Not sure what rack you would need but I would get a fan (box fan or something) and set it near the racks to help circulate the air.

You mean like water boots? I have just always bought them at walmart. The one time I spent way more buying a "better" pair they didn't last.

It's not very exciting or personalized, but I'd go with gift cards to a home improvement store for the million little things that suddenly need to be bought, or to restaurants.
This is what I did for my brother. I knew there were things they wanted to do but were short on funds.

My dh wants a tractor seat for his bike :lol:

We have taken the kids to see a more local minor league team. I just hate seeing professional athletes earning 20+ million dollars a year but I guess if people pay to support it then they do. I just see that as income enough to support 250 families a year with a middle class income.
What really bothers me is the ones making that much money and don't seem to enjoy the game. :( I know it is a job and with every job comes disappointments/hardships but what a job to have.

If you have a minor league team nearby I would recommend trying that. We would love to go to a major league game (Go Cardinals) but it would be to much and to far. We have a minor league team not to far. They even have special nights where admission is super cheap and they have super cheap snacks.

I have a pretty well stocked pantry. I buy things on sale and plan from there. So if ground beef & say canned veggies is on sale this week I really stock up on it then pick up a few other items we need. Put the ground beef in the freezer in various ways (some raw, some shaped into patties, some browned & and drained). The next week it might be chicken breasts and spag. sauce. I do the same again.
Then I generally make my "loose" plans from what I have on hand or what is in the sale paper for the week. I say loose plans because I just make up a list of meals and then each day choose from one of them and fix it.
Maybe not the best way but that is what I do.

Dh was in disbelief when I put all our cassettes out in a yard sale for 25c each. I told him we didn't even have a cassette player anymore. He got over it. Did the same with our vhs tapes. Didn't have a player, tired of looking at them. Anything that didn't sell went straight to Goodwill.

:biggrinjester: Happy 50th Birthday :party:
:grouphug: to all those with clueless husbands. I have one of those myself. He will forget my birthday, valentines, our anniversary but he will remember his and talk about/tell me what he wants for his birthday. Has told me before "you can get me ____ for valentines" then not get me anything. Christmas he tells me "just pick out something you want, buy it and wrap it :glare:
As dss have gotten older near Christmas they have started telling him "hey we need to go get something for mom." Sometimes he tells them he "ordered" something (meaning he told me to pick out my gift).
Other times he will actually take the boys to the store to buy a gift but he has no clue what so ever what to get me. The boys generally pick it out.
I am proud to say that near Christmas they start really paying attention to things I pick up and make comments about in the store.
I generally get something I mentioned liking or needing if they pick it out.

It lasts forever here. I wish they sold it in smaller boxes, because we like to eat it once in awhile, but generally tire of it long before the box is done.
Have you checked places like the Dollar Tree and I even saw some at walmart. They had some boxes that looked to be about 1/2 box size for $1.

2 teenage boys = way to quick
Do you wash all clothing after wearing once?

From US and I wash as needed. Most of the time pants get worn several times, shirts if worn for a short time and smell clean get worn a second time.
Dss will not put their jeans in the wash even if they are dirty if they know they are going to be doing dirty jobs the next day (unless they are wet)
