If your children have T-shirts that they have outgrown or do not want to wear anymore, don’t toss them out.
They offer memories of fun times that your family has had, whether they’re from a trip, a sports event or even a concert. Here’s how to repurpose them:
Have your children spread them all out, then take out the T-shirts they do not want. Those can be used as cleaning rags. Then, with the remaining shirts, have them select which logos or designs they like the most. You can cut out these designs into squares and sew them together to make a fun T-shirt memory quilt. -- HeloiseI’m 80 years old, and I just got my first computer. I always thought I was too old to learn how they work, but I bought one and took classes. Now I can communicate with anyone anywhere in the world!

I’m living proof that you’re never too old to learn something new. -- H.G., in MichiganKeep a roll of duct tape in the trunk of your car.

Fasten a large safety pin sideways onto the top of a baseball cap. Run the tubing back to front through the safety pin, then let the tubing drape down the sides of the bill and into your nose. What relief! It is comfortable and easily adjustable. -- N.I., in CaliforniaBalloons can be dangerous to pets.
