It's rectangle-vertical. Thanks for trying to help!

Well, maybe the your inlaws have is the same one. I just email the previous owner with the link to see if it is the same one. We now live in different states, so hopefully she won't mind too much that I'm copying her. Thanks for your help!

Keep looking! Except now I'm not sure...I think it was just black and white, no other colors...

I know this is silly, but I'm quite desperate. We just bought a house and the people before me had done a great job decorating it. We were able to purchase some things from them, but not my favorite piece. They had a black and white picture of a huge tree with a fence in the background. I’ve already emailed the lady asking from where she got the picture and she told me. Costco! Unfortunately she couldn’t remember the name of the print and I simply cannot find it elsewhere. I HAVE to have it! I’m stuck on this print and I must get it! Does anyone one know what picture I’m talking about and where can I find it?

I was going to say the same thing as the previous poster. The only way to know if the contractions are harmless is to be ckecked out. I also went into pre-term labor wich started with BH contractions at around 18 wks. I'm sure the anxiety over your dad doesn't help either...

I probably have black soldier flies in addition to regular house flies. It looks like I need to learn more about composting. So far I've just been dumping my kitchen leftovers, but no fat and meat (I learned that from here long ago), grass clippings, hair from my boys' haircuts, and dry leaves, but I have no more leaves around. I'm going to empty the bin tonight and turn it. Hopefully the smell and fly combination will scare my neighbors and they'll move away. (They like partying outside my bedroom window ALL NIGHT LONG!)

Since moving to a new house and having a yard, I started a compost pile for the first time. My city gave me a compost "bin", which actually is an old trash can with the bottom cut off and holes drilled in the sides. So it's basically an open barrel. We've only had it for less than 2 months and we have tons of flies. Not just regular flies, but flies that are about an inch long and nasty looking. You can hear and see the maggots moving around the garbage! I'm literally having nightdmares about maggots. They are thick, long, and brown. What can I do to stop the maggot production? I can't afford to buy another composter ($200). Another thing I don't like about this bin is that I can't really turn the compost around. What should I do?

Thanks.

How do you use it for high school? I had my (advanced) 7th grader read it this year as part of school, but didn't require anything else. He read it twice, I think.

If you are willing to pay to repair/refinish the floors, are you willing to put down carpet and then remove it when move out? even the chapest carpet will last 4-5 years. I have no idea, though, if carpet and collies go together, so forgive me if this is a dumb suggestion.

You have time to think about "school" for the two-year-old?! I'm impressed. I have a toddler and I feel great accomplishment if I manage to squeeze a few minutes of reading to him.

My son is 10, almost 11, finishing 5th grade and hasn't had formal writing lessons (he's just finishing R&S 5, but hasn't had any other formal LA) He has a pretty good writing style, but I don't think he can write a real essay with intro, thesis, etc. With what student intensive level should he start?

We've used TLP with my speech delayed child. We were doing a lot of other things, so it's hard to tell if TLP helped or if it was the combination of things. I also did the program and I can honestly say that I can "hear" music better, some sounds that used to bother me, aren't a problem any more, and I'm pretty sure I can sing better ( I can carry a tune and my husband can recognize it; it didn't use to be like that). HTH

Oh, ok. Thanks.

I have Apologia Zoology 1: Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day that I'd like to sell. How do I get permission to post?

Thank you so much! I understand now. I think the problem is with all the abbreviations.

I already have R&S English 3 and used it with one of my children. R&S doesn't have much writing. Does FLL3 teach writing, not just grammar?

For various reasons, I've decided to send my oldest son to ps next year. He'll be going into the 8th grade. He is currently doing TT Algebra1 and is half way through the book. He is averaging a high B. He'll be taking a math placement test next month and I'm worried that he won't do well on it. I looked briefly at a friend's 7th grade book yesterday and it seems there are things we haven't covered, even though it sounds so good to say he is in Algebra 1. Anyone can tell me what I need to be reviewing/teaching him before the test so he can at least place at grade level? We are in CA. Thanks ALOT!

I need something that will take us from the beginning of writing (sentences) to HS research papers. I hear that IEW does this, but looking at their website makes me even more confused. What do I need to get started? I don't want to invest so much money and find out I ordered the wrong set/materials. Please help!

One student book is enough if you plan on working with them one at a time, otherwise you need two. I order directly from the Rod&Staff 606-522-4348 or look for used. The books are hard cover so they hold up well. HTH

I am looking for the Open Letter to parents (I think Laurie4b wrote it). It is a classic! It is the one where she talks about how you have a recipe for lots of problems and regrets or you can have a recipe for "celebration cake". Anyone know what I'm talking about?

What is a reasonable rate for occupational therapy for a child? For adult? Thanks.

Never mind. It's not worth the time trying to save $2.

Oh, I have plenty to order for me, but this is for a close friend, and she knows I'm, cheap and won't mind a strange addition to the book I'm sending her. So now that you know the rest of the story, what do you think?
