Thinking About Getting a Pet?

What is the first thing we usually think of when we think about getting a pet? Beyond the cute factor; hopefully, it’s something along the lines of what can we offer the pet in return when it’s giving us love. Consider the cost and upkeep of getting a furry friend.

Is your household one that is more than ready to put in a lot of time playing with an animal? Maybe a dog is a good fit. A household that wants a bit of extra company, but can’t handle much responsibility, might be better looking into getting a cat.

Cats and dogs are more prevalent, but many people enjoy the company of mice, rabbits, and even snakes or lizards or birds. All of which have different types and levels of care to maintain. Can your household afford the upkeep of a pet of any kind? Is your housing set up to handle a dog?

Dogs need lots of room to romp and jump around. Not having a yard for a dog is not a lose-lose, closed-case in owning a dog. It just means you have to get more creative on how to make sure the dog has plenty of ways to get exercise and play.

If you live in a rental, it’ll depend on what the specific rules are as far as having any kinds of pets go. Getting a pet will include a deposit if it has the potential to destroy things. Rules like this won't apply as much to animals kept in an enclosed area for parts of the day.

Owning your place takes some of the guesswork out of deposit fees. Renting doesn’t close the door on having a furry new member of the household. It does mean you have to work with your landlord or manager on having a pet, depending on what you want.

Covering Up the Gray Naturally

Sure, it has become a bit of a trend to sport gray streaks in hair professionally styled by a stylist. The same goes for people who like purple, red and other colors of the rainbow in their hair. But if you are not open to embracing naturally gray hair or having gray in your hair at all, you can also take care of that.

Before processed hair color was a thing, hair color was extracted from plants naturally staining the hair. This natural hair color has been around for a long time. It’s just that with the impatient, gotta have it done now culture, a lot of gray haired people don’t have the patience it takes to let this natural hair color do its thing.

It’s called Henna, and it stains your hair instead of coating your hair. You have to mix it with water and let it sit in your hair for a long time. Numerous people with gray hair have successfully covered up unwanted gray hair. Hair tends to look healthier than before they stained it.

One of the best parts of henna is it naturally conditions the hair as it stains it with color. The unpleasant part is it’s incredibly messy, and it takes a while to have the mix “set” to attain the best color. Mix the plant powder with warm water and stir to create an almost pudding-like consistency. Apply it to hair to get a base stain that gives your hair reddish to dark brown to black color.

Go heavy on the indigo henna if you want to go back to your natural black hair color. For hair more on the dark brown side, you combine indigo and regular henna. Mixing and playing around with the powder will not only chase the grays away; but give your hair an added depth.

Sample article about landscaping. 11/05/2014

If the thought of creating and maintaining a beautiful yard sounds overwhelming and time consuming, let the professionals do it. A freshly mowed lawn and trimmed bushes may be all you want done in your yard and professional landscapers handle the simplest jobs to more specific yard work requests.

During the fall landscapers get the leaves out of your yard, tidy up the flower beds, spruce up the flowers if you want and do anything specific you want done to your lawn. It is completely up to the customer. Some customers want hedges and trims done neatly around bushes, plants and trees while others just want it basically groomed.

You'll need more service in the summer since grass grows during the summer as well as blooming plants and trees. Landscapers come in once a week if you need grass mowing done often enough to keep your lawn looking great. Find pricing for landscapers in your area depending on what you need to have done in your yard.

Landscaping is done on apartments and business as well. To keep an apartment looking polished and a business looking professional, landscaping is essential to keep that appearance up. Even simple, yet groomed yards and grounds make a business, home, or apartment look very kept and make people more likely to keep business going. That is half the point of professional landscaping. Beside having a prideful place to work and live at.

Get prices on what needs to be done in the yard. Pick and choose what you really want to have done as far as service on your yard. Maybe you don't want a lot of detailed yard work, but just something more simple so you have less to keep up with. Landscapers are at your service what ever kind of yard work it may be.  

I have been doing another kind of writing lately called BMR - Build My Rank article posts. This writing isn't meant to be spectacular in any way, it is simply meant to make a website rank higher when someone does a Google search. I enjoy writing these and yet they are time consuming. I believe Build My Rank charges people $2.50 for a 150-word post. That includes having it loaded into BMR. If someone needs me to write and upload bmr article posts that are 150 words, I'll do the work for $1.75 per post. If it is just the article writing, but no uploading, I'll do this work for $1 per 150-words. These are simple, yet very time consuming articles that are supposed to be grammatically correct. If you don't have the patience to put in this work for your website, let me do it for you. If you are interested email me at longhairqueen@gmaildotcom.


I have one sample here:

If you have are having trouble financially and can not afford regular dental care, free dental is an option for you. You can’t get every last one of your dental needs taken care of for free if you have extensive dental problems, but some of them can be helped. Teeth cleanings, check-ups, and other services like extractions and root canals won’t be free but they’ll be given at a discount. Extractions alone run around $600-$700 depending on the dentist you go to. The dentist would probably charge you around $300-400 instead. That is still a lot when you don’t have it, but they offer payment plans. You’ll have to work out the payment plan with the dentist. The dentist has to be stable enough financially to help low-come patients, even though the dentist is still getting payment of some kind. Talk to a dentist about your situation. Or go to a dental clinic – that is possible too.
