In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This can help prevent chaffing and irritation when you begin using the pumice stone. Alternate between clockwise and counter-clockwise. Your strokes should be brisk, but you should apply very little pressure to the skin.  If your skin begins to feel irritated, or the process is painful in any way, stop immediately. Do not use an up-and-down or sawing motion, as this is more likely to cut your skin. Start at the edge of the area where you are removing hair. If you are using it on your arm, begin at your wrist. That way, if you stop partway through, you won't have random patches of missing hair.  Your skin may be red and slightly irritated from the process. Moisturizer will keep your skin from drying out and may soothe any irritation. Do not use a perfumed moisturizer, as this may further irritate the skin. Remove all the hair and dead skin from the pores of the stone so it will be ready for your next use. The pumice will exfoliate your skin, so you shouldn't have to worry about ingrown hairs. Your skin should also be very soft, since the stone removed the top layer of dead skin. You may not see results immediately. Removing hair by this method is gradual, and it may be days or weeks before you see a difference, depending on your skin and the type of hair you are removing. Wait 1-3 days before using the pumice stone again. Using this method too often can cause severe irritation or over-exfoliate your skin.
Summary: Lather soap, shower gel, baby oil, or other lubricant over the area you want to buff. Gently rub the pumice stone against your skin using small, circular motions. Continue this process until you have buffed the entire area. Rinse the buffed area with water and apply a mild moisturizer. Clean the pumice with warm, soapy water and a brush. Be patient.

Dogs are sensitive to hot water just like you are. Check the water temperature before you bathe your dog. It should be warm, but not hot. Water that’s too cold can give your dog a chill, which is especially dangerous for puppies. If you’re bathing in a sink or tub, fill it to about your dog’s knees with warm water.

One-sentence summary -- Get the temperature right.

Problem: Article: Make a list of all the weekly chores and who currently completes the task. In defining the mandatory tasks, you clear the first hurdle of your husband overlooking the tasks left undone. Moreover, identifying the exact chores can help both of you see what constitutes household work. Typical chores include:  Tidying all areas of the house Laundry (washing, ironing, folding and putting away)  Grocery shopping, plus other store visits  Cooking, washing the dishes  Bill payment and sorting  Yard work, gardening and maintenance Getting children to any extracurricular activities, medical visits, etc.  Pet care, including grooming, vet visits, feeding, etc. Schedule your date after a fun day or at the end of the work week––just avoid booking time immediately following an argument or when something else has your husband's attention. Grab some wine, get away from the kids (and the TV), and bring your list to the date.  Don’t broach the subject of helping around the house during an argument or tense situation; you’ll never get the help you need and deserve.  Avoid treating your husband like a child or being bossy. This will only end in arguments and nothing will change. Also avoid pulling the martyr routine; all that does is have you continue to burn internally while everyone simply acknowledges that you put up with it even if they have to tolerate mumbling. Reference the tasks he performs already and talk about how his contributions make a difference in how well the family functions. Then go on to explain that because you feel as if you're taking on more than you can handle, you’d love him to help out more.  Show him the list of tasks so that he can see the multitude of household chores in black and white. Tell him that his contributions would help maintain your energy levels and give your family more time to do things instead of waiting around while you finish the housework.  Avoid yelling at your husband. No one responds well to being yelled at. If he feels scolded it may cause him to retreat. Keeping a home is a shared endeavor. Don't be afraid to point out chores that you need extra help on.  If your husband is resistant, be patient. You may have to compromise at first. Pick two or three chores you really want him to do and work on those first. Let him know if you think certain chores could be done more effectively or quickly with his particular talents or temperament.
Summary:
Determine what needs to be done. Make a date with your husband to discuss the chores. Begin by telling your husband how much you appreciate what he already does around the house and for your family. Be assertive.
