There are so many people and children who are less fortunate than me. I wish I could help them all. I feel guilty complaining about anything recently.

I am taking dinner to a friend tonight who was completely burned from head to toe at a bon-fire. Someone threw gasoline on it to make it burn bigger. The wind blew the gasoline on her as well as the fire. She has blisters as big as your fist and can not work at a time when they need money the most. I cried realizing the pain she was in. I have taken her 9 new outfits for her 18-month-old son so they can buy him toys.

I don\'t know why bad things happen to good people. I am truly blessed and so thankful.

Hi NWI, I am taking it from your initials that you are from Northwest Indiana? I am too! I sooo love your post, and it is so very true. It is wonderful to have a "cabin to get a fever in." Thank you for your post!

You guessed right. - NWI-MT

C.P. Are you close by?

Very close by - Cloverport

I am very close by!!! I live in the University town of "V" I was raised in B.G., and also lived in the next town over H. LOL! People are going to think we are nuts!

This is hilarious... - NWI-MT

Just moved from V. I couldn't figure out where B.G. was at first, but is it south of V. and east of C.P. and north of H. I'm still laughing which is exactly what I need after typing for 8 hours.

I am so glad I made your day - LOL! Yep, that is where B.G. is located.

Do you work for C.P.'s local hospital, or do you work for a service? I used to work for a local (very well known facility in V), where I was the transcription supervisor/coordinator, but the facility decided after my 14 years of employment with them, to outsource the department, and 4 of us lost our jobs. I now work for a service out of Florida. I love it! I started out as an "at-home" transcriptonist in 1989 and enjoyed it then. You could say, I went back to my "roots." LOL!

Nice to chat with another MT who lives close by. I work for a service. Been doing this since 1980. If you ever want to get together for a coffee, send me an Email.

Every year at Christmas my hubby is able to take two weeks off, which is wonderful for him but is beginning to stink for me. By the time his vacation is over I will be extremely resentful towards him and I hate that. In years past he has always done everything he can to help me out while I am working, cleaning the house, wrapping presents, picking up little odd and end gifts, etc. However, this year all he has done is lay on the couch and sleep after sleeping until 11:00 every ...

I mean - NONE of them? You want to vote out whoever's currently in office or in Congress, etc., but what good is it when they just pick MORE ignoramuses to take their place? That's what I see happening now. They're ALL part of the greater problem. They're ALL self-serving, greedy do-nothings. So imagine if the entire country held a "voting strike".

from this instead of pointing fingers and promoting hate speech and I mean everyone, Sarah Palin, the arizona tea party, the democrats who targeted people and districts on their maps, and all the irresponsible hate speech on this board today. It is ALL wrong, all repugnant, and it should all stop. However, we MUST recognize that a sick mind did the shooting and that shooter is responsible for his actions. Obviously this nutjob was on Pima County and even Homeland Security rada ...

When Donald J. Trump is elected, Mexico will pay for the wall. We have what they need and it is called jobs/economics. There are many ways that monies do not have to go back to Mexico and they know it why else would they be so worried about who gets elected President and invite the candidates to Mexico other than to court them and as far as Donald Trump not discussing the wall with Mexican president, he shouldn't have to at this point. Why put all your cards on the ta ...

If you went to your boss and told your boss that you had a great idea that would help the company but didn't have any details to give or numbers to share, what would your boss say? More than likely your boss would either tell you to stick it (depending on how nice your boss is) or he/she would tell you to come back when you have everything written out in detail with facts and numbers to support your idea. This is just something I thought about after reviewing our president's ...

I am not advocating this or any other side...just throwing this out there for some intellectual thoughts and nothing more...no right wing, left wing, tea baggers, etc. just found it interesting.

With regards to the BLM movement, where is the responsibility fall on the mothers and fathers teaching their children to respect authority. I mean if the police tell you to get down, you get down. If they tell you to keep your hands on the steering wheel you do so. It is the responsibility of mothers and fathers to teach the youth, I don't care what color you are, to obey the law. This is just the way it is. Alot of times, people jump the gun before all t ...

As a white American woman, I took great offense last night at Michelle Obama's speech. As it may have sounded like what some would like to hear, her making the statement that the White House was "built by slaves" is totally false. It was built by many nationalities, Scottish, Italians, etc., and yes also by black people. I am so tired of the political correctness when it comes to minorities. Eight years ago, I was making more financially and able to live w ...

I think how the media is constantly bashing Melania Trumps speech is appalling. Others have done this and nothing ever said and if it was it was not with all the hype that this is. Media needs to move on. This is a very accomplished person and I thought she did a wonderful job and by the way she speaks 5 languages, something that Michelle Obama cannot do and has an elegance that Michelle Obama does not. She would represent America well so give her some credit. ...

Where is Border Patrol in California or elsewhere, how many of these people and yes I mean Mexicans who are holding Mexican flags but yet burning American flags are illegal. If Clinton gets into office we are looking at another 4 years of Obama policies and where has that gotten you in 8 years. I am pretty sure I am going to have some comments made about my post, however, I see first hand the injustices to American Citizens versus illegals getting assistance when our own Americ ...

was hilarious. For all you talking about how bad the ACA was because it forced people to buy insurance, here's what might be in the republican plan and why: Auto-enrollment: This is an idea pushed by several senators -- one that would markedly improve any CBO score's coverage numbers. It could also play a huge roll in market stabilization, essentially forcing younger, healthier people into the marketplace and as such, lowering overall costs. But it's something tha ...

back to school, but not sure what to study so I have not even filled out an application for admission. I cannot get a job in MT regardless. I have 17 years of experience and still no job offers. I had a phone interview Monday and, even though they claimed they wanted to hire me, I have not heard anything since so that is a no go. Where to go from here? I do not want a job at a convenience or grocery store or a bank or a dollar store. Those are my only options. ...

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life, or a single cubit to his height? And why do you worry about clothes? See how th ...
