  1. We always do TT and FD in conjunction with one another. I would consider them a great pre-logic introduction for middle school age. It's fun to watch the kids' reactions to billboard and tv ads after completing the books. Fallacies are everywhere! To answer your question, yes, we did occasionally have different answers than the back of the book.
  2. You can purchase a sterile DIY kit from Walmart. Our first couple of kiddos had theirs done at Claire's. Dh now does them at our convenience with the DIY kits. Eta: These kits are purchased from someone behind the jewelry counter.
  3. Occasionally, I'll see a topic I'm interested in and click on it only to realize it is a social group. None of the OP's post is visible nor is any of the content of the thread. Is there a way to turn off seeing the topic, so it is never visible?
  4. I have one of those vac/mop combos, Symphony by Bissell. It has changed my mopping game.
  5. Should've been more specific. Yes, it is through a ebates gift card. I'll go back and modify previous post. Eta: I refuse to admit I thought the one click option was PayPal.... :leaving: ETA: What the ever loving heck? It is SWAGBUCKS not ebates! I plan to bow out of the thread now. Apparently I need more coffee or an internet break or something! Maybe I'll just go buy something from Amazon. :lol:
  6. Edited and removing wrongly worded portion........... It is through a gift card. Amazon itself doesn't accept Paypal. A quick Google search will give specifics on how to do this.
  7. They aren't. They are meant to be used as a supplement. We use them on and off, but don't have a completion goal in mind.
  8. I agree with Heather. My eldest two are like this. The oldest is now 20 and the younger of the two is 17. Its okay. Each of us have our struggles and strengths.
  9. I had this happen once and it was either with DHL or FedEx, I can't remember, but I did post about it here. Anyway I called and demanded to see the signature, turns out the driver "accidentally" signed when he put it in the delivery pile or some other such nonsense. They ended up delivering it the next day.
  10. Dh got laid off early last year, so I know the feeling. It is a jumble of emotions. He got several leads and his current job through his LinkedIn profile. After you take a few days to process, I would encourage you to encourage him to update or set up his profile.
  11. I'm sorry. I pray that he goes to his evaluation and you get some answers.
  12. This is my story, almost exactly, except mine was in 2004. Bullseye rash that absolutely came from a tick bite, and a 2 week rx for abx. Fortunately, I've been generally healthy ever since.
  13. When I purchase bras, I always purchase undies that mix and match. If my underwear start to show signs of wear then I fill in with a multipack from somewhere. When dressing I try to match colors, black bra to underwear with black, but it isn't the end of the world if they don't match. I have no idea if dh notices or cares, he's never said anything. I like to feel coordinated and pulled together, so it matters to me.
  14. The malls in our area are doing great. Our OK climate is bi-polar. Not sure if that plays into the mix or not.
  15. No, but I tend to take people at face value. If they said, "I had no idea," I literally would think they meant they didn't realize, but had now come to the realization.
  16. A lot of airlines don't allow cash transactions. He will need a way to pay by credit or debit card with a significant allowed amount, in case of checking baggage and such. Most won't allow stewards to take cash either, so if the airline is one that requires you to pay for earphones or a drink in-flight then he will need a card. He can also get a government issued photo ID at the DMV. It isn't needed to fly that young, but could be helpful.
  17. Thank you for your advice. I am deleting.
  18. This is why I went to a rotating menu for a while. Monday was spaghetti, Tuesday was tacos, etc. It varied somewhat depending on ingredients at hand and life. My grocery shopping and meal prep was significantly simpler. The family survived. :D
