How new parents can save money by making diaper wipes “Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them.” – Richard L. Evans Baby Sam is three weeks old today and already it feels like we’ve spent a thousand dollars on formula, diapers, and baby wipes.

Is there life after Christmas? For old Christmas trees, that is….. This year, instead of allowing your old tree to take up space in a landfill, you may want to consider an “afterlife” for your tree. If your acreage allows, send it out back where it becomes cover for wildlife, or, better yet, leave it standing in the back yard decorated with cranberries, popcorn, suet and peanut butter covered pine cones to keep your feathered and furry friends happy through the winter months.

Look, It’s an Orphan Soul Hanging like a Dead Crow from the Tree! Every time I visit a supermarket or a mall to buy something, I come away with a sense of guilt because invariably I am holding a plastic carry bag like a dead rabbit. I say dead rabbit because a rabbit is one of the cutest little animals I have ever seen in my life.

But I think my revulsion was a bit out of place because people must

I had been at the store for a few months, and we’d had a few animals dropped off for adoption or abandoned at the store before, but I admit I was still stunned when a pretty young
