Tips For Better Sleep

. If you've been lying in bed but are beginning to fear you're not going to drop off, try some of these techniques: Count sheep or count backwards from 100 (one of my favorites) to stop yourself from thinking about the problems of yesterday or tomorrow; breathe deeply for awhile; or visualize some peaceful place.
. If you can't get to sleep after lying in bed for 30 minutes or more, get up for awhile. What to do? Try reading something incredibly boring.

Lonely Heart by Chymecindy

Sometimes I feel alone,
Tears on my eyes, falling down my face.
Wondering what have I done wrong?
Maybe I'm just missing you alone.

Sleepless nights if you’re not here,
By my side.
Can you feel me? Can you hear me?
I’m calling out your name.

Just close my eyes and dream,
Hold your hands up high,
Never let you go
I’m someone who will love you for sure.


Wish that you’re here by my side.
And heal my lonely heart.
Wish I will be with you forever,
And feel the love of my heart.

Are you dateable?

Do you say "my ex" more than 5 times a day?
What's done is done. If you want a potential partner to remain interested, don't give off signs that you're still emotionally committed. Allow yourself the freedom to be free. Sometimes it is easier to cling to the past than to face what is right in front of you. Don't let thoughts of an ex hold you back from enjoying your future.

destroyer pricing

Price dumping: the act of a manufacturer in one country exporting a product to another country at a price which is either below the price it charges in its home market or is below its costs of production.


Destroyer pricing: the practice of selling a product or service at a very low price, intending to drive competitors out of the market, or create barriers to entry for potential new competitors. If competitors or potential competitors cannot sustain equal or lower prices without losing money, they go out of business or choose not to enter the business. The predatory merchant then has fewer competitors or is even a de facto monopoly, and hypothetically could then raise prices above what the market would otherwise bear.
