Oh good! Thanks! ~Holly

My hubby listens to audio books on his little MP3 before bed many nights. He mostly uses LibriVox. Has anyone downloaded audio books on their Kindle from LibriVox or any other site? I'm wondering if the voice is the actual download...or, if Kindle has it's own "voice." Do you like the audio feature? Any other opinions or info? Thanks! ~Holly

Thanks! ~Holly

I'm trying to surprise him. I doubt access to library e-books would be top on the list. He is more into church history and the Reformation right now. I did check...and, our library has e-book capability. ~Holly

Thanks. I'll take a look at those, too. ~Holly

Thanks for the input regarding lighted case vs non-lighted. ~Holly

Thanks so much, everyone! ~Holly

I was considering buying a Kindle 3G for my hubby for his birthday...but, there are quite a few lower reviews on Amazon regarding problems. I understand that I have to put it into perspective here...out of 13,000 reviews...only 1200+ are a 1-3 star. However, I'd like some opinions from anyone here who has one. I have three friends that have the Wi-Fi...but, not the 3G and they love theirs. Of course, I haven't asked if they've had any problems since I hadn't really done any research on them till recently. Thanks! ~Holly

No, she is not getting "reply" responses from me. No, I don't have a typo. She has had the same e-mail address since she got a computer...and, I have it saved in my address book. it's the same one I always use. I have asked her to check her spam and trash folders...but, I'm not sure she knows how to do that. Thanks! ~Holly

Do you ever have issues getting e-mails from people? My aunt has a Juno e-mail account...and, in the past 2-3 weeks...she has not been getting any of my e-mails. However, she can send them to me and I receive them. We can't figure out if the issue is on our end or her end. My other friends and family members are getting everything I send, but they do not have Juno accounts. Any help? Thanks! ~Holly

I made them last year frying them in oil on top of the stove. It was a bit of a mess, but my family sang my praises for days! They still ask me when I'm going to make them, again! Here is the recipe I used: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/A-Plus-Fair-Corn-Dogs/Detail.aspx Make sure to read the tips / reviews on using a cup for dipping the hot dogs...cutting the hot dogs in half before dipping, etc. Also, I followed someone's suggestion about rolling the dogs in flour (or corn starch) before dipping. Also, I did not use as much oil as was called for in the recipe. ~Holly

I hope someone can answer this...because I was thinking of moving on to R&S after FLL. Is this the first time you have found "unexplained issues" like this? ~Holly

Awww...thanks so much, everyone! Smiles! ~Holly

Yes. Since I was starting the program with my girls, also...I decided it would be easier to do it with all three of them at the same time. Also, I knew my son needed to start at the beginning to get all the spelling rules. I told him the first level was going to be very easy for him...but, he needed the foundation for the program. I think the fact that he was very successful with the first level helped his confidence, also. If I had been doing it with just him, I think we would have finished that first level in one month. It took closer to two months since I was also doing it with my younger girls. I have a feeling there will come a time when I have to move forward with him and slow it down for my girls...but, we'll see. I hope that helps! ~Holly

Here is the final product! I got the handles and lining sewn in yesterday. I'm very happy with it...being my first try at Intarsia and first time felting. Smiles! ~Holly

Struan is my white whale! Smiles I've never been able to master Struan. I've tried it several times. Any tips? ~Holly

No advice...because my kiddos are still young. But, I wanted to tell you that my counsin and his wife homeschooled their children...even when thy were missionaries in Napal. Their two daughters graduated as RNs and their son went to Annapolis...and, is now a flight instructor for the Navy. Smiles! ~Holly

Since he likes to grind his beans...have you considered a French Press? This is the only thing we use to make coffee. ~Holly

Good point regarding the "exclusive" wording. Thanks! ~Holly

No, free shipping is not a year-around thing. ~Holly

Thanks! I had forgotten about checking Amazon. ~Holly

Does anyone know if Target will be carrying the Lego Harry Potter Daigon Alley set? I've asked at our local Target store...plus, I even called Lego to ask. Target had no idea...and, the Lego rep said, "...(pause)...MAYbe. However, we can't assure you their price would not be higher than the Lego On-line Store." Now, to me...that pause with the "maybe" answer meant "yes." But, I could be reading into his answer. I know Target carried all the other sets... ?? Does anyone know for sure? I just hate spending the money on shipping if Target will carry it for the same price. My son is chomping at the bit to get that set! Thanks! ~Holly

I completely agree! Knitting, sewing, crocheting... Sitting down at the piano is also a great stress reliever for me. ~Holly

What bugs me most when I use a phrase like SAHM...is that people have actually come back with, "Oh, so you don't work." Grrrr!! ~Holly

I like this one! Great answer!! ~Holly
