Comment on Co-sleeping: People do it but just don’t talk about it. Dangerous or natural? by Jane

I think we all initially have those concerns. And unless you are an incredibly deep sleeper that rolls around alot, I think you’ll find that you’re quite in tune with your baby and their movements. Being concerned only means you want to be the best mommy you can…so you’ll be great!

I don’t have children of my own yet, and have wondered about this. It sounds so cozy but I’m scared I would roll over and smother the baby, or push it out of the bed. I guess I’ll have to do my research.

Comment on My Horrendous Habit: Picking at my Feet by Me Too :-(

P.S., I take Wellbutrin because it is the only anti-depressant that does not have a negative interaction with my pain meds. Also, it is the only one that has the least side effects…other than making OCD girls pick their feet more.

I have been doing the same thing and sorry, Jane, mine is probably worse than yours. (You can probably see my email so you’re welcome to email directly.) I’m taking Wellbutrin because I had a really bad accident about eighteen months ago and I injured my back badly and I also have something called ankylosing spondylitis, or AS, which is an auto-immune arthritic disease (a type of genetic rheumatoid arthritis) so I was prescribed pain meds and Wellbutrin to help combat depression. If I do not take Wellbutrin then the picking improves, but then I lapse into a fog and sleeping depression so I take the Wellbutrin. I have read that OCD and this kind of disorder is related to chemicals in the brain and I believe it and in fact, the manufacturer of Wellbutrin warns that certain persons should not take Wellbutrin such as those with certain OCD issues, such as anorexia, bulimia, eating disorders, etc. Well, I have suffered from anorexia in the past (which as all anorexics will tell you, be they thin or fat, you never really recover from it because all food is associated with guilt) and all I can figure is that I now have this foot picking disorder instead of anorexia? My feet are so bad that they bleed non-stop. It is horrible. I rip my toenails out. I rip them into the quick. I rip the skin off in big strips. I’m finally to the point that I am going to ask my doctor to prescribe something called clomipramine which is what my pharmacist recommended when I confessed to her and told her I needed help and knowing that a psychiatrist would only prescribe a drug I asked her to cut to the chase and just tell me the drug which she said is the ONLY drug for such issues and is clomipramine. I have an appointment next week and I will ask my physician for it and if I do indeed get a prescription for it I will take it and report back here to all of you to tell you if it helped or not. I think I have it worse than most — probably all — of you because I am leaving bloody footprints daily and you’re right, I cannot walk because of pain. So I wish you all the best and I’ll be back to fill you in. God bless.

Comment on Words with Friends: Bitchy not a word?!?! I beg to differ. by Grannytyjac

Grannytyjac — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 20:42:09 +0000

Totally agree with you! I too was amazed at the words that are not accepted and words that are. But I’m still addicted to the game. Came across your web site because a friend played the word Jane. You website name tickled me. I’m from the generation of Dick and Jane readers.

[...] This is not really all that surprising to my kids… remember how they often hear me snoring during karate class? And, whenever they start reading to me at night or when I read to them, it takes maybe two pages before I start to pass out. Plus, I’m still exhausted from the stomach virus and cleaning the townhouse. [...]

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 08:07:55 +0000

[...] Would u believe that Dick was plagued so badly with the stomach virus that he’s having problems walking? Apparently it really did a number on his ass (A condition that we have dubbed in our family as KOONTITIS. Pronounced “koohn-tie-tus”. “Koon” means butt in Persian.) and he’s walking like a gimpy-gimp, similar to when he had that third ball and teased him about having elephantitis. [...]

Comment on LANDLORDS BEWARE: Craigslist scam targeting landlords. by Hawaii Landlord

Hawaii Landlord — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:38:45 +0000

No Way!!! I have gotten these exact same emails. Thank God someone had told me it sounds like a scam because now I searched for it and found the exact same emails. They gave way too much info….they were from SD. Down to the last word, it was an epic email, but it was straight up copied and pasted because aside from a few details, it was exactly the same!

Jane,

just found out from our children’s librarian that the toddler area is being updated and that we are awaiting some new manipulatives & soft toys. We’ll have them soon and we aren’t getting rid of it – only making it fresher!

thanks again
