I’ve had a splinter in the palm of my hand for about two years now. After a certain point in time, don’t they enact squatter’s rights?

Weekly check is a good idea. I knew I was buying stuff, I just didn’t know I had put it all on one card.

Went to pay my credit card last week and my bill was about $2000 higher than last month. Holy Hell! Somebody stole my credit card number! I looked through the transactions. Oh, no, wait... That was all stuff that I bought.

I really have to get a handle on my depression-based shopping excursions.

That’s exactly what I did. I really wish they’d let me choose which shelf, though.

Same here. My want to read shelf is books that I already own that I want to read. I have a to-buy shelf for books that (wait for it) want to buy. Hopefully they let us tailor our goodreads deals to apply to a certain shelf, otherwise this is going to be a bunch of emails that are going straight into my spam folder.

I had two. The first was a local artist. My high school designed a mentoring after-school program and I signed up. She was pretty amazing and showed me everything she knew about printing, presses, proofs, framing, licensing, etc. It was everything I needed to know about selling and producing mass-scale art. It was…

Funny! I’ve been wearing mine for about a year and a half and this morning was the first time it had come off my arm while sleeping. I didn’t even notice I didn’t have it on until I saw this article. Had to go and dig through my blankets to find it. It definitely wouldn’t work well as an alarm if it falls off while…

I’m a saggy G and that band is not going to help. I’d rather be more careful with my cadence and wear two sports bras than buy something that’s definitely not going anywhere near my ladies.

That picture just looks so uncomfortable.

I was just thinking of all the chafing and rashes that would result from this band.

In my previous home, I noticed some of the wall outlets were getting burn marks, so I made a point to replace the outlets. Discovery: no grounding wires and one two-outlet receptacle actually only had enough wires for ONE outlet. Negative wire went to one outlet and positive went to the other. I’m not even sure how…

It was parchment paper. I’ve baked with waxed paper before and made the switch when my kitchen filled up with smoke (no fire though). It might have been the type of oil spray. We had just switched over to an olive oil cooking spray.

The oven fire instructions I could have used about two weeks ago when my husband sprayed parchment paper with Pam, set a pizza on top, and then popped it in the over. Not even two minutes passed before I spotted a curious light in the oven. The parchment paper was on fire. I didn’t know this was a thing. My husband…

I live in the sticks of PA and just had my (very tiny) roof patched/repaired. It cost $1000 more than the highest estimate here. Quite certain I will not be contacting that builder again.

I am not even sure how people manage to file early. We just got another tax form for 2015 last week in the mail—which marked the third tax document we had received in March alone. At this rate, I won’t be surprised if I receive 2015 tax information in the mail come July.

I know there are some rules out there somewhere…

Just read the RealSimple tipping chart. Holy hell! Do people actually tip that many people that often?

Thanks Heather! I thought there might be a few posts about tipping already.

Every time I see an article about how to tip certain people, it makes me realize I really don’t know who I’m supposed to and not supposed to tip. An article on tipping in general would be greatly appreciated.

Tried to tip my accountant this weekend. She wouldn’t accept the tip. I wouldn’t even consider tipping a wedding vendor. I really don’t understand who you should and shouldn’t tip. Either everyone gets a tip or nobody gets a tip.

I think it has to do with baby-making abilities. I was married in my mid-20's, but doctors and friends kept harping on me to procreate before I was 30. Now that I’m in my mid-30's (still no minions), my doctors are saying “oh, you have plenty of time to have children yet, if you want to!”

My guess would be the dye. Are they a different color than your other towels?
