As a tip, put a grease fighting dish washing soap in the tub and sink drains when you clean your bathroom, or as a once a week regimen. Let it suds up and drain slowly.
This will help reduce that gross, gunky, buildup in those pipes with out having to use harsh chemicals to break down a clog all the time.

Problem: I have been having problems with my assignments in class. It’s like I forget my elementary basics when it comes to writing. You might laugh but, I blame it on my texting making me dumb.
Tip from Tia: The things we didn’t have to worry about, only a short decade ago. Is Auto Correct is Dumbing Us Down? (see what I did there, ha!)
The truth is, auto correct is dumbing us down. Writing is a skill we learned. And just like any skill, if you don’t use it; you lose it. Sadly, it has become easier and acceptable to have auto correct on our reliable devices. It saves us time and people have gotten good at deciphering what we mean to say.
It’s been an age old question. Who is the better writer women or men?
Whether it be a man or woman writing, write with skill and intent. Both men and women have strong points in writing.
Some interesting findings from the infographic at Grammarly showed
    Women are almost twice as likely than men to spend time on character development.
    Men are more likely to write short and straightforward sentences.
Just like any skill, you must remember to practice. And, when it comes to class assignments and the workforce, proper grammar and spelling is thought to reflect your intelligence. I found It’s acceptable and helpful to use resources like spell check and sites like Grammarly.
The brain is a muscle. Remember to exercise it!

Hi Tia, my mom says I can’t chew gum anymore, because I keep getting it in my hair, and she has to cut it out, and I cry. She says there is something to get gum out of my hair, but she doesn’t remember. What is it? Kelly, 6 and Mom
Tip from Tia:
I understand entirely. It takes a creative individual to get their own gum stuck in their own hair. I was a champ at doing that myself when I was your age. Tell your mom it’s alright; Tia can help. And, the best part is your mom can make you do this by yourself.
The best way to get gum out of hair is by using peanut butter. First, get the gum covered section by itself. Then, you want to put a good amount of peanut butter on the gum to cover it completely. You will rub it into the covered strands and the gum will start to crumble.
Oils Breakdown
The oil from the peanut butter will make the gum breakdown and lose its stick. The gum itself will start to ball up and fall out or be easily able to be pulled out. If the gum is still tacky apply more peanut butter to that area until all the gum is completely out. It may take a little while, so have patience.
Wash Up
Child playing
Once the gum is out, wash your hair. The oil from the peanut butter will also leave your hair in a beautiful, silky condition.
Remove Gum from Materials
This process can work on clothes too, except it can leave an oil stain on the material. I recommend if you are going to use peanut butter on fabrics wash out with a grease fighting soap or a dish washing foam. This should help with removing the oil from the fabric.
You can now chew gum, without the fear of the scissors or a buzz cut. After you do this yourself once or twice, lesson is usually learned; the gum will stay in the mouth or make it to the trash when you’re done with it.

Tips on Triggers: Constipation; Can’t Seem to Go #2?
Feeling bloated and unable to have a bowel movement, can be a bit uncomfortable. There is no reason to feel embarrassed by digestion issues. There can be several reasons that can cause the body to get stopped up, for example, a bad diet, a change in diet, a crazy schedule, medications or a number of others.
Softeners can help the system get back on track, but some people fear what can actually happen, if they’ve never taken the medication before. I recommend calling your doctor when thinking of taking any medication, to see if it is best for you, as an individual.
If your not comfortable with medications or they are not for you; the body does have a trigger point for helping with constipation.
Feel about 3 inches down from your knee cap. Use that point of reference and move to the outer side of the leg. There is where the trigger point is. Press and hold that spot for 5 seconds and release for double the time, then repeat the hold again. Repeat this process about 10 times.
Using this trigger point daily can be a useful aid to many stomach issues and help you keep the peace with going #2.
