I have gone with my wife's idea of gifts for the kids this year with one exception. I have decided my step son and my son are going to go camping in the spring, just the three of us. I don't think my wife is going to like this since she won't be included, but I think we all need a bit of male...

I had to wind up going to the doctor today for a urinary tract infection. The only other one I can remember having was about 15 years ago. It's very uncomfortable and I don't like it. Now I'm on antibiotics and a medicine which is supposed to numb the bladder. I don't like it one bit.

So I was helping my wife cook yesterday and I got a huge surprise. My step son ran in the house and tackled me with a bear hug. Believe me, I couldn't have been more surprised. I guess I have been doing something right after all.

Is anyone going to get the flu shot this year? I stopped by the local clinic the other day and got one, but boy I've paid for it ever since. I know you can't get the flu, but my immune response to the vaccine has been extreme.

I have thought about this for quite some time but just never followed through on it. I want to start a savings account for each child and let the kids start adding to it. I would be the co-owner of the account so they couldn't take anything out without my permission. We have collected money for...

My son told me the other day he wants to be a doctor. I asked him why and he told me he wants to take care of the kids who are sick. I had no idea where he came up with the idea but he was pretty adamant about it. I guess I had better start saving now. :eek:

I have a friend who has decided she is going to follow the Paleo diet. I don't understand it much but I know enough to know a child wouldn't be very happy following it. What do you think of doing something like this?
