How sad! I hope she'll get the support she needs.

Learned that my free Coca-Cola towel came in the mail today!

**Dixie** · 04-17-2011, 10:12 PM

I learned that I will have a jam-packed day tomorrow from the moment I get up until I go to bed.

**KristinaB** · 04-18-2011, 06:44 PM

I learned that hubby got called this afternoon for a job interview tomorrow morning. The job pays more than he makes now and it's with an A/C company. they got his name through the classes he took at the Tech school. They are also participating in with the apprenticeship program that he will be doing. This gives him a better chance that others in that program since he will already have a job.

I am sure she will...I think her older sister flew from GA to be with her in Texas last week.

Miss-Delectable · 04-18-2011, 08:06 PM

Learned that my nephew's fiancee and their two boys will come down to Melbourne in three weeks. It will be good to meet baby Aden and see how much Ben has grown.

***~SG~*** · 04-19-2011, 08:16 AM

I've learned that this week I'll get pay twice, one for last week and one for this week... Because of public holiday is coming up for a long weekend (Friday to Tuesday)...

I got last week pay today, as for this week the Work mentioned it should be in my bank on Friday... and funniest thing is I've just logged on my banking account online it mentioned:

Quote:

Payments over Easter. Due to the long weekend, payments between "Name of My Bank" and other financial institutions will not be processed from Friday 22 April to Tuesday 26 April (inclusive). Please note, any payments made after 6:00pm AEST on Wednesday 20 April may not be processed until Thursday 28 April.

Looks like I'll have to wait until next week Thursday for that pay. (At least I have done paying my bills early this week. *whew*)

**TWA** · 04-19-2011, 05:56 PM

I learned that some hearing people who claim to be supporters of the Deaf are really just manipulative hypocrites who like the control. Oh well, it catches up to them in the end.

**SneakerNet** · 04-19-2011, 06:12 PM

I learn that there is remote control for the toilet, this include seat and feet warmer, auto opening the lid, music player and all other tech stuff.

Unfortunately, I have learned the same thing.

That last line "it catches up with them at end" caught my eye thank you! It can be related to any individual who is dealing someone who is controlling and manipulative. My mobile AD version doesn't have "like"

It probably does....You have to tap the screen where the like button would be and the Like will appear

**Dixie** · 04-20-2011, 12:56 AM

Did I miss something? I also learned we narrowly missed a funnel cloud right behind the house, but we couldn't see it for all of the trees going up the ridge.

Miss-Delectable · 04-20-2011, 04:20 AM

Learned that it costs to apply for US Visa.

Last year, we applied for US visa and it was free.

Good to know that.

BecLak · 04-20-2011, 06:30 AM

I'm learning basic signs in Thai Sign Language. Yay! Good for starters.

hohDougRN · 04-20-2011, 04:17 PM

I learned that today is 12 year anniversary of shootings at Columbine High School

**KristinaB** · 04-20-2011, 04:37 PM

I learned that we will be getting a dog when the construction is done on the house. Also learned that MIL will co-sign a loan and has been approved for up to $100,000. Third thing I learned? Hubby got in touch with a licensed, bonded and certified contractor/architect who was recommended by hubby's boss who will do our construction for us. We don't want anything major, just your basic build so that we can have our own place. He thinks he can get it completed in 2-5 months. We will see.

I have to learn to take of me before i can take care of them...

**JClarke** · 04-20-2011, 08:12 PM

For the first time in 12 years, I have booked an appointment with the CI audi as I have a 2 hour assessment on the 16th June 2011.

Yes, it will
and I have been there at least once but it was the time before the technology developed overtime, and I have been told by CI users that the latest version will help in some kind of deafness like I have and what my parents told me long time ago, is that I am not convinced, I would like to find it for myself

Hope it works out the way you hope JClarke.

**Dixie** · 04-20-2011, 09:44 PM

Whoa, JClarke is looking into getting a CI? Good luck with it mate!

I learned that my dad's 'perfectionism' is only getting worse with age. He nearly had a conniption just because Maddie threw her clothes on the floor instead of in the hamper. UGH. I feel like I'm ****ing 12!
