Checking out Treadmills - Blog Entry

I like Overstock.com. They do offer good deals and while they don't always have what I am looking for; I check there first and on more than one occasion they have had exactly what I wanted for a very good price.

Toilet Exercise, anyone? - Blog Entry

05 May 2006 12:48 AM

ROFL TB! That's great! I've never had two kids at opposite ends of the house before, but for the longest time -- my daughter insisted on announcing when she had to go to the bathroom. Then she would wait expectantly for me to reply. If I didn't, she would shout it -- then I would say "Okay, go ahead."

It took me a year to convince her she didn't need to get my Okay to actually use the bathroom once she mastered it.

Namibia - Birthplace of Beauty - Blog Entry

Libby, great post as always -- I for one get tired of the hoopla surrounding these people. I like Angelina and Brad, but frankly -- I don't care if they sneezed, got up and sat around in baggy clothes or had to go halfway around the world to get away from the press. But I do appreciate the information on Namimbia. That's really interesting! We often forget the areas of real beauty that still exist on the African Continent.

Thanks for the info there, Lisa. I'm going to see if I can actually interview a counselor or physician that performs gastric bypass in order to get a more accurate and timely view!

Glad you like it Catherine! These ideas are up on my fridge now that you mentioned it. Sometimes, it's just the easiest way to remember things!

Garage Sale Hopping - Blog Entry

Sweet! That's a great tale of a successful garage sale. I'm contemplating hosting one soon to do the same. Just to clear out the excessive amounts of junk (re pack rat) that we have collected.

The Family Bed - Part 1 - Blog Entry

30 Apr 2006 02:59 PM

I have no problems with co-sleeping. My daughter comes to sleep with Mommy at least once a week. She even asks Daddy is he minds cause the bed isn't big enough for all three of us. Course, when Daddy is traveling or away, she always stays with me. it provides her with more security.

Displaying Children's Artwork - Blog Entry

Ooh, I like the border idea. We took a posterboard and made a collage out of her artwork at one point. She draws ALL the time. So sometimes we have stacks and stacks of creations. We'll choose the best ones and add it to the collage.

Myths About Marriage - Blog Entry

28 Apr 2006 12:19 AM

I agree with both of you! Marriage should provide you with a safe haven, a trusted friend, advisor and companion. Of course there is no such thing as perfect, yet our culture is filled with these references and ideas. It can be very eye opening for a couple to realize they are not Ozzie and Harriet and that in the real world we don't get trumpets and happily ever afters. I liked what you mentioned about love songs, T.B. I'd forgotten about that line.
