Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: What you want to tell mother, but cannot: 8 of 65
I have never known my mother as I was raised by my grandparents and they basically kidnapped me. They had temporary custody and ran, therefore I had no chance to get to know my mother. For 22 years she had no idea where I was or if I was even alive. My grandparents kept moving from place to place to keep me away from her. I ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Environment (Other) Should plastics be replaced with something more environmentally friendly: 1 of 8
It is true that plastic is not the most environmentally friendly substance. If not disposed of properly and by that I mean recycled. Plastic is a wonderful invention that we use on a daily basis. And the most wonderful thing about it is that it can be recycled. Everyone who gets up on their soapbox and says that plastic shou... More..
Celebrations & Holidays > Christmas Is Christmas becoming too commercialized?: 10 of 73
The smell of fresh cranberries and gingerbread cookies fill the air. The whole family is gathered around the piano singing carols and drinking hot spiced cider or Wassail. This sounds like a perfect holiday doesn't it? It may have been a long, long time ago. I walk down the streets and instead of seeing children with eyes fu... More..
Religion & Spirituality > New Age Concepts New age belief and Christianity: 5 of 26
Well as it has been stated by others "New Age" is misnomer. This name is given to beliefs that are not what most people consider normal. But what is normal exactly? I am a Christian and I have some so called New Age beliefs. I practice meditation to calm my mind and de-stress. It is a wonderful form of relaxation that can im... More..
Jobs & Careers > Health & Sciences Jobs So you want to be a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant)?: 2 of 10
Excellent you have made a wise decision to enter the Nursing field as a career. A Certified Nursing Assistant is a very important part of the care giving team.

Computers & Technology > Internet Trends Emoticons and and acronyms in mail and text messages: 1 of 5
I am such a smiley addict it's not even funny. They are just so cute! Of course there are perverted people out there who have made XXX smilies and I think that is just so totally wrong.

Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Driving & arguing: 3 of 12
Oh my goodness yes. Driving and arguing is not a very smart idea especially if your husband is acting like a 2 year old. I would never let my 2 year old drive a car so when we are driving and arguing I would love for him to not be driving. He has a habit of swerving either into the wrong lane or the ditch to scare the bejeez... More..
Computers & Technology > Internet (Other) What are some safe shopping sites to use?: 1 of 4
The safest shopping site to use online in my mind would be wal-mart.com. On this site you have the option to pay with a shopping card that you have bought at one of their millions of stores. You simply get the shopping card put the amount of money on it you want. Then you take it home and surf to the site. You will have to s... More..

I have been married for 9 years, at times it seems so much longer. Our problems started a year after we got married. When they say the honeymoon is over they are not joking!
