My grandmother has recently retired, and since she has suffered congestive heart failure about a month ago, and this month she is in the hospital because she is hypoglycemic.
What can I do, What can me and my family do, she seems unable to adjust from being the family care giver to a recipient of care.
I love my grandmother so I need real advice only.

To me nothing looks sexier in the proper casual context than a womyn in realy cheap flip flops with an awesome pedicure .

How many womyn are aware of this ? I know you buy shoes for yourself and to impress other womyn .

IIf you want to look sexy for a guy tho nothing screams sexier than the bikini for the feet we call flip flops .

I know you cannot wear them to all social occasions but when you can it realy does get some of our motors running so to speak .

Just hope that if you were not aware of this now you are .

So in your opinion ladys which is sexier the 1.99 flip flop or the 200dollar pair of shoes ?

why do some people put down people, insult them, and do whatever they can to humiliate them? it does nothing to benefit them, nothing to benefit anyone they know, and it obviously doesnt do anything to make them look more mature. my question is why people insist on being rude instead of simply pointing out imperfections (the ones that matter i mean)?

I just dont understand how so many people seem to just be so carefree and "laid back" about everything.

I dont see how people can be so light-hearted and just seem to not really care really that much about each other, even though they proclaim they do, it seems very much just on the surface. not going into too much depth ,not minding too much if one goes one way and they never hear from each other again. just "lol" and just not seeming to be on a very deep level in a relationship.

I seem to have a problem of coming onto strongly and very , I guess many would refer to it as "clingy" when i try to enter into a relationship. I get very attached, and obsessed about people I decide to get interested in , and i think about them constantly. and i get to where i think i am just really feeling left out, because i have obviously skipped a quite a few steps ahead of them and it seems to be scaring most , if not all of them away.

Why am i like this you think? (Honestly)

It seems to me that more men watch porn than women, and that most women find it disgusting. But is that a myth? Do women enjoy porn as much as men? Also, do women like to watch it alone, or would they rather watch it with their partners?

I'm a fifteen year old girl and I've been homeschooled for almost four years. I spend all day on my laptop and I hate going out. I don't have a lot of self confidence because of my looks. I also feel nervous and have small anxiety attacks from time to time, even when I go over to my father's for the weekend(parents are divorced.) My mom hasn't kept up my schoolwork and I'm scared about my future. I don't know what to do or how to get over my depression. Oh, before you suggest anything related to faith that could help me, you should know that I'm Pagan.

Well for 1 reason it costs 2 cents to make the 1 cent coin in other words, rip off. Also since 1 cent is nearly worthless people see it as just as just annoying. Most people will ignore if they see 1 on the ground. Others just throw them in the trash. Like goods and servises really need to be rounded off to pennies.

However Tax money would be an issue, I think the average for the states is like 6 or 7 cents on the dollar. They would have to create a system around that.

Lately, Ive been feeling as if im missing something in my life. Im 13, and im soon to be going on a vision quest. I have plenty of love, as all of my friends are of the opposite sex. But there is one particular girl, my BEST friend, that I really like, massively love. And last night at a party, I found out that shes been cutting herself. Right in the middle of the party, I cried. She was not there. And since then, and evven a little before yesterday, Ive just been feeling like I need something in my life that I dont have.
Help?

For some weird reason 75%-80% of the converts to Islam in America and Europe are women. Most of these women enjoy the rights they have here because of the secular constitution our nation provides. While women in Islamic rule( shariah constitution) have very little rights.
I have seen many white men complain about this trend. But we should promote these women to convert rather than harass them. Think about it they are indirectly giving us more rights to control them. If Muslims become a majority Shariah law ends up being the law, that is a given and all Muslim strive for Islamic rule. We can basically tell women they can't have abortion, We can basically control our daughters our wives. Let's be honest we can't tell women what we want these days because they have their own mind. We cant tell them to give up Islam, because it their right to practice it. So instead of fighting it lets just go with the flow because ultimately we benefit. What do you guys say

I frequently (about every other month) have dreams about staircases that have been altered in some way. Like, you're going up & then at some point there's a big gap in the steps & you have to jump to make it, or you fall a long ways. Sometimes there are obstacles you have to jump on or swing across to get to the next steps. I'm usually with people in these dreams, & they have no problem making it to the next step, but I'm freaked out that I'll fall.

The other day, my brother told me he had a dream about a spiral staircase where the steps were lilypads, & it was hard to get from one to the other. He says that he dreams about weird staircases a lot, too.

What do these dreams mean?

Does the economy affect the money market? If the stock market crashes, does the money market go down dramatically?

I'm asking because I do not fully understand how the money market works. Thanks in advanced for your answers.

I don't go to the gym to be healthy, I do it so my boyfriend will be more attracted to me.

I like to carry books around with my sorority's letters on to look intelligent and social.

I put a hot outfit on and will become obsessed with knowing who is checking me out.

I feel a need to tell others about my achievements (job offerings, high mark, a role in a play, a raise)

Why am I so obsessed with what others think of me and getting their approval?

I know I have a problem, please don't be mean.
