Do you want to become billionaire??? If yes........

Goatlady Billionaire, I don't think so - think of the problems that would accompany it. A millionaire - maybe, then I wouldn't have to worry about where the college fees, school fees, etc are going to come from for my children, and the house would be paid off, and I'd...

Goatlady Well, when I used to come home on holidays, I would rent a manual, and when I lived in the US, it was automatic. I don't mind either one, but to be more practical as a parent, and in consideration of what may be down the road as far as disabilities, this is...

Goatlady I dont think its wrong to be here for the money, but the fact that we can express our feelings and earn a penny or two for it makes it extra special. Nothing wrong with being here for the money, but sometimes we don't realize the good we are doing on these...

Goatlady To develop and keep a positive attitude is extremely hard work, and in order to keep it up, every once in awhile you really need a breakdown, a good cry, then pick yourself up and paste the smile back on. I know - I've felt so horrible the past week, but I...

Goatlady sounds like they are bored, or they are lacking some minerals. Do you have a mineral lick in with them. The thing we did with some of ours is put an old fisher price picnic table in with them to climb and play on.

Goatlady Personally, I would do my best to work on both sites as I need the money, and anything that can earn me money for voicing my opinion is great, especially since it means I can be home with the children and do my other chores as well.
