  HoundsGood: Chronicles of a Virtual Volunteer — Authority: 123
  Someone near and dear to me is looking at sinks for the kitchen and the bathroom.

• Different Kitties

  
  Beth and Cory's Mom — Authority: 126
  Its so funny to see how different these two cats, Tillie and Weasley, are. Weve had Tillie since she was a tiny kitten, and no one has ever hurt her in any way, but shes such a timid thing. It doesnt take much to scare her - loud noises, sudden movements, and she disappears. Weasley, on the other hand, isnt scared ...

  Balancing Everything — Authority: 484
  Hmm. I’m really frustrated with my picture-taking in this dreary winter lighting. My house is positioned so that the lighting inside is never great, but it’s so much worse in the winter. Anybody have a recommendation for a good flash for my Canon Digital Rebel? I know flash is often a [...]

• Review: HoMedics Restore Clean Water System

  
  My Charmed Life — Authority: 468
  As a nursing mom of twins, I always have a water bottle close at hand. Our tap water leaves a lot to be desired in the taste department and for years weve been relying on bottled water from Costco. Its not the greenest solution, though we do faithfully recycle every bottle. Its probably not the most cost effective ...

  Head Rambles — Authority: 129
  That fucking guinea pig is driving me to drink. Actually, that’s not true.  I wish it were.  It would be handy to have someone or something to drive me home again from the pub when I have had a skin full. I will rephrase it.  That fucking guinea pig is driving me demented. For some unknown reason Minnie has ...
