Have any of you self published a book and was successfull with it? Now there's a lot of talk out there of people saying how they write because they love it and they don't write for money. I am with everyone on that. But has anyone...

Rahleah I've heard negative things about self publishing. Why don't you look into a web site on a company called Publish America. It's www.publishamerica.com They publish for you (if they select you) and it doesn't cost you, but you do get a portion of the profits...

Rahleah Can't even let them into the bedroom due to severe asthma. (They are very offended by it, by the way.)

If all the doctors will be like House, hospitals will be an intresting place to go. Though he's irritating (with all that smart remarks) but at the end of the day you feel safe because you know you will be cured. And to tell you...

Rahleah I'd just like to tell anyone who doesn't have a doctor who makes them feel completely safe (like House would) to start looking. You deserve a doctor who is straight forward with you and who is tenacious enough to really dig for answers as if your life depends...

Rahleah Oh, I just now saw your follow-up statement that the emergency room doctor actually told you no one has died from an infection. You MUST get a copy of this article I have mentioned to you and take it there and SHOVE it into his face. He needs to be...

Rahleah Yes, I've heard of doctors like that. And I know that in the general population there is much overuse of antibiotics. But let me tell you why you are right to be outraged. A 12-year-old boy just died in Pittsburgh, Pa., from an infected tooth that did not get...

dressing for salad

Rahleah There's a new dressing out called sweet Italian. I can't recall the brand right now, but it's great. Could be Marzetti's? In the area where I live, we put lots of things in our salads and make a meal out of the salad itself. There, of course are steak salads...

So what do you think of a four year old still breastfeeding? And why do you feel that way? I'm fine with it. The World health Organization says at the least 2 years and beyond as long as both mother and child are happy. No...

Rahleah Hey, I think some folks need to refer to the top and remember this all started with "what do you think" and "why do you feel that way?" Lillake ASKED for opinions and the thoughts behind them. For anyone to attack someone who then left an opinion and their...

Rahleah I don't get it, but to each his own. Personally, I would think that when kids are old enough to attend pre-school and be potty trained (by 3) then they are past the breastfeeding stage. It's simply a personal preference, but a lot of people have very strong...

Rahleah Allow me to introduce myself as the mother of two girls, 18 and 19. Believe me when I give you the short answer and tell you, "Yes, you will survive." And also, "Yes, I think it is worse with girls." Then, ignore me (for your own survival benefits) when I...

Rahleah I do agree. Many people have internal conditions (congestive heart failure, etc.) and they couldn't possibly walk too far but still want to be able to get out to the store now and then as they are able. Still others who are in the early stages of MS or...

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night starving? What is your favorite way to settle those hunger pains? Personally, I like to eat toast with peanut butter or dry cereal like Cheerios, both are fast and I can get back to...

Rahleah That "night" eating is usually a very specific "calling." You have to go with it. You can't fight it. You don't just look blankly into the fridge. You know what you went out there for. It's different for me all the time. Sometimes a bowl of cereal. Sometimes...

Rahleah Well, I believe when they get down to the final 12 they have show stylists who help them prepare for each telecast. Honestly, they should do it with the final 24, in fairness. How in the world would they expect these people to already know how to dress like a...

Rahleah No. I love breakfast and I eat a wide variety of things. Routine can really be helpful at breakfast if you have a good routine. Back when I was exercising and dieting, I had the same breakfast every single day and it really helped me lose weight. I don't have...

Rahleah Cookbooks. I know it's not what you meant, but I can't stop buying them. I have so many that I don't really refer to them. If I have favorite recipes out of them, I keep those recipes in a separate book so I can access them easily. But I have all these...

Rahleah Just ordered four new books from amazon.com. Here's how I picked. Sidney Poitier's Measure of a Man because I've recently fallen in love with him as an actor all over again. And I've learned a few things about his life and am eager to hear more. I bought...

Rahleah The best advice my pediatrician ever gave me was, "They don't starve quietly." And I found this to be true. any time she felt she had't had enough, she found a way to let me know ... at high volume. I only wish they had discovered the baby sign language when...
