Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Request some notice. Embrace time limits. Designate policies. Establish consequences.

Answer: If the act of showing up announced bothers you more than the person's company, say something. It can be as simple as, "It's nice to see you, but I'd appreciate a phone call next time" or, "I'm happy to get together with you, but I'd like to know earlier in the day if you plan to stop by." If it's an enduring problem, make it very clear to the person you'd like some notice before they show up. For a more direct response, say, "I know you enjoy coming over here and I enjoy seeing you, but I dislike you dropping in. In the future, I'd like it if you called ahead of time to see if I am available." If someone invites themselves to stay with you for an indefinite amount of time, beware. Ask for specific dates. If the person needs some time to get on their feet or wants to stay until they find their own place, set some firm limits on how long you are willing to host them. You don't want them to wear out their welcome, so make sure you can enjoy them while they are there and not begin to resent them. If you know someone plans to come stay with you, you can say "Here's what we were thinking. You could come in on Monday, we can do XYZ activities, and then you can head out on Wednesday before we have to do (insert activity). How does that sound?" You setting up the timeline will prevent you from having to tell them no. Some say three days is the perfect limit for houseguests. Others extend their welcome to one week. Choose a limit that feels good to you that you know you can live with. If lots of friends invite themselves over or use your house as a place to crash, you might want to make some sweeping changes to what is and is not allowed. For example, if people want to use your home as a party center, make it clear that you are not okay with that and will not tolerate it. Make a policy that you are not open to host friends of friends. If people do stay at your place, say that you are not available to drive them or show them around town. Whatever policies you decide on, communicate them clearly to your friends. Say, "There have been lots of people over recently, and I find it really draining. I need to set some limits on what I can handle in terms of people coming over, including who comes over and what I'm willing to do." Make consequences clear to someone who doesn't see how they are affecting you. For example, if someone is at your door and you have asked them to leave yet they refuse, know what you will do or say to enforce yourself. You can say, "I've asked you to leave, yet you are still here. You won't be welcome to come over if this continues to happen." If the person is a nuisance, say, "If you do not leave within 5 minutes, I will call the police on you."

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Quit smoking Lose weight Wear loose fitting clothing. Change your usual sleeping position. Relax every day.

Answer: . Not only does smoking cause cancer and many other health problems, it may also be the cause of your heartburn. Smoking has been linked with heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Studies have found that smoking weakens the lower esophageal sphincter, which is the muscle that keeps your stomach contents from backing up into your esophagus. A weakened lower esophageal sphincter is more likely to allow stomach acids to escape and cause damage to your esophagus. Talk to your doctor about smoking cessation programs in your area, if you want to quit smoking. Try using the START acronym to quit smoking: S= Set a quit date. T= Tell friends and family. A= Anticipate challenges ahead. R= Remove tobacco products for home, work, and car. T= Talk to your doctor for more support. . Being overweight is thought to be a contributor to heartburn because the excess fat on your abdomen puts pressure on your stomach and may force your stomach contents back up into your esophagus. Studies have shown that a drastic weight loss is not necessary to help relieve heartburn caused by being overweight. Even a small weight loss, 5 to 10% of your body weight, may help relieve your heartburn. To lose weight, try to limit calories to 1800 to 2000 kcal a day, while also exercising for 30 minutes five times per week. You can use a fitness tracker or application to log your food and keep track of your activity. Tight pants and belts may be contributing to your heartburn by causing too much pressure on your abdomen and causing your stomach contents to back up. Make sure that your pants fit comfortably and that you do not wear your belt too tight. Choose clothing that is a size too big or that has an elastic waistband if your heartburn is severe. If you often suffer from nighttime heartburn, there are two positions that seem to be the most effective against heartburn: sleeping on your left side and sleeping with your upper body elevated. Try one or both of these sleep positions to see if either one helps to relieve your heartburn. Sleeping on your left side helps aid digestion. Try sleeping on your left side if elevating your upper body does not seem to help. Sleeping with your upper body elevated reduces the possibility that stomach acid will flow up your esophagus. Try using a wedge-shaped pillow to elevate your whole upper body. Using regular pillows will just elevate your head. Stress may contribute to your heartburn symptoms by causing your stomach to produce more stomach acid. Incorporating relaxation techniques into your daily routine, especially after you eat, may help to relieve heartburn. Try meditation, yoga, massage, aromatherapy, deep breathing, or something else to help yourself relax every day.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Clean the litter box. Monitor your cat's health. Provide a stable home environment.

Answer:
The most effective way to keep your home from smelling like cat urine is to prevent spraying in the first place. One of the best ways to do that is to make sure that your cat is happy with his litter box situation. Cats are very particular about their bathroom needs. If your cat is spraying, ask yourself if his box is clean enough. You may need to change the litter more often and scoop the box more frequently. If your cat started spraying after you switched litters, he may not like the new brand. Try a new product to see if he reacts more favorably to a different kind of litter. Consider getting another litter box. If space allows, give your cat another option for elimination. This may reduce his desire to go elsewhere. Most cats who spray are males who have not been neutered. It is a way to mark territory. If your cat has not been neutered, ask your vet about the procedure. It will likely stop the spraying. Cats may spray because of health issues. If this behavior is unusual for your cat, consult your vet to see if there is an underlying problem. Cats often spray because of stress or anxiety. For example, if you have recently moved or introduced a new pet into the home, your cat might react by spraying. Try to give your cat some extra affection. If the cause of anxiety isn't immediately evident, ask yourself some questions. Has your cat's routine changed? Is it possible that he is being bullied by another cat in the neighborhood?
