I was on strike, I absolutely refused to clean my kids toy room. I had been a month, and I thought eventually they would start picking things up. I gave up today, and cleaned it and it took me all day. Literally every puzzle...

kimberlylynn It is a bad habit! I try to tell them bugs will come around from the food, and they will hurt themselves when they step on toys and break things. The funny thing is that my kids love to help me clean the rest of the house, but won't clean up their area.

kimberlylynn thanks, I will keep trying. I do take away tv and things and not let them out until they clean it but then my daughter always ends up doing the work and my son refuses and could care less if I throw away everything he owns (he's stubborn like that). Then they...

Okay, for my birthday, I'm going to Paris and this is the first time I've been to Paris. So, I'm not very familiar with the city. Do any of you have any suggestion as to what I should? What I should check out? Or completely...

We went to Black Chasm Cavern today to visit the helictites. What are those? Cave formations, or speleotherms, that turn and twist into all kinds of unusual shapes. This cavern is famous for them. First we met Dad and Jane in...

kimberlylynn well if you are ever in that area, check it out. I haven't been there in so long, I think I will have to bring my kids there so thanks for reminding me about it. Oh and if you do pack your lunch, I found out that you should never pack a pb&j sandwich and...

I was watching Jay leno the other night and they were showing things that were totally odd inventions for dogs like a sweater thing to put over dogs ears to keep them warm. the dog looked so uncomfortable it was hilarious. I...

When we decide that it’s time for big changes in our lives, it is wise to ease into them by starting small. Small changes allow us to grow into a new habit and make it a permanent part of our lives, whereas sudden changes may...

kimberlylynn shelters have good and bad points. It's just nice to be able to take one in a room as long as you want instead of getting one home and discovering it doesn't like you. A pet can really be a big decision. Good luck!

kimberlylynn Yeah it is tempting to buy on-line but I really trust our vet and think it is worth paying a little extra to make sure you have the right meds and dosage. I hate to hear you lost so many because of that, I don't think people realize the danger. I wouldn't go...

I don't know them very well but it has upset me very much and I don't know what to say. We are trying to have another child and I can't imagine how I would handle it if that were to be us. Should I call, send a card, send a gift?...

kimberlylynn Thanks so much, it really is one of those things that if you don't experience it, you never can understand it. Your sister must be one strong woman to keep trying so long! I bet her son is very special. :)

Our a/c went out and I'm too cheap to pay extra for someone to come out on a weekend so we are toughing it out. So it's 890 degrees inside and I can't sleep. Fans just don't get it when they blow hot air. Do you have air...

kimberlylynn Sounds like you are in a lovely and comfortable place. The weather is starting to break here, so we are able to open windows and run the a/c less which means lesser bills to pay too - yeah!

kimberlylynn Thanks for checking back - Ollie is training like a pro! He whines at night if he has to go out now, I am so amazed by it. I think everyone's tips were so helpful, it was just as matter of taking him directly out of cage to outside at the same spot every hour...

kimberlylynn I do like to hope there is another place for people to go one day as I think we will wear this planet out. Maybe not for our children, but perhaps our children's children or children's children's children. Or...well, you get my drift. I hope you get to Mars!...
