Chasing pavements...

itsmechelle @itsmechelle (114) 31 Jul 12

I so adore Adele and all of her songs. One of my favorite among of her songs is "Chasing Pavements", but I HONESTLY don't really understand this line of her; "or should I just keep chasing pavements." Could you please explain to...

missliss08 I don't think I have heard this song yet, but I can assume it might mean that should she continue to fall hard towards the ground. Is this possible? I do love Adele. She has such a unique voice quality. I think my favorite is Rumor Has It.

missliss08 You will see a hematology doctor that is an expert in blood disorders. IV Iron, is treated like getting blood and your iron must be pretty low if they are considering this. This is just a thought, and I am only asking, have you tried taking an iron supplement...

missliss08 I don't think money in its general self is the root of all evil. But what money does to people, to get it, make more and keep it is the root of all evil.

Spare the rod and spoil the child...

Spare the rod and spoil the child, what does this mean. It is a common phrase coined to describe that when you choose not physically discipline your child you are actually spoiling him. Nowadays with corporal punishments being...

missliss08 I think as a last result, for a child who has been repeatedly punished for the same behavior with other methods, then a spanking might be suitable to do. For me personally, I believe hitting any child with an object, other than a swat with your hand on the...

missliss08 We have a rabbit and it gets very hot here in Florida. Since he does not want to come in the house, we have dogs, and he just freaks out. I am afraid he will have a heart attack. So he has an enclosed room off the garage. We run the ceiling fan at all times in...

Correcting Dogs Potty Behavior

WumpyPPancakes @WumpyPPancakes (117) • United States 9 Jul 12

I have two dogs who have in a very bad habit of marking spots in our house out of spite. The only way that we've been able to control this problem is to put up a baby gate and lock them into the kitchen each time that they do...

potty behavior

missliss08 I am afraid it is not out of spite, but because their scent is still there and they will continue to return to that spot until the scent is gone. I have used diluted bleach, but there are products on the market that will help get rid of the scent. You probably...

Losing weight can be easy too

GoldenSatin @GoldenSatin (37) • Singapore 9 Jul 12

A wriggle of your legs. A excercise of your own. A twist of the body in anyway lets you sweat too. Listen to the music. On the music and helps you dance. Pick any radio station and rocks your way out. Sweating starts! Believe...

missliss08 I have been walking three times a week, since last Fall, and have lost twenty five pounds. However, activity alone is not enough. I have had to change my diet and eating habits as well.

E-Readers Versus Printed Books

WumpyPPancakes @WumpyPPancakes (117) • United States 9 Jul 12

For awhile, I was absolutely against owning an E-reader. I've been collecting printed books since I was a middle schooler. So, the idea of owning an E-reader, for me, would be supporting the decline of print books being made....
