luminousent I agree, I might need more things, but I bargain hunt. Where as my man does not, if he needs something he gets where ever he is. He doesn't make lists and doesn't shop around. In the end I think I spend a little more but I get more for my dollar.

luminousent Irish, thanks. I will look in to it. I have been to the acupuncturist but that isn't something I can do on my own. I have also tried acupressure points but that didn't work for me. I have been afraid of the chiropractor and have never tried because I didn't...

Green tea is excellent for your health, they say. However, I don't like the taste of it. I have tried adding peppermint and ginger tea to it and also a little honey. I don't like things too sweet. Do you have any suggestions that...

luminousent I have not heard of white tea, I will look it up. I only steep my green tea for 4 minutes. But I let my peppermint or ginger steep for 10 or more. Thank you.

luminousent I am going to try the Celestial Seasonings brand, my natropath suggested it to me today, thanks. I, personally, don't like berry flavored tea. Unfortunately, I really like black tea and chai tea, things that aren't that good for me.

I care a lot about it. Whenever I see a pretty girl in movies or shows, my eyes go to her tummy first. I appreciate if a girl has a pretty flat tummy. I daily do stomach exercises and maintain mine even though I have a pretty good...

luminousent It's hard to take care of your belly after having babies. I have 4 myself, I think natural childbirth really helps, c-sections cut right through your muscles. That is what I have noticed with friends and family. After a couple of surgeries to fix a few hernias...

luminousent Yes, and sometimes I feel like they are over too soon. I personally couldn't say which I prefer, as long as it is a good movie the length has little to do with my decision making process. If I have other things to do, I do them first.

luminousent I just want to thank you again for your advice writer44. Trying to stretch her bladder is working. She has been dry for 2 days in a row. And she is loving the game of it. Sometimes I pay her a penny a minute, and sometime we see who can hold it the longest. I...

luminousent Thank you writer44. I will start trying that tomorrow. It does sound unhealthy but I know that her bladder is small because she goes potty about every 10 min. after she drinks anything and often when she hasn't had anything. That girl must pee a million times...
