VolleymomDee

to help treat panic attacks
1:28 am
sprite

I am totally freaked out because I cannot find that "one single image" to start with!
1:28 am
sprite

did it help, Dee?
1:28 am

1:29 am
jillibus

The current issue of TIME has a fascinating feature on how the brain works, including what meditation does...
1:29 am
sprite

that is good to hear, it sounds so bizarre to me too
1:29 am
VolleymomDee

accompanied by an antidepressant med and counseling
1:29 am
sprite

oh, I prefer meditation!
1:30 am
VolleymomDee

she had tried meditation and some conventional counseling.... they didn't work
1:30 am
sprite

I don't want the medication, but I get counseling together with the EMDR. O dear, got to go... don't want to. Scared. Let me rephrase that in the style of Ghostbusters. Paralysed beyond the capacity for rational thought.
1:30 am
MVA

There was an answer in the New York Times Sunday Crossword, where the clue was "solve logical proofs while dining out" and the answer was "derive in restaurants"
2:43 am
Douglas

Hell hath no fury...
2:44 am
Angb

Did you figure the clue out Douglas?
2:46 am
Douglas

Indeed yes! It was part of a puzzle titled "Kareem of the Crop" where the themed answers were things where an extra vowel was added between some consonant and an r, to get a new expression
2:46 am
Angb

That's rather clever and fun by the sounds of it
2:47 am
Douglas

F'rinstance, one clue was "terse account of what happened at the raptor petting zoo?" and the answer was "Falcon caressed"
2:48 am
Douglas

I was thinking it would be lacerations and hospitalizations myself
2:48 am
Angb

That is great - or falcon creast?
2:49 am
jean1953

Robert Heinlein said...A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, **** a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

2:37 pm
stidmama

I was the same. two live babies and I was done. Couldn't deal with the thought of being sick for so long again (and then I got really awful post-partum depression with each pregnancy).
2:37 pm
joym999

if this game were scored so that you got points off every time you entered a word that didn't exist, we'd all get no points at all.
2:38 pm
flosey

lol joy, indeed
2:38 pm
Wolvie

good news firefly. :-)
2:38 pm
joym999

firefly -- have you tried acupuncture...it's proven to help a lot w/ morning sickness
2:38 pm
flosey

I was sick for 3 months with all 4 but after that it was a breeze
2:38 pm
stidmama

if the game were scored that way, my typos would keep me from getting points even if I was aiming for the right words (which I often don't....)
2:38 pm
firefly779

stid - my husband isn't too happy...he wanted four children, but i think he's starting to see how bad it is for me, and I too had some PP but not to the point of needing meds
2:39 pm
joym999

my partner is 8 months pregnant...she's been having acupuncture the whole time, and almost no morning sickness!

2:46 pm
stidmama

good for the oranges, hope the rest gets better fast! I gave up this year on trying to mollycoddle things. If they made it good, if they didn't then we need hardier plants. Ten years ago this was unusual weather, with it happening frequently now I think I just need to adjust my plantings.
2:47 pm

the hard one for me was en 5/12, means boredom
8:02 pm

i don't like the label "boy toys" or "girl toys". daniel has a dollhouse and baby doll to play with, all in the name of imaginative play.
8:02 pm
kangabrat

or indeed te5/12 or te 6/21....
8:02 pm
LoriP

Herein, that's silly, IMO. I have 4 kids, they all played with each genders toys. Non issue here. :)
8:03 pm
featherbee

btw, that wasn't directed at you personally labelling them herin, just that they get labelled at all
8:03 pm
herinfernallady

feather this couple was bitching that their 4 year old is gay? ffs i was a tom boy and got everything
8:03 pm
Katydid0615

sry kanga, don't have any of those yet
8:03 pm
LoriP

te = the te 4 + on***s make me cry
8:03 pm
stidmama

I think they have their heads up their ar**s, lady. orientation and gender expression are two separate issues, neither of which are necessarily obvious or set before puberty. Kids experiment. Besides, if it's okay for me to drive a truck and swing a hammer, it's okay for a little boy to have baby dolls.
8:03 pm
Jacula

I think children will naturally play with whatever toys they want to play with. If the toys they want are not available, they will make them, i.e. boys will use sticks etc., to make guns, if so inclined.
8:04 pm

8:06 pm

herin - a good rule, but, as I said, boys WILL make the guns if they want to, even if it's just pointing and index finger and saying 'bang!'
8:06 pm
LoriP

herein, we had that rule, until we realized the futility of it all. Straws, sticks, fingers, they all became guns....

ADHD - I was coming back fro my corner shop yesterday and crossinf the road as a group of mixed raace teens from the local school were crossing the other way. I heard one black youth laughingly call another black youth a 'black bastard'. Then I heard another youth, a white one, say, 'But you're black, so how can you say that?' 'I wanna know that, too!' said a Chinese lad. The first black youth smiled at them, and at me, since he'd seen me looking, 'It's a bro thing!' he said.
