accents I've always been a knuckle cracker myself. It does make me cringe a little when other people crack something, especially turning their head until their neck cracks. My husband has to crack everything before he falls asleep and seems to time it to be right when...

accents I usually eat something too, or avoid eating. The healthier thing I do would be taking a walk, reading a book, taking a bath, calling a friend.

I'm looking for people who are serious about making some extra money. There is this new website that I signed up with just yesterday and right now they are in the pre-launch stage. They promise that everyone will be able to make...

accents I'd be interested in hearing more about it, but can't figure out how to contact you. Maybe because I'm not on your friends list? I'm on dcroome2005's list though, so maybe she could pass the info on to me? Or you could contact me directly, of course. Thanks!

Back in April, my doctor put me on medicine to help me with my PCOS ( polycystic ovarian syndrome). I took it for a month. Friday I called to refill my medicine. Yesterday I picked them all up. Today I went to take my medicine and...

accents Which set of meds was wrong? The first or the second? That is a very serious mistake they made, and you should look into how they're going to rectify it especially if it's the one you already took! Did they know what they gave you or give you any information...

I am very interested in trying to make soap and candles. A friend of mine here on mylot posted some interesting discussions about some recipes. I am new to this: for now I know that I need to buy mold and soap base as well as some...

accents I love making candles and have made a little soap in the past. If you're just making it for yourself, some of the craft store stuff might be okay, but I highly recommend some of the online suppliers out there. They have some great soap bases and more scents...

Jshean20 @Jshean20 (14347) • Canada 30 May 07

Anne of Green Gables is an amazing series and I have really enjoyed watching the movies. So far I have seen "Anne of Green Gables", "Anne of Green Gables- The Sequal" and tonight I will be watching the continuing story. I think...

accents Oh, I love this too! I don't know how many times I've seen it or read the books. I'd have to say Gilbert is my favorite character. He's so devoted to Anne even when she doesn't want anything other than friendship. But I also like Anne and Matthew Cuthbert and...

accents If you're concerned, call your doctor's office and just talk it over with a nurse. After having my daughter (and other pregnancies that didn't work out), my cycles have been odd. The first ones seemed normal and then they changed. Pregnancy changes things and...

To Treat or Not to Treat

jillmalitz @jillmalitz (5131) • United States 30 May 07

If you had online friend whom you have never met would you invite them to visit you or take them to dinner if they came to your town, especially if you were on a very tight paycheck to paycheck budget?

accents I would certainly want to get together and meet an online friend if they were in my area. You could always meet for lunch rather than dinner, and it wouldn't need to be an expensive place. Take them to your home for a meal and a visit or even make a picnic and...

accents Sounds nice and easy! Thanks for sharing! It's always good to have more ways to encourage children (and myself) to eat healthier and dips definitely make it a little more fun.

accents I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. Ours stopped eating and losing weight before he died too. He had other problems, though. I don't have any recipes for you, but maybe a little tuna that comes in oil? You might want to ask your vet for ideas. I don't think...

Punishing a child over something stupid

seabeauty @seabeauty (1480) • United States 30 May 07

Do you feel it ok to scold a child in front of his/her freinds and punish him/her over something totally stupid? My husband did just that. We bought a water slide for the kids and my husband was scolding my son for not wanting...

2 responses

accents Well, it probably wasn't the right choice. Dads don't always understand kids very well. I'm sure he was disappointed that your son wasn't as excited about the slide as he was. Talk to your husband about what happened and how it made your son look to his...

Abbypia @Abbyey (760) • Philippines 30 May 07

accents I like receiving gifts. I like them to have a little thought behind them, too. I'd love it if my husband would take our daughter shopping to pick something out for me. He doesn't even have her get me a card or make me one, but I'm always having her do stuff...

accents Yes! Drives me nuts! If you have an answer for what I'm discussing, fine, but wait for a break in the conversation. And I wish these people would have something to back up their points instead of just saying "well, such and such isn't good for you". Ugh!

arsena @arsena (293) • Germany 29 May 07

accents I'm fairly certain I could get a job should it become necessary. If my husband needs to look for a job, it's a lot harder for him. And since we rely on his income, that worries me. I hope I don't have to go to work because I enjoy taking care of our daughter,...

accents I've mystery shopped once and am signed up with a few companies. It's tricky finding something that's worth it. The one I did sent back my report and made me rewrite it for a few little things. I'm not sure it's worth the hassle. I've also done merchandising...
