    Ocean City MD Q

    We have stayed at Long Acres Cottages. It is a bare bones motel but clean and safe. The owner is very nice and helpful. I believe the rates ran about 100.00/night. Our family prefers Assateague beaches to Ocean City and this motel is perfect for us. Good luck!

His father has helped us out a few times this year with bills but we decided that we have to weather this on our own and would no longer ask for help. We told his parents to not buy us anything...

    Just back from Hershey Park

    We live in MD and went to DC Friday. It cost 35.00 for us to ride the metro! I know things cost more now but when I was a kid the Metro was the cheapest and easiest way to go. Next time we might just drive down and pay to park. Karen

    Budget-friendly workout wear

    The two items I invest money for exercise are shoes and a sports bra. I love my Aasics and they have been well worth the extra money. I also love my sports bra. I bought at the Champion outlet store for about 30.00. For workout clothes Kohls has good sales on the Tek Gear and Fila lines. Karen

    Want to be the fun house for teens

    Our living room is at the top of the basement stairs and we can pretty much hear everything. I also make trips to the laundry room often when a big group is over.

    Want to be the fun house for teens

    We are the hang out place for the kids in the neighborhood. I love it. It does get expensive with the extra snacks but I will pay that for my peace of mind. The only thing that bothers me is that other parents do not reciprocate. I have an open door policy but some parents never invite other...

    Brownie pan cheap and is it worth the money

    It's a nice idea but it leaks on the bottom so make sure you place a cookie sheet under the pan. Not worth the hassle in my opinion. Karen
