    Favorite Christmas traditions?

    Though this topic may have been visited in the past, I'm curious to know: What are your favorite old and new Christmas traditions? Mine would be... OK, really old: Lighting my Räuchermännchen (these are German incense smokers I collect...when I was growing up, we always lit these with...

    Gonna go Dr. Phil on my son!

    Pam, Ha ha, love your thread title. :D I agree with Janie on both points—that it is important to say no at times and to have your son earn some things on his own as we do appreciate things more when we have to work for them. Some other ideas: Make gratitude a part of your daily dinner...

    Has Anyone Ever Intentionally Mispronounced Your Name????

    Ha! :D Love it! Oh yeah. I have had both my first and last names intentionally mispronounced. I have also had my first name UNintentionally mispronounced, and though I corrected the individuals numerous times, they shrugged, said “Oh, whatever,” and continued on with the incorrect...

    My DVDs are Missing :(

    Three times in the past 3 years, something has happened with my UPS deliveries. Twice, they said packages were delivered to my doorstep, but they were not there. They might have been mis-delivered or swiped off my doorstep. I never found out as neither was ever recovered. In both instances...

    Turning 30

    Happy birthday! Turning 30 didn't faze me in the least...in fact, it was one of my best years ever! I think it's all about attitude...that is, living life to the fullest and not getting hung up on numbers. I say, celebrate the milestone! :D

    Totally off topic - Kanye??

    I have to agree. I used to like Kanye’s music, but I find his behavior so bizarre and tacky, it’s sort of turned me off from his talent. I have no interest in hearing the new record. The thing with the awards show & Taylor Swift was classless. For him to complain now that Taylor didn’t come...

    Digital camera? What to buy? Techies help!

    I am a happy owner of a Canon EOS Rebel XSi and have no knowledge of the Nikons (sorry!), but just a heads up, Amazon is having some great deals in cameras and electronics for Black Friday. Worth checking out.

    So bummed

    You are doing the smart thing by taking it easy for a few days. A few years ago, I was rear-ended on my way to a 5K. It seemed like such a minor accident—the car was merely scratched and I felt OK, so I ran the race, anyway. But toward the end of the run, I did start to feel a bit of pain in...

    Black Friday

    It depends on the deals and what's on my shopping list. I usually do some very limited, early bird Black Friday shopping. As in, get in and get out, home by 8 am. While I'm not one for crowds, some bargains are too good to pass up. I approach it as a little bit of a sport and just have fun...

    Rant and *spoiler* for Dancing With the Stars

    I have not watched every episode this season, but I was shocked by the vote last night as clearly everyone on the show was. Based on dancing ability, there is no way Bristol—even though she has certainly improved—should have made it to the finals over Brandi. But I don't think voting was...
