Always let someone know you are going and how long it will be till you get back; or better yet, bring someone to wait outside. I nearly got stuck two different times. The locks are pretty old!

It's a horrible feeling, that hot wave of panic in a not so sweet smelling place!

Looks like we have a few things in common Tracie....teenage girls, One Direction and we are going to Kuaii also, this June! Staying in a house in Heana? Something like that. I'll probably have some questions for you. Glad you had a great trip!

Got caught up in life and forgot to check back...Coco's mom-that is FABULOUS! I'm still on the fence as far as my tickets (would go with my sister-in-law) but this might be the way to go. Thank you everyone for your support as my husband just doesn't understand! Although he did throw in some hotel m...

OMG SHES GOING! Ha ha ha....the ticketmaster sold out in 2 seconds, didn't get that but found 2 on some site that my friend said is good, ticket liquidators? So crossing my fingers on that one as far as fraud, got a reasonable price (too much, but whatever) on great seats....hotel booked. Not sure i...

You guys rock, I don't feel as guilty anymore for even considering it. :lol: I just called the school and they haven't set exam dates yet but I do fear this is going to be too close to that time. She would miss the 24th and 25th of May, then there is Memorial day Monday off and then exams start that...

Ha Waterguy, I know what you are saying but this day and age...my daughter is probably one of the very few 9th graders who has never been to a concert. I'm not saying she "deserves" it though!

need advice from old forum friends!

Hi everyone, long time! I have been laying low from most of my usual internet activities to get my life back :) But I have a little issue that is just so stupid I can't ask my local friends. My sweet 14 year old is totally obsessed with this new band One Direction. When I say obsessed I mean this is...

Oh, I hope you are evacuating or have done so already! You really aren't probably going to be able to if it "gets bad"...trees or powerlines can be in the road and you absolutely don't want to be in a car in heavy rain or possible areas that might be flooded. I think leaving in the middle ...

I have a 13 year old girl, almost 14. I was against Facebook at first, but have to say I am really glad we decided to let my daughter get it, for many reasons. I have the password and check her wall just about every day. Like others have said, I have learned a LOT about her friends and kids in the s...

My husband is from Myrtle Beach. You might find a day or two of unseasonably warm temperatures occasionally in the winter in Myrtle Beach, but it isn't going to be warm on a regular basis, I promise. With the wind it can feel bitter cold in late December and January and in surrounding months. That s...

I also like to put the gifts in a bag so it is very clear that it is not intended for use that night. And ideally I leave it in a spot in the kitchen or somewhere they will open it after everyone is gone, especially if it is a large party. I don't want the hostess to have to open it in front of me a...
