My wedding is really small because both my fiance and I keep to ourselves a lot. We tend to mix in small groups at a time only. We have invited 32 adults to our wedding and my head is spinning about it. In the past when there have been too many people around I have excused myself and taken off...

My mother has always opposed anything I do, say etc, It is because I am artistic and creative and she thinks that I "always have to do something different". I think she thinks it is deliberate, but it is actually who I am. I am not that different form most people really, but I have a really wild...

My husband and I run a small business. He repairs industrial machines and has over 400 clients he will service. He may only get to some customers once per year and then others several times per year. When he invoices he fills out the worksheet with repairs and the final cost on the spot and...

I do work from home and my neighbour is really a pest. When her kids are screaming out the backyard I move to my front office to get away. Every other day she arrives home from somewhere and sits in her car with the kids and the engine running for half an hour (yes I am not kidding) whilst they...

We have some great friends but the recession has hit them hard. He lost his job and has been doing bit work for nearly a year. We have been giving him work where we can to help them out and there is no animosity because of this. The problem is that financially our circumstances have changed and...
