about
I'm a mother of 2 boys who are 13 months apart. Talk about a handful. I'm a wife to the best husband I could have ever dreamed of.I'm one of the very blessed.
I have Bipolar 1 Disorder. I hate taking all these medications and always going to doctors appointments, but life is too short to let mental illness get the better of me.
Often times life is a challenge, and nobody knows that better than me. I wake up wondering if this is going to be a day my illness overpowers my meds, and either sends me flying like a bat out of hell, or leaves me laying on the couch like a wet dish rag.
Thank all that is good in the world that I have an excellent support system at home.
I'm one of the lucky ones.
I'm honest, and that can either be a perk or s flaw. Depends on how you choose to look at it.
I like to see it as a perk, because it's better to hear the truth than to be told candy coated bullshit.
advice
I want the corvette coupe 2007 when I turn 16 but i might get the 2008 version because my b-day is in december so does anyone know a place around oklahoma where they sell those kind of cars? and where can i get spinning rims from? how much are spinning rims? do i have to put them in any special way?
Not to sound like a jerk, but do you realize the price of a brand new Corvette Coupe? Lets talk about $50,000-$60,000. Yah. Big money, honey. (Ok, so you may get lucky and find a good deal and get it for $45,000...)
And you are fretting over the price of spinner wheels? Those may run around $1000 or better for the good ones. I had 100 spoke wheels on my Camaro and they were $1500 wheels.
As for where you will find a Corvette, it matters not what state you live in, you will have to get it from a GM dealership if it is a brand new one you seek.
I just hope you realize that a Corvette is a toy- a very fast, powerful, pricey toy, and sometimes toys can be dangerous. This is one of those toys.
I strongly advise you get some serious driving experience under your belt before you decide to purchase one.
OKay I'm getting a new car I'm 15 and I really want a nice one so could you please give me some ways to get money? I need a lot in a about 9 months. My estimate is around 40,000 but prolly not as much cus my parents will pay for some of it. But anyway I can please help me out!
Honestly? $40,000 in 9 months time is $4445 per month you need to earn and save. Yah, that's quite a bit of dough. Especially for a 15 year old.
Not trying to discourage you at all, but I just want you to be sure that you understand that you have set a very high goal for yourself, considering that, sadly, it is hard for some one of your age to get a job that will earn you that much money in a month's time. (I'm nearly 30 and lucky to bring home half that much in a month, myself, just FYI)
Like I said, I'm not out to discourage you at all. I hope you achieve your goal. But you will have to do more than just odd jobs to reach the amount of money for the car.
You may want to apply at your local restaurants, department stores, or grocery stores. If you live near a mall, apply for work in the shops. If you live in a rural community with farms, you can see about working as a farm hand.
Be sure that when you go in to inquire about applying for a job that you ask up front if they hire teens below the age of 16. OSHA child labor laws are very strict on how many hours you can work if you are under 16, so they may not hire from that age group. If they don't, then there is no sense in wasting your time at that place.
I would see about doing a few odd jobs on the side as well, for a little extra cash. Summer is afoot, people like to pay kids to mow their yards, possibly even washing/waxing their cars.
I hope I didn't sound like a lot of doom and gloom, but I want to be sure that you know exactly what you are getting yourself into by trying to save that much money in that short of a period of time. You are going to have to work very, very hard.
I hope your parents are planning to help you with a fair chunk of that money, and I do hope you get the car you seek.
Good luck to you!
i have had windows messenger on my computer since i had it but for about a year or so i havent been able to sign into it because it says : ".NET messenger service fialed bacuase the sign in name does not exist." but it does! so i have to use webmessenger instead which i hate. i also cant sign into msn explorer or my email on internet explorer so i have to use mozilla firefox instead.
please can someone help me? i really need windows messenger!!
thanks so0o00o0o0o0oo much to anyone who can help me!
I don't know if this is something you've already looked into, or if it is even what you are looking for, but here is a link to get technical support for your MSN Messenger.
It's called Windows Live Messenger Email Support:

this is a little long. OK so yesterday my ex ended up being in like all of my classes, idk what happened. He dropped out so i thought that maybe he was gone, i was wayyyy relieved. but it turns out that he is NOT gone, he decided to come back. you don't understand, we dated for like a couple days, we weren't even a LITTLE bit serious. he makes me feel so uncomfortble bcause he's always telling people that we had sex and we DIDN'T. he always tries to talk to me in class/walk me to class and it makes me so uncomfortable, i'm actually physically disgusted by him + dont know why i ever liked him. Please help. should i change my classes? i dont even know if thats an optionm its so late in the year now. i need him to leave me alone but he wont take a hint, i have even told him straight up NEVER FUCKING TALK TO ME AGAIN. BUT HE STILL DOES. pleasepleaseplease help, idk what to do.
First off, don't let him run you off from your classes. Why should you have to change your schedule because he don't get it? The answer is, you shouldn't have to. He should leave you alone, period. You have told him to do so, and you meant it. He needs to respect that or face the consequences of his actions.
This is how it is- if you tell him to leave you alone, to stop talking to you and trying to walk you to your class, etc. and he doesn't, then that is called HARASSMENT, my dear. Explain that to him, and if he continues, I would strongly advise you ask your parents what your next step should be. I promise, your parents want to protect you from this kind of guy- if he doesn't stop, tell them the whole story of what's happening and they will help you get it sorted out.
There is no reason on this green Earth that you should have to be made to feel uncomfortable or be harassed by ANYBODY, especially to the point where you are thinking about changing all of your classes, no matter if it is late or early in the school year. That is just wrong, period. Don't put up with that crap- you don't have to.
Like I said, (because I can't stress it enough) talk to your parents about what is going on. This is a serious problem, and something needs to be done to put a stop to it. He has no right to treat you that way or make you feel that way.
i get tiny spiders in my dressers. which is why i dont open them or anything anymore. because spiders fall on me whenever i put up a shirt.
so if i put moth balls in it... would it kill spiders or is that just for larave?
P.U. mothballs! They will make your clothes smell bad...
Here is a link to a website for natural spider control. Some of these are quite interesting. I fear spiders, so I think I will try some myself. Maybe you can find one of these natural repellents that can work for you?

there is this girl i really really really like and she is in a differenet school from me, but she always tells me that I am really cute and funny and stuff. But whenever I ask her to go to the movies with me she always seems to be busy. I dont know if she doesnt like me that much, or if she is telling the truth. How can I find this out, and if it is that she doesnt like me that much, what can I do to get her to like me more,, but I am limited because I hardly get to see her in person, in fact i havnt in about 2 months, which is really pissing me off.. So respond asap, thank you
Honestly? The best way to find out if she is blowing you off or actually busy is to ask her. I don't know her, so I can't tell you what's going on in her head.
Next time you invite her to see a movie with you and she says she has something else going on, you could be blunt and ask "Hey, should I keep trying or am I wasting my time, here? Please be honest." That's about the quickest way to discover the truth.
Or, you could ask her in the beat around the bush way "So when would be a good time for you to accompany to the movies if you are busy on such and such night?"
In my opinion, I don't see why she would be blowing you off if she is always telling you that she thinks you are cute and funny. She may truly be busy- or possibly you're timing may just be bad.
Or maybe she doesn't know you well enough to feel comfortable going on a date? If that is the case, she may be saying she is busy so you don't think she is uninterested. I don't know how well you know each other...
As for getting her to like you more, you can't just do that all simple-like. You have to spend time talking to her and such so that she can get to know you better. You don't see her much, but you can surely give her a call to chit-chat.
So she thinks you're a funny guy, correct? Big bonus for you- she already enjoys your personality. Go from there and let her get to know the rest of your personality as well.

Well, my problem is that about 5-7 guys have asked me out since, like, october, and when you think about it, that's a lot. in december, i asked out the guy i liked, but he didn't really "like me like that." naturally, i was kinda upset, and it's been distressing me even more ever since i've been getting asked out, because i'm still trying to impress the guy who wouldn't go out with me, but it doesn't seem to be working, and i want to make sure he really is never ever going to really like me before i go out with anyone again. i'm also worried that i'll never get over it.
Help!
Don't spend your life on the side lines just waiting on one person. You could be waiting forever- why take that risk?
Honestly? The guy said he didn't like you like that, he surely meant it. You can try all you want, but you can't change the way some one feels.
Don't worry, you'll get over it in time. Have patience with yourself and date some one else when you feel comfortable with your feelings. Meaning: don't waste some poor guy's time if you are going to go out with him while thinking of this other guy.
Okay my long time friend Steve told me he had feelings for me and I told him so did I. He recently moved to Florida and has a girlfriend now back here where I am. He told me about having feelings yesterday and now today he was being really mean to me and talking about how much he loves his girlfriend. I dont know what to do...Please help me! I really like him.
Sounds to me as though he may be confused about his feelings. Give him time to figure out what he really wants.
does anyone know any good trance songs? I don't care if theyu're new or super old, just as long as they're good. thanks
I don't know exactly what you are looking for in a trance song, but how about "White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane? "Inagodadivida" by Iron Butterfly? They are both oldies but goodies.
I have a big problem wit my best friend and my mom. My mom hates her. Shes a good person she just does bad stuff like smoke drink fight ect.But also we have kind of split apart a little because she gets so jealous of everyone im with.. my mom doesn want me hanging out with her neither does my boyfriend. but i dunno what to do. i feel bad. should i just lie to my mom and tell her im going out somewhere else when im hanging out with her. what should i do? Also its getting really she gets so mad at me when i hang out with my bf she is like u never have time for me is always him. it annoying me now. I love my boyfriend and i want to spend time with him. pleasee helppp me.
If this girl is your best friend, you need to talk to her about your feelings. She needs to give you the respect to listen to you and try to understand where you are coming from. Explain to her that it isn't your intention to leave her out, but when a girl gets a boyfriend, she has to spend quality time with him in order for the relationship to grow. Sadly, if she doesn't want to understand this, then she isn't really your friend to begin with. A true friend respects you and your feelings.
I can see where your mother is coming from. She is only trying to protect you from all of the bad things your friend does, weather you are choosing to do those bad things with her or not. (Hopefully not.)
I had a friend that got me into trouble in highschool. (She was my best friend, too.) My mom said I couldn't hang out with her. She didn't disallow me to be friends with her, I just wasn't allowed to hang out with her outside of school.
Don't defy your mother. Don't go hang out with the girl and then lie about it. When we lie, it almost always comes back to bite us in the ass. You don't want that! Your mom is just looking out for your best interests.
As for wanting to spend that time with your boyfriend- absolutely do that. Never let your friends dictate how much time you spend with him. That is for you and him to decide.
i have had 1.5 boyfriends so far (im 13/F) and both have treated me like a princess. they have both been so nice to me and told me i was nice and everything. with the first boy, i dont think i liked him, i liked the attention. at the time i thought i really liked him though. but it didnt work out. now, im talking with this other boy and hes being so nice to me. we hung out so much on sunday and i really started to like him, and that was when we were hanging out just as friends. now, i really really like him, and we cant stop texting eachother. but now im wondering if i like him or just the compliments or the idea of having a boyfriend. whenever he says anything im a little unsure if he really means it because of my last boyfriend who was all talk and didnt mean a thing he said to me. my mom wont let me go out with this boy because our parents are friends and she dosent wan t it to be awkward when we brake up, and ive told him this. he still tells me he loves me. i love him back. i know its like puppy love not real love. how do i getover this feeling that he is just talking? how do i act around him because i like him so much but i cant go out with him? how can i show him that i like him? what can i say to him? and do you think hes just saying this stuff or that he realy means it? dont be afraid to be harsh i know i deserve a slap in the face right now but thanx!
I wouldn't say you need a slap on the face, but I would say that you need to realize that it is most likely infatuation you are feeling rather than love.
I think he already knows that you like him, with the constant texting and all. Don't fret there.
How do you act around him? Act how you normally act around him. He likes you for who you are already. The same goes for what you say to him.
Do I think he's just talking? I don't know the guy, so I can't give you a certain answer on this. I would say that he cares about you, for certain.
I do agree with your mom on the awkwardness that would be there if you were to break up. I don't know how old you are, but the best advice I can give you on this is to have patience. Wait until you are older before you decide to go out with each other. That way you know your feelings for each other are more than just infatuation, giving your relationship a better chance to grow rather than die out.
i've had a crush on this one guy for pretty much 6 years. it's so weird, we BOTH liked each other, and we both knew it, but neither of us ever said anything. we dated other people. it sounds so stupid, but i'm infatuated with this kid. we've only spoken twice. anyway, i haven't seen him in like a year. i'm going to a party tomorrow night and he's going to be there. he's single. what am i supposed to do? this is badly worded but i am stressed and sleepy :(
If you both like each other and you are both single, then there would be absolutely no problem with you asking the guy out. This is a crush that has gone on for 6 years?
About time to act on it, if I do say so myself.
P.S. Don't drink, as advised before me. You don't need alcohol to express your feelings. In fact, saying how you feel while drinking only tends to make people take you less seriously. You don't want that.
ok, i put my bra in the wash and it got out into the dryer and when it came out part of the bra is like caving in a little. i tried putting it back in the wash w/out putting it in the dryer but it really didn't help, is my bra ruined? or is there something i can do to fix it?
I honestly don't know that there is any way to fix it. The padding is likely distorted and shrunk from the dryer.
On all of your bras with molded cups (such as push-ups or padded) always wash on the gentle cycle and hang dry.
OKay, my mother just bought a car and is paying insurence for it. I have my G2 but do not pay any insurence. If I would like to drive her car or my boyfriends parents car will I get in trouble for not having my own insurence even though the car itself is insured?
The insurance on the car should insure any licenced driver and passenger in the vehicle.
If you feel sick to your stomach because you ate too much and you stick your finger down your throat to induce vomitting is it still considered an eating disorder? I've done this a couple of times, but never on a constant basis, just like...once every two months or so. It only stops my stomach from hurting, I'm not trying to lose weight or anything..is it still bad?
I don't think from your description that you have an eating disorder by making yourself vomit.
My advice? Invest in some Alka-Seltzer; it isn't as hard on your body and helps a lot with indigestion.
Lucy's mother and father was having a party for their grandson. Lucy and Eileen
(Lucys cousin) were talking and Eileen said to Lucy "You are a size 8, right", and
Lucy said "Yes." And then Eileen said "I THOUGHT YOU WERE A SIZE 8 and
the only reason why I am asking is because I am cleaning out my closet and I
couldn't remember if you said you are a size 8 or 10." Lucy was upset at the
question so Lucy told her friends the next day what Eileen said but all of Lucy’s
friends told Lucy that Lucy’s cousin Eileen never thought Lucy is a higher than a
size 8, all that Lucy’scousin was doing was confirming Lucy is a size 8. Do you agree
with Lucys friends that (1) Eileen does not think Lucy is higher than a size 8; (2)
and all Eileen was doing was just confirming that Lucy is a size 8. KEEP IN MIND
A MONTH LATER LUCY, LUCYS MOTHER, EILEEN AND EILEENS
MOTHER WERE TALKING AND EILEEN SAID LUCY IS SMALLER IN
CLOTHES THEM MY MOM. EILEENS MOM TAKES A SIZE 10
1) I don't think Eileen thinks Lucy is higher than a size 8.
2) I do think she was just confirming.
Eileen surely just wanted to make sure she was giving Lucy the right size of clothes. It seems that she assumed that Lucy was a size 8, but if she was wrong, Lucy may have been offended.
Think of it this way: If Lucy was really a size 10, and Eileen gave her size 8 clothes, Lucy may have felt that Eileen was saying she is overweight. So she played it safe, and decided to make sure that Lucy was a size 8 as she assumed she was.
Lucy shouldn't fret. I don't think that Eileen asked her in order to make her feel bad.
my basketball shoes smell, what should i put in them to make them smell better?
Try putting baking soda in your socks when you wear them. Baking soda is an excellent and cheap way to absorb odors.

No need to rate me, because I can't answer your question.
ok im 14/f me && my boyfriend had sex 2-3 days before my period. well my period normally lasts 5-7 days. I started my period saturday and it like stopped today (tuesday). It was a heavier period though. i kno it may b too early ad stuff but if i miss my next period or get some symptoms could i be??
im like so scared any help PLEASE!!
THANX!!! :-)
Don't worry until you COMPLETELY miss a period and it becomes 2 weeks late. I say 2 weeks, because you are 14, and teens don't have regular periods to begin with, as a general rule.
Next time, use a condom. :)
Okay, I applied to work at this camp called Camp Wonderland, and it's a place where children and adults who have mental and physical disabilities. If I get hired, I need to find a way to raise money for the five hour drive to get there and back twice. For my car, a full tank of gas is 35 bucks. (145 dollars) And there is a week where we'll have to pay 150 dollars to be able to go out of state. So somehow I need to raise about 300 dollars. What businesses would be good to ask for money? What fundraisers will be good to raise money? If I get this job, I will need the money by May 10th.
A bake sale is a good fundraiser.
Be sure to advertise your fundraiser with fliers and such, whatever you choose to do. Say what your fundraiser is, when it is, and why you are doing it, so that people know what's going on.
