Q: e often. If you're not the tidy one in the relationship, an easy way to impress your girlfriend is to be better about cleaning up around the house. Start by just cleaning up after yourself: clean up your dishes immediately after meals, get that laundry off the floor, and so on. Then, move on to general jobs such as cleaning the bathroom every week or vacuuming. Any decent guy will do this already. Cleaning up after her is a given, of course. Saving her the time will only impress your girlfriend if you are usually a lazy slob. By cleaning like this, you will surprise your girlfriend by showing her your responsible side. Hopefully she already knows you have one. This applies even if you don't live together. You still spend time in each other's houses and taking responsibility - especially in a house that isn't yours - will really impress her. Take her somewhere that is beyond the standard dinner and movie. This will show her that you're creative and serious about her. Try to go somewhere you've never been or eat food you've never tried. Remember that expensive doesn't always mean good. A midnight picnic with hot home made soup and warm rolls and a beautiful starry night is inexpensive and romantic. You can try going on a geocaching date for something adventurous. See if there's an Ethiopian restaurant in your area. Ethiopian food is very different from Western food but still has some Western aspects; a great opportunity to try something new without dooming yourself to a miserable meal. Do things together; it does not have to be expensive. Even an evening walk together, or a bike ride, or a car ride to get ice cream can be showing you care for her and want to spend time together. When you take a real interest in the things that she cares about, you'll see just how happy she is. Educate yourself on her favorite hobbies, movies, music, or charitable cause. Read up using the internet as a resource and then follow it up with some real life experience. Ask if you can join her in one of these interests and make it a date! If you don't know what her interests are, that could be half your problem right there! Talk to her about what she is interested in--most women are more than happy to talk about this. Speak to her best friend, her mother, brother or sister if possible to find out more about your girlfriend's interests, hobbies and childhood passion. You might find out she always wanted a rocking horse as a little girl, you could take her to a toy museum for a fun date, buy her a print of a rocking horse, or just a card or even offer to go pony trekking. Finding out little details and building gifts or activities around them will impress. Women are attracted to guys that are willing to pursue their dreams and demand more from life --and fight to get it! Women are attracted to men that care enough about life to have a good job, or at least the goal to have a good job, rather than be a couch potato that they have to support. If you tend to be a little too complacent in life, try starting from scratch and pursue something that ignites your passion for life. Try a big life goal: a new career or go back to school, for example. Ambition can also be with an interest with goals. For instance, taking up a martial art, or learning to play guitar, or run a marathon. Ambition can also be helping others, such as volunteering for an animal shelter, tutoring seniors on using computers, or building trails at a local park. . Everyone likes to think they're a tiger in the sack (and sometimes it's true), but it can't hurt to do some research and try to improve those skills. You may learn a technique that really drives her wild that you never even knew about. Putting her pleasure first, before your pride in your skills, will impress her.
A: more often. Take her out on a great date. Experience and learn what she is interested in. Show some ambition. Improve your bedroom skills

Article: Most single family homes will have several outdoor power outlets installed. If you don't have an outdoor outlet, you will need to have an electrician install one. It is important to plan ahead when installing low voltage lighting so that you can avoid any potential problems, especially with the setup. Make a plan for where you want the lights to go and think about what kinds (and lengths) of connecting wires you'll need a head of time so that you can purchase the right materials and ensure your project will go smoothly. This step is important to help determine how much cord and what capacity transformer you'll need to buy. Draw the layout of the lights on paper, and take measurements outdoors to determine how much wire you'll need. Lights can be installed in several different configurations. The transformer will plug directly into the outlet, so it can be quite an eyesore. Try to pick an outlet that is on the side of the house or hidden by shrubbery. Depending on what kind of transformer you use, some must be mounted on the wall as well as plugged into the outlet. So keep this in mind as well.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Make sure you have an outlet available. Think about the layout of the lighting. Pick an outlet that is out of view, if possible.

Q: If you haven't heard from your friend in a while, give them a call or send them an email. Keep your tone casual, and don't mention that you're unhappy with the friendship. Just tell them that you miss them, and ask if they want to spend time together soon. You can say something like, "Hey, Anna! I haven't heard from you in a while, and I was hoping we could catch up sometime. Are you interested in getting lunch together this week?" If the person turns you down, wait a week or two and try one more time before you assume they aren't interested. No matter how much time has separated the two of you, it can be easy to fall back into old friendship patterns when you do something you once enjoyed. Consider this an opportunity to knock out two birds with one stone, per se. Reconnect with your old pal and rediscover an old past-time. Perhaps you and your old friend grew up near a stable. You can say, "Hey, it's been years since I've gone horseback riding. Why don't you join me?" A challenge is also a great way to strengthen an existing bond. Learning a new skill or hobby can help the two of you get closer. Reach out to your friend and suggest a new activity that you think you both would enjoy. For example, if both of you are relatively adventurous, you might ask, "I heard about a trail in the area that was just renovated. Want to go for a hike on Saturday?" This activity can also offer the two of you a chance to talk and/or sort out your differences. Your friend might want to hang out in a different environment or do a different activity than you're used to. Be open to their suggestions, and try out their ideas. If you're nervous about you and this person reconnecting, others can offer a great buffer. Invite several mutual friends over to your house for a game night, or out to an event in your town. Use the group activity to chat your acquaintance and remind them how much fun you can be. A group activity lowers the pressure that can be present in a one-on-one interaction. This is a smart route to take if you're unsure about why the person is losing interest in you. You can tease out information without any unnecessary tension. Don't complain to your friend or start calling them more often to make up for their lack of contact. This behavior will annoy them, and they will probably start avoiding you even more. Don't jump to conclusions. Your friend may just be busy. Act normal and see if the situation clears itself up. It will probably take several attempts and conversations before you can restore your friendship. Keep reaching out to them occasionally, but give them the time and space that they need. When you're around the person, act friendly and cheerful. Don't be passive-aggressive, even if you're feeling miffed about their lack of contact. Tell them you're glad to see them, but don't act like your happiness depends on their attention. You may want to think of a few topics to discuss ahead of time. This will help the conversation flow naturally. For example, you might discuss new hobbies, summer plans, favorite TV shows, or family news.
A:
Get in touch with the person. Invite them to engage in a favorite shared activity. Offer to try something new together. Plan a group activity. Avoid nagging or acting clingy. Be pleasant and upbeat.
