If you don’t have long matches, you can light a piece of paper with a small match and use it to light the coals. Oven mitts.

In your opening sentence, start with their name, where they lived, and when they passed away. You don’t need to provide the cause of death if you don’t want to. Keep the sentence brief and to the point so you can expand the obituary in other places.  For example, you may write, “On the morning of June 10, 2019, John Smith of Atlanta died at the age of 80.” If you don’t want to use the word “died” because it feels too blunt, try using phrases such as “passed away” or “went to be with the Lord” if they’re religious. List the city where they were born, their parents, and important events that happened in your loved one’s life. You can either list events chronologically or you can put them in order of what you feel is the most important. Try to use as few words as possible so the obituary is concise.  For example, you may write, “John was born to Tom and Jill Smith in 1950. He received his bachelor’s degree in 1976 and managed John’s Restaurant in Atlanta for 22 years. In July 1980, he married Jane Doe, and together raised two children, Anna and Benjamin.” Create a list of major points in your loved one’s life on a separate sheet of paper so you have options to choose from. Avoid listing their mother’s maiden name or your loved one’s birthdate in the biography since identity thieves could steal the information and commit fraud. Including personal details will capture the spirit of your loved one so others understand what their life was like. Create a list of hobbies or activities they actively participated in and how it affected other people.  For example, you may say, “John was an avid car collector in spare time. When he wasn’t working at his restaurant, he would restore classic cars and show them at car shows. He was known for his good sense of humor and his contagious laughter among his friends.” You don’t need to include this section if you don’t have the space for it in your obituary. Mention close family members, such as immediate family and parents, by name. When you want to list extended family, use a collective phrase or list the specific number. For others that have passed away before your loved one, use the phrase “preceded in death by,” and use “survived by” before listing any relatives still living. For example, you may write, “John is preceded in death by his father, Tom, and his mother, Jill. He is survived by his wife, Jane, his 2 children, Anna and Benjamin, and several cousins, nieces, and nephews.” If you’re holding a public service, list the time and date along with the name of the funeral home. Make sure to list the specific details so others who were close to your loved one know where to go.  For example, you could write, “A public memorial service will be held at 11:30 AM on June 13th, 2019 at the Church of Christ.” You do not have to provide any information if there is not a public service.

The ingrown nail can grow into the soft skin on either the inner or outer corner of the nail. Ingrown fingernails are rarer than ingrown toenails; however, there are a few things that lead to them. Causes of ingrown fingernails include:  Injury Nail biting Cutting the fingernails too short or unevenly Fungal infections Having curved or thickened fingernails, which may be due to genetics, but can be a problem in older people Most ingrown fingernails will heal with home or standard medical treatment.

These tests are more sensitive than a urine test, but they are also meant to reflect current impairment. Blood and saliva tests are most often administered when you are suspected of using on the job or if you were involved in a car accident. Keep in mind that there is very little you can do in the event that you have to go for a blood test right away. The more saliva you can generate before a mouth swab test, the better! Eat a meal or a snack, drink a few cups of water, and swish with mouthwash or more water if you don’t have mouthwash on hand. This will help to get the THC out of your saliva so it won’t show up on a mouth swab test. These types of shampoos may help to reduce the amount of detectable drugs on your hair follicles. If you have some warning before the test, pick up a bottle of anti-dandruff or clarifying shampoo and wash your hair with it 2 to 3 times on the day of your test. Keep in mind that this is not foolproof. Hair follicle tests are meant to show whether you have been using substances over the last few months. If you have, then you might still fail a hair follicle test using this strategy.
