seriously the best way you can do that is literally wear heels all the time, even when you are just walking around the house. My auntie did this and now she is so comfy in heels, they never ever hurt her and she can walk perfectly in them...
get some ';party fee';t to begin with so your not being too harsh on your feet..put them in the souls of your shoes, or just wear loads of pairs of socks to wear the shoes out a bit if they are new. and also try walking about in as many different high heeled shoes as you possibly can...starting off With smaller heels working your way up...that might be easier
good luck :)
xxxxxxxxxxWhat is the best advice for learning how to walk in heels and do it right with confidence?
start with medium height heels, and just practice
it'll come to you more quickly than you might supposeWhat is the best advice for learning how to walk in heels and do it right with confidence?
Put one foot in front of the other. It will teach you poise.
practice...try to walk around your house first...
Join a drag contest
practice wearing them around the house for a while

Need advice! how can i get my cat to stop urinating in the same place? this has been infrequent lately.?
i have tried nature's miracle, baking soda, i clean the carpet immediately, and he STILL keeps going. it's either during the night or when we're gone. i don't think it's a uti because it is in one place and it has been since my husband moved in after we married a few weeks ago. i think it's a territorial issue. please help my sanity!!! :)Need advice! how can i get my cat to stop urinating in the same place? this has been infrequent lately.?
The cat can still smell his scent in the same spot even though you cleaned it really well. the odor is still in the carpet padding. If you have a deep vac carpet cleaner try that or rent one, that worked for me, it got the odor out of the padding which I could not get to with regular cleaning products.Need advice! how can i get my cat to stop urinating in the same place? this has been infrequent lately.?
try changing what u clean it with the smell of some cleaning things make the cat want to pee there
If the cat is a male he is ';marking'; so if you have him neutered by your vet he should stop.
These problems are difficult to solve. One method that I've used is to put down a bunch of aluminum foil so that cat can't get near the spot without stepping on it. They don't like walking on it.
Is your cat fixed? Neutering may help also.
Sounds like your cat is trying to tell you something...hehe
Hmmm...if Nature's Miracle didn't work-then you might need to just cover the spot. Hopefully it's in a convenient place to do that.
get this no-go house breaking aid. we have it and it works wonderful. all you do is spray it on the spot that your dog is going and just walk away from it and repeat it when your dog dose it again then put his nose in it and say no no or bad dog then put him or her outside for a little while then go back to the spot and spray then let your dog in.
get him nutered
get your cat to the vet to be sure it isn't a uti. you may have to retrain your cat to use the litterbox by confining him to the bathroom or a small room with his litterbox and some water.
at least your cat isn't peeing on your husband
Clean the litterbox! Really...I have a cat and she has no problem using the litter box. I try to clean mine out every night, or every other night. Your cat will be much happier, and you will too. =)
I know this is wierd but my male cat spayed the carpet once. I got mad and the only thing that was close was wd40 so I sprayed it at him (not on him) and than the carpet. Never happend again. So try maybe something with a not so natural smell.
Put a litter box in that spot ?!?
Maybe getting it fixed might help if it is not fixed.
I sprayed nature's miracle on it, then set something large on the spot so my cat couldn't get to it, and shut him in a room with his litter box for a few nights. He got back into the habit of using his litterbox in a few days.
i had the same problem with my cat , behavior problem, in fact today she topped all of her behavior problems...i will write a question on it, but i was told by the vet to put them in the bathroom and shut her in with the litterbox until she knows where to go.....

Babysitting Tips
My Rates
1-2 kids ~ $5.00/hour
Each additional child ~ $1.25/hour
*When you are babysitting a baby under 10 months old, you should ask to be paid a bit more than your regular charge, since you must give more attention, change the baby, feed the baby, and put the baby to bed.
Tips for babysitting
(ages 10monts- 1 year)
Games you can play: Toys that make noise, big blocks, pat-a-cake, and you can watch movies.
*Safety Tips:
* Always check for toys for loose or broken parts and sharp edges.
* Watch kids carefully during play. They may choose toys that are inappropriate for their age, especially if there is an older brother or sister in the house.
* Watch kids who are playing together.
Food (babies)
* Older babies usually eat solid foods as well as take a bottle.
* Ask the parents if the baby gets the bottle or the food first.
* Babies are messy eaters and need a bib.
* Buckle baby in high chair before feeding.
* Give the baby only the food the parents suggest and only as much as they suggest.
* Put a small amount of food on a spoon and place it well back on the baby鈥檚 tongue so he/she won鈥檛 spit it out.
2-3 years old
Games:
Ride-on-toys, push-pull toys, water toys, picture books, simple puzzles, hide and go seek, rolling and catching ball, movies or watching t.v.
Food
Toddlers usually have 3 meals a day, with morning, afternoon, and bedtime snacks.
* At this age, kids will be trying new foods, but the foods may still have to be mashed or chopped.
4-5 years old
Games:
Puppets, costumes, masks, play dishes, crayons and paper, arts and crafts, moves, dress-up, 1-spy, playing store, tricycles, wagons, skipping ropes, hula-hoops, roller skating, Barbie鈥檚, toy trucks, and movies.
Pre-schoolers foods
* Give the child the meals and snacks the parents have left.
* Give the child small servings.
* Don鈥檛 rush the child who is eating and don鈥檛 force him/her to eat everything on his/her plate.
* Get the older pre-schooler to help you set the table or prepare the meal or snack.
* If you have to prepare the meal, choose at least one serving from the four food groups in Canada鈥檚 Food Guide.
Safety Tips
To reduce choking
* Cut smooth or round foods into smaller pieces lengthwise so they won鈥檛 get caught in the child鈥檚 windpipe. Change the round shape of foods such as sausages, wieners, and grapes by cutting in half.
* Have the toddler sit quietly when eating. Running, laughing, or walking can cause choking while eating.
IF parents have asked you to prepare a meal, cook safely
* Know how to turn the stove or appliance on and off.
* Keep pot handles turned toward the back of the stove.
* Don鈥檛 overheat or leave cooking fats unattended.
4-5 years old
Games:
Puppets, costumes, masks, play dishes, crayons and paper, arts and crafts, moves, dress-up, 1-spy, playing store, tricycles, wagons, skipping ropes, hula-hoops, roller skating, Barbie鈥檚, toy trucks, and movies.
Getting along with kids
Crying
If the baby starts to cry, try giving her a bottle, check to see if her diaper is too tight, or dirty, and try to hold him/her. Call the parents if the baby continues to cry longer than 15-20 minutes.
Colic
If the baby is crying in his crib, his tummy is tense and his knees are drawn up, rub his back or tummy gently, pick him up and walk around, or put him/her in the carrier and rock him back and forth.
Teething
If the baby鈥檚 cheeks are bright red, and is crying, and chewing his/her blanket, give her/him a teething ring, give a teething biscuit(either or), try soothing her by rubbing her back, carry her around the house and speak to her softly, call the parents if you can鈥檛 settle her down.
Shyness
IF the child starts to cry when the parents leave, speak to her softly and soothingly, tell her that her parents will be home soon. Approach her gently and quietly.
Temper Tantrums
If the child is throwing a fit and starts screaming, make sure he鈥檚 not close to the furniture or stairwell, and let him tire himself out.
Refuses to go to sleep
If the child doesn鈥檛 go to bed at her bedtime, leave her alone, she will eventually go to bed when she is ready, make sure you follow up her bedtime routine, read her and extra story, and give her a back rub.
Night Mares
If the child is having a nightmare, make sure that everything is ok, stay with her for a while, and leave the light on when you put her back to bed.
Bedwetting
If the child wets the bed, help her clean it up, change her bed, and reassure to him that its ok.
** Don鈥檛 ever say or do anything to embarrasse the child who wets the bed.
Refuses to share toys
If the child grabs a toy from her younger sister or brother, tell her you know its her toy, but her little sister wants to play with it too, try to interest both kids in a different activity.
Fighting
If the children start to fight, leave them alone, they can work it out themselves, separate them afterwards if it doesn鈥檛 end, don鈥檛 take sides, and try to interest both kids in a different activities.
Power Struggles
IF the child is testing you and won鈥檛 do anything you ask her to do, try to get her on your side, ask her to show you her favourite game and give her as much guidance as you can, and pay attention to her.
** Older kids may resent having a babysitter because they think they can look after themselves. Be understanding but FIRM.
Finding Work
To find work when you're getting started, ask around. Maybe your neighbours or others you know have heard of sitting jobs. When looking for work, be careful:
*Don't ever advertise. Anyone could take your name or number. Not all people have good intentions
* Don't sit for people you don't know or who haven't been recommended. Babysitting for strangers you don't know could be risky if you know nothing about them.
*Meet with family before agreeing to babysit for them. Even if you are referred by someone you know, you may not like the situation in the home or attitude of the parents, or you may just not feel right about it. If so, don't take the job.I would like advice on how to start babysitting.?
For one..change your screen name..
Babysit for your friends and relatives, then use them as references to branch out. Put up ads at laundromats, coffee shops, the local library and the grocery store bulletin board.
Make sure you have LOTS of patience.
Good luck!
First of all u need a baby!
I've taken classes at the red cross, the YMCA, and the library
they posted something on-line for me but we also made fliers and if you are really serious about babysitting you could make business cards and tell your friends and family to spread the wordeye makeup remover

I'm going to Costa Rica!!! Any advice on how to have the best time there?
I'll be going to Costa Rica soon and will stay there for two weeks. What can you tell me about the food, people, security there? I heard that it is rainy season right now, is that true?
Also, I'm thinking about skydiving there but is it safe to skydive in a developing country? Thank you!!!I'm going to Costa Rica!!! Any advice on how to have the best time there?
Its nice if you can go to some beaches and you can get some surf lessons really cheap too from local people at beaches and its nice if you can check out a volcano and the cloud forest and just have fun. Below are some links that can help you do some research for planning your trip and the food here for breakfast its pretty simple but really good rice with black beans with eggs and coffee, really good and lunch and dinner is similar to other Latin foods but not spicy. The people are really nice most people here are catholic or Christians so they are pretty nice, they listen to all types of music. The part that is a little dangerous to walk alone at night is the capitol San Jose the city you don't want to walk alone in some parts of the city at night but in general its a very safe country, millions of visitors come every year and have a great time. Its a democratic country like the states and there is no military no wars no guerrillas so its a very safe place.

Unfortunately yes it is rainy season but is doesn't mean you can't have a great time. Try to do most of your activities in the morning there is less chance of rain. For example if your going to Arenal the best time to see the volcano this time of the year is early morning 6ish. On the golden coast, Guanacaste, it usually doesn't rain on the beach till well in the afternoon.And if your planning on driving take extra precautions the roads aren't like the ones here in the States.
Food is simple but good. Typical breakfast includes Pinto (rice and beans) and fried eggs.... sounds weird but its good. Costa Rica offers some of the best coffee so don't miss out and I love there natural juices... try something new like Cas, Mora or Maracuya. The Caribbean side offers a lot of tasty flavorful food even there rice and beans has a twist to it with coconut flavor and spice.
Most people are great, but remember there is a little of everything in every country. But for the most part their Pura Vida! (which means pure life, very common phrase) Depends on where you go you might find that they lack service.... I don't think they've got the costumer service part down yet.
I always feel safe in Costa Rica. But I always steer clear of downtown San Jose, especially at night. Just take the normal precaution you would take in any place.... try not to look so touristy either.
Ummm I don't know anything about the skydiving but I haven't heard of any accidents yet.
Hope you have fun and enjoy the trip!

The part that is a little dangerous to walk alone at night is the capitol San Jose the city you don't want to walk alone in some parts of the city at night but in general its a very safe country, millions of visitors come every year and have a great time. Its a democratic country like the states and there is no military no wars no guerrillas so its a very safe place.
Below are some links that can help you do some research, good luck, have fun.I'm going to Costa Rica!!! Any advice on how to have the best time there?
Unfortunately yes it is rainy season but is doesn't mean you can't have a great time. Try to do most of your activities in the morning there is less chance of rain. For example if your going to Arenal the best time to see the volcano this time of the year is early morning 6ish. On the golden coast, Guanacaste, it usually doesn't rain on the beach till well in the afternoon.And if your planning on driving take extra precautions the roads aren't like the ones here in the States.
Food is simple but good. Typical breakfast includes Pinto (rice and beans) and fried eggs.... sounds weird but its good. Costa Rica offers some of the best coffee so don't miss out and I love there natural juices... try something new like Cas, Mora or Maracuya. The Caribbean side offers a lot of tasty flavorful food even there rice and beans has a twist to it with coconut flavor and spice.
Most people are great, but remember there is a little of everything in every country. But for the most part their Pura Vida! (which means pure life, very common phrase) Depends on where you go you might find that they lack service.... I don't think they've got the costumer service part down yet.
I always feel safe in Costa Rica. But I always steer clear of downtown San Jose, especially at night. Just take the normal precaution you would take in any place.... try not to look so touristy either.
Ummm I don't know anything about the skydiving but I haven't heard of any accidents yet.
Hope you have fun and enjoy the trip!

I have sinus congestion and I have to sing in 3 hours... Any advice how to clear things up?
i agree.....steam inhalation. worked a treat for me.I have sinus congestion and I have to sing in 3 hours... Any advice how to clear things up?
Use Eucalyptus Oil in steam inhalation. Breath and inhale the aromatic flavor herbs into your lung of the oil. Mix the oil in a hot temperature water and inhale the vapor of the steam. Do it every morning and before sleep until the congestion is relief. :). You can try it before you sing 3 hours early. :).
