    A love of Crystals and Natural products

    I love crystals! I don't use them for their "energy" or anything, though it's cool if you do. I just simply have a fascination with them. Here is my crystal shelf: (I have a few small ones as well but this is most of what I have...)

    What pet would you get if you could?

    A dog. My dreams are simple. I've never lived in a place that allows dogs. :sigh:

    Should Christians watch Game of Thrones?

    I love this series a lot. I'm someone who tends to avoid entertainment which is very graphic in nature (violence, sex, etc), but when the storyline is good enough... I will watch. And I do. Game of Thrones is amazing.

    Fish Tanks?

    Hello all! I joined here a million years ago and I am back. This thread got me excited. ^_^ I used to be very much into aquariums when I was younger and the interest just kind of faded for a bit. I recently jumped right back in and now I've got a new 54 gallon corner bow-front, and a little 10...

    How to Pick Food for a Hiking Trip

    I always bring extra water in large bottles, so by the end of the day, even if it's an all day thing, we still haven't run out. It can get a bit heavy, but it's worth it. If there is one thing you don't want to be without even for a couple of hours, it's water. As for food, I will normally just...

    Carrying concealed while jogging?

    As a woman, it can sometimes get a bit scary when walking/jogging alone, no matter where you are. So I think that we should all have some sort of plan to defend ourselves. I always carry a phone, flashlight and either pocket knife or screwdriver if I'm out somewhere secluded. You never know. If...

    What do you like watching the most?

    Big, fluffy clouds on a clear, windy day... Sunset, sunrise... Birds!!!! And any time I'm near water, I can't help searching for fish (or anything else living down there). I could spend hours... in fact, I have. :D

    favorite season

    I chose Spring. There is just something lovely in the air (except for allergens!!!) at that time of year. It's a nice feeling, knowing all the flowers are about to bloom, and the birds and critters are having little ones. I love it. Also, the migration of songbirds in the Spring provides some...

    Birdwatching, Anyone?

    I'm a birder, as is my sister. We live close to Point Pelee and go there a few times each migration. Last year it was like a warbler wonderland. Got lots of great pics. Can't wait until May! :) Wow, the snowy owl pics are amazing. I haven't seen one that I can remember (other than maybe as a...

    Why should health insurance cover contraception?

    I think that the BC pill should be covered ONLY when it is needed for medical purposes. I have had to use it myself in the past for those reasons, for a little less than a year. I don't need it anymore. Other than that, there is no reason whatsoever that anyone should pay for it but the...

    Canada unveils new cyber monitoring rules

    I have absolutely no problem with this. I see it as a positive thing. Almost everything revolves around the internet these days.

    Last TV series on DVD that you watched?

    The X-Files, from start to finish. Perfection on television (not counting the last two seasons).

    The Walking Dead (possible spoilers)

    I absolutely love this show. I started watching it on Netflix in October, but I caught up on watchseries.eu :P Had no idea it existed and that I actually have AMC... so excited for its return on Sunday!! :D

    I feel so lonely.. (No reply needed..)

    Sigh. You are lonely, and yet you are not alone. So many are and/or have been where you are. I think you need to find someone to talk to. Some 'friends' don't know how to handle that much stress. I've seen how it can push people away. Look for someone, a professional, who knows how to help...

    anxiety while driving

    Ah, this is hard. I simply do not drive because of this. I don't have my anxiety under control, and the smallest thing can set me off. Group therapy will help!! It helped me when I did it. Like with anything else, the key is to stick to it. I didn't, and it got bad again... mistake on my part.
