    How old were you when you first went abroad?

    The first time I remember was age 7. We went to Germany.

    Women who reported having been pregnant looked biologically older than women who had never, and women who had been pregnant more often looked ...older

    It does say in the study that many of the pregnancies in their baseline study occurred during late adolescence, which might be stressful depending on the amount of support given to the mother. I do think the contrast between men and women is interesting, even if it is only 2.4 - 2.8 months of...

    how much of a necessity is it to have a car where you live?

    We have a crappy transportation system and no one wants to raise taxes to make improvements. It would be difficult without a car but not impossible. Our own family is within walking distance of two major shopping areas and small medical facilities. If I worked from home I'd be okay. ETA: It's...

    Would you go on a game show?

    Price is Right or Wheel of Fortune. I would not do well on Jeopardy, having to answer on the spot and worrying about being in the negatives.

    Survivor 46

    I regret that we did not get to see her play with Bhanu. I really wanted to see that match-up.

    AI from 2001. The Worst.

    Survivor 46

    Same. I am loving how Venus is impacting the game and hoping she causes a lot of drama and chaos that mess up what would otherwise be easy votes. I am so glad Hunter did not go out with his idol in his pocket. He is going to be a huge target because he is awesome.

    Would you ever go on a Disney Cruise?

    Oh wow, thank you for sharing your experience on Seabourn! Our kids are 18 and 15 now, and while they would probably still get a kick out of a Disney cruise (or any cruise), they would not be invited on this particular trip.

    Pre Vacation Nerves/Jitters?

    I get overly excited before a trip and cannot concentrate on anything else. It is understandable to be nervous your first time flying. There are a number of pre-travel lists you can download and adjust if that helps

    Would you ever go on a Disney Cruise?

    I've heard great things about the service on Disney cruises, but I'm not sure if I would book one. I've cruised before, but not with Disney. Right now, the only type of cruise that interests me is a Greek Island cruise, followed by a week on land. I think with cruises that focus heavily on...

    Talk me out of filling in my inground pool

    We had a fiberglass pool when I was growing up. It was work but we lived in CA and were able to use it for much of the year. When our kids were little, we talked about getting an inground pool. We have an enormous backyard. DH was opposed, and we ended up becoming members at a local pool...

    What do you like about your boss/workplace and what do you dislike?

    I love that my boss is supportive and trusts me to do my job. There is not much I dislike. I work at a University. Meetings and having to pay almost $500 per year to park to go to work are at the top of my short list of dislikes, but that's life. Suck it up, Buttercup.

    Have you been back to your honeymoon spot?

    No. We went to Maui and Kauai and would love to go back.

    SNL Celebrity Cameos

    It was funny, too. The only thing that would have been a cherry on top is if Hader would have come on as Stefan (although Wiig was hilarious during Weekend Update). I miss that old cast.

    How messy is your car console?

    It is clear of trash but admittedly, could use a wipe down.

    Retired & No Desire to Travel....?

    I have had the travel bug since I was a kid and will travel until I am unable to, but I love my home time as well. I'm 56, so hopefully have many years ahead of me. We have a lovely yard and a lot to do in our area but I am looking forward to some of our upcoming trips. Do whatever floats your boat.

    Question for high school parents

    Depends on the high school. At some of our more competitive schools, competition is tough. They definitely have cuts. At the school where my kids go to high school, they are under-enrolled. Everyone makes the team. We are not in the same division as some of the other more competitive high...

    WWYD - convenience store mishap

    I'd expect to pay, and would probably offer. I know that at some places when we have paid for an ice cream cone and one of my kids dropped theirs, they usually have replaced it at no charge. Adults make mistakes too, but I would pay.

    Survivor 46

    I liked that there was strategy and gameplay being discussed.

    Best time to go to Europe (London, Paris, Rome)?

    OP, there are many resources out there. We love Rick Steves guidebooks, website, and videos. He also still does a Monday Night Travel show on Zoom. It is great for those who love to plan their own trips.
