Skype Webcam – What is the Best Webcam for Skype?

Posted by on · 1 Comment

I have been a Skype user for a long time now, keeping in contact with friends and family living in the U.S and abroad. One of my family members lives in Spain, and having Skype to at least instant message or chat while on different time zones has been great. Email only does so much, but Skype is better. While instant messaging with Skype helps keep me closely connected with family and friends who don’t live nearby, instant messaging on Skype isn’t enough for me anymore.

I’ve known about webcams for Skype but hadn’t taken the time to learn how to use Skype with a webcam, and I needed to find out more about choosing a good webcam to use with Skype. I’ve heard there is a way to use a digital camera with Skype too, but using Skype on my home computer with a webcam is all that matters to me at this point.

Dental Care, Dental Emergency Treatment & Taking Care of Your Teeth

Posted by on · 4 Comments

Although 72 percent of Americans have fillings, caps or crowns and one in six had a dental emergency during the past 12 months, most are not prepared to deal with dental care emergencies, according to a recent survey conducted by Majestic Drug Company, a leading provider of oral care products.

Interestingly, in the national survey of 1,000 Americans, those with a lower income (less then $35,000) were more likely to have had a dental emergency in the past 12 months (vs. 14 percent of those who make $100,000 or more).

Of those who had a dental emergency, 23 percent involved a loose crown or cap, 10 percent involved a lost filling, while 72 percent said their dental emergency involved something else.

Do Women Want Sex? Reasons Why Women Don’t Want to Have Sex

Posted by on · 10 Comments

Ever since I published the 30 Day Sex Challenge, I’ve heard from quite a few women who say they don’t want to have sex with their husbands, while offering a large number of reasons why they don’t want to have sex. I’ve also heard from a number of men who want more sex with their wife but can’t seem to figure out why the sex isn’t happening as frequently as these guys would like. “Is having sex once every 3-9 months normal?”, one husband asked.

“I don’t want to have sex” and “she doesn’t want to have sex” were the common subject titles from women and men who are reporting sexual dysfunction and low libido in their marriages. Most, if not all, were asking “is it normal” to not want to have sex very often (or at all), and what possible reasons there might be for their wives to not be interested in having sex. They also wanted to know how often married couples are “supposed to have sex” to keep the fire alive in their marriage, and some wives reported their husbands “weren’t doing it right”. Ouch.

It came as somewhat of a surprise to me that some women said their husbands don’t know how to please a woman in bed and can’t bring her to orgasm, but these same women admit to never (ever) telling or showing their husbands what they want or need in bed to be completely satisfied sexually. Really? Come on, ladies, it works both ways. Men aren’t mind readers and most men DO want to please their wives in bed, but if you have never talked with your husband about your personal desires or sexual needs, communication in your marriage is a problem to work on. Today.

How I Met My Husband – Where Did You Meet Your Husband/Wife?

Posted by on · 17 Comments

How and where did you meet your husband, wife, boyfriend or girlfriend? When I tell people how I met my husband, I am sometimes amazed by the shocked expression on their faces, especially when I tell them that I met my husband on an online dating website.

Online dating has been around for so many years now that it seems odd that hearing that I met my husband on an online dating site would still create reactions of disbelief and shock. What is so bad about meeting and dating someone you met online? What is the big deal about online dating?

Baby boomer online dating, commonly referred to as online dating after 40 or 50 years of age, is on the increase according to statistical reports. I was happily amused to discover so many senior online dating sites that cater to single seniors seeking companionship, activity partners, pen pals or their soulmate for seniors living in the USA, Canada, England, Australia, South America, Europe and Asia.

I was curious to find out what the statistics were for online dating to see how many success stories there are of couples who met online that actually lead to marriage, but I was unable to locate trustworthy and reliable results of any real studies done. Then again, a successful online relationship doesn’t have to result in marriage, especially if adult men and women are only looking for friendship and not long-term relationships.

Thanksgiving Prayer

“Loving Merciful God, We give You thanks for the creation of this world; it is a wonder and a blessing which should give us pause to offer You thanks. Creator, we are blessed by such little-big things as the air we breathe and the water we drink, these little-big things that fill our lives with the elements of living, but are commonly overlooked for we do not always stop to think about the wonders of the world which are working. We know that in Your time and space all will been done to fulfill Your glory, Your plans for us. We are reminded by Your Word in the Scripture 1Thessalonians 5:18 to be joyful always, pray continually, and give thanks in all things for this was Your will for us in Christ Jesus.
