Don't feel bad, I used to post/read a lot over a number of years. I haven't been here in over a year but I'm eating lunch at my desk and need a bit of an escape. No one missed me either apparently,...
Thanks for the replies! I read them over the holiday and then did not get back as we were finally moving.
We talked to BIL and decided we are going to plan on doing the day camp, but we didn't do...
I haven't posted a lot here because I have been swamped with school and working on fixer upper that DH and I bought in August. Some of the long time posters may remember my DH's family...always a...
I'm not sure if I've done math, but I work in IT and there have been many a dream where I have programmed in my dreams. DH says he knows he is too wrapped up in a project if he is coding in his...
A couple of years ago we drove through Utah and got to a hotel and they had those little stands of tourist crap...I started poking through it and one was for Best Friends! I was so disappointed we...
It took me two years to get another dog after my beloved yellow lab died of cancer. The sadness and grief was overwhelming for a month or so. It was truly like a member of the family died. We did...
Here is where we stayed - http://www.recreation.gov/camping/Ben_Rover_Cabin/r/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NRSO&parkId=75206&topTabIndex=Search

We don't do a ton of gifts anyway...but, I shared a link on FB about giving experiences instead of gifts, and we were together this weekend talking about it. We are going to try to do that instead...
Historically, mine is...
mortgage (paid off one, got another :/ )
grocery (food and household...does include the occasional adult beverage, but cheap beer/wine suits us)
utilities (which I lump...
Mira, thanks for bringing this topic up. I'm right there with you with the same questions and worries. I totally appreciated everyone's answers! I don't know when a "right time" will be for me,...
I'm so sorry to hear about your beloved doggie.
I read an interesting article a year or so back about smokers and obese people...that they die so much earlier and of fairly quickly life ending diseases, that they rarely have all the drawn out...
I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. My lab had cancer when he was six years old. The vet was not sure what it was at the time as it was showing as a huge blockage on the x-ray. At that point we...
The thought of the Cato Institute propagating a liberal agenda made me LOL.
We stayed in a forest service cabin near glacier. It was pretty spartan and they book up early, but it was great for wildlife viewing. It was on the river and we saw deer, black bear, and a...
This week highs are in the 80s, so apparently the heat coming on was a false alarm. I hate cold weather, so I am glad to have a warm week!
I've mentioned my next door neighbor before. She is a feisty old woman (in her 80s) and has some very outdated thoughts on race. She didn't talk to us for six months after DH put up an Obama sign...
I bought a groupon recently for a restaurant and it went out of business before I could use it :/
Most of my unfrugal regrets are related to the house renovation. DH didn't realize not ALL the...
Not yet, it has just started to get chilly here (southern US). But, temps are dipping down to the high 20s F tonight AND we are having company. DH and I could probably bear one cold night with lots...
Haha, I love it. My big grey cat (who is my avatar) is alpha queen of the house over the other cat and three dogs. She will sit in the middle of my labs' beds just like that. Sometimes though,...
I know of some decent manufactured homes/trailer park communities along the Gulf of Mexico...a lot of retired people. I would definitely consider living in something like that. I would like to have...
After I wrote that I wondered if I used the wrong word, because I definitely think many aspects of today's lifestyles and consumerist society NEED people to cast some judgment. On the other hand, I...
My mom is the Beta type through and through...she worked part time for a number of years and then when we got a little older went back full time. In the late 90s her employer encouraged her to go...
Much of my job is done on the internet but sometimes I need to know things like various folk's family connections. My grandmother (in her mid 80s) has lived in this area since college and loves to...
I believe for medical transcription you have to have knowledge of the medical terminology and codes that they use in the industry. I know someone who took some coursework in it and still had trouble...
