    Cheap guinea pig bedding ideas?

    We have used shredded paper for several years for our GP, and have no issues with it. The odor doesn't get too bad, you just need to change it like any other bedding. The best part for us is that we shred everything, junk mail, old homework, old bills (already paid) and then the GP can do...

    Am I missing something???

    OK, so I went to the DCL website to price out a package for next February or April (school vacations for the kids). I was thinking about doing a land & sea package, but I can't seem to find it on the website. Did they do away with this option? Does this mean that if you want to stay at WDW...

    Depressed w/no Disney vacation in sight!?!?

    Coming to the Dis has the opposite effect for me. It helps brighten my spirits just sharing in other people's plans. It also helps keep me motivated to get out of this financial hole we got ourselves into.

    1800 East West

    I started working with them recently on refinancing our mortgage and felt like they were tacking on additional fees that weren't discussed up front. I didn't like how we were being treated and decided to cancel our application with them. We are working with a local bank now and so happy...

    DH got a great raise!!

    It is so nice to hear happy news about an employer in these difficult times, when all we hear about are lay offs or huge bonuses for CEO's. Your DH is truly blessed to work for such a wonderful, caring person. It shows what a valued employee your DH is. Congratulations!!!

    Doing Disney with TONS of money

    Oh boy, if I had "tons of money", what I could do at WDW! Let's see, to start we'd do 2 weeks and then a 7 day cruise and stay in the Walt suite. I'd bring the "whole" family, mom, dad, aunts, uncles, cousins and cousin's babies, too, at least for one week. We'd stay at Ft Wilderness...

    Magic Jack vs Vontage !! Heard of it, Have it, Comments/ Opinions...

    We have Magic Jack and use it for our long distance calls only for now. We just got it in December, but so far we haven't had any problems with it. I think that we will give it a few more months and then drop our local phone line as well, and just use Magic Jack. It will be nice to get rid of...

    Inexpensive school uniforms

    My kids also wear blue pants and polo shirts as their uniform for school. I have found that the quality from the uniform company is not nearly as good as Land's End or even pants from Target. You will probably have much better success finding the right size for her, too. Good luck!!

    Ice storm in Nh

    Here is Somersworth, we still don't have power in parts of the city. My family and I are at a hotel for the night. I'm hearing that it could be "several" more days before the power is restored. I am at my wits end already. Mostly because all of the businesses near my home (about a half mile...

    Hi.....From New Hampshire

    That is just horrible about her son! It certainly will put a strange feel to the start of the school year, but having all of the kids around will probably help her through this very difficult time. Good luck to your DD. What grade is she going into?

    What To Do With Almonds

    I usually make my own trail mix with almonds. I mix dried cranberries, or raisins with the almonds. Sometimes, I throw in a small amount of mini chocolate chips, but not usually.
