  1. I have a Honda Pilot and love it. Acura MDX and Pilot are the same chassis. Acura is a lot more elegant inside, but you pay for that. The Honda is a fantastic vehicle.

     

    Also consider the Toyota Hilander. We ultimately chose Honda, but the hilander is a great car too.

  2. My mom was a shampoo and set lady. She put on lipstick (natural color) and sometimes mascara. She still has an eyeliner cake that dates back to the 50's (yuck-but at least at 87 she doesn't use it)

     

    I am a full face everyday makeup person and my hair is always washed and styled after exercise. Everyday.

     

    Personally, I have fine hair that looks greasy if I don't wash/style (it's also always cut and colored). Also, my contacts tend to just not feel right if I don't have mascara on - prob psychosomatic!

     

    One sister is like me, just not as much of everything, the other sister will wear makeup just not everyday.

  3. Well, I am speaking of experience as well. My husband went through the military for college - qualified to be a fighter pilot. He was first generation college, broken home, no Money. Through his hard work, and yes, risk, he now makes a very nice salary as an airline pilot. I understand physical disqualifications, and I'm sorry, really sorry that it isn't an option for those who have them. I would think that getting ahead and dramatically changing your income and lifestyle would demand a risk and a significant commitment and if there's an opportunity - even if it is dangerous- they'd take it.

  4. Food for thought...we've always lived far away from family. My parents were minimally 10'years older than my husbands. We always erred on spending more time with my food because of age - dh's parents were young and would drive. Fast forward - dh's mom has very early onset fairly aggressive dimentia. I always thought there would be time....

  5. I have a handled serving plate - which looks like a larger plate with ears. Nice for serving cakes, cheeses

    I use my butter dish daily

    I have countless bigger bowls and platters. And I love the oval bakers.

    Have a couple covered casseroles.

    Really all fiesta is awesome!!

  6. My youngest -17- struggles with test taking. He's a very bright kid, and knows the material, but freezes during testing. As you can imagine, his act score is not as high as it should be and doesn't reflect his abilities. Also, his community college test scores make him get b's not a's and he's an a student. Where should I go for help? Also what's the best act prep you

    Can recommend that is outside of doing test prep booklets? Thanks.
