rakinitin I am torn between the two. They both have their pros and cons. I miss all the variables that could go wrong with film camera. I miss the days of adding new photos to the albums. I do not miss the 'blackmail' photos, ha ha. If they could invent something more...

rakinitin Marriage is a state of mind. Proving committment to one another, unfortunately for some, does not ensure success. I personally like the idea of marriage and hope that one day Jordan and I will make that decision.

rakinitin The loss of a partner is hard and there are stages you will go through. The good news is, our lives are always changing. There cannot be a right or wrong in how you feel. No-one can tell you what to feel either. Try to remind yourself from time to time, when...

thrwbckjay67 @thrwbckjay67 (2870) • United States 18 Jan 08

With the rising costs of simple concessions like soda or popcorn at the movie theaters, and the rising ticket prices, do you still buy food at the theaters or do you make it a point to bring food from outside so you can save some...

rakinitin Blisters are caused from new or improper footwear. If there is a spot on your footwear, specifically causing the blister, what I do (and works like a charm) is to take a hammer and pound that particular area. It softens the fabric and prevents further...

rakinitin That's rough! Perhaps being a show off/braggart is as far as she will get. Maybe she already knows that what we want and what we get are two different things. Another thing I'm thinking is, with there being some distance between you two (location), maybe she...

rakinitin Whether your baby was cranky or not, a stay at home mom needs some 'me time'. Many times this is neglected and then complications set in. Like resentment, depression, anger, etc. If you don't allow some time to yourself and wind down, you can bet your health,...

rakinitin You will never know unless you try. What's the worst that could happen? You just never know what will attract the customers nowadays. Remember the 'Pet Rock'? Even after all these years I still see them in stores. Go figure.

I love antiques and anything old. I love the house that I live in, although we rent it. It's a 1940s house with 50s light shades and everything's pretty much original. I love it! But I don't own it so I'd have to say the oldest...
