Thank you so very much. I'm taking both ideas and incorporating them into one. I'll make the box, attach the pedestal, but, also include the drawers under the box. You guys are brilliant!!! Cheers.

Yes, a base plate is a flat board made for LEGO. What I need is to be able to turn the table over so he can play in the evenings. That would also keep his LEGO off the floor and permanently attached to the plate on the underside of the table when we require the other side. I'm not sure if I'm...

I have thought of an idea for the table in my C class and need help to figure out how to make it happen. I would like to install Lego Base Plates on the underside of my table for my son. When the table is not being used for meals I would like to turn it so that the underside with the base...

Too cool. Thanks for sharing! Cheers.

John41CT, quote: "...getting legal..." end quote. That is it exactly. I'm not sure about placing my son in the passenger seat in his chair. I would have to disable the passenger air bag which in turn could complicate my insurance. So many things to check into before we head out.

Quote: John61CT "Travelling with kiddies I pay more attention than most but. . . " end quote. This is the dilemma I'm having at the moment. In a C class, I'm trying to figure out how to keep my son in a child's car seat that can be bolted down like it is in my car. Stupidly I watched accidents...

akrvbob, quote: "...be aware that in many small towns most stores won't take either a debit or credit card for a small amount,..." end quote. Thank you for that information. I wouldn't have thought that there would be places that don't take a debit card or credit card. It would appear I will...

Almost There, quote: "I use the term charge card and credit card interchangeably. Perhaps it's a Canadian thing..." end quote Definitely a Canadian thing. Even retailers here say charge card. LOL I'll have to get used to saying only credit card from now on. Cheers.

todheil, I couldn't agree more...and the number one question? "will I find my soul mate, where, and when?" Sheesh people are silly - 1 question means one. I love the art of the tarot decks, the symbolism, and the artists point of view for each card. I've been thinking and stressing about...

I am Canadian. In daily life we don't use cash, instead we use our debit cards. Because I will be making my way to Arizona for 6 months less a day at the end of October, is the debit card used as abundantly in the USA as we use it in Canada? Will I be okay not taking any cash (if I do it would...

Further to Kathleen's post, if you've been violated, it changes who you are. If it happened throughout your childhood, that once sweet little girl who only ever wanted to please is changed for ever more. Your very core essence changes. It matters not about the counseling, it can never return...

Queen, quote "...or worse yet, having them explain my experience to me..." end quote. This is the best description of man-splaining I've ever seen. Cheers.

tx2sturgis, quote "...I am guilty of wolf-whistles occasionally (more so in my exuberant youth), 'locker room banter', staring as a woman walks away, (nice!) and enjoying the smell of her delightful perfume as she passes. So yeah, I'm very sexist, but not in a negative way, at least in my mind...

XFile36, quote "protecting your son from men, there are female sex abusers too..." I am aware of this thank you and I shouldn't have just stated men; my apologies. I think I need to clarify that what I mean by protecting my son is that A) I won't let my son go off alone with someone; B)...

Putts, quote "Some women are unusually authoritative and warrior-like..." In our home we call it being assertive. LOL I enjoyed your comment.

tx2sturgis, quoting you " in a 'mans' world". Having raised one boy to adulthood and now raising another, please explain to me this 'mans' world' of which you speak. My son's are sensitive, caring, empathetic, strong, expressive, sharing, etc. What part of the 'mans world' did I miss? My adult...

I raised three children (one boy and two girls) to adulthood being ever vigilant with their safety. I did this because I was violated multiple times by various men around my family of origin. I have always been on hyper alert to any nuance around my children. Now the three are grown and I have a...

Thank you for the responses. Much appreciated. As I'm coming from Canada, I've registered homeschooling with our Province. I'll do the 'snowbird thing' of 6 months less a day of wintering in Arizona and back to Canada for the spring and summer. Our liaison for schooling is aware and fine with...
