gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 29 Jan 08

Hi, I'm just wondering if any of you have experienced your kids being wonderful sleepers then going to be awful sleepers? My daughter had been sleeping through the night since she was 4 months. Now all of a sudden she has woken...

Something weird happened in our house last night.

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 19 Jan 08

Last night, when we were just finishing up dinner, a picture fell off the wall. We have no idea what caused it, I just assumed there were small earth movements (we live in California where there are earthquakes) that we couldn't...

Affiliate Links

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 18 Jan 08

Do any of you manually submit your affiliate links to the search engines? If so, I'm curious if they show up right away or if there is a process to it. Meaning, will they appear in a couple days, a few weeks, or right away..

Do you have days where you can't get off the computer?

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 18 Jan 08

I think I'm becoming addicted if that is possible. It is my day off today and I should be cleaning my house and figuring out dinner for the family, but I'm stuck here and on my PTC sites. I'm actually bored with it but can't bring...

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 18 Jan 08

I'm just curious what works for you with getting referrals for your PTC sites. Obviously the only way to make some $ with these sites is with referrals, so what is the trick? I've been trying traffic exchanges and such, but it...

I'm just curious because my 20 month old is constantly testing the limits with me, but with my husband she is a piece of cake. For instance, we got her this new tricycle and with him she does what she should and rides around the...

Changing Careers

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 14 Jan 08

How many people out there have changed careers? I've been in the same career since I was 18 and I need a change, but I'm scared. Scared of not making enough money, scared of not liking it after all, just plain scared of the...

I'm just curious how to make that decision. I have 2 wonderful little girls that are 5 and 20 months and I can't figure out if this is it or if I want more. My husband is open either way. Some days I want another baby and then...

What sayings do you use?

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 10 Jan 08

Every so often I hear funny sayings and am just wondering how many out there I haven't heard. For example, my dad's friend who stands almost 7 feet tall will say, "well chop my legs off and call me shorty," when he hears something...

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 10 Jan 08

I don't mean get drunk in front of your children of course, I just mean, will you have a glass of wine or beer in front of them. Do you think it glorifies drinking in your children's eyes? I'm just curious because every so often...

Do you carry a lot of guilt?

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 9 Jan 08

I do. I carry guilt for not having more time for my husband and kids. In fact, all of my guilt revolves around my husband and kids. I really do the best I can at all times, but I still have guilt. Not really for any specific...

With your boss, do you speak your mind or stand up for what you feel is right?

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 8 Jan 08

I don't. My boss is a difficult lady to say the least. She is a perfectionist in everyway. Her way is the right way, your way is the wrong way, etc. I don't know if she does this to justify her job or if it just makes her feel...

The Second Baby

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 6 Jan 08

Hi everyone. I was just wondering when your second child started speaking. I have a 5 year old and a 20 month old. My 20 month old will say simple words, like mama, dada, sissy, no, wow, ow, Dora, but not much more than that. When...

My 5 year old never stops talking!

Okay, I love her dearly and I love that she has such an incredible imagination that allows her to create such elaborate stories, but must she tell me every one? I know that sounds super insensitive and what I'm about to tell you...

Garlic

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 5 Jan 08

Does anyone know the trick to get the smell of garlic off of your hands? I made Chicken Picatta last night and used garlic, of course, and can't seem to get the smell to go away. I've heard before to use lemon juice so I did, but...

So who watched it last night?

gettinggreen @gettinggreen (125) • United States 5 Jan 08

Finally a new episode and I thought it was really good! I'm awful with character names for some reason (probably because I watch way too much tv), but the one staying with the coach, he just can't catch a break. I can't wait for...
