On this Thanksgiving day, I have a lot to be thankful for. In the midst of a recession, my husband and I are both still working. My son is healthy and didn't contract H1N1 (probably because I Lysol and Clorox him twice a day) this cold and flu season. My family is all doing well, both parents still living and still working and still crazy as hell. Cars are paid off (Hallelujah) and haven't left us...
Tom Lydon (ETF Trends) submits: Despite an impressive market rally that has major indexes up around 65% off the March 9 lows, there are still a number of blue-chip stocks delivering handsome dividend yields.

We have the flu and so we've had to cancel our Thanksgiving plans. The turkey has been put back in the freezer and I'm trying not to be so down about it. Still, there is much to be thankful for. This year I am thankful for a husband who will clean up vomit, for humidifiers and children's Motrin. I am thankful for homemade chicken soup, this thermometer , flannel pajamas, gingerale and rainy days that...

Michael Johnston submits: As investors have regained their appetite for risk, cash has flowed into domestic and international equities, rewarding the “bargain hunters” who snapped up equities near the market bottom when pricing multiples and dividend yields were severely depressed. While these “too good to be true” investments are now much less abundant, they haven’t...

My disdain for housecleaning has been well-documented, so it's a little odd that my daughter loves to clean as much as she does. But give that girl a Clorox wipe, and she is one happy camper. Given her gotta-get-it-clean-Mommy tendencies, I haven't been surprised to see how much she loves brushing her teeth. But what has [...]

My latest column for MilwaukeeMoms.com is available here. “From latch key kids to helicopter parents” : But I still see a lot of parents out there who insist on hosing their kids down with Clorox every time they touch the handle of the shopping cart or use the swings at the local park. I have a feeling the mother I received the scowl from this morning fits into that camp and buys Purell...
