Hi LInda

Your dad was right about the bathrooms here, they are GOOD. The funniest part

of the bathrooms here, is, the bathroom is exactly that, a place to go take a

bath or shower. In 90% of them there is no toilet. there is a separate room

for the toilet. This has its advantages. Germany in a lot of ways is way

ahead of the states. Education is one of them. So many kids in school in

America when they graduate, cannot even read on 6th grade level, this is

apalling. Schools go year round in Gemrany, and the classes are much harder,

and they know more about America than most Americans do. I find this funny.

Medical things is one that they are way behind on though. I had bronchitis

though at the time did no knowhat it was, but I had never been so sick in my

life, and I had to take a breathing treatment, in the states, you have the

disposable breathing attachment, here they still use the one where they have

to sterilize it.......they have a sheet on the beds int eh dr office, instead

of paper and I wonder if they change it after use. The drs, push all natural

meds first, plant meds, and only give antibiotics if you are near to die. Now

dental here is hands above the states. So wiht different things, Germany is

ahead in some and behind in others.

Elevators, I am nto sure what the problem is , but very few places have them.

The shoping centers have conveyor belts to stand on to go up or down (not

escalators) , some have escalators, and some have elevators. But for

businesses and all, apartment buildings, and such, if you find a elevator you

are lucky. My second apartent here, I had to climb three flights of stairs,

with my back injury, that got real old.

Someone had mentioned tha tGermany does nto do much imports, I wanted to

comment that they do import autos, and France is where they do most of the

importing of cars from. We drive a French car. Its the only thing (plus

pizza) that I like about France. (grin)

When you move to an apartment or house here, you have to bring your own sink

, cabinets, stove, fridge etc for the kitchen, your own cabinets and closets

for the rest of the house too. I find that funny. Sometimes, you might find

one where het kitchn is installed, but this is rare.

I wanted to share with you all something wonderful that happened to me last

night. I was on the Internet game site known as playsite, they have several

card games and board games, its a fun place, and takes my mind off the pain

for a while......some months ago, a young man I met on there, he is from

Singapore, and we played together a lot, and because you can also chat o

there, we got to know each other. He asked me one time if I believed in God.

I thought what a strange question from someone in Singapore, but I told him ,

yes, God lives i my heart. He then told me he had just gotten saved. I was so

proud of this young man. He said his parents were very much against him in

this, and would not go to his baptism. We lost touch as I had not been able

to play much til recently, and last night he was on, and after we played a

game, he asked me to let him pray for me. He said such a sweet prayer and he

really touched my heart, and I just ahd to share that with someone......Kitt

I was plauged with WC people too, for five years, they followed me, talked to

my friends and neighbors, spied on me......I had hurt my back at work, nad

the dr told me I would be disabled because of it, he could nto fix it. Took

me five years, but I got my settlement from the insurance co., let them

follow and spy, you will win out, it just might take a while. I hope you have

a good lawyer. Mine was wonderful. So much so that when I got my settlement,

he only took 10 percent for his fee, he was entitled to and I signed a paper

giving him 20 percent.

[Guest guest]

Carolyn, I agree with you. I took my cane with me, have nto been able to use

it much cause my hands were in such bad shape, but took it that day, and if I

had not had it, I would not havemade it up or down those stairs. I seen a

door by the stairs and thought it was an elevator, it was not, it was a

bathroom. (grin) Kitt

[Guest guest]

Dear Kitt, I understand how this man feels. When I was baptized last

June, the only one there from my family was my brother and his wife.

No one else understood how important that day was to me. It was hard,

but I was glad that I had a few close friends there with me to

celebrate.

That doesn't stop me, though, from living a life that honors God, and

having a relationship with Him. I hope and pray that someday my family

will all know and accept God's grace, and be saved.

Thanks for sharing that story with us, Kitt! It's amazing how God can

work through the Internet!!

Fondly, Anne in IL

Thanks for sharing Kitt. It's true what they say, God is everywhere.

Oh Kitt, what a nice friend to have, one who wanted to pray for you .

I hope that the doctor prescribes just the right medications to make

you feel better. Maybe after you feel physically better, you will be

more able to cope with living in a foreign land. We wish you well.

Yup, this year they got out May 31. Usually its around the 7 or 8 of

June. Then summer school started June 11 and was for 3 weeks. I think

they go back the 3rd week of August.

<Really??? Our regular school year just ended last Friday, June 22.

Summer school doesn't start till next week. Remarkable difference.

Cate,

This soap may be new in your store, but it's been used for at least 40 years

in Mexico (and I'm not telling my age, LOL). It is the soap my mother used

to handwash our laundry when I was a child living there and we didn't have a

washing machine. Zote is for delicates, Lirio (another laundry soap which

is brown/tan in color) is used for heavier cleaning as well as scrubbing

floors and walls. As a matter of fact, I have several bars of each in my

laundry room right now. I sometimes grate them up, mix with borax and

washing soda and use in my washing machine. They work great.

Irma

>>Just got something very new at the store for washing delicate laundry. It

is

called ZOTE soap. A very very large bar of soap that claims to be

specifically for laundry

.. Does anyone know of this soap.? I am guessing whatever is in it

must not have a lasting residue because it created very little lather and

rinsed out well. The paper states : Pink laundry soap with a minimum fatty

acid content of 66%.

TIA

You are entitled to accommodations only if your disability substantially

limits a major life activity ( like learning). Just having a disability

itself is not enough to qualify for the accommodations. So, a student with a

disability that is not experiencing adverse effects on their academic

progress because of that disability is a regular ed student.

If they were reg ed & just happened to have a disability that did not hinder

Dear Lynn,

For quite a number of years I have sent tapes of our experiences and the

experiences of others with FlaxSeed Oil in fighting cancer as we and they

have used it. It is not authentic or a recmmendation or advice. It is

simply testimonies.

I have sent them on request and have not charged anything. A cousin of mine

who lost his wife to cancer around ten years ago has financed the situation.

We have not charged lest someone thnk we were in it to make money. Our only

motive is a deep hatred of seeing people die of cancer when it isn't

necessary.

I was rather jubilant at the spectacular result in the case of the situation

of which I posted. Granted, this man is not yet well, but the response was

extraordinary.

I will not hesitate to send tapes as long as the money I have for that

purpose holds out. It is getting a little close to the end but I still can.

Send me your mailing address if you wish it and I will comply as long as I

can.

However, a website which has a transcript of the tape and a little more is

at www.beckwithfamily.com. It is information and testimonial only and not a

recommendation for treatment.

Feel free to use it any way you wish.

Cliff

This is a good group. I just started the BFL challenge on Monday.

I weigh 177. I am going to do two challenges. I wan't to be at my goal

weight of 140 by August 1st.

I have the same problem with my husband. I had a hard time just trying to

get him to take my before Pictures. He thinks that I am trying to get thin

so I can look good to other men. He doesn't realize how good our lives would

be if I felt good about myself. So I don't let him stand in my way. He will

see when I am finished.

Since he is home for dinner. I make a dinner that I can have as well has

him. I just do my portions. I also exercise at home because he doesn't want

me going to a gym so the other men can look at me. He did give me permission

to go to an all womens gym but the only one around here is pretty far away

plus if I were to go at night which is what I would have to do since he has

the car during the day there would be a problem with me not being home for

him and the children. So I have a bunch of workout tapes and some free

weights and I do my workouts before he gets home. So it would seem to him

that this is not interferring in his life.

If you would like a support buddy just let me know. Like I said also this is

a good support group.

I even wash it before heading to the next step in the recipe.

I haven't mentioned it before, but my cholesterol went from the 180s to 130s

in my first challenge. I can give up most anything, but I have bad meat

cravings and get testy when I don't have it for a few days. Meat is a

comfort food for me. So, I still had it three times a week in addition to my

free day where I really did it up. Maybe I would have done better my first

challenge if I had cut it, but I really really need it.

What do you guys think of pork loin sirloin roast? They had it for 89 cents

a pound today and cut into steaks. Can I eat it or do I have to save it for

a free day?

I don't know what the " sirloin roast " part means, but if it is just

pork tenderloin, it is great. I have a pork loin in my fridge and

its stats for 4 oz are

Would they not need lower dosages anyway?! I know that my anti-

convulsants are done by body weight, 20mg per kg, surely the kids

are smaller so they need less?! Or better still...give them none at

all!!! Maybe people need classes in common sense
