What's up with clothes these days? Is it me? Or is fashion geared to either juniors or skinny women? Is there nothing in between for women with fashion sense that don't yet fit in to the Alfred Dunner crowd but have been long past...

My Doctor placed me on Lexapro to deal with a lot of stress in my life at the time. He wants to wean me off of it in March. Has anyone ever gone through this? What can I expect?

lifeistrulyshort I don't have rights to copy/paste yet, but I am going through this right now and had some weird withdrawal symptoms: feelings like I was undergoing a mild electric shock in my brain...like it was rebooting or something; whishing sounds...a little anxiety. I...

I was walking my niece to her tae kwon do lesson yesterday afternoon. We have to cross a pretty busy street to get her there. We must have been standing there about 5 - 10 minutes. Cars just zooming on by. None of them slowing...

lifeistrulyshort No, he didn't. He is a semi-retired trucker who now drives for a company called "Truk Rodz" by Jones Performance in Pennsylvania. He was just in MO delivering a custom hood for the Trick My Truck show. They donated a lot of hoods to the show. He actually got...

lifeistrulyshort continuing my comment.... Infidelity is a symptom of problems already there. The other person needs to get over the anger and use the situation to look at the marriage and figure out why it happened. If someone else can turn your head, then something is wrong...

As a mother I can remember when I was in school. I remember getting out of school about mid-May and heading back mid-August. With my girls I have noticed that school gets out later and later every year. It starts back sooner and...

lifeistrulyshort Follow your instincts, that's the best advice. She's in the same situation as my daughter was, but we put her in kindergarten early. I don't think it's a good idea to let kids skip grades. It usually catches up with them later. Ask the school guidance...

lifeistrulyshort Good decision in not putting the girls in school "early"! I did that with my older daughter and regretted it. She turned 5 two weeks past the cutoff date for kindergarten and we thought if we put her in early, she could be in the regular classes and do well...

lifeistrulyshort Also, in our community, the only group I've ever seen do this was the firefighters holding out their boots for 9/11. Where I used to live, they would close off the main street for three days and have a street fair! Tear-off bingo cards, birthday roulette, the...

lifeistrulyshort I would be very distracted by the signs, and the possibility of one of the kids getting distracted and coming too close to the street. If that were happening in my neighborhood, I'd take it up with the police, as it is definitely a driving hazard, and then...

lifeistrulyshort Doesn't it make you wonder that if she does this in public, so impulsively, what she's doing at home to her daughter? She seems very immature.

Is it the sunset that creeps earlier into your day? Is it the signs of "Back to School" sales? the distant drums of marching band camp in the morning? What makes you realize the summer is coming to an end?

lifeistrulyshort What an emotional time for you! I used to teach kindergarten, and had tears half the way to work on the first day when I would see those little kiddies waiting for the bus with their parents; knowing what they were feeling as a parent. Definitely the first day...

lifeistrulyshort Ok, I just googled that phrase, and can see why it's flagged...I still don't see the connection with the phrase and the act! I suppose that might make a good discussion in that arena, but I don't want to go there! By the way, I think you should have us over!...
