oztoo3 I still don't agree. Everyone has their own problems. People who are beautiful often don't think they are beautiful. OK money makes life easier in many ways but people who have it still aren't happy. They want more money or they're afraid of losing what...

oztoo3 Actually, and suprising as it seems, the answer is no. To us ordinary folk, all we want is to have looks and money - right. But if you look at all those rich and beautiful people you find that many are not happy. They often don't believe they're attractive or...

oztoo3 Fall recipes- just completed an assignment on that subject. How about good old pumpkin soup. Make it in the crockpot and dinner's ready when you get home. Then there's pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting. Don't forget all those delicious apples at this...

For me drinking is a typical solution to a problem that most people rely on when they felt too much pain. I know that it's not a better nor good solution to any problem. But sometimes when you're helpless and despair you tend to...

oztoo3 Drinking never solves anything. The problem will still be there when you sober up and even worse you feel bad from the alcohol. Drinking may be a way of temporarily forgetting your problems but in the long run it does you no good. Don't forget it's damaging...

oztoo3 I hug family members and friends. But some people are uncomfortable about hugging. I guess some people don't like others stepping inside their"space". It makes them uncomfortable. I read somewhere that you should get 8 hugs a day to maintain positive...

It is very alarming nowadays that married couple ends up breaking up and go separate ways. You can compare it on a pair of clothes that when you don't want it then throw it away. The matrimony of marriage is not being observed...

oztoo3 Expectations in marriage is one thing. The other thing is the expectations we have of other people. Sometimes we expect things from our partners. If they don't meet our expectations we may not be happy. Our perception often is that we should live happily ever...

oztoo3 Certainly age is a factor. When you are young you are still discovering yourself and its all about you. This is hard in a relationship when both people can be putting their own wants first. Also we live in a disposable society and ,like everything else we...

oztoo3 Actually I think most kids do that. My little house was under the dining room table. My neighbours kids played under their dad's boat. They were pretty upset when he sold it. Sometimes kids like the simple things they can create themselves rather than all the...

oztoo3 I agree with everyone else. I would not kick my daughter out. It would be very hard for the mother to have to go along with the fathers decision to disown their daughter. I don't believe I could do it. Even if it meant breaking up my marriage. So it sounds...

oztoo3 You didn't say how recently you became a mother. If it was only recently you should find it will pass. Just hormones and your body getting back to normal. I do think that when you become a mother, especially first time round, you see the world a little...

oztoo3 Although there are a few kids who may have medical problems most of them simply lack discipline. Kids need to be taught from an early age to understand what is acceptable behaviour and what is not. The problem is compounded by the fact that many parents are...

oztoo3 Actually lipstick can be harmful. Some lipsticks contain lead, which is definately BAD. The government does not control much about what goes into beauty products and frankly they are full of nasty chemicals. Just because you can buy it in the store does not...

When you shop for any item at the store, usually the label or the box tells you where the item made. It could be any countries in the world, Made in China, made in USA, made in Japan, etc, etc. I just wonder if it does matter to...

oztoo3 That's a good point. If your serious about buying home made you have to check the labels. Also sometimes things that you believe are USA companies are often owned by foreign companies, like Japan or something. Guess sometimes its hard to know what your really...

oztoo3 If I really want it then no it doesn't really matter. Having said that however, I do like to buy locally made stuff because it keeps someone in this country in a job. And we all need that don't we? I guess it just depends what it is I am buying.
