I'm always ready for spring but with the mild winter we've had so far, I'm worried about what March will bring.

Off-Topic / Re: CArpet or wood floors?

I think wood would be cleaner but here in Missouri, half the year is miserable going into the kitchen with the cold linoleum floors so I'm not sure I'd really like it.

We have a shelter cat named Princess and she certainly is.  She came to the shelter in a carrier with 8 kittens.  Some of those 8 have her markings but she's not much bigger than a kitten.  Probably 4 of the kittens were hers.  She's very independent and really not a lap cat but she is quite a character.  We originally started just fostering her because we weren't totally over losing our last cat but she quickly became ours or we became hers.  We also volunteer at the shelter and would highly recommend it.

We are big NCIS fans at my house.  My husband has been from the beginning and he got me hooked in the second season.

If you're talking about Social Security, I think the answer is that he won't get disability without substantiating medical records and not all things will qualify with records.

I agree that the GoDaddy commercial was the most tasteless and disgusting commercial - makes my skin crawl just thinking about it!  Can you imagine that a group of people came up with that idea and created that commercial and paid BIG BUCKS to get it on TV and got paid to do it.  I have several domains with GoDaddy and I'm thinking very seriously of transferring them.

It's gone up 30 cents in the past 2 weeks.  They keep talking about it on the news but never say why

I love Excel and it's really not that hard.  There are lots of things you can do with it and you didn't say just how you would be using it on the new job.  Google Docs is free and thei spreadsheets work about the same so you can practice without needing to buy Excel.  There's also Open Office which has spreadsheets and is free.  I believe Microsoft has free training on Excel.

Offers / Re: SO how do we get paid here daily

« on: February 05, 2013, 09:24:53 am »Message ID: 683439

Just so we're clear, you will not get paid daily here.  You must have a minimum of $25 in your account with $15 of that being offers (not bonus money like the forum posting bonus).  Once you reach cash out, you request it and are paid by the 20th of the month following your request.  On the other hand, you can earn money here every day from a variety of things.

I was rooting for the 49 niners and thought the game was very exciting after the lights came back on but the ravens really played a better game.

Generally, the ones that want to to pay something are offering an income opportunity that may or may not work for you.  I suspect what you're looking for is a job that you can work from home.  There are places like that but most require a landline and will test you before hiring.  Try searching for tele-commuting jobs.  Most will require 20-30 specific scheduled hours per week which they let you choose but once chosen, you must stick with them just like a regular job.

My favorite is Russell Stover milk chocolate inside milk chocolate followed by caramel inside milk chocolate and then milk chocolate inside dark chocolate.  Most of the time, I just buy a Hershey bar because it's easier to find.  We used to have a store that sold the individual candies but they closed

I wonder if they showed different commercials in different parts of the country because my husband and I were both looking for the Budweiser commercial and never saw it.  I liked the E-Trade but then, I'm a sucker for cute babies and that one was really cute.

I can see where it would be bad without a vehicle but you're very lucky to live during a time when you're not totally isolated.  I would think that it probably makes it pretty special when you do get to town
