I’ve been responding to some of the discussions here for hours now and I’ve noticed that I haven’t received any comments yet. I’ve been checking my mails and I somehow felt frustrated. Do you also feel the same if nobody replies...

Canellita Maybe people are just too stunned by the latest news. A lot of people who are dependent on their activity are now going to have to come up with something else. I imagine there will be a lot less responses from now on.

to delete or not to delete?

annavi23 @annavi23 (6522) • Philippines 30 Apr 13

How do you manage your message inbox in your email addresses and in your cellphones? DO you have the feeling of saving it for a year or so? What is your reason then why are you saving such messages? Sometimes, it's hard to...

Canellita I don't worry about email messages. I read them online and they are there until they aren't anymore. I'm really not sure how long they stay online before they get deleted, but I occasionally need to go back through them to look for some old information so I am...

Do you need license for a childcare business at home?

scheng1 @scheng1 (24649) • Singapore 31 Mar 13

If you want to start a childcare business to take care of a few kids at home, do you need a license? How do you go about it? Is there a special requirements for the caretaker or home layout?

Canellita It depends on how many children you plan to take care of. Anyone can babysit for someone else and be compensated, but if you want to open a day care center you have to have a license. You will also need to have insurance.

Husband had an affair for two years and then moved in with woman.

mommaj @mommaj (23112) • United States 9 Mar 13

I am so frustrated, not because of the affair, but because this woman will not leave ME alone. I do not interfere with their relationship, in fact I could care less. She called me when my husband and I still lived together. She...

Canellita I can't believe I missed this discussion! So sorry you're going through this. Either she's crazy or she wants to be friends. Email me so we can "talk" about it.

Room Lord don pay my deposit rental

rotloi2 @rotloi2 (321) • Malaysia 14 Jan 13

Is that culture that room lord does not hand back deposit? I have rented a room with friend, the landlord said, it is impossible to get back the deposit rental. The landlord always demand early payment. I have never been so stress...

landlord

1 response

Canellita It's normal sometimes. It depends on your arrangement and what it says in your lease. If you have a written lease, it should say when the rent is due. However, the landlord keeps your deposit as security. You don't get it back until you move out.

Canellita I have never heard of this place and I am pretty particular about wine. I would not invest anything in going there unless at least one of you has tasted the wine before and can recommend it to the rest. Of course, you posted this a while back so you may have...

Where is the Caps Lock, Volume and Brightness Sign?

simplepleasures @simplepleasures (282) • Philippines 20 Jan 13

I have an Acer Aspire One D257-1497 net book. Before when I press the Caps lock button, there is a "padlock" sign that appears on the screen. Same is true when I modify the volume and brightness of my net book. However, I...

Canellita I have a different model, but no, that's never happened to me. It may just be a quirk of your machine. Mine had issues right after I bought it. I had to ship it to Texas for repairs. They sent it back and I had the same problem again. It was very frustrating.

It is Valentine's Day

adforme @adforme (2114) 14 Feb 13

Valentine's day. It is a day to celebrate love. I am definitely one who can appreciate love. Real love. Love without conditions, and with the lasting effects of forever and always. I hope people professing to love someone really...

Canellita It's a little late, but hopefully you had a great Valentine's Day. I think it's possible to have a good day even when not professing love to someone in a romantic way. I had dinner with several single friends and we had a blast!

pinkster @pinkster (9) • United States 26 Feb 13

Have you attended a Zumba class? Its a fun way of working out and losing weight. The music alone makes my heart pumping. Sometimes the machines at the gym makes me feel lazy and board until I learned of Zumba. Whoa...working out...

1 response

Canellita I have attended a Zumba class. The fitness center I used to go to had Zumba a few times per week. It was okay, I liked the dance aspect of it, but not the aerobics part. I guess I am just too old to want to jump up and down, lol.

a journey to learn and teach

fun000 @fun000 (5) • China 25 Feb 13

Would you like to travel and teach in a foreign country in this Summer? Do you agree that a meaningful trip can help you make a good decision?

1 response

Canellita Yes, I do agree. It would be a very good opportunity to be able to live and in another country for the summer and have a job teaching. It would almost be like a paid vacation. It would also be an opportunity to truly experience another culture. Of course it...

Do hot flashes keep you from enjoying a hot tub?

TriciaW @TriciaW (2441) • United States 28 Feb 13

Canellita Ooh, you should never sip wine while in the hot tub; that's not a good thing. Did you come up with an alternate plan for the friend who was suffering from hot flashes? I think just the mention of doing something like that is enough to make someone who's...

Do you use a credit union?

Catkin @Catkin (480) • United States 7 Mar 13

Several years ago, my long-time bank was bought out by Chase, a large bank that I really didn't want to be doing business with. It was about the time that they started letting customers know we would be charged a monthly fee if we...

1 response

Canellita There are a lot of benefits to having a credit union account; they generally have less fees than a bank. You usually have to join through a job or a family member one though. There are a few where I live that are connected to a particular community, though I...

Canellita Isn't it great that you can learn so much sitting at the computer without even having to leave home? Some colleges even have the lectures for entire courses available online for you to watch for free!

I Wonder If You Really 'Need' a Space Before a HashTag on Twitter?

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21432) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 25 Feb 13

Because--if you DON'T need a space before a hashtag on Twitter--you don't have to waste any of the 140 characters you're allowed on unnecessary spaces! ('Hashtags' (words with '#' before them) let you link your tweets to other...

1 response

Canellita First of all, it's only one space. However, if you are using several keywords, just don't use a comma in between. If you don't use a space #between #hashtags then you're going to #end#up#with#one#long#run-on#tag. Not pretty is it? You can also #word your...

i will cook it myself

hotsummer @hotsummer (13837) • Philippines 28 Feb 13

my mom said she can cook the plaintain for me. but i say i will just cook on the pan. but she wanted to boil on water so i won't use any oil for my diet. and ask why i should i still fry it. i said it is just a bit of oil so that...

1 response

Canellita I prefer to fry mine as well, but I have also baked them in the oven before. I think boiling them is okay if you are making a dish that calls for green and ripe ones mashed together, but nothing beats frying them.

I learned recently that my niece was accused of cheating on a test at high school. She is an honor student, a smart girl, and I was shocked because I really don't believe she'd ever cheat. Apparently, her teacher called her, and...

Canellita That is absolutely ridiculous! Your sister should have an apology and your niece should get one from the other student, publicly in an assembly, in front of the entire school. I don't have kids, but I've heard of stuff like this happening before.
