Displaying 0 To 0 Of 0 Comments Great News! Everyone have a great evening, going to spend some quality time with hubby and dog, who is crying at the back door to be let in! Take care everyone, was good seeing ya’ll Peace » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:59 pm @bit – payed for it the next, thought I was in better shape! » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:35 pm Bet he gets a kick out of “Farts” too…. » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:24 pm “once upon a time, normal” Sad that we have veered so far from basic caring and humanity. Last week when we had the big snow storm, I was out front shoveling, (30″), when I finished, I went two doors down to my neighbors, who were also out trying to clear their driveway, to help them because they looked like they were having a hard time of it. They seemed to be in their late 60’s, early 70’s, not very friendly, I always wave hello and they just stare at me, but I went over anyway…they were actually shocked that I wanted to help them! Made me think how isolated we all have become and how the sense of community that we had as kids is not there anymore. » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:20 pm Thanks Cher, couldn’t remember her name, but still remember her face. Same scenerio happens every once and a while in NYC since then, depends on the neighborhood…then the papers run with the Kitty Genovese story and shame the people who didn’t help the victim, then Rev. Al Sharpton holds a march, things calm down till the next time…when are we every going to change. » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:08 pm Boom, good to see you too, I hit the vote down thingy by accident trying to reply to you…sorry! In my town when you call 911 the fire department are notified simultaneously with the police and they always seem to get there first…and since the fire house is just around the corner from my house, response time would have been a matter of minutes. Edit: Getting rusty should post more often » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 5:02 pm Hey boom, I’d let him in, call 911 and then perform fist aid to stop the bleeding, with that amount of blood loss he wouldn’t be strong enough to hurt anyone…like Cher, big dog, along with a big husband, but would have done it anyway even if I was alone. Sad story, reminds me of the same scenerio that happened in the late 60’s in NYC, a young women who was attacked knocked on all her neighbors doors, screaming for help and no one opened the door, they found her dead the next morning… » Posted By BigDogMom On January 19, 2011 @ 4:34 pm bito, was just saying to my husband last night that the President should start using Executive Orders more often to get things through…wierd, do you think my house is bugged? 🙂 » Posted By BigDogMom On January 18, 2011 @ 10:23 am I saw that, couldn’t be more true of a statement…but I do like Robinson’s comparison to Eva Peron, I can visualize Sarah on some balcony in Alaska, arms outstretched, singing, “Don’t cry for me…” (With a oversized “bump-it” bringing her hair to new prom queen heights and her face overly made up to hide her fading looks) » Posted By BigDogMom On January 18, 2011 @ 7:46 am Eugene Robinson: “In the spirit of civil discourse, I’d like to humbly suggest that Sarah Palin please consider being quiet for a while. Perhaps a great while… The way Palin portrayed herself as not only a popular champion but also a martyr reminded me – not for the first time – of Eva Peron. If she chooses this unpromising route to higher political office, I suggest she find a suitable balcony from which to deliver her next address to the nation. Or perhaps – solely in the interest of civil discourse – that there be no next address.” http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/01/17/AR2011011703883.html » Posted By BigDogMom On January 18, 2011 @ 7:08 am You know I just might try that…especially since he’s one of my husbands clients and they also fish together! Thanks for the tip! Gotta run, time to make dinner, baked oven fried chicken with Cornflake crust! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 4:15 pm Javez, I keep asking my doctor for it, but he keeps saying to wait, it’s not high enough yet. I see him in Jan., to be retested, I am hoping this time he’ll put me on it…the thing that I can’t stand about this is my itchy feet at night and really dry skin, I itch all over, it drives me crazy! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 3:47 pm It is sad to see the number of kids today with weight problems, I just want to run up and smack the parent. A lot has to do with the food we have these days in our stores, they are cheap and easy to prepare, something every parents wants. Unfortunately, most of these foods are filled with high fructose corn syrup and other un-godly things, that make the body become addicted to them. The more you eat the more you want them…. Nothing like seeing not so little Johnny, who is only 3 ft. tall and already 100 lbs., take a tantrum in the cereal aisle, because he needs his fix a Captain Crunch! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 3:42 pm It could be that the parent is placating the child with food, or using food a an incentive to have the child behave in a certain way…when food is used a a means to an end, then it looses it’s true meaning and creates an abnormal relationship for the child with food. » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 3:29 pm Javaz, it had Hashimoto’s disease for the last two years…can’t tell you how tired I get at times. My TSA is at 4.5, not high enough for my doctor to prescribe Synthroid yet…but it’s coming I know it. » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 3:20 pm You may be better off eating like me, 6 to 8 small meals a day, it’s actually better for you than no food for a period of time, then a big meal all at once..it sends your body into shock and it can’t metabolize it fast enough, especially if the meal is in the evening. I’ve stayed the same weight, slim, most of my life until two years ago, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, the slow deterioration of your thyroid gland, my metabolism really slowed down, and I have put on 15 lbs., up from a size 8 to a 12…shocker for me, now I make sure I walk even faster and longer than I ever did before….the dog is exhausted by the time we are done! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 3:10 pm Sounds like you might have thyroid problems in your family, it’s hereditary, sometimes even if it’s off just a little it will cause weight problems, too much or too little. Hope all is well with you Pepe… » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 2:28 pm We have lost the art of doing many things, due to the fact that we have been told how we must be, how we are to do things and what we should buy in order to accomplish it… We live for bigger, better, faster, easier and less money! It’s the America way! This meme has been pounded into our head since the early 50’s when those Madmen figured out a way to get into our minds to make us buy their clients product. Unfortunately this way of life for us here in the US is slowly killing us…but hey, great for the bottom line! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 2:17 pm Thanks WTS for the great article…as a nation we have become “Super Sized”, why? Just because we can…”they” told us we can, “they” told us, “WE MUST!”, “Because we are the Greates Nation on the earth and under GOD”! And NO ONE is going to tell “US” what to do, what to eat, how to behave, gosh darnit! We have the biggest, bestest and fastest of everything, including our food! We are consumers, so we consume! So stick that in your hat and eat it! My husband and I just happed to watched the food network show, “Diners and Dives” this weekend, OMG I have never seen so much food piled onto a plate…and the owners where proud of it! No wonder we are a nation of fatties… As a person who has had low blood sugar all their adult life, food to me is my medicine. I look at food as a series of proteins and simple and complex carbohydrates that regulate my sugar levels, where over indulging sends me into severe downward crash and not eating causes tremors, slurred speech and stumbling around like a drunk. So I can’t quite grasp what all the hoopla is about when you stuff your face with that amount of food and find joy in it…I would be in a coma! Don’t get me wrong, I do love my cookies and cake, but understand that if I over indulge, I pay the price. Luckily the price is not so severe when I bake it myself, at least I know what I put in it, plus I never really like eating my own cooking anyway! As for roughing it, there is no need for it now, things are easier for us than in our parents or Grandparents time, we have become soft. We have lost the art of walking to where we want to go to, except in the inner Cities, we drive, because we all have cars now. We don’t mow our own lawns and if we do we use a powermower that is “self propelled”, not a push mower, or heck, have someone else do it for us. We don’t even clean our houses the way our ancestors did…who still sweeps their kitchen floor here or gets on their hands and knees to scrub it? Easier to wip out the ol’vacuum and SwifferWet! Forget the vacuum, that’s even too much work, get a rumba to do it for you! We are a nation of consumers and that we do, consume, too much so…. » Posted By BigDogMom On December 15, 2010 @ 1:29 pm Friday Music — Deck the Halls with Ho-Ho-Ho!! Everyone have a great evening, time to go walk the dog before the sun sets, we will be decorating our tree tonight while blasting Christmas tunes, enjoy everyone! Peace and good cheer to all of you!

» Posted By BigDogMom On December 17, 2010 @ 12:49 pm Khirad, you can borrow mine! » Posted By BigDogMom On December 17, 2010 @ 12:33 pm My mother used play this song over and over, from an old Christmas album we had, I finally found a CD of it after all these years…not big on the mega church thing, but they are a pretty good group Children go where I send thee:
» Posted By BigDogMom On December 17, 2010 @ 12:23 pm Cher, I posted that on my fbook page and everyone loved it…reminds me of my mother who was a faithful member of our churches choir and the Hallelujah chorus was performed every year, gives me the shivers everytime I hear it. » Posted By BigDogMom On December 17, 2010 @ 11:55 am One of my favorites, Dominic the Donkey…

Very cute, thanks for the smile! 🙂 » Posted By BigDogMom On January 28, 2010 @ 1:23 pm moongal/Khirad, first Good Morning from the east coast…Glad to see that at least one state and it’s voters are acting responsibly when it comes to State Income and Corporate Taxes and relieving the tax burden on the middle class. We here in CT have been trying to get something like at least talked about in the State Senate for some time now, every time a bill is presented and passed, it is vetoed by the Republican Governor…She is Bush light, don’t touch those Corporations, Hedge Fund Companies or Wealthy people, because they supposedly create jobs! Thank Dog she has decided not to run for re-election and we have very strong Dem candidates…them maybe we will have a tax structure along the lines of Oregon. Good for you guys, let’s hope this policy becomes viral throughout the country! » Posted By BigDogMom On January 27, 2010 @ 3:04 am javaz, my hair was so thick that I couldn’t use a brush, wide tooth comb only…thanks, feel good that I could do this, took 2 1/2 yrs, felt like I was a surrogate mom for someone carrying this hair around and I just gave birth for parents that couldn’t have a child. » Posted By BigDogMom On January 26, 2010 @ 3:22 pmComments Posted By BigDogMom
Sounds fattening, but it’s not!
