  1. I got a beautiful card from her as well. Wish things would get back to normal around here. Maybe things will get more relaxed now that the holdays are almost passed.
  2. Well the good thing about the pysch eval for me is that effective 01-01-08 my policy is no longer using Magellen for it's behavioral health, it will begin using Anthem Behavioral and I have heard alot better things about them.
  3. My honest opinion, and it's just that, my opinion, is that they are taking a break from this site due to the turn in atmosphere here.:think
  4. I changed my coverage from an HMO to Empire BCBS effective for 01-01-08 just for the sole purpose of this surgery being covered. I am super siked that 01-01-08 is almost here so I can finish getting everything needed. My dr. office also said they are great to work with. According to my dr you need letter from dr showing why surgery is med. nec., nutriotional counseling, pysch evaluation. I have already had my nutritional counseling (paid out of pocket) but the psych eval was so pricey I had to wait until coverage begins. I am calling 01-02-07 to get pre-cert for the psych eval. I am scheduled for eval on 01-08-07. Once completed, all paperwork can be turned in to BCBS for approval!!!! I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW YEAR!
  5. I hate to admit I am addicted. I love to sing and have always talked myself out of auditioning myself because it's all a popularity gig anyway and the AI people only put though those who are going to make their "ratings" better, not actually the people who sing the best. Anyway, I hate when the seasons begin with the auditions and people acting like idiots just so they can get a shot on TV. Once they actually get to Hollywood is when I get really interested and I am hooked until the end.
  6. Why is there always some dang person having to take a perfectly nice thread on this site and durning it into a damn fist fight? If you have an opinion about the topic, fine, but leave the name calling out of it. Maybe you need to go back to OH, because there are some of us who would like a little peace around this site for a while.
  7. Yeah Kitty! Love the new pics!
  8. I respect that but last time I checked I only had one "leader" and that is my management at my work and even that relationship is moving towards a friendship/colleague level, so please be considerate in who you are tagging. I agree as well but I feel your viewpoint is limited by a few threads and you have not seen all that has happened on this forum. I have seen others attacked on this forum and see people stand up for those people doing the attacking. It's only expected for someone to retaliate and then have a bad taste in their mouth towards others after that type of experience. You also cannot view private messages which would give you a more indepth perspective on certain situations. Then what does make the membership? I don't know you enough to form a full opinion, only what is in this thread, but what you view online isn't always a fair judgement of one's persona.
  9. You know. I find it very informative that you post a rant about Wasa bullying people when that's all you are doing yourself TommyO is attacking her. Then you want to say she has a posse and that you wish people would just name names, and you haven't even done that yourself. What people does this posse consist of? Anyone that has an opinion different than yours. Why would you call someone out and then NOT expect someone to stand up for themselves. Ugh! I will never understand men.
  10. Transformer, well said! Not trying to start anything TommyO, just keeping up a good debate without getting nasty, but if you find a bunch of women stating there opionions as bullying then you ranting about it could be conceived as whining. It's all in the eye of the beholder.
  11. HAHAHAHAHAHAH!:faint: Love it! Definately have to get a few of those to give out for Christmas. HAHAHAHAH!
  12. Good luck and congratulations.
  13. I agree. After seeing all the cute names out there, I am way jealous I wasn't more creative when I initially created my ID. I would like to know the answer to this as well.
  14. Yeah but then that would just lead to debate on what one feels actually defines bully. Not everyone has the same perspective.
  15. I'm sorry Denise. I thought your thread started with a great topic. Sorry it went out of control. :think Think of another and we'll try to play nice. :confused:
  16. Wheetsin, you rock! I haven't been hit yet, but the poor guy across the street who spends every waking moment outside working on something because he won some kind of settlement (lucky guy) and doesn't work (didn't I say lucky), anyway, back to topic but out a big production for Halloween. Bales and bales of hay. SEVERAL scarecrows, pumpkins, etc. Well, some punk took their truck and ran right through their yard. Seriously! Ran the who thing over and tore up their brand new sod. Some people just suck.:confused:
  17. I'm getting a tat that reads PP forever :confused:
  18. Hey LJM! That's my bday. Atleast my scatterbrain will remember to check on you! :confused:
  19. looks like this is a good as it gets MARINE CORPS INSIGNIA CHOCOLATE CANDY MOLD MOLDS - (eBay item 170179225128 end time Dec-23-07 19:33:37 PST) :confused:
  20. Shoot! I don't think I would take my chances. A (girl) friend at work told my DH and I one night whi we were at her DH and her's house that she enveyed the way I was great at what I did (we have the same type job) and that she thought I was great, blah blah. NE Way, after we leave my husband started in saying that she had the hots for me. JEALOUS with a capital J! Atleast I know he still loves me. :confused:

    My nutrisionist recommended Vitamist. It's a spray vitamin and you can google it and find their website.
  22. You look great. Keep up the good work!
  23. LJM, I am so happy for you. Bets of luck and a speedy recovery once you get it all done. Hopefully afterwards you will feel so great you will make goal in no time!
  24. BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Fee! Hilarious! :whoo:
  25. I completly agree and is it really that hard to get popcorn, sodas and drinks before the movie starts? I understand having to take your children to the restroom, but you knew someone was going to want something from concession before you came into the theatre.
