    E-prescriptions

    Is anyone's doctor's office doing e-prescriptions? We don't get scripts written on paper anymore. Instead the doctor's office sends them directly to the pharmacy via a digital copy.

    Kids and the stove

    My kids are usually very responsible with the stove, but today we learned our daughter should not be using it. She left it on and caused a small fire. Luckily the pot burned itself up and it went out without any other damage. The house smells funny now, but hopefully a good steam cleaning will...

    B 12 Shot

    My wife gets the B 12 shot and loves it. Today I got one, and now I feel wiped. If I were not so busy I would lay down and take a nap. Is that a normal reaction?

    Make up and skin care in the budget

    We had some unexpected things come up and have had to make some sacrifices. My wife is an angel. She was willing to give up her makeup, hair care and skin regime money this month. She has been making exfoliating and moisturizer out of kitchen items. This week she crushed oats and mixed it with...

    Taco Night

    We had taco night last night. My son and I make them on our own. This was probably the best tacos we have ever made, and the best we have worked as a team too. I love when things like that work out to be a joy!

    Making friends at work

    I am not the sort of person who makes friends at work. I try to be civil and polite, but I don't hang out with people. Or I didn't until recently. I started hanging out with a man I work with, and now I wish I hadn't. How can I stop hanging out with this guy without making things difficult at work?

    Calender woes

    We have been trying to work out our family calendar, and it isn't going well. We always draw the conclusion that we need to clone ourselves or get and android like you see in the movies. We are going to have to cut activities, but the kids won't like this. How are we going to keep it fair?

    Online Health Account

    Our doctor has started an online health account. You can go in to make and cancel appointments as well as check test results and send messages to the nurses. You can also request prescription refills there. I think it is pretty cool.

    Spider bites

    My kids are getting a ton of spider bites all of the sudden. They have been inside because it is cold and rainy. I guess they are all coming in the house. How do you keep the spider population reasonable?

    My kids listen!

    We don't live in the best neighborhood. There are sometimes domestic disputes that spill in to the streets. I always tell my son to stay out of them, not to go see what'ts going on or stare. Instead I tell him to come in the house. He did just that today. So happy he really listens to me!

    Buying embarrassing things online

    I have to admit, the down side about living in a small town is that everything gets around. For that reason there are some things I will only buy online. For example I had hemorrhoids so I ordered medicine online. If you live in a small town, you get what I mean. Is there anything you will buy...

    Second Job?

    I am thinking about getting a second job for a while. I really want to give the kids an extra special Christmas this year since we have been so frugal. How long would you work 2 jobs at one time for? I want to avoid burn out.

    Working Late

    I think my kids are mad at me. I have had to work late every night for the past 2 weeks and I almost never see them. Their mom is great with them, but I am sure they are mad at me for not being around. How can I get them to understand this?

    Pizza or Chinese

    What is your favorite kind of take out or delivery? My wife and I love to get pizza delivered for the kids and sandwiches delivered for us. The down side about getting Chinese is that our kids won't eat it.

    How clean do you expect your house to be?

    I always feel as if my house is messier than other people's houses. My wife says I just have to get used to it being messy because we have kids. Do you think that is true?
