Those pennies do add up, I'm told.

Congratulations on the grandbaby - much joy in your household, I expect.

You're the winner so far. Hope you got a fill-up! nt

I can only speak for myself; have very little or no idea what motivates you.

My curiosity leads me to try to understand what is being offered in that place.
I know that the practices are rooted deep in history and culture, and I want to be a part of that.

Much more, but I don't feel up to the psychoanalysis necessary for expressing the whole at this time.

In my experience with my own children as well as others,

children don't and can't understand the nuances of concepts of religion, theology, spirituality.

Children in religious families are usually dogmatic in what they understand, as when, for example, they tell another child he'll "go to hell" if he doesn't _______ (fill in the blank).

Religious ceremonies are not constructed for a child's mind and no one should be surprised that they are bored or restless when brought to such services.

$3.28+ at Kroger in SW Ohio. Other outlets may be a little more.

Huge drop in just the last 3 weeks.

When does the DU contingent leave for the warfront?

Any warfront?
Take your pick.

Bought gas at under $3.00/gallon today! It's been a long time

since I paid so little for a fill-up.

Have to admit I used a bonus $.30/gallon from Kroger shopping . This is in Ohio.
The price without bonus was $3.28+, and I hadn't seen even that low for I don't know how long.
My Kroger bonus came from double bonus points they give for weekend shopping, otherwise I don't rack up that many points in a month.

Yes, it does feel good, though realistically, the savings is no big deal and I blow that amount on mindless purchases regularly.
Old habits of frugality are hard to lose.

Are you aware that a film about Miles Davis is being made

as we speak?
Much of the filming was done in Cincinnati in the last few weeks.
As I recall, it will not be a full-fledged biography, but a film that depicts a slice of his life.
I don't recall the details, but perhaps Google will tell you more.

I was a fan of Miles Davis back to the mid-1950's. - Loved "Blue Again."
Think I'll pull it up on Youtube.
Thanks
