    At What Age Do You Not Replace a Dog?

    Only you can decide what works best for your situation. We lost our black lab about 2 years ago. He was so good with our 2.5 year old grandson. At that time, we also had a 6 month old grandson. Now…they are almost 5, 2.5 and 8 months. We made the decision that no dogs until these young ones...

    New Furniture UGH!!

    We are starting this painful adventure. I love our current couches; but they are becoming threadbare. I’m guessing they are close to 20 years old. We are budgeting for replacements to be 3x more than what we paid for our couches “back in the day”…

My husband is being treated for cancer (daily chemo and radiation for 6 weeks), and last week, my mom unexpectedly passed away, so I needed a day off as well, when I went to visit her the...

    Gender Reveal parties

    OP here, I’m glad I’m not the only who doesn’t like the the gender (or sex) reveals. “if” my husband feels up to it, we will go, if not, we will stay home. I love baby showers…so will definitely go for that!

    Gender Reveal parties

    Just got invited to another gender reveal. (For my niece, the dad is my husband’s brother, who he is medium-close to.) I do not understand the point of these parties. Yes, I am excited that my niece and her husband are expecting. My daughter and I cannot wait until her registries are online...

    Double Barrel cakes? Pricing, transport?

    There is a great bakery near us, I’m attaching their price sheet. She does not deliver small cakes, only wedding cakes. I’ve only done a 6”tall cake, as opposed to the bigger ones. She has bakery boxes that nicely fit the tall cakes. When we are ready to serve the cake, we put the box on the...

    How much autonomy should an 18 year old home from college have?

    Our DD moved into our house after college. (We moved in the middle of her college, so it was a new area). She ended up with a great position at a company in our new area. We suggested living at home for awhile, so she could figure out housing in a relaxed manner, instead of in a panic-mode...

    Anyone renew their Sirius XM radio subscription lately?

    So, I cancelled my Sirius XM radio this week. My expiring deal was $76/year, including taxes and fees. Their offer to try to keep me was ~$95. i work from home 4 days a week, so I’m driving considerably less than a few years ago, so, I’m not even sure I’m going to miss it. Now, if I get an...

    Does anyone have a medical travel reimbursement plan?

    I don’t specifically recall, but I think my employer has some reimbursement if I needed to travel to a different state, due to state laws that would be less restrictive. Perhaps that is why they are referring to?

    Help with planning a trip to NYC

    We had a great visit in 2012, from Sun Dec 16 and left Wednesday December 19. We did some things that cost money (saw the ”Newsies” on Broadway), and did other things that were absolutely free. There was a phenomenal free display of Lion King costumes (as Lion King was celebrating 15 years on...
