    anyone a pro with scholarship stuff?

    Just went through this last year with DS18. Our high school counselor provided regular emails to students and parents with scholarships (national, state and local) and the deadlines. We then looked at requirements and decided which ones to apply for. We also applied for scholarships at each...

    So whats the worst xmas gift ever received

    Thought I had received the worst gift but that DNA test and peanuts to the allergic person beats this one. DH and I received (from his parents) a jar of Beef Sticks and measuring spoons. Yep, neither of us even like beef sticks. Can you say cheap? Most years it was cash, so we are not sure...

    Is Walmart food really that good.

    Bought ground beef once, and only once. Produce at our local Walmart is overipe and sometimes moldy, esp those strawberries. Dislike the GV brand, but do buy name brand pantry items like cereals, chips, etc. Much prefer the Kroeger brand over the GV brand, if buying store brand.

    And the name of the Royal baby issss...

    My dh said the same thing last night. You two must have the same sense of humor:rotfl2:. But I would have liked Alexander for first name. When I think of the name George, I think of the nursery rhyme, Georgie Porgie Pudding and Pie. My kids have named every stray cat and one of the...

    I know he has to deal with this himself....

    Scout mom here. DS17 is Eagle Scout, DH was a Life Scout and is a Scoutmaster, and DS12 is a 1st class scout. If this were my son, my advise would be this. He has two options. One is to deal with the situation as best as he can and encourage him to find the positives in it or the other...

    Viggle App: Get rewards for watching television!

    Thanks for the info. I know that itunes has been gone for awhile. Is there a way to tell when it will be available or do you just have to keep checking on Viggle? I was hoping that Starbucks wasn't going to turn into a limited one also. Used to get Target when I first started Viggling and...

    The absolute worst was in KC, Missouri about 25 years ago. Drove up to hotel later in the evening. First sign should have been bars on the windows, but we checked in and went to room. Open door to a room about 110 degrees; middle of July in Missouri is hot.:furious: Call to desk. They don't...
