    birth control-need opinions!

    I tried the patch- had a horrible reaction to the adhesive they use on it and got horrible cramps. Then I was on Ortho Tri Cyclin LO and after about 3 months I think my body adjusted and it was ok. Worst thing for me was my boobs would get SO tender- that was never an issue before. But I just...

    How to deal with this customer regarding chinchilla death

    I am in agreement and say that No, it is not your responsibility to give her, or even discount a 2nd chin. Your policy is very clear and she signed the agreement. And for loving her chin sooo much I would think she, or her husband would know what happened to the body. Really makes me scratch my...

    Explain this to me, if you would

    Ok kind of a weird question- are you pretty quiet unless people approach you? Or are you outgoing? I consider myself a very nice and polite person most of the time, as do many of my friends; however I have also received contridicting opinions on that on occasion. What I found from the people...

    Ramps?

    They aren't necessarily bad, as long as they are solid, they just aren't needed. Chins are leapers and get along just fine w/o them

    Coaching Little Kids

    yeah- this is definitely the hardest age group I have right now out of the 6 teams I am in charge of. I pack a lot into each practice to try to make it so they don't get too comfortable and start losing focus (I have to do this w/ my middle and high school kids, so it was natural for me to do it...

    Need help

    Well... here's what I have to say- considering that I myself have had my life threatned by another adult while he was intoxicated I can say that I was terrified and never gained my trust back of that person. I could easily see how a tiny creature that was threatned by an adult would never gain...

    Coaching Little Kids

    Ok so I've tried the rewards thing and it worked a couple of times. So thanks Amanda. But I still have 3 out of my 8 kids on this particular team that I cannot get to focus. I have tried different punishments- having them sit out, run laps, do push ups, etc, but they aren't getting the hint...

    Finally spring.

    Ha Ha, I"m glad your spring means no more wet snowy weather lol. I got a snow day today here because of our "spring snow" that we get every March. Heavy Wet Sloppy snow. Of course that was last night and this morning- by noon today the 8 inches that fell last night was mostly melted away.

    Fur Chewing

    I think it can be genetic, or it can be a result of stress or boredom. Gizmo was a fur chewer when we got him- definitely made himself a 'piece of art' LOL. But after a few months here he stopped and has great fur. Each time I've moved he's taken to sculpting one of his cage mates rather than...

    Switching bedding?????

    It's really a personal opinion if one is better than the other. I prefer Aspen or Pine to the carefresh because I don't seem to notice the smell as much, but the wood bedding tends to be kicked out of my cages more so it's messier... I recommend trying a small bag of the aspen and see which you...

    Coaching Little Kids

    Ok I have been coaching volleyball for 7 years, but only at the high school and middle school level and my program has been quite successful. This year I have a team of elementary schoolers averaging about 9 years old and I have to say it’s definitely a challenge. Volleyball is a pretty...

    Kids these days

    I coach youth volleyball and the youngest of my girls are in 4th grade. I had to send letters home to parents explaining what appropriate work out gear was. Some of these girls were showing up in 'booty shorts' and spaghetti strap tanks w/ no training bras and some of them need them. I had some...
