Here's one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0b7QxdubrLI&list=PLoieWSdjTgUL0owghq6DWTiQf2nUcghJ2

But if you're going to watch one you have to watch this...

I was watching Bar Rescue just today! It was about an old artsy female musician who had no business sense whatsoever. I do like those shows. Have you ever watched either Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen...

Wow! Interesting findings. I've been reading Slow Productivity by Cal Newport which talks about the importance of time off. Also, last week I saw a CBS Sunday Morning segment on "laziness" (It...

That sounds like such a cool event, jp!! And such a rewarding volunteer activity! I hope you have a great time with your human and non-human friends! Report back!

Sometimes if you go to church thrift stores they have free bins. At least that's what my Uber-frugal DDIL tells me. All of her clothes are thrifted, and she always looks stylish. She's really an...

I'm not surprised the book was better, so since I hadn't read the book prior to seeing the movie, I really did enjoy the movie. I can't think of too many times I thought the movie was better than the...

I loved Anna Quindlen when she was a columnist for the NYTimes... but I have to admit I never read any of her fiction works. I'll check out Blessings. BTW, I started an audio version of Lessons in...

Wow.. great story.

It's amazing the nerve some people have. I have always been in awe of Frank "Catch Me If You Can" Abegnale--I agree with your SO, jp--that's a great film.

I agree

I ALMOST got into a "discussion" with DH just now. He told me he sent away for an "I Stand With Israel" pin to wear on his lapel. Of course, that's fine with me... I stand with Israel, too, but I...

I wonder how the "frugal Scots" got that reputation... and yes, my in-laws definitely mined a lot of coal. My Ancestry DNA says I'm mostly Irish, but a good chunk of Scots. My maiden name (from my...

Well, those darn peace activists actually changed the course of my life back in 1970, when I was accepted at both St. Joseph College and Boston College. At the time I got my acceptance letters, my...

I'm not sure he's aware of the extent of the issue in Scotland... I'll have to ask him.

When I was probably about 18, maybe 20--it was during the Vietnam War era anyway--I got stopped by the "Man...

This does look like a great story, and I definitely will read it because I love utopian/dystopian sci-fi, but I just don't have time right now, and I'm curious. So I googled the title/author and got...

This is one of my dear frugal Scottish MIL's refrains every time she resisted replacing something or throwing something out:

The dryer that stopped blowing hot air and only blew cold
The car that...

I just finished a very sweet, enjoyable book--Plainsong by Ken Haruf. The stripped down prose really appealed to me, as well as the story itself. I think I'm back to reading fiction. I'll go back to...

Regarding the natural gas vs heat pump, it would be hard for me to compare my old natural gas heating prices in my NJ home with my heat pump prices here because my home here is 1/3 of the size of my...

They are getting much better. The companies up here in VT are doing a bang-up business in heat pumps. We used ours exclusively this winter and it kept up fine with the cold temperatures, but next...

Obviously, this article is of great interest to me, living outside of Burlington and also having purchased heat pumps and having received quotes for solar in the past year. Thanks for posting. I'm...

That is gorgeous! And it matches my garden color scheme of purple and yellow!

So exciting, Tybee!!!

Firing people sucks. I had to fire my project manager because my boss pretty much told me I had to, even though she had worked extremely diligently on her performance improvement plan. I always felt...

That was fun. I certainly do remember all of it--the overall look of the rooms and the color schemes but also the grandma afghans, the triple barometer thing, the macrame, the layers and layers of...

Yes, I think as you go through there is a small box that prompts you to add more detail for more accurate results, but I didn't do that either--I was just ball parking to get some idea of how many...

You live in a small home like I do--I was shocked that 700 sq. ft. is considered a "medium" sized home on the calculator... they must be using global averages--not US ones!
