    Help! What should I do for a painful earache?

    Yes, I would also try the warm olive oil and cotton ball. This was how earaches were treated in my family when I was a child. Certainly worth a try, just make sure the oil is not too hot, it will always feel warmer inside the ear than outside.

    Never sunburn again

    Don't wish to appear to be too personal, but do you take a birth control pill? :/ I had a similar situation many years ago, my docotr told me I was allergic to the sun, gave me pills and potions, which just made me sleep. I stopped the medication and suffered for many years. I then stopped...

    How many use and appreciate.......

    Wow, I wish I'd known this years ago, my monthly time has well and truly gone. But tell me more about personal cloths, do you also keep them in a bucket/basket at the side of the toilet, dry in in water, and did someone say about washing them with the towels? Please tell me how you all deal...

    Hi! Im new here!

    Why no holes in the bottom, only the sides? Just curious, I have always put holes in the bottom, I suppose because when you buy pots that's where they usually are, but if holes in the sides work better, then that's for me.

    Television

    I've had TV most of my life, when we moved to Belize, we rented an apartment for 18months whilst our house was being built and had cable TV for which we had to pay an extra charge. It seemed quite a waste of money, we hardly ever watched it. When we moved into our new house, we decided we were...

    Ladies, may I ask you a question in private?

    I was diagnosed as "going through the change in my mid thirties", just feeling depressed mood swings etc. During that time I did have a spell of hot flashes at night, to the point where I was dripping wet through and so was the bed. I was about 49 when the period sstopped and boy did it hit...

    dyeing eggs

    Good article, I remember Mum doing this when I was young, she also used to brew tea and coffee and dye eggs with that. Don't remember the eggs tasting of either, but it is a long long while ago.

    What did you do to save $ today?

    I cut down all plastic bottles or containers, punch holes in the bottom and use as plant pots, for starting seeds, or cuttings. The tops cut off drinks bottles can also be used for mini cloches on seeds sown straight into the ground. All my t shirts for working around the animals, land and...
