I got harrassed once for only being 5-10 minutes “early”, but it was during a bloody snowstorm!!
We have a “little” center and there are never more than 3 of us in the waiting room, so things get going pretty quickly.

BEC- (6) 75tomq04ParticipantI'm a forum junky, I have a suspicion i'll be hanging around for at least a while. The veterans have been so helpful on my journey…i would love to give some of that back!
By the by, I'm feeling pretty good, but i've failed FAR twice, and gone over the material each and every time…you can't let anything get in the way if you want to pass!

Alternatively, I would prefer them to start a business and skip college altogether…however i'm now rather jaded when it comes to higher ed.

BEC- (6) 75tomq04ParticipantI'm a HUGE advocate for chiropractic care. Many headaches are neck/stress related, a regular adjustment will help everything flow properly in your system. There are some nuts out there, in general, the nutier the better.
As mentioned above, eyes can be a major contributor, as can hydration levels, and last but not least is nutrition. Any sort of pain is caused by something being out of balance, your body is talking to you, be sure to listen!

BEC- (6) 75August 11, 2014 at 9:59 pm in reply to: Anyone having to readjust their plans for failing marriage or divorce? - Page 21 #676796tomq04ParticipantTux- You're close to the heart of the matter, but things can get a little more personal.
A huge majority of folks forget that marriage is about “us” and “me” becomes a very distant 2 (or 3 after kids). Obviously there are situations mentioned above causing problems. I just noticed every response mentioned why it wasn't working for them, the poster.
I'm only 26 and have been married 3 years, and let me tell you that no “sane” person would have put up with most of the insanity, but we're stronger and tighter than ever. Side note, I do not recommend kids 9 months after getting married. We're happily enjoying kid #2 that were birth control babies 🙂 they are awesome, but there is a lot of stuff that 2 imperfect people need to work out…fortunately we have survived our massive crash course. If I lost my marriage over this test, I wouldn't want to have anything to do with it.
