Is money really that important to authors?

Just wondering. If you wrote a book that was really good, that was worth popularity but not that many people were buying new copy books from major book chains like barnes and nobles, borders, etc. They just bought books from used book stores and borrowed from libraries would you be ok with that? Even if your book became really popular but you recieved little money from it would you be ok with the fact that people would read your work for free?

What types of showers are the easiest to keep clean?

I like a clean bathroom, however the shower I have now has a lot of nooks and crannies for mildew to grow. I try and clean it twice a week and spray it with an anti mildew formula but to little success. It is a rounded stall shower with a swivel door and the entire thing is fiberglass, and aluminum. What works best for a new shower?

I cant catch this mouse! Help?!

Ughh theres this really small rascal in my kitchen, I have no Idea how he even got there in the first place and I cant seem to find where on earth hes hiding since Ive put those Sticky things in every nook and cranny. I managed to catch him the other day but when I turned my back on him he was gone! Its reaaally annoying because at night I can hear him in the kitchen but I dont know how to catch him! I tried to put the traps again but he wouldnt fall for it twice. I dont wanna try any other traps since I dont want him to die in some hidden place and start smelling etc.
Added (1). Tear gas clearly wont work,I havent seen the mouse since his great escape, I want more practical traps, no cages whatsoever because I wouldnt wanna spend alot for 1 mouse. If I put peanut butter or anything in my cupboards not only will it be infested with mice and ants but all my cutlery would too:(

How to get my baby back to sleep at night?

Our son is 4 months & wakes up once to feed overnight. I'm fine with waking up yet, I'm not expecting him to sleep through the night until his stomach is big enough, but when he wakes up at night, he's often up for over an hour before he'll go back to sleep.

We keep the lights out-only using night lights to change & etc, we keep things calm-to make sure he knows it's not time to play, we've tried rocking & tried just putting him back in his crib-neither seem to move the process along faster. He just never wants to go back to sleep.

He used to rock for a while, take his nook, & slowly fall back asleep within an hour, but it's gotten longer & longer to get him to go back to sleep & harder & harder, as he just squirms & cries as we try & rock him.& usually wants nothing to do with his nook anymore.

He usually wakes around 3 (having gone to bed between 7:30 & 8:30), but sometimes he'll wake at 2 & once in a while at 4, but no matter the time, it's always a long, tiring process to get him to go back to sleep. Any tips?

Do books cost less on the Nook?

I might buy Nook but what are the advantages? I normally order paper back from Amazon, usually 7-$14. Nook is just an online reader, so do books only cost like $1 like with iTunes?

Do you pay tax if you purchase a Barnes and Nobles gift card at the store?

I found out that a textbook I need is cheaper, even with tax (plus free shipping!), on the Barnes and Nobles website, and I want to get started for next semester. Now, I need a gift card. If I get one, for the right amount, do I have to pay tax for the card as well? Most gift cards I've gotten usually don't get charged tax, but I don't know in this case.

I'm going to a Barnes and Nobles store to buy it, if that's any help. (Textbook isn't available at that store.)

Need room set up suggestions for kids' rooms due to cramped spaces and constant fighting?

So, here is the deal. It's me, two boys, and a girl. The boys currently share (roughly) a 9' x 9' room and due to the rooms layout, are quite cramped. Bunk beds are not an option (have tried in the past but it didn't work out). My daughter has a smaller room, 8' x 9', and I have the so-called master room, 10' x 13'. The boys have both shared a room on and off throughout their 9 and 11 year old lives. They are quite close, get along fairly well, but most of their fighting over the past six months seems to stem from sharing such a small room. We recently moved, and their current room is so small there isn't even room for a dresser. Sure, we have the whole plastic, stackable baskets, closet organizer thingy, etc. It's just not the same these days, unlike when they were 3 and 5, or 5 and 7, fitting into smaller quarters. My daughter is only 5, and is actually scared of her room. Doesn't even like to sleep in it much, finding her way out to the couch or the floor in my room next to the faithful dog, or my bed.

I am debating on what to do with the room situation. I personally could care less about a big room for myself, as I merely just go in it to sleep. I know a 'room' has a completely different meaning for a child, thus, I am thinking of changing things around. One option being giving both the boys their own rooms, and moving my daughter into the larger room with me. Either by putting her bed in the space OR creating a bed nook out of the closet. Neither she, nor myself has a lot of clothing/dresses, and we could share a large dresser. I'm thinking it would be good for the boys to have their own space at this point OR, give them the larger room to share, keeping my daughter's room intact, and then I would take the boys' room.

On a side note, I have tried many methods to keep the peace in my home. The 'suck it up' method, etc. I am not a coddling mom, but do nurture my children. Anyhow, just curious what others might do in a similar situation. I know kids/siblings will fight, even if you give them an entire wing in a mansion, however, I'm thinking if my boys had their own rooms this might be best. A larger space may not be the answer. We can always look into moving in a few years to a more suitable sized home. Thanks.
