Hola larousse, we are also firm believers in Vitamin T.

I used that method to start labor both with the Princess and the Dervish. It was very effective, and provided lovely enough contractions that, when after several hours they bogged down a bit, the physicians were kind enough to provide pitocin to finish the job.

Who knows what would have happened if I had let the Princess carry on longer? She was already 9 pounds! Oh wait, she would have been in Mikey's league then. (I am not jealous. 11 pounds is humongous!)

Cinderella, you would have a fascinating discussion with Neaksis, or for that matter with any of us, about your present difficulties. Don't know if you've been on this thread long enough to see, but we share some of the same problems.

It's a trade-off, really. We have more kids, younger, and hers have additional abandonment issue from being adopted, but on the other hand we also still speak to each other. Between those extremes is a lot of common ground with you.

You twiddled your nipples? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> All I saw you do was playing in the snow and riding down the hill on the inner tubes. And watching me give Flard a haircut before we went to the hospital. When did you have a chance, and in such a public format, too? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> All I can say is, you're way sneakier than I EVER gave you credit for!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

You didn't KNOW???????? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> You were the one who told me about it.

Neak, Tortillas, Tacos, totadas, Tamales... Where I live in Mexico City I can count at least 20 blocks in a row with one form or another of vitamin T.

I didn't know that method was for real, is it wide known, used?

Larousse -

I hope the women at the funeral didn't have name cards, and dates of the relationship.

So you live in Mexico City, how exciting!

I have a lot of friends in Tehuantepec, Oaxaca - way down toward the border with Guatemala. In fact we keep the phone lines busy between here and there. Luckily I have a plan that lets me talk 4 hours a month free.

I have even learned some Zapotec words, but less than 100.

Yummy, you're making me hungry.

I have no idea how well-known that type of stimulation is. Maybe Mom can chime in when she wakes up again.

Unfortunately I didn't know about it the first time around, and my experience with castor oil is probably TMI even for this open and informative thread. Way, way TMI. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Believer, Tehuantepec is one of the most interesting areas of Mexico. I love their culture, their music and clothes. You may know Lila Downs, an American of Mexican mother. She sings in Spanish, English and Mixteco.

I think some of the ex's were concerned with the distribution of his assets. One even approuch to me to tell me that he had left me a country house we had built when we were together. when she told me I already knew he had ereased me from his will. Another one who didn't know I was getting nothing was visibly upset with me. What nobody knew is that during the last years he had tried to get money from me so to keep me in his will. I tought at the time that was very mean considering I didn;t have anything when I left him altough I worked for him, in a professional sense, all the while.

Neak, I would be hungry too just thinking in the vitamin T but the flu took my hunger away.

Yep neak...........way TMI !! ...lol

I still say the knife was ok if not a bit wierd ..you dont feel anything but when I got cut with our first child - DD - it seemed as if I got very cold and when they lifted her out it was strange!! I felt so empty..lol

You should have seen HER hair do .... thick as .... She has her Dads hair ......... I vaguely remember his thick hair ...gets shaved most times now or a number 1 <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

DD

Found photo of DD one day old ...notice the finger on her left hand? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Daddy's Princess alright!!!! lol <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Hi larousse

nice to 'meet' you .. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm just trying to get Mikey to sleep ...SOMEONE let him suck on some chocolate tonight didn't they DD????????????

EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW smelly man.

TMI I think for you guys ..lol <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

She looks just like Mikey! With dark hair! And dark eyes! If he were a girl! Ok, she looks almost like Mikey. I can see a strong family resemblance.

That was so interesting about your case with those poor, sad children. The system over here has such holes in it also, and many good workers grow jaded over time from having their hands tied so often. Even so, most of them still try very hard and don't have much to work with. It was not your fault. Having seen our system first-hand, it's a wonder any kids get helped at all. There are probably a whole lot of children out there that you helped to save, and just never knew it.

Larousse, hope you feel better soon. The flu is nothing to sneeze at! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Larousse - So was that your only relationship with a man? You never married?

Neak

her eyes went blue as the the sky just like MIKEY. Happened in few days ..they were a deep hazel bluey colour first..though I'm told by my sis thats common to be a shade of blue as birth & chnage very soon after.

But now, her eyes & Mikeys..... samo samo.
[I swear they seem to darken though when shes mad..lol]


DS poor guy got my hazel .. though short red skirt says they are 'steamy' ...sickening blah ..shoo shoo you girl you.. stay away from my baby boy!!

Nope. I went into a crisis mood after he left Mexico. (He also visited Oaxaca by the way.) Loosing him made me gave a good and long look at what I was doing with my life and got some professional help. I had issues with suden changes of humor and passive agresiveness. When I posted here a year or more ago, I was in panic mood. I knew I was loosing him yet I could not control my self.

I left him go from my heart, stopped e.maling him in February. He contacted me in June-July to say hi, and then again in November. He's proof reader and helped me to translate a brother in law CV, very nicely althoug it was an urgent task. So for two days we contacted constantly and then nothing. At the end of November I sent him a birthday card. Everytime he wrote he said he was going to write more but he didn't. I let him really out of my heart by June I think.

He has his issues but I think I had mine, big ones and I'm reaching a place where I can say I could comunicate in a healthy way with a possible partner.

Just today I visited a site where hi has his profile. He had visited it the 23 of this month. I hadn't been in that page sice May. His info is the same. Weird.

MB has been my way to re learn to see relationship, to understand what I lived been so young living with a womaniser and to see love and marriage in a more healthier perspective.

Believer...haha I got it wrong.

I'm 38, near 39 <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I never married, I have had some relationships but never lived again with someone. I have also spent years without a partner.

The one I wrote about in my last post is the one I wrote about in some of my first posts here.

Larouse, welcome. My family loves Vitamin T also. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

**Warning: From this point on, this post makes no logical progression. Just mind wanderings**

I survived the day at work.

Talked to my mom today. Called her in the afternoon. She said she had a dud of a Christmas. Sister's family had a dud of a Christmas. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

I told her we had a great one. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Then, I told her we wanted to come over sometime and do Christmasy something w/ her but children wouldn't be home till Sunday. I don't know if daughter can do it but I hope she can.

So, we shall see....

My children are as Caucasian looking as can be but my great-great-grandfather was allegedly black, my uncle has been married to a Vietnamese woman for 30+ years, my children's stepmother is Hispanic, my son goes to a Catholic school, and he plays soccer at a local Jewish club. We think that Chinese, Mexican, and Italian foods should be basic food groups. Do you think Jesse Jackson would let us in the Rainbow Coalition?

And speaking of foods, last night I ate dinner at a Turkish restaurant. I had the chicken stew. It was one of the best bowls of soup I have ever eaten at a restaurant.

So, let's see, I got antibiotics for my sinus infection today! $40 for the prescription. ONE dose. That's right. One dose. Like a Z-pak only it was a single 2 gram dose of the same stuff - in a bottle and you drink it. So, I can have dinner in 45 minutes.

After dinner, I think I will take a nice hot bath and have a hot toddy and go to bed.

Neak, in case you or Neaksis is interested, I can be found on AIM, where my name is cinderellaje0726

I don't know about Jesse, but I'd stay away from Michael! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

P.S. I just read Be Careful Who You Love by Diane Dimond. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> Myohmy. Yes. Not that the concept was news, but there was so much beneath the surface that never made it into the trial. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Don't worry about Michael....MIKEY, on the other hand, is probably harmless - unless toxic vapors count.

TNL, do you mean Micael Jackson's trial? Or, did I miss something about Jesse, since he was exposed as a wh?

<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I'd answer you, but it's hard to talk when I'm holding my breath!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

The book was about Michael Jackson's trial. I think Jesse Jackson simply IS a trial, at least to his B&B&B&B&B&B&B&B&B&B&BS, since the mother of his OC was not the first girlfriend he'd had. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

How come people can't just go get some therapy and stop doing supid things? It would be a better world if they would. Maybe someone should tell Jesse and Michael.....and all the rest of the idgits.

The wourld wud b wadfoil.
