I'll paraphrase a comment I made just yesterday with a (more dubious) re-posted article: I can understand re-posting articles that may be of interest to new readers but out of respect for your long-time readers, could you not label them 'From the Archives'? It would really help your credibility.

Cailey and tammigirl, thanks for all the great info and ideas!
@daffodil, maybe time yourself on tucking in the bedding on the platform bed. You may realize it doesn't take that long!
@xarcady, you could transfer your lotion to a nice container that could be left out on the nightstand.
