how honest should I be?
ok, i just decided to take my career in a different direction and i started pinup modeling. i made a page for myself with a different name so that "respectable" employers and people who know me personally can't google me and find what i've been up to.
but when it comes to dating, at what point do i tell people that this is what I do? i mean, they should probably know that I pose for websites and magazines, right? also, in my relationships i'm very conservative and traditional and take things really slowly, so they might be upset that strangers see more of me than they do. so how do I tell a person what i do for a part time job?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agohas anyone else treated hypothyroidism with supplements?
I have been researching hypothyroidism and believe I have it. like most people, i have tested negative but still have almost every symptom: chronic fatigue, depression, dry skin and hair, edema, weight gain and trouble losing weight, almost every symptom, i have it. I also tend to not like artificial drugs, so I have been looking at taking supplements and treating this holistically. I have had a little success in taking a super b complex and flax seed oil. however, I have done some more research and found out about iodine, vitamins a, d, and e, as well as amino acids and antioxidants.
so I guess my question would be--has anyone else treated their hypothyroidism holistically? what did you use, and how which brands/kinds worked best for you?
5 AnswersOther - Diseases1 decade agocan we buy this house/take over payments on it?
My grandmother passed away over a year ago and willed her house to my mother. However, this house had a loan taken out against it between my grandmother and another man, who she was not married to. The man has disappeared, he cannot be found at all. Now lawyers are foreclosing and the house cannot be re-financed (to lower payments and save the house from foreclosure) because without the man's signature they cannot put the house in my mom's name?
So my question is: what steps need to be taken to put the house in my mother's name, or, if we can't do that, if it gets foreclosed on, can my mother then buy the house from the bank?
thanks for your help!
5 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoIf my boss closes her company, can I get unemployment?
I'm a groomer who works for a grooming/boarding facility in North Carolina. We are a personally owned business--no corporate or franchise or anything else. Just my boss (who owns the business) and me (who works there)
recently, my boss told me she wants to shut the business down because we are only breaking even, and with business slowing down, we are now "in the red" if she shuts down, can I receive unemployment benefits until I find a new job?
Who pays unemployment benefits if the whole business goes 'out of business'?

2 AnswersFinancial Aid1 decade agoDo men prefer ladies?
Okay, when you listen to music or watch music videos, you see girls that are not very lady-like, making you think that that is what a modern woman is supposed to be. I describe myself as being as far from lady-like as possible but when I meet someone new, to practice good manners, I don't swear or be loud because I want them to be at ease around me. Several guys have told me they really appreciate how lady like I am and how nice it is to be around a female who doesn't swear or act crazy. Is this just a line, or do men really prefer ladies??
4 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoMy doberman talks to himself!?
I have a doberman who is about fourteen months old. I have noticed if i leave him alone for long periods of time (like outside) or if he's frustrated, he "talks" to himself. Not words, of course, just this little doggie dialogue where it sounds like he's talking to himself, kind of muttering, maybe. is this "his" thing or a "doberman" thing?
