    Getting older/ No kids

    Dorothy, Let me put it another way. DH and I are taking care of ourselves and investing our money, hoping that these things will work for us when we are in our golden years. We are also very independent and prefer to care for ourselves for as long as we can and when we can't we plan on...

    Getting older/ No kids

    I have a daughter but I would never assume she would take care of me in my old age. I would never burden her with that. I welcome an assisted living facility so I can remain independent!

    RYKA N-GAGE II

    Well, the new dog has been a disaster.

    Laura, I'm sorry this happened but you have got to know, this is what territorial dogs do. I know from experience because I went through this about five years ago. First, if you really want to add another dog, you need to do some internet surfing on introducing dogs into your home...
