bloglog @bloglog (628) • Singapore 22 Apr 09

busyB4 Yeah, I havent heard this but I really think our country has let things go TOO far already. I dont think in many ways we would be self sufficient now if these countries decided not to trade with us anymore. I am glad to see at least this one return!

busyB4 Aww , I hope you find good homes for them soon. You might consider lowering the price a little as they are getting older if they dont go soon. I do think the economy has affected so many that they are more concerned with their own family than getting a dog. I...

busyB4 It took mine about 2 and a half weeks for them to be answered and then I got one back to add too, and did and then it got rejected. I must say I have NOT been very happy to do these tasks that consume so much time to just be rejected for my work!

busyB4 I usually go to my interests first also. I had rather chat about things I am more familiar with than spend so much time searching for something I want to answer. Things I am more interested in!

Do eat fresh vegetables or canned or frozen?

taface412 @taface412 (3175) • United States 20 Apr 09

Since I have been watching sodium counts I try to either eat fresh vegetables or frozen vegetables. They are both the lowest in sodium counts, which helps ward off the water weight issues and keeps your body healthier. But cans...

busyB4 I prefer fresh when I can get them. Some stores do carry a no salt or low salt in canned but they may have them in a different area of the store than just with the canned. I do freeze some too from fresh when I get more than I would cook in one setting.

always wanted to ice skate

Djbrat @Djbrat (333) • United States 17 Apr 09

Ever since I have been a little girl, I've always wanted to wear those cute uniforms and glide across the ice. It's very hard and you really have to be focused. But still always wanted to be part of that.

busyB4 You should take beginner lessons , they help you feel a good bit more confident and you are not the only one struggling to learn it at the dame time. I dont do all the fancy steps my kids do, but learned how to skate ,turn, stop and go backwards. We did this...
