We take our kids to Disney World every year or two. We homeschool, so we can go during off times when it's not that crowded. But that's also when the baby boomer crowd likes to go....these people aren't old, just fairly young, well to do retirees. They make me crazy with how rude they are to...

People who don't say thank you when you hold the door for them. Can't tell you how many times I stop, wait, hold the door for someone and they walk right on past without saying a word. Like I have nothing else better to do in my day than make sure they have clear passage thru all doorways...

We had internet trouble a couple of months ago. Comcast needed to come to the house....they called me 4 (!) times to confirm the appointment (it was for a Saturday and we had only made the appointment on Thursday, so really excessive). We called them as soon as the window they had given us...

I think that's exactly it...when I answered these, I said that we do entertain and that I talk a lot (which I do IRL...not as good with the one-liners here on the board!). I think the other question that snags the frees for me is whether people seem to listen to your opinion or ask you for...

I requested the Cakesters earlier today and looked at my old offers...they say I got a pizza one, too, but I'm pretty sure I never received it, either.

My husband has sent me stuff from ProFlowers lots of times and I think it has always lasted longer. We have out of town relatives who like to send flowers for birthdays, etc. Those come from the local florist....and they look more stunning when you open the door. But, it always seems like one...

With pet accidents, you need to use an enzymatic cleaner to get the scent out. If you don't, and use, say, just vinegar or shampoo, there is a very high likelihood the pet will go back to that spot. We humans can't smell the scent markings left behind, but they can and it tells them that...

How about hummus with veggies or pita chips? Another thing I do and love...dried figs, cut in half...and then a little ricotta on each half. Then drizzle honey over it. When I have time, I chop some nuts and sprinkle those on top, too. But it's still delicious without the nuts. Not sure...

Well, I went to the doc yesterday. He gave me Xanax to take as needed and Lexapro, which he said would take a few weeks to work. I follow up in 3-4 weeks. Thank goodness I wnet and moved up my appointment. After taking care of my inlaws dog last weekend, I moved up my dog's checkup (I...

Thanks for all your responses. It's a huge relief to know that there may be something that can give me fairly immediate relief. It's hard for me to understand how a pill can help fix the runaway worry thoughts I have but I'll trust (and I know it'll need to be combined with talk therapy)...

I have a question for those of you who have been on meds for panic attacks. How long does it take for them to start working? I've always been one of those people who just seems to carry/hold tension more than others, but I've managed it. Which is to say, I can get by. And that's not the same...

Cooks Illustrated has a good resource. http://www.amazon.com/Make-Ahead-Recipe-Cooks-Illustrated-Magazine/dp/1933615141 It has a lot of great recipes with very clear instructions as to which freeze well, how best to freeze them and how to defrost them. In fact, many of the recipes were...
