    How much would you pay someone for house sitting for you for 3 weeks? We're trying to decide. We're having someone check every day, and, alternatively, come stay in the house for 3 weeks to make sure everything is okay. We don't know or trust our neighbors to pop in on a daily basis.

    Because my baby girl got her report card and passed to first grade! She cried when she got off the bus, because she missed her teacher, but I told her next year she could visit her, and say hi when she saw her in the halls and things. Then she calmed down and now I'm the one who is crying! I...

    Wish this house had a porch.  I especially miss sitting on my old porch swing. This one was made of steel and had two canvas covered cushions one to sit one & one against your back. This was big enough for one person to sleep comfy on or 4 adults to sit. Most of the time though it held two...
