SydneyHazelton I used to work on a flexible schedule. I had the time to send my daughter to school and exercise after that, before picking her up in the early afternoon. But since I started on full-time work schedule, I had no time to send her to school and I think we were...

This question might sound insensitive but if you are not willing to share, it's okay. I hope the exchange that we will be having here will inspire or encourage others to pursue weight goals. Back in the day, high school and...

SydneyHazelton I'm currently about your weight or slightly more. I used to be about 90 pounds before I got pregnant. I try to jog sometimes, but not regularly though. I also have a problem of continuous eating, no matter the time of the day. I begin to feel that I'm eating...

Both rob us of peace of mind and energy and I am so guilty of both. I hope to do better this new year. One magazine says first we need to forgive ourselves for doing it. I am putting off getting ready for work now, so I gotta run....

SydneyHazelton Hi GardenGerty, I'm guilty of procrastination too. But I know that I can't afford to do that this year. I have taken up a second job and I have to ensure that both runs smoothly. The first one requires me to be at work between 7am and 2pm. The second one is...

I am not really in the mood for work today (or maybe, just at this very moment). I think it has something to do with the weather. It is cloudy and part of the sky (as I see in the office window) is covered with thick...

SydneyHazelton Hi dolce_vita78, It's a slow Monday for me too. It was cloudy earlier in the morning. I had thought of jogging, but was afraid it might pour. I'm working from home today and it has been sluggish since. I managed to do a bit of work and now, decided to mylot...

SydneyHazelton Dear desertrose, I'm usually very cautious of who I lend money to. Very long ago, a classmate called me to ask me for money. She was crying. I asked what the money was for. It was not reasonable and I said no. Another friend asked me for some money. She was...

SydneyHazelton Hi Devonavis, I'm glad to hear that an artist with just a couple of months of fame has thought about giving back to the society. That's pretty humbling in my opinion. I take my hat off to him for helping the typhoon victims.

SydneyHazelton Hi Tannie, I like your definition of success. It is not related to having loads of money, a huge house, nice cars, glamorous and expensive clothes, etc. Your idea of success is simple, achievable and makes you happy. I'm glad that you have found the...

SydneyHazelton Hi Dee, I feel for your friend. I know how it feels to be cheated. I have been in that situation before. No one will know how she feels unless you experienced it yourself. When you are in the situation, many things come to mind. To leave or not to leave is...

SydneyHazelton According to a mylotter, Redgage is legit and they do pay through a debit card. I have just made a withdrawal for the first time. They have contacted to me. Apparently, they will give you a virtual card, through which you can make payment online. I'm quite...

SydneyHazelton I think that there must be a reason why he is asking for 3 years. Did your cousin ask him? To me, it is not a matter of time, but a matter of what he intends to do with the time given. If he plans to further his studies to get a better job or he is going to...

SydneyHazelton In psychology, they will tell you that she needs to go through various stages of grief before she can so-called "move on". The stages are denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. I believe that everyone grieve differently. Your friend need to...

SydneyHazelton Gosh! I think you are putting yourself at much risk. I don't think you should be doing so much work when you are so ill. You really need more rest. Please do not forgo sleep in order to get things done around the house. Housework will never get done anyway....
