Melitta We have BCBS CA, it is now Anthem. Ours is a $20 copay with a $150 deductible up to 3 people. Meaning, we have 5 people on our insurance, but only 3 of them have to meet the $150 deductible. When we go to the doctor we pay our $20 copay upfront, then when we...

I developed an interest in antiques after writing around 50 articles on antique furniture for a client. After completing the fiftieth article and breathing a sigh of relief, I wondered about my own house. "Which is the oldest...

Melitta I guess I should consider us lucky. Our hospitals are clean and neat. We even have a new one right down the road that is one of the most beautiful hospitals I have ever seen. Not that I have been in a lot, but this one is beautiful. Doesn't even look like a...

Melitta First off, if it is a guard dog, then it is not a family pet. They are not meant to be played with. Just like a dog used for hunting, you don't play with them either. Second, if it is a Chow breed, they are very territorial animals and will protect the family...

Melitta I agree. Talk with the Dad about having the kid come over to your house each afternoon and help with the dog until he is better. A police report will do nothing for this kid except maybe make him shy away from owning up too what he has done in the future. Kids...

Hydrogen Peroxide is very cheap. You can get that plain little old bottle of 3% peroxide for under $1.00 at any drug store. My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, and most doctors don't tell you about...

Melitta Mix the peroxide with a 50/50 or 60/40 solution of your favorite, or just a cheap mouthwash. Makes the taste of peroxide a little easier to handle and you still get the benefits of the whitening. Another thing you can do is mix baking soda, peroxide and...

Melitta I am my husband's second wife. First marriage for me. We have been together for 18 years. I dealt with my husbands ex for many years. For her, it wasn't that she wanted him back, but that she didn't want anyone else to have him so that he would be at her beck...

How many people remember your birthday and remember to call or send you a gift...even if it is belated?Now that I'm 30, I find only parents, sister and son remember my birthday. What about you?

Melitta I told my husband, who remembers EVERY birthday and anniversary, not to say a word about my birthday this year. The day came and went very quietly with only my immediate family wishing me well. That is exactly how I wanted it. That day only reminds me that I...

Melitta My cycles during my teen years were similar to what you are having. They couldn't explain why I was in so much pain or bleeding so heavily either. Being put on the pill took care of it. I had the Ablation done 9 months ago and have been very happy with...

Melitta Just a question, if as parents we don't have the authority of piercing our children's ears, then how do we have the authority to tell them they have to wait until they are in their teens? I have not known one person who has been tramatized just from having...

Melitta I was initially worried about her playing with her ears or pulling on the earrings, but she never did. Honestly, the only way she will rip out an earring is if it gets caught on her clothes or something of that nature. I really don't think she will pull the...
