They are using you, but you know that. There's no way I would do it. You will end up being even more resentful every day they drop their little ones off. If you really need the money then take the $20./day offer. But honestly, I doubt you would see a penny. I have a feeling she would never give you a check. She is counting on you to not ask her for one. It will be awkward and uncomfortable for the duration of the friendship.
I can't imagine having the disruption and successfully homeschooling.

Change your setting to be invisible. No one knows when I'm online until I make myself available, which rarely happens.

Catholic- lots of minivans, SUVs and Subaru's. The sedans are usually Lexus or Infinity with sprinkles of Toyotas and Hondas.
We live in CO, though. So almost everyone drives a minivan, SUV or Subaru. :)

We bought this one . I know it doesn't have the upside down parts, but it is a lot of fun if you are looking for an exchange. The tracks are flexible and can be changed in seconds. It was a huge hit with all the kids this year.
We've had great luck with Hearthsong. I'm sorry this product was crappy. :(

I'm sorry. It stinks. And no I will not join in and encourage the huge time sucker. :(
It isn't quite that bad, yet. If I ask he will get off. Dh does spend time with me in the evenings after the kids are asleep. But any opportunity he has to play, he'll take it. I hate it.
It's the first thing he does in the morning as he doesn't have to be at work until 9. He wakes around 5:30, with the littles, and plays while they play at the train table. There are days that I have to go in and say "You have 15 minutes to get to work are you getting dressed today?" I'll get an eye roll and attitude as he shuts it off. WTH?
I don't get it. It's a freaking game.

My father did this we when we were little. My uncle would take us to parking lots an open fields and do donuts while we flopped along behind. :eek:
My father was a captain at the police department, he really should have known better.:glare:

It doesn't sound too complicated. I hope it turns out!

I'm making my ds a civil War box for Christmas. I've collected various Civil War relics and reenactments items over the past year. These include a non-firing pistol, canteen, clothing, hat, framed bullets, and various other items.
Anyhow, I purchased a bunch of civil war scrap booking pieces: die cut-outs, currency, stamps, papers.... I was thinking of cutting these out and decoupaging them onto the box.
How would one do that? Do I just glue them down and paint varnish over it? Will the papers run or get ruined if I varnish over them? I won't be able to get more in time if I screw it up.
Any help is appreciated! I don't have the craft gene. Btw-It's a plain rectangular, non-stained wood box.
TIA!

put onto outlines of my kids. I don't know if it's a coloring book or a science curriculum or what?
TIA!

Yikes, I will keep your family and community in my prayers.
It's very cold in Colorado this week too. It's 4° at my house right now. I am so thankful to have adequate heating. It breaks my heart to know so many don't. :(
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you are able to pick up the presents tomorrow and that you don't lose power!
I say keep the birthday in December.
Mine is May 3rd. It's snowed more times than not on my birthday. :) I do love Colorado, though.

I've purchased many suits for my boys on eBay.

#2 was my favorite too. My only issue was that Joey (neck boy) always looks like a goon in our Christmas picture. :tongue_smilie:
I'm going to go with Chrissy's fix even though I liked the other pose. We all look good in that one. :)

Ohhh I love this. Thank you! This was the 1st one we took. Then I decided to smooch everyone on the love seat together. I might crop the feet a bit.

Here are the best of what my camera can take with the self timer:
1. I don't like dh's face on this one or DDs big teeth
2. I don't like ds's neck
3. too dark
4. My double chin
What do you think?
TIA!

I wouldn't take ambien under those circumstances. I don't even drink a glass of wine if I know my dh might not be home that night. I'm paranoid and worry about not being able to save my kids if something were to happen. Our neighbor's house burned down a couple of years ago and ever since I make the effort to stay in complete control.
I feel your pain. I haven't slept through the night in many years. :grouphug:

Our Target was pretty busy around 9 last night. There were at least 5 checkouts with 3-4 people in each line.
Overall the crowds have been less than I've expected this season. Perhaps more people are shopping online, I know I am. The economy is also in the crapper so that can't help. :(

In, my private Catholic, high school "green" meant marijuana and "white" meant coke. Unfortunately that is what I think of when I hear the word green. This is especially true if I happen to be near a group of teenagers.

I was actually wondering if the sizes would be big enough. My baby sister (15) lives at home, and my dad. But my three brothers (21-30) often are over for dinner, unexpected and at the last minute. She also feeds my five kids every Friday (and sometimes Saturday) night when they sleep over. :)
I'm pretty sure she's up to the cooking part. She's only 55 and very physically active. she walks 1.5 miles to Mass every morning rain, snow or shine. :)
Thanks for the great feedback. I know she'll love it! I'm going to see if I can convince my cousins to do the same thing. Then my aunts can go with her.

I would love to give my mother a gift certificate to a place like this for Christmas. Dinner has always been a struggle for her. I know that it's not cost effective, at all. But if she could get 6-10 meals out of it she would love it.
Is one company better than another? Any tips?
TIA!

I loved the Bumbo. I took it everywhere with us. I used it more than the swing, bouncer and jumpy put together. My babies were tiny. I don't know about the lil chunkers. :)

Yes and no. I've placed 9 orders between October 10th and last week. I ordered a Build a Road toy for my three year old's birthday. It stated it was "In stock" yet it took 2.5 MONTHS before it arrived. I contacted Amazon when I saw the estimated ship date was Dec 5th (my order was placed on Oct. 10th) and was told that the website stated "Item ships within 2-3 months" in very fine print on the confirmation page. It did.
Everything else came on or before the date they estimated. Build a Road will now be a Christmas present.
If you are done having children....

I *knew* the moment the two lines appeared with #3. There was no question we were done, done, done!
Thank God we didn't make it to the vasectomy. :)
