Hi all! I'm a bit of a lurker here but I love reading everyone's posts, they really get me moving! So I got a job yesterday, yay! I'm a nurse and I'm going back after being home with the kids for 10 years. Unfortunately for financial reasons I've had to take the full-time position. So now I...

my 10 year old decided to heat up a piece of pizza for a minute in foil in our built in microwave while i was downstairs working out. there is a small pinhole in the mesh of the door but not all the way through and a small black mark on the back of the oven. i of course can't get a hold of DH...

Good afternoon all. I have a question for any of you who have or had a lease before. We are about to turn in a 3 year lease on a toyota. We took very good care of it, DH only drove it 5 miles to work. My question is, do we have any leverage to negotiate the disposition fee or anything they...

DH and I are trying to consolidate our debt. It's not much but it's frustrating how much we pay to the credit cards to pay them off and they just raised their rates on us(we have great credit btw). I called the mortgage company and they can give us a 15 year mortgage for only a little more than...

Hi everyone. Happy Friday! Quick question for you all, can any of you recommend a decent(cheap) pedometer? I want to start wearing one to get my tush in gear and get ready for vacation! I saw one for about $30 on Amazon called Omron premium. I really don't want to spend more than that if I...

I just wanted to let you all know how my testing went yesterday since you were all so kind as to send prayers and positive thoughts my way. I went for the D&C and hysteroscopy and it turns out that my uterus was full of polyps! Who knew? So the doc removed them and doesn't see anything out of...

Hi everyone. Just hoping I could get some positive thoughts headed my way today. I'm off to the gyn to get my test results relating to some problems I've been having. I'm really nervous considering my family history and I'd really love to get some good news so I can head on my vacation next...

Does anyone have this? Is it worth it? DH and I wanted to do P90X to improve ourselves and mostly to look good on our trip for our 10th in April:) Unfortunately due to the wonderful economy and the holidays, it is not in our budget for a while and we want to get kick started after Christmas...

Thank you for that mp3 site to download songs! You just saved me $$$ for gift cards for 3 kids. Now I can get a "family" gift for $35. Thanks again, have a great Thanksgiving!

Anyone use or know of a cheap reputable download site? DH and I want to get the kids gift cards to use for their songs rather than spend $11 on a CD that they only listen to 2 songs:) Thanks.

DH and I were winterizing the lawn mower and emptied the gas tank. Well it emptied on our clothes and sneaks. I ran it through the washer 4 times and not only are the clothes just as bad, now the washer stinks and I have a ton of wash to do(kids have stomach bug, need I say more:( ) Any ideas...

I made these for the first time this weekend and they were delicious, my kids loved them. However, I had a problem with them holding together like a bar. I just felt like we were eating granola cereal. Any suggestions? The recipe called for 2 eggs, honey, and peanut butter. I'm not an...

Hi all! This goes along the lines of the cheap tricks thread. I headed over to the local Target yesterday(I live in Syracuse, NY) and they had so much on clearance. They are changing seasons so they are getting rid of a ton of stuff. I got my 2 little ones school supplies for the remainder...

I'm desperate! I just got a call from my SIL saying her son has lice:( We stayed with them this weekend and now I'm freaking out that my 2 youngest are infested. I'm scratching everywhere and washing EVERYTHING! They are in school now so I can't check them until they get home. Do any of you...

I just wanted to send out my thoughts and prayers to the space coast and all of FL right now. We recently moved from Melbourne and our families are still down there dealing with Tropical Storm Fay which is badly flooding the area. Sending good vibes that Fay goes Away! Hang in there FL!

OK so we just got a 10 week old yellow lab a week and a half ago. He is cute as a button and very lovable. My problem is he won't sleep at night. I know he is just a baby but since I stay at home, I'm the one who is sleeping downstairs with him at night and I'm exhausted. We run him ragged...
