My daughter did not make the volleyball team today:( I told her, "Don't worry Honey there are other sports in the sea..But if you love this one..Keep on Playin!" Right? Sure, maybe she can play on a local church league or at a boys and girls club, or practice in the gym after school -- maybe even get someone who's on the team this year to work with her as she practices. If it's a sport she really likes, and she practices a lot, she'll improve enough to make the team next year.

I've repeatedly heard "It's more expensive to repair something that to just trash the broken item and buy a new one." Why is that? Shouldn't it be less expensive to repair something? Because we live in a throw-away society. There are no repairmen to fix things like they used to. In years past, if your TV, for example, went out, you had it repaired, because a TV was a major purchase. Now, most people just buy a new one because of the inconvenience of finding someone to repair theirs, driving it to a shop, and being without it for the time the repair takes.

It doesn't matter if you put it upstairs or downstairs, just so the kitten knows where it is and has easy access to it. My concern with putting it downstairs would be that if a door leading to the basement got shut it would keep the kitten from getting to it's box. Good luck with your kitten and have fun!!!

My Grandmother passed away some time ago, before I even met her, and my mom, rather then grieving over her mothers death seems to take out her rage and frustration out in short bursts.

Some may tend to be indifferent, others may get angry, some may simply be distraught or depressed, others run the range of emotions, going back and forth between them. Just try to understand your mother's circumstances....

Is it hard taking blood pressure and vital signs the old way? We were doing BP's and all in nursing class and i was just having a hard time. Because once we start clinicals we can get in trouble if we read the info and write it wrong. It's not hard, it just takes practice. I was a Nurses's Aide for awhile during college, and it took me awhile to get the hang of BP and pulse. Just keep practicing and you'll get it, I'm certain!

It depends on several factors -- the company, the kind of car you're driving, the amount of coverage you want, the age of the driver, your driving record, the age of the car and safety features, how far you drive each day, etc. To give you a ball-park figure, though, anywhere from $25 up to $80, probably.

Not nearly as many as in big cities, but it's too many, nonetheless. I wish I could help them...

If I have two cats that I have to give away and I send them to an animal rescue shelter will that shelter find a home for them or put them to sleep?

Your best bet, of course, it to try to find a home for them yourself, instead of taking them to a shelter. I've seen so many animals become depressed and despondent having to stay in cages...

Imagine that we're going to play a round of golf. At the 1st tee, I turn to you and ask "do you want to play £1 per hole, and double up every hole?" Would you accept? No, because I'm not a golfer, and I know I'd lose big-time. But, if you'll let me pair my boss up with you and make the same bet, I'd take you up on it. He's a professional-level golfer, who nearly always golfs par or under-par rounds. So, I'd like to make that wager with you. I could stand to make a truck-load of money off of you that way. Doubling each hole...

Have you ever noticed that a lot of plus size women have fake nails? why is this/ Because it's one feature that they can "dress up" and be proud of, regardless of their weight or size. Also, because if you're plus size, you're going to have heavy hands,which will make your fingers appear shorter. Artificial nails will add length to the appearance, making your fingers look longer and therefore your hands thinner.

HerI am looking online for some way to make a cd and send it to radio stations...can someone help me, I can sing and somewhat play the piano, and I can learn the guitar.....any ideas??? :( My best advice is find a local recording studio. Hire a band and have them play and you concentrate on singing. Send the disk to your local stations and you might get some regional airplay. Most likely, though, most of your other stations won't play it because they have playlists that they stick to, based on Top-40 hits, Billboard hits, etc, in their genre. You really need a record...

I have black cats crossing my path all the time -- of course 8 of them are my own (four solid black, and four black and white). I think, in your case, it's just something you're aware of, so you notice it more. I also think poor black cats get a bad wrap. Mine are all little sweethearts -- nothing evil or mean about them.

Why do some pet owners insist on feeding their pets dangerous things like onion and garlic even though veterinarians warn against it, there are studies proving that it's dangerous and there's documented cases of animals dying after ingesting it?

What's the point in someone helping me if it's going to cause me extra work in the long run because I have to go back and correct what he or she didn't do or did poorly.

I am having a problem with my 'best friend'. We have been the best of friends for 11 years. After we returned from our FL vacation, we haven't talked at all. In fact, she has been cold to me. We had a great time on vacation. What is up? What should I do? Definitely talk and ask if you've done something wrong. There may have been something she took offense to that was merely a miscommunication. But, you won't know unless you talk to her. If you are uncomfortable asking her, drop her a line and let her know you're concerned about her and it appears there's something wrong. As if you've offended her in anyway, and...

Do you think doing the minimum is enough? It's seems to me when you go beyond your duty most times it goes unappreciated and unnoticed, when you do no more than you supposed to do it all works out. I know what you mean -- I was always taught to give 110% to anything that I did, and I have always done that -- putting in twice the hours and effort than anyone else and receive no added perks or benefits. . . The people who just barely slide by receive the same appreciation and the same compensation as I do, and I always go above and beyond.

I have rottweiler who is housebroken but is an outside dog. I want to make her an inside dog. I have put tons of flea treaments on her and nothing works. How can I keep her inside but let her play outside and keep fleas off her and in my home? Treat everything -- bomb or spray your house for fleas, treat your dog (flea shampoo or flea dip first, then Frontline or Advantage), treat your yard, too, with spray or granules. This should allow your dog to be both indoor and outdoor without fleas being a problem. Make sure, if you have other pets, they are treated for fleas, too.

Do you have what it takes to be someone's "Rock"? Well, I've had that role for several people in the past, so I do believe I have what it takes. However, I have someone to whom I can vent, so that helps me continue to help others.

Is there a standard joke where you work that you hear so often you're sick of it? Every passenger who climbs on my bus asks me if I've run over someone yet today, and I always laugh even though I've heard it all day long. You? I work in an all-you-can-eat restaurant. People always come in and say, "I'll have the buffet" -- but they pronounce it "buff-it", like Jimmy Buffet, and they think it's so cute. Or, they'll say, "One Buff-it please -- one Jimmy Buffet." It gets so old. . . .

Answer to:
A man has your child held at gun point. For whatever reason, he says you have to kill yourself, or he'll kill your kid. Biblically, if you kill yourself, do you still go to Hell? I would say a quick prayer asking for forgiveness of the act I was about to commit, and would do so knowing that I wouldn't be sentenced to a life in Hell because by taking my own life I was sparing the life of my child.

Answer to:
Are you an over-apologizer? Yes, I get told that all the time. I apologize for everything. I apologized to a group that came to our show today for the rain -- like that was somehow my fault -- but I apologized anyway.

Answer to:
Would you do a favor for a friend/family member even if you're quite positive that they wouldn't do the same for you? I certainly would -- and do. I always like to think that if I need something, someone will be there to help me. Maybe not the person I'm helping, but someone. And, helping someone should be just about that -- HELPING. It shouldn't be about what you'll get in return.

Does my 1st. cousin stepbrother have any relation with me? Not any real relationship, but many families don't acknowledge a difference in siblings or step-siblings, so some families would automatically consider him your cousin. Just depends on how your family looks at this. . .

If u loss ur baby when your 5 months pregnant do u still have ta gave brith 2 it Unfortunately, yes, you do. It is very much a formed human being and still has to pass through the birth canal. It's an extremely difficult and emotional experience, whether the doctor takes it through surgery (d&c) or lets the process happen naturally. I know this from experience and feel for anyone who has to go through this.

As you're traveling, what's your regular tourist routine? (Do you pick up brochures, buy souvenirs, keep a journal to help you remember what you saw, thought or felt), take photos, update your blog, what?) Usually pick up a few souvenirs (especially postcards), pick up some brochures, take a few pictures, and try to soak of all of the atmosphere I can while I'm there.

What do you think of Bill Cosby as a stand-up comedian & what of this comic bit about grandparents in particular? I love Bill Cosby's comedy. I've been fortunate enough to see his live performance twice. He's wonderfully funny, but it's even better if you can sit close enough to see his facial expressions, as that is half of his routine.

When will my cat will give birth When she's ready and no sooner. Watch her -- she'll start "nesting" (looking for a place to have her kittens). Also her milk will come in -- you'll notice that, too. Gestation period for cats is approximately 63 days, so if you know when she was bred, that should help. Good luck. Mine just had NINE kittens.

Who would like to join me in sending their best wishes to all those people in the path of Hurricane Gustav? They are in my thoughts and prayers.

I want my mother to move in with my wife & I. My mother & 15 year old little brother could use the nicer home. They currently live in a farm house built in the 40's. We could use the extra money from her rent. How do I convince my wife to allow this? Sit down and make a list of all the Pro's and Cons to having your mother and brother move in. Make the extra money the first think on your Pros list. Other Pros could be having a built in baby-sitter (if you have kids), having help with the house-cleaning and yard work, less money spent on gas driving to see her, etc. If your mother and your wife get along, she'll probably go for...

Who would join me in congratulating all those people on Answerbag who donate blood? Congratulations and a big, big Thank you for all who give blood. It's something I should do more often, but I just never seem to think of it. Thank you, all of you, who take your time to do such a caring deed!

Answer to:
Some think congrats questions are nothing but point grabbers. When someone asked if anyone would like to congratulate me I felt good about being noticed. Should they stay or go? I have no problem with the Congratulations questions, as long as they are for the higher levels. I actually enjoy congratulating fellower AB'ers who reach higher ranks. I don't care for the ones who are asking for congratulations for themselves -- that seems a little self absorbed to me.

My in-laws favor a specific grandchild over my 3 children. Should I let this bother me?

Also, you said that Katy's parents are always at the bar? Are they trying to make up for some of the time, etc. that Katy's parents don't give her? My aunt and uncle...

My husband (then BF) & I started dating working 2gether. Things moved quickly, I got pregnant (lost it) and my mom tried to keep us apart. We eloped, he got deployed. My family caused constant problems. Now we're divorcing. Did we ever have a chance? Wow, we could be living parallel lives -- That sounds so very much like what happened to me. It sounds to me like your marriage did not stand much of a chance -- with you having to sneak around to see each other, sneak to get married, family against it, etc. Add to that the extra stress of losing a baby that early in your relationship, and his deployment and that makes it almost too much for...

I found out yesterday that I guy I worked with for 3 years is the cousin of Brett Favre. Is it wrong that this doesn't impress me at all? Not wrong at all -- First of all, you know Brett's cousin, not Brett. Secondly, famous or not, they are all people, just like the rest of us. Being famous doesn't necessarily make anyone any better than any of of us. BTW, ask the guy you work with how Brandy, Brett's sister, is? She works with one of my vendors, so I talk to her occasionally.
