I voted other. It should depend on the situation and never be based on in-laws trying to obligate their children and families to visit with any particular frequency. It especially should not be healthy elders expecting frequent visits while never being willing to come to their children. Both of our parents live a similar distance from us. When our kids were younger and our primary social connection was family, we visited both sets of parents weekly and looked forward to it. Now we see each other 2-3 times a month, but it more frequently involves them coming here. Our lives just got crazier. One parent is grumpy about it, but fortunately knows we won't change our minds and so doesn't bug us about it. I do appreciate the question, "We've been missing you, when can we get together?"

Living in Chattanooga, TN, I drive to and in Atlanta fairly frequently. On the interstates, if you are only going 10 miles an hour over the speed limit, you better be in the right lane. I usually follow the speed limit, but in Atlanta it is not possible to do so safely.

My brother prefers chlor-tabs. They are just a 4 hour pill, but inexpensive, OTC, and effective. DH also has the RX eyedrops Pataday which seem to help.

We dropped level 2 for the youngest, but I have been happy with it for level 4 and level 7.

Any chance she could be reacting to pollen on her person/clothing? Did these reactions occur close to a time of being outdoors? Windows open allowing pollen on the table perhaps?

In my experience, I only get RSVPs from people who are coming. So when I've gotten no responses I've also had no attendees.

I've started getting more brutal about getting rid of clothes. I used to keep too many things just because they were in good condition. Now I get rid of things that are too bulky, unloved, annoying to launder, duplicates, less loved because of new purchases, hard to match, etc. Your kids are old enough to help. Every once in a while I ask my kids to go through their clothes and tell me what they want to get rid of and what is too small. Then I make a donation pile and pass down things to younger siblings if the younger sibling likes the items.

The Good & the Beautiful is unique and affordable. Its popularity has been growing by leaps and bounds and it is still being built. There are other good curricula, but nothing like it I've seen.

Quinoa and riced cauliflower are good replacements for rice. Against the Grain has a pizza that may be ok. Check for soy as I am not sure. Definitely go for potatoes. Google for Paleo whatever for recipes. My husband enjoys bean pasta.

Man, my daughter just started level 7. That stinks. I wasn't worried about buying it because of the good resale value. So much for that.

I agree with the others who suggested separating chores and allowance. I have not succeeded in getting my kids to do much of their own accord. The dishwasher has been their job for 4 years and I still have to remind them every day. They don't usually complain though, since they know it's their job. The main thing I am trying to teach is that everyone lives here, so everyone helps. I think this lesson is starting to sink in. My middle daughter is a natural. She could handle the instruction "Go clean your room." at age 3. If she were an only, I am sure she would have regularly done her list from a very young age.

Their quality has gone majorly downhill lately. The seam came out in a pair of yoga pants I bought my daughter after a month or so. I have another pair of yoga pants from them that have lasted through probably thousands of wearings. They were my oldest's favorite pants for about 5 years.

My grandparent's RV was in addition to their manufactured home in a community.

This is true, however, it is mitigated by being farther inland. My grandparents aren't at risk of being evacuated for a minor hurricane.

The law in Florida now requires homeowner's insurance to cover sinkholes.

My grandparents retired to Florida about 20 years ago. They bought a trailer (much better quality than anything I've seen in TN) in a community that maintains the grounds and provides activities. Initially they spent most of the year traveling in their RV. They then retired full time to their Florida house. Their community owned park is a great fit as they age. A fair number of their neighbors are snowbirds, but the snowbirds tend to stay full time in Florida eventually. I would look for something in a similar community with the long term plan of staying in Florida full time when their health or energy level requires it.

Swearing around: unprofessional and inappropriate. Swearing at: They should be fired.

The new position sounds like a better fit. I think you'll find the expense and stress reduction of working from home worth the pay cut. The fact that you like the work better is great long term.

We drove a rental on vacation. It did not fit our luggage. We brought one full size suitcase. It did not fit in the back; we had to fold down one of the back seats to make a spot for it. Other than that, it wasn't bad. My dh tends to tire and get sore easily while driving and he did not struggle with the huge amount of driving on our trip.

TT online is still in beta and only available by invitation.

I would definitely get allergy testing in this case, food and environmental.
