My 9 year old is already using deoderant. He takes Taekwondo 4 times a week, . . I love him more than anything but I won't get close enough to smell his feet.

Great idea Miss Lee, . . . .I HATE leg presses too. :(

Amen sister! I know it is hard but when life gets me down I just try to think of what I am greatful to have, . .like parents who are alive and willing to help and a roof over my head. Small steps, . . everyone here has given you wonderful and supportive advice already. All I'd like to add is...

This is interesting, . . . I got into a little debate with my SIL about sunscreen. She doesn't believe in it but I told her considering the fact that I'm out in the sun for hours a day hiking, biking, mountain biking, . .or jogging I think it would be more foolish to NOT wear sunscreen. I can...

Travis, . . . .being a parent is NOT easy, . . being a single parent, . . . gosh has got to be even harder. You've been through a lot this past year. Sounds like he may be acting out because of the divorce? He is going through that age too where you think you can get away with anything, . .I...

I am so so so sorry, . . . sending you {{hugs}}.

I have to ask why you oppose the word "grandma" so much esp if it is what he called your mother. Is it possible that maybe you dislike the word because of its association with being older? I wouldn't let this dampen the love and joy that this baby is going to bring. Trust me when that baby...

Heck Kathryn, . . you sounded way nicer than I would have been. I mean you even said "Have a nice day!" I would have said "No thanks" and slammed the door in their face. Honestly I'm sure that they've had worse done to them. Sounds like your having one of those bag punching days, . . you...

Wow must be genetic!! Passion, . .drive? Cathe sounds like you! Awesome. I think that is wonderful. Kudos to her. Have fun!

I'm jumping on this bandwagon. Tricia is freakin AWESOME and supportive. And morningstar I actually think you are AWESOME too. I love how you post with honesty, and good advice. I can't say I've ever remember reading anything mean that you've posted.

I really need a good pair of shoes that will work for kickboxing and kenpo class. Can anyone reccomend a website for women. Seems like all the shoes I find are sized for men. Does it matter or are they pretty much uni sex? Thanks everyone.

Hi Kate. What about Muzzy. I think that it is more affordable. I've seen it on ebay. My kids have used Rosetta (spanish) only because my SIL had it (she home schooled her kids). I didn't want to pay for it. http://www.early-advantage.com/ Deffinitely start them early though their brains...

Oh my gosh Nan, . . Amen to you girlie!! High fives to you! You'd win the June Cleaver award in my book! Now that my kids are 9 and 7 they have a list of chores that they do. We sign up every year for the summer reading program AND we have a yearly pass to all the State Parks so we'll go...

Awe thanks. :o I love that name "Sushi!" My favorite food. Chows are so cute, . . like bears. Colorado, . . . I'm daydreaming, . . I'd love to visit there someday. I bet you have great hiking and mountain biking trails. California is deffinitely a doggie paradise but I think that...

You see isn't that interesting. Thanks for the link Lisa. I was trying to tell my neighbor's dog sitter who thinks I'm a nut for wanting a big dog that small dogs, . . well all dogs have dominant agression too but because they are small and more manageable that they probably don't get...

Good for you Tricia! Me too! Me too! (jumping up with my hand raised here) Are they hard to prepare? I love eating veggies but I find that prep work takes some time and since I live in the middle of po dunk no so when I buy my veggies ahead of time they sometime spoil by the time I'm ready...

Thanks Cynthia, . . Mspina. I'm super nervous. I love, love, love the breed and I know it will be a good year before I have a good jogging/hiking buddy (the breeder says no running for a year because of the developing hips), . . .but I can't wait to have my own furry personal trainer...

Hi Mspina. Great thanks! I'll check it out. I read that the SPF only works for up to 5 washings and then you would have to reapply it yourself.

Thanks everyone. Thanks Gayle, . . . I'll be sure to bring a stick with me and hide it in my back pocket. :) I try to say to them that it is not the breed it is the deed and that small dogs can bite just as much as the big dogs they just don't leave that big of a mark as a big dog can and...

Trust me I feel your pain about having to pay for daycare. When was thinking of going back to work again my son was 5 and my daughter 3 they wanted $1,500 a month for full time day care. You know if your husband is going back to school full time, . . .a lot of state or UC colleges have...
