My weekly shopping lists often have some generic business/political ad/fundraising verbiage on the back. I inherited a paper cutter and these often come in the mail printed on very nice paper, so if...

This is really good to hear, as we just moved my mother to a retirement community this week. Right now, she’s really missing the house she lived in for the last thirty years.

I also feel bad for the kids and agree with sweetana3.

I personally don't want to dive into the reasons for the split, but I struggle with people who have a career that is, at least in part,...

Well done!

I let my boss know in person (actually, via phone call as I was in a different office and state) and gave several weeks notice, as my job was somewhat specialized and they needed time to decide what...

I subscribe to the Simple Living Works! podcast through iTunes. Bi-weekly podcasts that touch on various components of Voluntary Simplicity based on the Living More with Less (book by Doris...

I have been struggling with finding a simple system with which to prioritize and manage my time, as well as organize my meeting and project notes (I work outside the home as a corporate trainer). ...

+1 to this choice. Hard to believe he's been gone nearly 30 years. For #2, maybe Joe's partner Vicki Robin?

$25, tip included about every 8-9 weeks. So that's about $150-ish. I don't color my hair and haven't had a perm since the late eighties, which helps keep the cost down.

Rational.

Congratulations on your healthy, beautiful addition to the family!

Currently reading The Gods of Gotham by Lyndsey Faye and am enjoying it - it's set in the in the mid 1840s and is about a "copper star" in the early days of what is now the NYPD. It did take me...

Capote wrote the short story from which this film is derived. "Breakfast" is on many 'classic movies' lists; I'm not a giant fan of Truman Capote and think the story is kind of sad, but -- if you...

Sincerest condolences. Thank you for rescuing your dog and making these few years wonderful for him.

Congratulations, Kelli and Stella on your awesome news!

I have a couple of friends from long ago and far away and FB's a way for us to stay in touch - years ago, we used to write one another real letters, and this is the new version, I guess. DH comes...

I'd have to say no, because I can't imagine getting together with him in the first place if we didn't share values. And we've sort of evolved into SL together over the last 20-odd years.

Stella - I don't really have much to add; your Plan B appears to be very sound, as I don't see a lot of other options for your sister. Once she gets over this fresh blow (won't comment on what I...

Fill it to the rim....with Brim.

Well, it's a piece of history, so it's an important story...but this is where our 24-hour news culture has gotten us. Back in the days of Paul IV, this event would have rated a chunk of the 6...

Meet the swinger Polaroid Swinger, meet the swinger Polaroid Swinger, It's more than a camera, it's almost alive, it's only nineteen dollars and ninety-five...

What Steve said, for sure.

Also, I began my working life at 18 in a moderately high-end boutique which had simply beautiful, classic clothes, mostly made in the US (this was the mid-to-late 70s). ...

Thanks to one and all for your thoughtful responses. At this point, I responded to her e-mail with something along the lines of "you have my prayers" and nothing since. If I get an opportunity to...

Everything mentioned above, and, jeans that are strategically holey/frayed so that underwear shows through the holes. I live in rural E TN, and I've seen it all. Except the kilts, which would be a...

I love Smartwool hiking socks, and I discovered a doppelganger at Sam's called Omniwool, for about 2/3 less. Even nicer, they're made in the US. I know you're looking for dressier socks, so you...
