My youngest son is graduating college this weekend, and will be coming home for a visit. He’s accepted a job nearby, but not near enough for him to live at home. That’s fine with me because this house is plenty full already and although I always miss him when he’s gone, I think he will [...]

Guest post by Linda Bradshaw When my hubby was injured in my car accident in 2007, I tried to get my mortage company for our house in New England that we were trying to sell to grant me a hardship forebearance. Since he wasn’t able to work due to my injuries, I was hopeful to [...]

When I was in high school, girls were not expected to do well in math. Most of the girls never even took Algebra 1, let alone Algebra 2! As for me, well math was never my favorite subject, but I always got an A in every math class I ever took. I had plans to [...]

When I was a little girl, my father performed as a clown in several local circuses and travelling minstrel shows. Sometimes I was lucky enough to go see him perform. Naturally, a little girl adores her father, so I developed a fondness of clowns – they remind me of my father! Also, when I was [...]

Guest post by David Dalson! When I was a small boy growing up in the small town of Eureka, CA there were times when our options for fun were less than well, fun. But, luckily my sweet grandmother and grandfather lived only 50 miles away. Even though my grandparents lived close to my brother and [...]

Last night my hubby and I went to Home Depot to pick up a few things to put some shelves up in the garage. I find it frustrating to shop at Home Depot a lot of times. I find it difficult to get the floor associates to help me find things. But on the other [...]

One of the things that I’ve learned over the years is that a family death can be more than heart breaking. It can also be a financial disaster. I think that too many people don’t bother buying Life Insurance because they are selfish. Many feel that once they are dead, that they have nothing to [...]

Can you imagine going to a mall, and getting hungry, heading to the food court and grabbing a bite and all of a sudden a bunch of seemingly random people start singing and dancing? What a hoot! So funny – if I could participate in an Improv Everywhere stunt I would be so thrilled! I [...]

Yesterday Jeff asked me to help him out. He’s in a real bind. His wife Bonnie has told him that she wants him to buy her some Vera Wang Perfume for her birthday. He has been in a real tizzy since then because he has no idea where he can go to buy any Vera Wang [...]

Well, I decided to just keep the new home page for a while and see what interesting stories pop up. I did see a link to an interesting advice video about caring for washers and dryers. I’m going to show it to my hubby and suggest that he do what the video is advising! Might [...]

I have been very upset about how much money it costs lately to have our cars worked on. I can remember not very long ago (OK, maybe it WAS long ago!) when I could pay only around $20 for an oil change, and only have to wait about fifteen to twenty minutes to get it [...]

I was annoyed this morning when I got on my computer and found that somehow my “home page” had been changed. Even though everyone in the house has their very own laptop computer, it seems that when I’m not at my own desktop computer the rest of the family takes the opportunity to use my [...]

Written by Dave Riley As an Adam Sandler fan, I found the movie, “Little Nicky”, to be very funny. Set in New York City, the plot centers on Sandler’s character, Nicky, who comes up to earth from hell in order to save the world and to save his father from decomposing. I particularly liked the [...]

A few weeks ago I decided to buy a package of “EZ Combs.” I have waist-long hair and was looking for a different, yet simple way to style my hair while at work. The “EZ Combs” are very pretty, and they certainly looked easy to use. So I bought a package (for about $10.) The [...]
