Profile For Smileah - Canadian in Thailand
Hi!  My husband got a great job in Thailand - so we'll be here for a few years....  I didn't like it at first, but things are starting to roll, and I am enjoying it more everyday.  I miss my pals and family in Canada and the UK, but want to make the most out of this experience.  Including.....the saving of money.  Hence my interest in Thrifty Fun.  Yay!

RE: Adopting Children from Vietnam
Good for you! I don't know about adopting from Vietnam, but I do know that you can adopt from Thailand.

I live near this orphanage http://www.fr-ray.org/ and there are many kids waiting for mammas and pappas! I know this didn't answer your question, but I hope it helps. God bless! ... View related article.

RE: Solutions for Over Processed Hair
I had a similar experience only a week ago, but have come out smiling. Please, Please do not attempt to fix this yourself. I did, and things got much worse!

This is by no means thrifty advice. If you are willing to pay quite a bit - you don't have to have it cut off. You can save your hair! Have them give your hair two or three treatments. Honestly, if it is really, really damaged, you may need at least two treatments in a row.

My hair had turned blue and was falling out in bunches when I had to be rescued by the salon. They rinsed the disastrous color out with a mixture of shampoo, bleach and peroxide.
That took all color out of my hair, and it was peroxide blond. I started to panic because my hair felt like rubber - but the hair dresser told me it would all be ok.

He then put a toner in my hair - using copper tones - and then moved on to the treatments. He gave my hair three courses of (expensive) but amazing treatments.

My hair is now healthier than I can ever remember it being, and my natural color is back. Hope this gives you hope. There is a light at the end of the tunnel!

RE: Getting Your Cat to Drink More Water
What a great idea! Yes, it is so important. We lost a dear little kitty named Felix to kidney disease in December, and I am now always looking for ways to keep Stella - our other cat - completely healthy.
I also like the idea of water in motion. I shall look into it! Surely there is a thrifty way to devise one of those?
This is a great tip. Thankyou. ... View related article.

RE: Need Help Planning an Inexpensive Wedding
We bought beautifully decorated cupcakes from the bakery department at the local grocery store. They were a fraction of the price we would have paid for a wedding cake or 'wedding cupcakes' anywhere else. ... View related article.

RE: Owning a Husky/Shepherd Mix in One Bedroom Apartment
I own a Pyrenean Sheepdog - and for the first three years of her life we shared a one bedroom apartment. She has loads of energy, but with lots of walks and toys for her to play with in the apartment, she was completely fine.
I made the effort to drive her to parks where she could run free at least three times a week. Other than that, she was fine on her leash.
She's the happiest dog I've ever met. Now that we're in a house, she prefers to stay inside with me - even though she's got a huge yard to run around in. I think you should go for it!
Best descion I ever made.... : ) ... View related article.

RE: Parvo after Vaccinations?
I am just so sorry to hear about what you are going through.

Yes, my dog died of Parvo after he had been injected. He was ill and then got better but died suddenly two weeks later. The vet confirmed it was Parvo.

But of course, check with your vet.

Take Care,

Leah ... View related article.
