Reply to Why do kids get sick a week before school begins?! in Parenting Stardock Forums

[quote]One thing I did differently this year was I went through the stuff they brought home at the end of the year and salvaged what I could. It turns out a lot of items they used last year were unopened or definitely reusable (came home with unused spiral notebooks, unused crayons, still usable rulers, etc.)[/quote] That's great! I did the same too, but with my kids, there wasn't that much left! I should have hidden them!lol! [quote]I als

[quote]Well, I am sorry and happy to read this at the same time. You are not alone by any stretch. This scenario plays out all over the place.

The Tooth Fairy forgot to Show Up! in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

A little kid can't even depend on the Tooth Fairy anymore! My daughter lost one of her molars, one in the back, finally after weeks of her worrying about it because it was shaking, the tooth is out. She had kept worrying it with her tongue and I was afraid she was going to bite into something and maybe swallow the thing! Her dad wanted to just pull it out but I told him no way because all of the root have to come out! She went to a birthd

When technology lets you down! in Gadgets & Electronics JoeUser Forums

I'm having a difficult time with technology today! I bought a new camera that was on sale, great price, $59.00, a Cobra DC8000! I figured as my first official digital camera, it can't be all that bad. It has lots of great features and definitely what I'm looking for in something less complicated! It takes great pictures, that is a plus. I plugged it in to my computer, seems ok, turned on and everything. I put the software disk into my

[quote]Obama is not a racist, but he is using it as a tool[/quote] Because it was used against him , so why not turn it around? The people who like to detract from his leadership qualities, uses the fear of the unknown where Barack Obama is concerned with the citizens who might even consider voting for him.
