How to be happy?!!(19 Posts)
So wise relationship mumsnetters..... I am in a fairly new relationship after a few years being single. I found the strength to walk away from a long and very unhappy and emotionally abusive marriage. Trouble is, turns out despite lots of counselling I'm more scarred than I thought.
I'm in love, he's a good man, but when I used to daydream about finally meeting the right person for me, my imaginary man was totally different to the real life one I've found. I don't trust my own judgement anymore. Are my imaginary tick boxes important? I have nagging doubts but can't justify them.
How do you learn to be happy and be satisfied with life? How do you know a good thing when it is probably staring you in the face? Even if it doesn't match up to what you thought you wanted, as daydreams are full of fantasy and not reality?! It's also hard when you mix two people who have children, full time jobs etc etc and never enough time to conduct a relationship and you're not veering towards the traditional goals of living together etc. It's like learning a whole new way of doing things and it's all so unfamiliar.
Not sure I'm making sense or what I'm asking really. Just want to be happy. But now the honeymoon period is over I'm not sure what day to day happiness feels like. More damaged than I thought. Can anyone recommend any reading or wise tips? Perhaps happiness starts from within is true and more counselling is needed!! But can't find the right one. Thanks for any thoughts x
Can't find the right counsellor I meant. I've seen two and can't face going over it all again....
I think I get where you are coming from. I don't think I can live with my boyfriend at any time in the next few years, it's too complicated. And then that means won't get married. It's not the picture I may have had.
And intially neither was he. I had this whole other picture of what a man might look like or be like and he's not at all. But he's so kind, and so lovely that all those pictures just kind of fade, and he's the picture instead?
But it could be that this isn't about that, it's about you having a fantasy in your mind that you can't seem to shake off because it's easier to hang on to a fantasy than actually live things for real?
Thanks so much for your reply. I am glad you picture faded and / or he became your picture. I hope my picture fades too because I know I have a good kind man who would do anything for me or my children. And the bits he hasn't got that my fantasy man has, I know are shallow and shouldn't matter. So why can't I let them go?!! I'm not sure if I'm using them as an excuse, self-sabotaging and go back to the safety of singledom! Where I was content but lonely at the same time. I can talk myself out of or into anything, too much head and not enough heart. Can't win, I need help!
I just feel my judgement is wrecked. Can't work out if I am 'settling', even tho for the most part he makes me happy or whether he is in fact wonderful and I have watched / read too many idealistic romantic films / books.
I mean it could be that he isn't right for you but you don't want to let him go because he's kind and nice. I think some other things usually are the key there - is he more a friend than a lover? Do you have sexual chemistry?
I enjoyed being single too and had a wobble about 'settling' and things like he really likes talking on the phone and I don't much, whether I wanted to commit to the hassle of talking on the bloody phone but the more time I spend with him the more I enjoy his company and miss him when he isn't there. I had spent a long time by myself and it's hard to get used to sharing things again.
Also films and books do have a lot to answer for...
Try focussing on one day at a time and getting as much enjoyment and gratitude out of each one. He might be Mr Right or he might be Mr Right Now, you will know when your enjoyment of lots of individual days is less than it used to be.
It doesn't matter how far you look ahead, there are still no guarantees.
Mindfulness. This moment, now. Just.
Thanks all. I can see the sense in everything said. The sexual chemistry has been amazing. Which I struggled to get my head around if I thought about it too much as he's so not physically what I would usually find myself attracted too. Beer belly... I hate myself for being so shallow but at the same time I love his brain and definitely more than a friend in the ways that matter.
He takes it personally when I want time on my own as he says he'd be with me all the time if we could. So it again makes me question my feelings. But I just think after years on my own I'm another one who values my own space. One day at a time is a good way to live but I don't want to lead him up a garden path if I have doubts. But I won't even know if they're doubts or wobbles, scared of being hurt, or just having to get my head around reality being different to fantasy. Deffo more counselling for me!!!
Maybe it isn't all you if he is insecure and needs/wants your free time?
There are certainly things about my BF I would have ruled out on some imaginary list at some point but I am no perfect woman myself so find it easier to accept flaws in others as I age?
Really appreciate your responses BumDNC thank you. Yep good point. I am definitely not without fault. But then in my counselling after my abusive marriage I was taught to value myself, hence sometimes the confusion. Am I settling or expecting something unrealistic?!! Or is he just plain old fashioned not right for me? He is definitely a bit insecure but then so am I. I don't think I expect perfection just don't yet trust my judgment on where the compromises should be. Day at a time!
Can anybody recommend any books around this please? You know, not seeking perfection, learning to be content, adjusting after long term abusive relationships? Thank you x
I'm not really into this whole "the difference between men and women" thing but I've never had a "picture" in my head of my ideal woman, or had any expectation of what my future lovers might be like. Not even physically - I can never predict who I'm going to fancy. Beyond intelligence and some nice curves I don't have a type at all.
So I suppose I'd ask - is this a woman thing, or is it a you thing? I feel like specific expectations / dreams probably aren't that helpful because they sound like they'd stop you from seeing the man you have in front of you properly. As someone else said, maybe some mindfulness techniques to help you live more in the now?
I'm not sure if this will help or not but I was with my ex for 6 years and constantly felt like I was trying really hard to be content the whole time. When we finally broke up I realised intrinsically we had different values and the things that made me happy and content weren't things he valued and vice versa. Which I think contributed to me constantly being aware that I wasn't content in the same way he was.
With DP it's so different. It feels like we're part of the same team and have very similar values and goals. I truly have never been happier and actually said to him the other day that I had always worried I was someone who couldn't be content with life as I'm quite driven, but in reality I just wasn't content with the situation I was in at the time.
Thank you for your responses, I appreciate them. fulberoo I wish I could be more like you. Ditch these preconceived ideas!! Due to how I've been left financially I've had to ditch many of my preconceived ideas of where I'd be, at this stage of my life, in terms of a house and financial security. I've adjusted my thinking quite well I think and have had to let it go and make huge adjustments. So I just wish I could roll more with this relationship and let go of this stupid picture of my 'ideal man'. Because same as you wifeyFish I actually feel we very much have shared values and goals and we really support each other. The things that bother me are so shallow and concern appearance, lifestyle that I feel embarrassed at admitting it when we click on so many levels. I know these things shouldn't matter. And they probably don't. Think i just look to sabotage rather than take a risk at being happy, I feel safer on my own
You cannot let go of your fantasy man's perfect traits because we are human beings that dream of what they cannot have. We are taught to seek perfection and not settle for less, that is what we get when we finally find some happiness and seem to think it just isn't enough.
The only healthy course of action I can see is to see which is better - the things you have created in your mind, or what the reality of this man is. Another thing is that maybe the things that bug you are just things that can in fact become reality, but you haven't found a way to discuss them?
He takes it personally when I want time on my own as he says he'd be with me all the time if we could.
That really does not sound good. I wonder if your instincts are trying to tell you something, and you're picking it up as "he's not what I expected to end up with" rather than "he's potentially controlling".
After your marriage, did you seek any counselling specifically about EA? The Freedom Programme or similar?
Thanks for the replies. That's such a good point about which is better, fantasy or reality. Straight away my reaction was my reality is better, which pleased me! I'll never meet anyone that ticks all my daft boxes and the ones that he does tick are actually way more important than the ones he doesn't. Some of the things he doesn't tick could become reality but actually i admire the fact he is very comfortable about who he is. He's all for communicating and compromising to make our relationship work but has a healthy grip around not changing yourself to please someone else. Anyway he doesn't need to change. He's a good decent man, it's me that needs to change my mindset, or let him go if he's really not right.
I feel I've done him an injustice when I say he takes it personally if I don't spend time with him. He's never given me a hard time, I feel I've worded that wrong on reflection. He has friends and other interests, but beyond that he'd always choose to spend time with me and was a bit surprised when I didn't say the same. But it wasn't a problem. He knows I need my space.
I think actually my problem is more that I can't accept being happy and cling onto any reason to pick it apart. God this is such a self indulgent thread!!!! I didn't persevere with my counselling long enough. I need to find the funds and go back, good shout about the freedom programme, thanks.
It's possible you are finding a happy, healthy relationship hard to handle if you are used to a toxic one. Oddly, you could be "more comfortable" when there is lots of drama because that is what you are used to.

|MadSci Network: Astronomy
Oct 3, around 8:30 p.m. my cousin and I watched the International Space Station cross the sky from SW to NE. Then, the moon came up, and it was full and very bright. Looking through binoculars, we saw 2 parallel black lines on the face of the moon (in the middle, like "nose holes"). The lines glided off the face of the moon, exiting at the 10-o'clock position. The lines were very black and maybe got a little longer as they drifted up. We wonder if this could have been the space station casting a large shadow back on the earth, much like an eclipse??? I asked a source at APOD, who said it was "more likely a boundary between areas of local air transparency." But he didn't explain what that is, and, anyway, I don't think that's what it was, even if I don't know what it means!
Re: Could the Space Station 'eclipse' the moon?

There she was, driving down the road, straddling the center line on Atwood, heading right for me. I honked wildly, tried to get out of the way, but the rush hour crowd around me left little room for movement.
Driver's side mirror knocked off, her car scraping along the side from front fender to back, never veering off the straight line she was aiming down the road. I watched in my rear-view mirror as she continued on toward downtown.
After taking a few breaths, I pulled off onto a side street and called the police (my cell phone entered "Emergency Mode" once I had dialed 911, with the text in all red and flashing lights. Very cool. And odd.). As I was on the phone, a car pulled alongside mine and a woman waved a hubcap at me. Mine, apparently. Knocked off along with the mirror, and she'd been nice enough to retrieve it for me.
The general consensus around the house is "Why did it have to be the good car?"
This evening, Aidan and Egon and I played a couple of hilarious rounds of Water Works. Whenever Aidan drew a leaky card, she'd proclaim herself in search of some "major destruction." Seems to be the theme of the day.

Important Information Regarding Hurricane Irma
Fields to Close This WeekendUpdated Thursday September 7, 2017 by Stephen Marrero.
Hello Baseball Families-
As Hurricane Irma continues to churn through the Caribbean Sea, she sets her aim on our state and our area. Our league board of directors have met and continue to meet on what this means for our league.
As we know in Florida the importance of preparation for the worst, we all hope and pray this storm passes us by. We want our baseball families to be safe through the storm and have the opportunity to prepare your families and homes. As such, due to this threat, the fields will be closed to all league activities this weekend, and possibly part of early next week. We will re-open the fields once the storm has passed and it is safe to return to our normal baseball routine.
With this field closure, coupled with the already historic number of practice cancellations we have had due to rain and weather, we have made the decision to delay the start of the season (opening day) to September 30th. We will add two weeks onto the back end of the season after Thanksgiving (Thanksgiving week will be an off week).
Thank your understanding and patience during this time.
Please be safe.

A Type of Pain That Can Be Hard to Pinpoint and Describe By Erica Jacques | Reviewed by Grant Hughes, MD Updated December 09, 2017 Share Flip Email Print BJI / Blue Jean Images/Getty Images More in Chronic Pain Types Diagnosis Treatment Living With Visceral pain is a type of nociceptive pain that comes from the internal organs. As with somatic pain, pain receptors called nociceptors send signals to the spinal cord and brain when damage is detected. Unlike somatic pain, however, visceral pain is harder to pinpoint in terms of location within the body. Some types of pelvic pain and abdominal pain, such as those caused by bladder disorders or irritable bowel syndrome, are considered to be visceral pain disorders. What Visceral Pain Feels Like Visceral pain is often described as generalized aching or squeezing. It is caused by compression in and around the organs, or by stretching of the abdominal cavity. Sometimes visceral pain may radiate to other areas in the body, making it even harder to pinpoint its exact location. The Difference Between Superficial and Deep or Visceral Pain When you cut your finger with a knife, you experience sharp and rapid pain. But deeper organs (like your intestines or bladder) lack receptors that convey sharp and rapid pain—thus the quality and timing of visceral pain is different from superficial pain. Furthermore, when you cut your finger, you know where the pain is—in other words, you are able to localize it. But with deeper, visceral pain, it is harder to tell exactly where the source of the pain is, as pain is often referred. For example, pain from the heart can be felt in the left arm and neck, and bladder pain may be felt in the perineum. In addition, systemic, or system-wide symptoms, typically accompany visceral pain, such as nausea, sweating, paleness, and changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature. Finally unlike superficial pain, visceral pain tends to radiate to other body parts making the whole pain experience more diffuse and markedly unpleasant. Overall, the reason for the difference in the location and timing of visceral pain versus somatic pain is due to the low number of sensory receptors found in the viscera (your internal organs). Simulating Visceral Pain in the Lab In an experiment to stimulate visceral pain, researchers attached a balloon to a tube and then inflated this balloon while in the stomach. Researchers were thus able to better appreciate the severe nature of visceral pain and found that its greatest with organ distension. Applying this lab experiment to real life, if you have a small bowel obstruction, the intestines distend and cause intestinal colic. Colic describes pain that waxes and wanes. As the intestines continue to distend, inflammation and organ injury occur, which is especially sensitive to even the most minor stimuli, such as movement. If you've ever seen a person with bowel obstruction, you know that even the most subtle movements can bring on severe pain. Treatment of Visceral Pain Visceral pain responds well to weak opioids such as codeine, though stronger opioids such as morphine may also be used. That being said, opioids can cause unpleasant side effects like constipation and sleepiness. They also carry the risk of a person developing tolerance and/or addiction. The good news is that experts are researching better therapies to treat visceral pain disorders. For example, the medication Lyrica (Pregabalin) is used to treat fibromyalgia, a visceral pain condition that causes diffuse muscle tenderness, along with other symptoms.

There are a few differences between shakes and chili dogs. Shakes can be routine and boring. But chili dogs, WOW! This is one of God's greatest combinations. I bring this to you because my brother Dave (who is battling with cancer) is back to eating small bits of food, rather than taking all of his nutrition through his feeding tube hanging outside his abdomen by shake. He said that after smelling the chili his family was enjoying tonight for dinner, he was going to try it on a hot dog in small bites. Wallah! It was stinkin great to eat for him. Praise God! He is able to eat again. Wasn't sure how all this was going to go for him, but it is nothing short of pure bliss.
What a great last 5 days in my life. Watching my kids in volleyball and x-country. Corey coming home from K-State for the weekend. Hanging out with new friends all weekend. (Thanks Hope, Tim, Amy and Gary for a great time Friday and Saturday)! You are blessings to our family.
RiverPoint continues to see new people come to worship with us on Sunday mornings. Looking forward to this weekend where Brad's messages will be recorded for mp3 replay till Christ returns. Played some fun frisbee football with over 25 students at Fusion on Sunday evening. Thanks parents for trusting us with your students. Still learning about how to have a prayer life on Sunday nights with the students. Great job Brad.
Need to add Brad to the people I know right now with low back pain (my wife Sharon is another). Please pray for the pain to go away from them.
To all of you who do not have a church family that is not reaching you. IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANT THAT YOU HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST NOW! Please do not delay. Go to a church that is preaching the word, reaching the lost (maybe like you) and bringing those far from God and bringing to feet of Jesus Christ. You, your family, friends and co-workers deserve an opportunity for the same. Remember: Friends don't let others in their life go to hell. Tell them the truth. Get the picture. I'm sure you could, if you haven't yet.
Really looking forward to God launching RiverPoint Church on October 21. So proud of the work that the RPC launch team is doing and how huge of an AWAKENING this is going to be! Making Jesus Christ famous!

This week has been an adventure: seeing Dan's family, seeing my family, and feeling like I haven't stopped moving for days. On the one hand, it frustrates me; work feels so draining so often that I like to enjoy my days off by doing as little as possible. At the same time, though, it's nice to have a reason to get dressed and socialize, especially with family. While I don't necessarily feel like I'm rested up for working this weekend (especially starting at eight-thirty tomorrow morning, the day of Santa's "arrival"), I'm going to believe it was worth it.

While lawmakers were nearly unanimous in saying Obama had to change generals after the article, Feinstein said those diplomats should not get a free pass with Petraeus. Speaking on "Fox News Sunday," the senator said Petraeus must be a "command presence" on the team.
"(Petraeus) should make the calls. If he can't work with the ambassador, the ambassador should change. If he can't work with Holbrooke, that should change," Feinstein said. "I think we put all of our eggs in the Petraeus basket."
"This is a chance to start over completely, and the military-civilian relationship is very important," Graham said. "But I'm very concerned if nothing changes on the civilian side."
It's curious because Sen. Dianne Feinstein actually said something "not malicious or dripping with venom" about the military. I'm not sure how that happened without her head exploding. Oh well, there is a first for everything I suppose. Secondly it's how the Congress picked up on exactly the points GEN Stanley McChrystal was trying to express when he crossed the line and resigned. Two points he was trying to make were: the political arm of the operation is failing miserably and hampering all points of the holistic operation as well has creating an environment where the rules of engagement (ROE) are costing NATO forces lives. So what's happend sense? GEN Petraeus is changing the ROE and Congress wants the State Department (DOS) to get their act together and start acting as part of the Afgan mission team vs. their current status of armchair quarterbacking the military. At least GEN McChrystal can go out knowing his statements are validated by even his critics, although still not allowable under the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). The President had to act, and GEN McChrystal manned up and did the honorable thing by resigning.
The DOS has a separate, and distinct, mission in regards to Afghanistan. Of which they are failing. Instead of fixing their own house they blame the military who in NOT in charge of the DOS for their inaction and ineffectiveness. When Congressmen make statements like "I think we put all of our eggs in the Petraeus basket." DOS is put on notice that they need to stop mucking about or get the hell out of the way. The President, and Congress, have picked their horse and it's not Amb. Karl Eikenberry or Special Representative Richard Holbrooke. At least President Obama now knows GEN Petraeus won't run against him in 2012. He'll be too busy fighting a war for him and well on his way to becoming one of the most popular American figures in recent memory. If Biden had any plans to run in 2016 he's now, well…. he's probably screwed.

Fundamentalist christian dating
The young people actually approach their parents at some point and agree to be betrothed, and then the parents have permission to start looking for a spouse, pick them out and present them. So in each case, the worst dating profile picture used are not their real names.
He blushed and rejected the offer, but took my hand and held it the rest of the flight. If the boy gets permission to court, he might be allowed to ask her himself not dad telling her.
I am also a blogger, occasionally on Christian living, and I must submit to the same. As we all know, pursuing Jesus means discontinuing everything else in life. I was so depressed that I could not bring myself to engage with my new colleagues. I effortlessly landed a salaried job in marketing in a gray building in a gray cubicle. And then, of course, everything changed when I met a man I really, really liked.
And adamant about my plan to hitchhike to California in my bikini. You may just not be her type, or she may not want a relationship right now— she may have a number of reasons. For those unfamiliar with the subject, dating is a relatively simple procedure that must always be hopelessly complicated for any Christian daring to try it out.
I love this Jacob. Both girl and boy will be told that a match has been found. I chuckled, since at first I thought he was joking.
She leads yoga and mindfulness retreats and fundamentalists christian dating as the retreat managers for the stunningly beautiful Villa Sumaya on majestic Lago Atitlan. This is the inescapable, platonic box to which a girl supposedly designates any good guy who actually cares about her.
I agree with you that the fundamentalist christian dating method is basically an arranged marriage. When I expressed interest to them in sharing their stories, there was one common response from all of the subjects: My 24th birthday was on May 30, Because of him, I reopened to the teachings of Christ, for the first time in my adult life. No, they are just slightly more subtle.
By anarchists apparently
People find themselves married to a stranger, who may have undisclosed secrets, habits, or addictions that were not easy to spot during the high of the honeymoon stage.
But there are options for those who have experienced spiritual abuse or worse at the hands of religion. I was working with particular intensity on a scene in which my heroine, Margot, was struggling to salvage her relationship with Joshua, a Christian. In my moment of desperation, I asked Jesus to give me a sign. My issue is your departure from good, sound, tested doctrine, not to just challenge the establishment. Like seriously, what in the world?
If she does feel something, breaking off contact entirely is encouraged. Because Stan was open to listening to me, I found myself drawn to him. Not one of us is righteous, Romans 3:

TB Joshua Church Nigeria | tbjfansuk.wordpress.com
Miss Genevive Anyama was aged nine when she had a bizarre dream. She saw herself under water in a deep sea. Straight from that dream, an evil spirit had entered her. She developed affection for women and visited lesbian pornographic sites on internet. She had no affection for men but desired fellow girls. She was then living in India with her sister who also was having her own nightmares – having sex in dreams, masturbating and clubbing. Away from the watchful eye of her parents, Genevive started dating fellow girls and living as a lesbian. They never went to church let alone read the Bible. Discovering what their daughters were engaging into, her mother would call them and ask them to watch Emmanuel TV. They would laugh it off because, to them, there was nothing wrong with the life they were living. Her mother was left with no choice but to summon them back to Nigeria by tricking them with a promise to travel to America. Instead, they were told they had come to be prayed for and get delivered.
They were implored to start watching Emmanuel TV but found everything ridiculous. They would laugh when they saw people manifest on Emmanuel TV. It was until they came to The SCOAN and were arranged at the prayer line that the severity of their spiritual life was exposed. In that mighty battle between light and darkness, the evil spirit that had taken residency in them spoke out and confessed to have been responsible for their indulgence in the illicit sexual relationships. The demon was cast out and the Holy Spirit took over. Delivered and set free, she no longer desires fellow women for relationships. The Bible has become her close companion and she no longer listens to worldly music. They advised, "Smoking and clubbing is not the joy of life but praying!"

A Bloomington man used the app Grindr to meet another man, 26, reportedly from Ohio, who was at a Bloomington motel.
Indiana Code does not constitute forced man-on-man penetration as rape. According to the code, a forced sexual act is considered rape only when a person knowingly or intentionally has sexual intercourse with someone of the opposite sex.
The victim, 23, reported to the Bloomington Police Department Saturday morning he woke up in his east-Bloomington apartment some time before 9:20 a.m. to a man straddling the front of his body, where penetration was made, Detective Sgt. John
Kovach said.
Investigators were able to locate the man the victim said is responsible for the reportedly forced act and has been cooperative with the active investigation.
The victim had a sexual assault kit performed at IU Health Bloomington Hospital, Kovach said. The victim also revealed to police the two had been drinking the night before.
The victim told police recalled waking up as the act was occurring and felt drowsy and unaware of what was happening, Kovach said.

I am new to AR's and I hope you guys can help me out. I have found a preowned colt AR-15 that I am thinking of purchasing. It is around 1994 production Colt competition HBar flat top with the 20"barrel and a 2nd gen Aries night vision scope. What should I know about this specific rifle/scope and what would be a good price to pay for them? Thank you for your help!
Need to know the time on the NV scope. Those things wear out.
He says it is very low hours since he has had it. He also was not aware if them wearing out. How long do the scopes last and what makes them wear out?
A NV scope can be compared to a light bulb, sorta, they just die..
I just went and looked at the AR and NV scope. They are both in excellent shape and there are 8-30 rd clips and 2-8 rd all colt, it has a soft carrying case, 300+ rounds ammo, cleaning kit, and the scope is a Aries MK 208 with hard water proof case. What would be a reasonable but good price to pay for this package.

The simple magic of the west coast

I got some film developed from a couple trips I've recently taken, the west coast has some real magic if you choose to see it. The earth is an amazing thing, and its the simple things that are all we need to make life worth living. Seems like nothing beats packing your car and taking a drive with your four legged companion and a camera.

Johnstons of Elgin Marled Cashmere Crop Cardigan Sweater (For Women)
Closeouts. A simple yet versatile style that layers beautifully, Johnstons of Elgin's crop cardigan sweater has a softly marled coloration that complements its sumptuous, touchable hand.
Average Rating based on 7 reviews 4.285714 0 5
Reviewed by Jimbo the biker from New York on Tuesday, September 3, 2013I bought this sweater for my petit girlfriend (5'2", 120) and it fits beautifully. She loves it. The cashmere is soft but substantial and woven tightly as good cashmere should be. She loves it and looks great.
Reviewed by IMHO10x from Palm Beach, Fl on Thursday, August 15, 2013I am petite, size XS, Euro size 36 or 38 and the XS fit perfectly. It hits exactly as shown in the photo , meant to be fitted rather than loose & slouch styled. I am not a cashmere expert but know enough to buy Scottish, English or Italian cashmere, which this sweater is respectively. In comparing this sweater to an Italian Cuccinelli brand, I find this sweater to be on par & of good quality. It is thick & tightly woven. So far no pilling either but I have only worn it once & carried it in my purse another time. It will be interesting to see how it washes. (I read to hand wash cashmere, not dry clean.) The design is on trend fashion-wise & very versatile going easily from jeans to casual chic to little black dress. I intend to take it on trips because it is so compact & diverse. For the STR deal flyer price I felt I invested wisely!
Reviewed by Walks about from California central coast on Saturday, June 22, 2013I was so disappointed in this sweater! Not only does it run extremely small (I normally wear a small, and I ordered a medium, but it was still way too small for me...), but the quality was low. It was extremely thin.
Reviewed by sma13 from New York, NY on Friday, June 7, 2013Sweater is cute, very good quality, nice color. I usually don't wear this color but it has a nice tone. It's more for petite size, I am100lbs and this feels fitted. Perfect for me.
Reviewed by lisa from hawaii on Thursday, April 11, 2013I bought this sweater for the color, a luscious purple, kind of heathered. Also for the quality of this brand, I have bought sweaters from them before and the quality is superb. Well-made, durable, classic styling.
The sizing on this item however was challenging. I usually buy Medium in this brand, but after reading the on-line reviews I ordered a Large. When it arrived it was quite small, especially in the arms which were very tight. (I am a slim person) Allover it was just too small, seemed like about 2 sizes off. I knew it was cropped, but that was not the problem. Just too tight.
I returned the Large, and ordered an Extra Large. It is really too big in the bust, shoulders, across the back and underarms but I loved the color so much I kept it --- it was really the only solution. I know that I will enjoy wearing it, it will just be a bit on the roomy side!
Verified Buyer Reviewed by the shopper from Los Angeles, CA on Monday, February 11, 2013Good quality. Beautiful color.
It is a simple little cardigan. It is as classic as a little black dress.
Reviewed by STP Shopper from Ohio on Thursday, January 31, 2013This is a beautifully made cardigan with tiny buttons and buttonholes--too many to count, but tasteful and a sign of high quality with ribbon behind the buttonholes. I weigh less than 110 and the XS fits me well. It's possible that some might find the sweater too fitted, so if you like clothes to fit a bit more loosely, keep this in mind. I bought the cardigan (a heathered purple) to wear with sleeveless summer dresses. It will not fit well over a winter top with long sleeves--having three-quarter length sleeves and fitting snuggly.

You were only about 2 or 3 weeks old here, i have to sunbathe you every morning, so you can get the free vitamin D from the unharmed morning sun. you were a bit yellow, as you have a very high bilirubin (that yellowness due to lack of red blood cells?).
I leave you for about half an hour, i know the doctor would suggest for only 15 minutes but you were so yellow. i closed your eyes with cotton as you cant look directly into the sun. you were sleeping here, not posing!

Sometimes it can feel like I've lost touch with my pre-Isla self, something I didn't want to do before I had her. Don't get me wrong, I love my baby girl with everything I have and I love being a mummy, but sometimes I miss the woman I was and while I swore I'd never become one of those mums who can only talk about their babies, I admit I've already committed some mumsy sins. Having a baby changes your entire life and sometimes I feel like I've lost my identity.
So it's the little things that make me feel like my old self again that I really appreciate and I need to feel normal again. Here's just a few of them:
- Wearing nice, matching lingerie – I've never been a "throw on whatever bra and knickers I can find" person, I've always tried to make sure my underwear is a) matching and b) decent looking. My stint working in lingerie for M&S has made me very OCD about throwing out bras that are ill fitting and/or old and as soon as I stopped breastfeeding, I treated myself to some really nice bras and knickers from Rosie for Autograph lingerie. Now just something as simple as popping my silk Rosie underwear on makes me feel like a million dollars
- Putting on make up – as I've touched on before, I don't tend to wear much make up but when I do, I feel much less of a slummy mummy. I'm not one of those effortlessly polished mummies who leaves the house with a face full of perfect make up, most days just a quick swipe of tinted moisturiser and mascara is considered making an effort! But when I do get all dolled up, it makes me feel like a prebaby version of me again and I love doing my nails. These Maybelline ColourShow ones are my current favourite
- Enjoying me time with historical porn – relax, I'm not admitting to a fetish to a blue movie entitled 'The Dick-torians', I mean the tv show The Tudors! Hubs works away 2 days and nights a week so I make the most of these evenings as 'me time'. Once Isla is in bed at 7pm, I eat tea and then have a nice relaxing bath with bubbles and everything, then curl up in bed with one of my favourite box sets. The Tudors is my favourite, so I can drool over Henry Cavill without judgment!
- Going out with my child-free friends – I adore my mummy friends, they're amazing and supportive and I'd be lost without them. I'm also lucky enough to have some wonderful friends who don't have children and who have not only stayed in touch with us (it's shocking how many friends stop calling when you have a baby) but who have been incredibly supportive and helpful. I'm aware that constant baby talk is terribly dull for non parents, so going out with my friends who haven't had a baby gives me time to switch my baby brain off and give my mummy self a break.

In the last post I mentioned my luck in winning a gold medal for my saison. I want to share my recipe and some thoughts on why I think it turned out as well as it did.
First the recipe:
|Breiss US Two Row Malt
|1.60 kg
|Weyermann Light Munich
|0.80 kg
|Flaked Wheat
|0.70 kg
|Malted Rye
|0.45 kg
|Lyle's Golden Syrup
|0.14 kg
|Hops and Spices
|Boil Time
|East Kent Goldings
|25 g
|60 min
|East Kent Goldings
|20 g
|15 min
|East Kent Goldings
|10 g
|5 min
|15 g
|0 min
|Original Gravity
|15.3º P (1.062)
|Final Gravity
|1.3º P (1.005)
|Apparent Attenuation
|Estimated ABV
So what makes this beer special? First of all , it turned out to be an absolutely beautiful beer. It is a deep gold, and crystal clear with a rocky white head. But beauty is only skin deep: what completes the picture? I think there are at least four things which could be responsible: the grain bill, the spices, the water, and the yeast.
The use of malted rye in the grain bill seems to add a lot of flavor interest. The rough, grainy flavor of the rye is unique. Of course, the sugar in the golden syrup helps assure that this beer fully ferments and achieves the dry and crisp character it should have. The two row malt, munich malt, and flaked wheat all play a role, but I suspect the levels of these ingredients could vary without substantially impacting the nature of the beer.
The spices consist of coriander, which is a wonderful, flowery spice. I feel the character of the coriander plays really well against the grainy character of the rye. That being said, I find many that many people I share my homebrews with fail to detect coriander when it is present. I can only assume this is because most people are not familiar with the flavor of coriander. Maybe I notice it just because I know it is in there.
Water is the next ingredient of interest. I have never visited Wollonia, the home of the saison, but the water is described as minerally and high in carbonates – definitely the opposite of Pittsburgh. Therefore I added generous amounts of calcium sulfate (gypsum) and calcium chloride to my water, along with some salt, baking soda and a pinch of calcium carbonate (chalk). Of course I did this carefully in order to maintain the appropriate residual alkalinity. Recent study on my part suggests that the water profile I constructed is not entirely accurate, but I still think it brought life to this beer.
Lastly, the yeast. I love Wyeast 3711, it consistently achieves a final gravity of 1.005 or lower (it has even hit 1.000 !). The result is a beer with a clean and crisp taste, and not in any way sweet and cloying. It really sets the stage and lets the coriander and rye flavors shine, while providing a clean palate that leaves you wanting more.
I love saisons. For me, this recipe is as good as any I have tasted. And I am satisfied with that.

Compliments of the new season to every single person who reads my blog. I hope you entered the New Year in good health. Nothing is as important to me as my health. I make sure each year I get my medicals done just to make sure everything is functioning as it should be. I hope you do the same; your health is your wealth.
I had taken a break from blogging to enjoy the rest of 2015 and make priceless memories. You have no idea how beautiful it is to end the year on a great note. It felt good. I remember compiling a list of places I wanted to visit in 2015 but never got to go to two of the destinations BUT this year I will definitely make my way to Malawi within the first half of the year without fail!
New year resolutions? I didn't make any this year. What I do have are goals. Let me elaborate for those who don't know the difference between a goal and a resolution:
A goal is a desired result that a person wishes to achieve. It is a target that a person wants to reach
A resolution is a decision or determination; a resolve: to make a firm resolution to do something.
From my own experiences in the past I have failed dismally at keeping my resolutions and that is the main reason I stopped making them.
My goals for 2016 include:
- Making moves to write for a website which I have had my eyes on for months now.
- Turning my fitness obsession into a money making machine.
- Traveling, my goals would be incomplete without this.
- Learning new skills pertaining my line of work.
- Going back to school and beefing up my CV.
I will obviously have more goals as we get into the year but these are my goals for the first half of 2016. Wish me luck!
Lastly, 2016 going forward I WILL PUT MYSELF FIRST, MY HAPPINESS, MY INTERESTS, MY ASPIRATIONS because life is too short to not make things happen for yourself!
Here's to a fruitful new year.

"Sandy Kress, Bush's unpaid education advisor, was puzzled. Bush was always on time. But on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, he seemed to want to linger, talking about politics and mutual friends in Texas." [1] So wrote Ronald Kessler in his account of the Bush presidency, A Matter of Character. The time in question was around 8:30 a.m., a quarter of an hour after American Airlines Flight 11 had broken communication with air traffic controllers. The 9/11 attacks were now underway. While many odd things took place that morning, Kress's observation highlights another curious detail: On September 11, 2001, President Bush was running late.
This would be of little significance were it not for the fact that this behavior was completely out of character for the president. Bush is not known for dawdling. For example, earlier in 2001, CNN's congressional correspondent Jonathan Karl talked of "Bush's reputation for being punctual." [2] According to David Frum, a former speechwriter for the president: "Bush is famous for his punctuality." [3] Sandy Kress has called him "a very punctual person." [4] According to the Washington Post: "Bush's staff, his friends, his family, his wife" all describe him as "an intensely disciplined and focused individual," who "puts a premium on punctuality." [5] The London Times stated it more bluntly: "There has probably never been a president, there may not have been a human being, who observes punctuality with the sort of fanaticism that President George W. Bush brings to every aspect of his life." [6] That was not, however, the case the morning of September 11.

My 93-year-old mother has turned into the nursing home floozy.
My 93yr old mother was the most judgmental person all my life. She has always been the first one to find fault or criticize others. She is now the nursing home "floozy" and I get the calls from the staff at the nursing home on inappropriate situations they pull her out of. They tell me it is not her fault she doesn't understand. Is anyone else dealing with this? Dementia is just the gift that keeps on giving. She is the "sweet" one all the staff just loves. I believe they call this Showtimers. I love the staff and they are my heroes in this journey I am on with my mother. I deal with most of this with a sense of humor, but this new side is a bit disturbing. While visiting her yesterday I sat with her and her friends at their table and she kept blowing kisses to all the men as they rolled into the dinning area, and they all blew kisses back at her. Oh my gosh I had a hard time keeping a straight face and not burst out laughing. All the staff setting up lunch would walk by me and smile or wink at me. I do so love the staff! I would appreciate any advise on dealing with this new behavior. I get the best advice from all of you!!!

My mother also thinks all the men at the Sr Center "want her". She tells me they talk to her and flirt with her--but I know mom, she's loving it. She waits by the front door for the mailman. She coyly motions him to the house. (This is so disgusting to watch, for me) and he brings her packages, etc to the door, even tho she's on a rural route. She hands him one Hershey's kiss and practically forces the poor guy to give her a kiss on the cheek. If it's a replacement mailman she gets mad.
Mind you, she 87 yo, bald, stooped over, reeks of old urine and is not "adorable" by any means. Not being unkind, just stating the truth. She thinks he's sweet on her. She thinks any man who shows her any attention wants to sleep with her.
I'm done telling her that this behavior is embarrassing and completely inappropriate. It doesn't "stick" and if the mailman wasn't such a softy, he'd deliver the mail and not allow himself to be mauled.
Humor is the best way to handle it. My mother is quite the coquette. We just let her be.
So, yes, a lot of us are dealing with this.
As for the mailman, I remember reading of cases where it was the mailman who noticed something was wrong at a house, like the mail wasn't picked up for a couple of days, thus called 911. Inside was an elder who had fallen, or whatever. So in a way it is good that the mailman comes up to the house and gets his "kisses" :) Just another set of eyes and ears watching out for Mom.
I miss the mailman we had on our route. One time my sig other was trying to get up and out of his low slung two seater vehicle [I stopped riding in it years ago]... the mailman had to physically help him out..... and he remarked to sig other that's it time to trade that vehicle in for something more practical.
Last summer there was a poor soul at mom's memory card who's libido was out of control and she had it bad for one resident to the point that the couch in the tv room was nicknamed the love pit - staff did nothing to stop it and it made unpleasant for everyone else
It's difficult to observe our parents being sensual/sexual. But that's how we got here!
The filter my Mother had that previously had her so concerned about her reputation, our reputation, everybody's reputation was out the window. My Mother was the Nursing Home floozy.
That stage passed. Then I missed the floozy.
My older sister has been this way all her life. She has always been quite eye-catching and used to attention and now that she is approaching 60 she seems to be getting desperate. You can't be anywhere where there are men and there she goes. Even when I phoned her the day I found my Mom in big time medical distress and asked her to come over. She flirted with the paramedics, she flirted with a neighbor of mine when we were outside my place discussing Mom's finances. Just a random man and I finally had to tell the guy to piss off cause she was just standing there lapping up the attention. "I grabbed her left hand, showed it to him and screamed, "she's married!"
So, one day if she ends up in a nursing home "look out everybody"

According to the latest reports 45% of UK households have pets. This presents landlords with a difficult dilemma: Should you allow pets into your rental properties?
For many landlords the default answer is 'no'. This leaves a large number of tenants facing great difficulties in finding a suitable property for themselves and their little friends. In reality, should the property lease allow it, pets do not have to be a complete no-go area. Especially as pet owners are more likely to pay higher rents and stay for longer periods in the property.
Here are some key pointers on how to ensure you tap safely into this market segment:
- Speak to the previous landlord to obtain references regarding the pets.
- Establish clearly in your tenancy agreement the type and number of pets you allow in the property.
- Ask for a higher deposit to cover potential damages.
- Add a clause to the agreement asking for the property to be professionally cleaned at the end of the tenancy, including carpets and outside areas.
- Conduct regular inspections.
- Ensure a through property inventory is prepared at the beginning of the tenancy. This should also cover all outside spaces.
Do you rent to tenants with pets? What is your experience? We would love to hear your thoughts. Please leave your comment.


text: When health IT became personal: My journey with breast cancer BY Leigh Burchell October 08, 2015 Two years ago this month, I underwent a mastectomy at the age of 40. It's ironic given that October is breast cancer awareness month, because for me, while cancer is always now semi-present in my mind, September is the month when the disease looms largest. That's because it's September when I go through the cadre of tests that are now a part of my annual experience, and it isn't until those are in the rear view mirror with an "all clear" that I can breathe again. I've worked in health IT for more than fifteen years, and thankfully, our family hadn't had much of an encounter with intensive health care before 2013, which meant that technology's role there was conceptual to me personally. Yes, I went to an OB practice that refused for nine years to go electronic, and it was annoying when my son's surgical record couldn't be shared with his pediatrician in 2008. Luckily, though, health has largely been our norm. Recently, though, health IT has been personalized for me in an entirely different way, and I understand it from a new perspective. Thankfully, unlike many people who speak about the challenges they're still encountering, my experience has largely been positive since becoming a breast cancer patient. First and most importantly, unlike many others who face a harder path, my cancer treatment experience did not include chemotherapy or radiation. If I had been diagnosed several decades ago, that would not have been the case – the standard protocol for everyone was a double mastectomy, removal of all armpit lymph nodes, radiation and chemo. Because I was fortunate enough to be diagnosed in 2013, however, I have already benefited from the precision medicine experience. That sneaky little tumor that caused so much upheaval for me and my family was sliced and diced for genomic testing (I do admit I get a little pleasure from that image), with the results dropped right into my electronic health record. The analysis of the tumor's genetic markers came back in such a positive frame that my doctor was able to recommend surgery followed only by hormonal treatment. That was a really good day. Now, in surveillance mode, I continue to think how lucky I am to be a patient in the electronic era. I connect with my care team via their new portal pretty easily, and my oncologist uses her system to pull up all kinds of research findings to facilitate our ongoing discussions about the best path forward. My most recent intersection with health IT was just last week. I logged in late at night to find results from my recent mammogram and MRI saying I am cleared for another six months. Unlike even two years ago when I had to wait, sick with worry, for several weeks for some of my results, I was able to return to peace of mind in just four days because of electronic access to those results. I requested they be sent to my primary care provider, and more importantly, I could remove the worry from my husband and children who know what September means, too. And I went back to sleeping well. You can imagine that I am hoping not to have any acute need for health IT any time in the near future. But if we do, I am most certainly grateful to have that option. 0 Comments Share this on… Leigh Burchell Leigh Burchell directs the Policy & Government Affairs function for Allscripts, including legislative advocacy and regulatory interpretation and comment.

text: Harmful Effects of Marijuana Topics: Cannabis, Psychology, Drug addiction Pages: 3 (1194 words) Published: December 9, 2012 Jon Stewart once said "Here's the point - you're looking at affirmative action, and you're looking at marijuana. You legalize marijuana, no need for quotas, because really, who's gonna wanna work?" Although Stewart's intent is to shed some laughter on this controversial subject, he brings up a valid point; if marijuana is legalized, how will the behavior of the population be altered? The mental health and social risks we take in regards to legalizing marijuana are much too large for our country to take at the point in time. Marijuana usage is known to impair the brain with the many chemicals it contains, and the psychological and social effects that develop over time could hinder the well being of a person who chooses to use it regularly, or there could even be a change in the nation's behavior as a whole. One's psychological health is very vital to a great quality of life; marijuana legalization could lead to an array of mental mishaps due to the initial rise in marijuana usage. The psychological effects that cannabis induces on a body would include cognitive impairment along with a decrease in psychomotor skills (Hall, Solowij, and Lemon 1). While these side effects might only be temporary, a prolonged use of marijuana could make these effects more chronic. This continual usage can even lead to a large range of psychotic disorders. The National Institute on Drug Abuse states that, "A number of studies have shown an association between chronic marijuana use and increased rates of anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia" (NIDA 2). If legalized, more people who originally would not have used marijuana in the first place might start using it, not knowing that their genetic makeup is more susceptible to developing a disorder such as the ones listed above. As a result, there would most likely be a sudden increase in psychological problems in people across the nation, as well as an increase in addictions. One might argue that marijuana is a less addictive drug than... Continue Reading Please join StudyMode to read the full document

Short of Stuff.
Disaster! I'm making a pretty easy bag, but I fell short of the amount of fabric. Bit of a dilemma. I could pick up some more in town tomorrow, but I don't want to cut into the time I have spare. As a comprimise I shall prep the lining and interfacing (which I managed to get enough of). If there is time after that, there is another project on the go. Maybe running out of fabric is going to turn out for the best. It means that I'll see to the other projects I have on the go, and finally see a reduction in the queue.

I don`t consider myself as a person who overthinks, but I do think a lot.Lately I`ve been asking myself the question "What if I had commited suicide?" I don`t think I`m the person to ever do that, but what if? What if I had decided to end my own life some years ago?
I want to ask people what their first thought would be if someone told them I`m dead. How would they react, what would they think, what would they feel? But maybe they`d think I`m going crazy, even though I believe most of us think of these things. What would everything be like if I was gone? Who would miss me? Would anyone even miss me? If so, why would they?
Some time ago someone said to me "You were bullied for decades. If I was you, I would`ve commited suicide long ago." That got me thinking. Do people expect me to not exist anymore or are people proud of me and look up to me? I don`t know, guys. I just wonder. I wonder where I would`ve been right now if I wasn`t here. I feel sorry for the families and the friends who`ve lost someone like that, but I wonder what it would`ve been like for my family or friends.
Many people have killed themselves, because they couldn`t handle it anymore. I`m happy that I`m alive, but then I feel sorry for those who`re not. I wish I could save all of them and bring them back. Here I am, soon graduating, I`m all alive and I feel so strong, yet so weak. Maybe that person was right. Maybe she would`ve commited suicide long ago, because feeling lonely for so many years isn`t something everyone can bear. And here I am. I`m alive, I have so many dreams and so many goals. What if I had killed all of that some years ago?
Is it sad of me to think that my existence is weird? Isn`t it weird how I managed to find my way through that shit? It`s weird how I made it. How I survived everything. I find it odd to be alive today. Believe it or not. I can`t believe I made through everything. Only I know what I`ve felt every day, only I know what I`ve had to go through, only I know what I`ve got with me in my baggage. It makes me proud, but also makes me want to cry.
I don`t even know where I wanted to go with this. Let`s just say these are what they call late night thoughts.

Neston 146ao
Hyde 149-3
HYDE produced their most complete display of the season to defeat mid-table Neston with ruthless efficiency.
The visitors won the toss and elected to bat, but Rudrah Singh and Tom Young took the new ball and made it hard for the Neston batsmen to score as they found an impeccable line and length.
Both bowlers picked up an early wicket before Neston staged a mini-recovery as Lancashire all-rounder Simon Marshall batted positively.
However, the pivotal moment saw the introduction of Dan Woods into the attack as he bowled Marshall for 39, having seen the Lancashire man hit two large sixes from his first two balls.
Despite former Sussex overseas player Jason Voros playing well for 36, the other Neston batsman had no answer to some outstanding bowling from Young and Leigh Heazlewood as they were dismissed for a below-par 146.
Hyde's reply started disastrously with Chris Pilkington being adjudged LBW to Marshall from the first ball of the innings.
When Rob Brierley followed in identical fashion a few overs later, Hyde were in trouble at 24-2 which became 54-3 when Dave Collier dismissed James Duffy with a ball that should have been hit out of Tameside.
At this point, Singh joined skipper David Fitzsimmons as they went on the offensive against Marshall's spin, both batsmen finished unbeaten on 52 as Hyde completed victory with 18 overs remaining.
Hyde enjoyed cup successes last week when they disposed of Heaton Mersey in the League 20/20 Fred Graham Trophy.
They recovered from 44-5 at the halfway stage to post 157-7, Mark Makin scoring 58, before bowling out Heaton Mersey for 98.
