Let talk about Pokemon Go. I put the game in and then the IT guy at work had me give it a second shot. Yes I'm hooked. So here's some hints that I have learned so far, Get as many of any pokemon you see as humanly possible. You need all the stardust you can get from capturing them. Get rid of all the little ones. Transfer them to the professor for that Pokemon candy. Keep the pokemon with the Highest CP value. Use the highest CP value to evolve. Fight in the GYMS! Get you high VP value Pokemon in the gyms. If you keep them in a day, each day you get 10 coins and 500 stardust just for managing to stay in the gym. Powering them up after evolving them takes stardust and candy. Evolving takes a certain amount of candy per each Pokemon. You can use real money to buy balls, luck eggs, incense, lures, etc. But this will ass up fast. A buck doesn't go very far. Get it in the game.
As it so happens, many players play in the vehicles. If you can't can't deride you attention properly. DON'T DO IT! You shouldn't do it at all, but we're all guilty of hitting those Poke-stops while driving. IT is dangerous! Upgrade your bag to carry more balls etc. It's wroth it with the coin you make. The more balls you can carry the better. Go to Parks, Zoo, Landmarks etc. Very public places have the most Poke-stops and Pokemon. Battle The Gyms! They also help you level up. Pokemon~
Evee. If you go in and rename Evee it will make slightly Different Evolution's of Evee - Flareon, Vaporeon, and Jolteon 1. rainer - Will give you a water type 2. pyro - will give you a fire type 3. letting Evee evolve normally gives you An electric Evee
The following excerpt if from http://www.bustle.com/articles/174759-what-are-the-different-eevee-evolutions-vaporeon-flareon-and-jolteon-arent-the-only-ones
4. Espeon
Espeon, my personal favorite, is Eevee's Psychic evolution. It first
appeared in Generation II games — Silver, Gold, and Crystal — and it can
be attained by evolving an Eevee with a high friendship level during the day. Espeon can use the red jewel in its head to read air currents and communicate telepathically with its Pokemon Trainer.
5. Umbreon
Also introduced in Generation II is Umbreon, a Dark type Pokemon.
Like Espeon, you need to have an Eevee with a high level of friendship,
but you have to evolve it at night. Bulbapedia says that "the rings of Umbreon's body glow faintly when exposed to the moon's aura, and it gains a mysterious power."
6. Glaceon
As you might have expected from the name, Glaceon is an Ice type. It
didn't appear until Generation IV, so it's one of the more recent
additions to the Eevee evolution tree. Glaceon can freeze its fur,
generating sharp quills it can use for attack, and it is capable of
creating ice crystals in the air around it.
7. Leafeon
This is Eevee's Grass type evolution, and it's called Leafeon because
it's capable of photosynthesis. I guess it's also called Leafeon
because the Pokemon writers were running out of ideas for Eevee
evolutions and were like, "Leafeon! Yeah! That sounds good!" Like
Glaceon, it first showed up in Generation IV.
8. Sylveon
Sylveon is a Fairy type Pokemon, and frankly, it looks terrifying. It's the last of the Eevee evolutions, making its debut in Pokemon X and Y.
Sylveon can generate auras from its feelers, which impact the emotions
of all those who are nearby. It's most likely to to exude calming or
friendly auras.
Since "Pokemon Go" is getting an update, it's possible that other forms of Eevee might show up in the game. As to which ones? That's anybody's guess. Images: The Pokemon Company; Giphy; Giphy; Giphy
Needless to say, with it's populariety, the could see more coming.
Use your lucky eggs when evolving. And then try and save up all your evolution's for one setting. It will double your points and help boost you to the next level
The doctors here took my husband off work for the next 3 months. I have insurance and every time were in here they're demanding anywhere from $350-$700 and my deductible is paid in full! . My husband was the main bread winner and that income is gone while he's off and they demands money or they will pretty much let him fall victim to his illness because they won't preform the procedure with out it. Most of my income goes to pay the dam health insurance. How they expect us to pay our house payment, bills, feed or son and them all at once too is beyond me. I have no choice because this is Where the insurance covers. They already got what little bill money I had for this month and all they said was, money or we can't help you.
I've never Welch's on a bill in my life and we're being treated like fucking deviants!
in the 9 nine years my other half and I have been together, he's been kind of a selfish ass. But every so often he shines. We've had a tough nine years. Broke, layoff, new baby, depression... you name it. He recently got a really go job and for once, he told me to get something I wanted. I've always wanted a Jeep. ALWAYS.
He told me to look for one..... I don't think he thought I'd find one so quickly though, but when I told him about it he said "Go ahead." Not what about what he wants, he did make a crack about a motorcycle. and I'm game. I've always wanted one of those too.
I now have this beautiful, 4 door Jeep. Yellow in color. I've wanted one since I was 14 years old at least.... I'm now 44. At this point in life I figure I'd probably never have one... especially not this nice.
My son wrote his first Christmas list to Santa this year.
I made sure, even though I got laid off recently, that he had just about everything he asked for. He had straight A's on his report card. For a six year old good marks and a happy mom is important, but I not only got to see straight A's, but his teacher raved about him so when I went in for the parent teacher conferences that I knew there was no way it could be a bad Christmas for him.
Then there was that inspired moment. people kept posting all these sights willing to take your money to send your child a Letter from Santa. I thought to myself 'Why give them money? I can do this just as easily as they can. I can even make an envelope with a post mark on it. I wouldn't even have to waste the stamp, so that's exactly what I did! I had some marble looking stationary that I printed it on. You can get cheap stationary from the dollar store these day...

So I got the most frightening phone call you could ever get about your child. His school called telling me he was absent today...... I text my Fiance and checked, who said he dropped him off 5-10 minutes late, but he took him to school. I called the school and had them physically go check his class for him. He was not there.
So completely panicked I called my boss freaking out and got his voice
mail. I left a message on his phone. One of the leads at my work walked in while I
was leaving the message.... I was already bawling at this point. I
explained to her and told her I needed to check my house. That was as
calm as I could get about the situation. I'd check the house then if he
wasn't home I'd call the police. I called my Fiance on my drive back home
to find that he was there already and that My son took it upon himself
to walk home this morning. Meanwhile, while driving home I continued
with my nervous breakdown. I cried in my driveway for at least ten minutes
while I debated on beating my kid or hugging him to death. I go inside
and my boy's back on the computer playing. That wasn't going to fly. I grounded him from the computer and X-box.
I explained to my little boy that his school calls me when he doesn't
go. That I though a bad person had gotten him and when bad people take
kids, they don't usually come back. He went to his room and I went
out back to continue my nervous break down before calling my boss to let
him know we found him. Told him I'd be in tomorrow because I was going
to have a nervous breakdown for the rest of the day. My boss told me to give him a hug and then slap him in the back of the head for him. That option sounded good to me too.
I'll
tell you right now. Thinking your child may have been taken by some
sick-o drains the energy and life right out of you. The next day all my
muscles hurt. I had a head ache that that has now lasted 2 days. I'm
emotionally drained.
But
I have come to realize I would do anything to save my child. I was
adding up all the money I could get a hold of in my head while wondering
if I knew enough thugs to offer as reward to attempt to get my child
back and bring me the offender dead or alive. If brought to me alive,
I'm not sure, depending on what they did to my child, if I could have
let them live.
Thankfully I'll never know the answer to that.... My son was safe and I could breath again.
Well,
such as it is. My phone went off the same time of day as when I
received that frightening call today. My heart leaped out of my chest
again. My son.... but happily no. It was the pharmacy reminding me my
prescription was ready.... but the terror remains apparently. I fought
the urge all day to call his grandmother to check on him after she
picked him up from school.
My only son.... my only child.....
I'm
not sure I could live with out him. I can't understand how other
mothers do. The thought of losing him that day was as if I was sentence
to die.
So the impending Anniversary of my fathers death was yesterday. But this year I was feeling it a bit.So to deal with my angst I did this............
So what if the neighbors think I'm weird... Lately, since he's died, I dive into this holiday. Just not usually in September... I've been adding a little every week since I'm in overtime at work. There will be more to come... I'm having my Fiance' build me a coffin this year to add to the collection. I found a witch mask so I've decided to build me a which and buy a plastic cauldron or make one who knows...
My son helping me with the placement felt he needing to be in the picture, but trying to hide. I made the Headstones last year
My fiance' cut them out of wood we had around the house. The joy of being with a construction workers. My son and I painted them. Obviously I did the lettering, but painting the base color lets him feel like a huge contributor. Which he is.
My son got to place all the bones.
You should always let your children help. They get a kick out of it.
My $5 dollar store find!
My son, an angel, and my skeleton dog from Smiths.
So a little update to my yard.... 10-3-2014
Yes, I drove home with the Skeleton showing in my seat just like this.
My son and the skeleton
A few humorous props don't hurt your Halloween any..
The witch I made this year.
My son keeps taking and playing with the skeletons helmet....
It was almost time to go when a supervisor came in and we were started chatting. The lady from the Temporary service we use was there too.
He asked if I've ever heard of Stinko De Mayo. I looked at him funny and asked him what it was. It's basically something a Radio Station did. Where you would bob for prizes in mayonnaise. He said it was so gross. People would throw up in it and and other people would still bob for prizes after they had...
The Temporary Lady said "My stomach just twinged".
I looked at her totally horrified at the though of bobbing for prizes after someone puked in it and blurted out "Your stomach just twinged? Mine just jumped and hid behind my uterus!"
Have we all noticed the EXTREME decline in quality clothing? So far no brand has been exempt. JMS (Just My Size), Wrangler, Faded Glory, Riders & Levi Strauss all have a basic life span of 6 months or less these days. It's truly disgusting how badly we are being cheated by these companies. Not only have the prices gone up, but the quality has gone so far down, that none of them has quality you can trust. I recently bought a pair of JMS jean that literally wore out in 3 months. The pants were slightly to big to boot! I am distrustful of all these old trusted companies. Their lack of quality has sent even one I know looking for clearance and hugely discounted sales for clothing.
I am currently trying out the Costco brand 'Kirkland' and the brands running through their store in hopes that Costco standards have been enforced on these companies. I bought a pair of Kirkland brand shoes (they were only $16) that has recently just past the 6 month expiration date that any other brand of shoes I have bought fall apart by.
I think some sort of quality regulation should be enforced. I am thoroughly disillusioned with all of them! Someone give a name we can trust!
In reality, there is no perfect life. No perfect relationship. You have to assess the pro's and con's of your life, your relationships and your jobs. Most things that are really worth it in life, are a long hard struggle. If it was easy, we couldn't appreciate it. ~ In your life there are things that you can and can not change.
You can't change the past. Deal with the wounds and move on as best you can. Know that nothing heals instantly. Everything takes a little time.
Don't let something wound you so badly that you can't move past it.
Living in the past can and will only harm your quality of life. I'm not
saying forget your past, learn and grow from it.
You can change the path in your life. But no one said that that is easy.
If your life depresses you so drastically that it affect your health,
your quality of life and the company of your good friends, perhaps it's
time to change it. It's scary and its a hard thing to do, but change it.
Even the smallest change for the better, can be in your benefit.
If your friends, partner and family love you, they will accept you've
changed and love you all the more for it. Unfortunately, if they don't,
it's part of what you may need to change in order to better
yourself..... sometimes even to save yourself. Harming others will not make you feel better. In fact it will make you unhappy with yourself. Or in some cases unhappier. ....
And I do swear, if you've changed things in your life for the better,
life will occasionally remind you of what you chose to leave behind.
Give you a glimpse of the improvement when you least expect it.
I've more than once in my life have had to say "I didn't realize how
stressful my life was before until I had to deal with it again".. on
several aspects of my past in fact.
Right now after my view
again of what I could still be living with, I'm extremely grateful for
the Man and the Son that I have. The love and support of family and
friends (you know who you are) who have been an asset and have stayed in
my life through all my changes good and bad.
But right now, I'm extremely glad that I changed my path.....
So yesterday at work they were trying to
figure out how to put an allergen sticker on cream containers. Since we
all know those gallon containers tend to get condensation on them the
stickers wouldn't stick on them. I was out at my last break
and could hear them paging me to receiving. Them I heard my boss call
me to receiving. I finished my break and went into the office. Then I
was told my boss wanted me in receiving. So I went strolling on up only
to find they were trying to get an allergen label to stick to the jug.
Then they were apparently looking for a color code marker to write on
them. I laughed and said "watch this.".. I walked over wrapped the
label around the handle and slapped on around the other side so that
they suck to each other.
Problem solved in under a minute. Apparently,
they'd been working on it at least a half a hour. So I sent my boss this
photo and wrote on it the following message "easy peazy lemon squeeze.
Problem solved ". He never commented back... lol
My boss comes in and says "Why didn't you tell me that you still have that? I could have had So and So do it" This in regards to the lot trace data entry I've been doing for years...
"I've been doing it every day." I said Probably a little pissy. I've
heard will have someone help or do this for several years now... Then I looked at my boss and asked "Can I tell everyone it's not my job." He looks at me and starts to say "yess.... Wait in regards to what?"
"I'm not the computer tech.... I'm.." I started to continue...but he
cut me off. "Yes you can. But you are not ALLOWED to tell me it's not
your job." He stated firmly then was looking at the Temp resource lady
and asked me but a moment later "Are we out of large hairnets?" I looked at him and said " I don't know. " and as quick as a wink while starting to laugh I said "IT"S NOT MY JOB!" He started to say something then stopped and stated "You're right. It's not your job."
At this point I totally lost it laughing. For several minutes in fact.
So hard that he kept looking back through the office windows as he
walked away. ....... and several times on the way home I was
laughing...... LOL cause "Its not my job!"
Then there was that inspired moment. people kept posting all these sights willing to take your money to send your child a Letter from Santa. I thought to myself 'Why give them money? I can do this just as easily as they can. I can even make an envelope with a post mark on it. I wouldn't even have to waste the stamp, so that's exactly what I did! I had some marble looking stationary that I printed it on. You can get cheap stationary from the dollar store these day...
