Guy Talk

If he is "watching the game" or in a vehicle with his buddies it becomes very difficult for him to say things that he would normally say. For example...if I am talking to him on the phone and I tell him I love him he will respond with something like, "right on" if he is around his friends.

Jackie — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:20:50 +0000

My youngest son is turning 3 this summer which means he may be ready for pre-school. My older son was not ready for school when he was 3 so I am really on the fence about sending my youngest to school. Part of me wonders if pre-school at the age of 3 is even beneficial.

Why Do Labels Make Women So Happy?

Jackie — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 12:35:45 +0000

I recently dragged my husband into a Chanel store while we were in California. To my surprise he had no idea how much Chanel bags, jackets, accessorizes, etc really were.

It was almost as if he screamed to whole store..."I''m from Jerome". He proceeded his shocking laughter with, "Jackie, did you see the price of this bag".
