Don't make yourself sick....calm down hun. I am sure it is not anything serious. Try to get some sleep and try to relax. Maybe it is twins.....

I am teasing, how I break tension. You are in my prayers tonight and I bet there is nothing wrong. Going to Omak Clinic? I think they open at 7....I would start calling them every 60 seconds until you got an answer.

Yeah....I know....

Yes, it's Omak and yes, they open at 7am. Which is the same time I have to be at work. Luckily, I'm one of only three people there on Fridays so I'll be calling first thing in the morning to see what's up.

I will about bet it is something really stupid...they need to verify your DOB, they are changing the baby's due date, the insurance, etc, etc, etc. Just relax (I know easier said then done). Call them the second you get to work. Leave 100 messages so you are at the top of the pile. Tell them you are totally freaked out and got no sleep because someone called your house and you don't know why. Get emotional....sorry, but pull the "I am a pregnant hormonal woman" card if they try to stall you at all. Again, I bet that all is well.

I mean HUGE. The Monroe show was less than half the size this one is going to be. It's the APA semi-national, the ABA district meet, and the Western Silkie National. They upped the space from two barns to four.

alright this is the one my boyfriend and parents were going to get me for a xmas gift but changed their minds.... now the situation has made me aware of the real world and i better be prepared.

someday i might get a hand gun. but right now i would be looking at a 5day wait period plus the few days to get concealer permit.... i am better getting this right now and no formal training on how to use. i haven't used a handgun only shotguns.... i assume they are a little different. tasers are also permitted in more places and to not scare people as much.....

online at the website this is normally $450 but i just got it at tristate for $300+ tax, and in idaho tax is alot less. so 10 minute drive back and i am now registering for my background check to activate this.

has a laser pointer for aiming and has a flashlight for walking

I was hoping so---but the phone number on the caller ID is different than the one you call to make appointments, change appointments, etc--it's not the "reception desk."

The number when I called was the actual radiology department.

let her - both my kids learned. My DH could use them before he used a fork! When I first moved up here, I went to Noble Court for Dim sum with a friend of mine who is from Hong Kong and her 18 mo. daughter. When they brought out only chop sticks, my friend asked the waitress for a fork for me. The waitress put the flatware on the high-chair and gave me the chopsticks. When we switched and I saw the baby could already use chopsticks I was so embarrassed! I learned quickly. For my son, se always had them around. Initially, he would stub his food with them and lif it that way. Then I rolled up the paper wrapper, put it between the sticks near the fat end and rubber-banded it so he could use them as pincers. I never showed him how to use the chopsticks, but it was not long before he learned and did not need the rubber band. My SIL and MIL were visiting when we were all invited to a New Years Party at the home of some Japanese friends, and they took video of Alex eating sushi with chopstick at barely 3 YO. My mother thinks it is just wierd that we eat soup with chopsticks now. My DD is not so skilled, I think because she does not like Asian foods.

I learned when I was 7 years old. Chloe has been using them for just under a year. She can pick up larger objects, "nickle sized and bigger." My DH's step mother is half Philipino, and she taught him and his brother young. The funny thing is, I cant stand eating asian food with a fork, and he almost always refuses to use the sticks. lol

Creepy and wrong. You need to be VERY clear with him that there is no relationship if you don't want there to be. Young women sometimes make the mistake of not being clear or assertive enough because they want to "be nice". Im not saying you need to be rude, just clear.

Stalking can occur at any age; just because he is old, it does not make him more likely to break any laws. It is creepy though, so be very clear with him. If you are feeling uncomfortable, you should notify campus police. If he does try and cross a boundry, certainly the police ASAP and consider a restraining order. Meanwhile, it is good to let all your friends know about this. When I was in my twenties, I had a man that I had dated for a few months stalk me for a few years! It really freaked me out. He'd show up at my work, at first I'd find rose petals on my car, or teady bears and big boquets of flowers. Never a note. Initially I did not know it was him. I thought I had some secret admirer, and my whole team at work would guess who it must be, then he went in the building and had the receptionist page me to the front desk. My car did not start after work that day, and I had co-workers drive me home and take me back again until I had the car inspected. They started locking the doors in daylight hours after his visit - he was not ever violent, but sooo depressed I thought he'd kill himself. I did not fear for my safety until a different stalker took out an ex girlfriend and many of her co-workers just a few miles away. I still don't think he has any violence in him, but someone that unstable you never know! He'd show up at my house (I lived with my parents in CA) drunk at 3 am and he was never a drinker when we dated. Then I moved to Washington, and he knocked on my door early one Sunday morning. Somehow he found out I moved to Washington. Mom ran into him somewhere, she swears she did not tell him where I lived, even the state, but she did tell him I was renting apartment and I could walk on a trail right out my door and go wine tasting. A few days later, there he was at my apartment door in Woodinville. I did not call the police. I should of, but I felt sorry for the guy. I went downstairs and to the apartment complex's social room by the front desk and talked to him to find out how he tracked me down - I was not listed. He looked for pharmaceutical companies, and then looked for wineries on a trail in the same area. He narrowed it down to the Woodinville/Bothell area, and then phoned the apartment managers at all the nearby apartment complexes saying he was a potential landlord calling for a credit check on me. That way he found out what complex I lived in. He bought plane tickets, flew out here, went to the desk and told them he was supposed to meet me for a hike that morning but had forgotten which apartment I lived it. I told him I never wanted to see him again and asked him to leave. He said he just came to tell me that he found a new girlfriend who looked a lot like me and even went to the same college (and he had to hunt me down to tell me this????), but he did leave and I never saw nor heard from him again. I then went to the apartment manager and read them the riot act! I already was in the process of purchasing a home, and I could not move soon enough.

Be Careful!
