rowantree Drink lots of water, that really does make a difference, especially if all you're drinking all day is soda or coffee. If the apricot scrub is making your skin feel oilier, they do have an oily skin version, so if you haven't tried it, maybe you might want to?...

rowantree Sometimes talking takes my mind off the pain, if it's a conversation I'm really interested in and as long as the other person doesn't ASK me about my pain level. I find that even thinking about something else can sometimes ease the pain a bit. Going online...

rowantree My 15 yr old has always talked in her sleep. It's funny and scary. Funny at the things she says sometimes, but most of the time I can't understand her. Sometimes she'll be sitting up in bed, just jabbering away and she'll have no memory of it in the morning....

frankiecesca @frankiecesca (2489) 10 Aug 11

rowantree I'm not really clear on why the riots started. I have heard that it was all because someone was shot by the police. We were in England in 2007 and the one thing that really stood out for us was how polite and orderly the English are. I'm in the US. I am...

selling kids clothes via consignment shop

3SnuggleBunnies @3SnuggleBunnies (16374) • United States 20 Jul 11

rowantree If you have boys' clothes in infant and toddler sizes, they sell like hotcakes on eBay and you might get much more money for them than in a consignment shop. I've personally found that girls' clothing does not sell as well as boys does on eBay. To sell...

Sometimes some stupid things are invented for the sake of "beauty"

Oneironaut @_sketch_ (5742) • United States 16 Jul 11

Do You Think It is Rude to Arrive Early to Parties?

ladym33 @ladym33 (10979) • United States 15 Jul 11

I have some friends that I love dearly but they always show up to our parties early. I am not talking a few minutes which wouldn't bother me. But they come between 15 to 30 minutes early and this disrupts me from taking care of...

rowantree 30-45 minutes is way too early. Even 15 minutes is too early. The first few times they arrived early, did you give them jobs to do to help with the party and now they feel that by arriving early they are helping you with the party? Is there any way you can...

rowantree I think we've all ate a little dirt! Depends on how much the child swallowed. Kids playing outside, decide to eat the dirt, that's definitely not being a bad parent, that is called kids being kids! I'm guessing you're not a parent. I don't know where you...
