Lynn's Comments: This thumb sucking appliance is a small metal wire contraption that is glued into a child's mouth. This tiny appliance has tiny prongs on it which makes sucking uncomfortable and (hopefully) breaks the habit. Too bad there isn't something similar for smoking!

Lynn's Comments: This is a real problem. After living and working with a dentist, I could tell from a child's dentition if he or she had been sucking their thumb for too long. I knew about these appliances to stop the habit...they were unpleasant, but they worked!

Lynn's Comments: I sucked my thumb until I was about seven. I still remember the taste...not bad and calorie free!

Lynn's Comments: The garbage dump in Lynn Lake, Manitoba was called, "The Exchange." Folks were leaving town on a regular basis and often the dump was a treasure trove of unwanted but really good stuff. I do remember getting all excited about a trip to the "nuisance grounds." Sometimes I brought home more than I threw away.

Lynn's Comments: I loved coming up with the name Boston Original so I could use B.O. on all the clothes.

Lynn's Comments: I do this. It's not as effective as actually dusting, but it gives me another week to procrastinate.

Lynn's Comments: In a situation like this, I'd find a way to have half an hour to myself so I could stand in a hot shower and pray for relief. This is the one time when a "let down" is a very positive thing!

Lynn's Comments: No wonder I was thin when I was a young mother!
