We go out to eat at lunch because it's cheaper. We also have a buffet that all of the kids like (small miracle). We don't go out to the movies often and usually it's just the older two kids. We don't get popcorn or drinks at the theater. My mom will take the kids to the movies and I think she buys them popcorn. She takes them to the movies that I don't want to see. :lol:

My husband and I went out to a pub/restaurant on a date. The music was so loud that we couldn't have a conversation. I had to take a phone call and went outside where the music was also blaring. I had to walk a couple of store fronts away to try to have my conversation. On the menu they had this "cute" thing about how the music was the way they liked it and if you thought it was too loud then too bad. We've ever been back. It's a new chain near us and I've seen several open up. The food was really good but the music was ridiculously loud.

I'm Mormon so I don't get Mormon missionaries proselytizing to me. BUT, I've only ever answered the door to JWs once. I was very excited. My husband thought I'd gone off my rocker. :lol:
Our missionaries like to stop by to use the restroom and get water in the summer. :lol: They know that we're home most of the time and the kids love talking to them.

My kids are different ages but we went from a mini-van seating 7 to a passenger van seating 12. The big deciding factor for us was the fact that the two oldest are taller than me. It was getting very cramped in the 3rd row with the 7, 10, & 13 yo girls. Plus, they were constantly fighting because there was no room. Now we have them all spread out in the big van. Now we can take one vehicle when the grandparents visit.

My 13 yo DD and i saw it last week and thought it was creepy & dumb. Nobody at our football party liked it.

Great info! I'm currently wearing sports bras. Once I lose the rest of this weight, I'll get real bras again.

We go to a friends house. I'm bringing two desserts this year. He always has tons of junky food. I'm watching for the commercials this year.

My kids do karate. They've learned bo staff, bokken sword, nunchucks, kamas, escrima sticks. I think that's all of the weapons. It depends on your studio. Some places don't do any so ask. Also, at our school they don't start weapons until they get to a certain level.

Haven't read the other replies. I did give up caffeine several times. If you drink a lot of caffeine I would NOT go cold turkey. One of the times I gave up caffeine I weaned myself off of it. I was drinking 4 diet sodas a day. I went to 3 for a couple of days, then 2 for a couple of days, then 1 per day, and then 1 every other day, and then none. The caffeine withdrawl headache wasn't as bad. The key is to have an alternative drink to replace your caffeine. So, if you do coffee or tea every morning drink decaf versions. If you like the feel of the soda bubbles get seltzer water (flavored if you need it) to drink. I find that the headache is worse on the 2nd-3rd day and then it's fine. You can do it!!

I have them done for my kids as soon as they can do it. I wish I had it available when I was a kid. I had the metal fillings as a kid and had to get them redone (with composite) because of failure. I had to get a crown on one tooth because the original filling was too big to replace. I have one of the composites that is going to fail soon and will also need a crown because of the size of it. I will do everything in my power to prevent that for my kids.

I follow Erin Brokovich on FB so I've known about the Flint issue for awhile. Like others said it's not the only place having water quality problems. Palin is in the news because she endorsed a candidate for president.

I have a friend who was doing that for awhile. I was thinking about going to one of her parties until I saw the cost. It was $100 just for the spices and then you had to provide all the meat & veggies. I might have bought some things a la carte if I had been able to taste things first but no way I was spending that much for something that I couldn't sample first.

I'm on the other side of the state so I'm not as familiar with the towns on the east side. I would probably try to rent the place on campus and then drive around to the closer towns and see what they're like.

My first had it. He was gaining weight like crazy because he nursed all the time. The ped didn't really believe me that there was a problem until he projectile vomited while she was in the room. I had to go off all dairy and he was on meds for a little bit. Keeping him upright helped a little bit. I was given "permission" to let him sleep on his stomach.

I think the point is to just read it regardless of the version. Since she's recommended both, I would think either one would be fine. :thumbup:

I wear Saucony Cohesion. I walk 3 miles 4-5 days a week. I get about 4 months before my feet start hurting. I buy mine at Rack Room Shoes. They usually have a buy one get one half off sale going on. At this point I don't even have to try them on anymore. I just grab my pair in whatever color combination the store has. Nike shoes have never felt good on my feet. I like Ryka but they are hard to find and usually not in my price range anyway.

I watched the first episode last night. :cursing:

Sounds intriguing. Where can I find it?

We had one gift from my sister that was broken. It was a cute snowman platter. But she didn't protect it very well in shipping it to us. I'm just hoping that she didn't pay the $20 that was on the price sticker. I won't mention it to her though. The one that really upset me is the marble statue that I really wanted. DH got it for me and it arrived a couple of weeks ago. It was sitting in the shipping box until Christmas. He almost forgot to give it to me. When we opened it up the head has mold on it. :crying: I'm hoping that it can be cleaned. I don't want to try anything until we call the company on Monday.

My kids wake up early every morning. :lol:
