Carolysom That's awesome! If he's not going to do things with you, go out and enjoy yourself with people that enjoy your company! A girls day out would be more fun anyways.

Carolysom http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/04/21/native-blockade.html this one was about a land dispute. There was a rock quarry that they claimed to be on ancestral Mohawk, which is one group of natives land. But, they think the land belongs to nobody, so how could...

Carolysom I have done some shopping on ebay, but nothing that was that much of a big ticket item. I have bought clothes, wall stickers for my son's room, other things for in his room, and a portable baby swing. I would be afraid that it would get broken in the mail or...

Carolysom My mother in law had the same frame of mind when my husband was growing up. There is no need to cook 5 different meals for 5 people.

I don't understand my 2 year old's obsession with batteries. I don't let him play with them, but whenever he can, he gets a hold of 1 or 2 and puts them in his mouth. I have a wireless mouse for my laptop that he keeps taking and...

Carolysom He only likes AAA and AA batteries and they are too big for him to choke on them, so he can't digest them.

Carolysom I think what she is referring to is things like Welcome Wagon bringing you a basket full of all kinds of stuff when you move to somewhere new, or have a baby. I know there are a lot of other companies that do stuff like that. There are TONS of companies...

Carolysom You just turn them inside out. They are a light colour on one side and black on the other. They are really heavy, being that they have double the fabric. But he loves them in the winter because they are warmer, twice as much pants.
