  1. Go to the Michael's Crafts website - when you "sign up" you get a 40% off coupon. I suppose you could repeatedly "sign up" and harvest multiple coupons.
  2. ^^^ That waterfall looks so cool. Definitely Maybe - your shots are excellent.
  3. "Son of a Witch" by Gregory Maguire.... sequel to "Wicked" it is awesome.
  4. Saskatchewan - so you were close. I've been in BC for a year.... I miss the prairies.
  5. image removed Home sweet home. I miss the openness
  6. I agree! I love sex, but when my boyfriend is out of town I miss the closeness of the other person in bed. I miss rolling over ans snuggling in. I love the nights when we just lie there and talk. Very affectionate and very comfortable.
  7. I have Mirena - I LOVE IT! Like RayKay, the insertion was a tad uncomfortable (ok... ALOT), but within a day I was fine. The first month was a lot of spotting, but my period has pretty much stopped now (3 months later). My gyno could not talk them up enough, she is totally in love with them. Apparently her and the three other female doctors at the clinic have them. I don't know the exact numbers, but she told me the "risks" were very low.
  8. Ok, I just looked at your pics in Caro's thread... I cannot believe the change in just two weeks! CRAZY!!! Congratulations, i hope everything goes well for you.
  9. What a cute baby belly! I love it!
  10. I'll add my couple of cents in the mix (just cause I can Firstly, I don't think you should exert any "control" over the situation. You have nothing to control. You have no "right" or no "claim" to this girl. She is a person, free to live her life and make her own choices. That being said, you do have a right to your own feelings and opinions. The only option you have is to share your feelings on the issue with her and let her make up her own mind on the issue. You should not pressure her into any decision, or force her to do something, that is not your place. Now, one of the major issues I see here (and where it seems like the problem is arising) is from this girl not telling her friends about her relationship. See, if she just said "I'm involved with someone" this whole mess would not exist. As to what to do or what happens next? Well that is all up to her, all you can do is tell her how you feel. Good luck.
  11. Hi Brooding Godess, I have been diagnosed with Bipolar type II. Currently I am on Paxil and Tegretol. I have tried topomax, seroquel, zyprexa and cylexa (in varying combinations). I have been on my current treatment for 8 months now and I love it. Paxil is an antidepressant and Tegretol is a "mood-stabilizer" - neither is a sedative or an anti-psychotic. My boyfriend is great at taking me instride. He has learned how to "read" subtle changes in me and has learned how to react. His best feature is that he just listens. When I start swinging, I start raving and racing. So he just sits on the phone and lets me get it out. He doesn't try to "fix" anything. The most important thing for me is having a great support system set up. Between Evan, my family and my psychiatrist , my team never lets me get too far off track.
  12. Kind of like some advice I read in another thread: Can it work? yes. Will it work? That is up to you. There are pros and cons in all relationships, you have to decide what you want and how you will make it work. I think you need to talk to your boyfriend, much of the burden of this relationship seems to fall on your shoulders - that can be a lot of wieght. It is not an impossible relationship, but it will take some effort. You have to decide if you want it or not. Like Arwen mentioned, you have to consider the future. Is this situation going to continue for a year? 5 years? Is there an end in sight or have you discussed living in the same city/country/region? LDR's seem to be more managable when there is an end in sight. Good luck!
  13. I can't add anymore than that. She has made a choice and you have to decide if that choice is compatible with you or not.
  14. scarew, you are about as far along as my sister and she sounds to be as uncomfortable as you are. this is her second and she felt pretty much the same the first go around. Hang in there! The best is yet to come (and i mean that in the postive way!).
