Last Sunday my peace of mind is disturbed because one of my students in tutorial wants to stop just because I failed to tutor him this Sunday. The whole day Monday I don't feel well because I feel depress with that issue....

MerryBelle @averygirl72 I hope you can put up the sign soon on both sides of the door. That way, you can see it and remember every day.

MerryBelle It's understandable to get down or distracted when we're busy or upset, so my suggestion would be to put a reminder on the door, inside and outside, so you always remember to lock your store and prevent losing any valuable.

I didn't even know what that meant. But apparently, in the US, Walmart wanted "to create a less stimulating environment for those with sensory disabilities." This means they "changed the TV walls to a static image, turned off...

MerryBelle Yeah. If regular folks like me can get distracted/annoyed by them, what more those who are hypersensitive/hyperaware/hyperstimulated by them?

I was up like all night so I didn't wake up until about 1 pm. I didn't have anything in particular to do so it didn't matter. I finished sorting through pictures for my dad's visitation and then forced myself to drive over to my...

MerryBelle Your body took over because you badly needed the rest and when you woke up, all the people who you could share and understood what you're going through were available. Just curious, are your estranged aunts and uncles allowed to attend the your dad's...

Before the end of June this year, the concern brought people into a debate about where to put the ketchup in the fridge or cupboard. That makes citizens on social media separated by their opinions. To stop the issue, Kraft Heinz...

MerryBelle @Shavkat I agree. During the rainy season, like now, and during the colder months (Dec to Feb), I don't worry about leaving even food on the kitchen table because I know it won't spoil immediately.

In our current living situation, my husband and I will have to share a home office space. I will end up using it more, unless of course I was scheduled to travel for work on a week. During his rest days, he is more likely to use...

MerryBelle my suggestions would be 1. set up your workspace where it's quietest, while his is nearer the door. or you can also put up some sort of folding or removal dividers. 2. for the ongoing meetings and conference calls, it would help to add estimated start and...

4 years ago today my divorce was finalized. I can't believe it has been so long. It was not my choice but the whole process went as amicably and smoothly as possible. No one screwed the other over either during our marriage or...

MerryBelle In the fridge only because ketchup is better cold than room temp. Still, I don't think it would spoil if left on the table compared to other processed foods. How about you? Where do you keep your ketchup?

Prior to starting my (not very) new job last Monday I had been freelancing for the company for over 2 years. During this time I worked totally from home, never once setting foot in the company offices which are some 120 miles from...

MerryBelle I've always been mistaken for my mother since age 13 when I answer the landline. For me, a short/average height person with a big voice is just as startling as a big/tall person with a small/high-pitched voice.

MerryBelle There's a heavy emphasis on appearance in customer-facing jobs, but the truth is, you can look good, but not really a people person or problem solver. I used to think flight attendants need to be a certain height to help with overhead bags, but turns out,...

MerryBelle True. I remember ads where females should be at least 5'2", males 5'6". I thought times have changed and we've become more inclusive, but apparently not.

It's nice to hear an old song, especially when it's the easy listening kind - not too fast, not too slow - so non-singers like me can sing along to it. Sweet Baby is a song by Stanley Clarke and George Duke...

MerryBelle Good to know you know it, too. Some songs, singers, bands from other countries become big hits here, but not where they're from.
