I keep a cute little notebook in my purse, spiral bound, so I slip a pen in it. And I don't tear out the pages so that way I have a quick archive of previous shopping lists to refresh my memory. ...

Ooh one more thing re: clutter... I am FAR from a packrat, but somehow I still have so much clutter. Even after my twice-annual purging sessions, I find that a lot the necessities just don't stor...

I have the keys for: parents, sister, friend with cats. The people who have my keys are: mom, dad, sister, friend with cats (I have a dog and we swap pet duties), boyfriend.

Real Simple Newsweek Interview Archeology I get others, but only because I gifted them to friends and apparently I'm on a Free Subscription For Life list as a result.

Hanging stuff along the community/public balcony rail in an apartment building is definitely tacky, but a clothes line in your back yard? Your neighbor needs to chill out. Also, don't...

I have six standard sized pillows. What. I need all of them.

UM, why does the fridge say smeg? Is that a brand? If so, it's an unfortunate name choice.

I think these newly proposed laws to "help" people in their self-imposed "mortgage crisis" are crap. On the surface, these renter laws make sense because the renter had no part in the mortgage cri...
