I am a new vegan of 2 months, and am loving it by the way!!
but I am wondering if cutting out all the meats & dairy can make me be more sensitive to caffiene?
I ask this because I am a recovering Coke-a-cola addict, and now am on a limit of 3 cans a week.. usually I have one can on friday with my lunch, one on sat and one sunday.. But last night I had a can with dinner because I had missed sundays ration and felt it complitmented my yummy meal.. Well I could not get to sleep that night.. I was still wide awake at 3am.. and this never happens to me... and the only thing that I could think of to be keeping me awake was the can of coke?? your thoughts??

When I wake up in the morning, my stomach is flat and looks nice. As the day goes on, it buldges out more and more till my pants are tight and I look 4 months pregnant!

I am 5'6" and fit, vegetarian. Could it be lactose intolerance or what? It's been like this for as long as I can remember.

If someone was in a car accident, and they were unconcious in the wreakage, Wouldn't you save them without having to asking for their permission? IF YOU LOVED THEM, wouldn't you save them even if they said 'no'?

If Jesus truely loves everyone, why doesn't he save everyone regardless of their religion?

If he did save everyone, then it shouldn't be possible that I am going to Hell. Once someone has already been saved they can't decide to unsave 'themselves'.

im a babysitter/mothers helper,

i have been for a couple months now, id like to know how to be better at it.

im babysitting 4-7 kids at a time, youngest 1 oldest 9, its fairly easy, but hectic at times,

so, my normal routine, arrive, entertain/watch/play with 3 kids outside, while we wait for the others to arrive,

then we go inside, and play downstairs, normally just board games, or house or dollies, and this is about when they start getting loud, (like some advice for here)

then we go upstairs and eat dinner, usually well behaved while the parents are around, although im not sure where to set my standards as to how many bites of chicken they must have before they can leave the table, etc,

then we go downstairs, and play games somewhat quietly, this is where it gets somewhat violent, the children hit, and scream, and i try my best, (need advice here)

then its about 10 pm, and its time for 2 of the kids to go home, then we dress the 5 or so children in their

With an entire house as free range why do flies have to single out and annoy you? Why do they always dive bomb irritating places like your ears while you are trying to sleep? I'm serious.

Ok. We all agree that "big business" is here for the money and nothing more. So, when they can't make big profits by exploiting undocumented workers (who presumably will work for little to nothing), how many of these companies will simply move production over seas? And, when they do, how will that affect our economy?

Nearly 2 years ago, my husband became obsessed with only buying items made in the USA. YOU would be amazed at how few things we could find. Clothing is nearly entirely made elsewhere. We even tried Farm & Fleet (farmer store) and they only have 1 brand (Carthall?) that is made here. WE looked at Wal-mart (thinking they spouted american slogans) and found nothing. Nothing made in the US. what do you think?

i just bid on an item and lost.... however i have also bid on another similar item....and lost as well.....and finally im on my third item....similiar to the first two, which i won. Then i was reading around and i found out that if the other high bidders retract the bid i may become the winner for those and am responsible for my bid. That means i could have up to 3 of the same thing! does anyone know how long these "binding" obligations last? is it like 48 hours or something or is it infinite....like coming back 1 week later to bite me in the *ss
