    I know. My inbox is crazy at times. But if I am on my Ipod then it helps because it will take right to the new post with in a thread.

    Everything is in order about the "watch" stuff. Maybe it's because I only read the thread and don't comment very often.. I got notification right away after I posted about not getting any notifications! Hahaha!!

    Funny! When you complain about something all of a sudden it works. Like taking the car to a machanic and then the darn thing starts running right. LOL

    You worded that just fine. Yes there IS lots of love out there for everyone. I know that Joyce will find someone or someone will find her! I just feel it in my bones.

    You hang in there mama. Joyce is such a sweetie and I know that there is a Mike out there for her!

    Though I think it is from stress. My DD has been having stomach pain for over a week now. We thought it was her ulcer acting up again. Well she started running a fever and having sharp pains on her lower right side and back with nausia, I got her into the Dr. yesterday and they did the usual blood work and a ultra sound. Her CBC was out of wack but the ultra sound showed nothing wrong so they did a CAT Scan and found a stone in her kidney on the right side. We see a Urologist on Monday to see what they think should be done. She is on pain pills and they knock her out. I guess that is a good thing.
    CARRIE! Way to go!! Keep it up!!

    I am so sorry your DD is dealing with stones. UGH. That is so painful. Take good care of her mama!!

    Chocolate 101: Size Matters!

    Before you chew, know the difference between Snack Size, Fun Size, and Miniatures...

    Miniatures/Minis are the square-shaped morsels -- those babies are each about a quarter of an ounce in weight.

    A Snack Size or Fun Size chocolate treat weighs in at a little more than half an ounce and is usually about 2 inches long.

    Not all size-categorized treats are created equal. We've found seemingly identical Fun Size bars on shelves -- same brand, same flavor -- with varying weights and calorie counts. If you want to be extra-careful, we recommend going by the higher set of stats listed below.
