I think that most people have a tv..how long could you go with out it. Do you think it's a necessity?I got rid of my tv and find that I am doing more things then I use to. The decision to get rid of this is when I had a friend...

shovmama I went without a TV all summer, not willingly, and let me tell you it's not easy! Ours died (ok, we got ONE channel) and you don't realize how much you miss it until it's gone. We couldn't even watch the news! People would ask if we saw such and such and it...

I'm in a quandry! What should I do?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 22 Oct 07

About a month ago, I took a mini-vacation from My Lot to pursue other better paying opportunities online. And, so far it's paid off. The other opportunities don't take too much time out of my schedule, but they pay much better...

shovmama First of all, I was wondering what it is you are doing to make money online? I am a housewife in desperate need of making some real money from home as getting a "real job" is just not possible for the time being. As for your question, if it were me, I would...

Are Mothers Made or Born?

jayger04 @jayger04 (64) • Australia 22 Oct 07

My belief is that there are some women who are meant to be mothers, and some that learn to be mothers. Being a mother covers such a whole spectrum of roles and a massive learning experience for all involved. New mums grow with...

shovmama I don't think that all women are meant to be mothers, but I also think that childhood has a lot to do with it. When I was just barely 9, I was taking care of 2 newborns full time because my aunt was one that should not have had kids. She wasn't a "bad" mother,...

Do you have a big family with lots of kids?

gwendovere @gwendovere (1279) • United States 22 Oct 07

I only have one child, but I hope to have more someday. My whole life, I've dreamt & daydreamt of having five or more children. I think it would be so much fun to have a big family! So much to do, and all the kids would have...

shovmama I am the only girl with 5 brothers. Unfortunately, I'm stuck right in the middle with 2 older, and 3 younger, and every one of them are bigger than me and always have been. I am a firm believer that NO girl should EVER have that many brothers. No girl should...

Is There Anyone Who Hasn't Read The Harry Potter Series Besides Me?

Deborah L. Alten @gtargirl (5376) • United States 5 Oct 07

Okay now, no attacking the innocent reader, but I read the first book only because my son's fourth grade teacher was reading it in class. I never had an interest to read the rest of the series. Neither did my son. Don't get me...

shovmama You're not the only one! I've never read any of them or seen the movies and just don't really have any desire to. My son on the other hand has read all of them and he loves them. 15 years ago, I would have but that phase is long gone.

How OLD Do you LOOK????

monkeywriter @monkeywriter (2003) • United States 3 Oct 07

Age is a funny thing. Some look it, some dont. You can try to stop looking old if you are by putting on cream or dying your hair from gray to another color. But naturally how OLD do you look? Do you got a baby face? Or do you...

shovmama I know I don't look my age. I'm 32 but recently got ID'd to buy lottery tickets (only have to be 18 to buy them). Noboday EVER believes I'm as old as I am. I got it from my mom, who looks nowhere near her age (she's 56). Everywhere we go, people think we're...

shovmama I would absolutely do it if I had to. My mom has done it twice. The first time was on my brother when he just kept getting into trouble. She was hoping it would straighten him out and it did, but it took awhile. The second was on my cousin when my 2 yr. old...

They are taking this to far now.

devilsangel @devilsangel (1817) • United States 20 Sep 07

Ok I heard on the news the other day that apartment complexs were trying to get a ban so that you couldn't smoke in your own apartment. Are you freaking kidding me? Who the hell do they think they are trying to tell people what...

shovmama As I sat here reading this, I felt compelled to light a smoke just because (for now, anyway) I can. I've had it with the government sticking their nose into business that is none of theirs. You're absolutely right. Who the hell do they think they are? I'm sick...
