RN, It's the nature of the beast... thousands of tiny needle pricks are just plain gonna HURT!!!

I think, by default, any "hidden" place is gonna hurt like you-know.

RN Congratulations, Yanks, it sounds like the move to LA is working out in your favor and everything's coming up roses (but not like when Ethel Merman sings it, nosirreebob, its more like the Patti Lupone version or something).

RN congratulations to Costa too, here's hoping they reward you properly with a payraise.

RN, I can guarantee (!!) you that the lower back one hurts like nobody's business!!!! And mine is very low below my waist. Ouch!

RN, thanks y'all. I think the pay raise will come in July. But the title change is a good thing!

Right now ... I would love an ankle tattoo but am too afraid of the pain. My tattoo is in a nice cushioned area.

Right now II ... is anyone else suffering from a Spring cold? I'm all sinusy and feel yucky! :-(

RN: Vacanick, I am just getting over a cold. It was awful. Sore throat, chest congestion, stuffy nose, watery eyes. UGH, I even had to go to urgent care because I got a respiratory infection. I took the advice of some people here and went and bought some maximum strength mucinex. It's a miracle drug, i was right as rain in about 30 minutes and for the rest of the day!

Landi, my mom has an ankle tattoo, she said it hurt bad, but she's a sissy.

Rn, yep ankle tats are painful also...but if you get it not too close to the ankle bone, makes it a bit more tolerable.Have one on each ankle and 1 on the inside of my ankle. The top of my foot tat was the most painful though.

RN Nick, not a cold, but a sinus infection. Been sick all week. Sinus and allergy probs and the damn cold have been very common around here lately.

RN, have two tats on my arms and one on my chest just above and off to the side a bit of my breast...the one on my chest hurt a whole hell of a lot more than the ones on my arms! I've heard that the ankle is a very very sensitive spot.

Rn I could use some help and I'm not quite sure where to post. I need help being goofy and supportive, but in no way mushy for Caleb, lol.

State and federal testing is starting at the end of the month. One of the school activity groups is doing a fund raiser and during each day of testing (six in total) they will deliver a healthy snack and juice to your kid. For each day they also provide a little cut-out so you can write a message to your kid that will get delivered with the snack.

Caleb has always viewed these tests with nothing less than a full on panic. He worries and stresses about them, doesn't eat well and usually skips breakfast during them. He ends up giving himself headaches. I always send him a snack but I figure I might as well take advantage of the fund raiser and have the snacks delivered along with a little message that may help relieve some stress and worry.

Anyone got some suggestions? Can't be anything mushy or real heart felt cuz ya know he's an almost 12 year old boy and MOM! (anyone who's had or been a preteen, I'm sure, knows the exact tone that would be said in, lol!)

RN Maybe something like "take a deep breathe and slowly let it out" or "relax your forehead and then your eyes, then cheeks, etc" for help with the headaches?

RN I think a little humor, combined with a bellylaugh, might break up some of Caleb's tension.

These tests are sure adding a lot of stress on the poor kids these days. Remember the old days when school was actually FUN?

RN, yep, Bisc. I hate testing time, it effects him so badly, it's just terrible as a parent. And yep, humor and bellylaughs will be a good thing. He's my goofy one so he'll appreciate that.

Twinks, back in third grade they were taught self-relaxation techniques to prepare for the tests. Breathing exercises, visualize peaceful settings, even yoga. Fourth and fifth grade they went over those again. I don't think they have this year so a reminder to just take a deep breath and relax will probably be good.

RN Twinks, I don't think we had the same kind of stress (I'm a little younger than your daughter and I know I didn't have it like that so I'm guessing you probably didn't either?) I'll never forget Caleb's 3rd grade back to school night. The teacher was explaining what they'd be learning that year and then she tells us that they fully expect it will be a hard year and usually by the middle of it most the kids absolutely hate school. That they're trying to cram as much knowledge into them, they have to learn so much, and they spend a lot of time preparing and practicing for the tests. Me and Darren kind of looked at each other and said, "well gee, this sounds like it's going to be a fun year!" And then she explained about the yoga and stuff.

I don't know if ya'll remember or not, but that was the year I had to pick Caleb up, keep him home from school, or run tylenol to school every day for the last month and a half of school. Part of it was due to his glasses and it taking the insurance company forever to approve his referral for the eye dr, but a lot was stress. That poor kid would wake up in the mornings sobbing with his head hurting. He would be pale, naseus/vomiting, sweaty, etc. I have never been as glad as I was that year on the last day of school. And even though it took another few weeks to get him into see the eye dr, his headaches almost overnight became less frequent and severe when school was over.

Right now .. you're right War, it's a lousy sinus infection! I'm sorry you've been suffering with one as well.

And you are so right about the pressure schools put on kids these days. My son is in 4th grade and is doing Algebra. I didn't do Algebra until at least Junior High. It sure does seem like schools are really pushing kids!

RN I'm still in jammies & procrastinating about the shower I need to take so I can make my list & go do the dreaded eow Walmart thing. Frank got up early & took my car in for an oil change & detail so at least I won't have to do that like I was planning.
