kelly60 This looks like it might be a really good place to buy crafts, or to sell them. I checked out your store. Although I'm not in the market for anything, I did enjoy looking.

wachit14 I did not vote for him so I can honestly say that I would not vote for him or anyone else in his family again. I do know several people who did vote for him and feel the same way that your mom does. He has sadly disappointed the country and we need a change...

Although my husband and I have been married for 10 years as of the beginning of June, our inside joke is that I only married him for his medical insurance. In a way it is the truth. When we met, I was struggling thru a divorce,...

Leca My husband and I lived together for five years before getting married. There were a lot of reasons why we didn't get married sooner, but largely it was because my ideas about marriage were formed based on very bad marriages that I saw around me. My mother had...

baldingeagle69 I didn't vote for Bush or his papa. I couldn't vote for a Bush. Is he really a Bush or just an overgrown weed that you can't actually get rid of? You try to pull it out, it just has too many roots to get them all. You try to trim it, and it grows by the...

cutepenguin I've never done this with jeans - I have with t-shirts though, and you just sort of rip back and forth to make a really long strip. I found instructions on someone's blog, I think it was while I was looking up stuff on rag rugs.
