Lately I have been dealing with some ugly, disgusting and inconvenient bugs. I remember that when I was a small child my mother talked about them and even checked if I had them on me. What I am talking about are Lice.…

My father in law came home last Friday from a 3 week stay in a local Hospital.  He is one of those that think that doctors will kill him, surgeons will open his belly and cut what it’s not to cut (Gregory House M.D. style), well he is a difficult…

My daughter will be six in March and still sucks her thumb. Sucking her thumb really calms her down and it’s really a comfort for her to be able to do so. She was a baby that never wanted a pacifier and she only started thumb sucking at the age of…

Who said the acne only happens to teens? Well, I’m 40 years old and I still get acne on my chin. On one hand it makes me happy, I’m still a teenager… on the other end I think, when will this stop happening.

I consulted a dermatologist that told me that this is a hormonal problem,…

Being at home with a medical leave is doing me so good. For 22 years I worked without stopping (only for the two pregnancies leaves) and I feel I am a housewife now. I like the quietness of the house while the kids are at school, I like having no bosses requesting coffee and sheets of…

Are you suffering from mom burn out? Do you struggle just to make it through each day? Moms everywhere are breaking down because they are too chicken to say, “No”.

“No” may be a tiny, two-letter word, but it can be your secret weapon. And you can say it.…

A lot has happened on the past couple weeks. One of the things were problems at my working place.

For quite some months I have been tortured psychologically (I can say this) by my bosses, especially one of them. I have been abused verbally, once I was even pushed against my desk by one of the…

This week was not an easy each both my kids had to take antibiotics but different reasons and I felt like running from one place to another taking care of one and the other.

My daughter had her 3rd tooth falling and it caused an infection because it was very difficult for it to fall. Due…

H1N1 Flu is hitting hard around here. Many cases in the city, at least 2 deaths in the local hospital. One of my co-workers has been with flu symptoms since yesterday but due to the low reading of fever he went to work but this afternoon she had to leave because he was having too much…
