I feel that's the most important thing you can do for your relationship. To show your true feelings for them. I try to make love to my wife all the time. It's always better for us both that way and better for our relationship.How often do you really make love to your spouse instead of just wam bam done.?
About twice a week. He wakes me up to make love pretty often. It's so sweet. But usually we just have awesome sex. I like both.How often do you really make love to your spouse instead of just wam bam done.?
i dont think human intimacy is very healthy at all
Sometimes twice a day. Never wam-bam unless we both are in the mood for that but then afterward we usually do it again much slower.
Sometimes wam bam has it's place if both parties are interested in that.
Are you asking a question?
Or
You are answering your own question.
well arent you special....and it's good that you want to show her how you lover her with love making but I am assuming you also show her your love by being a good husband and father to your kids and by being respectful to her and never making her ask more than once to throw out the trash. you see i had a husband who would ';make love'; to me every nite...how could he not. I was hot and willing. But outside the bedroom his ';love'; was lazy, indifferent and uninvolved. so MEN, while making love sounds sweet and endearing, REAL love is actually being a REAL partner in all aspects in the relationship.
I am not assuming you are neglectful outside the bedroom....just consider this a public announcement. I would hate to think men are deluding themselves into thinking that making love is ';enough'; in showing love.

How long does it take for a piece of mail to get from upstate New York to Southern New Jersey?
If the mail was sent from Upstate New York on Friday, and it's now Monday, when should we expect this mail to arrive to South Jersey? A regular envelope, nothing fancy. Thanks for your answers!How long does it take for a piece of mail to get from upstate New York to Southern New Jersey?
should have been one day.How long does it take for a piece of mail to get from upstate New York to Southern New Jersey?
one day to six years or more
Regular letter mail should arrive in three business days, with Saturday being a business day for the US mail. Assuming the letter was picked up by the Postal Service on Friday, it should normally arrive pretty much anywhere in the United States on Tuesday.
If the letter sat in the mailbox until Monday (most street mailboxes aren't emptied on weekends), the letter may not arrive until Thursday.
Two days seems right, but Sunday does not count. If it was mailed before the last pick-up on Friday, expect it Monday or Tuesday. If it was mailed after the last pick-up from somewhere with no Saturday pick-ups, do not expect it before Wednesday.
Was it dropped at the Post Office on Friday morning or evening?
If left after 3pm at the office, consider that Saturday.
If dropped in the box on the road after noon, consider that Saturday.
Since those mail takes 2 to 9 days (as it not guaranteed) Tuesday is the 2nd business day from Saturday. Look for it to arrive tomorrow on 5/4/2010. The latest it should arrive is Wednesday 5/12/2010. After that, it is most likely lost.
If the sender did not put enough postage, its going to be returned proving there was a return address and that is going to delay it.

How long is alcohol in your blood stream?
I had at least four beers about, 30 hours ago. I'm going to the doctor today and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to get my blood drawn.
Another fallowup question if anyone knows is if they are drawing it for medical purposes not relating to alcohol (most likely nutrient count,etc.), will they test for alcohol as well?How long is alcohol in your blood stream?
I say around or a little more over 24 hours and it depends what beer it was because some beers have more or less alcohol levels in them.How long is alcohol in your blood stream?
It takes your body around 1 hour to process 1 Unit of Alcohol, so that's about half a pint of beer or one 25 ml shot or 2/3 of a 125 ml glass of wine. That number is for people with a healthy liver. For others, it may take longer.
Alcohol is metabolized at the rate of .015 of blood alcohol concentration (BAC) every hour. 1 Thus a person with a very high BAC of .15 will have no measurable alcohol in the bloodstream after ten hours (.15 divided by .015 = 10). Here are some other examples:
BAC Level Metabolism Time in Hours
.10 6.66
.08 5.33
.05 3.33
.02 1.33
First question:
8 hours
Second question:
No
It depends on your height and weight along with factors such as how hydrated you are. The more water you drink, the quicker it will flush out your system. Alcohol affects literally every organ in your body. Your liver is processing the alcohol even as we speak and your kidneys are doing the dirty work of filtering- I highly doubt that ';they'; will test for alcohol unless you are on parole or otherwise have been informed that they are doing as such. Alcohol will affect nutrient content if that is what they are testing for-because alcohol affects your blood sugar so adversely, and will affect the absorbtion of sugars, protien in urine, etc etc. I don' t see why you are so worried. Unless of course your underage. Simply tell the phlebotomist ( the nurse that draws your blood) and the doctor you have had consumption of alcohol in the previous 48 hours. They will either give the go ahead or, reschedule. good luck, kid.

How to apply your make up to look younger?
any tips for applying make up and colours to use to create a more youthful appearnceHow to apply your make up to look younger?
Glow, and natural! (Going to try to keep this as cost efficient as possible!)
Make sure you have the PERFECT eyebrows. Eyebrows can make you look 10 years older, or 10 years younger. The perfect eyebrows for you, MAKE YOU. Go to an eyebrow specialist near you if you aren't sure about yours.
Get a smooth canvas... PRIME YOUR FACE! LOL. (It creates a smooth finish to your face)
since I'm thinking you're in the older age range I would definitely recommend this for a primer:
http://www.maccosmetics.ca/templates/pro鈥?/a>
Now, get a nice colour over your face, that also gives you the appearance of glowy, dewy skin. For foundation i recommend ';Revlon photo ready foundation'; now this foundation does have sparkles, but those sparkles give your face a nice glow. This product is about 10$
Now use your daily face powder to set the liquid foundation. (Liquids ALWAYS have to be set by something dry to make them stay) don't put a lot just a dust over your face to set it so you don't lose the glow.
Now I found highlight.... take any shimmery white eyeshadow you have in your house (white, beige, something close to your skintone) and put some on a small contour brush and sweep the shadow on the spots the sun would naturally hit your skin. (Top of your cheek bones, bridge of your nice, cupids bow, forhead, and chin) If you have an oily T-ZONE skin the forehead, and the bridge of your nose)
Now take a warm blush (NYC has these duel toned mineral blushes and that lovely, take a nice pinky gold one from there and sweep it on your cheeks lightly, but closer to your contour area, it will slim your face and give you nice colour) This would be about 3$
Now that your face is done let's switch to eyes!
Get a nice eye primer for your eyes... I always slurge on primers, and eyeliners for the goodness of the quality...
so for your eye primer I would def. go with this one:
http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jh鈥?/a>
Put that all over your lid till your brow bone and rub it in.
1) Put a matte beige shadow all over your lid to your brow bone (creates a smooth base)
2) put a shimmery champagne colour on your lid.
3) Take a nice bronze and put it in your crease and your outer cornor.
4) Take a blending brush, blend lightly, lightly.
5) take a nice bronzy eyeliner (black is too harsh) and put it on your upper lashline, extending it into a wing, making your eyes look longer, and wider and more awake
6) Take a white eyeliner and put it on your waterline and in your inner corner of your eye ( blend the inner cornor) That will expand your eyes to the biggest possible!
lips:
Stay neutral!
1) moisturize your lips, make sure they're smooth...
put a nice natural colour lipstick on...
and in the middle take a gloss and dab it in the middle of your lips.
There you go! Youthful makeup
p.s don't forget your curled lashes and mascara!How to apply your make up to look younger?
Try Covergirl on line. All you have to do is sign up load a photograph of yourself, and have fun trying on different looks. They also have live chat with a beauty consultant that can advise you on different styles of makeup.
To look younger, less is more.
To look OLDER, pack on the foundation.. it's sad, but once it settles into your laughing lines etc , it just emphasizes your age :'(
The best way too look younger is to try to keep all the colors as natural as possible. Go for a more natural look. Instead of using a eyeliner pencil use the shadow liner as it tends to look more smooth and natural as appose to the regular liner that looks sharp and darker. Neutral Colors is always a plus...so key is to LOOK AS NATURAL AS POSSIBLE!!
Mix a bit of highlighter into your foundation, this will reflect the light off of your face and ppl won't notice and fine lines or wrinkles. The best thing to do though is to work with your skin texture and your base.. there are lot's of serums (some quite expensive unfortunately) which plump out your skin (making it look plush and youthful and filling out any lines). Loreal Genefique (I think that's the name - it's in a black bottle) is very good for this. Then use a thick foundation which is meant for anti-aging and plumping out the skin. Lancome's range is very good! The plumping out of the skin is what will make you look younger. Microdermabrasion and chemical peelings are great anti aging treatments also if you want to go to the extreme. Drinking green tea and lots of water, not too much alcohol, lots of good fats (nuts, oily fish, olive oil, flax oil) are also great. Colonic irrigation is good because it cleans out your system really thoroughly and it's easier than detoxing :-p apparently the build up of mucus and other substances in the colon are responsible for aging us faster. Always make sure you have a sun factor of 20 on your face (from your moisturiser or your foundation) even in winter, do always moisturise day and night after cleansing your face. Do a weekly hydrating / anti aging face mask.. and avoid sunbeds like the plague. Good luck.

How does social inequality affect your life?
how does social inequality affect your life? do you experience privileges/ barriers to opportunities based on how you look or because of your culture( age, race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, disability)? and how do these privileges and barriers affect your social interactions?
plz help me answer this Q bz i need for my exam.How does social inequality affect your life?
Transsexuals face the major barrier of not being able to serve in the military as a result of policy. I at one point wanted to join, but realized I couldn't because of this. When others speak about their positive experiences in military (ex. the pay, the acquired skills, the experience) I sometimes feel distanced and depressed because I will never be able to have this positive experience.

Parents: I am going to re-ask this question (from months ago): how old was your child when...?
they walked with you in the grocery store (for example) and did not have to sit in the cart?
Last time I asked this lots of people said that they never used carts, and so I tried it, and I will never do that again. Even though he was being 'good' he still had to 'show' me everything; which meant he was touching items on the shelf. And when he promised not to touch the peanut butter, he then promptly went over to 'show' me jelly (for instance). It was a disaster. He is now condemned to the cart indefinitely.Parents: I am going to re-ask this question (from months ago): how old was your child when...?
lol. as soon as they could walk ... when they went with dad. which i found tremendously aggravating because of course then when they went with me they wanted to walk, too. it's all very well to take an hour at the grocery store if you only do it once every couple of months, but as the one who did all the rest of the shopping, i was annoyed that he let that cat out of the bag.
when i talked them back in, i tried to keep them there till sometime in the mid-2s (eta -- maybe it was 3s, actually). but actually at our grocery store they now have the carts that look like toy cars with steering wheels, and even my 6-year-old likes to drive those things.Parents: I am going to re-ask this question (from months ago): how old was your child when...?
Mine were between 3-4. Part of it was because of their sizes as I think 3-4 years old is definately big enough to walk on their own. Part of it was that the kids get tired out walking around.
I had rules, though. The first rule is that whichever kid was with me had to always have a hand on either my belt loop or the cart. No exceptions.
My daughter stopped going in the trolley just before her third birthday (only because my son was born and now have to use the trolley with the car seat holder thingys) she used to run round the shop touching everything until someone bowled her over with their trolley, that solved all my problems, she now walks sensibly and touches nothing.
Now I've discovered online shopping it's way easier then dragging two kids round ASDA
i think my kid was about 4. at that point, i could barely get him in those seats without taking off his legs.
My son is 3.5, and I still keep him in the grocery cart. I can get the shopping done much faster and with much less stress without having to keep one eye on a super-quick, super-sneaky toddler.
Every great once in a while, my husband goes shopping with me. That is the only time my son gets to walk with us in the store. And that's only because my husband can keep an eye on him while I shop.
my first two are close in age so i used a double pram and only shop when there was two parents, my son was about 20months when i started to let him walk because i didn't really have a choice as my husband got a job working away. so he would walk and i would put my 6months old in the cart
Oh god. I just had a flashback of when I let my 17-month-old push the ';shopper in training'; cart. What a mistake that was!! She's almost 20 months now and is not free to walk at the grocery store. She likes the carts that look like racecars and will ask to ride in them, at least, so although that cart seems to be 20 feet long and impossible to steer, it's a compromise I'm willing to make. :)
My 7 year old still likes to sit in the cart.
She would occasionally walk through the store but usually she would hold big sisters hand, so I didn't really didn't have that problem.
Confine that boy so you can shop in peace! :p
lol!
my six year old still begs to go in the buggy... and i wouldn't never attempt to make Timothy walk... and he's 4!... however our eldest son was good to walk around the age of 2. It really just depends on the kid... no two are alike!
power to the carts!!!
around 4-5
I put them in the cart...until they didnt fit anymore :) who in there right mind would ';never use carts'; and why would you listen to them? I used to do the groceries with my kids until the number of kids exeeded the places in the cart.
two up front... baby carrier on the top half (2 level carts)...by then there was one old enough to walk with me...
but now I do the grocery shopping at night....
My daughter is 3 and must sit in a cart. She'll run off otherwise and I'd have to chase her down. If I'm just going in to grab one item, I will hold her hand or let her hold the item to keep her occupied.
One time I let my husband be in charge of our daughter and the cart at Walmart while I was in another dept looking at something. He let her get out of the seat part and ride in the cart part. We were on our way to check out (him still pushing) and a lady walked out in front of us. He stopped the cart abruptly and our poor daughter had her hands on the front of the cart facing out and she flipped clear over the cart and landed on the floor! She was not hurt, but she cried b/c it scared her. That's the last time my husband was in charge of the cart let me tell you. He got a huge lecture.
She'll be 3 next month and I keep her in the cart still. I tried cartless and shed end up shopping and then I'd spend more time putting her purchases back than doing our shopping.
I believe I may have allowed my child to be at least 4 or 5 years of age. I think at this age they are able to participate in helping you shop versus being curious and pulling items off of the shelves. Also, it鈥檚 probably safe for them to remain in the cart. I guess it comes down to your child鈥檚 maturity level and your motherly intuition.
At 3 he was able to but even at 5 he still wants to ride instead of walk
dont know
First of all thank you posting the question. I am curious to see the answers. My son turned 3 in December,and I wish he would ride in a cart, he refuses, and has so since about the age of 2,he wants to be independent. I Absolutely hate going to any store, because he does the same thing, grabs stuff off the shelves and throws then in the basket, (by the time I check-out I don't what half of the stuff I have in my cart is...LOL), not only that he runs around and I have to chase him it's so embarrassing. If I do try to put him in the cart he screams like he's getting beat,and that's even worse.
It depends. My almost 3 y old wants to walk but once she starts running off, I'll put her back in the cart. My 4 and 7 y olds walk most of the time, if not they sit in the basket of the cart, not on the little seat
Four.
I'll be 41 in June and I still touch everything.
I have always let my kids walk with me as soon as they could walk.
We are quite the spectacle sometimes, me and 6 crazy kids. What the hell I like looking like a mormon
We could do it now at 24 months if I wanted to pull my hair out and take twice as long. I only let him out of the cart if we are picking up a few things and I only need a hand basket- not major shopping!!
With my daughter who is now 15 I think she was about 3. She got too big to sit in the seat part of the cart. I don't remember her doing anything crazy with me. She was pretty good. Now I have a 18 month old son. It should be interesting to see how he will be. He already likes to throw food out of the cart. Well in some of our grocery stores they have a play area for kids while you shop. I am not sure what age they begin. So I may do that when my son gets older.
lol@ dread head mama....';Power to the carts';....if I didn't use the carts i would spend all my time chasing him around the store instead of shopping..and mine is 2 1/2...hell i still use my stroller when i go to the mall...
I let my 2 1/2 year old walk sometimes, as long as he behaves himself. If he starts trying to run off or touches everything on the shelf, then I put him in the cart. He loves to walk, so for the most part he behaves himself. On the other hand, my 6 year old likes to ride in the back of the cart sometimes. I know, I break the rules. He didn't go through his terrible 2 phase until he hit 3, so he was in the cart until 3 1/2 or 4 because he wouldn't listen. You don't listen, you go in the cart.
Another trick that they like is to ride on the front of the cart. You know, hanging onto the push bar with their feet on the bottom shelf thing. (sorry, don't know the technical names of them) If my 2 1/2 year old is acting up, I'll sometimes try that before putting him in the cart. That way he's under control and he still feels like a big kid.
Last time I asked this lots of people said that they never used carts, and so I tried it, and I will never do that again. Even though he was being 'good' he still had to 'show' me everything; which meant he was touching items on the shelf.

She would occasionally walk through the store but usually she would hold big sisters hand, so I didn't really didn't have that problem.
Confine that boy so you can shop in peace! :p
lol!
my six year old still begs to go in the buggy... and i wouldn't never attempt to make Timothy walk... and he's 4!... however our eldest son was good to walk around the age of 2. It really just depends on the kid... no two are alike!
power to the carts!!!
around 4-5
I put them in the cart...until they didnt fit anymore :) who in there right mind would ';never use carts'; and why would you listen to them? I used to do the groceries with my kids until the number of kids exeeded the places in the cart.
two up front... baby carrier on the top half (2 level carts)...by then there was one old enough to walk with me...
but now I do the grocery shopping at night....
My daughter is 3 and must sit in a cart. She'll run off otherwise and I'd have to chase her down. If I'm just going in to grab one item, I will hold her hand or let her hold the item to keep her occupied.
One time I let my husband be in charge of our daughter and the cart at Walmart while I was in another dept looking at something. He let her get out of the seat part and ride in the cart part. We were on our way to check out (him still pushing) and a lady walked out in front of us. He stopped the cart abruptly and our poor daughter had her hands on the front of the cart facing out and she flipped clear over the cart and landed on the floor! She was not hurt, but she cried b/c it scared her. That's the last time my husband was in charge of the cart let me tell you. He got a huge lecture.
She'll be 3 next month and I keep her in the cart still. I tried cartless and shed end up shopping and then I'd spend more time putting her purchases back than doing our shopping.
I believe I may have allowed my child to be at least 4 or 5 years of age. I think at this age they are able to participate in helping you shop versus being curious and pulling items off of the shelves. Also, it鈥檚 probably safe for them to remain in the cart. I guess it comes down to your child鈥檚 maturity level and your motherly intuition.
At 3 he was able to but even at 5 he still wants to ride instead of walk
dont know
First of all thank you posting the question. I am curious to see the answers. My son turned 3 in December,and I wish he would ride in a cart, he refuses, and has so since about the age of 2,he wants to be independent. I Absolutely hate going to any store, because he does the same thing, grabs stuff off the shelves and throws then in the basket, (by the time I check-out I don't what half of the stuff I have in my cart is...LOL), not only that he runs around and I have to chase him it's so embarrassing. If I do try to put him in the cart he screams like he's getting beat,and that's even worse.
It depends. My almost 3 y old wants to walk but once she starts running off, I'll put her back in the cart. My 4 and 7 y olds walk most of the time, if not they sit in the basket of the cart, not on the little seat
Four.
I'll be 41 in June and I still touch everything.
I have always let my kids walk with me as soon as they could walk.
We are quite the spectacle sometimes, me and 6 crazy kids. What the hell I like looking like a mormon
We could do it now at 24 months if I wanted to pull my hair out and take twice as long. I only let him out of the cart if we are picking up a few things and I only need a hand basket- not major shopping!!
With my daughter who is now 15 I think she was about 3. She got too big to sit in the seat part of the cart. I don't remember her doing anything crazy with me. She was pretty good. Now I have a 18 month old son. It should be interesting to see how he will be. He already likes to throw food out of the cart. Well in some of our grocery stores they have a play area for kids while you shop. I am not sure what age they begin. So I may do that when my son gets older.
lol@ dread head mama....';Power to the carts';....if I didn't use the carts i would spend all my time chasing him around the store instead of shopping..and mine is 2 1/2...hell i still use my stroller when i go to the mall...
I let my 2 1/2 year old walk sometimes, as long as he behaves himself. If he starts trying to run off or touches everything on the shelf, then I put him in the cart. He loves to walk, so for the most part he behaves himself. On the other hand, my 6 year old likes to ride in the back of the cart sometimes. I know, I break the rules. He didn't go through his terrible 2 phase until he hit 3, so he was in the cart until 3 1/2 or 4 because he wouldn't listen. You don't listen, you go in the cart.
Another trick that they like is to ride on the front of the cart. You know, hanging onto the push bar with their feet on the bottom shelf thing. (sorry, don't know the technical names of them) If my 2 1/2 year old is acting up, I'll sometimes try that before putting him in the cart. That way he's under control and he still feels like a big kid.
