christinalyw Did you see her face. She was laughing at Dan, telling him that you can't kill her. Well, guess he proved her wrong. I started watching OTH as reruns, and have become addicted. Brooke is my favorite character. She has come the longest way over the...

christinalyw I read alot of fiction- Mystery, Romance Nora Roberts is my fav author. She writes a great deal of Romance novels, but they are also filled with drama, not just the sappy stuff. Her books written as JD Robb are awesome thrillers and suspence.

What is your favourite colour of horse?

Oeillade @Oeillade (87) 30 Jun 07

My favourite colour is piebald. But I have noticed that coloured horses are selling for at least £1,000 more than whole coloured horses. Is this just a fashion or will it continue?

kimberlylynn @kimberlylynn (978) • United States 20 Dec 07

I love post-it notes but they are so expensive and my kids always take them from me too. Any alternatives? Those message cubes are overpriced and I don't have a paper cutter to make things out of. I was wondering if there is a...

christinalyw I find that a great alternative to post its, when I need a scrap paper and there is none left, are index cards. You can get a stack of 100 for 50 cents. This is way cheaper than post its, and I just tape them where I wanted the post it to go. I quit...

christinalyw I'm not sure I can offer advise. But I can tell you that it is normal to feel like youshould take care of them. If it's possible, if they do move, could they move near you and not WITH you. That may be a solution. You cold still look after them, but not have...
