    Why do most people marry?

    I don't know your friends, but what I'm reading doesn't sound like problem marriages, but problems in communication. Have your friends sat down and had an honest talk with their husbands (using Man-English, not Woman-English)? It drives me crazy when I hear women say "He should know!" DH & I...

    Anyone ever sell their home " By Owner " or something with out a Realtor....

    Just a suggestion... Our credit union has a realtor referral program. That's how we found our realtor and she's wonderful. I believe we got back 2% of the sales/purchase price (bought & sold). Maybe your bank has something similar?

    Massage

    Yes, I've had pain before, but that was when I was specifically going there for injury treatment. It certainly didn't last for a week though. I've had massages from several different therapist and hands down, I prefer men. The best was at a spa in Yosemite. The therapist was a smaller man...

    Juice cleanse

    So far so good. Not doing a cleanse, but am really enjoying the juice. DH and the kids are hooked as well. I went from making a glass for myself before dinner and enough for breakfast, to making enough from 4 people before dinner and 2 for breakfast. We went through my supplies much faster...

    Got my "Employee Review" Back today....

    I received a review like that once, but my boss was a jealous psycho wackadoo. Her boss overruled her and told me my attire was just fine. I worked in an office setting and usually wore dress slacks and knit silk tops, or button down blouses. My boss only wore dresses and heels and thought...

    Who else thinks we've all gone mad?

    Doesn't everyone turn their sunrooms into a house-chicken, sparrow, cat & occasional-duck, living space? My co-workers all think I'm really weird. They're not sure how all the animals get along, but they do.

    The Tummy tucking flab busters of BYC 2012

    I'm in! I started working out May of last year. I was able to gain muscle, while maintaining the same inches, but the extra 10 lbs on the scale was disappointing. I took the holidays off from working out, due to two consecutive shoulder injuries and just started up again. I've also starting...

    Juice cleanse

    This thread prompted me to ask for a juicer for Christmas. We used it for the first time today, just some apples, oranges, pineapples and strawberries, but it was delicious. Can't wait to try more recipes!

    Singing tips?

    Open your mouth. Seriously, not being funny. Most people don't open their mouths enough. If you feel like you look ridiculous, that's about right. I took lessons from a friend who needed to teach people for her Masters, she was always getting on my case about this.

    Ducks or Chickens? Pros/Cons

    I've had a chickens for 3 years now and just hatched 10 ducks in November, that were raised by a Silkie hen. Here is what I've learned so far: 1) Chickens go to bed at dusk and Ducks party all night. 2) Ducklings grow much faster than chicks. 3) Ducklings are much more independent than chicks...

    Do You Have A PLANET FITNESS Gym In Your Area?

    Yep, I really like my gym. The place has lots of equipments, so you never have to wait in line. It's very clean. The employees are friendly. The best part is that while all the members are friendly, everyone pretty much keeps to themselves.

    I got run over by grandma!

    To be honest, I frequently want to use my cart as a battering ram when I go shopping. It's either 1) the lady with the extremely expansive posterior standing next to her cart who is effectively blocking both directions in the aisle, studying the ingredients of similar products, as if her life...

    What's more dirty???

    House Chickens vs. Indoor/Outdoor Dogs = House Chicken is cleaner. House chicken is allowed on furniture, dogs are not.

    Inflatable Christmas (or other holiday) yard decor

    You all might want to stay away from our house then. We have at least 6 of them and add to each year. We are the Griswolds of our neighborhood. Our last house had an odd shaped lot and the front and back could be easily seen, so we decorated both sides. Inflatables, lights on the house...

    Public Education rant

    Quote: The books did not change, they will be using two books for the class now. After I got home last night, I grilled both DDs on the book issue. Both maintain that they were just told yesterday. The teacher's reasoning for adding the Study Guide now, was that he did not want all the...
