RE: Doggie Diapers Won't Stay On
Same thing happened with my dog. She is a mini poodle. I used a pair of my sons old underwear (sz.2T) with a panty liner. It worked fine. After that I had her fixed. ... View related article.

RE: Spouse Won't Sign Divorce Papers
You can go to the court house and file papers. She'll have a certain amount of time to sign them. If she doesn't it will be final after that time has passed. If you don't have any property or kids I wouldn't hire a lawyer. One thing to consider is she may file for spousal support. To find out more about that you can go to your counties' domestic relation section. Good Luck! ... View related article.

RE: Finding a Reasonably Priced Wedding Venue and Caterer
Coming from a family that has a successful catering business, this is my advise.

1. Sometimes deli's or mom and pop restaurants do catering and have contracts with halls. Become a customer, a familiar face. You don't have to spend a lot of money. Just a cup of soup to go, and if the soup is good let them know the next time you go there.

2. After a few visits and you'd like them to cater ask to do a tasting. Let them know that you are on a budget. They will work with you.

3. Ask your friends if you know of anyone who does catering on the side. You'd be amazed how many people do. Don't be shy to ask them to try there cooking before you agree to anything.

4. Pasta is inexpensive and can be elegant. If your looking for elegant I wouldn't use BBQ sauce, katsup or ring bologna as an ingredient. True they taste great but..... you get my point.

5. This is a great way to save on a cake. Make one yourself. Not a real cake a fake cake, out of card board, icing it and make it fancy. Make or order a double layer sheet cake, cut into slices and serve. Nobody will know the difference.

6. Instead of having an all access open bar. Have a limited open bar. Serving 2-3 liquors (beer and a wine).

7. If you find a hall that you like but don't want to spend a lot on their caterer. Remember buffet and family style are less expensive than ordering a specific plate. Also, if you want to have a "friend" cater it. Find out if you can have "their" caterer provide salads appetizers and have your friend do the main dish.

8. You can always have a cocktail reception. Then you won't have to worry about assigned seating. Just make sure there is always plenty of appetizers going around. Now this is when little wienies and shrimp cocktail go hand and hand. Hope this can help you out. ... View related article.

RE: Recycling Window Curtain Packaging
Good Idea to use if you carry a diaper bag. Use it to keep clothes dry incase a bottle leaks. Or keep your adult things in like a checkbook, wallet, pocket callendar and pens. When your not using the diaper bag just pull the clear bag out! ... View related article.

RE: Getting the Best Price on a Paper Shredder
I bought one for my mom a few years ago from Walmart, about $20. The only problem with it is that after a while it gets tired and needs a break, almost like the battery is running low, but it's plugged in. I don't know if that's normal or not. Hopefully you can find one at a yard sale. Also, some recycling plants do paper shredding for free. ... View related article.
