Dell 10" netbook for $500 is not a good deal. It is just a netbook without the CD drive. If you want a screen this small, get an Acer or HP netbook, Costco had them for $260-300. There was even a "package" with an external DVD drive, mouse and a case for the netbook for $400. Those netbooks have a different type of processor than regular laptops, called Intel Atom, and they can't run Vista (I think), so they all...

She's taken all talk of Machu Pichu off her Facebook page but I don't think they've cancelled the trip...I think she just feels the need to keep her hiking adventures (!) to herself for a while!

I would also suggest a coffee cup of a shape/size that can also be used as a soup/cereal bowl: college students can always use more of those. ( and you can fill it up with bacon and wasabi flavored gumballs from archie mcphees)

I would never make standard mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving. No way, too last minute. I make a mashed potato casserole in the morning , really creamy and good. Get lots of raves. You know, I don't like brussels sprouts but maybe I should give the roasted ones a try. I just adore roasted cauliflower...but my "boys" won't touch that vegetable so I stay away. I think I need to make it for myself though. To the OP, good...

Dancing with the Stars Latin dances. I think of myself as a really good dancer so thought this would be fun (and people on here recommended zumba, though I couldn't find a zumba tape), but the girls are in heels on a dance floor and I'm in sneakers on carpet so I'm not as smooth as I would like. And Cheryl Burke demonstrates a dance move in slow-mo that looks doable, but then when she "syncopates" it -- her...

I'd ask her whether she has plans and that you'd love for her to come to your house if she feels up to it. That way, she knows you're thinking of her and that she has a place to go if no one else has mentioned it. Also, I'd feel compelled to ask her kids, too. I would imagine the newly married kid might want to host his/her first T'giving.

Write down your financial information, computer passwords, location of safe deposit box, etc etc.!!! I know two recent widows who are in the dark on their own finances. One husband died suddenly, but one fought a long battle with cancer and really truly should have done this before he passed away. Sorry to hijack, but this has been on my mind lately.

She's a sensational songwriter (or she has sensational helpers, but I tend to believe it's her). She's not a sensational singer, or even sensationally beautiful, but she's tall, blonde, has great hair, and manages to project genuine emotion and enjoyment when she performs. I was watching that show intermittently last night (cooking dinner, then after Glee); for the most part, the performances ...

What does the future hold? It will be up to him- he will have certainly lots of time to decide what he wants to do with his life - ( assuming he has some sort of therapy in prison and it is successful-) Many people are still deciding what they want to do with their life when they are in their early 30's ( or 40's) I hope he uses the time to get straightened out.

Addendum to this: If your primary care physician does a thyroid panel of tests and they come back in the "normal range," sometimes it pays to still follow up with an endocrinologist.

My sons knew better than to ask me if they could have a co-ed sleepover. I never saw any reason to put kids into that kind of situation. Unlike many parents, I still have a very clear memory of the raging hormones that exist at that age. To my knowledge, co-ed sleepovers aren't common in my area, but even if they were, my sons knew that they wouldn't be participating in such things. H and I ...
