RE: Caring for the Homeless
I have the same question. There is a young man that is so kind and so unassuming that I hand some change occasionally if I have it to spare. He recently knocked on my door wanting to know if I could spare a long sleeve sweat shirt and slacks for him to sleep in at night. I gave those to him and an old quilt and a pillow and some thick socks to sleep in. I have actually invited him to stay with us, but he refuses which is expected I guess. My biggest concern with this man is he appears to be anywhere from a young teen to an adult. He has no facial hair and that really bothers me that he is most likely very young. I don't know why I get so upset over him but I do. Just a sense I have about him. I wish I knew an organization to help him. ... View related article.

RE: Dog is Hiding and Won't Eat
My friend's chihuahua did this when he had fleas really bad. It seems the fleas were not so bothersome in the dark. Is this a possibility? ... View related article.

RE: Garnishing Disability for Child Support
I don't think that you can do that but do call Social security and find out. Also if she knows where he is living and has an address it seems depending on the laws where you live that she can have him arrested for not paying child support. I hope something works out for you and you daughter and her child. These are hard times and a dead beat parent is so sad. ... View related article.

RE: Dealing with Adult Children at Home
I am not sure what you mean by "refuse to take any of my suggestions to heart in caring for the baby" but as long as the baby is not neglected or abused I would leave it alone. I know it is very difficult but really giving advice is all you can do since they are the parents. My best advice is to try and not get too involved in the baby's care so you do not get upset. I admire you for taking them in and I hope they appreciate you. Do take care of yourself and try not to get upset or stressed out. ... View related article.

RE: Tips for House Cleaning Business
I used to clean apartments and homes and the first idea I thought of is when you visit a apartment management office is to bring a plant or a small basket with a potholder, a sample of dish washing detergent, etc. Just something that will be sitting on their desk after you leave and remind them that you are available for the job of cleaning should they have a need.

When I cleaned I had a system that worked for me. I would put cleanser on whatever seemed to need to soak while I cleaned everything else. I would then pick up the trash, and go on from there. I am sure you can come up with a routine that makes it all go smoothly and as quick as possible while a job well done. ... View related article.

RE: Easy Afghan Crochet Patterns
Thanks for posting this. I thought I had seen and tried just about all afghan designs, but this one is new and the part about it being good for when I am watching tv and such and not having to count too many stitches or look up directions is great for me. ... View related article.

RE: Canceling Delivery of Rachel Ray Diet Supplements
I purchased this sample pack also and the number they give to call to cancel just rings and rings, never anyone to answer or to tell to cancel your order. This is so cruel and misleading. I had to resort to calling my credit card company and paying to have this company blocked from debiting my account. ... View related article.

RE: Looking for "Work from Home" Sites
www.wahm.com, www.workplacelikehome.com, are two sites to get information about various jobs. There is tremendous support on both sites if you have questions about a job. http://workathomemafia.proboards.com/ is the best site I have ever frequented on this subject. Register and have fun, meet others who work from home and love it and do earn a living that is reasonable.
