INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To act silly around your boyfriend, stop worrying about what he thinks. Commit to being yourself instead of trying to change your personality for him. If he doesn't appreciate your genuine personality, he's definitely not worth your time. Make a list of all your strengths, and read it daily to give yourself a confidence boost. When you're feeling unsure, stop for a moment and remember a time when you felt super confident. Try to recall the sights, sounds, and smells of that moment. Bringing yourself back to a moment of high confidence can help you feel more confident in the present. Listen to some confidence-boosting jams! You can even make a "confidence playlist" to psych yourself up. Part of being silly is being completely present. Instead of worrying about being funny or saying the right thing, focus on having a great time with your boyfriend. If you feel yourself starting to worry, focus on your breathing. Then, bring your attention to what you see, feel and hear around you. Notice your boyfriend's smile, the feeling of his hand in yours, and the sound of his laugh. If you feel the urge to do something silly, do it right away. After all, being silly is about letting go. The longer you wait, the more likely you are to hold back. Try channeling your goofy inner child who doesn't care what others think. If you're sitting by the lake, start a splashing war! Propose an impromptu game of hide-and-seek or tag. While there's definitely a time for seriousness, there's also a time to laugh and be goofy. Not every conversation with your boyfriend needs to be deep and emotional. Having silly, lighthearted interactions is important for a strong relationship, too. Don't take yourself too seriously, either. It's ok to act like a fool sometimes. In fact, it can actually be pretty fun!

SUMMARY: Embrace your unique personality. Be present. Be more spontaneous. Don't take things too seriously.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In addition to pruning your spirea shrub, you might also consider dividing it. After a few years, shrubs like spirea can become a little lackluster. Dividing them at the root is one way to revive them and remove old growth. You'll also get more plants by doing this. A cloudy overcast day is a good time for dividing plants as the roots dry out too much in sunny hot weather once they are exposed above ground. Give your plant a good watering the day before you plan to divide it. The day after watering, dig out the plant and remove as much soil as possible from the roots without damaging them. A hosepipe works well for this. To divide your plant: Using something like a spade or saw, cut the root crown into quarters. Each piece should have a healthy bit of root and above-ground growth. Remove any old root sections at the narrow tip and get rid of any damaged roots or any parts of the plant that seem rotten. Give the parts of the plant above ground a prune when you do this, removing any damaged or dead growth and some of the thicker oldest wood stems. Replant the root sections and you'll have new, vigorous growth when the plant re-emerges in the spring.

SUMMARY: Consider dividing your spirea. Divide your spirea in the late fall when the plant is dormant. Divide your spirea. Give the roots a prune after you have divided them.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Tight clothes can cause chafing as your skin rubs against the fabric. It also causes you to sweat, which can make the chafing worse. Avoid wearing clothes that are resting directly on your skin. Wear reasonably loose-fitting clothes to avoid friction and give your skin time to heal. Avoid tight belts, tight underwear, and clothes that cause you to sweat. All of these are keeping your skin from breathing and can make your chafing worse. In the winter, you may want to do the opposite. Looser clothes may trap your body heat and make you sweat more. Wear cotton whenever you can. Fancy polyester shirts and denim trousers may be tempting, but they can trap heat and cause you to sweat which can trigger chafing. Cotton dresses, shorts, and shirts are easy to find in a variety of styles as well. Giving your skin room to breathe is the best way to give the skin time to repair naturally. In general, you should always choose materials that feel good against your skin. Avoid any materials such as wool and leather. Many people chafe between the thighs when they're running or working out. If this is you, pick up a pair of tight-fitting anti-chafing shorts. These shorts have padding for your thighs to keep the friction from doing damage. Since it's hard to let this area breathe, this is probably the best way to handle the irritation. The minerals and oils in your skin transfer to your clothing after you wear it. When you re-wear clothing, you're exposing your chaffed skin to those minerals and oils. This can irritate the skin and increase the amount of time it takes to heal.

SUMMARY: Wear loose-fitting clothing to keep your skin cool. Opt for clothes made of cotton or some other breathable material. Wear some anti-chafing shorts if the issue is with your thighs. Wash your clothes after wearing them once to avoid irritation.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fertilize your tree with 200g of ammonium sulfate fertilizer a month after you plant it and a month before the rainy season. Once the tree starts to bear fruit, you'll want to change the fertilizer you're using to a complete 14-14-14 fertilizer so that you can provide the tree with additional phosphorus and potassium. At the peak of fruiting, 2 kgs of 14-14-14 fertilizer should be applied annually. If you are growing your trees outside and there is regular rainfall, you won't need to water them regularly. If you're growing them inside or there is a dry period, however, you should use a watering can to water the plants every day. Keep the soil moist, but not overly wet. You can test this by poking your finger deep into the soil. If it's dry an inch under the surface, it's well watered. Once your tree grows to 1.5 meters (4.92 feet), cut off the top .5 meters (1.64 feet) of the tree. Your tree should be about a meter tall. This will promote the growth of your tree's branches and fruit. Remove dead or dying branches from your lanzone tree. You should also prune off clusters of flowers to promote the growth of the fruit. Harvest the fruit early in the day or later in the evening when the sun is not hot. Cut the fruit stalk with shears or a sharp knife. Do not detach the fruit's branch where it connects to the tree, or it won't be able to grow fruit on that branch in the future.

SUMMARY:
Fertilize your tree twice a year. Water the trees enough to keep the soil moist. Prune your lanzone tree. Harvest the fruit 140-150 days from flower formation.
