1. Will you be shopping on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

2. "5 months of bills...." as the song says. Do you have a budget for the holidays or do you have "5 months of bills..."?

3. What is one food that most people make for Thanksgiving that you do not like?

4. Do you dress up for Thanksgiving?

Not me. From what I gather on this thread from cherubs, that's the way we should all be doing it. we've been told over and over again that it's wrong for kids to do any of that stuff, and I've been repeatedly berated for doing my own things and not giving up everything to spend all my time with or for my children.

She uses his ds before she goes to bed.

He does get reprimanded and has gotten better with just sitting in his room, watching TV, reading a book, playing his ds or sometimes playing the wii in the living room.

i have a friend who always yells at her kids, she said there's not a day that goes by when she doesn't and continued with the opinion that if her kids ever saw her calm, they'd probably wonder what was up.

So it is just handed to the person? I fold everything but I don't care too much to have it "showroom" folded that is going to be hung up.

I don't have a housekeeper. Dh does the laundry and the dishes. We all split the rest of the cleaning duties.

Who said EVERYTHING to spend ALL your time with or for your children?

Again, why would you fold something that is going to be hung up? I either hang the stuff up right out of the dryer or directly from the basket when I bring it upstairs.

I don't think ds will ever be a late sleeper either. Just like his dad.

My bad. You USED to have a cleaning lady, housekeeper, whatever you want to call it, right?
