Finally finished Bridget Jones' Diary. Not too bad. Was getting a bit tedious in the middle, but was an okay ending. May need to watch the movie now/soon.

Not sure what I'm going to pick up. May...

Thanks. I wonder if the old amount easily wipes off to write the new amount on? Would hate to have a scribbled up gc. LOL

What a coincidence! I just bought a LifeStraw water filter last week! It's the just-stick-it-in-the-water-and-use kind though, no bottle. However, I do have a Brita filtered water bottle for daily...

I try to put a tiny piece of tape or post-it on each gift card with the balance written on it. They go into my wallet - which sometimes really makes it hard to open and close! That is my motivation...

Watching more than just your own child/ren is hard! I "babysat" for one other child at one point when my youngest was still pre-school age. It was nice but more work than one realizes. Can't imagine...

Lots going on, SiouzQ! Congrats on being able to work a bit and good luck with all the medical stuff!!!! Thanks for keeping us updated!

I have both worked and been a SAHM during my kids' childhoods. Glad for both experiences, but absolutely TREASURE the time I had at home with my son before he died - and realized from that the value...

Just saw something the other day about cremated remains being "turned into" rocks! Can't remember where or what the cost was, etc, but it was interesting that, instead of receiving a box of ashes, it...

I come from a very large family, so that was job enough for my mother - until my dad left and she had to enter the "real" workforce. Pretty much everyone I knew worked in one manner or another.

I relate to this response a lot right now.

With pending retirement for both dh and myself, I am VERY nervous/worried about finances! I am more of a "I believe it when the money is in hand" type...

Thanks for the update! Glad to hear you got some answers and here's hoping that you will be able to get things properly addressed!!

Nice pictures, everyone. I had gone to my friend's house and we set up chairs in her yard. Got to see most of it. Lost a bit behind the clouds just after mid-way, but clouds cleared for the end. My...

Years ago I gave everyone in the household a little notebook to write down their websites and passwords. Don't know how many of them have kept it up.

I do the financials in the household and have...

Very excited about it! To the point of my best friend and I booked a room in a totality city for Sunday to today. The drive would have taken most of yesterday and we wouldn't have been home until...

Nice, rr. It's always nice to find that little something you've been wanting.

Spaghetti pie.

I hope he has a great trip!

Hi kib, Welcome back! I am another trying to spend less and fly under the radar!

I totally agree with you both, catherine and IL. Being married (or with someone and not married) does not mean being joined at the hip!

On the side, IL, if I may ask, where in Switzerland is your...

Tonight is twice baked stuffed potatoes.

Happy Birthday, Catherine!!!!

Meat and cabbage pie - if I get off my duff to make it. LOL

No dishwasher, but definitely wash the clothes before pending bad weather.

Very nice!!! Congrats!!!

Wow, that is a lot for you to process! Sending prayers and positive energies for a good outcome! Thanks so much for sharing and updating.
