mrsturner @mrsturner (518) • Canada 3 Apr 07

Yesterday I got a letter from the city telling me that I have an outstanding parking ticket. I never have the car during the day so I knew that it couldn't be mine. When I asked my husband about it he said that it was his ticket...

How often do you log onto mylot?

mrsturner @mrsturner (518) • Canada 29 Mar 07

It seems that I no sooner log onto mylot then one of the kids wakes up, or it's time to start dinner, etc. By the time I get back (even if I'm only gone long enough to change a diaper) I have to log back in because I've timed out...

What is your breaking point?

mrsturner @mrsturner (518) • Canada 20 Mar 07

After three nights of little sleep (my baby is sick) and a long morning of whiney kids, I just put them to bed. They didn't want to go to bed, but I wanted them there. It feels like I've had no time to myself lately. I've even...

mrsturner @mrsturner (518) • Canada 14 Mar 07

In our house bath time is "Daddy time" because I hate bathing the kids. It's not comfortable on the floor; they splash water all over me, and it takes too long because THEY are having lots of fun. I know that makes me sound like...
