What's with all the previews!!!

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 12 Jun 08

I took my boys (4 and 7) to see Kung Fu Panda yesterday. There were 23 minutes of previews. My 4 year old was ready to go home before the movie even started. Don't they know that kids don't have that kind of attention span. Heck,...

Where to go?

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 4 Jun 08

My husband and I are planning a 5 night getaway in the middle of July. We just can't decide where to go. Any suggestions? We'd like to keep it under $2000 flying from St. Louis. I've found that it's not very easy to do with...

Anyone else affected by the storms in the midwest last night?

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 31 May 08

We had a 100 year old tree fall on our house. Luckily it didn't do too much damage. Our neighbor's barn collapsed. I'm so tired of all these storms. Anyone else?

Would you let your mother-in-law take your child after this?

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 27 May 08

My in-laws were here this weekend and we decided to take them to the racetrack. Cars, not horses. Any way, it was my husband and I, my in-laws, my 2 sons, and my niece. My MIL decided to take my son and niece (who are both 6) down...

Today is my son's 4th birthday party. My dad is not coming because him and his new wife are too busy decorating for her daughter's graduation party, which is tomorrow night. At least that's their reason. She says their just too...

kids and trampolines

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 22 May 08

What are your thoughts on young children and trampolines? I have 2 very active little boys and thought a trampoline would help get rid of some of that energy. My husband has a completely different opinion. He thinks they are too...

I am 31 years old and have 2 little boys. My dad just got married last year and his new wife has already starting calling herself grandma. She signs cards that way and refers to herself as their grandmother when talking to other...

would you let someone cut in line?

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 21 May 08

I was at HObby Lobby today where I just ran in to get 5 things of cross stitch thread, that's it. I wasn't going to go because I was in a hurry, but they were for my mom. I get up to the checkout and there is a woman in front of...

Problems with my 6 year old

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 20 May 08

My 6 year old has started whining...about everything. I swear he's whining about something the moment he gets out of bed. Whether is's about the food we're having, or there's nothing for him to do, there's nothing on...

Does anyone pay full price any more?

cukal6 @cukal6 (146) • United States 20 May 08

I go to the store and just can't bring myself to pay full price for anything. With the price of everything going up, I'm tempted to wait a few weeks to see if things go on sale. Am I the only one out there who only looks at the...
