This is our experience as well. Something seems to have leveled out and I don’t think it’s our gas usage. We haven’t done anything different than previous years.

Any info on why it's a fricking YEAR? Seems like that should maybe buy him an hour, or maybe a day or two max. But a fricking year??

Yeah- about an hour. Use the successful IV to pump him up with saline. His veins will be easier to find and the second line can be used started.

Despite all of the publicity, these day care centers are popping up everywhere.

After seeing this story I looked up this place. It’s not a daycare. It’s a nonprofit that provides food/meals to people who take care of other children in their home. I had no idea that was a thing. (Providing free food to them, not home based daycares).

Anyone know of a fencing supplier around Baton Rouge that would have components for a “custom” aluminum fence panel? Our backyard has a commercial style fence by Specrail, a national fence supply company which went out of business a few years ago. I need one panel (less than a panel, really) and one post to finish the fence after some work that extended the fence line by about four feet. I have found several places online where I could order the post, rails, and pickets that would be the closest match to our fence and I could assemble to match the rail spacing on our fence. (The rail spacing is the biggest issue with off the shelf panels- they are all a little different.). However, when I go to checkout, shipping is outrageous- like 2-300+ to ship one fence post, 3 rails, and some pickets. I assume it’s because they are used to shipping large quantities of material and use freight companies rather than retail shipping companies.

That leads me to ask- any companies anyone knows in the area when I might be able to purchase and pick up the materials?

Someone said it’s like his 5th degree. He has multiple advanced degrees.

Jellyfish. Don’t know how I missed them first time around. Discovered them a few years ago.

Out of the major sports, baseball is the one that is (imo) more mental than physical. In football and basketball the team can outphysical their opponents if there is a mental issue. In baseball, the physical is still important- you need to be able to hit the ball hard enough, run fast enough to beat the throw or to get to the ball to catch it, etc., but the mental is much more prominent in the game.

This year’s teams issues were primarily mental. You could see they had the talent to beat anyone at times, but it never clicked in a way that led to sustained success. Jay will flush this season and next year will be better.

None of those make sense. Districts should make geographical and cultural sense. These don’t. I’ve seen other maps drawn up in the past few days that make much more sense. No way Bogalusa and Monroe should be in the same district.

Why did you break it off with her multiple times, and then turn around and reconcile? Either there was something about her that a part of you knew wasn’t compatible with the marriage, there is something about you that you know isn’t right for marriage, or you have some fear of commitment. Any of these things could be something that you do t even have conscious awareness of, perhaps because you don’t allow yourself to have that awareness.

If you want to have a healthy future marriage with anyone, you first need to figure out what happened here. Perhaps some counseling would help you identify areas where you have growth opportunities. Maybe not necessary but it’s worth considering. Note- I’m talking about engaging in a process to improve yourself, not going to see someone because you have something wrong with you. Two different things.

Biggest piece of advice I can give you is to find somewhere that you can volunteer. Make it a cause that resonates with you. Even better if the volunteer activity involves other people who are volunteering. You are in a depressive state (not necessarily clinical depression, but with some similar characteristics). Depression causes people to focus on themselves and their problems. Volunteering forces you to get out of your own head for a bit. So go find somewhere to do something for someone else.

Get activity in. Doesn’t have to be working out at max capacity 5 days a week. Do more than you are doing now. If that means you start walking around your neighborhood after dinner then do that. I will say that lifting weights has been shown to have the highest level of effectiveness in helping depressed people feel better. Do with that what you will.

Cut back on your alcohol intake, eat balanced real food, not preservative laden easy food. Maintain a regular sleep schedule.

Do these things and you will start to feel better. Good luck.
