Does Being a Little Cold Make You Want to Eat?

ladym33 @ladym33 (10978) • United States 23 Jan 13

They say people always gain weight in the winter time because our bodies try to retain more fat to help keep us warm. There may be some truth to that. It is 3 degrees outside so it is a little cold in the house and I am a bit...

reddog25770 I agree with you. We're at a whole 5 degrees outside and I've been eating all day. Generally I skip breakfast. I'm not a morning person and can't look at food before lunch time. Not today. I ate at 9am and started looking for something for lunch around 12:30....

reddog25770 Thats a tough position to be in. I think for today you should take him. By doing so in the past you kind of gave the impression that you would do it when needed. But I would sit down with your daughter and let her know that it can't keep happening. Taht with...

Where did it all go?

Amber @AmbiePam (121831) • United States 21 Jan 13

The money, that is. Do you ever get out all your bills and your bank statement and try to figure out where your money could possibly have gone? I got to the point I could not fathom how fast my money was going so I got out every...

reddog25770 I know how you feel. Balancing the check book has to be one of the worst jobs ever. Its like a form of punishment. Hate to see what the bills add up to and what the paycheck is. Never seem to have much left over. I swear we work just to pay bills.

How old is too old for shared bath

poppoppop111 @poppoppop111 (5731) • Canada 21 Jan 13

This might seem strange to some but I want to get opinions on sharing a bath with your child. How old do you think it's too old for a mother to sit in a bath with their daughter.

reddog25770 I did shared baths with my daughter until she was about a year old. She was terrified of the bath and it was much easier to bath with her. Finally she got better with it and I could sit on the side of the tub with my feet in the water so she could hold on to...
