  • Can i still claim it?

    Okay here's the deal, my son goes to a private preschool through our local parochial school, we pay his tuition through the schools tuition program (FACTS) We were under the impression that it was considered school tuition, not day care, since we didn't get any papers through the school for tax purposes. so when we filed our taxes we didn't include his schooling as tax deductible, well come to find out it is considered day care not school. We have already filed, received and spent our tax refund.

    My question is this: Is it to late to do anything about it? and if it is not to late how do i go about it?

    thanks in advance:@)

  • Do i need to uninstall Windows Defender first?

    i got the CA anti-virus through CenturyTel, and the email to activate says to uninstall existing anti-virus or firewall software before installing the CA anti-virus, my question is this...Do i need to uninstall my Windows defender?

    I'm not very computer savvy so i'm not even sure it IS anti-virus software, it came with the computer as far as i know, either that or my teenage daughter installed it shortly after we got the computer 2 years ago. thanks in advance:@)

  • Best way to make a Paper Mache flower pot?

    Ok my 3 year old daughter wants to be a flower for Halloween, i have finished making the clothes of the costume, green sweatpants and green sweatshirt with leaves hanging off, and the flower petal hoodie, but now i need to make the Paper Mache flower pot, that will hang from her shoulders with suspenders. how thick do i need to make it (how many layers) so it will stand up to a three year old wearing it all night but not make it to heavy that she won't be able to carry it.

    I will need to make it 18" across my 12" high. keep in mind i haven't done paper mache since grade school. any advice would be much appreciated.

    how many layers and what kind of form can i use? all we did in school was cover a ballon and then pop the ballon, can i use a real pot and then slide the paper mache off once it has dried?
