Bah! Humbug!! Christmas is cancelled at our house!!!

mentalward @mentalward (14690) • United States 17 Dec 08

I've lost what little Christmas spirit I had. It has nothing to do with finances, although Christmas would be a little thin this year because of the economy. That normally doesn't phase me at all because Christmas really is in the...

ginnypetree Christmas for me was looking pretty grim to start out with. But it turned itself around. It's not fair that everything should be on one person. But my motto is... If you want something done right you have to do it yourself. But thats just me... Maybe your...

ginnypetree People always judge as cruel as it sometimes is.... I know people that are disabled and they are on assistance and it helps out a little. I agree with you 100%.

Reading to children

makingpots @makingpots (11915) • United States 22 Nov 08

I love reading to children... groups of children, my own child, anyone child who will listen. I enjoy doing voices and being dramatic. Most of all I enjoy creating suspense and watching little faces long to hear what is coming...

ginnypetree I think it's very important to become involved with reading with your child. It gives time to bond also. My son loves Junie B Jones little brother series. My daughter likes Goosebumps books. So its important around our house to read and visit the Library...

Wanting to see more from them

lilybug @lilybug (21107) • United States 20 Nov 08

If you have an actor or actress that you really like, do you make it a point to see more movies with that person in them just because they are in it? Even if it got bad reviews?

Do you think he will get sick. It was a smaller one, but not a baby. Do you think I should take him to the vet. Worried about him p**ping it out.

ginnypetree I wouldnt worry so much... I think he will be okay. But keep an eye out just in case. If he starts acting weird then I would get him checked. But as long as your up on all his shots I think he'll be fine.

Do you read for leisure or for learning?

Amber @AmbiePam (94045) • United States 13 Nov 08

I've noticed lately, that although I'm reading certain books for fun, they are books that actually are teaching me things I did not know. I don't read fiction anymore, although I have just picked up [i]The Picture of Dorian...

ginnypetree For both... I love to read period. I wasnt always like that until I had kids and I believe its important to get a child involved with reading early so I made a habit to pick up a book with them and start reading.

miraclefreebies @miraclefreebies (3043) • United States 30 Sep 08

mentalward @mentalward (14690) • United States 13 Nov 08

ginnypetree My mother made it a tradition on thanksgiving night to put up the tree. She still does that. And she bakes her homemade fudge. It's great! For the last couple of years she has put lights on her house but she waits until the first weekend in December for that.
