So last week DD 8 had a psychiatry appointment and they started her on risperdal she had an allergic reaction to it and we spent 3 hours in the ER last Thursday. So we had another appointment today and they want to put her on the child and adolescent ward because they are to afraid to try her on...

I have a problem... I love money. :animated: We are very close to being debt free (for now). Right now we rent an apartment and our goal is to pay off the rest of this debt and save for a down payment on a house + a larger emergency fund. However, I am a full-time student, which will bring on...

I even learned the line dance at a club and I don't do country. Your turn. :)

I am so proud that Dh and I are debt free and it took us a few years to get to this point. We have now been debt free for a few years and we look towards future plans now instead of worrying about the debt we used to have and the sleepless nights it caused us. We are saving for a down payment on...

I've been browsing car lots. I've had a bit of the spring bug... wanting something new (err, at least to me... :) ). I did have to test drive that 2009 Toyota (Camry??) that was marked down to 16,9xx (something close to 17K). Okay, I can't afford it, but it was fun to test drive. ;) Anywho, I...

Ok this time last year DH and I had over $12,000 in CC debt which to me is alot since he is the only one working and we struggled making minimum payments each and every month just to pay the CC's and we did it, we paid off $12,000 by Refinancing the home and income tax refund. This year I am...

The preschool where I work 2 days a week, and where DD#2 goes to school, had a silent auction. Each class did a project with the kids hand prints etc. Our class made a floor cloth and kitchen towels. I did the kids handprints and them made them into butterflies and flowers. Well, DD#2s class...

I don't bake any kind of yeast breads.. I am a chicken to do so. I am always afraid that I will kill the yeast, and ruin what ever I am making. Then I go see Grandma and she can whip out a loaf of bread like nothing, and she doesn't measure water temp, or hardly any of the ingredients.. Then I...

Let me start by saying that I am my own worst critic and am very hard on myself. "Can't" is absolutely not in my vocabulary and while "If it's free, it's for me" is my frugal saying, my general life mantra is "Don't complain about what's wrong...instead, focus on what is right." So, that is...

I don't know if it's because this will be our first Christmas that we're not all together as a family (ds and ddil can't come home again...they were here for Thanksgiving) or what. I'm just not in the mood to *do it*. I've done the shopping but have only put up the tree. I just can't get the...

I had mine sewn together, but it was off. For some reason the solid colored block was too big? I dont' get it, as it was the same exact size as the rest and had the 1/4 inch seam. WHATEVER, I did rip it out and am now 100% satisified. Can't wait to make another one, I am so impatient..........lol

I for one am. I can't seem to get past 3-4 eight ounce glasses per day. Who else is struggling with this and how do we overcome it. I love water, I just seem to forget to get a glass of it or I feel bloated if I drink too much.

Mine was telling her I got married two weeks after I did and I wasn't having a wedding. Sara
