  1. We have a Thule. It has come in handy.
  2. Chacco sandals beat out keen sandals for me. Much better arch support.
  3. I attached some jingle bells to ribbon for our yorkie. He would just stand at the door and not make any noise. It saved many a mess! Eventually he transitioned away from them and came to find us or would bark. Best invention in the why didn't I think of that category.
  4. Laundry Laundry Laundry (yuk) Work at figuring out flooring for remodel Clean up ladders from weekend painting Schedule dr appointment Start to pack up kitchen cabinets Call on dumpster
  5. MN. it was a wide spread ugly idea! Got 2 coats of primer on ( ceiling had stains) and the 1st coat of paint with the in laws help. :)
  6. Me. Up today...paint the newly un-popcorned living room ceiling! And paint the walls and start on the trim. All done as step 1 to the new flooring as part of the kitchen remodel. It is open (living /dining /kitchen )so it will now be 1 floor throughout not 3. New cabinets are on order!
  7. Maybe the people really don't want to live next to a gossipy, nosy neighbor?
  8. I'm sorry, it is a difficult thing. I was diagnosed at age 3. I have been on many different meds over the course of things. I hope you can find the right ones for you soon. Remicade infusions pulled me out of my last bigger flare followed by a big diet change (specific carbohydrate diet, then introduced more foods and am now gluten free and minimal dairy)
  9. Outside classes, some regular (science, American history/government and pe), some extra (piano, art)
  10. Thanks for your feedback. I also forgot that science is more than covered with some outside classes and dd1's natural interest.
  11. Gargle apple cider vinegar. Nasty, but it works.
  12. If you only had 3 days a week for school, every other week 4 days, what would you focus on and how would you structure your days/weeks? The days we have out of the house we could maybe get 1-2 things done. We will do Story of the World audio and other audio books in the car. 3rd and 5th grades.
  13. Our library has kits with a picture book and audio to check out as a kit. We used those when they were younger (like curious george aND similar). Now they listen to audio books most nights.
  14. What brand is it? We have Genesis bows for the kids. If you are in a city, check regulations. We have an acre lot and can't shoot the bow on site as it is equivalent to discharging a firearm.
  15. MN north shore area. Several great state parks with day hike options
  16. I reached a point with my dd where I gave her a chart to use so we could move on to multiple digit multiplication and then division (Math U see). She understood the concept so i figured the mastery of facts would come, and it has.
  17. No opinion on color. We did a natural maple. But what I do love is the tall height vanity we made.
  18. Leftover pulled pork and baked beans. Corn and some rice cauliflower on the side
  19. Medallion is one of the brands we have a quote on We have a couple of local guy quotes coming in too. DH would never go for IKEA. He wants all plywood construction. We built our last set of cabinets and just don't have the time this go round. Thank you! I am still tweaking the final design and options. It is a small space we have to work with but I am trying to arrange everything in my head and make the best use of space. We have a lot of wasted space I feel. Drawers in the lower cabinets are something I am considering. Either that or doors with pull out shelves. Not sure which I'd prefer. I'm sorry. That really stinks. Thank you! We are really intrigued by this! It might be the perfect compromise between building everything and just ordering from the big box stores. I have requested a quote from them as well. If anyone has layout tips or other things they like or wish they had, I'd love to hear them. One thing I want is garbage cans in a cabinet. We have a U shape layout with a peninsula separating the kitchen from the dining area. I am debating if I do a counter to soffit cabinet to "end" off the kitchen.
  20. Do you have a brand you can recommend to use or recommend to avoid? We are looking to do our kitchen soon.
  21. The state parks here have camper cabins. They have bunk beds and a table. They also have heat and electricity (most anyways). You have to cook outdoors and bring sleeping bags We use them early or late in the season so we don't have to worry about overnight temps. Still have to walk to the bathrooms too.
  22. We do. We had a Scamp trailer and sold it when we got grandpa's fishing boat. We do tents or camper cabins depending on the trip. We also stay at a rustic resort sometimes. It has a dry sink and private outhouse. The girls have gone since they were babies. Dd1 was 11 months on her first trip and dd2 was 5 months.
