    Really Freaky Tornado Videos

    So scary! I grew up in CT and most of my family still lives up that way. My dad is a truck driver and drove through Springfield about 15 minutes after the tornadoes touched down. I am so sorry for the people that are living with the aftermath of these storms!

    Losing weight after baby (a bit of a brag)

    I don't post too often, but I had to for this... That is AMAZING! I hope I can drop the weight like you have! I (so far) have gained 45-50 pounds and I am only 30 weeks! I have to lose the weight and get myself back in shape for the Army but I know it's gonna be hard. You should be so proud of...

    Oh baby!

    Ditto to what everyone said about the ultrasounds not being entirely accurate. Of course, that being said, I'm hoping they've been accurate with me because I have been measuring exactly where I'm supposed to be each time (I had extra US's because I'm an idiot and fell down the stairs). I'm only...

    What brought you to TCS?

    I could not get Petunia to accept pepper. Turns out, I did the intros all wrong! I kind of hung around after that and even though i don't post often, i am usually on every day or every few days

    Anyone else have a troubled teen?

    I think you mean the Challenge Acadamy. I think there is financial help for it but I am not sure.

    Thinking about adding a new kitty

    8-10 weeks and 2-3 months are about the same age. Kittens are a handful but they are fun!

    Question of the Day: thurs. Jan.20

    I drive a 2011 Kia Sorento. I love it, but my dream car is 1 of the new Camaro's. I absolutely love the new body design! With a baby on the way, a bf, his daughter, and a lab puppy it's really not feasible right now though.

    I'm insane!!!

    I am so excited for you, Linda! I tend to agree that you are making this easier by adopting 2 kittens. They'll play with each other and not torment Abby as much. that it's less stressful than you are expecting!

    Weight Watchers

    I tried WW but I had a lot better luck with Sparkpeople.com-- and sparkpeople is free! I did WW for about 6 months. I am going to have to lose all of this baby weight quickly after it's born and I will go back to sparkpeople. We used to have a group on sparkpeople from the cat site, but it kind...

    Gas for the car is up again.

    $3.14/gallon here at the cheaper stations! I spent $50 to fill my car up the other day when it was completely empty.

    Car questions

    I absolutely LOVE my 2011 Kia Sorento! Gas mileage isn't the greatest (avg 18-19mpg), but I would guess that the Sportage would be much better. I was rearended in my Sorento a month after I got it and I never felt a thing. My insurance went down $60/month from my Subaru too. I love this CUV!

    I am so horrible with MY own secrets....

    Thanks everyone! This definately was not planned lol. I have never even tried to get pregnant before (and didn't try all that hard not to become pregnant). I am about 6 weeks or so. Not very far along yet at all! I was visiting family last week so wasn't on here .

    I am so horrible with MY own secrets....

    I haven't been around much because life has taken an unexpected turn for me... I found out last week that I am pregnant! I have been told multiple times that it wouldn't happen and obviously the MD's and NP were wrong lol. It's been an extremely busy year for me... I bought a house, joined the...

    Food hunt..opinions wanted.

    I have Lexi on wellness. She is a 7 month old lab with allergy issues and Wellness seems to be the only kind that really works for her. Her coat is soft, she usually has firm but not hard poops (with normal stressors- she has diarrhea right now because she was at my friends house all weekend...

    Anyone have a Pug?

    I absolutely loved my Pug!! He was very bubbly and had no fear of anything. He was an amazing little guy! As many people pointed out, being brachycephalic makes them poor choices as a walking buddy. Ollie liked to take walks but couldn't handle much more than a mile and that was pushing it. They...

    Missing Chynna

    This just struck a chord with me, Linda. I haven't been on here as much as I used to be and missed that you lost her. I am so sorry for your loss and everyone else is right-- it hasn't really been all that long since you lost her and you will still have times that the grief will hit you hard. If...

    Vibes for Me, Please. (Female Related Issues, You've Been Warned!)

    My first pap at the age of 22 was abnormal and i never had a normal 1 until I was 30 years old. Multiple procedures, colpo's, and watching it... it's an awful feeling! If you want to talk, PM me. I talk to people about it all the time so I have no problem talking to you too.

    Do you love where you live?

    I love, love, love my house! I just bought it 1.5 months ago and it is the perfect size for me, the cats LOVE the stairs, and the backyard is perfect for the puppy. I live in town and close to everything, including work. The only thing that would make my life better would be a new job, but hey...
