Hey there!! That story is hilarious! I'm so glad you caught him in time! That would have been a disaster for sure!I have the tendency towards car sickness (my son has inherited this also) so I have several incidents in my history. When I was small, we were travelling and I said "Mom, I don't feel good". My mom, who shares my tendency for motion sickness said "Pull over!" to my Dad. "She'll ...

Wow! I'm not really sure.... I suppose I would feel kind of obligated like you did too. But I think it's great! I have been to funerals where the hairstyle is not the one they wore and it just seems strange. People like to see their loved ones as they were one last time... How have you been, jo? Are the leaves changing colors yet in Tennesee? We're just rakin' away up here in Michigan!:)

No dissappointments for me yet today. But my hubby was supposed to meet someone to discuss some things today, and the guy never showed. He was in a new restaurant and said that at least the coffee was good!lol Did they cancel because of rain? We had a lot last night with some high winds. Our neighbor right across the street had a pine tree tip right over out of the ground!

Hey there, Cynthiann. I have not heard this and always have cut onions in my fridge. I put them on salads and in prepared foods nearly everyday! I have never been sick from them and probably will not stop this practice. I may be livin' life on the edge!LOL I am a firm believer in snopes.com.

Oh, I believe that our early days can have a big impact on us! There are babies who suffer in orphanages from having very little attention and I think that conversely the same must also be true. Purely my own theory. Haven't studied it or anything. It just seems like it makes logical sense.

No, I really don't. We grew up on them. We had homemade pizza every Saturday night when we visited my grandparents. And we ordered them quite frequently. My parents first had them as teenagers and my mom said they couldn't understand why anyone would want to eat a "tomato pie". That was until she had one, of course. My dad tells the story of being in the navy on leave in Boston and seeing s...

The first response above mine mentioned babies being more colicky when bre*st fed vs. bottle. Not sure about that. My nephew was extremely colicky and exclusively bre*st fed. But I did hear a study that said that colicky babies may be more sensitive to stimulus around them. They tend to grow up to be extremely intelligent individuals. This is very true for my nephew who is brilliant!

I'm not sure all colicky-ness (is that a word?lol) is exclusively gas. That study talked about sensitivity to stimulus (touch, sound, light etc.) And Dawn, I believe the intelligent part for you too!:)
