  1. Congratulations! Korea! I'd start planning a vacation there.

  3. I'm not crazy about our house but it checked a lot of boxes (even if I don't like how it checked the boxes) when we bought it. Fortunately, we bought when foreclosures were happening and now we have a lot of equity. We are in the process of refinancing to remodel. I think after that we will enjoy our house a lot more even if it isn't our dream home. In 6 years or so we hope to sell and find our next home and I hope that will be our dream home.

  6. That's terrific. My kiddos have numerous bio siblings and this is something I've thought about before. Btw, I'm in the area and A stormy front just came through. Hopefully, you'll have good weather now.
  7. Allergies can easily turn to sinus infections/bronchitis. I'm dealing with that right now. Never hurts to just check it out. I don't run off to the doctor for any ol thing either.
  8. http://www.fcseducation.org/housing--interior-design.html These are geared towards high school but I used them to teach 6/7 graders. If you google you will find the supporting PowerPoint presentations and worksheets. I used them as my spine but modified the output to be more creative. We did lots of hands on projects, games, etc. YouTube was great for videos to reinforce the subject or help bring it alive. I did not purchase the text book that is mentioned. You can find many activities on Pinterest that correlate to the lessons.
  9. http://www.fcseducation.org/housing--interior-design.html We used the lesson plans found above last year. We modified a bit to do more projects. Any power points or worksheets mentioned I found online. I believe at UEN.org http://www.uen.org/core/displayLessonPlans.do?courseNumber=200110&standardId=5840&objectiveId=5841 Search around that link for more lessons.
  10. We are heading down the same path. I think we've gotten past the sad goodbye aspect and our more concerned with preparing the pup to become an actual guide dog.
  11. That happened to my sister in law. She thought all was ok but discovered her wallet missing when she went to the grocery store.
  12. Very cool! My daughter wants to go into Deaf Studies. She'd love to be able to participate in a few years.
  13. My mom is my best friend and her mom was hers. I pray that the pattern continues with my children. It's especially a blessing because things are truly unbelievable when it comes to MIL.
  14. I gave up Diet Coke in August. It was awful for about 8 days. I started ech day with a fresh fruit smoothie with flax seed and I drank a lot of water. I'm still off of it all these months later.
  15. My poor kids have bad teeth especially DS. DS just had two root canals with crowns and 2 fillings at 11/12 years old and he brushes 3x per day! So yes, we then sealed all his teeth. I'm praying this solves the issue. We are out about $6k in dental work. At least they are all straight so hopefully orthodontia will be minimal.
  16. I had never heard of those games. I just ordered all of the level 3 games. Thanks. I will say I'm glad I saw this thread. I had been planning 3-4 months for level 4 but clearly it won't be that easy. I'd rather know that going in so I don't set ds up for failure.
  17. Are there other siblings who can be a back up?
  18. I lived in NY 15 years ago. We narrowed it down to two places. The first was 350 sq ft studio near Empire State Building and was $1800 a month. The second was in queens. It was about 450 sq ft and was an attic apartment with one bedroom and was $900 a month. We took the attic so we could enjoy living. I'm not sure what rents are like now.
