin that the post was...honest. Too much so, but still honest and that would be a really good thing when not made so public. Regardless of which of them wrote it, I'm really bothered by the idea of their kids reading this stuff or hearing about it from friends.; March 2, 2010 at 1:07 PM

Basically.
Jm- Lying bitch. She wants her kid to at least appear sick, because it makes him interesting. Otherwise she's just a boring screwed up cow who happens to be able to produce offspring.

IM isn't writing those posts, because what man writes like that? Especially to the public? Yeeeaahh. Also if he wrote like that, he's got to be gay. Which explains why he married JM, because from behind he can pretend she's "Carl-lonely rogue truck driver, driving his turnip truck and turning up the heat in the cab of his semi."

She is baiting people, it's annoying and offensive. "High risk ultrasound.. dude.. if that's what you have to say to get peopel to send you gifts I had a moderate risk spinal tap/amphotericin infusion this morning. Now make with my gifts people..

Robin in Montana said...: ::ignores AP and gives Jerry a carrot:::

Kristin - yes, BD is right, Jerry is my horse. AP has a thing for him, but he's having nothing to do with her. He's well-bred.

BD - Office supply stores have forms, as well as like Kristin said, bookstores and such. Having one drawn up with an attorney shouldn't cost too much, though, either as long as there aren't really complex issues.; March 2, 2010 at 1:48 PM

Anonymous said...: SW- Kate Gosselin annoys me. A.LOT. Can't the woman just take care of her kids instead of having to be in the spotlight all the time? And her hair? It's got to be the worst haircut in the history of mankind.

LFoB- Amphotericin? Yikes. I understand why you feel so sick. It sucks :-(; March 2, 2010 at 1:49 PM
kristin said...: BD - also, you might inquire if you have insurance. I think our insurance company (not health) offered the service here for a small fee.; March 2, 2010 at 1:50 PM
Angie said...: BD, hiring a lawyer where you are is the best bet, for several reasons. First, the law applicable to wills are very state-specific. Second, wills are pretty reasonably-priced. You can call around and get flat-fee quotes. Third, depending on the law of your state, an "informal" will may not be enforceable. For example, in Alabama, I can write on a napkin and sign it that I want everything to go to my cats, but it wouldn't be enforceable, even if there were witnesses.

On the other hand, there may be some reputable websites offering state-specific wills. I don't know enough to recommend them though.; March 2, 2010 at 1:50 PM
Jennifer-Lynn said...: No, I don't think it will be too complex. That's so helpful...thanks!; March 2, 2010 at 1:51 PM

Lisa said...: Oh, I read that about Kate Gosselin and wanted to gag a little. You know, I liked her up until the weave but that just somehow symbolized what she's become. I hope she falls. And sorry about your shirt.

"Also if he wrote like that, he's got to be gay. Which explains why he married JM, because from behind he can pretend she's "Carl-lonely rogue truck driver, driving his turnip truck and turning up the heat in the cab of his semi."

Lord...lololol...
Oh, hey. Could *that be the big thing he couldn't even say on the blog? Because if it's worse than admitting to little dick syndrome, it's baaaaaad.

BD, I got a will package at Staples years ago. It's pretty self-explanatory and easy. I took it to the courthouse and paid a filing fee and that was that.; March 2, 2010 at 1:51 PM
Angie said...: LFoB, it's great to have you back here today. It's also great to see HiT.; March 2, 2010 at 1:51 PM

Angie said...: BD, LOL re your powers of deduction. Okay, I didn't really LOL. But I cracked a wry smile, which is something.

What is your take, BD, on whether AP's b/f Israel is really writing for himself? You're a writer, you know this stuff. (If you've already given your two cents, I apologize for not remembering.); March 2, 2010 at 1:55 PM
Lisa said...: Speaking of truckers, here's a little handy tidbit to know. "Good buddy" is not a friend or fellow trucker. It's a gay trucker. Do not try to be CD-hip and call a trucker "good buddy".; March 2, 2010 at 1:55 PM
Jennifer-Lynn said...: AP: Dumb question. Did you have to sign it at the courthouse, because of witnesses and filing requirements? And where do you keep it?

I know, I'm dumb.; March 2, 2010 at 1:55 PM
Angie said...: AP, I agree with you re the weave symbolizing her true character. A mother of 8 doesn't have two days to spend getting a weave. Or dancing on ABC. I feel sorry for her poor kids.; March 2, 2010 at 1:56 PM

kristin said...: Next on DWTS - JM or IM... or both, since they seem to do everything together.; March 2, 2010 at 1:58 PM
Life full of bRATS said...: Ha, but really I find her life laughable.. Maybe it's because I think if she lived one day, actually sick (even if her morning sickness is sooo hard) that she'd probably become a real christian. Real faith isn't screamed at the top of a roof.. seriously, honestly? Real faith is a very private, personal relationship. One you don't have to talk about. The more you do, really to me the more you're missing.; March 2, 2010 at 1:58 PM
Lisa said...: I feel terribly sorry for those kids, yes. Surely to goodness she can do something that keeps her home with them so they have a constant parent. But no, it appears to be all about Kate now. On the plus side, it'll make for some interesting tabloid reading in about 10 years when those kids start going really nuts.; March 2, 2010 at 1:59 PM
Anonymous said...: LFoB- Back when I was still a pre-med (meaning last year ;-) ) I had a pharmacology class and we were taught about several antifungal drugs, including amphotericin B. Nasty stuff. I'm sorry you have to take it :-(; March 2, 2010 at 2:02 PM
Anonymous said...: Re: The Gosselins.

I feel so bad for those kids. Their dad seems to be going through some sort of life crisis that makes him a real bastard and their mother is more worried about her image than her kids. So sad.; March 2, 2010 at 2:04 PM
Robin in Montana said...: Just blurting this out here -- second to last game of the year for Cami's basketball team. Wish them luck, please! Don't worry, her hair looks good, and she touched up nail polish this morning. ::sigh::; March 2, 2010 at 2:04 PM
manda said...: Good morning/afternoon everyone.

No, I certainly don't think MckDaddy posts are written by Isreal, they have JM written all over them.

Who knows what's up with that cord, but it makes sense that Stellan was the one that needed to go to the ER, we'll see if she posts about that. I'm guessing not today.; March 2, 2010 at 2:05 PM

Hey, CM!; March 2, 2010 at 2:07 PM

Life full of bRATS said...: Poor stellan.. I want to grab him up and run off with him. Feed him cupcakes and lunchables, and only feed him avocado in the form of guacomole. Also he'd never have his face plastered all over the internet. :( Those poor kids could do so much better.; March 2, 2010 at 2:08 PM
kristin said...: Maybe while she is waiting for the plane or while on the plane or maybe even in the car on the way to the airport.

I really feel bad for those kids but really for the 2 that were hurt. How does that make them feel? I know even now when I hurt myself, I just want mommy. I'm sure JM put the arm back in socket, went and tweeted about it, patted little maisie on the head and said "oh, you'll be fine honey - now go play while I go finish packing. I'll be back in a few weeks."

CRAZY!; March 2, 2010 at 2:09 PM

Go Cami! Don't mess up your hair or your nail polish!; March 2, 2010 at 2:10 PM

Robin in Montana said...: I am worried. This morning in the car on the way to school, she also said (they've been working on distracting the person shooting) that if the girl she is guarding takes a shot, she is going to bark. Katie gave her a very long, level look and said in her most disdainful voice ever, "Do you WANT people to think you're stupid?"; March 2, 2010 at 2:12 PM
kristin said...: I mean it's not like Maisie had a heart condition or anything. JM would be all over that crap!

So much for "focus on family"?; March 2, 2010 at 2:13 PM

I obviously need a Katie in my life.
Good luck to Cami!; March 2, 2010 at 2:24 PM

It's happening already. MckDaddy just turned to me and asked, "Did we pack our phone chargers?" Why, yes Darling. WE did!!!! Sigh.

She is so rude!; March 2, 2010 at 2:29 PM

kristin said...: are you hinting RiM? lol!

so kidding!

SO's digital camera broke too - I have the SLR I bought for my sis but not a point and shoot anymore :(; March 2, 2010 at 2:34 PM
manda said...: RiM- You know, the pony tail part for Dr. Suess' birthday, not the uhhh, 'inadequacy.' That's really *not* so cute. Downright weird, actually. I mean, I understand, I get, that he HAS those feelings, but broadcasting them to the masses, well.... whatever, it's his little dick life.; March 2, 2010 at 2:34 PM
My Sparkling Life said...: I've got a new job for JM. She could be used by the government when they are interogatting terrorists, etc. Just sitting in a room listening to her spout off drivel would be enough to get anyone to confess....; March 2, 2010 at 2:35 PM

They never speak of IRL friends that they do things socially with all the time, but jeez, any guy I know who is a friend of ours would ride (figurately, not literally, just to be clear here) Kelly into the *ground over a "little dick" comment. lol.

Kristin - Yes, hinhting. I have no Chipotle nearby, so gift cards to Best Buy as way of donation for my new camera are welcome. ::nod::

Speaking of which -- point and shoots - what's anyone have that they love? Wouldn't recommend? I have a Sony (pink, very cute, but sucks) at the moment, but the lense is all jacked up and it takes crappy pics anyway.; March 2, 2010 at 2:38 PM

Lindsay said...: I have had enough. Enough of this bitch. WTF! Playing on people's emotions. Bitch. Bitch. Bitch. AAAAAAAACK! I don't hate anyone, and I thought I was over JM other than curiousity, but to reply and be snarky about her truthfulness without saying what the deal was with the cord? That goes above and beyond bitch. That is the most cruel, conniving, deceitful, lying sack of shit thing I have ever heard of. I'm getting pretty close to hate. It's a very strong dislike that borders on hate.

And apparently it doesn't bug the sheeple. And I can't help them if they are stupid. She's a piece of shit. She's a piece of shit if she's lying about Stellan having a cord and she's "staging" it to drum up hits. She's a bigger piece of shit if he does have a cord and she's still going to Kenya.

Sorry, that was the last straw.; March 2, 2010 at 2:47 PM
Lisa said...: I'm worried about Israel. If he really wrote that, that all sounds like someone who could be dropping big hints about being suicidal. Think about it. If he *didn't write it, he might well kill her when the remarks start coming in.

As a side note, if one buys into stereotypes, and I'm betting they both do, I can't imagine Africa is a place a small-dicked man is going to enjoy being. I'm telling you, we should worry.; March 2, 2010 at 2:48 PM

manda said...: I think JM's reply to the snarky (yes, truthful, but snarky) comment left on the picture post regarding the cord was complete bullshit. She had the oppurtunity to clear up any misconception about why Stellan was wearing the cord and she chose not to. SO SHE COULD EFF WITH HER READERS! And they're too stupid to see that.
