Where I am from you can't or well shouldn't say black or colored. It's African American. Maybe it's a regional thing but in some parts of my area you would get shot. Especially if you called someone black and your white.
Sorry, I know we've moved on, but what? I am from Omaha, too, and while OBVIOUSLY you shouldn't say colored (is that even a thing people say anymore EVER??) I've never heard of someone getting shot for calling someone black, unless something awful preceded or followed it. I've never even heard that you shouldn't say it. I grew up in North O and in very racially diverse areas and it's the term of choice for most people (along with African American). For example, my brother's fiancee is black and she's not African American. She's from St. Martin. And this isn't just me assuming; she's corrected people.
It was way back in the day when it happened and all that was ever released on the news was that guy A was shot for calling guy B black. Who knows with the news media what really happened but I remember this story because at the time I had a very good friend who lived right on the edge of North Omaha and my grandmother who I lived with at the time wouldn't let me go to her house anymore. I was in I think 9th or 10th grade because I couldn't drive yet so this was oh gosh like 1997-1998ish. Guess it is way further back in years then my memory would like to admit.
I never lived in North Omaha so I don't know what the terms were there but where I grew up they preferred African American. I just don't call anyone anything besides their given name and then there is no problems to solve on what to call someone.
The Omaha/Metro area is very diverse and that is why I love living in this area because my children are exposed to lots of different cultures. That is one plus side to this crappy weather (as shown earlier) state.
Cash its usually right in the front as you walk in and near the bathrooms. It will be like a little island of bins together, its all 1$ Enjoy next time!!!

MamCBear is who started saying I was the captain of the SS Love Tit, If you were around earlier I said its a pretty purple boat with hot pink lettering I made @SSM the captain of our cheer squad. That and she wants to be a "flyer" whatever that means. I told her she could just to make her happy. I am captain of the boat so I can't be captain of the team as well.

I have a slight buzz going and this all made me confused. I had to read it several times. Lol
And the fact that I'm making no sense is making me giggle more... Guys I'm going off the deep end!!!
Time for sleep my dear.......sleep. Try and get some. I will pray for you to get some much needed rest.
Dh just got home and momma needed a break so I fibbed. I told him I had a stomach ache and had to use the bathroom. Not the case I just wanted to come bump for a few minutes in peace oops.
I do this too... The bathroom is my quiet place to be alone ( well at least when DH is home.) He must think I have some serious stomach issues lately because I'll say I have to pee but I'll sit in there for 15 minutes just to have a moment to myself!!
Speaking of bathrobes... I love the idea of them for both LO and myself but never actually use them. Things to ponder...
I have a bathrobe I HAD to have it, never use it. It just hangs there. Both of my older kids had them from birth till like age 6 and they used them some but not what they were worth $ wise. I won't get one this time unless I find one second hand. They are for some reason one of those odd things you think you need to have so badly but never use.
We nearly skipped 0-3 month completely. She wore nb for almost three months and then was in the next size for three weeks. I had awesome clothes for her in that size, but she wore most of them once. This was not what I was expecting, but it seems like she caught up to her age group in the matter of a couple weeks. It's been a scramble to bring her 3-6 stash up to speed.
This is kind of our situation. We may have gotten a little more time out of the 0-3 than you did. But all the sudden the footed onesies are too short. It seems odd because DH is a peanut.... Only 13 lbs at 4 1/2 months. He's only in the 5 percentile.
I have piles of clothes to organize but can't seem to find the time.

LO got one as a gift and I put it on her twice because I felt like if someone went to the trouble to pick it out for her than she should wear it but really it just pissed her off.

I used to be a cheerleader! I was the base, the person who holds the flyer!
I was desperate for something sweet and we had no junk food in the house. I just ate eggo waffles with peanut butter and chocolate syrup lol.
Sounds like pregnant lady food. Can you get pregnant without having sex?
Your safe woman, you need to DTD to get pregnant Eat all the Eggos you want!!

I was just joking with DH that I'm probably pregnant too because Ive had first tri exhaustion the last few nights and crazy hormones.
I am sooo sick of BCP. I'm on my second type now and still having issues. I'm only starting the second week now and I swear my period is on its way again. I'm crampy and so depressed today.
I look something like this when asked to do anything that involves rhythm.
You don't have to have rhythm its all for fun, I am fat and can't dance I will come back to you next recruitment, think about it...I will pick you out a pretty outfit all your own!!
DH was at a business dinner tonight and fucking Cambury made me order Chinese food for just myself. It was delicious and yet I hate myself.
DONT love tit this
Only because you asked, but just so you know, I was going to do it You know the Chinese food was yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!
Could be. Probably all these fucking meds my neuro doc has me on. Speaking of which. I needed to reschedule my follow up. But can't because he's going to be out of town for the rest of the month so he calls me for a follow up. He has a really think Indian accent. He asks me how they are working. I'm like I am 95% better but still get an occasional one at night. I really need my sleep. Especially with an infant. I need all the sleep I can get. He's all "take moaaaar medicine. You can take more. You are young. I prescribed berry, berry little. Take moaaaar." Ummmm. I want a new doctor. Yes, he got me 95% better. But filled me up with lots of meds and I'm not sleeping and eye twitches now... I'm not sure if they are related but I don't know If I like the idea of a doctor just saying take more, take more, take more. I don't want to take more... >:P
I would maybe try and get a second opinion, but maybe it is your body just adjusting to the new meds? I hope the twitch goes away soon, I had one while pregnant and they are NO fun.
