Any Truebies still around? Thoughts on last night's Season 4 premiere?

You could also use the candle or florist mounting putty. I don't know the real name, but they are the white sticks that look like clay and you can stick thinks to the wall or whatever and it peel off? Have any idea what I am talking about? lol

Folic Acid is a vitamin supplement. You can either take prenatal vitamins or just folic acid. The RDA for pregnant and nursing women is 800 mg. Most multi vitamins only have 400. I take the gummy prenatals and they rock! They're like a bite of candy every morning! The reason doctors will tell you to use condoms after going off the pill isn't to protect you from hormones, it's to reduce the risk of miscarriages. Depending on the BC method you use, the uterine lining can be too thin to support a pregnancy to full term. If you are TTC you should stop smoking, watch your drinking, and start cutting down of caffeine. Basically quit doing everything fun, lol! I was married almost 3 years ago and we have been TTC for about 6 months now. I have had great luck with temping to learn what is up with my body. I highly recommend the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility and the website FertilityFriend.com. It has an online tracker and will generate charts, etc. I know lots of people that have gotten pregnant using these tools. By learning how your body operates, you can also use the program as a form of family planning or to help your doctor identify any problems you may be having. Just my two cents! Good luck ladies!

I had every intention of getting the book for Feb but so far haven't had time! I'll keep trying but I my have to catch back up in March! Happy Reading!

The next book is The Kite Runner

So happy I found this thread! What a great way to get back into BDW! I'm an old-timer and still a little confused by the new format, lol. I didn't realize that they were making a movie (series)! I was happy to read that Suzanne Collins would be co-writing the screenplay! I first found this series recommended by Stephenie Meyer somewhere. They really are consuming and don't feel YA. Of the three, I think I liked the first book best. I felt the most connection to the characters though it may be because this was the introduction to the series and Ms. Collins did such a great job of laying the foundation. The final book was my least favorite. I was shocked (and teary) when Prim and the other children were killed. I also felt that Katniss had an almost desperate bordering on whiny-ness about her. I was not surprised that she ended up with Peeta. Gale says that she will end up with the one she cannot survive without. Because Gale has sort of "found himself" by the end of the novel, I think she realizes that he can live without her. There would always be a question in their relationship and after so much loss, I think she was seeking stability. Peeta also had been through the same experiences with the Hunger Games that no other person could ever fully understand.

I think it's cute and like someone else said, at least it will be memorable. I worked with a girl whose dad was James White and she married a James White. If she hyphenated she would have been Jenny White-White! A few years ago there was a couple in the news who met over Facebook because they shared they same exact name, something like Kelly Harris for both the boy and the girl. Now that would be weird!

Those are GREAT! But I would expect nothing less from Sarah! She's the best!

Those are beautiful pictures! I'm sure you're thrilled with them!

So sad that this season is over! Â Very excited about this hidden post thing though! Â Â Russell couldn't get out of the cement because he was too weak and Eric has his fangs so he can't feed to regain strength. You know I am all about spoilers so as soon as I find any info on the next season or next book, I'll be sure to share!

OK, just watched the new episode. I heart True Blood but I'm a little uneasy (? don't know if that is the right word) with this season. They are SOOOO far off the books and mixing things in from future books and I feel a little lost. I like the series so much, but I'm afraid they're going a little too far from the original plot and it's going to end up all crazy where everyone is in a time machine or some shit. Â I get that they need to add depth to the minor characters but I'm not liking how they have changed some of the characters. If I remember correctly, Russell was not bat-shit crazy in the books and he for sure didn't have a were-posse led by some guy named Cooter. I feel like his storyline has gone the way of Maryanne and I think I'm over it. Â I am however happy with the more frequent appearances of Eric! And I still want to make out with him for real. I have heard that season 4 will be the book 4 storyline which means LOTS of Eric! Â The Jesus/Lafayette trip kinda freaked me out so I don't know where that will go. I'm thinking Jesus may be more into the "black arts". If they stick with the books, Holly is pretty harmless and ends up with Andy (though I think she was a teacher?) I think it was Tanya? that was a psycho waitress. Â Sam is having some major issues! His brother is not right; I bet he will for sure kill and/or be killed by the end of the season. I bet he's stalking Jessica. Â And how are there only 2 more episodes?!?!?!?! I have way more questions now than answers!

The jars for sand all came packed in this little box with dividers (think a case of wine). I put vellum address label stickers and ribbons on at home and packed them away in the same box. I didn't have a single one get broken! They are only about 3-4" tall so didn't take up much room in the suitcase.

Her interviews make me want to drive nails through my eyes...LOL THANK YOU! She irritates the crap out of me! And if you notice, in pretty much every movie she plays the sullen, horny teenager. Her interviews are so bad they make me uncomfortable! I get that people are shy, but for the love of GOD, hire someone to write you a script and ACT like you have a personality!

Soooooo, how was it? I'm a little pissed. There was a mis-communication and I thought a friend was supposed to buy my ticket and she thought I had it. Now the show tonight is sold out so I'm missing the movie and GNO! So I want details! I don't know when I'll have the chance to see it anytime soon. Although, I did hear that a local drive-in theater is showing all 3 back to back this weekend! I might just have to clear my schedule! lol

Jessica is just a made up character, I think they kept her around because she's a fan favorite like Lafayette. The whole dealing V sub plot was not in the books. IMPO, those characters kind of update and expand the plot line. The early books feel a little dated, but then again they are 10+ years old! I am really liking that this book is following the book a little more closely so I have some idea of what to expect. Of course with this show that will all change next episode. I wondered who hired Franklin? He's perfect for the role but creepy! I'll be counting down the days until the 11th!

I missed the first 15 minutes so I have to go back and watch. I will say again how much better Season 3 is than Season 2!

Wednesday wasn't as good for me this week as it was last week. I was sad to see Christina go. I didn't think she would be around too much longer but I am not liking Melinda at all! Her "Avatar: The Dance" did nothing for me and those red pants for her solo were enough to get her booted! I was super shocked that Billy Bell was not in the bottom 3 and Robert(o) was instead!
