I'm a Tide girl...
I've never found a cheap laundry soap I like. They just don't make my clothes seem very clean.
I really like all these new detergents with Febreze and Downy in them that smell so nice. Looking at the big picture, unless you have like 10 kids you shouldn't be doing THAT much laundry to where you have to skimp on laundry soap. A large box lasts me a few months so I don't mind spending $15 on it.
Tide is great
I have wanted to try Tide because my stains just won't come out no matter how much bleach I put in with the detergent, usually store brand or one of the cheaper brands. I have 7 dogs, all white and they shed. I've been hanging my clothes out since my dryer broke and there is always hair on them from the dogs. I tried Tide mainly because of the stains to see if it really worked like it said. After washing a normal load that would have had dog hair on it, lots, as I was hanging up each piece I noticed no hair on anything. This is unbelievable to me. I only used 1 scoop for the whole load, a little bleach and I was shocked. This was not even why I bought it, but I am sold and will buy it from now on. I got is on sale 4.99 for 40 load size. It was well worth it and the clothes looked much brighter.
Liquid Tide, but I look for sales.

Totally serious. A box of Tide in a random drawing when I was about 15 and went..sm
to the store with curlers in my hair. What was I thinking? I get embarrassed remembering it. L-O-N-G time ago. I am thinking I am perhaps overdue for a win of some sort!
Agree. I use liquid Tide, which is concentrated, so

water for a long long ways and water is clean and beautiful. Can't remember the name, but it's about a 3-hour drive from San Antonio. I'll see if I can locate it. They go there all the time. nm
Are they mountain climbers by any chance? - sorry, I had to ask! nm

I use Smoky Mountain Minerals
http://www.smokymountainminerals.com/home,home.html. I really loved the Bare Minerals that my mom had given me, but it was a bit pricey, so I started using Smoky Mountain. I love the makeup. It's not heavy like normal foundation and I really like the halo glow. I have a pretty unevel skin tone myself and it covers that nicely without looking heavy.
Brokeback Mountain was good too. I want to see
I know it's hard for a lot of people to watch a movie about gay cowboys but it is really a love story at it's core, a heartbreaking one!!!
what flavor of herbal tea? Thunder Mountain
Thunder Mountain flavored tea has tons of caffeine so could cause some stomach discomfort. A good herbal tea for stomach upset would be Anise or Anise with Chamomile........
Don't do myself, but look at Fire Mountain Gems on line &

Has anyone ever crossed the mountain going from Staunton, VA . over 250 and into Snowshoe, W. Va.
That would be east to west. Just curious what those roads are like. Thinking of doing that on vacation.
I've had some of my best mountain-bike adventures
It's also a good day to ski (provided there's snow), especially after lunch, when the slopes become almost deserted.
Have you thought about having sort of an 'strays-Thanksgiving'? Where you invite a few friends or acquaintences of yours or your son's? My best Christmas Eve dinner EVER was a 'bah-humbug' dinner a friend put on for all us single 5th wheels with no where to go. That was one EPIC party.
Global warming - faction, fiction, political, mountain or mole hill
Trying to get a handle on whether people have bought into the global warming thing.
Do you believe it whole-heartedly 100% Gore-ly, or do you believe the scientist who have been studying global warming/cooling.
Also, do you believe a lot of it is politically-oriented.
Spring
GOOD THOUGHT.....I can't do cold weather......
I do that in the spring. I usually get a tool
and clip the dead parts back and remove them. It just makes them look all fresh and pretty, and then the dead sticks won't tear up the leaves if you get any wind. I am not certain if it is essential, but it improves the look a lot.
I wait until spring, too sm
I figure the dead leaves and stalks offer a little protection from the cold. The bed where I have the hydrangea stayed iced over for more than a week this past winter, and I thought I had lost the hydrangea. But in the spring I could feel that the branches were still supple and smooth at the bottom so we just cleared out the dead leaves, trimmed off the dead tips, and it came back beautifully. It has blossoms all over it that are getting ready to burst into bloom.
We just moved into this house last summer and I planted the hydrangea in a place where I thought it would have enough shade, but we had a bunch of 100+ degree days I was afraid the heat had killed it....until the cold came along and then I thought the same thing about the cold. But it is definitely "the little hydrangea that could"!! 
We are getting chickens this spring. .sm
So I have been doing a lot of reading about eggs and chickens. And yes, I have been very bored lately!
Spring Break
Our Spring Break is the week of the 13th. That's one of the weeks I take off from work so we can do things with the kids. Usually we take our vacation then and go away. Luckily it's usually half way decent here so at least the kids can go out and get some fresh air and play with the other kids in the neighborhood. Does your school district have any type of program for the kids during the break? Here there's a camp that the kids can go to at various locations.
My animals have spring fever
MY 2 cars, one is 13+ and the other is almost 7 are bugging me along with my dog to play, and just pay some attention to them. It is nice outside and they sure have the spring bug. Hard to resist them. Just took the dog for a long run in the park with another neighbor's puppy and though it would calm her down but now, she bring in her stuffed animals and when I ignore her she will throw them at my chair to get my attention. So I keep taking 5 to 10 minutes to play and now am behind. Oh well, it only happens a couple of times a year so gotta enjoy it. But even the 13 year old is sitting on my desk, which she never does, and playing with my papers, pens, knocking things down and then just looking at me, like "Did I do that." But it is so nice here in Portland today, up to 60 gotta take advantage as will probably rain tomorrow.
I saw my first robin of spring this morning!
I guess spring really is coming, even though we're still under 18" of snow in my neighborhood (yeah, it's shady in here). I'm about 30 miles north of Albany, NY. Anybody see a robin farther north?
spring cleaning blinds
I have blinds on my windows that are dusty and yucky. I'm wondering if anyone has a good way to clean them without taking them down. 
if you go to Pismo...go in the spring or fall...
Summer is very very foggy most of the time (I went to college in San Luis Obispo about 15 miles away). Also, if you do go, you MUST go to Del's pizza in Shell Beach for dinner one night. Fairly inexpensive and very good food--not just pizza. In my opinion, it is the best restaraunt in the area.
Talk about some spring cleaning
My house is getting in really good shape. I, like you, also have some medical issues, 1 being fibro. Some days I am so achy I just could cry. Most days my ribs are so sore cannot touch me. Having said that I continue to work because my husband thinks I can do the work IF not working and I just do not care to do it. I do washing and hang that up in the washroom, cleaning person hangs in closet because the poles are really high for this 5Ɗ" person to jump up to. I pay the person myself. My husband does not so what I pay for, work for and really mine to spend as I like.
Spring Break!!! Let's go to the Labrador Islands!!

yep - Spring ahead, Fall back.....
After an absolutely crummy winter/spring...
Here in the beautiful Pacific NW, I mean really cold, below normal temps, snow very late into the season...
We are expecting some 90+ degree days starting tomorrow into the weekend - and I for one am HAPPY! My poor halter tops haven't seen daylight for so long I forgot what they look like.
Happy Birthday! I'll be there in the spring. nm

will high gas prices affect your spring/summer travel
j/c. I wanted to go to the beach this year but I don't think we will now. 
Anyone else going to Cancun for Spring Break and concerned about current safety concerns
We're all set to go to Cancun for Spring Break and then we hear all of this on the news about people being careful in Mexico because of the drug cartel activities and killings etc. Does this even involve Cancun or is it just the border places. The Spring Breakers are being warned about going so it makes me wonder if it is just the borders as most Spring Breakers do not go to the border towns. Does anyone have anymore information. I have a good friend who met her husband in Mexico, has crossed the borders etc and she said going to Mexico isnt worth risking your life because they hate Americans. Yikes.. I don't know whether to go or not or if I'm just being paranoid now.
