  • e cigarette's how do they work? and not the Scientific answer i am common?

    i am trying the E cigarettes and i have questions for anyone that has used them. I because one cartridge is equivalent to a pack how many puffs do you take to equal a cigarette? 2.) how long should a cartridge last. And 3.) what is the life of charge on your battery? and the reason i ask is because i am a light weight smoker. and 1 pack usually last me a week. But because this is very comfortable to me i do not wish to experience nicotine over dose. so yes i will be ordering some cartridges without the nicotine. but any advice is helpful. i am determine to quit smoking.

  • how do you inform your family to but out of your marriage.?

    i have been married for 27 years. first 11 months were ok but the rest has been hell. 1 affair on both of us drug use from both, i have been 23 years clean on the drugs he has been 21 years clean on the drugs. he still drink an easy 400.00 per month by his self. he spends his weekends with his friends( sleep overs) we both work full time. and i have custody of three grand children mutual agreement, between him and myself we are suppose to be doing this together.. not! in short he has a passive aggressive behavior, and the more i find out about him i find i do not like him at all. But my thing right now others are telling me how to love this man who has supplied me with nothing, but many weekends alone handling all of the household responsibility. Yes he works but he has not paid a bill or assumed responsibility of the bills he creates. i can deal with that for now what i don't like is that people including my children think i will cry if he died. there is honestly nothing there. I try to say nothing but they won't let it go, and tell them when they bring that situation up they remind me of what i never had. a marriage, or a husband, and please just to leave it alone. I am not here by choice but, because this is where i have spent my life time investment. i am tired and i am to old to work with someone who will not work for himself. and he is mean.

  • love like you have been loved.?

    today at church my pastor used me as an example. I was so proud, he said if a person came to me and need to be lifted i could give them the right scriptures and help them to understand that God loves them. and that is so true. I know that God loves all of us i like to believe that i am his favorite. We should all believe that because we are...Then he said that the problem for me is that i don't believe that for myself. I was shocked. But it is ok because i do know that God loves me i know this beyond anything i could possibly believe. nothing but nothing can separate me from that knowledge. But i think what he sees in my everyday life is i spend so little time on me taking care of myself. God has made me a strong person of excellent health and for that i am grateful. I am trying to slow down and just be, but that is hard. My pastor told me to love like i have been loved. and i broke. God loves me and my mom she is great. but the foundations of my life are of violence lies and people who just want to make other people do what they want them to do. I know how to love God, but i don't know how to love people outside my family, and let them into my life. So my Question is how do you change the image of what others see in you when you have never had the experience to be loved?

  • is it ok for a person to drink 9 beers and be responsible to watch kids under ten?

    i need your help for a friend who feels they have no drinking problem. she goes to work at 3:30 am and i off by 1:30 pm and begins drinking right away until 7:30 pm. this person believes she has everything under control. the mood swing the whining she does about the kids not listening to her when she ask them to do something. 9 beers is the bare minimum. the quanity gets higher the closer when the weekend becomes closer. then on the weekend most of the family avoids her just to try to avoid conflict. lets add this up 9x5=45 plus the 18 pack on the weekend 18x2= 36+45= 81 beer. but the truth is 3, 12 packs per week and the 2 18 and a night out with a friend which will require another 12pack. i plan to use this info for family and friends and to see if they would consider intervention.for her.
