lucycat I just quit a week ago with the help of nicotine patches. I did lapse a couple of times but it's important to keep trying. One thing you have to be conscious of is the triggers that make you want to smoke more. For me, it's drinking alcohol, or hanging out...

I won't deny that I grew up drinking large amounts of tasty good o'l KOOL-AID, but I was only a child and I didn't give a flip about ALL the sugar I was inhaling or sucking up, it was ALL about the sweet taste, and I was a real...

lucycat Diet Pepsi is my drink of choice and I drink ungodly amounts of it. Water.. not so much. I've tried several times to find a healthier alternative but for some reason I'm not satisfied unless there's carbonation. YAY bubbles!

lucycat Ok, you really only need to do a partial water change when cleaning your aquarium. Getting it totally clean can actually be harmful to the fish. Tanks will naturally develop beneficial bacteria in them that is necessary to the fish so you want to leave that as...

lucycat What exactly are you doing when you change the water? Are you doing a partial water change or replacing all of it? And you said you added salt.. is it saltwater or freshwater?

Ok, I saw this question in our local little paper and had to ask all you MyLot members what your answer to it would be. Just how desperate for food would you have to be to resort to eating roadkill??? Yup, we're talking about...

lucycat I imagine that I'd have to literally be starving to death before I resorted to this. I'm incredibly squeamish. I can't even handle raw meat to cook it. One thing I can barely eat anymore is ramen. No matter how hungry or broke I've been, I've got without...

I had a sheer intention to learn to ride a bicycle. When I used to see other poeple driving a bicycle, I became a bit surprised thinking how it is possible to drive a vehicle which has only 2 wheels! I thought, it was very...

lucycat I started out with a little tricycle that was purple and had the cutest flowered basket on the front. I got my first real kids bike when I was maybe five and practiced with training wheels first. When I was about 10 I got my first 10-speed bike but it was so...

I read the title to someone elses discussion and it made me think of this one. Why do people think that when they use perfume, cologne, body spray, etc that they have to bathe in it? All you need is one small sprsy or squirt. Why...

lucycat This is so true. When you're surrounded by an odor all day you stop smelling it. I used to work with someone that reeked with perfume and she'd respray throughout the day. It made me nauseous. If I wear perfume I spray myself once and that's enough.

We have moved many times in the years we've been married (18 years) In fact, we moved 7 times in the first 11 years of marriage (we've stayed put now for 7). In all these moves, we have never lived anywhere that had a dishwasher....

lucycat My boyfriend and I both take turns washing our dishes by hand. I've never had a dishwasher and it seems like that would use a lot of energy for the small amount of dirty dishes two people make. So, if I had a dishwasher I probably wouldn't use it that much....
