I don't know what made me think of it but about an hour ago I realized that I forgot to turn my clocks back! Luckily my pc and cable box did it on their own so I ran into the kitchen and did the kitchen clock, coffee pot and...

mtporcelli I always used to forget to turn them back or forward for that matter, but what I do now is right before I go to bed, I change them (whichever it is, spring or fall). This way I don't forget the next day - because I know I would and already have. Hope this tip...

Sister in love with bad guy

landlord @landlord (9) • United States 31 Oct 07

My sister and I used to be very close, now, not so much. She recently moved in with a guy that I think is too old for her and too controlling! I've tried talking to her nicely and she constantly defends him, even though I know...

I worked in a preschool for several years

mtporcelli What you are saying is so true. I am an aide in a special ed pre-school, but the same things apply. I find myself at home with my boys, ages 5 and 8, singing everything to them. When they don't listen to me, how I start to count and threaten with a time out....

I've started handpainting & designing acrylic nails: www.designedbydebbi.com My question is one strictly out of curiosity:How many of you ladies:a)Wear acrylic nails? b)Do your own or have them done at a salon?

mtporcelli I have been getting my nails done since I was 19. I'm 42 now. I couldn't be without them. I do use acrylic over tips and I get them done at a salon about every 2-3 weeks. Pink and white are my favorite.

mtporcelli I definately agree with you. I have an 8 year old who always begs to walk home from the bus stop by himself. The stop is literally on the corner from our house. I tell him all the time, no way. There are crazy people all over the place and I don't want them...
