It is very sad to think about and talk about but sometimes you may know someone who has been told they don't have long to live. Once the person is at the very bad invalid stage that they can't get about and do things, how can...

vegegirl Thanks HearRob I spent a lot of time today with him and I took some old movies into his room for his visitors to put on and watch with him. He was resting peacefully when I left. If any problems happen during the night I will be called, but he seems stable...

vegegirl Thanks ronadelle yes it is a very heavy discussion, one I avoid too much myself, even though it has been at the back of my mind for a while. I am surprised how many people have been able to give useful advice and touching comments. Yes I will have to...

vegegirl That must be why a lot of parents still look young - because they are busy having fun with their children when they finish all their hard work. You sound like a very good parent!

vegegirl Thankyou for your lovely comments. Unfortunately I do see that I made a few typos so I hope this didn't make it a little hard to understand. The idea about chopping things up for your smoothy was to do it the night before, but just process it up in the...

vegegirl I've had olive oil in my hair most of the day, it doesn't really seem to make the knot come out yet.. Do you think I can wash it out with the knot in it. A friend of mine said she got her boyfriends dreadlocks out with lots of conditioner, a fine tooth comb...

Do you keep all your books? Do you sell them, or do you give them away? I have stored up a lot of my books for years, but am running out of space plus we live in a very dusty area so they gather dust. Previously i have given some...

vegegirl Yes, I do what you do, but I have a lot of crime books and my sisters aren't really into these type of books. My friends that would read these type of books now have e-readers, that is why I have started to think of selling them. I am thinking of putting an...

vegegirl Thanks bounce, I am applying for jobs, and I don't really want to go to a lot of them all week, but I am applying for them anyway. Unfortunately I haven't been successful in any of them.

vegegirl that's very nice of you, I have bought lots of books from Op shops, which are probably what we call charity shops in our country.

My eldest daughter wanted a guitar for a very long time but I have no extra money to buy it. Luckily her auntie gave her money which could be a good start to have the guitar. We canvassed for the guitar and found out that she...

vegegirl Yes, any of those types of classes will surely be a help, and as you said she will also be able to find her way on youtube and she can read your materials. I know there are lots of books about learning the guitar like "the complete guitar player".

How long do you leave your discussion topic go before you chose a best response? Do you wait for a certain number of days, weeks or months? Or do you wait for a certain number of responses before chosing one?

vegegirl That sounds a good way, as long as you use the recommended 1 week before deciding. Sometimes it can be hard to chose though as there can often be more than one person offering lots of information. Sometimes, if a few people give me the same good respons, I may...

I just watched a foreign language movie that was quite strange, sad and thought provoking. There was a young woman working in Gucci, she had a nice boyfriend and lived somewhere nice with her mum. There was an older man who's...

vegegirl I'm not sure of the swedish name, it was on tv and I just saw that if was called Darling, and I thought I had heard of it. Yes it's good, although strange and I think it was deep. It starts off seeming shallow but the more you watch it the deeper I think it...

I have seen shows on how serious lack of sleep can be for your health. I think experts have reccommended 7-8 hours a night. Apparently you can't really catch up on your sleep debt, but the longer you go without sleeping enough,...

vegegirl Yes, I think for the last couple of nights I haven't been sleeping enough. Today I went swimming and then I felt very tired afterward. I think the exercise is helping my body catch up on it's sleep and tonight I should sleep soundly.

vegegirl Thankyou I hope it can help get this big knot out of the back of my hair that conditionor couldn't fix. It is a bit like one dreadlock in the back of my hair but it is going across the bottom of my hair instead of down.

vegegirl Thanks. Yes I will have to get a friend to untangle this time because it is in the back of my hair. I really don't want to cut that much off my hair.
