Could it be Exploring America by the Notgrasses? I believe first they wrote it in the early 2000's.

Praying!

Yep, I thought it was librarians, too.

This cover is worse than the blonde on the cover of Anne of Green Gables.

If I'm remembering correctly, more teamwork in the workplace became common in the 70's and 80's when Japanese cars began to sell well in the US. Automakers started to follow the trend, and it continued to spread through the corporate world.

Another vote for dark gray or dark navy. Also, check Macy's for a good price on men's suits. They almost always have a sale plus a coupon. Usually the Macy's in the more expensive areas of town have the larger men's departments with more helpful staff, and the prices are the same. Best wishes!

Strange double post.

I'm in the southeast. Our milk is usually $2.99 non-organic. Eggs have taken a jump lately, and the cheapest are now $1.89 a dozen.

It was revamped last fall and through the spring.

You're welcome!

You might want to choose to lie on the couch and have the kiddos around instead of schooling on the bed. We tried schooling on the bed after surgery and every little move the kids made caused me to yelp in pain. Best wishes as you heal and try to school your kiddos.

Ds had to do an online video with questions before he could move into the dorms freshman year. It mainly covered drugs, alcohol, and mental health. There was also a section on date rape. I think it took about an hour for him to complete.

Either homemade or Trader Joe's brand

The crockpot 365 website has only gluten free recipes. Maybe you can find some inspiration there. There's a huge variety of recipes. Best wishes as you find what works best.

Since the goal of the company is to merge the two departments with your husband at the lead, could he assume the additional duties for a specified time before moving into a new position/ job title? It would be more hours and the same pay the short term, but his original position would still be there if the plan didn't work out. Just thinking of this as a safeguard since it appears that a higher position is being offered which didn't exist before.

So far, we've bought clothes through college -- all boys who would probably wear clothes to shreds if I let them. If we had someone wanting expensive clothing, then I'd probably just give them x amount of dollars towards it. The monetary difference would be up to them. We also pay for the $10 add a line dumb phone through college and so far none of them have upgraded for the extra money. I think dh and I have gotten off easy, so far.

When my guys were in the dump it all out stage in the toddler years, I only allowed one container of toys at a time. It had to be completely picked up ( with mom's help and the clean-up song ) before anything else could be gotten out. As they got older and stopped dumping things out, the Lego guys got to ride the train while the Lincoln Logs were launched to stop the guys on the pirate ship from storming the castle. Sometimes, I miss those days. ETA: To clarify -- We kept the toy containers put away so that mom or an older sibling had to get them out. Otherwise, it was a dump fest!

That was awesome! That's for sharing it.

We've had some of the same challenges. Our solution was a good, long talk between dh and I were we cleared the air about our frustrations, unreal expectations, and my guilt about doing anything besides being home when he was awake. We decided together that homeschooling was a priority for us and that it had to happen. First we tried adjusting our schedule to his, and that was a disaster for us. We missed so many outings that we wanted to do, and frankly I became lazy about getting anything done. Finally we settled on not always being at home when dh was awake but being sure to return home for at least a couple of hours of family time. If we were home, then schoolwork happened as usual after a few good mornings and hugs. Best wishes as you find a solution.

Okay, I can see that explanation. Thanks!

Hmmm, not sure that I understand this.

Okay, that makes sense. I' m still going to have to think on it some more. Don't you just hate it when something trivial crosses your mind and takes up lodging?

Today I was behind a car with a lot of bumper stickers that supported women's equality. Most were self explanatory, but one puzzled me. I can't remember the exact words ( and googling has probably left a permanent blush on my face ) but it was something like, " What's in a man's pants is never equal to what's contained in a woman's mind. " Can someone in the hive educate me on this?
