Take a nap ! If you are taking meds for sinues or cold it's probably an antihsitamine which wires some people.
The hot flash type thing is prbly a fever breaking. Sleep.

take a nap!
or if you need to be awake, water does the trick for me. lots of water.
or any drink with electrolytes - coconut water, powerade ion etc
green tea? that will WAKE you up. or even iced tea. i can't have much caffeine so i stick to drinking lots of water first thing in am.

Well, a bushel is about 42 lbs. So that could be anywhere from 4 small apples/lb (168 apples) to 3 medium apples/lb (126 apples) or 2 large apples/lb (84 apples) to anything in between. My head is throbbing now since math is involved. Can I trade those btfe for some tylenol and a margarita? LMAO
Congrats! You are now the owner of 50 BTFE! Bringing your total to 100!

Thats lame, btw I want more towels!

the new position at work has me busy and I ont get to pop in as often Crying
I know the feeling. October will be super busy for me at work as well. I won't be in as often..though I will be sad...I'm not sure about the other chicks around here. They abuse me ya know..I can take it..but someone is going to have to take my place when I don't pop in as often..what if they can't take it..what if they snap...

OK seriously...I am so a drama queen. My point was..when your not here, we miss you.

The reasoning of these other parents makes no sense to me at all.

sorry there is an ad video first
Cheer words not good. Kicking child off team not good. Unfortunately she is the minority and nothing will ever come of this unless she is willing to really raise all heck.

SO MY F-ING STEPPER BROKE, I HAD A FEELING SOMEONE BOUGHT IT AND RETURNED THE DAMN ThING AND NOW I'm FREAKIN PISSED!!!

Sorry to scream had to get it out, now can I return it?
Yes you may return it, no you may not beat on the cashier if she says no. You must remain calm. Smilie

Down 5 lbs. for my official weigh in today Yahoo! Dance14 Dance13

I am pretty proud of myself Embarrassment Did not fudge on the eating plan this week....that was without a lot of formal exercise. But seeing as how I cannot sit still on this plan maybe that had something to do with it LMAO

Quote from LongTimeLurker7 :
Sorry, I didn't get to it last night. Things have been really busy here. Today is the town festival, and my neighbors are having a huge garage sale, so my kids had the brilliant idea of putting out a few tables with some of the stockpile and some other things we have been trying to sell, so we spent last night getting some things together and pricing them. I only plan on going till 2p, so I will do it tonight. I promise! (yes, they do dance.) *snip*
Our town 'festival' of sorts is today too! And it's raining; hopefully it will stop raining before parade time!!

ARGH!!! Half my bookmarks are gone. I'm so annoyed. I don't know why they disappeared or how to get them back. Frown Blowup ALL my favorite recipes, all my favorite blog links. I don't get it.

Quote from dreemedayze :
what's an iPad and my sister loves to read books. I mean worships them. Would that Kindle be good for her?
I've read that the Kindle is not worth it - that the books are not as varied and that they cost of the books is more than a hard copy (which doesn't make sense - you'd think an electronic version would be much cheaper.)

On another note - I love to read and I would personally miss the feel, smell, and experience of holding and turning pages in a physical book.

And is the Old Spice body wash now made with gold specks?
Faint It's just got to be a price mistake!!

Quote from qqueen :
Well, did a run today and darn $5 MQ beeped something to the affect of "Invalid amount, check coupon and then accept if ok"
[snip]

Totally does not make sense to me, so if anyone has any insight I would love to be enlightened.

Quote from Nikayla :
So weird about that message, I wonder why it does it on things more than the coupon, what a hot mess. I would love some enlightenment bulb as well if any body has some they would be willing to share.
Hmm... I seem to remember reading somewhere (CIC maybe??) a statement that basically said most coupons are not going to be valid if the coupon amount is for more than 75% of the value of the item, so if you use a $5 coupon on an item that is priced at $6 - maybe it will beep?

The only other thing I could imagine is that there are often $4.00 and $5.00 that are for multiple items (i.e. $4/2 Gillette, etc...) but are only coded for 1 item. *shrug*

Quote from Christine1227 :
I just hope they understand WTF I'm telling them at CS and not look at me like I have 3 heads.
I always find this an exercise in futility. laugh out loud They don't get it. But... hopefully you have a different experience!

Wave g'morning

For the cheer thing - it is disturbing to see that this kind of stuff is not considered inappropriate by a lot of folks. There are a lot of examples like this on the net though - some very shocking videos of kids dancing and imitating sex, etc - and all encoraged, egged on, and defended by "adults". The shocking thing is when I see a "daddy" who lets his little girl prances around on stage in what basically amounts to lingerie as she simulates sexual behaviours and suggestive dance moves, etc... and then defend it as the kids just enjoying themselves and having fun. There are some things I don't get. Whatever happened to parents trying to protect the innocence and purity of their children??

What I don't understand, though, is how it got far enough that the parents didn't say or do something earlier? Did they not attend any of the practices or watch their kid practice at home? She's only 6 - I couldn't leave my kid without my supervision like that. It surprises me that it got so far as to have video and such of the girl cheering. Weird.

I so *love* this baby... she's so stinking cute. Smilie

Oh, and my toddler says to me last night, "thank you for my best-friend sister Mavis..." Smilie Soooooo cute!!

She came over while i was nursing and puts her hand on my chest. I asked what she was doing, and she goes, "I'm helping Mavis." Then she goes, "can you take your hand off of Mavis's nani?" laugh out loud I guess they don't belong to me still...

Ank, I don't think it's just based on percentage of coupon value vs. price per item. I bought Prince of Persia on bluray yesterday.$26.99, coupon was $8, still beeped.

*shrug* Just a stab in the dark, I guess. Although, 75% of 26.99 would be around $20ish - so maybe that's why the $8 q didn't beep - it's not at/over 75%.

I'm also wondering if it's not a family confusion thing. Maybe if there's more than 1 item in the family or different "flavors" then they'll beep. Maybe it's kind of like Kmart's system - though why it's not happening on all MQ's is beyond me.

I've had problems with it. I can't print to pdf's anymore, and I can't seem to get the multi-admin to work either. Even when I make sure I'm logged out of all other users.

For me, no longer works on tq but does on mq. Has not worked since target.com coupons were down for the longest time. Must have been updating that little fix.

EEK!

i've only tried mqs, so my apologies dazzled for saying an outright yes.
T is really beginning to get me mad. it's petty and ugly to go so far out of their way to try to keep people from printing coupons and using them. and goes to prove, when they want to fix something, they seem to have no problem doing so.
