    Why do people leave their carts out in the parking lot?

    When I was talking about not returning my cart because of my kids, it was when they were a baby and a toddler. It was too hard to unload the groceries into the vehicle with a toddler at my feet (who could run off at any moment in a parking lot), so I would buckle them in to the vehicle first...

    Why do people leave their carts out in the parking lot?

    When my kids were little (car seat little), I would leave the cart, but with the promise (to myself) that I would always return my cart if I was alone and even get one or two extra along the way. When they were little, there was a news story (or two) about kids being abducted from grocery...

    My brilliant idea in the name of "openness"

    I have never "starred" anything except once when I saw exactly what you are describing and I was trying to counteract that low star rating. I found that my starring capability was blocked. The site said that I had already starred the thread, when indeed I had not!! I will join the boycott...

    Thank you for sharing that beautiful story, Janie! My condolences to you and your family. What a great attitude you have about her passing. I am so glad that you were able to be with her when she died. I have never witnessed a death, but my own Mom has and she has described it as a...

    Top Five Favorite Reads of 2009

    I don't think I originally responded...well maybe I did...but I just finished the Sookie Stackhouse books and I loved them! Delicious, quick, funny reads! They were great light reads! I am now being entertained by the True Blood series (currently being repeated, season 1 on HBO)! Love it...

    Movie theater etiquette

    I am also a matinee girl, don't like the crowds. I went to see the Chipmunk movie last week and had a woman in front of us that was a heavy smoker. How do I know that she was a heavy smoker? Because she reeked of smoke the entire movie! I am sensitive to smells, but she was really bad! I...

    Cordless Vaccuum Suggestion???

    I actually have the Shark and like it a lot! I used to use it all the time. I bought 2 of them, one the day after Thanksgiving a few years ago and then another one the next Thanksgiving (only $10 each time on a Black Friday deal). We have a pet now and I bought the broom/vacuum from Dirt...

    any other large busted cathlete's?

    AND!!!...when you are in the stupid bra section, there are cute, tiny, adorable bras at eye level. The people who need bigger cups have to crawl on the floor to see the bras that fit them...and no more cute ones on the floor!! Jenn

    Did anyone see Avatar?

    There are lots of sites that will review movies for you and tell you what to expect as to appropriateness for different age levels. I like to check these out, since we all have different definitions of what is appropriate for our families! Here is an example of one, but a quick google search...

    any other large busted cathlete's?

    I am probably not helping, but I tried all of these suggestions for years before I finally had a breast reduction (from a 36DDD down to a 36C). Now I can buy sports bras almost anywhere and only wear one! I made this decision after much thought and thinking the entire thing through (lots of...

    I CANNOT believe what DS did (long)

    I am feeling pretty bad for your DS. He sounds like he has been in turmoil for at least a week, if not longer. He should still have a consequence, but I am thinking a month of no Wii is a long time (for both of you!). I am not sure if you are asking for any kind of advice, but I know that I...

    Question about Pregnancy

    My doctor said that I could but that it was a personal choice, so I chose not to. Since he didn't say, "go ahead and do it", I took it as a maybe. I looked awful, since I had a lot of grey, but I figured that I was giving up so many other things (caffeine, Tylenol, Motrin, alcohol, etc), that...

    real or fake tree?

    Clare~ I totally agree with you!! I am shocked at my friends who don't let their kids touch the tree! My kids decorate the whole entire thing (and then went to both grandparents' houses to do the same thing!). It looks...interesting :) and I love every inch of it! Plus, they actually work...

    Ultimate Christmas present?

    When I was a kid, my Dad brought home a huge box and put it near the tree. It was taller than the Christmas tree! All 6 kids had to write on the box what we thought was inside and whoever guessed it got to keep the present! I guessed it correctly and got it!! It was a huge stocking filled...
