Rachel D Wentz @camomom (7535) • United States 10 Oct 08

My 3 month old was sleeping lastnight when I went to bed. She was making all kinds of noises, grunting and groning. She kept her eyes closed the entire time but her bottom lip kept getting bigger and her top lip just disapeared,...

Bobbysox I am sure that babies dream,as do animals,my alsatian dog often twitches and grunts and groans ,he is away with the fairies enjoying his dreams,but how and why and what they dream remains a mystery.I am sure that there is an expert in childcare/childhood that...

Is myLot loading slowly at your area?

sdas86 @sdas86 (6076) • Malaysia 11 Oct 08

Hi, I am experiencing very slow loading speed in myLot. It is really slow. I think that there are a lot of mylotters actively participate in myLot. That is why myLot is loading very slowly. Any mylotters have the same problem?...

I have to become delinquent before you can help me?!?

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 10 Oct 08

Since money is ultra tight this month and I would rather have services disconnected than not be able to pay my rent on the first, I sat down this afternoon and started calling places that we owe money to in order to find out if...

Why is my kid so skinny?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 9 Oct 08

My daughter could finish a whole medium cheese pizza by herself, (if I would let her). But she's still a stick thin string bean. What's up with that? The kid eats and eats, but never gains weight. She eats breakfast,...

Bobbysox Aww maybe just the way she is made,but I know it sometimes can cause worry if you see that a child is eating her socks off and then gaining no weight.Maybe she does a lot of exercise and burns the calories off very quickly.Kids in my family differ ,some are...

Bobbysox I reckon that all you can eat buffets are a good way of dining out,and have never experienced any problem with other diners.But then ive never worked in one.The thory is that you eat as much as you want for a set price,and thats a good concept,as long as its...

Bobbysox You are so right there,all of us seem to think that we are pretty much indipensible,the world turns around us,the world cant survive without us.We are for the most part driven by power and greed,and in that quest we fail to stop and take note of the smaller...

Where has all the milk of human kindness gone?

zandi458 @zandi458 (28102) • Malaysia 9 Oct 08

What comes to my mind, and in truth what has been on my mind for quite a long time is this question of class and class distinction. The question of classes in public transport was emphasized even more than before. In planes, first...

Bobbysox The milk of human kindness is still out there,but you have to look a little harder to find it,which is pretty sad really.There are so many people that are solely out for themselves these days,they have no interest in anyone else at all.We are pretty lucky...

Do you wear reading glasses? At what age did you need to wear them?

Rocketj1 @rocketj1 (6955) • United States 8 Oct 08

So far, so good. I have not needed to get glasses yet (at age 44). I don't even need reading glasses so far. I am anticipating them soon however as many of my friends have ended up with them at this age. How about you?

Bobbysox No worries wearing glasses here at all,I have worn them for years,some of the designer frames that you get at the opticians now are fab,so bang up to date and in vogue.I realise that its an expensive day when you visit the optician,get the eye test and then...

Will you take the call or not?

dolce_vita78 @dolce_vita78 (8062) • Philippines 24 Sep 08

I put my two mobile phones on my headboard each time I go to bed. That way, the phones are very accessible. At the same time, when the alarm of each phone goes off, it will be easier for me to turn them off. I do keep my phone at...

Bobbysox No telephone upstairs here,but if I heard the phone ringing in the middle of the night then I would most definately go and check who was calling,it would be very odd for us to get any type of call in the night,so it would make me really wonder who it was.But...

Buy local or organic?

kieungoc @kieungoc (232) • United States 6 Apr 08

Yes, this is a question my husband and I ponder over. I want my kids to get organic foods, but my husband prefers local. If it's local, then less time one the road therefore less gas and less pollution. Sometimes local items...
