goodgramma My son had a ferret and we had 2 kittens at the same time. They got along just great! They played together all the time. I don't know if it makes a difference that all 3 animals were very young but they grew up together and it sure was fun to watch them play!

goodgramma I am so happy for you! I would say that 90% of the time, a parent in this situation would want to see their child. The percentage may be higher even. Sometimes they have parents who advise their son not to keep in contact--it's an embarrassment to them or they...

goodgramma I don't think that spanking will hurt anything. Especially if you haven't done it for a while, it may just shock him into rethinking his behavior. My children are grown now and they tell me that they remember the few times that I spanked them. I was...

goodgramma Sometimes it's like a weird germ or something that grows on feet and really smells bad. There is a cure however, so read on! Wash your feet thoroughly with a deodorant soap and dry well before putting socks on again. Buy a spray can of anti-bacterial stuff...

goodgramma Sometimes it's caused by aging other times by a medication we're taking. I was having that problem and I finally narrowed it down to a medication that I was taking. The medication I am taking is a "beta-blocker", in this case its Atenolol, which I take for...

goodgramma You can't do that--only God can. We are all given free choice here on earth and people have to make their own decisions. Besides, there is nothing I hate worse than someone trying to "convert" people at gatherings, etc. I attended an open house for a new...

It seems that maybe Al Gore is positioning himself to make a run for the White House. He's just won an academy award, is a Nobel prize nominee, has the experience and the money to do it. It appears all the cards would be in his...

goodgramma I think he's going to run. Especially now that he's won that award, he acts like he thinks that people really like him and he would have a good chance to win. I sure wouldn't vote for him though, he's turning into a joke! I wouldn't want global warming to...

goodgramma I have a 2-year-old cat that was terribly abused by a small child. She growls every time you pick her up or even pet her. She rarely bites or scratches anyone (read on for that part!) but I think she thinks that we're going to hurt her like the child did that...

goodgramma Try looking at your library in the city directory (if you are in the US). Sometimes people forget when they give out the information to the directory people. In any case, you may be able to get his address from there which may be better because you could write...

goodgramma If the swatches aren't rubber-backed, you could make some really neat pillows out of them. Since a lot of upholstery material is rubber-backed, it makes them hard to sew on a regular sewing machine and I would assume that you wouldn't want to invest big bucks...

goodgramma Just try sanding them down and putting a darker stain on them. Or if you'd like to make them look antique, distress them (5-year-old boys are great at this!) and then stain them gradually darker towards the edges of the drawers/doors and in the dents made by...

goodgramma Make sure that there is enough light--very important for digital cameras--and get it as clear as you can (lack of light makes digital pics blurry). Then use a photo manipulation program to make the focus even better. It's not as good as using a scanner, but if...

goodgramma Things to try: 1. Phone books--old and new. Libraries have copies of old phone books. Look in the city that you know she was last located. 2. City directories--old and new. Again, libraries have them. When you find her name in any of these books, pay...
