If you're ridin' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there.

When you give a lesson in meanness to a critter or a person, don't be surprised if they learn their lesson.

schedule for homeschooling with time alloted for everything, including reading your bible verses
It's ok Helen, I already bought the 30 dollar book that comes with wall charts, clip out time blocks color coordinated by person, and sticky stuff. It's on my wall.
Only trouble is, whatever the chart of my ideals has scheduled for 8 am, I just do it at 11. I do it all...I run behind schedule.
You can get one here:

I see they have a new book coming out called "Preparing Sons to Provide for a
Single-Income Family". Darn, that one is about 38 years too late for me. I only have girls.

Free schedules, chore charts, stuff to print galore:

LoL jt,
It looks like you have every link to every eventuality that might occur in your life!
One more hint,
Raising chickens is very easy and they are very cheap to feed. It doesn't take a lot of food for the chickens. They also will keep bugs and insects out of your yard, if you turn them out daily. Anyone can raise chickens, they are some of the easiest animals you can raise. If you and your family decide to raise chickens, I think you will all enjoy it. They are very fun to watch, plus they will provide you with food.

Helen, We do have chickens, ROFL. We don't eat them but we do eat the eggs when the snakes don't.
Now, let me tell you what's wrong with this MOTH planner that I got for $30 since I know you are dying for a book review.
The charts are SO COOL, however....
This woman's system does NOT work for me.
First she is SCHEDULED. She has spent 30 minutes a day at exactly 2 pm 6 days a week sewing for 15 years. (She tells you exactly how many items of each type she has sewn in that time.) I am a louse!
Secondly, she has like 8 kids so her "system" works like this:
8 year old play with 2 year old while mom works with 10 year old.
12 year old hold 4 year old up in air while 4 year old dusts light fixtures.
12 year old read to 8 year old while mom works with 2 year old while 10 year old prepares lunch for 10 people.
2-3 pm, MOMMY time!:
10 year old do puzzles with 2 year old.
12 year old do art with 10 year old.
13 year old bathe the baby.
8 year old scrub wheels on the van while 3 year old cleans out the trash.
I am short staffed!
Finally,
10-10:21 pm: Hubby gaze into wifes eyes for 21 minutes and ask her how was her day.
Yeah right.
T
And...her computer time block per day is 15 minutes. ROFL!

If you are viewing a very long list of auctions by a particular seller and looking only for auctions with a particular word in the title use the CTRL F search function in IE.
This function also works well when you are trying to find a specific post on a message board thread (e.g. a post mentioned in another post).

Speaking of pizza, they raise chickens in Mississippi and teach them Italian in the hope of providing the source for Domino's Italian Chicken Supreme.
Bonjourno!

Thanks for that tip, Irene. Can't tell you the number of times I've scrolled down many pages of a sellers auctions, looking to see if they have anything else like their item I found by searching titles and descriptions. This tip will save me a tremendous amount of time.

Linda:
If you've clicked on "view seller's other auctions" you only see 25 auctions per page. Edit out the "25" in the last part of the url, replace with "all" and press enter. All the auctions will be on one page. THEN, use CTRL F to search.
(Credit for this tip goes to Kevin - he passed on this suggestion when I was complaining about long listings of mixed items last year.)

Shop for Christmas presents before October. The real bargains are put away after then.
For example, I just bought two of my nephews a pair of jeans each that zip off at the knees. Cost per pair: $3.00

My most important tip ever:
Make sure you show and tell people that you really care about how you feel about them. That way if anything bad ever happens, you know in your heart that they know how you feel. "I love you" are three wonderful words that you cannot say often enough.

Here's a tip that I just discovered yesterday:
You can easily create an HTML file in SECONDS which lists ALL your Internet Explorer favorites as hyperlinks.
Select from the menu: File --) Import/Export
Then follow the instructions in the Import/Export wizard.
Separate HTML files can also be created for each subdirectory of your favorites.
These HTML files can simply be kept for back-up or can be used to import your favorites back into IE on a different computer.

KRS, let me teach you a good Southen Baptist "almost lunch" hymn:
Pizza Hut! (make pointy roof over your head)
Pizza Hut! (pointy roof)
Kentucky Fried Chicken (flap wings)
an'na Pizza Hut! (pointy roof)
McDonald's, McDonald's (arches to head X2)
Kentucky Fried Chicken (flap)
an'na Pizza Hut! (pointly roof)
Repeat faster each time.
I can't remember the second verse very well...hmmm...
Darth Vader!
Darth Vader!
na-na-na-na
an'na Joba da Hut.
????
Ok, I don't know the second verse I admit...missed church too often...but it's the first one you need to know anyway. You know NOTHING about Southern chickens until you have seen 150 grey haired men in tight suits do this.
