What makes it last?

sarahruthbeth22 @sarahruthbeth22 (43143) • United States 21 Jan 11

sisterjinx Our dog is a 13 year old Rottie. She is more a member of the family than a pet. We got her when she was 9 weeks old. Her name is Noita, it's the Finish word for Witch.

sisterjinx In our home it's just the hubby and I. we are full time RVers and our son uses only the campground bathroom as he doesn't like the one in the camper. I would say that we go through about a roll every 4 - 5 days. (well unless someone gets a runny nose or...

sisterjinx I noticed this a LONG time ago. I finally got frusterated when our youngest was in around 5th grade and I pulled them all out of public school and homeschooled them. I got tired of arguing with teachers and administrators about what they were teaching and why...

The Value of Reading

Boboy2 @Boboy2 (62) • Philippines 12 Oct 09

One of my teachers encouraged me to read. I could still remember his words in imploring us to make reading as our habit. Thus, he said,"Read, read, read until you could not read anymore." I did not understand

sisterjinx When I was young I couldn't get enough of books. I read all the time. I read all summer long. I all but lived at the library. I still think fondly of the librarian at that time in my life. She was so wonderful to me and taught me how to help her. I voluteered...

Understanding some one's desperation

TLChimes @TLChimes (4822) • United States 23 May 09

Another MyLotter didn't see how I could understand someone turning to crime due to the times being tough. Understanding and condoning are not the same thing. I understand desperation. Desperation comes at many points in a...

sisterjinx I don't have siblings and I'm still not my mom's favorite. I think she always wondered how she ended up with me. Now that I have children she has finally found her favorite, my oldest son. He's like the son she never had. But as he has grown into an adult he...

deepika201 @deepika201 (268) • India 21 Apr 09

sisterjinx I don't know if it's damaging to kids. I think that working moms can make time for their kids and still spend great quality family time on evenings and weekends. I don't think this has as much to do with working as it does with we have forgotten what it means...

gewcew23 @gewcew23 (8007) • United States 21 Apr 09

I do not see anything that is morally redeemable to self-sacrifice for the common good. Why do we have this notion that those that volunteer are some how holier than those that do not? Now we have Obama the Community Organizer in...
