As a two time gestational surrogate mother and an author, as well as having many friends in the surrogacy community, I often hear women ask this question. Herpes is very common today, and does not automatically disqualify you from becoming a surrogate mother.
All clinics will require potential gestational surrogate mothers to undergo extensive physical and psychological testing prior to...
As a Tupperware consultant, one of my favorite things to do is to hold fun-filled themed parties. My hostesses love it and so do the guests, causing them to spend more money and book more parties.
One of my favorite theme parties to have is a children's party. This is where a group of moms and their kids all come to one big Tupperware party.
Now, the way that your party is designed and...
I'm a stay at home mom, successfully living off just one income, my husband's. My children are 6 & 8 years old now, but it wasn't too long ago that they were in diapers.
And boy oh boy was that expensive! Until I hit the diaper mega-load and came across enough free diapers to keep their bottom's dry for life, with several hundred extra to spare.
How? It's all about using coupons to your...
There is a certain cult-like mentality with many MLM programs out there. Many uplines want you to eat, sleep, and breathe their message. They want your full, 100%, undivided attention on them exclusively.
These companies and uplines would have you believe that their product is the best in the world, and would make you feel like it's a mortal sin to diversify. But that is exactly what you...
I am a stay at home mother of two, an 8 year old boy, and a 6 year old girl. Both my kids are pretty adventurous, though, like most kids they can be a little picky when it comes to food.
On a recent camping adventure, we took along a supply of MREs, or Meals Ready to Eat. These are all-in-one military rations kits complete with main course, side dish, snack items, dessert, and water...
This is a very common question when it comes to gestational surrogacy. In fact, when I was just starting out my research into becoming a surrogate mother, this was the very first question I had.
I started to consider surrogacy five years after my last child was born. I had had a tubal ligation at her birth, and was under the mistaken impression that having my tubes tied was an automatic...
Its almost hurricane season again! And time to get our supplies ready in case we get hit again this year.
I have personally been through four hurricanes, three of which hit during a two-month period during 2004. I have stayed in my home for all four hurricanes and have learned a thing or two about the best supplies to have on hand.
Bar none, the best food supplies to have on hand are...
If you have been around the internet for more than a day, chances are you have seen information about taking online surveys for money. Chances are you have seen a lot of information about these paid surveys, including sites that will show you the best ones for a fee.
Are they legitimate? Can you make real money with online paid surveys? Is this an acceptable for of supplemental income?

There has been a lot of talk lately about surrogacy, with new TV shows and movies featuring surrogates. Much of what the media portrays is misleading. So why do women decide to become surrogate mothers?
If you asked the average person on the street, their response would probably be "for the money" but nothing could be further from the truth. While money does play a factor in most...
I've been involved with network marketing for some time now, and one thing that drives me absolutely up the wall is when a company or an upline encourages new distributors to formulate a "warm market contact list". This list is comprised of all of the family, friends, and acquaintances the new distributor has.
The newbie is then encouraged to go through the list and approach every person on...
