Hi all... I'm new to the board and I am curious.


I am in my mid twenties, unmarried, no children. I work in an extremely competitive field with many other women my age. Many of us are making six figures and the job is very stressful. We all have a great work ethic, but sometimes when the stress gets really bad, I'll often hear the girls (never the guys) saying things like "Arrgghh... I'm so sick of work. I just want to marry a rich man, have kids, stay home and NOT WORK."....... I was raised by two working parents (two very loving, caring hardworking parents). My mother was very successful in her career, and I feel that when I get married, I will (like my mom) continue to work and raise children at the same time (my mom was definitely "super mom" ---she did it all and was great!)...... My main question: many of the women in my work stay in the position for about 5-7 years and then leave.....the funny thing is...

I am really perplexed by this notions of paiting houses/doors bright colors means you are lowering the property values.

Eastern NY and New England, as a general rule, get more snow from the Nor'Easters.

So a person is mentally unstable if they paint their door yellow.

We have a "cow house" in Morgantown. Literally painted like a cow. It's in one of the best neighborhoods in town. It's a blast to walk or drive by it.
