leeesa The content has to be original and not previously posted on the web. If you buy content, chances are someone else has also bought it and posted it somewhere on the internet. Therefore, it would be against AC's policies and may just get you banned. I wouldn't...

You know the saying about pets looking like their owners? Well how about this? Does your closet look vaguely similar to your life? If your closet has accumulated excess baggage, then it is probable that your life has too! Most of...

leeesa It can be quite liberating, but just like you never know what you may find in the back of your closet, you never know what thoughts may be freed once the mind fog has cleared.

leeesa I work in the banking industry and must point out that there are a lot of misconceptions about the banking industry right now. Not all banks are receiving bailout money. Not all banks are lavishing their top executives and clients with expensive trips and...

leeesa That's a great attitude. I'm hearing so much lately "what's in it for me?" instead of "what can I do to help?".

leeesa I guess I mainly needed to vent and to hear something positive because I'm doing a breast cancer fundraiser and am having a very difficult time raising donations. Good to hear there still are generous people around, even if they are on a different continent!...

hosting a vendor fair, that is! I'm doing an event called Shop til You Drop in December and I'm booking tables right now, checking on advertising and finalizing the food drive piece of the event. Has anyone ever don't this...

leeesa Did you ever do your event? Mine is this Saturday, in just 2 days and I'm terribly nervous! Advertising it has been the biggest challenge since it's very expensive and you never really know what works and what doesn't.

leeesa Thank you. I know what you mean about some reds being hard on the eye! Hopefully it will be lucky for me! It's not a money making site, it's more to help other people, so hopefully some of that karma will come back to me. :)

leeesa I design all my websites. It's just a hobby, I'm definitely no pro, but I enjoy the challenge of bettering myself each time! I noticed the "home" link as well and the funny thing is, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't so I haven't figured out how to...

Do you think that by McCain choosing Palin as his running mate that it is an insult to Hillary Clinton? Do you think it is just his desperate attempt to sway the female vote? Do you think they can win the election?

leeesa Busing here is $190. I was fortunate that I didn't have to pay it this year. The daycare she goes to isn't in the busing area for her school, so the daycare takes her and the other students to school. They don't charge extra for it thankfully!

leeesa It definitely doesn't seem fair, but teaching is one of the lowest paid occupations there is so I somewhat understand. But I do hate the fundraisers. They put so much pressure on the kids to sell, sell, sell. We don't have a lot of family and I won't solicit...

leeesa Not from the trash, but when I used my card to reserve a hotel room. I didn't pay with my card, my company did, but they wouldn't let me have the room unless I put down a credit card in case there were room charges. I personally think the hotel didn't...

leeesa Thank you for your honest response. I understand all about living with a bipolar person (he also passed it down to our daughter) but I just can't imagine the turmoil of living with it myself. I pray that you will never enter that darkness so far that you can't...

leeesa Thank you for your encouraging response and your prayers. I think the "whys" will never go away, but I am holding on to the thought that he is in a better place now where he is able to be free from the demons than bound him to this earth.
