Sounds interesting. Is it really really scary or just kinda scary? I don't like things that are TOO scary.

Eoghan loves banjo but he insists on taking the pick himself and strumming along. Unfortunately.

Yep, that's the cartoon (or similar) that immediately came to my mind about frog's legs, too. :) Wasn't there an old Ray Milland movie about the frogs taking revenge? djm Yes. It was hilariously stupid. One of the worst movies I've ever seen next to the one with the giant bunny rabbits. What are yo...

Found a place!

Ok, for all of you who gave me advice when I was trying to decide whether to take that duplex, here is an update on my house search. :-) We finally found a place! It is another 3-bedroom duplex, in the same town that we are in now but close to the hills. Unfortunately there are no cafes within walki...

Ok, after all that agonizing, the landlady rented it to someone else. Maybe it is for the best anyway; hopefully we will find a bigger place instead.

Ok. The Great Chiff has spoken You know what you must do. I bow to the will of the majority. :) I actually spend very little time at home right now, but I remember when Eoghan was a newborn I was home a lot. People have told me that I will have to spend more time at home after the second one is bor...

Moving advice needed

Hi all, We are planning to move in June or July, and we looked at our first possible rental yesterday. Right now I am really torn as to whether we should take it, so I thought I'd ask for some advice. It is a duplex, and it is small, no bigger than our apartment where we are now. It is three bedroom...

Mainly toddler-chasing but every now and then I get to read or play the Sims. Every once in a while I even get to play music.

My husband will attest to this: If you have someone learning an instrument in the family, it should either be the flute or the harp. The flute because you have to get pretty good before you can MAKE a sound, and the harp because it's almost impossible to make a BAD sound on it! :lol: Congrats on th...

From what I've read and heard of attempts to promote ITM with young people in Ireland, what is successful is not you choosing an instrument of your choice and foisting it on the child, nor in forcing any sort of music education on the child, but to surround them with other children who are also lea...
