My husband backed into a shopping cart the other day and it hit a van and dented the back door. It was a small dent about the size of a golf ball and had no scratch or paint chip. The guy called today and decided he wants it fixed and I am just wondering how much it is going to cost us. Our insurance will cover it but then our premium will go up about 0.00 a year. I’m just wondering if it will be cheaper to pay for it on our own and not put an accident on our insurance. Any suggestions?

Is apraxia part of the autism spectrum disorders? Sensory problems? Food allergy?

 

My son was recently diagnosed with apraxia at age 2.5. He has been in speech since 20 months (3x a week). He is 2 months shy of 3 yrs. He has made huge leaps and bounds over where he was. At 18 months he said 3 partial words. He picked up sign language extremely quickly. He understood you and followed directions (most of the time). He is still well behind where other children his age are. His Speech Language pathologist (SLP) said if he keeps making as much progress as he has, and keeps the pace up, by the time kindergarten comes, he shouldn’t be far behind the other kids. I was ecstatic upon hearing that. His hearing is fine. His intelligence is very good.

I have noticed a few things though. I still have a gut feeling that something just isn’t right. He is the most destructive child I’ve ever had. He is worse than his two older brothers were combined. (The older brothers were less than 2 years apart, and would team up together and baby powder the house, and stick of lincoln logs up the vacuum, etc) He is so busy getting into everything. Turn your back a second, to take feed/change his little brother, and you have: powered laundry detergent down the lint screen hole in the dryer, or all 5 lbs of cat food poured on the floor, or dad’s poster paints all over the carpet, or lipstick drawings on the walls and carpet, or toothpaste squeezed out all over the bathroom sinks, labels riped off all the cans of food, etc. I have baby locks on all the cabinets, but he figured them out in 2 days. I do lock doors, but he knows how to use the keys. He is a climber. He will climb on everything. He has a ton of toys. I play with him. He loves to help me with housework: putting wet laundry in the dryer, carrying groceries, making daddy’s coffee, etc.

He has other behavior issues. It is really hard to put a finger on it. He won’t ever settle down. Taking him to the doctors is a nightmare. We went to the cardiologist for a heart murmur. They went to put sticker on his chest to get a heart tracing. He lost it He screamed and sweated so much, the stickers were falling off. There was Toy Story 2 on right in front of him. The nurse brought stickers, and a lollipop, and a juice box, anything to get him to calm down. Obviously, stickers don’t hurt. It took myself and another nurse to hold him down. He acted like we were killing him. The nurse mentioned sensory issues. He hates bandages. Even the ones with the characters he likes, he will cry if they are on him. He refuses to get his blood pressure taken. Even before the cuff tightens, he is screaming "off me". He hates certain things. He hates sitting in the grocery carts, seat or basket. The diaper changing pad has a cover on it. I was washing both covers, and he screamed and yelled about it touching him. "Ow, Ow, off me!" I also changed his little brother on it. There were no complaints from him. He hates his car seat. It is a very nice seat, with a lot of cushioning. His complaint is the straps. Sometimes he will scream hysterically about sitting with the straps on. He’ll sit without the straps no problem. He’ll scream "Go me" (Let go of me.) He’ll work himself up so much that he’ll try to make himself throw-up. I’ve tightened the straps. I’ve loosened the strap, until they were basically useless. The straps have padding on them where the strap hits the shoulder. It makes no difference. He has issues with tags. Of course some tags are scratchy, as everyone has felt before. I removed those tags. Some are made out of very soft ribbon. He hates those too. Of course the same type ribbon is on his stuffed frog that he must carry everywhere. The tag is something that he rubs constantly with his finger. I don’t get it.

The SLP said that he definitely doesn’t have PDD. She says that while she is no doctor, she treats those children everyday, and there is no comparison between my son and the children with PDD. The pediatrician says that his behaviors are similar to some of her autistic patients. Then she referred me back to the SLP he is seeing. DUH!! I can’t help but think there is something else going on. He wants to interact with you, and likes to cling to me most of the day. Does the above sound like a sensory issue? It is very difficult to get referrals to specialists here. I’m trying to get one to a developmental pediatrician.

He also has a problem drinking milk. I’m certain there is something in his genetics. He will have diarrhea 3x a day with any milk consumption. His older brother has a milk protein allergy. He had bloody diapers as a baby. His younger brothor vomited blood and has a protein allergy. He is on feeding tube formula. His older brother didn’t have any issues with speech and was recently told he is gifted. I read something on Google that said that allergies sometimes follow/precede apraxia and autism. Any feelings on this??

Any feedback, personal experiences are

Question about being in shape vs being bigger built?

 

Okay I’ll get the messy work outta the way. . .
1. if your not going to answer the question, then don’t bother unless you can make me laugh, then feel free to rant about whatever you want.
2. If your going to insult me, please come up with someone more original then the others who have tried today.
3. do you think I should keep these things attached to all my questions for the random people who can’t get over themselves?

~~~~~~~~~~
Real question:
I was reading again, (shock of ages I can read). . . And one complain of a top trainer was people being out of shape and riding. Now my question is : Is that everyone who is bigger/fatter/heavier/whatever term you choose to use, wrong for riding horses? or is it just for people who are out of shape no matter what their size (yes you can be out of shape and be smaller size).
The reason I ask is cause yes I am bigger (shoot me I have a chest), and I am not hugely heavy. Do I have to stop riding and go to the gym more before it’s considered safe for me to ride? Or can I say heck I work on a farm, live on another farm, work and go to school… so I should be safe to ride because I’m not totally out of shape?

one last question/thought: Is anyone else who is bigger framed and not a striaght line tired of people telling them they’re hurting themselves and their horses? I mean isnt riding exersize and they don’t want us to exersize, and shouldn’t bigger framed people (trying to be P/C and not say fat…) get out more anyway? cutting off that form of getting out/moving seems counter productive.

(note: I’m not talking about those huge people who ride smaller horses, or those huge people who ride in a cart behing mini’s. I’m talking about a bigger rider who fits the size of the horse)

I'm pretty sure I have diabetes, I'm scared, please tell me if this sounds it out!?

 

I’m a young adult, and just found out that you can get diabetes type 1 at my age, 16, well to start it all off, I AM a hypochodriac and worry about many diseases but I’m pretty sure of this one. First of all I was a the store yesterday and I got very confused and was kind of waltzing around trying to get my stuff and return to my mom’s cart and half the time I couldn’t even remember what I had just said, I’m pretty sure this is all hypoglycemia then I came home and told my parents I was feeling REALLY funny and told them what had happened and they just told me to relax so I had a glass of juice and tryed to calm down. Today it’s easter and I had a big breakfast and dinner a few hours after and ended up being really really thirsty after I ate a lot, I had beans, a roll and falafel which are chickpea patties, and more water. I didn’t have increased urination which I know is one of the symptoms… but I did have increased thrist after I ate all of that and after I had desert I felt funny as well. And right now my vision is kind of blurred not to the point that I can’t see but to the point where long distant things are a bit blurry. How blurry is the diabetic symtoms supposed to be? I’m so scared I have type one diabetes! I am going to have a doctors appointment either tomorrow, or tonight if I get to scared and it gets worse I may go to urgent care. My dad says that your ankles would be swollen if you seriously had diabetes, and mine aren’t at all but that isn’t on any of the symptom sites. Anyway, please tell me if these sound like serious symtoms of type 1. I’m so scared that I might have it, I just need some reassurence that everythings going to b e okay. Please!! :[[
Also my arm has been tingly on and off for the past few days, this worries me even more because I know its a symtomp as well!

Cost to stay in Australia for 3 months.?

 

I am planning a trip to Australia for 3 months. I have a place to stay (actually places) so, I don’t have to pay for room and board, because they will feed me as well. :) I’m just wondering about how much cash I should save up in order to have a good time. I’m not a huge partier or anything like that I mostly like wandering around looking at things, I’m a very frugal person (I’m someone who will go "shopping" for hours on end and put a lot of things in my cart and end up talking myself out of buying most things and walk out with only 2 or 3 things, even when I shop at Goodwill, I love that place!) I also love taking photographs and sight seeing. I was thinking a few thousand should work, I’m just not exactly sure. I don’t really know about the cost of anything there so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Where do i get the code of the paypal shopping cart to put it on my website…?

How do I get a customized Paypal cart (multiple options)?

 

I’m going to start building PCs for people in my area. I have made the website, but I’m stuck at one part. I’m familiar with and use regularly the Paypal merchant tools, but the shopping cart system seems to be missing an integral feature; the ability to have a single item with multiple options kind of like what you would do when buying from HP or Dell. I mean, where you have the base model and can add or remove components with a drop-down list and only have to click the add to cart/buy it now button once. Does anyone know how to do this?
I don’t have really any experience coding PHP, so something that works out-of-the-box would be best.

WHY DOESNT YAHOO HAVE THIS CATERGORY!? how to add it!?! thankss?

 

i think yahoo should have a GOLF CART catergory! i have alot of questions regarding golf carts and i cant seem to find a correct place to put these questions… i have tried in the golf section but thats for golfers not golf carts which involes parts and mechanics and other things…. in cars and transportation its confusing because most people go in there to ask or answer about cars trucks or trains so my main question is:

1. HOW CAN I CONTACT YAHOO AND ASK THEM TO MAKE THIS A CATERGORY? how can we make this a catergory

2. do you agree with me? and have you ever been wanting this or had trouble finding answers to golf carts?!

** also in the search engine catergory i think they need to also add EBAY!!

THANKS!!!

Just about to big for his car seat carrier but not big enough to sit in the shopping cart….?

 

My baby is 4 1/2 months old. He doesn’t sit up by himself yet and has just about out grown his infant car seat carrier. When I go shopping, I have always just kept him in the carrier. So now where do I put him when I buy a regular car seat? Lol…hope this doesn’t sound stupid!

My Action Replay DS can't read the DS card.?

 

Is there any way to fix this? It’s v1.52 and was recently wiped of codes and games. Even if the game’s codes are gone, shouldn’t it be able to at least say "Unknown Game"? Instead, it says Insert Game Cart, when I know that the game is fully in.

Having trouble finding the right shopping cart for e-store. Please help… ???

 

If you look at dell.com or hp.com or alienware.com … Their shopping carts allow users to customize a product with images and meaning, AND it does not show that every part of the computer the person is buying like most shopping carts. I seen one cart demo – that after I customized my parts, I was going to be purchasing 14 items! Crazy…! No customer will use that … hehehehe …
I need the same features at the big companys in the shopping cart for the same business (selling computers).

What shopping cart out there is good enough. The only few I saw was:
SunShop shopping cart but it did not use big items just used little selectors to customize the items.
and
X-Cart which so far is the one, but it cost alot and is it all templates, which SUCKS! for a major company.

Please help anyone

Teaching a mini horse to lunge?

 

Our barn got a mini horse who just turned a year old on Saturday and eventually we’re going to each him to jump and pull a cart but he has no idea how to lunge and has no fear of the whip what so ever even if we poke him with it or snap it to get him to go. he just walks around sniffing the ground. he’s much better on a lunge line than in the round pen but it would be much more convenient to lunge him in the round pen. any suggestions?
