    I have a confession

    You secretly enjoy Pauly Shore films. You watch them while wearing multi-colored toe socks. P.S. I don't want the money...just wanted to take a guess.

    Make A Wish

    This is SUCH a touchy subject for me. I saw the title and my stomach flip flopped. When Austin was 12, the Make A Wish Foundation had a fundraiser at our local mall. My mother took Austin there and as soon as the people in charge heard that he had CF, they quickly rushed him over for a live...

    sick of people

    I was walking around Carmel one day and I saw the tallest guy I had ever seen! He had a t-shirt on that read, "I'M 7' 3" and NO, I DO NOT PLAY BASKETBALL" I had to laugh but I understood how tired he must have been, having to answer the same 2 questions over and over again. Hmmm...maybe on...

    CF and Marijuana

    <span style= " color: #0000ff; font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;">Someone once gave me their opinion on drugs and guns.  They felt that if drugs were legal, then there wouldn't be such a need for the massive amount of guns the drug dealers carry.  They also felt that crime would go down...

    CF and Marijuana

    Emily, Thanks for asking me to clear that up. You see, I love someone VERY much that has a problem with pot. It kills me to see him not be able to make it through the day without smoking atleast 3 or 4 times. He's 51 and works 2 dead end jobs. We've been apart 7 years and he's still my best...

    Getting out of bed.

    I've read that apples, not caffeine, are more efficient at waking you up in the morning. Is there a chance that the high carbohydrate from the apples might be keeping you from falling asleep as quickly as you'd like?

    saying goodbye to your dog

    Kate, I'm sorry you had to go through that <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> Chelsea had been an outside dog for the first few years of her life. It wasn't until we got her fixed, that we realized we liked having her in the house. She was so much happier! So, when...

    saying goodbye to your dog

    Kate *HUGS* I just wanted to tell you that after the kids came home and found out what had happened to Chelsea, we all sat and talked about her and did some crying. Within a 1/2 hour of telling them, my friends that had no idea Chelsea was even sick, showed up at the door...just to say hi. It...

    saying goodbye to your dog

    We lost our beloved chow chow, Chelsea, to cancer 3 years ago. It started with the loss of use in her back legs. Many vet visits, xrays and a biopsy later, she was gone. It was just a month long battle. We spent $1,500 trying to save her. Money was no object. They finally asked me to take...

    School and attendance.

    Austin is "home schooled" through a charter school. All his homework is done with computers, no books. He can't continue on to the next lesson unless all his answers are correct. This way, he really can't fail. All I have to do is print out some samples of his work once a month and print out...

    potty training the little ones

    Training was difficult for Austin because he couldn't stand up and pee like a "big boy" without losing control of his bowels too. We didn't know he had CF back then, and now we understand WHY it was happening. He just dealt with it by sitting down to pee and learning to wipe everytime, just...
