Too bad the facility we put dad in didn't have these. We had to bring him home after just a month because paying for the facility plus privately hired fulltime caregivers was draining the bank accounts. So now he's at home with 24/7 caregivers. At least we don't have to pay for the facility too.

Use recipes from the Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk. Excellent and easy. I bought their recipe nook more than 35 years ago. My favorite is the chocolate chip with a crushed oreo crust.

My identical twin cousins (55m) are mirror images of each other, down to the natural part in their hair. One on the left, one on the right. For me that was the only way to tell them apart growing up. Then they both got buzz cuts for the police academy, and have kept them ever since. Now I have to wait and see which wife goes to which guy.

Do not, I repeat, do not put in a built-in microwave! It will eventually break down and you will not be able to find a new one that fits that space. Just build an open, vented, framed shelf with an easy to access electrical outlet nearby, that is a bit bigger than your current microwave. Slide in and slide out. Plus the bit of extra space alongside is great for cutting boards.

Extracurricular activities are important but... do not let everything they do end in a competition. So many places that offer lessons in things end the course with a competition. Swimming, horseback riding, ice skating, &c. Let the kid try something without the pressure. And for goodness sake, don't run out and buy the kid all the top of line gear until you and the kid are certain this is something they want to pursue. A friend of mine pays for a storage locker that holds all her now 30yo daughter's stuff, from ice skates to a kayak. Things she never did again after finishing the beginner's class.
