tentwo67 You are absolutely right. I am very lucky to have time with my precious child, and I do appreciate it. I worked full time when he was younger (though not quite the hours you shared with me there), and I am so grateful that I was able to figure out a way to...

tentwo67 I don't even know how many followers I have! I have to go look at it to be sure. I think I am also signed up for the ad service you mentioned (or maybe we should exchange links in a private message?). I'm not sure how I managed to get so many followers. I...

Just curious, do you follow those who are following you on Twitter? If you're using Twitter as a way to earn money, does it make sense for you to follow your followers in order to get even more followers? Does that make sense?...

tentwo67 I do generally follow the people who follow me, but I am way behind in catching that up. I have tons of emails that people are following me but I haven't been on twitter in a while. Although I am there, I don't really enjoy it as much as I do Facebook. I think...

tentwo67 I think that it's easy to forget to enjoy life when we're all trying to make ends meet and take care of all of our obligations. I do believe that it's a choice we can make, though. So even though it seems that children in general are better at enjoying life...

It's a hypothetical situation where you have been separated from your spouse after much bitterness, just as it happens. Now, he/she wants to reconcile and you could see the honesty in his/her eyes and could feel his/her sincerity...

I want to see this movie. It looks like it will be great. But considering it's only rated PG 13, and of course it stars Zac Efron, it seems as if it will draw the teenage crowd. I may not want to be in a theater with a bunch of...

tentwo67 I think it will definitely draw a very young crowd so your idea of going during the week is probably smart. Personally, I think it looks cute, but I will probably wait for DVD to watch it. I might change my mind on that, but I will most likely wait. It does...

tentwo67 I am really nearsighted and have worn glasses for almost 20 years. Because I'm nearsighted, I've always been able to see better up close, but in the past few years I've noticed that I really don't see well at all with my glasses on for reading and other up...

tentwo67 I find that I stay hungrier when I have time on my hands, or when I'm anxious about something. Generally if I can keep myself really busy, I can avoid the munchies! I have to be physically so busy that I can't stop for anything, or I'll still manager to find...

tentwo67 Well, I'm certainly aware of things like leaving things running, and conserving my efforts in different areas (like doing all of one thing at once). One thing we definitely watch is the thermostat. When it was really cold I was bundling up like crazy (I'm...

tentwo67 I heard rumors that it was an old law (British maybe?) that a husband could not use anything bigger around than his thumb to beat his wife. I have no idea if this is true, and how it would be to try to enforce it. It's interesting to think about,...

What will you do? Will you dye your hair? Will you try to pick out of your white hair? I heard people say it will make your white hair grow much more. But it is so troublesome to use a scissors to cut it one by one.

tentwo67 That is great news! I don't remember how old my son was exactly when he went to bed in underpants, but we kept him in pullups for a while. And then he went through a bedwetting phase when I was tempted to put him back in pullups! But I didn't want to go...

tentwo67 Depending on what kind of soup you're making you could maybe serve it over rice to make it more filling, but that probably wouldn't be so great with potato leek soup. Maybe you could serve it over egg noodles, but that's a whole lot of starch! I have...
